The big moment has arrived. Our nine students from Class 3C are just one step away from the fateful finish line: their final exams. They all share a common feeling: fear, and are gripped by a sudden and frantic attachment to their studies. Sharing the anxiety and strain of those moments is an unusual private student: Commendatore Zampetti, forced by work to sit his final exams alongside the students from Class 3C.

Driving School

The students of Class 3C, fresh from their school days, are elated by the announcement of a traditional school trip to the snow-capped peaks. They set off excitedly, dreaming of a week of freedom, enjoying winter sports and flirting with vacationers. But the beautiful Sharon has left with her waiter Aziz, whose job it is to keep a close eye on her, and the kids aren't exactly skiers. The only one to truly experience an unforgettable vacation is the Italian teacher, who, despite constant disturbances from his students, finds love in that snowy landscape.

The White Week

The students of Class 3C have always been drawn to ambitious artistic endeavors. After their school play, this year they even decided to make a film. It's a horror film titled "Quella scuola accanto al cimitero," directed by Benedetta and starring poor Bruno, reluctantly, in the demanding role of a paranormal being. Some bitter disagreements with producer Zampetti, however, will transform the film into a long and terrifying commercial for cured meats and cotechino.

Action, It's Rolling

This year, as tradition dictates, the legendary football match between the 3rd C and 3rd F teams is being celebrated. It's a real derby, one that promises to be fierce and fierce, given the long-standing rivalry between the two classes. Our players are preparing diligently for the big match. Their coach is Ciro, Bruno's stationer, who certainly isn't the most reliable; their sponsor is, needless to say, the Zampetti salami company; and even a foreigner, Aziz, the sponsor's Somali waiter. The 3rd C team enters the derby as a clear underdog. But, as they say, the ball is in the air.

The Derby

A mystery unfolds in class 3C. Many students' snacks mysteriously disappear from the classroom. Food thefts become increasingly frequent, and among the students, excitement gives way to nervousness and furious protests. Chicco decides to take matters into his own hands and, assisted by Bruno, launches into a thorough police investigation to track down the culprit. Naturally, Chicco and Bruno seem unlikely to be playing Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.

The Mystery of the Snack

Carnival is in full swing. For the occasion, the principal has organized a party in the school gym, attended by teachers and parents. It's clear that the students in Class 3C have other plans for their Carnival. On the evening of Fat Thursday, each of them, unbeknownst to their classmates, goes in costume to a large Brazilian party, hosted by Aziz and Puccio at Villa Zampetti. When the host unexpectedly returns, the disappointed students, victims of numerous misunderstandings, will be forced to quickly transfer the festive atmosphere of the Rio Carnival to the Sacchi household.

At Carnival, Anything Goes

Are Chicco, Massimo, Bruno, and Daniele real men? They're sure of it, and to counter the derision of their schoolmates, they decide to prove it by enrolling in a grueling survival course. The outcome is obviously disastrous. The boys quickly realize they're not cut out for a wild, adventurous life. Furthermore, rather than a survival school, the four discover they've enrolled in a real concentration camp, run by the fearsome German jailer Bruno Kaiser. They learn, therefore, only one way to survive: escape.

Survival Course

Our classmates become the protagonists of a thrilling news story. Two escapees, wanted throughout the city, find refuge in 3C and take the students hostage. Outside the high school, the police are mobilized, the parents are distraught, and Puccio's local TV station follows the drama live with bated breath. Only the students, overjoyed, enjoy the suspenseful day as a tempting diversion from school. The two convicts, in fact, prove completely harmless and are the only ones to experience truly terrifying hours, victims of the unbridled students of 3C.

The Escapees

There's war between the 3rd C and the 3rd F! Luckily, it's just a "soft" war with toy guns and tracer bullets, which leave only a red stain on the victims' uniforms. Nevertheless, General Chicco's soldiers take their little war very seriously. Boys and girls, mindful of so many war movies, transform themselves for the space of a weekend into tough guys, sharp strategists, and heroic kamikazes...plus one shirker: Bruno Sacchi.

War Games

Sometimes it's worth debunking the old cliché that perpetuates antagonism between students and teachers. That's what the students in Class 3C think when their distraught Italian teacher confesses he's in serious trouble due to an eviction order. To help him financially solve his problems, the students mutually make the fateful decision: "Let's go to work." They improvise, taking on the most diverse odd jobs: clerk, delivery driver, fortune teller.

The Professor Is Looking for a House

Bruno Sacchi absolutely needs a car. It will save him from being constantly late for school and spending endless hours on the train. Unfortunately, Chicco and Puccio are his driving instructors. When he finally gets into his first car, a battered old dud given to him by the same old Ciro, the impact of city traffic is truly traumatic for Bruno.

Rome, late 1980s, Leopardi Classical High School. This is where the various protagonists of the series meet and experience the epic, hilarious exploits of their classmates in 3C, the most outgoing high school students of the entire school year. Bruno Sacchi, a shy, rather plump boy, often awkward but with a big heart. Chicco Lazzaretti, the classic, tireless repeater, obsessed with school and his classmates, always ready to answer teachers in funny ways to distract his classmates. Of course, Daniele and Rossella, typical sweethearts who have grown up together since childhood, are also present, along with the beautiful, blonde Sharon Zampetti, desired by everyone.
