Half a hot dog
The main character, David, loves
professional eating, and he finds half a hotdog that a professional eater couldn't eat in an online store called BuyBuy. He is only willing to pay a max of 20$ for it so he sets his max bid on the auto-bid to 20$ with his mom's credit card and walks out of the room. Later he checks his computer and finds out he accidentally bid 2000$ and won. He is horrified and tries to cancel it but he can't so he puts it up for auction and hopes someone buys it. -
Sliders
David's friend tells him that there is an eating competition that he wants David to compete in to win 200$. David agrees and his friend comes over with a bunch of Sooper sliders so David can practice. During the event, David barely ends up winning because he gets into the flow of scarfing down as many sliders and water as he can. After he won he realised that the prize money was actually a Sooper Slider gift card. He heads home feeling sad trying to think of another way to get money. -
Shhh....
David's hot dog arrives so he has to hide it from his parents. Later he tells his friends what he did -
Crust
David goes to his favorite pizza shop to sign up for an eating competition they're hosting for $5000. After signing up, he orders two pizzas and times himself eating them, but one of the crusts willn't budge and go down his throat. It ends up scraping the side of it, so he decides to head home to relax for a bit. He realizes that anything that goes down his throat feels like trying to swallow fire. He is worried he won't be able to compete in the competition. -
Real or fake?
David's friend Cyn started looking into the person who sold David the hotdog and she's starting to suspect that the hotdog isn't the actual hotdog its pretending to be. -
Bill
The Visa bill arrives and David hides it behind the counter until he gets the money. -
Qualifier
It's the day of the contest qualifier and all the contestants get served a big pizza that has breakfast, lunch, and dinner in one slice. David ends up scarfing down almost all of it and ends up qualifying with another person called Agon Belt. He is stoked but feels incredibly sick so he has to lay down in the grass so he doesn't throw up. -
The Truth
David's mom finds out the $2000 was charged to her account. David confesses what he did to his family, and they obviously get mad. However, David's little brother starts having a meltdown, so they have to calm him down. They are all too tired to do anything after that, so they go to sleep. During the night, David repairs to go to the contest anyway without telling them right away. -
Cheater Part 1
The contest starts and David starts eating the pizza as fast as he can dunking it in water every so often to make it go down his throat. He notices that the guy who sold him the hotdog (we'll call him Surge) is holding what looks like a squeeze bottle in his hand. A few seconds later the other person next to Surge threw up. Surge accidentally drops the squeeze bottle onto the stage and when he isn't looking David squeezes all of it onto Surge's pizza. Soon after Surge starts throwing up. -
Cheater Part 2
There is still one other person left. David starts giving up but then he hears his brother, Mal (who has only said "Okay" before) start screaming "Go David go!" This gives him a burst of energy and he ends up eating 50 pizza slices. He wins the money and heads back home feeling sick. -
Should I?
David sees the person who sold him the hotdog competing at the contest and he is conflicted about whether he should confront him. -
The end
David decides to give half the prize money to the other contestant who got "poisoned" by Surge because he was the only reason David qualified. THE END
