He also gets a better job in an Italian restaurant, where he learns more of cooking from his boss Giovanni. One day he finds Giovanni having sex with ria, despite he having proposed to her earlier. Enraged, he steals and drinks from his boss prized wine collection, before murdering them both and cannibalizing a slice of meat removed from rias buttocks.In the prison cell there is a power hierarchy with Buji Babu Santana at the top. The food is poor, and Nonato is assigned to cook better food. The inmates are usually quite satisfied with it, and Nonato rises in the hierarchy. However, Buji rejects Gorgonzola, raw meat, and cooked ants, much to Raimundos frustration. When topcriminal Etcetera, who is highly regarded by the inmates, arrives, Buji decides that a great meal should be cooked to please him. The main prison kitchen is arranged for the occasion, an event which Nonato takes advantage of to poison Buji, ultimately leading to him becoming the leader of his cell. ........
