After Cioni has a little encounter with a watermelon, they go back to the apartment and talk about what to do with the stuff they stole. This leads to a conversation about why things went south between Ilaria and her ex-boyfriend.

In the area of the Nest targeted by the team, work is being done to eliminate the contaminated part. Riccardo urges everyone to take precautions and sleep with open windows if they cannot spend the night elsewhere.

Over breakfast, Riccardo and Eleonora discuss some environmental test results they are expecting, but are interrupted by Chiara and have to fudge. They also get some other worrisome news from Nicoletta.

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.

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.
