Potti and Bibì seem happy to be home together, and Livietta is happy too. The jeweler has gone to police headquarters to talk with Torre. At school, there is tension between Debbie and Eugenia. Renzo is thinking about taking dancing lessons.

People seem to think Alberto is a bit nuts. He's about to go on live TV, and people around him hope he doesn't botch it. The name of the TV show is Non è mai troppo tardi (it's never too late). What's implied in the title is that it's never to late to learn to read and write. In Italian, a person who never learned to read or write is called analfabeta.

Camilla and Renzo are looking for the dogs... Inspector Berardi goes to see Maciste at the amusement park. The next morning, Gaetano shows up at school needing a favor from Camilla.

Berardi gets a phone call before leaving Camilla. Renzo goes to pick up Livietta and sees the dance teacher dancing. Meanwhile, on the home front, there is some drama involving Potti, Bibì, and Camilla's mother.

Berardi discovers who owned the gun that killed Lenox and goes to see his superior to take himself off the case. Meanwhile, Camilla goes to Francesca's apartment to get the dogfood for Bibì.

Lisa and Oriana spend some moments together for the last time. Lisa asks a final question and gets an answer that greatly affects both of them emotionally.

Renzo has an idea for what to do about Potti. Gaetano and the district attorney go to the morgue to talk to the coroner. At school, Camilla gets a phone call from Francesca.

Back in Florence, Oriana has a conversation with her doctor about her condition. Lisa goes to see at her house her and tells her what she's been up to.

At the hospital, Francesca wakes up to see Gaetano by her side. Is he there as a brother or as a cop? She explains what happened the night of the murder.

Soon after the 9/11 attack on the Twin Towers in New York City, where Oriana happens to be living, she breaks her self-imposed silence and writes an article for the Milanese newspaper Corriere della Sera.

Camilla is in front of the hospital and gets a call on Francesca's phone. At least Camilla has the sense to warn Renzo she'll be a bit late. Renzo sees his mother-in-law outside with someone who doesn't look a bit like poor Sandra.

Lisa finally feels comfortable leaving Oriana at the hospital and goes back to the house to watch some interviews with the journalist.

Camilla finds Francesca in very bad shape and calls an ambulance. Meanwhile, Berardi interviews Lenox's secretary and hears about Paul's ex-girlfriend.

Despite huge obstacles, Oriana finally manages to interview Ayatollah Khomeini. The controversial encounter contributed to making Oriana Fallaci worldwide famous.

Under pressure from Renzo, Camilla tries calling Francesca one last time, and this time, she answers. They arrange a meeting so Bibì can go back to her owner.
