His old knee injury, which led to his pill addiction and prison sentence, was acting up again. The arrival of Drew Kimbro, a coach who was responsible for Bode’s high school injury, did not help. Drew's harsh coaching style pushed a young pitcher named Nolan into a dangerous situation, and Bode had to step up to save him, despite his own emotional turmoil.

Meanwhile, Jake tried to move on from his tragic past by getting back into the dating scene. He helped a cheerleader trapped in a mascot costume and hit it off with her older sister, Violet.

Manny tried to help him stay, but Birch's condition worsened, and he died before they could transfer him. The loss hit Manny and the entire camp hard, showing how high the stakes are for those trying to get a second chance.
