Imma is home feeling weakened by recent events. Pietro is very supportive and convinces her to take a day off, something she had never done before.

Imma is taking a vacation day, but is she really capable of that? She goes hiking with Pietro but he slowly realizes she has ulterior motives. By chance, they meet up with Ettore Rossetti, the person who originally found the dead body of Domenico Bruno.

Imma can't help herself and goes to the office. Diana gives her some important information to mull over. The young people are having a little party for Calogiuri who is leaving for his exam in Rome the next day.

Penelope gets some news she shares with Valentina. Imma is upset about Calogiuri's leaving, but throws herself into her work, confronting Bruno's son about his project in Vallone della Femmina.

Imma interviews Giulio Bruno, the son of the murdered architect, Domenico. Giulio seems forthcoming about what happened with his uncle in Argentina.

Valentina goes to see her grandmother, who may have dementia but can still offer good advice. Imma discovers that her husband plays soccer with the prefect, Moliterni's husband.

Diana has some information for Imma, some of it urgent. Imma calls on Calogiuri even though he is about to take his exam.

Imma and Pietro go to dinner at the prefect's and play with some Latin proverbs. One of these gives Imma an idea about the case.

Pietro seems to have a great time at the dinner party, while Imma is focused on work and on finding the right moment to talk to her hostess.

Imma's excellent memory helps her figure out some details of the murder, as she talks to the brother from Argentina.

Domenico Bruno tells Imma the whole story of how his brother died.

Imma goes home after a long day to find Pietro and Valentina in the kitchen. She relaxes on the sofa only to catch sight of a picture of her as a girl...

Imma is back in the office when she gets an unexpected visitor.

Some evidence has been burned in what appears to be a gas leak, and Imma is very concerned for her case against Romaniello. She goes back to her office to fight back when she has two different visitors, one more welcome than the other.

Imma meets her colleagues at the crime scene and recognizes the victim. The marshal of the Pisticci Carabinieri also knew the young woman who apparently had taken her own life.

Imma is offering her condolences to the parents of the victim, while gently questioning them. At the same time, she thinks back to a conversation she had had with Donata.

Grandma and granddaughter prepare a traditional dish from Basilicata, called la ciambotta, a kind of stew with vegetables, and sometimes meat. Valentina serves it to her parents that evening. The next day, Imma and Diana talk about the parliamentarian, Lombardi.

Imma talks to the proprietor of the restaurant where Donata was to try out as a waitress. She also has a more fruitful conversation with an employee. Later on, she takes her mother to the eye doctor, where she gets somewhat of a jolt.

Imma takes her mother to the eye doctor and by chance absorbs some new information about her past. She talks about the Romaniello case with Vitali and lets him know she will be gone for a couple of days.

Imma has decided to go to Rome on her own dime to try to talk to Lombardi. Pietro isn't convinced about her motivation. The bus trip isn't very comfortable.

Imma arrives in Rome and gets on a motor scooter for the first time. She and Calogiuri discuss the murder case and then Imma goes to talk to Lombardi.

Imma manages to exchange a few words with Congressman Lombardi as he waits to go and vote in the Chamber. She lets him know that Donata's death might not be a suicide.

After speaking with Lombardi, Imma meets up with Calogiuri again to discuss things and he gives her an update on his social media encounter with Lolita. Pietro goes to a sax lesson at the home of his teacher.

Imma and Calogiuri are enjoying dinner together, but the conversation is a bit awkward. A guy comes by selling roses, creating yet another awkward moment.
