A doctor in the family

On January 1st, a man rushes to the airport to leave, but he's late, and the plane leaves without him. The story picks up eight months later: in August, the Martini family is on vacation in Puglia, but without Bianca and little Carletto, who live in Paris with Gemma Aubry. The radio broadcasts news of the terrible plane crash on New Year's Day, from which the man fortunately survived. Maddalena, a longtime acquaintance of Libero, is abandoned by her father Gennaro. Libero and Enrica take her with them to Rome upon their return from vacation. Valerio Petrucci, the surviving man, wants to meet Elena, but is unaware that Lele's first wife has been dead for a long time. Elena and Valerio had been having an affair, and Valerio asks Lele to verify which of them is Anna's biological father, with whom he has since become friends.
