It's the second day of the Futsal tournament, and Eiji and his friends are hanging out on the sand court. Eiji complains that he's too hot and tired to play. He wants to go inside so he can get some fresh air, but he can't because of the heat. He's also worried about his endurance, so he asks his friends to run for him instead of running for the other team. They all agree that they're going to start running for each other tonight. They're all psyched to meet each other, so Eiji tells his friend, "Hey, hey, hey kun - are you sure that this is what you're doing?" . He also tells him not to worry about what the heck is going on with Tsukushi, because he'll win the game. He tells Eiji to go for it, and Tsuku tells him to get back out of the way so he doesn't look like an idiot. They both agree that it's cool that he stayed behind after school to practice every day, and that he hasn't given up on his goal. They also agree that the rain didn't let up all day, so they all go out and try to play some more. They don't have much luck, though, because they've been running hard all day.
