BanG Dream! Ave Mujica episode 11, titled Te ustus amem., unfolds with Uika's theatrical performance that unveils her true identity and past. Viewers learn that Uika's true name is Hatsune Misumi, the secret daughter of Sakiko's grandfather, Sadaharu Togawa, and the caretaker of their family villa, who was born while he was grieving the loss of his wife.

Sadaharu invited Hatsune's mother to live with him, but fearing the consequences of their connection being exposed, she raised Hatsune alone. Later, she met Hatsune's foster father, and they had a daughter, Uika, who dreamed of becoming an idol in Tokyo.

However, Hatsune always felt like an outsider in her family. When she learned of Sakiko's visit to the island, she longed to meet her but was forbidden by her mother, who feared the truth would be revealed. Despite this, she secretly followed her sister's stories about Sakiko. On Sakiko's last day on the island, when Uika fell ill and couldn't meet her, Hatsune pretended to be Uika and spent the day playing with Sakiko.

Tragedy soon struck when Hatsune's foster father passed away, prompting her to run away to Tokyo to reconnect with Sakiko. There, she was scouted as an idol and adopted the name Uika to gain Sakiko's attention, even listing Sadaharu as her father in her agency's records. During her grand debut, she encountered Sakiko's father, Kiyotsugu Togawa.

His kind words moved her, leading her to reveal her father's identity and express her gratitude, believing her success was thanks to his support. However, this revelation led to unintended consequences.

Kiyotsugu confronted Sadaharu, urging him to take responsibility for Hatsune, ultimately resulting in his own downfall. Though guilt-ridden over causing Sakiko's father's fall, Hatsune still accepted Sakiko's offer to form a band.

The narrative then shifts to the present, where Sadaharu orders Hatsune to return home. After leaving with Sakiko, he instructs her to sever ties with Hatsune and reveals his decision to send her to Switzerland. He forbids her from attending school or leaving the house until all arrangements are finalized.

That same night, Hatsune returns to the island while Sakiko desperately tries to contact her, only to be met with silence. The following morning, an incoming call briefly raises Sakiko's hopes, but they are quickly crushed when it turns out to be Umiri, questioning why both she and Uika missed Ave Mujica's practice.

She also reveals that Uika/Hatsune has vanished—she stopped attending school and is not at home either. Episode 11 concludes on a melancholic note, with Uika/Hatsune standing alone on the island's beach at night.
