Natoli is processing the tragic news. There's a meeting at the factory to commemorate Aldo.

Events have awakened a true transformation on Paolo's part, but even with all his good intentions, he's running up against some brick walls regarding Natoli.

All at once, Paolo has a whole lot on his plate. If he thought he already had problems, the worst is yet to come.

Paolo is feeling helpless and discouraged about everything, but Manuela won't give up as easily.

Manuela and Paolo are trying to get ready for getting approval for adoption from Social Services. They get to know each other better in the process, and Natoli shows his true colors, too.

Paolo is surrounded by challenges: Manuela's family, to start with, and then the difficult decisions to make regarding the future of the factory.

Emotions run high in this part of the story. Manuela has no idea what Paolo is going through, but they have to go to the adoption interview, so stress is running high, too. As often happens, Natoli provides some relief in his own inimitable way.

Today is the decisive doctor's visit, but it's not entirely what the newlyweds expected. Meanwhile, let's hope Paolo can start paying attention to his company's developments, because something fishy is going on.

Manuela gets to the document before Paolo does, and reacts. This starts quite a chain reaction involving Natoli, the workers at the factory, and Paolo who ends up on Manuela's bicycle.

Paolo clearly cares more about Natoli than his car, Manuela thinks Paolo is like the other bosses, and Natoli is becoming resigned to going back to his country. It's a mess.

There's a strike going on in the factory, and some dirty dealings going on, too. Meanwhile Paolo, with Natoli's expert help, is doing what he can to figure things out.

Paolo has to gather all his wits to figure out what's happening in the company. He confronts Salmastri, but Salmastri is truly slippery, and not to be underestimated.

Paolo and Natoli have some unforeseen difficulties getting to the factory, and when they finally do arrive, nothing is as it should be.

Paolo, with the help of Natoli, of course, is able to save the situation, and the workers are truly grateful. He pays a visit to the cemetery to talk to his brother Aldo.

In this last segment we find out what happened to Aldo and his wife. We don't know if everyone will live happily ever after, but for now, it's all good.
