In this episode, Petra and her partner Antonio Monte are assigned to investigate the murder of a widely despised television gossip journalist. While the precinct brass focuses on the death of a young woman connected to an influential public figure—a case deemed high-stakes and "political"—Petra and Antonio's case is initially dismissed as a minor nuisance.

As they delve deeper into the investigation, however, they uncover the dark and seamy underbelly of the entertainment business. The search for the killer takes them away from their usual base in Genoa to the city of Rome. Title: Deathwatch (Italian: Morti di carta ). Director: Maria Sole Tognazzi.
