Eva practices opening the safe, and Dante goes to the market, none too happy about his friction with Eva. He has an unusual encounter there.

Eva knows Dante is keeping something from her, and she is a bit worried. Malù wants to talk to Lorenzo and he is a bit worried. The girls start making detailed plans for the caper.

Eva goes to see Dante but gets a nasty surprise. But things aren't as they seem, and explanations are forthcoming. Lorenzo, on the other hand, is in a particularly good mood.

It's time for the girls to act. They carry out their various tasks and manage to get into Negri's studio. Eva makes a beeline for the safe. Eva is disguised, and is described by her friend as the Befana. Befana is a corruption of Epifania (Epiphany) and, in Italian tradition, the Befana is an old woman who brings gifts (or coal) for children on this holiday. Befana has also come to mean "witch."

Eva's expertise shines through as the situation at Negri's studio takes an unexpected turn. Lola also plays an essential role in the success of the heist.

Negri isn't happy to find out his money is gone, and blames it on his usual cleaners when they show up at the studio, late for work. Eva and her friends have a nice surprise for Filippo and his father, who is incredulous.

There's some tension between Dante and Eva but they get distracted by Lorenzo who shows up at the restaurant in high spirits. The chief of police, also in high spirits, stops by to report on having caught a corrupt contractor.

Eva goes with Lola to see about getting her car fixed. The head mechanic comes across as shockingly crass, but the assistant is nice and easily fixes the problem with the car. Lola can't help flirting with him.

If the girls thought the mechanic was bad news, they now discover he is extremely bad news. Eva and Lola go to the concert to see Franco's friend perform, but are greeted by a different scene altogether.

Eva goes to see Armando the mechanic, disguised as Franco's rich cousin. She intimidates him with her fancy language and manages to get the computer back. Franco has to find a job to pay his rent and tuition.

Eva and Dante have a little competition going on whose dishes are more popular. Lorenzo shows up having made a decision Eva is none too happy with. A little crisis ensues.

Eva and Dante finally get some time alone at her apartment, now that Lorenzo has gone on a trip to Florence. That's their hope anyway.

Lorenzo is giving his mom the silent treatment and this is torture for Eva, who recognizes she was wrong and wants to talk about it. Eva gets some new information from Franco who is taking a look at Dante's motorcycle.

Lorenzo is seriously upset with his mother. He wants to be left alone, but Eva has a hard time with that. On a different front, Eva goes to see Augusto for advice and help regarding the mechanic.

The girls carry out the first part of their plan. They see that the mechanic has plenty of work and plenty of money.
