Marie-Thérèse de Cuisse escapes from Rasheedia, but she is captured in France by Aziz Rassuf. She will help him conquer the city of Troussy-en-Cuisse for the glory of the Empire.
While he was savoring a piece of the delicious chocolate cake, he gave them the much expected signal to eat. Marie-Thérèse de Cuisse plunged her face into the bowl filled with leftovers from Aziz’s meal; within the same period of time, the Poulardes had barely begun to readjust their knee position on the cushions to be able to bend down forward! The white filly was digging with her tongue, and was skillfully throwing the food into her mouth with flicks of the tip, helping the movement with a stroke of the head, just like a dog. It was so impressive Aziz wondered if it were such a good idea to put that skilled filly in competition with his darling piglets… in the presence of such an expert, wouldn't the Poulardes feel lousy, tempted to throw the towel instead of beginning to try to fill the gap? According to the control agents, it would be exactly the opposite… and, once again, they were right: the three Poulardes suddenly plunged headfirst into their bowl, keeping their hands on their hips to imitate Marie-Thérèse de Cuisse. They were really bad at it, but Aziz couldn’t help being moved by the huge efforts they were putting in; Océane was making the food fall down before she could throw it inside her mouth with her tongue; Anaïs was slightly better, but when she tried to pull the tongue harder into the bowl to match de Cuisse's performance, some food was thrown on her face and she soon bore a piece of duck stuck along her nose; as for Corinne, she had a much smaller tongue and was throwing most of her dinner on the floor. De Cuisse finished very quickly, leaving a perfectly clean bowl.
