In front of Imma, Calogiuri, and Diana, Calenzano describes every detail of when he went to Stella's apartment to see her. He's distraught, as he relives the experience.

Matteo is at home with his uncle, doing a tricky jigsaw puzzle and ready for dinner. Even though it is clear to Matteo that his uncle is gay, his uncle is very uncomfortable talking about it. Matteo lets his uncle know that there is a girl he likes.

Calenzano felt the need to tell Imma and Calogiuri some details about his childhood in Switzerland so that they would be able to understand what had happened between him and Stella.

A colleague of Marioni's chides him for having treated Matteo as he did. He tries to justify his actions, and then goes to have a word with Rosario, a percussion student.

With Francesco Calenzano, whose nickname is Franco, Imma reminisces, in a friendly way, about the summers when they were younger and about the music they would listen to, notably, E ti vengo a cercare (I'll come looking for you).

Marioni puts Matteo to the test, asking him to play first violin in the Brahms symphony, together with the entire orchestra. Later, Domenico tells him about someone who had crumbled under Marioni's harsh treatment.

Imma clears up some more questions with Eufemia Abate about the person Stella was smiling at in the photograph.She has that person summoned for some questioning.

Matteo is having a violin lesson when Marioni passes by in the hall and hears him. Matteo's lesson ends early and he is about to learn more about the orchestra conductor everyone thinks of as il bastardo (the bastard).

Imma calls the beautician to the Prosecutor's Office, where she asks her some seemingly bizarre questions. Back home, Eustacchio's funeral is on TV. Imma's mind continues to focus on the events surrounding his death.

A teacher reads a passage from one of Shakespeare's sonnets and asks the class to interpret it. Matteo speaks up. Here is the original English: "Mark how one string, sweet husband to another,
Strikes each in each by mutual ordering;
Resembling sire and child and happy mother,
Who, all in one, one pleasing note do sing:
Whose speechless song being many, seeming one,
Sings this to thee: 'Thou single wilt prove none."

De Nardis ends up confessing to how things went. He is held responsible for both Stella's and Eustacchio's deaths. Imma is still perplexed, however.

Matteo arrives late for class and is told, to sit next to Sara who begins asking him questions. It turns out she is almost blind. After the lesson, Matteo meets some of his classmates.

Gaetano is leaving, ready to board his plane, but he clearly wishes Camilla would show up. Meanwhile, it is Potti's birthday and celebrations are going on at home.

Imma and Calogiuri enter the cave where the footing is uneven and the two are thrown together. The police have found the boy and De Nardis is called into headquarters for more questioning.

Matteo makes his way to his uncle's apartment. Never mind that his uncle was supposed to come to the station to get him... They agree that there is no point in worrying Matteo's father with the truth.
