Sunshine - Episode Guide

A high-stakes crime drama that explores the hopes and heartbreak felt by those forging a new life in a foreign land. Set in Melbourne's outer-west suburb of Sunshine, the story follows Jacob Garang. Jacob is a young, aspiring South Sudanese-Australian basketball player whose dreams of climbing his biblical namesake's ladder to heaven, the American National Basketball Association, hang in the balance when he's drawn into a criminal investigation. Police are hunting down the perpetrator of a violent assault, which has left a young teenage girl in a coma fighting for her life, and a group of young men fighting for their innocence.

Eddie is now the official Sunshine Kings coach and he proves a tough taskmaster. While Jacob sweats on the police investigation, knowing a criminal record would destroy any chance he has of playing basketball in the US, Zara begins to turn a suspicious eye to Dazzler.

Eddie is the king of Sunshine, coaching the team on a winning streak into the finals. Meanwhile, Zara continues to uncover pieces of the puzzle about the night in question. Jacob earns his golden opportunity to impress the US talent scout, but the criminal investigation might place his future in jeopardy.

Relations between Jacob and Eddie remain strained amid premiership celebrations in Sunshine. The arrival in town of a talent scout from the US convinces Eddie that he must face up to the mistake from his past in order to heal the wounded Jacob and free him to perform at his best.
