تنقلب الرحلة البحرية الترفيهية لاختبار نجاة مفاجئ على جزيرة مهجورة، تتلقى الفصول قواعد الاختبار بينما يناضل كلّ منها للصمود وجمع أكبر عدد من النقاط

At the start of the second term, preparations for the sports festival begin. The students are nervous about the fact that performance in the events will affect their written tests, and even more pressure is added by the unique team breakdowns and freedom given to the students to decide who takes part in what event.

Class D prepares to face their next major challenge, a test called "Paper Shuffle" where the price of failure is expulsion.

Horikita decides to use Paper Shuffle to settle matters with Kushida, and Ayanokoji finds himself caught in the middle.

As the day of the Paper Shuffle draws near, the plans of the various forces in play collide.

Ayanokoji receives a visit from outside the school, and learns more about the conditions of his stay.

Karuizawa, whose cooperative relationship with Ayakoji has ended abruptly, cannot hide her embarrassment at the complete loss of contact with him. As Class D discusses their plans for the future, Ryuen and the other members of Class C appear overbearing.

Ayanokoji makes his final decision on how to deal with Ryuen and the Class C threat.

Ayanokoji's class embarks on their first trial as the ascended Class C, the mixed training camp.

Turns out the one spreading the rumors was Hashimoto, who did so at the behest of Sakayanagi. Shortly thereafter, Sakayanagi appears before Class C and she informs them she has evidence regarding the rumors about Ichinose.

Everyone in Class C has passed their year-end exam. While relief flows through the classroom, Chabashira announces a special exam. It will be a class vote to choose three people worthy of praise and three worthy of censure.

With the approaching class vote, a disturbing atmosphere hangs over Class C and fills them with suspicion. Second-year Class A's Asahina informs Ayanokoji that Ichinose has asked for cooperation from student council president Nagumo.

After conversing with her brother Manabu, Horikita offers Yamauchi name as the one who should be expelled. Not only has he made few contributions to the class, but he also worked with Sakayanagi in Class A to expel Ayanokoji.

The class vote has seen the first student expelled from Class C. Sakayanagi meets up with Ayanokoji and they're approached by a man named Tsukishiro sent by Ayanokoji's father. Afterward Ayanokoji challenges Sakayanagi to compete on their next exam.

As Hirata recovers and the class shows unity, it's finally Ayanokoji vs. Sakayanagi. The final special exam has begun and the first round is basketball. Class C puts up a good fight, but Sakayanagi plans to mentally shake Sudo so he will fall.
