Jitka Pazoutová is not doing well at physical education. She is fat and clumsy and often gets laughed at because of her look. Back at home in the cellar, she practices her hits for a pig-in-the-middle game by throwing a ball at the PE teacher's name she has written on the wall. Thanks to all her practicing, Jitka is getting better at pig-in-the-middle and the PE teacher includes her in the team for the tournament.
