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.

Poor Pietro is having trouble discussing family problems with Imma, because she is easily distracted by the case she is trying to solve. At the office the next day, she has to deal with her colleagues, something she finds distasteful, and doesn't hide very well.

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.

Pietro's mother shows up at his house and doesn't hide how she feels about her daughter-in-law. On the way to see Nunzio's parents, Imma and Calogiuri discuss the bank records they were able to obtain.

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.

Imma is in the courtroom trying to get Saverio (from the previous episode) indicted. Later, she meets up with Calogiuri at the office, but there is someone else waiting for her.

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.

Imma goes to see her friend Pino at the museum to ask him about the fragments she saw at the reunion. She then goes to the cemetery with her mother.

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.

Imma is not exactly enjoying herself at the party, but she does notice something interesting, and possibly pertinent to her case. She encounters the deskmate who replaced Diana way back then.

Oriana tells Lisa about finishing her book, Un uomo (a man), and promoting it, especially in non-democratic countries. She travels to Iran in 1979 to interview the new leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, and to talk to someone who wants to translate her book.
