Three years have passed since Margherita's death, but the wounds are still raw for the marshal, who nevertheless arranges Daniela's wedding. At Tommy's school, he then meets his teacher, Francesca, the daughter of his marshal from when he was young. She has always had a soft spot for him, and this is a good opportunity to start flirting with him again. Roberto opens a pub thanks to a loan from his father, Giacomo argues with his wife's parents after discovering his wealthy father-in-law's illegal sale of butchered meat, and Daniela lives with Marco, torn between love and petty arguments. Finally, Rocca finally declares his love for Francesca, who is about to marry someone else, but gives up everything for the marshal.
