Joy and Alice make peace with each other and get ready for the Halloween party. Stefano and Max talk on the phone.

It's time for the Halloween party. Joy and Alice show up together, Max is by himself, clearly down in the dumps, and both Melissa and Joy are wondering why Stefano is absent.

There are some surprises at the Halloween party. Alice and Max have an interesting conversation about Ivan and Chiara. Melissa is up to her usual tricks. Joy is waiting for Stefano to show up.

The Halloween party has come and gone, and it's time to focus on other things, like school, including oral quizzes. L'interrogazione is the word for the teacher asking students questions about what they have learned in class and what they have studied at home. There are students who want to be called on and others who try to hide, and pray they won't be called on.

Poor Max is called on to talk about the Iliad. Whatever he doesn't know, Gian Maria does know and raises his hand constantly.

Alice is concerned about Max. Gianmaria knows very well that Max is in trouble and makes a proposal. In cooking class, Joy
decides she doesn't feel well and leaves.

Joy and Stefano have a brief conversation in the park. He doesn't push. Michelino shows up wanting to go over to the lawyer's house with Joy. The cooking team practices their new recipe at the bistro.

Max meets up with Gianmaria to give him the recipe, but is Gianmaria being straight with him? Joy and Alice have their pyjama party, but it's not much of a party.

Joy has trouble sleeping. Max isn't sleeping either because he is reading! At the cooking contest, Alice notices that Melissa is making the same recipe as the JAMS team.

Professor Capuana is one of the judges of the lasagna contest. He notices right away that two of the dishes look an awful lot alike. Later on, at the park, the JAMS have an uncomfortable discussion.

"Quelli che" (those who...), written and performed by the great Enzo Jannacci, lends its ironic and humoristic verses to the soundtrack of Lina Wertmüller's film,"Pasqualino Settebellezze" [Seven Beauties] starring Giancarlo Giannini, and nominated for best foreign film at the 1976 Oscars.

This crime story is set in the city of Matera in the Basilicata region, where Immacolata (Imma) Tataranni is the deputy prosecutor. She's on vacation at the beach when she finds something odd in the water.

Imma tells her husband about the finger she saw, but he seems skeptical. She is none too happy about her daughter's bathing suit, and also gives the barman a hard time.

Imma goes back to the office, stopping to chat with the cleaning lady as she makes her way upstairs. She meets the new chief prosecutor.

Calogiuri and Imma go to the site, where they are making a movie, to see if there is anything to be learned. Calogiuri gets noticed by the director because of his good looks. Could he make it as actor?
