I'm happy to report that I am wrong on the first growth being a scape, so I expect the 2nd will not be one either. That's a much better scenario. What looked clearly like a stem was a leaf that was tightly rolled up. It's very warm today and it started unrolling so it doesn't look so much like a growing scape.

I don't mind telling the name. It's supposed to be Cinnamon Faces. I tend to be a bit leery about attributing traits to a named plant until I've verified that it's actually true to name. It's really likely to be Cinnamon Faces since it originated from the hybridizer, but that won't be certain until it blooms. A plant under a name which does poorly and doesn't bloom - or waits a long time to prove it's what it's supposed to be - can give a plant a bad rep if it turns out to be an incorrectly identified. That's a voice of experience. I received another plant last year from a different hybridizer and it did bloom - incorrectly. He was able to verify the correct name. Mix ups do happen and I'm tolerant of them. I just am not fond of speaking too soon. It's just about impossible to correct misinformation in the digital age. If this plant had bloomed last year after I received it and I knew it was correct, I would have used the name.
