The narrator wakes up in the middle of the night. He's worried about what's going to happen to the team's new advisor. He wishes he had a real one, because he's tired of the old one. The first thing he does when he wakes up is complain about how long it'll take for the team to get ready for its training camp. He tells everyone to chill out, because it's only going to get longer. He also tells them that the upper-class guys aren't as hard-working as the lower-class kids. The narrator is glad he still plays rugby because he doesn't want to lose another game. The coach comes in and tells the narrator that the captain of the team has been talking trash about the new advisor, who used to be a player on the national team. The new coach tells the captain that if he keeps going like this, the team will lose about half its players by the summer break. He wants the captain to leave the team, since the only person with energy left on the team is the new coach.
