The principal of the school believes that Gilberto is in a relationship with Paolina and tries to transfer him to Borgo a Buggiano.

The surprise meeting between the two has devastating effects: Gilberto faints in shock and is taken to hospital, while Paolina reacts very badly and argues with her mother.
