After causing trouble, Dong-ju is demoted to the Insung Metropolitan Police Agency, where he's treated like dead weight and his fellow world-class medalists also face discrimination and scorn. But when a major case erupts, it reignites the fire in their hearts.

At Man-sik's suggestion, a special criminal investigation team is formed with the former world-class medalists. Ready for a fresh start, each member joins with their own hopes and goals, but behind the creation of this special team lurks a hidden agenda.

Convinced that Ju-yeong is the hit-and-run driver, Dong-ju scrambles to find evidence. Meanwhile, Jong-hyeon heads to the Prosecutors' Office at Man-sik's request to investigate Gyeong-il's case, and Ju-yeong meets someone in the shadows.

The Special Criminal Investigation Team is now complete with Han-na's return and Jong-hyeon joining. They launch a full-scale investigation into Gyeong-il's death and Min Ju-yeong. As they split into teams and close in on their targets, Han-na receives her father's case files.

While investigating Ju-yeong, the Special Criminal Investigation Team is forced to hand him over to the prosecution after their sudden intervention. Dong-ju is hospitalized for tests following his car accident, and the team digs deeper into Ju-yeong's true identity and his connections to the prosecution.

Using Han-na's surprise kiss as an excuse, Dong-ju heads out alone with her on an investigation and discovers Ju-yeong's burner phone. Jong-hyeon finds himself growing uneasy as Dong-ju and Han-na get closer. Meanwhile, Drugmon, under surveillance in an apartment, begins plotting her escape.
