Laura struggles to accept Nina's change and wants her blonde daughter back, but she broaches the subject with her daughter the wrong way. To keep her mind off Claudia, Eva throws herself headlong into work, and when Paolo asks her to bring a flower arrangement to Claudia, she's forced to confront her face-to-face. It's Christmas Eve, and Paolo wakes up with a strange omen: he dreamed of a destroyed house, a woman's foot wearing a fuchsia shoe, and a man's hand holding a knife. The nightmare worries him because he fears the Christmas dinner will be a disaster, especially with Eva, Claudia, and Roberta present.
