Ottavia and Palma talk about his new apartment and the fact that it is still empty. Lojacono gets some good news from his friend Paolo and shares it with Marinella. He goes to the train station to wait for Laura and gets an idea about the case.

Lojacono is not at all convinced that Varricchio killed his own children, especially after talking to him. Pisanelli got some bad news about another retiree having taken his own life. Pisanelli had been watching over the wrong home.

Lojacono follows Varricchio to his hotel to ask a few more questions, in private.

Marinella is shocked to hear on the news that a father might have killed his own children and she calls her father for some reassurance. The team goes to the funeral of Grazia and Biagio, in order to observe the behaviors of the various suspects and witnesses.

At the police station the team discusses the case and then they disperse. Lojacono sets up a date with Laura, Palma goes to his new place, Pisanelli goes to spy on his friend the monk, and Ottavia is working late at home.

At police headquarters, Guida is settling in to work on his puzzles, but someone with a familiar face walks in.

Palma and the team have just forty-eight hours to find Varicchio, the father of the two victims. Meanwhile, Palma has to buy furniture, Lojacono meets up with the DA, and Alex comes home late to an angry father.

Alex and Lojacono go to see Biagio's friend and colleague, Renato, and Renato's father, who had been Biagio's professor. Palma talks to his superiors, who want to get involved in the case to speed things along.

Alex's father isn't happy, but she manages to go out for the evening, to have pizza with Rosaria. Francesco is home watching TV, and doesn't seem happy.

From the results of the autopsy, there are no signs of rape, indicating that the scene was staged. Lojacono and Alex go to talk to Biagio's ex-girlfriend.

Lojacono asks Laura to go with him to question Nick again. They want to know why he hadn't told them about Grazia being a model.

Lojacono and his team go to talk to Grazia's agent, Mr. Cava. He provides some interesting information about Grazia. Ottavia goes home and tries to broach the subject of getting a dog for Riccardo.

Lojacono and Alex are able to interview Nick, who seems overcome with grief about his girlfriend's death.

When Lojacono gets home, he gets a video call from Marinella who has heard about the murder and is upset. The next day, Lojacono and Di Nardo go looking for Grazia's boyfriend at his workplace, hoping to get some useful information.

Lojacono and the others are at the scene of the crime trying to figure out how the murders happened. Back at headquarters, Palma receives more information about the family of the two victims. Later, Lojacono runs into Chanel on the street.
