Inspektor Corrado Cattani przybywa wraz z żoną i córką na Sycylię, aby przejąć schedę po zamordowanym niedawno szefie wydziału kryminalnego policji. Niemal od razu stara się rozwiązać zagadkę tajemniczej śmierci swojego poprzednika. Przeglądając niedokończone sprawy zamordowanego komisarza natrafia na pewien trop, którym postanawia podążyć. Niestety, nie wszystkim wszczęte śledztwo wydaje się być na rękę, a sam Cattani staje się głównym celem tych, których stara się złapać.
While I thoroughly enjoyed Seasons 1 and 2 of The Octopus (La Piovra), I felt that Season 3, though still entertaining, lacked credibility and originality. Fortunately, in Season 4, the series redeems itself with a complex central plot and plenty of action, intrigues, drama, suspense and twists and turns to keep viewers engaged over all six episodes. Our friend Corrado Cattani is back as determined as ever to fight the Mafia. Sadly, his lover from Season 3, Giulia Antinari, has died in a boat accident (the background to this is not fully explained). Still mourning her loss, Corrado lives a solitary and reclusive life (only a handful of close friends know where he lives), wary of further emotional attachment, as most of those he's loved in the past are now dead. He makes some new friends in Season 4, however, including Judge Silvia Conti and Inspector Trevi, newly graduated from the police academy. In Season 4, each episode is longer than in earlier seasons, at around 1 hour 40 minutes each. The season revolves around Tano Carridi, who at the end of Season 3 was the personal assistant of the Mafia-linked banker Nicola Antinari but had moved up the ranks of the Mafia, having received the blessing of the Mafia boss "Il Puparo". He's now the chairman of the Antinari Bank. A sinister and cunning character, yet one with a sad and lonely past, Carridi masterminds a Mafia plot to take over one of Italy's largest finance companies, "International Securities". Carridi's problem is that the chairman of International Securities, Rasi, is an honest man, and doesn't want to sell his share of the company to Carridi, whom Rasi knows is in the Mafia. To force him to sell, Carridi uncovers a dark secret from Rasi's past and uses it to blackmail him into selling. Also, Carridi insists on marrying Rasi's beautiful 20 year old daughter Ester, to seal the "deal", and Rasi, being blackmailed, is unable to object. Ester agrees to the sham marriage for her father's sake, but actually detests Carridi, and secretly hopes to use her position as his wife to destroy him from within.
