Hogan is excited about hosting a foreign exchange student. Carla Santin
is from Italy and will be arriving the next week. Jamie can't wait to meet
her new "sister". When they get to the airport, they are very surprised
to find out that Carla is actually Carlo, a rather arrogant looking young
man. Carlo spends his time complaining about American customs and talking
about how much better things are in Italy. At school, Carlo charms all
Jamie's friends and becomes very popular. This makes Jamie very mad because
she has had to listen to his complaints for days. Things become even more
confusing for her when she realizes she's starting to have romantic feelings
for Carlo. |
