In this chapter, we are introduced to George, a super-fast eater. He has just won an eating contest in which he had to eat five balls of noodles in seven minutes. George is furious that he has lost, and he demands to know why the shop does not have a second bowl ready for him to eat. George explains that he was the winner of the first contest, and that he accepted the handicap of eating the whole bowl of food for free. He asks George to eat two bowls of food and pay the shop's bill, but George refuses, saying that he does not need the charity of the shop. George, however, is not so sure. He argues that if the shop is free, then he should be allowed to eat the entire bowl, but if it is paid for, he will not be able to eat it. He suggests that they compete against each other over fried rice, and George agrees to do so. George tells George that if he wins the contest and pays for all the food, his name will be on the wall, and if he loses, he can take a picture of himself and put his name on it. George begins to worry that George has eaten all of the food in a short period of time. He wonders if he ate all of it, and wonders how he could have eaten so much in such a short time.
