Crystal Cox, a strong, independent young woman from the slums of Harlem, dreams of becoming an Olympian someday. Of course, she's just a young urban girl, so nobody, including her boyfriend Gervase and her younger brother G-Sizzle, thinks she can make it, but she works her butt off to prove herself.
Crystal begins to train with the help of her crusty old coach, Artis, whose own dreams of Olympic glory were shattered, along with his kneecaps, by a group of young white punks (played by the Kimba tribe). Artis puts Crystal through a lot of tough tests, including forcing her to eat nothing but rice. Crystal is also helped out by her inspiring one-legged best friend, Kelly.
Eventually, she makes it to the Olympics, and blows the competition away - despite the best efforts of a crooked (but devilishly handsome) judge, Jed, who continually ranks her low. Luckily, the other judges are Ted and Ghandia, who are fair and don't let Jed's bias ruin Crystal's chances.
Against all odds, Crystal manages to fight her way to a gold, whereupon she is promptly disqualified for illegal drug use. Of course, Crystal never took any 'roids, and it turns out that the drugs were planted in her bag by locker room attendant RC Saint-Amour. Crystal goes to question RC, but finds her strangled to death in the locker room.
On trial for murder, Crystal enlists the help of police officer Osten Taylor, who does some digging and uncovers a massive string of Olympic rigging, paid for by the evil racist playboy Colton, because he's just such a dick that he doesn't want black people to win anything. It turns out that Colton's being pulling this crap for years, and not only has he killed people like Big Tom, Shii Ann, Colby, Nate, Yasmin, and Holly to cover up his evil deeds, but he's also the one who hired the Kimbas to break Artis' kneecaps all those years ago.
Using the evidence that they've fond, Crystal is able to prove her innocence, but is unable to convict Colton, on account of him bribing the judge with his country-club millions. Crystal decides to take the law into her own hands, and she, Gervase, Osten, Kelly, and Artis team up to take Colton and his whiteboy posse down and blow their place up with dynamite. A glorious battle is fought, which ends with Crystal breaking Colton's kneecaps, tearing Colton's appendix right out of his body, and throwing him into a fireplace, which symbolically burns him until he turns black.
Crystal lights the dynamite, walks out of the burning house with her group like a boss, and the house explodes.
End credits. So, using Colton's plot post and get it all in one spot again (and I added kneecaps, dynamite, and a possible fate of Crystal's posse since that wasn't in there), is this all we need for the script? Should we have a character list too? The challenge thing says we should write the characters' motivations, but those kind of get covered in the plot summary.
