Belén's gift to Georgina
Season 3, Episode 21

**The Magic Mirror** is a magical item in the series, a big antique oval wooden mirror given as gift from Belén to Georgina on her birthday in the twenty-first episode of the third season, when she can't be present because she's on trip.

## How it works

The mirror works as a regular mirror when you look at it with both eyes, yet, when you see it with only one eye you can see your heart's desire, your biggest dream, a wish that secretly makes you very happy.

## Belén's letter

"*Georgi,*
Te mando um beso muy muy grande, como regalo te dejo este espejo para que empieces bien el día. No és un espejo qualquiera, és un espejo mágico. Si te miras con los dos ojos te ves como sos, pero si te miras con uno solo te ves como en tus sueños.
Muchos dicen que ma magia no existe, yo creo que la magia la tenemos cada una de nosotros en un lugar cerquita del corazón. Si vos podes encontrar la tuya y compartilrla vas desfrutar mucho mucho mucho deste espejo.
Te dejo un beso enorme. Te quiero. Feliz cumple.*"*

## What every Chufa and Chufo see they look in the mirror with just one eye

Little by little the show reveals uses the mirror as a resort to see what's inside every kids heart.

**Georgina** - Sees herself as a bride getting married.

**Sol** - Sees Belén and Facundo getting married and adopting her as a daughter.

**Nadia** - Sees herself as an acclaimed bailarina

**Mora** - Sees herself on her school uniform living at Rincón de Luz with the other kids.

**Pato** - Sees herself as a tomboy turned into a grown woman, a beautiful princess like Cinderella, with a prince putting the right shoe that fits her foot. The scene is surprising for the show, for we see Pato who first appears in the show dressed as a boy, and behaved like a tomboy, as a teenage girl going through puberty and seeing herself as a grown woman for the first time. *Because You Loved Me*, by *Celine Dion* plays during that revealing scene.

**Caro** - When Caro is alone she looks at the mirror, yet she sees nothing, which denotes how empty she feels inside, and her rage, jealousy and envy towards Mili for being kind, loving and affectionate.

**Jimena** - Tough and practical, Jime says she doesn't dream about anything, yet, as a contrast to Caro, who sees nothing, no dream in her future, Jime sees herself with the neighbor she has a crush, Matias, choosing her over Delfina. Delfina is Jime's antithesis and amplifies her biggest fear. She internalizes insecurities about being a street rat (much like Disney's Aladdin), who is just a poor girl from the streets, with no family, education, and money, while Delfina represents everything she is not, a spoiled rich girl, who is treated as a princess by her family and those around her, a queen bee, who feels superior, entitled, and better than everyone around her. This sets a psychological prescedend in the show to what Delfina represents to both siblings Mosca and Jimena, who both feel attracted or threatened by her, andMosca choosing to like this girl over being protective towards his little sister.
