After being reprimanded by Ansgar, Stella tells Carla and Elisabeth (Martina Servatius) that she quits
Monday, September 14th, 2009 (3463)
It’s the evening after Leo left for Boston. Carla and Stella are in Stella’s office. Carla tells Stella that she already misses Leo. They sit down on the sofa and start to kiss and make out. They don’t realize that Ansgar has entered the office until he starts clapping.


Carla and Stella are too distracted to notice Ansgar (Wolfram Grandezka)
Ansgar makes some sarcastic remarks, which prompts Carla to ask him whether he is envious. Ansgar of course denies this, then asks Stella whether she had arranged for his new suit to be picked up from the tailor. Stella replies that she has not, but will see to it. Ansgar asks her to also order some of his favorite cigars and have them delivered to the Holding, before – after another snarky remark – leaving them alone.

The next morning, Carla takes Stella with her to the dining room and announces to Ansgar that from now on, Stella will eat with them from time to time. Elisabeth is delighted and welcomes Stella, while Ansgar is his snarky self again.

Justus enters the room and is surprised to see Stella sitting at the table. He tells her that something has occured that needs to be taken care of. Stella decides to do it right away and leaves the dining room.

Justus (Claus Thul-Emden) is looking for Stella
After having taken care of the problem, Stella is in the kitchen with some of the staff when Carla joins them. Stella asks her to have some coffee with them, but when Carla sits down at the kitchen table with them, the others get uncomfortable and, one by one, come up with an excuse to get up and leave.

Later, Stella is in her office doing paperwork when Carla comes in and hugs her from behind. Stella tells her that she does not feel comfortable and that everybody at Königsbrunn – both Carla’s family and the staff – seem to watch her closely. Carla asks Stella to sit down with her on the sofa. When Stella does, Carla starts to unbutton her blouse, telling her that she had tasks for all the staff members so nobody would disturb them.



Stella, now shirt-less, and Carla are still making out on the sofa when suddenly the cook enters the room, but fortunately does not see them and leaves again. Carla suggests that they should go to her suite to be alone, but Stella tells her that she will take Carla somewhere else, away from the castle.


They end up in Stella’s apartment and start kissing again when – of course – Stella’s phone rings. It is Ansgar, who still misses his suit and his cigars. Stella makes up an excuse, but Ansgar tells her to take care of it within the next thirty minutes or else not even Carla will be able to protect her.

I think a vacation is in order for those two, somewhere where there are no phones, no bosses, no cooks or butlers. But where there IS high speed internet access, we wouldn’t want them to suffer to much
Stella works in a castle, seriously? How cool is that???
Thanks MeL for the recap.
