Having read about Mattioli's death, Camilla rushes to Berardi's office, where he is checking some documents with Torre. She participates and comes across an interesting piece of information.

Lojacono and Di Nardo go to see Biagio's ex-girlfriend to ask her one more question. She happens to remember something that gives them a new lead. They then go and talk to Renato, Biagio's friend and colleague.

Imma goes to the land registry office in Ginosa to find out more about Palazzo De Nardis. She manages to obtain some information from the person in charge and goes to see Signora D'Avena.

Berardi and his men go after Marino Monti who is at the martial arts center. It was very upsetting for Camilla to see it all so close up. She has a drink with Gaetano to calm down.

Lojacono is confident he knows how the murder happened and is able to trick Renato into saying something he couldn't have heard on the news.

Imma talks to Stacchio again and finds a few more pieces to the puzzle. She also talks to the coroner to learn some details about Stella's death. She also has new information about a certain phone call.

The police question the man they caught fleeing the martial arts center and are able to tie up a lot of loose ends. Gaetano and Sonia discuss the case over dinner, but the inspector's mind is elsewhere. Renzo is finally convinced that Camilla wasn't having hallucinations when she saw the nurse's body upstairs.

The case has been solved, one gets the feeling that if the murderer had been Varricchio, a common ex-convict, instead of a promising biologist, son of a prominent professor, the outcome would have been more palatable to the city and to the press.

Imma attends Stella's burial at the cemetery and is struck by the writing on a wreath. She introduces herself to the woman who placed it on the gravesite and tries to find out a little more about Stella's life. She is also drawn to the ossuary or wall burial site bearing the name, Centino Latronico. We recall him as the man Imma suspects might have been her real father.

Mattioli's wife talks to Berardi and tells him what she knows so that they can find the body of the nurse. At school, Camilla's class discusses the book "L'Esclusa" by Pirandello. The usual translation of the title is "The Outcast," but literally, it is "the excluded woman."

Calogiuri shows up at Imma's office with a possible piece of evidence, meriting a trip to see Stacchio again. They head out together but there is some troubling news awaiting them there.

It's time for an official introduction to Camilla's mother's fiance. Everyone is a bit tense. Camilla then gets a phone call that changes the course of the evening.

Imma gets some information from her "helpful" colleague and goes to Eustacchio's school to find out more. Viewers might recognize his teacher.

Camilla and Renzo go down to the morgue to identify the dead body. They take with them the earring Renzo found in the stairwell near Mattioli's office. Back home in bed, they discuss some peculiarities regarding the earrings and the corpse.

Leaving school, Valentina and her friend meet up with a certain Samuel who has a little present for Valentina. Imma and Calogiuri see Stacchio's friends and ask them some questions, with the pretext that Calogiuri had lost his dog.
