Soma and others arrive in Hakodate. The 1st exam shortly begins; however, they are already facing the interference from the Central Gourmet Organization…!
salmon at the end of their 
strength after spawning eggs,
سمك سلمون بعد أن بذل كلّ 
،طاقته بعد وضعه للبيض
Lachs, der am Ende der Laichzeit entkräftet
und geschmacklich am schlechtesten ist.
Des saumons épuisés
après la ponte,
Sono salmoni stremati dalla deposizione
delle uova, quelli dal sapore peggiore.
O salmão já sem forças,
depois de botarem seus ovos
она отложила икру и потеряла все силы.
