This blogpost summarizes episode highlights for Carla's character, Stella.

Alessandro tells Antonino over the phone that he has a plan. He smiles as he looks at an old newspaper headline about the First Daughter.




Using a device to alter his voice, Alessandro poses as Giancarlo and calls Stella to ask her out on a date.




Stella agrees to meet him, and at his request says that she'll have her bodyguards wait in the car.




Stella calls the President to let him know that she's going on a date with Giancarlo and will be home late.




He expresses his approval and instructs her to bring bodyguards with her.



Stella arrives at the restaurant and gets a call from Alessandro, who is still posing as Giancarlo. He tells her he's running late but will be there soon.



Coerced by threats to his family, Giancarlo heads to the restaurant and joins Stella.



At first he's confused when Stella mentions "their" phone call, and Stella can sense that something is wrong.



Before they can talk further, Alessandro calls Giancarlo's cellphone and orders him to convince Stella to leave the restaurant with him.




Left with no choice, Giancarlo tells Stella he'd like to move to a different restaurant. Although she's confused, she agrees to go with him. Giancarlo settles the bill, and the two leave the restaurant.




Once outside, they board the car that Alessandro has sent. Stella's fears are confirmed when Alessandro's henchman grabs her by the arm. She turns to Giancarlo and asks for an explanation.




With a guilty look on his face, Giancarlo asks for her understanding.



Alessandro's henchman confiscates their cellphones, before knocking them out with a taser. The car drives away.
