The village of Ofu-Obodo is plunged into an epic battle as the great masquerade of Aniedo clashes with the formidable Okwudike. In a dramatic showdown, Aniedo emerges victorious, but victory comes at a grave cost for Muna.

After Eze Dibia's death and the market site tragedy, Zina appeals to the spirits to select another fitting candidate to become the new Masquerade following Muna's decision to drop his title. While he no longer wants parts, as everyone sees him as incompetent, Zina forces Muna to participate in the Masquerade selection.

Afam is facing challenges organizing Ndidi's burial, and to add to the chaos, Muna gets into a fistfight with Onyeka. Meanwhile, a quarrel erupts at the women's meeting.

Tired of being his family's breadwinner and running his father's business, Abaeze lashes out at his parents, startling them. Muna also runs from his post as a vigilante when things get heated.
