During the orchestra rehearsal, a player makes a mistake and Marioni, the conductor, doesn't hesitate to press the point, in his usual cruel manner, that an orchestra is not a democracy.

Marioni tells the orchestra what he has in mind to help Matteo get integrated into the orchestra. The students involved begin to get organized by sharing their phone numbers.

Marioni asks Sara for help with Matteo. In the evening, Matteo is out walking with his uncle who is being a bit over-protective.

The kids who were involved by Marioni to help Matteo create a chat, and Sara immediately makes a bad impression. At Robbo's house, things seem a bit tense, and little Chiara is worried.

The boys are becoming friends and Matteo suggests changing the group's name. Marioni thinks about how he would like to act and his imagination takes over. Matteo tells his mom how things are going, but she already knows everything.

Barbara and her mother appear decidedly more serene, and the girl seems ready to start over. Meanwhile, at Rosario's house, his parents try to reassure him in anticipation of the meeting with his mother.

Irene becomes furious with Luca when she discovers that he is obsessively following and controlling Marco, while she takes refuge in a fictitious identity to distract herself from her own thoughts. Meanwhile, Barbara arrives at the new school and Sara makes a request with a determined tone.

In class, Barbara proves to be much further ahead than her classmates in the curriculum; for this reason the teacher decides to assign double the homework to all students. Meanwhile, Sara continues her battle, trying to convince Marioni to give her the chance to play.

Matteo and his classmates, during the break, get together to cheer for Sara in the hope that she manages to convince Marioni to let her play with them. Rosario, on the other hand, is agitated and this doesn't escape either the boys or his teacher.

Rosario chooses to avoid the encounter with his mother, so he makes up an excuse and returns to class. Meanwhile, in the lesson, Marioni puts Sara to the test, but she is determined not to give up.

Based on a true story, this film takes place in Scampia, a poor, crowded suburb just outside Naples. Having one of the highest rates of unemployment in Italy, the Camorra gets its way with many of the kids from this neighborhood, but Gianni also saves many kids by getting them involved in judo.

We're taken back to before the shots were fired at the Judo school. We get some background on the school and on Enzo's family.

Nunzia knocks at Enzo's door asking him to help her with her son, Sasà. We get to see a bit more of Sasà's personality, and Toni's.

There are some special additions to the judo class today.

Enzo has his hands full with Sasà at the gym. And that's not all.
