Vitali interrupts his meeting when Romaniello shows up at the office and makes a suggestion for getting rid of some dead weight in the department.

Imma searches for information about the earthquake of the 1980s and among old newspaper articles, Antonio Scaglione's name appears. She decides to go visit him.

Imma presents herself to Scaglione and tells him everything she knows: what she has discovered and what she suspects about the contaminated lands and Don Mariano's death. She doesn't have proof of what she's saying yet, but she has no intention of stopping.

During the chat with Scaglione, Imma has some questions about his past and a certain name comes up. Later, Imma goes to see an old friend of her mother's, to try to make sense of what she has learned.

Imma receives a package containing Don Mariano's tablet. The note inside says that the tablet contains all the evidence that Don Mariano had collected.

Imma summarizes with Calogiuri how things went regarding Don Mariano's death and, reconstructing the events, decides to send some notices to those involved.

The day of the Bruna festival has arrived, but Imma and Calogiuri are finishing up their work in the office. Once finished, Calogiuri expresses to Imma everything he thinks and feels, much to Imma's surprise, who thought he was a man of few words. At a certain point, he says the same thing twice, but switches to addressing her informally. Details matter sometimes!

Imma rushes to join her husband and daughter on a small terrace they have likely rented, to watch the Bruna festival, and in that instant, she receives an important text message. Meanwhile, Valentina goes to greet Samuel, who confesses a secret.

Doctor Vitali is standing on the balcony next to the one where Imma and her husband are watching the procession, and he takes the opportunity to talk about work.

Il Commissioner Manara is an Italian TV series set in the Maremma (southern Tuscany), which centers on Luca Manara, an unorthodox and highly seductive, newly arrived police commissioner, played by Guido Caprino.

Commissioner Manara arrives on the scene of the supposed suicide. He questions a witness, and talks to the victim's doctor, and to the medical examiner, who turns out to be an attractive woman who has no problem with shyness.

Manara meets his new boss and from the outset there's tension. We learn that Manara was transferred to his new post because of an affair between Manara and the wife of his former boss.

Commissioner Manara meets up with Lara Rubino, his old classmate from the police academy. She's less than happy to see him and slaps him right across the face.

Rubino, the new inspector, can't stand being in the same room with Manara. And when he doesn't even remember why, she really gets angry. But then they get some interesting news from the morgue...

Manara arrives at his hotel, and the clerk is curt with him until she learns he's the new commissioner. Manara and the deceased are the topics discussed by Rubino and her aunt.
