Mr. M waits in the place where he, Isabel, and Thami will practice for the competition. Isabel rushes in carrying her hockey gear. Mr. M asks her about the hockey game she has just come from and she talks expressively about how they lost and how it made her feel like hitting a girl with her hockey stick. They talk about being bad losers, with Mr. M confessing that he too can be petty when he doesn't win.
