From the audience, with Sara, Marioni watches the rehearsal led by Maestro Fiore. He doesn't seem to think much of Fiore's method. At the end of the rehearsal, Matteo's uncle is waiting for him outside to take him to his therapy appointment.

Barbara is aware that she is making all sorts of mistakes, but she counts Domenico as being outside her "diary of errors." All this is expressed in a song she sings.

Matteo and other friends show up at Barbara's house, but she hasn't returned yet, so they talk a bit with her mother about the concert without revealing what happened to her daughter. Barbara doesn't take the visit well and asks her friends to leave.

Maestro Fiore has arrived and introduces himself to the orchestra students. He says he is just like them and wants to feel their music and their energy.

After the victory, the Jams must decide where to put the trophy and Joy has a great idea. Alice and Max, with an excuse, move away from Joy and Stefano who finally get closer to each other.

After being kicked out of Marioni's class, Matteo returns home, where his uncle is waiting to introduce him to Lorenzo. Matteo goes out with Domenico, who tells him some things about Marioni. Meanwhile, something has happened in the group chat.

And finally Borghese announces the verdict: the Jams win! The boys are on cloud nine while Melissa takes it badly.

Matteo is about to leave the rehearsal after his argument with Marioni. Irene is there in the auditorium, having learned about the warning to Marioni, and wants to be there for him. He asks her to stick around.

Chef Borghese tastes and evaluates the main courses and The Best end in a tie. Everything is left to play for with the desserts. Who knows if Joy's grandmother's recipe will be the winning one.

Matteo stays to play his solo for Marioni, who makes him play without looking at the music. Outside, the others in his group discuss how long they think he will endure Marioni's harsh treatment.

Chef Borghese begins to give out the scores. One by one, the contestants present their dishes, and even though Max was a bit awkward at one point, the Jams manage well. But never think you have victory in your pocket until the end!

Sara offers to walk Chiara home, and the two have a conversation about how it feels to be visually impaired. At the rehearsal, Marioni expresses his frustration with orchestra's lack of passion in their playing and discusses the significance of performing the Unfinished Symphony.

The Jams arrive running at school where the award ceremony is already underway. Chef Borghese has just awarded the cup but asks the winners if they want to win by challenging the Jams. Oscar, as captain, decides to continue the competition and they begin with the appetizer tasting.

Marioni is summoned by the principal because he received a warning from Giacomo's parents who hold him responsible for what happened to their son. During rehearsals, the maestro discovers someone who shouldn't be in the hall.

The Jams are four and without Joy the finale makes no sense. Alice, Stefano, and Max go to visit Alice to make her understand how important their friendship is and let her taste the cake they made. All together they decide to run to the finale.
