Peppino brings Sally, the Latin American woman from the gas station, to the hideout, thinking he is doing Martino a big favor.

Peppino buys some groceries for Martino and Marti' is none too happy with the bill. He goes over what Peppino bought, giving the quantity as due and du' [short for due (two)] for the canned tomatoes, beer etc. Often, this due isn't a literal two, but means a small amount. You frequently hear the du' at fruit and vegetable shops or markets, where customers might ask for just a little bit of something, such as "du' ciliegie" [cherries]. The du' is also a polite way of preventing the vendor from heaping produce on the scale.

Martino and Peppino go to the Kursal, and as we could expect, finding Laura doesn't turn out so well. Martino has some hard thinking to do.

Martino finally goes home to his mother, and discovers that she watches the show Uomini e Donne (Men and Women) like everyone else, so she knows who Samantha is. Martino calls Laura, or tries to.

At the bar, Martino sees some old townsmen who tease him and tell him he should get a real job. One of the old guys mentions Fred Bongusto, an Italian singer known for a song "A Rotunda on the Sea". Martino and Peppino go off in a three-wheeled Ape (bee), a light commercial vehicle common all over Italy. Peppino cites Roberto Bolle, a famous Italian dancer, and Men and Women, a TV show for dating.

Martino was left at the train station, but he has to take the bus back to his hometown where he meets up with his friend. A song about wandering plays as he travels: "Vagabondo", sung by Nicola di Bari.
