Synopsis/Details
Circo Famiglia focuses on the daily lives of the Bihari family and their traveling Circus, a world of wonder, amazement, and maybe a little bit of magic, when the need arises.
Here we meet Patritzi (Pepper) Bihari, one of three triplets born to the matriarch of the troupe—the Ringmaster herself—Mirabelle Bihari, and her loving husband, Giovanni Capello.
Her sister, Gloria, is the circus’ princess. With incredible strength and a spine made of jelly, Gloria switches easily between horseback riding, trapeze, tightrope walking, and anything else she sets her mind to.
Her brother, Roméo (Don’t forget the tilde! It’s very important to him), is the circus’ knife thrower. With perfect aim, and a penchant for sharp objects, Roméo is the master of both sword and dagger.
AND THEN WE HAVE PEPPER.
Pepper is bad at everything.
Clumsy, terrified of heights, and with a knack for breaking anything she lays hands on, Pepper has resigned herself to an existence of sweeping up after her siblings and helping with non-essential tasks that she can’t find a way to screw up.

In this episode, Pepper bumps into a beautiful stranger and accidentally picks up a lost cellphone in the kerfuffle. Not knowing what the device is, much less how it works, Pepper, Gloria, and Roméo embark on a mission to return it to its owner.
