Toscani knows he's doing a good job, but is frustrated because Manara doesn't ever acknowledge it. Meanwhile, Luca must have an idea since he goes prancing around the office. In fact, he knows exactly what he's doing.

Luca finds out some important information from the housekeeper, and he also finds out, quite by accident, about Lara's course in Milan.

The case is discussed at the dinner table among Lara, Luca and Aunt Caterina. As usual, Caterina knows a lot about the people involved. She also gives Lara some advice.

Lara has a hard time resisting Luca's charms. Sardi and Toscani don't seem to be on the same wavelength. But somehow, they are getting closer to having some interesting information, if not concrete evidence.

Lara is doing some thinking, and confides in Sardi. Meanwhile, there is a definite lead in the case about the burglarized villas.

Luca is acting a little strange and Ginevra doesn't help things. Meanwhile, there has been some mysterious activity over at the nursery.

Not much information is cropping up from the investigation, but Lara has an unusual meeting with Casadio.

It's a busy day for the police. A prime witness ends up in the emergency room at the hospital, and there have been three burglaries, one after another.

A romantic moment gets rudely interrupted by another murder. But do Luca and Lara have the same idea about living together?

Even though the case has been solved, Luca gets yelled at by Casadio. To understand their parting words, there's an idiomatic expression to learn. Chi va con lo zoppo impara a zoppicare (He who goes around with a lame person learns to limp). A similar expression in English is "bad company brings bad habits."

The truth surfaces, and we see a flashback of the fatal event. It's a painful moment for everyone involved.

The race ends, and Manara discovers what he came to find out. He also discovers that Lara is a very capable cop.

As expected Manara's boss doesn't give him permission to infiltrate the race. Do you think that will stop him?

Luca questions Lupo, and figures out how to find out for sure who murdered Gabriele, but as usual, he's immune to warnings about how dangerous it will be.

There's some girl talk between Lara and Sardi, Luca is not a great dinner guest, and Buttafuoco and Barbagallo make an interesting discovery.
