The pressure piles on Helena as the first game of the season approaches. With all eyes on Helena a good result would give her a flying start but her star young player may not be ready yet. When the time comes Helena must make a choice, to chase victory by forcing Adrian onto the pitch too soon, or accept defeat and give Adrian the space he needs to rebuild his confidence.

The second half of the hard fought local derby is just about to begin when Helena receives word that Eivind, one of her key players and strongest supporters, has a wife about to give birth in the hospital.
