Episode synopsis

(1) The Pizza Maker with the Special Flour: Leonardo da Vinci Airport welcomes a young pizza maker from Lisbon who—given the summer heat across Europe—arrives looking suspiciously overheated. The Border Investigation Unit inspects a hurried female passenger who, while presenting her Spanish passport, fails to conceal an accent that gives her away and triggers a desperate reaction. (2) The Suspicious Family Photo with a Filling: The police anti-narcotics unit attempts to figure out how an unemployed young man finances his frequent trips to Paris; a Chinese national returns with almost no luggage; and a woman, unable to find the price tags in the duty-free shop, decides to simply help herself to a few perfumes—unaware that she is being watched.
