Episode 9.4

Emilio begins his search for the three Adoras who were former employees of the Madame Rosa Flower Shop. Because the name of their street has changed over the years, Emilio fails to find Adora Pineda, even though at one point he is literally standing just outside her gate.

During their workout, Zossimo reminds Nico that he still owns Rosamia's former home, and that it's now empty. This gives Nico an idea.

Jack is relieved to learn that Rita got home safely and that Barbara still has no clue. He tells her that the band has a mallshow the next day and that it will not be televised.

Rosamia and Dorina continue to bond, with Rosamia even taking the time to prepare a meal for herself and Dorina before one of Dorina's lessons.

Nico shows Rosamia's former home to Dorina, and tells her that it's for her family. It's a small token in exchange for everything that Dorina is bringing in for Zoni Records. He says he'll also assign a van to her. And will provide them with food, clothing, and gas allowances. Dorina is overwhelmed and asks what she's done to deserve all this. He says what he's doing is nothing compared to what she's giving him, giving Zoni Records.

Larry has learned that Dorina has a mallshow the next day, so he has scheduled an autograph signing for Lavinia which will start before Dorina's mallshow. His plan is to delay the autograph signing so that people won't be able to attend Dorina's mallshow.

Dorina shares the news about their new home to Adora. She also remarks that Nico is such a wonderful man, that he possesses all the qualities of the man that Dorina hopes to one day marry. Adora worries and tells her she's way too young to think about getting married. Dorina clarifies that she's not saying she wants to marry Nico himself, just that he's the type of guy that she would want to marry.

Oman is concerned when he hears about Nico's generous offer to use the house. Dorina tells him not to worry, and even invites him to stay with them at the house. Adora agrees that it's a good idea so that there's at least one guy with them. Oman says he'll think about it.

Rita is on her way out of the house when Barbara stops her and asks where she's going. Rita says she's just going out with her friends. Barbara tells her it might be better if she just goes with them to Lavinia's autograph signing. Lavinia intercedes and tells Barbara to let Rita go with her friends, after all Rita has nothing to do at the autograph signing and she'll probably just sit there and sulk. Barbara remarks that Rita has been going out a lot -- she asks Rita to bring her friend to their home so she can meet him/her. Rita comes up with the excuse that her friend's parents are strict, which is why it's usually Rita who goes to her friend. Barbara warns Rita that she better not be doing anything wrong, and reminds her daughter just what she's like when she's angry. Rita assures her that there's nothing going on, and escapes.

Nico is driving Oman and the Pineda family to show his next surprise. He tells them it won't take long and that the driver will bring them to the mallshow afterwards. He pulls over to the side of the street and points out Dorina's new Jollibee billboard. They're all excited.

Emilio returns home to tell Bombi that he's figured out why they can't find Adora Pineda's home -- it's because the name of the street has changed! He now knows the exact correct address. He tells Bombi he will change and go see Adora Pineda right away.

Backstage at the mallshow, Oman broods as he watches Gary and Dorina chatting. He doesn't feel any better when Nico later comes in and fusses over Dorina. He finally can't stand it anymore and leaves the room. Someone comes in and tells them that the show is starting soon, and that they've heard rumors that Lavinia is also at the mall for her own personal appearance.

The mallshow starts, and despite Larry's attempts to draw people to Lavinia's autograph signing, there's a large crowd gathered to watch Dorina and The Halo. When people in line for Lavinia try to leave the signing, Larry stops them by saying they'll be giving away free CDs. When that doesn't work, he says they'll be raffling off tickets to Boracay. Barbara decides to check out Dorina's show to see just how many people are there.

When she reaches the mallshow, she overhears a fan asking his friend who the new female band member is. Curious, she pushes through the crowd until she sees Rita performing onstage.
