Adina, the darling and the whimsical coquette, as a rule, rejects those who loves her. Ingenuous Nemorino sighs and admires Adina, vainly trying to express her the feelings. But the brilliant uniform of the sergeant Belcore makes success, and Adina promises to marry him.

Of course, "the seller of air" has everything. Having received ordinary wine in the form of the magic elixir, Nemorino feels at once his action. The affected indifference which he represents now, forces to pay Adina to him attention. Moreover! With Nemorino all girls around suddenly began to coquet! Nemorino and Adian aren't known simply that the hearing about rich inheritance which was left by Nemorino his died uncle was already carried. Special attention of competitors forces Adina to be jealous.
