After being challenged by Tokyo Sport University's Sakaki, Kakeru and the other residents of Chikusei-so have grown closer.
As they celebrate the renewal of their resolve, King comes home wearing a suit for a change.
Meanwhile, Kakeru voices his objections to participating in a track meet so soon.
What point is there in forcing the amateurish residents to face reality?
In response to Kakeru, Haiji asks his own question.
Kakeru's doubts remain unresolved as Haiji begins holding proper practices.
However, King refuses to participate because he's busy looking for a job...
Under a cloud of anxiety, their proper training begins.
Could you please not treat us
like we're on the same level?
هل لك ألّا تعاملنا وكأنّنا في نفس المستوى رجاءً؟
Würdest du uns bitte nicht
im selben Atemzug erwähnen?
¿Al menos podrías dejarme meter
en el mismo saco que él?
¿Al menos podrías dejar me meterme
en el mismo saco que él?
Tu veux bien arrêter de nous mettre
dans le même panier ?
Potresti almeno smettere di trattarci
 come se fossimo allo stesso livello?
Pode por favor me tratar como se eu
fosse do mesmo nível que este aqui?
Будь добр относиться ко
мне не как к собаке.
