Pollux :
I love this episode, revealing how the loss of his own identity contributed to his self-deprecation and lack of self-love in the series, during childhood, he saw himself as someone special, charismatic, and capable of standing out, building his self-esteem around this image, however, as he grew up, he realized he wasn't as extraordinary as he imagined and that other people possessed abilities he didn't have. Instead of accepting his limitations as a natural part of maturing, he began to see them as proof of his own inadequacy, thus, he developed a fear of failure, shame of disappointing others, and a tendency to avoid situations that threatened his self-esteem, deep down, his suffering didn't just come from ceasing to be the best, but from believing that without being special, he had no value, this happens a lot today, and then the conversation with his parents helps him realize that he doesn't need to be extraordinary to deserve love and that his worth doesn't depend on his achievements, in this way, the scene represents the beginning of a reconciliation with himself, and he begins to understand a little better that he can be imperfect. To fail and still deserve to live, to be loved, and to keep trying, this episode is so relatable in so many ways...
