During investigation, Elena find out that in Samuele’s house there was another person and she convince herself that Alessandro is innocent. In the meanwhile Pietro examine thoroughly the situation and discover that Grazia lied to fifteen years old Elena about paternity: Caterina is not born after the violence, but she’s Alessandro’s daughter. Before telling this truth to Elena, Pietro must help Elena to solve the case. Together they find out who was in Samuele house: Ines. She killed Samuele because he blackmailed her. He would have forced her to close out her house for his real estate speculation, because he found out that she made the tuna factory explode.
