The food for the first round of the eating contest is boiled eggs, which are placed in front of a variety of condiments. Each competitor has to eat 40 of these eggs in 10 minutes. In order to win, he has to show his true strength by eating 50 of them. Thomas says that he can eat 50 if he wants, but the problem is that the yolk of the boiled egg makes it hard for him to eat the whites. If he can beat his opponent, he will be the champion.
