The team is encouraged to discuss problem areas they have and together they work through stretch exercises with Brittany. Serena arrives and is concerned about the activities in terms of possible injuries and lawsuits. Brittany involves Serena and invites her to lie on the floor and do a ‘Birthday Stretch’, much to the amusement of others in the team.  People have enjoyed the stretching exercises but Serena is really concerned about everyone getting back to work.
