After causing trouble, Dong-ju is demoted to the Insung Metropolitan Police Agency, where he's treated like dead weight and his fellow medalists also face discrimination; 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 medalists. Ready for a fresh start, each member joins with their own goals, but behind the creation of this special team lurks a hidden agenda.
Dong-ju seeks proof of Ju-yeong's involvement in the hit-and-run. Jong-hyeon investigates Gyeong-il's case at the Prosecutors' Office, while Ju-yeong has a secret meeting.

After Dong-ju's assault creates a crisis for the investigation team, Man-sik struggles to unite them. The team pursues Ju-yeong despite doubts, while she departs the hospital for parts unknown.
