In the capital of Piedmont he weaves a passionate relationship with the young Lombard sub-proletarian Fiore, who gives him a son. Back in Catania with Fiore and the baby, he finds himself divided between his mistress and his wife, and because Rosalia betrayed him with a marshal, he takes revenge by seducing the ugly wife of the rival.
