Chapter 21 Summary

Bank returns late that night, very drunk. Bank’s dog joins Britt-Marie on the balcony to wait things out. Downstairs, Bank destroys every photo on the wall. The next morning, Britt-Marie cleans the kitchen, feeds the dog, and gives Bank the beer from the pizzeria, but warns her not to drink it immediately. Bank tells her that her father supported the Tottenham soccer team, not Liverpool.

At the pizzeria, Somebody gives Britt-Marie a letter about a coach’s license and registration; Britt-Marie ignores it. Sami and Psycho visit, though Sami notices Britt-Marie’s discomfort with Psycho. Britt-Marie does laundry at the recreation center and leaves Snickers for the rat. She hopes to see Sven, but he doesn’t appear.

During practice, Max arrives and asks to join the team. Vega refuses, but Omar agrees, as long as Max can steal the ball from Vega. He does; Vega slide tackles him in return. Practice is a success; though Sami doesn’t come, the team has a new member.
