We are familiarizing ourselves with the young Leyla and her family in Istanbul. The story of Rutger's past and his unfortunate deed is being revealed by media, which has a surprising outcoming. Just like Guus, Rutger will fly a F-16: his lifelong dream. Leyla's dream falls to pieces.

The conflict between Russia and the Netherlands ends in a cold war under a hot sun. Rutger and Guus go on a mission to Syria, where they are under great pressure. Guus saves Rutger through a brilliant maneuver with his F-16 but is shot down himself. Will he survive?

In Syria, everything that is available is being used in order to locate Guus. He seems to be alive and is captured by a group of rebels. Everything comes together in a blood-curdling apotheosis. Rutger ends up in a dangerous situation which will make clear whether he is a real hero or simply a loser.
