The first episode, entitled "Principles," features insights into a somewhat different pre-season preparation for FC newcomer Dejan Ljubicic and the training camp in Donaueschingen, among other things. In addition, Mark Uth was wired in the 3:2 test match win against FC Bayern. Head coach Steffen Baumgart also gives a deep insight into the world of his principles and shows them in his speeches to the team, which have already influenced the outcome of the game in the cup match in Jena.

The episode, titled "On the Way," shows the ups and downs that FC head coach Steffen Baumgart has experienced with his team in recent weeks. The development of the club is touching: Whether it's Vice President Eckhard Sauren, consultant Erich Rutemöller, Süddeutsche reporter Philipp Selldorf, rapper Marteria, presenter Micky Beisenherz or returnee Mark Uth - the fascination of FC grips them all.
