After Kaibara wins the first round of the Ultimate VS Supreme Menu competition, Tōyama protests due to the high quality of his ingredients. Kaibara agrees to provide the same eggs to Yamaoka, who then remakes his dish using only egg yolks in truffle sauce. The judges declare the result a tie. Later, Kurita teases Yamaoka, claiming he truly lost because he modified his recipe after tasting Kaibara's dish. This interaction highlights the competitive tension and strategic adjustments made by the participants during the culinary contest.
