Football is back, and it's the first games of the season for Beverly and South Crenshaw. When South Crenshaw's latest addition - Khalil - remains sidelined, Jordan and Coach Bobby clash over his next steps. Elsewhere, The Eagles' devastating loss leads to finger-pointing from KJ. Later, Cassius brings KJ to a South Crenshaw game in hopes that Khalil's positive attitude will be a lesson to KJ. Finally, Layla offers advice to Coop about Amina, KJ seeks to right his wrongs, and Jordan makes a startling discovery.

Both Beverly and Crenshaw are on a hot streak in their respective games. Amina struggles with her decision to run for Stu-Co president when she discovers her campaign speech falls on a very difficult day. When Tori makes a pass at KJ, he finds his heart pulled in two directions. Khalil reckons with the conflict between his new life and his father's influence. Coop attends a law panel, and the professor's intentions might not be entirely professional. Cassius offers KJ fatherly advice. Finally, Amina catches KJ off guard with an interesting proposal.
