Eduardo returns to Stockholm with news of peace. King Carlo announces that his daughter Cristina will marry Prince Giacomo, but Cristina is secretly Eduardo’s wife and they have a young son, Gustavo. Cristina plans to flee; when Gustavo is discovered, she acknowledges him as her son but will not name his father. Eduardo reveals himself as the father, and both are imprisoned.
