Roberta, annoyed by Gaetano's behavior and the presence of the boy, decides to go home. Meanwhile, Camilla and Susy ask one of the students to trace the address from which Tucci sent the email, while Gaetano and the team listen to a wiretap and then head out to the source of the call.

Everyone is gathered to bring in the New Year, when, amid the exchanging of greetings, the police commissioner makes his entrance, surprising everyone with an unexpected announcement.

Gaetano returns to the police station with the kids. Meanwhile, Torre has carried out some checks on Tucci's secretary. Camilla shows up to pick up Livietta and share with her the sad news about Zuccotto.

Lojacono immediately goes to Laura's house, where she confides in him that she finally feels ready to take the risk and start a relationship with him, if he wants it too. Although Christmas has already passed, Marinella insists on wanting to put up the tree anyway, but just at that moment Giuseppe receives a phone call.

Camilla reports to Gaetano what she discovered by talking to Tucci's secretary and also explains her theory to him. Later, she goes to the dentist's office for a treatment, while Renzo is busy hunting for his blackbird.

The news that the kidnappers managed to escape taking little Dodo with them is spreading rapidly. While Lojacono is following the updates on television, his daughter surprises him with a visit.

After leaving Tucci's office, Camilla confides to Susy that she suspects Sabrina is friends with Taviani. Having driven Camilla to Livietta's school, Susy sees Berardi and fears another interrogation.

Pisanelli got ahead of Lojacono's team by entering the Intrasit warehouse before the others. When they all arrive, they recognize his car.

Camilla tries to convince Susy to get Tucci out of her head. He has disappeared but definitely left his mark.
