Episode 11.4
Barbara tries to convince Rita to spy on Lavinia... to find out what appearances she has and more importantly, how much money Lavinia is making. Rita tells Barbara that she's caught in the middle of Barbara and Lavinia -- a rock and a hard place. And that she's the one who gets hurt in the process. She pleads with Barbara to stop all the conniving.
Dorina finally resorts to hiding in one corner of the hotel to get some peace and quiet. Adora finds her hiding there and Dorina tells her the party isn't as enjoyable as she had imagined it would be, even though it was a great party and she felt like Cinderella in her gown. She says she didn't eat well because she's not used to the food that was served. Adora sympathizes, and as she asks where Emilio is, she comes up with an idea that is guaranteed to cheer up her daughter.
Rosamia is back at home and still grieving the loss of her daughter Emilia Rose. We see flashbacks of scenes leading up to her first encounter with Emilio at the debut as Rosamia curls up in bed crying.
Adora, Dorina, Emilio, and Bencho escape to a nearby Jollibee store to enjoy a meal. While they are there, a number of street kids crowd around the windows, happy to see their idol, Dorina. Dorina reminisces about the old days when she and Adora would be just like the kids, eager for a glimpse of their idol. She talks about the things she would do just to see Rosamia. Dorina tells Adora she never realized how pitiful they looked.
After a moment of staring at the kids, Dorina asks Adora for money, and in the next scene, we see the street kids all sitting at the table with them, eating their own Jollibee meals.
The next day, Rosamia visits Dorina at her home to present her with a birthday gift. She tells Dorina that she has learned so much from her, that Dorina has restored her faith in the goodness of people.
Barbara and Lavinia prepare to meet Oscar. Barbara asks Rita if she'd like to come with them, but Rita says no... she's no longer involved in anything related to Lavinia's career. Barbara admits that they are being aggressive with Lavinia's career, but that's only because they are at a critical point. She says that once this crisis has passed, they can all be more relaxed.
Rita tells Barbara she thinks that time won't ever come. Back when Lavinia was starting out, they had to work hard so she could establish herself. When she became popular, they had to work hard so the fans would stay loyal. Now that Lavinia is on top, they have to work even harder still, just so she doesn't lose her place on top. So when will they actually feel it's safe to stop and finally relax? Barbara has no answer.
Before Rosamia leaves, Emilio enters and the estranged come face to face once again. Rosamia asks Dorina what Emilio is doing there and Dorina reveals that Emilio is her driver and bodyguard. Dorina asks if they know each other, and Rosamia merely makes her excuses and leaves.
Oman notices the old chessmaster once again outside the church. The two are happy to see each other once again. The old man explains that he prefers to be back in the city because he can at least visit the places he and his wife used to go to together.
Oman reveals that he has not made any headway with Dorina. He says the situation has changed, that Dorina's circumstances have changed, while he's still exactly the way he was. The old man tells him that love does not choose time or bank accounts. It just happens. Oman says he still doesn't know if Dorina loves him. The old man tells him that as long as he does not act, the gap between them will only grow larger. He urges Oman to confess his true feelings.
Dorina realizes there's more to this than she knows and she asks Emilio just what his relationship is with Rosamia. He says he has no relationship with Rosamia. Left with no choice, Dorina tells Emilio she needs him to drive her somewhere.
Oman borrows a guitar from a neighbor and resumes practicing on his own.
Now in the car, Dorina asks Emilio to drive her to Rosamia's home.
Adora brags to her neighbors and customers about how beautiful Dorina was at her debut. Minda notices that she seems to be in pain and asks what's wrong. Adora complains about a pain on her right upper arm. Minda checks and tells her there appears to be another mass or bump.
Adora wonders why she's getting pimples and blames the new laundry soap she's using. Minda tells her the bump seems too large to be a pimple. Adora says maybe it's time she should consult a dermatologist, since she's under a lot of stress right now because of Barbara. She asks Minda if it's possible that Barbara has placed a hex on her.
Rosamia greets Dorina at the gate but glares at Emilio. When Dorina asks her point blank just what is going on between her and Emilio, Rosamia reveals that Emilio is the good-for-nothing husband who lost her baby Emilia Rose.
