Episode 11.3
Dorina ends her ASAP guesting by thanking everyone who has supported her -- her bandmates, Nico and Zossimo (Zoni), Rosamia, Oman, Bencho, Adora, and her fans. Rosamia watches her on TV and is moved when Dorina mentions her.
Dorina's debut is a beautiful, lavish affair. Her 18 roses include Emilio, Gary, Oman, Jack, Chris, Jay, and Nico.
Lavinia watches press coverage of Dorina's debut and sees that Nico is her escort. Barbara enters the bedroom just then, and understands why Lavinia is upset enough to throw a pillow at the TV. She tries to comfort Lavinia.
Dorina is greeting guests and fans when Rosamia arrives. Unknown to Rosamia, Emilio sees her.
Rita enters Lavinia's bedroom with the phone saying it's Larry. Lavinia is still depressed by Dorina's debut and she's not interested in talking to him, so Rita tells him that Lavinia is asleep.
After hanging up, Rita asks Lavinia why Dorina's debut disturbs her so much. Lavinia says that celebrities and fans alike will be there to greet Dorina, to wait for her. Dorina is so well-loved. Lavinia says she never felt that. She may be admired, imitated, envied... but she's not loved.
Rita reminds her that Dorina loved her, but this is no comfort to Lavinia. She asks why this is all happening to her. Rita says that sometimes she's flying so high that she forgets she doesn't have wings and needs to land on the ground to rest. Sometimes, it's necessary for her to be broken so that she has a chance to be made whole again.
Lavinia angrily asks her if she's implying that she's now a has-been. She says she will not accept it. She can lose it all as long as she stays on top. Rita warns her to be careful what she wishes for because she may just get it.... and die of loneliness at the top.
Dorina sees Rosamia and excitedly thanks her for coming. She leads Rosamia to Adora and Nico. They thank her for coming. Rosamia says she heard Dorina on TV and appreciated the way Dorina thanked everyone who supported her. She says it's inevitable that people love her, in the same way that she, Rosamia, loves her. Emilio cannot help but smile as he watches Rosamia and Dorina hug each other.
The party is in full swing. Emilio spends most of the evening avoiding Rosamia. Although she is at the party, Rosamia is not quite able to stop herself from drinking glass after glass of wine, because it is the anniversary of the day she lost Emilia Rose.
At one point, the stress of being in the same room as Rosamia proves to be too much for Emilio, and he leaves the ballroom to smoke a cigarette.
Rosamia is not able to stand the pain of watching Adora's motherly fussing over Dorina. She makes her excuses and says her goodbyes. Dorina notices that Rosamia is a bit inebriated, and she offers to have Mang Emilio drive Rosamia home. Rosamia insists that she can manage on her own and leaves the ballroom. Dorina watches her go with concern.
Outside the ballroom, Rosamia is making her way unsteadily across the foyer, when Dorina runs out calling her name. She also calls for Mang Emilio. At the sound of their names, Emilio and Rosamia turn and finally come face to face, to their mutual shock. Dorina notices the way they seem to recognize each other.
Rosamia angrily asks Emilio what he is doing there. Before Emilio can answer, Dorina asks if they know each other. Rosamia realizes that Dorina is there, says no, and turns to leave.
