COO Lindiwe Mkhwanazi is fired by the federation after secretly entering the South African women's boxing team in a Nigerian tournament, but she uses the media to fight her way back.
Lindiwe is blindsided when the federation withdraws financial support, Jacob offers to help Lindiwe in exchange for a sexual favor, and Dingaan faces an imminent eviction.
Lindiwe helps Dingaan buy back his grandmother's house, and Noks and ex-con Crystal join her growing team, but Frans sabotages their efforts by using Dingaan's dark past against him.
The community erupts in outrage when they learn Dingaan will be coaching Team South Africa, Jabulani leads a protest for Dingaan's removal, and Noks speaks on the power of forgiveness.
Frans fights fire with fire when Lindiwe gets him suspended, Crystal grows suspicious of Sindiswa's inconsistent stories, and Noks awkwardly kisses Lwandle to prove she's not a lesbian.
The boxers deal with the aftermath of Frans's vengeful actions, Sindiswa faces a dangerous figure from her past, and Lindiwe reveals her father's role in her breakup with Dingaan.
Dingaan steps in when Lwandle is attacked by a drug dealer, Sindiswa returns to a criminal interrogation, and Noks offers video proof to clear the others.
The team is reinstated for the Nigeria tournament, Sindiswa battles trauma, Sma responds to Noks's crush on her, and new evidence challenges the girls' self-defense claim in Dimitri's death.
The team's celebrations are cut short by a rival team's dangerous stunt and a shocking twist in the police investigation into the actions of the women.
