Viviana Varese, winner of the 2011 Gambero Rosso Prize "Best emerging young chef", shows us how to make a tartare of Fassone (Piemontese beef) – an elegant and very tasty dish!

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.

Monica Bellucci, the beloved Italian actor, is Fabio Fazio's guest on the talk show Che tempo che fa. Fazio's questions focus on Bellucci's aspirations from her childhood forward.

Martino (guitarist for the famous Italian singer Lorenzo Jovanotti) is having a rough time making his way in the pop music world and coming out of the shadows. Playing well isn't enough, and he isn't getting any help from the lighting crew or his own manager.

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.

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 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.

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 goes back home and finds his mother in tears in front of the TV. He thinks it's about him. He goes to see Peppino and wakes him up to tell him about an idea he has had. Peppino is not alone.

Martino goes to Peppino's house to tell him his great idea. Peppino is kind of busy, though... The local priest spies Martino walking home and engages him in conversation, which is the last thing Martino wants.

Peppino and Martino visit the old house of Peppino's late grandfather. The house is falling apart, but Martino thinks it's perfect for his plan. Peppino wonders if Martino is on drugs...

Martino is settling in Peppino's grandfather's house, trying to make it inhabitable. Peppino does something he thinks is essential for the cause, but Martino is devastated and tells him to leave.

Peppino goes to see Martino and tells him the truth: that no one in town noticed he was gone. He then does Martino another favor, similar to smashing his cell phone.

Finally, Martino's disappearance becomes known to the townspeople. He is the subject of Don Julio's sermon, and is even mentioned in the Bari newspaper. Martino is absolutely galled by how he's described in the newspaper.

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.
