ACT II-B: CRISIS – Relationships, Self-Perception, and Vulnerability (Or, "Why Can't We All Just Get Along... and Do the Dishes?")

The Mirror That Spoke Back (The Ghost of Therapy Sessions Past)

The attic is a time capsule of forgotten dreams and questionable fashion choices. Miro wipes the dust from an old mirror, expecting only his reflection. Instead, the mirror becomes a portal to his subconscious, where his family members reenact scenes from his childhood with puppets. The mirror cuts deep, but also heals, forcing Miro to confront his inner demons, who turn out to be surprisingly good at charades.

Transition: Morning light streams through the attic window, illuminating a path to self-discovery.
