Lara and Luca go to the boat to verify Ms. Brumelt's change of alibi, and they come across Massimo who works there. You can easily imagine Manara's expression... but he then gets a call about some rotten fish in a van, and a surprise.

In both cases under investigation, it's been discovered that witnesses have been withholding information from the police.

New suspects and witnesses start turning up in one of the cases being investigated, thanks to Lara's aunt.

The investigation proceeds, Lara receives some red roses at work, to the consternation of Manara, and Aunt Caterina does her part as well.

The cadaver on the autopsy table doesn't stop Ginevra from wanting to give the commissioner more than just a report. Lara and Serena are at the docks where they see someone they're not supposed to see, and meet someone from Lara's past.

Inspectors Rubino and Sardi go to the Etruscan museum to investigate the theft of the Green Ray. They have a few moments for girl talk and ice cream.

Manara starts investigating the unusual catch, and later he and Lara try to talk. But there's also the museum theft to take care of.

We're at the beginning of a new episode, featuring a strange catch by some fishermen, and the disappearance of a precious jewel from the local Etruscan museum.

Everyone is happy that Marcuccio ended up safely at Caterina's house, and he's now ready to go home to his mother. But what about Luca's birthday? What about Lara? Tune in for the final part of this episode.

Manara has it all figured out, and questions his suspect, who reconstructs the murder for him. Toscani, on the other hand, has ended up in the hospital, and becomes a hero in the eyes of the Questore, who never quite seems to appreciate Manara's efforts, and sees only his faults.

Toscani isn't thrilled with organizing the birthday party for the guy who "stole" his job, and is complaining to his wife. She steers the conversation around to their love life. The party gets cut short because Luca has a flash of genius, and figures out the case based on what Toscani says in his toast. He leaves for the hospital with two detectives and barely has time to acknowledge Lara when she walks in late to the party.

Marcuccio is in the hospital, and as planned, zia Caterina goes to see him. But all he will come out with are lines from one of Leopardi's poems. Meanwhile Romei is anxious to have the letters he considers his own, but things aren't so simple.

Back at her aunt's house, Lara deals with Giulia when she comes back, and hashes things over with her aunt in the morning. Meanwhile Manara is once again moving his desk around, while discussing both the case and Giulia Chiamparani with Toscani, who's curious as to why Giulia disappeared so quickly.

In the eyes of Manara's boss, Giulia is the heroine, having recovered the letters, and Manara is a failure for having let the murderer escape from under his nose. Now Giulia's work is finished and she's just about ready to go back to Rome, but she still has some unfinished business... business she doesn't want Lara's help with.

Luca and Giulia are finally alone, in a car, at night, in a typical spot for lovers. Hmm...
