Four weeks have now passed, and the three cousins are at each other's throats on the side of the road.

"How come we even joined this team?!" asked Tafu.

"Our dads even hated this sport," said Sumāto.

"But they grew to love it, and our goal is to beat them and win the Christmas Bowl," said Amai.

"And how do we do that when we don't even have a training method to get stronger, not to mention the fact we're always fighting!" said Tafu.

"We need to find something that they are not good at," said Amai.

"And what would that be?" asked Tafu.

"Team work, our dads lose their team work skills to easily because they are so easy to tick off," said Sumāto.

"Question now is how we take and train ourselves for it when we're in the same boat?" said Amai as she held her chin while thinking.

"What about the number one competition that requires team work?" asked Tafu as he looked at some ropes.

"A three-legged race," said the other two. The three then tied their legs together with Amai in the middle.

"This is kind of weird," said as they struggled to move.

"We'll get used to it," said Amai who had her arms around their shoulders for support. As they moved, they started getting in sink before tripping.

"I hope we get use to this quick," said Sumāto as they stood up.
