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.

After Stefano returned with the Jams, things seem to have gone back to normal. Alice reflects on the fact that their age isn't an easy one because there are many changes. Some beautiful, others less so.

At school, Stefano has good news, but the lesson must continue. The teacher asks the students to observe outside and express what they see and feel through drawing. She is particularly struck by a couple of drawings, albeit for different reasons.

For the finale, there will be an exceptional guest, a famous chef, and the kids are beside themselves with excitement. The Jams need to climb up the rankings, and Melissa's team changes their approach on how to manage the contest to win.

Stefano and Joy prepare the cake for Alice while Max makes sure that Joy has had some ideas to invite both of the birthday girl's parents. When Max takes Alice to the amusement park, she notices something strange.

Max and Alice are at the amusement park and want to go on a ride, but the place looks deserted. Everything is ready at the bistrot except for the cake, which Joy should be bringing. On the way to the party, she runs into her little friend on his bike.
