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

Matteo stays to practice alone with Marioni, who encourages him to play without sheet music and follow his commands, but Matteo mentions Giacomo and the lesson ends.

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.

Sara offers to walk Chiara home when Marioni discovers her, and the girl tells little Chiara that she hasn't always been blind. There are things she remembers and things she misses. At the end of rehearsal, Marioni criticizes the orchestra.

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!

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 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.

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.

Matteo meets Sofia to whom he confesses being excited about the concert. At Sara's house, Gigi plays for her parents the song he composed for her. Robbo and Chiara unfortunately witness an argument between their parents.

The finale is approaching and Alice, Stefano, and Max are recording the video of the recipe they have chosen for the appetizer to send to Joy. The Jams don't want Joy to feel alone and wonder what's the point of participating in the final competition without their friend.

Matteo and his uncle seem to be very similar when it comes to feelings, and perhaps uncle Daniele isn't so happy about it. Scheggia and Sofia go to eat at her mother's restaurant and tease her a bit.

Alice and her friends know that something serious has happened to Joy, but their parents have only told them to be patient and that their friend will return soon.

During the concert rehearsals, Marioni believes that Barbara hasn't put in enough effort because she has dedicated time to studying philosophy. He therefore decides to exclude her and warns the others if they try to console her.

Sara goes to talk to Gigi and invites him to her house to talk but another time because tonight she's with her friends. When Robbo returns home, he finds Chiara upset, who tells him she's gotten into trouble. Barbara, on the other hand, has to face Marioni again in class.

Maestro Marioni listens to Domenico and Barbara play and doesn't spare harsh treatment towards the girl. Despite her friends being supportive of her, Barbara decides to go home to study instead of going out after rehearsal.
