La ladra (The Thief) is a television series starring Veronica Pivetti, who plays Eva Marsiglia, a high level chef. But that's not all she does!

A man walks into the restaurant Il Frutto Proibito (Forbidden Fruit) sure that Eva will hire him as a cook, but before she can even think about it, she gets called away to take care of a situation with her son, Lorenzo...

A very exacting client and a very special dessert are the stars of this segment. Don't miss it!

As Spada gets ready to drive away with his fiancée, he gets accosted by a woman, who clearly knows him, and who needs money for her little girl. Someone ends up on the roof, ready to jump, and of course, Eva can't just stand by and watch.

Eva proves to be a woman of action, courage, and kindness.

While celebrating Andreina, the pharmacist's birthday, some interesting facts come out.

It's a busy night. Eva thinks her son is sleeping, and talks to him, but he's wide awake and still full of adrenalin. Then she gets a surprise visit!

Valeria spills her story to Eva, who decides to try and help her.

At the market, Eva learns some interesting things about Dante, the man who applied for a job as cook. She also learns a thing or two about Spada, the wealthy entrepreneur, and, knowing Eva's past, we can just imagine the wheels turning in her head.

Eva has a heart to heart talk with Cary Grant (on a poster in her room) and comes to some conclusions. Meanwhile, Dante has his own problems, such as what to do with his mother's dog!
