People raising their glasses for a toast means unity but fate will always find a way to expose hidden agendas by people who hides behind the mask.

'Bogsssssh!'

[Donny] "Hey watch where you're going man! You just wasted a very expensive champagne! You can't pay for it even working for the rest of your life!" (scolding someone who accidentally bumps him when he's about to drink his glass of 'gout de diamants', losing his grip making the glass fall down and scattered into pieces)

[Madam Vince] "Hmmmm Donny the fake art collector! I did not notice right away. What's your motive for being here? Hmmmmm, hey hey no need to be little someone for being clumsy. Pour him another glass" (asking the waiter to give Donny another glass of champagne)

[Donny] "Geeej! Arrogant people! (Gulo gulp) Ahhhhh, now that's a taste I won't replace for awhile now!" Wohooo let's continue the party!"

[Isabel] "Bring it on!" (Throwing herself to Donny both dancing explicitly)

Watching from a distance...

[Paul] "Julius Cesar, JC but the criminal underworld knew him as 'Donny the con man'. Raised by a normal couple, provided by what they can. Donny grew up on a suburban community located in Mindawide, no one taught him to become a con artist, his born with it. He's not just good looking he is very intelligent as well, making his way to enter big events like these. He works alone and no one knows where and when he's going to hit"

[Leo] "Interesting! Tell me more"

[Paul] "His family already gave up on him! But he's never been caught! There's a rumor circling around that a billionaire business man is cleaning his mess without him knowing"

[Leo] "Billionaire business man? This young man is interesting than he looks, continue"

[Paul] "My source told me that the billionaire is doing it out of conscience for abandoning him as a baby, in short Donny is the billionaire's bastard son!"

[Leo] "And who is this billionaire?"

[Paul] "Don Miguel if I got the name right. The owner of koka-soda"

[Leo] "Marvelous! Hahahahaha I thought stories like these only exists on novels and movies! We can use him, hahahahahaha good job Paul! Now you can drink as many as you want"

[Paul] "Hmmm now this is more I like it! Reaping my reward! But why Donny's story made boss Leo so happy? Hmmmmm what a weird man!"

[Leo] "The captain against his half brother! Classing story! I can't wait to see that moment! Hahahahahaha, hahahahahahhaa" (In audible laughing slowly fading away)

[Divine] "My princess it's almost midnight! Don't feel going home already?" (Still being worried on how Crisminah behaves, gulping liquor glass after glass)

[Crisminah] "Don't you worry we won't turn into mice when the long hand hits 12 o'clock, relax I'm having a good time once in a blue moon. Right madam?" (Turning her head to madam Vince to get some sympathy)

[Madam Vince] "Yeah right! Relax my dear, drink and dance. What could go wrong? We're all having a good time here. Anyways princess I have so many questions but I don't where to start"

[Crisminah] "Oh I love these portion, question and answer! Let's play!"

[Madam Vince] "Sounds fun! How does it work? What are the rules?"

[Crisminah] "Starting from you, you're going to ask me a question and if I don't want to answer it I will drink a glass of whiskey instead. Are we on the same page?"

[Madam Vince] "So the boys are joining?"

[Crisminah] "Well of course they are! Right captain?"

[Jovencio] "I'm in!" (the only words came out from his mouth since the tension between him and Crisminah started)
