Episode 3313 Wednesday January 21st 2009

Carla and Stella are getting along really well now - preparing the royal visit of Princess Luise von Waldensteyck, working closely together. Even Carla's family notices this. Stella is doing a fine job, Carla is impressed, more than impressed actually - there are three pivotal moments in the clip:
Stella is a little bit flirtatious when one of the maids accidentally soils Stella's nifty outfit with the dessert, she is very charming, instead of berating the young woman, she tastes the dessert and even commends it. She then turns to Carla and says - "You should taste it as well. It's sensational."
Second moment: Stella changes her outfit in front of Carla (and Gregor). Carla is a bit distracted by the view of the half-naked Stella - and strangely curious at the same time.
And finally - when the royal visitor arrives, Stella and Carla just look at each other, proud and happy that everything worked out so well - but then Carla's look lingers, she cannot tear her gaze away from Stella - and you can just see that something has changed. Carla is in love

I think she so badly wanted to look at Stella while she was changing, but Gregor wouldn't stop talking to her, and she was trying so hard not to look. It was kind of cute.

I like the way the story is progressing so far. Stella is trying very hard to please her professionally and Carla is obviously smitten at this point without a clue how to process that realization. So far, so good.
