Michele goes to see his daughter in her quarters. He then goes around trying to assure some positive votes for the evening assembly.

Nora and Ugo continue learning more details about the wedding, which is becoming more and more complicated. Melody is walking with Manrico to his place for dinner when she decides she wants to hear some poetry.

One of the patients has a curious conversation with his doctor about diet.

Nicoletta shows Michele around but he is less than impressed. His attitude and reputation aren't going to be much help to him when they vote him in or out that evening. Michele's lawyer comes to see him.

Manrico is back, wanting to get some intimate time with Melody. Nora goes to see Roberto about the Ethiopians, but he was hoping for an answer from her.

Luigi can't wait to get out of the hospital and is dreaming of drinking a toast once he's out. Amed puts on the brakes right away.

Signor Venturi is taken to il Nido (the Nest). Although he is glad to see a familiar face upon arrival, he is not quite ready for what awaits him.

Nora is about to go jogging with Uno, but there is a crowd of people at the gate to the villa. What's going on?

Luigi makes it all the way to the bar, and once there, it is as his roommates predicted. He doesn't know what to order. He reflects on what metterci la testa (putting one's mind to it) means for him.

Signor Venturi is enjoying some intimate time with a lady when the police show up with a search warrant.

A patient's hemoglobin count is very important. If it's high enough, a patient can make it to the hospital bar. But then?

Stefano seems to have forgiven Maria Chiara for that kiss, but has he forgiven Ugo? Roberto shows up at the wedding reception to talk to Nora a tu per tu (privately). This is grammatically wrong, but is an expression people use to mean "face-to-face" or "one on one."

The doctor and Luigi finish discussing the results of his exam. The message is always the same, however. One step at a time. Captions 6-8 are a great example of how lei can mean different things and cause confusion.

Stefano and Maria Chiara bare their hearts to each other. Dino sees Manrico kissing Melody.

One doctor chooses to recite Baudelaire rather than listen to his patient. Luigi gets the results of the histological exam.
