As the girls of Lambda sorority make their way towards the finals at this year's national stepping championships, dedicated team captain Destiny (Faune Chambers) attempts to keep her team focused on victory despite attempts by her scheming rival Pam (Angell Conwell) to prevent them from taking the top prize. Destiny is the kind of team captain whose enthusiasm is infectious, yet lately her spirits have been slightly dampened by her former friend and current nemesis Pam. Pam is intensely jealous of the Lambda girls' immense talent, and she's willing to do whatever it takes to undermine the team's confidence. As if keeping her team on the path to victory isn't job enough for the perpetually perky Destiny, she's also working overtime to win the heart of her longtime love interest Fabian (Bryce Wilson). Will Destiny endure and astound the judges at the national stepping championships while laying the groundwork for true romance, or will dark cloud Pam prove effective in preventing her old friend from dancing her way to greatness. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Not only that, but his annoying neighbor Malika is all grown up, and still as contentious as ever. Despite the fact that Trump and Malika can't seem to agree on anything, a tenuous friendship begins to develop between the mismatched pair as Malika does her best to help Trump win back his wayward fiancée. A softball game, a fish fry, a charity bachelor auction, and a fashion show later, the dejected Trump begins to realize that the girl of his dreams may have lived next door all along. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

But Yasmine is tired of watching her girlfriends get married while she watches on the sidelines, and one day she gives Kwame an ultimatum -- either he marries her in 30 days, or she'll never see him again. Kwame isn't sure what to do; while he loves Yasmine, he also likes his freedom, and paying a visit to his buddies who've tied the knot hardly makes marriage look like an attractive proposition.
