Peppino brings Martino some magazines singing his praises. But the two friends don't agree on what should happen next, and things get unpleasant.

Lorenzo is giving his mom the silent treatment and this is torture for Eva, who recognizes she was wrong and wants to talk about it. Eva gets some new information from Franco who is taking a look at Dante's motorcycle.

A famous TV personality arrives in Ginosa and wants to talk to Peppino of all people. She thinks she has him figured out.

Eva and Dante finally get some time alone at her apartment, now that Lorenzo has gone on a trip to Florence. That's their hope anyway.

While Martino plays his guitar for Sally, Peppino figures out that three's a crowd and leaves. Ginosa has become a bustling tourist town, and Peppino is back at work as a "tourguide."

Eva and Dante have a little competition going on whose dishes are more popular. Lorenzo shows up having made a decision Eva is none too happy with. A little crisis ensues.

Martino, Sally, and Peppino are watching the TV show Missing, where there is some news about where Martino might have been sighted. A very special appeal is made that's very disconcerting for Martino. Peppino is philosophical about the whole thing.

Eva goes to see Armando the mechanic, disguised as Franco's rich cousin. She intimidates him with her fancy language and manages to get the computer back. Franco has to find a job to pay his rent and tuition.

Peppino and Martino watch the TV show, and as Martino's story unfolds, Peppino has pretty much taken center stage and is basking in it. During the interview, he says things Martino is not thrilled about, to say the least.

If the girls thought the mechanic was bad news, they now discover he is extremely bad news. Eva and Lola go to the concert to see Franco's friend perform, but are greeted by a different scene altogether.

Martino has some awkward conversation with Sally. Meanwhile, word about Martino's disappearance has spread all over Italy, and as a result, the TV show Missing has come to town.

Eva goes with Lola to see about getting her car fixed. The head mechanic comes across as shockingly crass, but the assistant is nice and easily fixes the problem with the car. Lola can't help flirting with him.

Sally shows up at Martino's hideout and wants to know why he is faking his "disappearance." They share some food and some thoughts.

There's some tension between Dante and Eva but they get distracted by Lorenzo who shows up at the restaurant in high spirits. The chief of police, also in high spirits, stops by to report on having caught a corrupt contractor.

A big TV station comes to town and Peppino is interviewed about his missing friend. Martino has managed to set up a TV in the abandoned house he's living in, so he gets to see what his friend said about him.
