Carmen decides to organize a fancy dinner evening, but Xavier fails as chef and the entertainment he found, his garrison's military band, pleases even less then their menu and service. Meanwhile Boma takes Pascake along ti the eat industry's annual gala where he's ti speech, but she finds the fancy setting doesn't come with gentlemanly manners.

Two talent scouts tell DDT they heard De Kampioenen have a fantastic player and they want to buy him for their team. DDT sees an opportunity to make some money and, finally, get rid of De Kampioenen because he knows that without soccer ace Pol, they're lost. DDT tells the talent scouts he'll arrange the deal. However, despite the money he can make and the good team he can be in, Pol doesn't want to leave De Kampioenen because they're his friends. DDT doesn't understand this at all, but it does give him an idea: To sow discord, he starts spreading the rumor Pol has made some vile remarks about the team.
