Jab

With her family facing eviction from their home, low-profile loner boxer, Bee Sondlo, makes a deal to come up with outstanding rent money in four days. Unfortunately, she has no other way to get it but to fight.

Bee's preparation for her first official fight is disrupted by Smiley's threatening insistence that she owes him another fight in his illicit league. As she tries to extricate herself, a confrontation with Sergeant plunges her into a deeper crisis than she ever imagined.

After her damaging participation in Smiley's fight league, Bee resolves to win back Conference's trust by dedication to winning a first competitive fight she still hasn't had. However, the only fight now available could end Bee's career before it starts.

After her dramatic win, Bee and Conference earns the support of a powerful women's boxing coach. Her ability to seemingly offer Bee the world is also, however, a devil's deal designed to pull her away from Conference.

Loyally proving herself fight after fight, Bee's boxing life is distracted by her estrangement from her brother. As financial difficulties threaten her academic future and Conference struggles to secure the title fight she needs, Bee decides it's time to reprioritise her life.

With her mother suspended from work, Bee's impatience with Conference's management of her career is validated by a new arrival who has been following her progress for a while: her father! Feeling increasingly sidelined, Conference forces Bee to choose: between his advice and her father's.

As Bee prepares for her provincial title bout as a prized member of Lavinia's stable, her father's support becomes a source of strength, just as - on the very day of Bee's title fight - Gladys's worsening problems become a source of irritation and distraction.

Smarting from her devastating defeat to Rushka, Bee realizes Lavinia has lost interest in her and earmarked a new contender. On Samkelo's advice, she accepts humiliating under-card money fights - but starts thinking about retirement.

Gladys helps save Lundi's life and Samkelo tries to convince Bee to accept Lavinia's offer to fight in the championship match.

As she helps Rushka prepare for her title fight, Bee's unsettled by the growing animosity of Mandla and Gladys towards Samkelo. Acting to mediate matters with her father, Bee discovers disturbing information that sparks a family crisis that reveals the full truth of her family's past.

Dr. Khan sees Gladys's progress at rehab. Kallie apologizes to Conference for their fight thirty years ago. Smiley sets up a sponsorship and looks to manage Bee in her quest for the title.

In the season finale, Bee tries to regain Mandla's support as she squares up with Lizelle for the national title. Smiley tries to prove to Bee that he can change his ways for her.
