Following the World Cup Bernardo returned to Seoul to prepare for the next season. Upon arrival, he found that his locker had been re-assigned without his knowledge!
"At least they could have told me I was fired before throwing away all my stuff!"
Bernardo went to complain, but the manager was absent (as usual), and eventually he found the janitor Kendrick Lamar who was still trying to resuscitate his career after a remarkably awful halftime performance at the Superbowl. Kendrick had been asked to box up the possessions of all the players who had been promoted to the first team in Cataluna, and Fry's gear had been shipped already.
"Impossible!" cried Fry, "I barely got any assists last season! I was promised more practice sessions and an easy season two in Seoul! Show me the list!"
Kendrick fished the list of players from his back pocket and Fry scanned the document, finding a mark next to each player to be promoted.
"Apollo Zervas - good choice... Ben Nelson - of course... and what happened to this list anyway, it's all stained?"
Kendrick: Spilled my coffee on it, still got the right players sent along
"Hardly!" roared Fry, wiping the smear of coffee grounds away from the line marked Bernardo Fry. "You've botched it! In no way was I supposed to be promoted early!"
Kendrick: Sorry sir, but your stuff is already in Cataluna - you're going to need to catch the next flight out there.
