Episode: 11
Luke asks Aria to stay at her birthday party while guests sing and mock her. A loose white puppy runs into Aria, knocking her into a champagne glass tower. Aria falls onto the floor, and glass cuts deeply into her arm. Sophia cries over a tiny scratch from the puppy, so Luke rushes her away. He casually tells an assistant to take Aria to the hospital. Mocked by party guests, Aria grabs a glass shard and retaliates.
Luke questions Aria about leaving her own party. A woman in a burgundy dress and a woman in a navy dress mock Aria openly. They clap their hands and push the crowd to sing Happy Birthday around her.
A small white puppy darts across the banquet hall floor. It runs straight toward Aria and sends her tumbling backward into the champagne glass pyramid. Aria lands on the broken glass, and shards slice open her arm, leaving her bleeding heavily.
Luke's wife wails about a tiny scratch from the puppy and asks about rabies. Luke ignores Aria's bleeding arm and rushes Sophia out of the hall. He casually tells an assistant in a grey suit to take Aria to the hospital.
The party guests laugh and claim a parasite cannot compare to the cute puppy. Aria stands up from the floor, grips a sharp shard of broken glass, walks directly to the woman in the burgundy dress, and strikes her across the cheek.
“This party is for you. Are you really leaving now?”
“Luke, Aria scratched me... Am I going to get rabies?”
“Our little Aria is so cute. A parasite could never compare.”
“You just said... you couldn't tell us apart?”
Aria slaps the mocking woman across the face while clutching a jagged shard of broken glass. Bleeding from her arm, she stares down the stunned party guests with a cold smile and asks if they can tell them apart. Will anyone in the room dare to challenge Aria after this sudden retaliation?
