The Ember Boxing Gym faces eviction by a rival claiming 'the strong win, the weak lose.' Aylin apologizes to her students as they prepare to leave. Joe, a former student indebted to Aylin for saving his life, breaks his vow never to fight without reason to protect her. He challenges the arrogant boxer, insisting that to claim victory, the man must defeat every willing gym member, starting with him. Mocked as a 'half-baked brat,' Joe demands a fight or an apology, forcing the rival to accept the challenge to teach him a lesson.
