Imma is still worried about her husband ending up in the hospital when, back at work, Diana has bad news for her. Imma remembers her appointment with Don Mariano, but that's not the worst of it.

Imma goes to the Foundation where Don Mariano had his office. She and the team look for the tablet and talk to the young man who helped out there. They also talk to the housekeeper Ilona, who says there were plenty of people out to get Don Mariano.

Imma goes to the hospital and can't help looking at Pietro's phone while he is sleeping. Back at the office, Diana is in tears because her husband wants a separation.

Imma is talking with Mottola to find any connections with Don Mariano's death. He is accusing the deceased of not having helped him, and at a certain point, she says: Ma si rende conto? (but do you have any idea?) For more on this expression see our lesson. Back home, Imma is irritable, but she can't talk to her daughter about the real reasons she is upset.

Il Commissioner Manara is an Italian TV series set in the Maremma (southern Tuscany), which centers on Luca Manara, an unorthodox and highly seductive, newly arrived police commissioner, played by Guido Caprino.

Commissioner Manara arrives on the scene of the supposed suicide. He questions a witness, and talks to the victim's doctor, and to the medical examiner, who turns out to be an attractive woman who has no problem with shyness.

Manara meets his new boss and from the outset there's tension. We learn that Manara was transferred to his new post because of an affair between Manara and the wife of his former boss.

Commissioner Manara meets up with Lara Rubino, his old classmate from the police academy. She's less than happy to see him and slaps him right across the face.

Rubino, the new inspector, can't stand being in the same room with Manara. And when he doesn't even remember why, she really gets angry. But then they get some interesting news from the morgue...

Manara arrives at his hotel, and the clerk is curt with him until she learns he's the new commissioner. Manara and the deceased are the topics discussed by Rubino and her aunt.

From the gardener, Michele, we learn that the dead professor was not well liked. Rubino lets us know about her soured friendship with Manara at the police academy.

The autopsy shows that the victim couldn't have pulled the trigger, but Manara's boss insists on suicide. Manara and his team have other ideas.

Lara Rubino visits Lenni's villa and finds that his wife has broken in. Manara uses his considerable charm on a vet.

Manara visits the dead professor's daughter and it becomes ever clearer to Manara that the mother's alibi won't hold.

It turns out Lenni's will contains some surprises. Someone important is excluded completely and another person, quite unexpectedly, is included. Meanwhile, Caterina is puzzled by Doctor Masini's behaviour the day of Lenni's death.
