Episode 9 Plot: Arte learns she will tutor Katarina in noble etiquette, but is surprised that Katarina has already mastered etiquette but hides this from her parents. Arte then learns from one of the maids, Daphne, that all Katarina's tutors eventually quit because of her attitude. The next day, Daphne takes Arte to a Venetian church to view the paintings. Arte is insulted by two male apprentices and Daphne is surprised when Arte is unaffected. Deciding to take more drastic steps, Arte forces Katarina to play games outdoors, which she greatly enjoys. Arte learns from Sofia she struggles to connect with Katarina as she was raised mostly by servants in another city, and her husband, Malta, is only interested in his sons. Later that night, Arte learns Katarina studies cookery in secret. The next day, Katarina is surprised and confused when Arte keeps her secret. She confronts Arte who reveals her mother burned her drawings so she sympathizes with Katarina's fear she will be kept from doing what she loves. Realizing she can trust Arte, Katarina decides to tell her everything over a meal.
