Stories about the part after you lose
Sport shows up in this show at the exact moment it stops being fun. Nathan gets hit by a pitch in little league and is not sure he wants to play again. He stands at the bottom of a diving board at a pool party and cannot make himself climb it.
He is signed up for a school obstacle course he is convinced he is too slow for, and a karate test with a wooden board he is fairly sure will not break. Each of those turns into an adventure — a sea race, a moon park, a rainforest dojo, a flying grand prix — and each of them comes back to the same doorway it started at.
If you have a kid in a season right now who is having a bad week at it, these are the four episodes to put on in the car on the way there.
