Natoli is not thrilled at all with Paolo's apartment, nor with his idea of what's for dinner.

Jacopo's life is further turned upside down when he tries to escape to the only refuge he knows: his parents' house.

The final segment on the Alto Adige features the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The series will continue with other Italian regions.

Sara and Jacopo will have a long challenging day ahead of them. They just don't know it yet.
