Giacinta and her friends narrate their version of the events surrounding the murder of Ramaglia and Capuano to the whole team of Pizzofalcone. Palma goes to see his superior to assess the situation.

After a long work day, everyone on the team goes home to a different situation, and it isn't always a happy one.

Valentina goes to see her grandmother, who may have dementia but can still offer good advice. Imma discovers that her husband plays soccer with the prefect, Moliterni's husband.

There is a new case for the team at Pizzofalcone and Lojacono and Aragona go to the scene of the crime. A young cleaning woman was found dead in the basement of an apartment building.
