Giuseppe Verdi's Rigoletto: more passion, intrigue, love, and cruelty at court. The curse is fulfilled!

Meet the characters from The Barber of Seville, an opera by Gioacchino Rossini that was first performed in 1816: brought to you by Anna and Marika.

Anna and Marika tell us the story of Rosina, who in the midst of deception and intrigue, ends up getting married. But to whom? The one she loves, or the one who wants her at all costs?

De Ponte is still intent on finding Caravaggio to arrest him. Fortunately, the artist has people who want to protect him and is taken by boat to Siracusa, where a friend takes him in.

Detective Lojacono is transferred to a police station that is considered to be the worst of the worst. Judging from his first encounter there, it seems he has his work cut out for him.

Detective Lojacono meets his team and learns why they talk about the "bastards." He also learns what the future holds for the police station.

Special agent Aragona read the files on all his colleagues and relates his findings to Lojacono. And we find out what Lojacono did, too. We also discover where he has his meals.

At the police station, Lojacono takes a phone call about a homicide. The team has been instructed expressly not to take on anything other than ordinary business. This is decidedly not ordinary business, but Lojacono is no ordinary policeman, apparently.

Lojacono has a careful look at the corpse and the surrounding area and draws some conclusions. His superior shows up and naturally wants to put Lojacono in his place, sending him right back to the station house, with the district attorney looking on.

Commissioner Palma is quite angry with Lojacono for disobeying his express orders not to handle any homicides. Meanwhile, a call comes in from a peculiar old lady and two agents go to check out her story.

Di Nardo and Romano decide to check out the apartment across the street, without much hope of success. That evening, there is news on TV about the murder and both Lojacono and the district attorney tune in from their respective apartments.

The DA has asked Lojacono to meet her for coffee. They joust a bit, but the DA has seniority and gets some answers from him.
