The chapter opens with a discussion of the pros and cons of professional eating contests. It is clear that the pros do not have the same level of skill as the amateurs. The pros eat without using any technique, whereas the amateurs eat at their own pace. This results in the pros eating with their eyes closed and eating silently. This is the first time that a pro eater has won a professional eating contest, and the pros are amazed at the pro's skill. They are sure that the pro will be the next to win a professional contest.
