They enter a brutal and magical badminton world, where competitors attempt to hurt them. Charly gets hurt and Stumpen teams up with Plet, the daughter of the villain coach Vincent… Charly learns that Vincent wants to kill Stumpen, but when he comes to help, Stumpen is kissing with his ex-girlfriend. The whole thing escalates with them teaming up again to beat Vincent.
