A series of latent tensions explode within the 10th Tuscolano. Vittoria is offended because Ingargiola is afraid to admit his feelings for her in front of his colleagues; Ugo wants to marry Adele but, at the same time, does not want to have to move to Argentina; while Luca is hurt by Corrado's attitude, who avoids him after discovering his homosexuality. Giulia, on the other hand, is disconcerted by Ira's ostentatious indifference towards Paolo's death, and does not know how to deal with him during the interrogation.
