Six familiar faces arrive at Steinar Sagen's scout camp, hoping to collect as many scout badges as possible. As scout leader, Steinar shows no mercy, and throws the freshmen straight into the competition. Who deserves the Knife Mark, and how does the gang handle an extraordinary bicycle accident in Maridalen?

Every scout must know his history. Steinar causes dissatisfaction among some scouts, when the patrols have to perform their own version of the game about the holy St. George. There is drama as one of the scouts injures himself with a primitive weapon, and in the marking ceremony one of the participants drops a bomb.
