After seeing Michele and Nico, Daniel falls into a deep depression and never wants to get out of bed again. Emma discovers that her erotic video has made the rounds of the school, with catastrophic consequences for her relationship with Jacopo. Michele devises a plan to free Nico from Valentina's presence, but something doesn't go as it should.

Nico is under sedation and, while sleeping, goes over some traumatic events that led her to be bullied. The boys visit her and talk to her continuously while she is prey to her hallucinations. Reliving the traumas, however, triggers a deep need in her mind: she must get out of the clinic, and she must do it with her friends.

Nico, Michele and Daniel arrive at Sebastiano's house where a party is taking place. It seems immediately clear to Nico that Michele's father has no intention of taking his son with him but the boy keeps hoping that he will, ending up being manipulated by his parent. The party degenerates when, driven by alcohol, some of the guests decide to lock Daniel in a closet. Emma, meanwhile, decides to return to the clinic.
