Calogiuri has done some research about the Paradise Farm, run by Saverio Romaniello's non-profit organization. Imma makes a surprise visit to Romaniello and subtly lets him know how much she knows about him.

Mimmo has realized that Franca wasn't the problem blocking him from songwriting. He misses her terribly, in fact, and his friend Franco comes up with an idea.

Imma happens to know the judge who was involved in the judicial auctions Calogiuri had found out about. She and Pietro get together with him for a friendly lunch in the country.

Franca is on tour and gets word about a new song of Mimmo's. She says she doesn't care at all, but it's clear she does.

Imma gets some anonymous information that leads her to more remains. Putting their heads together, Imma and Calogiuri connect some dots, both on a map and figuratively.

Domenico's song Musetto is playing on the radio, and Franca hears it and realizes it's about her. He has dinner with his father who is in town, and some thorny subjects come up.

After talking to Sergio Covaser, Imma and Calogiuri have an idea of who he is. Imma is concerned about her daughter and talks things over with her husband.

Domenico feels misunderstood by his friends. As he walks with his friend Franco, a magazine cover attracts his attention. He goes to see his agent Gramitto, who has some news for him.

Vaccaro's memory is jogged. He mentions the actor in the movie they're making nearby, so Imma and Calogiuri go to the set to have an informal conversation with Sergio Covaser who is on his lunch break.

It's coming on Christmas, and Mimmo is strolling through the street market. He spies an old friend who is clearly not doing so well. Domenico has been in that situation many times in the past and doesn't hesitate to "pay it forward."

Not surprisingly, Valentina is furious with her mother. Imma and Calogiuro go back to the beach to question Vaccaro. Not surprisingly, he has no idea who Aida Bashir is.

Mimmo is stuck at home taking care of household matters, trying unsuccessfully to write new songs, and Franca is getting work and is out and about. This situation of dissatisfaction and imbalance leads to harsh words.

Imma discovers that Aida used to go to the same club where her daughter, Valentina, is at a party. She does what she feels she has to do.

Domenico gets an impromptu chance to sing in Italian for a French audience, and it goes well. Not well enough, however, and he is still depressed and feeling uninspired.

Imma buys a dress to replace the one with a stain. Calogiuri has some new information about the victim. Meanwhile, the chief prosecutor gets a disturbing email.
