Alice, Joy, and Max want to win the contest, so they go around the neighborhood to find some traditional recipes. One stop they make is at the home of Joy's father's friend. The three classmates meet up with Stefano more than once, making them curious.

At the park, the kids try to come up with a recipe and they invite Stefano to take part in the project. One thing leads to another.

Joy has an interesting idea about where they can practice cooking. But it's a bigger challenge than she expected.

After the recap from the previous episode, the kids get to work on the cake they have to make in order to beat Davide and gain permission to use his kitchen for practice.

It's time for the challenge. Customers can choose either Davide's cake or the one JAMS made. Whichever cake is gone first wins.

In class, the teacher notices the excitement in the air and takes pity on his students. Later on at the bistro, the JAMS make the dish Stefano had suggested. Davide leaves them to clean up.

Joy meets up with Michelino, Max's little brother, the mascot of the group. Soon after, Ettore, the attorney, happens by.

Max and Alice have a conversation and it is clear that she is trying to tell him something without coming out and saying it. Joy goes home and her mother asks her where she has been.

The cooking contest begins. Joy isn't quite her usually buoyant self, however. The kids on team "the Best" have already planned on cheating.

The principal and the teacher taste the four dishes and decide on the grades.

The four friends are still enjoying their memories of winning the school cooking competition. Their attention is drawn to a song on the radio and they dream about going to a concert featuring the singer.

At four o'clock, the 4 friends gather around the phone to try and win the tickets to the concert. In cooking class, the students are making arancini (rice balls).

Stefano tells Max about his wager for the tickets and it doesn't look good. Neither of them knows anything about bowling but that's the sport Gianmaria chose. The girls are skeptical too.

It's time to go bowling. Team "The Best" is clearly better and more experienced, and the JAMS kids are having a rough time of it. Joy and Alice try to bolster their friends' morale, and encourage them to work together as a team.

The guys finish their game and the winning team gets the tickets to the concert, as agreed. Later, Joy and Alice get together to talk about the day's events.
