Yes her dad was Carlo Hesser years ago and he murdered someone I can't remember and was in prison he escaped. Tina and her prince are not really that they are faking they hid the real prince and princess and are faking to get the jewels. Hope it helps some.
I'm not sure either where they're going with Talia, but I do know that Carlo Hesser is a demon villian from the past, who will surely create terror in Llanview. I've read that he'll try to kill Sarah.
Carlos Hesser is a really bad dude. He has wreaked havoc in Llanview before. I thought he was killed off - but we all know how temporary death can be on soaps :>) I am really interested now in Talia's story.
The info did help on figuring out who Carlos is. My friend thought maybe she remembered him but not the details. Going to be interesting where they take the Carlos/Talia thing. Does Antonio know about him and that he is Talia's dad? I didn't get to see it today as had dr. appt. But will read the update later. Thanks.
