MAKE YOUR STORY COUN
He loves me
He loves me not
I love him a lot
With all I've got
In every petal
I see his face
Telling me he loves me
He loves me
He loves me
He loves me
He loves me not
Of course I'm getting my things, Pipe.
I'm almost there.
What? But they're my things.
Do you know how much that's worth?
I bet the landlady
is going to sell it all.
No.
I told you I'd kick you out.
But
No.
You deserved it,
so you'll learn to respect.
No!
No, my Thistle.
It's okay.
At least my beautiful sewing machine
was spared from that tyrant!
It's okay, Thistle.
Soon you'll be as good as new.
How about a selfie?
THE THISTLES
MargaritaLovesYou
Everywhere with Thistle!
Stay with the friend
who looks at you like this
It's so delicious!
I could just marry you.
Don't you see? This is our perfect life.
Let's eternalize it.
"Stay with the friend
who looks at you like this.
Happy day all of you,
but I have the best friend."
MY PIERRE
ME AND THISTLE, ALWAYS
Why is it Margarita
likes thistles so much?
What's that sound?
What sound? It's probably those brats.
That scholarship program
is like a damn circus.
This message is for the useless
security guards.
Could you come here
and escort my undesirable mother out?
She got into my bedroom again.
She still thinks
she's the queen of everything.
It's over, Delfina.
Thistle's curse has fallen upon you!
-Auntie, excuse me.
-Come in.
Have you seen my tablet?
No. I haven't.
Grandma Malala.
I'm not your grandmother, stupid girl!
That's enough!
Be nice to her!
How would you like me to talk?
What happens if I'm mean?
Can you two stop fighting?
Be grateful you have one another.
"Be grateful." That's nice.
She sure is well mannered, right?
Beautiful and polite.
So be grateful.
One day you might need me.
What is that sound again?
It's my tablet.
-Please. Let's go.
-Where to?
Just get out.
Go!
-The bed is so comfortable.
-Sure is.
-I'd like one of these.
-Forget it.
-What are you doing?
-I'm hiding.
-I laugh when I'm nervous.
-Are you insane?
Why are you in my aunt's bedroom?
Wait. I'm going to check
if it's safe to leave.
-What is it?
-Who's that woman? And who's Thistle?
She's my aunt's mother.
A thistle is a plant.
-I know. It's my favorite plant.
-So?
The old lady was talking
about someone named Thistle.
-It was so weird.
-I don't know. Let's go now.
What is it?
-What?
-That freak.
He's taking forever.
He loses it when the eggs
touch the waffles.
Here's freshly squeezed juice.
Here you go.
Great.
Here it is.
-No!
-What is it?
-I don't eat or drink anything orange.
-You don't say.
That's okay.
No oranges for our dear Romeo.
Thank you.
Okay, then. Some oranges for you.
What are you doing?
What are you eating?
That looks delicious.
My bad.
What a freak!
There he goes.
Thank you, Daisy.
I can't thank you enough.
Can you put that on silent mode?
No.
Merlin.
-Merlin texts you?
-What? No.
It's just
Yes, but just because
he wanted to know how I'm doing,
after not being selected.
He's such a great friend. He really is.
I know. Right?
He's so nice, and so sweet.
Since you're such good friends
-You could
-Set you up with him?
Sure. I told you
I'd be your matchmaker godmother.
Do you know what your aunt
and that lady were talking about?
I got the heebie jeebies
listening to them.
Let's just say
that Malala is quite special.
Especially evil?
You should have heard
the atrocities she was saying.
"Thistle is dirty. She's disgusting."
As if a thistle
Look at that.
I didn't know this was a spa.
Can I get my nails done here?
It's just that her friend
ran out of water,
so she took a shower here.
How nice.
Daisy, go to the Hangar.
There's plenty to do.
Get changed. Go on.
Sorry, I'm here.
All right, guys.
Let the first challenge begin.
Yeah!
For the first challenge,
I'll need you to form two groups.
We need her on our side.
I mean, she's Delfy's niece.
That's okay.
Sweetie? Daisy.
Are you joining the best?
Sure.
-Can I?
-Yes.
Of course.
It's easy to be a narcissus,
a rose or a magnolia.
Gardens are always pleased
to welcome them.
Mei.
Mei.
Join us.
Sure. Okay.
Everyone loves a pretty flower.
But there are fields
where the unwanted thistles grow.
There are also invisible flowers,
those that no one sees.
No!
I don't like the groups
you put together.
Change them.
Sure, I'll go.
Then I'll go as well.
Romeo, join us.
That's better. Yeah.
Guys!
For the first challenge,
you'll have to design a cover
for our multimedia magazine.
The theme is bullying at school.
That's redundant.
Excuse me?
Bullying only happens at school.
It's redundant to say
We get it.
You'll have ten hours
to design and execute your ideas.
And keep in mind: transmedia.
Let the challenge begin.
Any news about Margarita?
That's not why I called.
Delfina, that girl is
a walking time bomb.
We have to find her.
Might I remind you
she has two brothers
who could also turn up.
You know what?
There comes a time in life
when we just need to let go.
It helps to see things clearly.
Otherwise, we'd have done all of this
and not be able to enjoy it.
Why did you call?
I'm on the next cover of VIP Stars.
I just wanted to invite you to join me.
Are you asking me
to pretend to be your partner?
Let's give it another chance.
And I'm not asking,
I'm simply suggesting.
I thought it was off the table.
It has been, for a long time.
The truth is
I think we were immature.
We let ourselves
be controlled by our egos.
I must admit,
there have been times when I missed you.
But you also hate me.
Sure, but you know
what I hate even more?
Knowing we didn't enjoy it more.
I had a great idea, but no one cared,
so I'll say it again.
Let's wear white T-shirts,
with phrases on them.
That's so vintage.
I think that we should go
with something really expressive,
or they won't remember us.
How about costumes from other cultures?
I like it!
Pay attention to the kitchen! Thanks.
Yes, I'm sorry.
But just look at the Thistles, Ada.
What?
Thistles? That's what I call them.
What do you call the others?
The Narcissus Narcissists.
No, but seriously.
The Thistles are all over the place.
They don't listen, they don't organize.
The Narcissists
are going to walk all over them.
How about you let the Thistles
and the others
deal with their own challenge?
So you can focus on your own challenge.
I mean, cooking for 30. Thank you.
It's impossible. They'll destroy us.
No. I can tell
you guys are on the right track.
You have potential.
Yeah, it's a disaster.
You need to guide them.
Find out what everyone does best
and mix it like a salad.
For example
Romeo makes awesome sculptures,
so pair him with Otto.
Sasha has lots of ideas,
and they're not bad, but
No, they're bad.
They're really bad.
No one says anything,
because they don't want to hurt him.
He has enthusiasm,
but he needs a little push.
Pair him with Zeki.
They'll do well together.
You should pair with Daisy.
You guys have great chemistry.
It's like you've known us all your life.
Let's just say I'm observant.
What about me?
You
You have a beautiful heart,
and you're good, but mysterious,
and reserved.
That's pretty accurate.
Let's get to know each other
over drinks.
No! No.
Absolutely not. No.
-Are you making me insist?
-Yes.
No! No.
You make the potatoes,
and I'll talk to the Thistles.
-You go
-Yeah.
Talk to the Thistles,
and I'll make the potatoes.
I'll think of something, then.
I'd rather be here,
so those idiots can't copy us.
Copy what?
We didn't think of anything.
But we do. I told you, sweetie.
You suggested it.
I don't know if we all agree with it.
Well, I am.
There's not enough time
for everyone to agree.
Just do as I say.
-Did you get the choreography?
-I did.
I'll follow my own tempo.
Is that right? We'll see.
-Do you want help writing the song?
-I don't write. I improvise.
It's an art.
-Aitana got the visuals ready.
-Well done.
-Fish, help her.
-Sure.
Shall we start?
-Yeah.
-Let's do it.
Don't surrender
I'm here with you
Don't sleep
I'm here with you
My day is already ruined.
I can't start the day without breakfast.
And I didn't have breakfast,
so my day didn't start.
I've offered it all.
Just eat something, so we'll start.
Thank you, but the sandwich
had cheddar in it.
It's way too orange.
Let's do my idea.
I mean, there's no one better
to talk about bullying.
I mean, hello!
You really don't get it.
-Nobody's buying your idea.
-Should we do yours?
I didn't suggest anything.
Exactly, so we should go with mine.
So you live around here?
Is that why you don't stay the night?
Something like that. It's complicated.
They won't let you stay?
Or you don't want to?
Should I ask them
to put the kitchen in there?
I'm so sorry, Ada.
But the Thistles
can't seem to get it together.
Let's see what we can do with this.
Sure.
You're like the butler here. Right?
You know
everything that goes on in here.
Do you know who Thistle is?
Where did that come from?
You know that old lady? Malala.
She said all sorts of unspeakable things
about a Thistle.
What did she say? Malala.
I knew that you would know!
I overheard a conversation,
totally by chance,
and she said all kinds of things
about this poor Thistle.
That woman is so wicked.
How could she speak like that
about Daisy's mother?
Thistle is Daisy's mother?
She can't talk
about the queen like that.
Please, don't say anything to Daisy.
She's been through enough.
And besides,
Flor was such a good person,
so simple and adorable.
Were you friends?
She and I met in Krikoragán,
but we didn't spend much time together.
But, with Flor, things were so easy.
People fell in love with her
in a "jiffy".
That's what she'd say. "Jiffy".
She was always in the kitchen.
She did a little bit of everything.
-She must've been special.
-Very.
Very.
How can it be, that even a queen,
with a heart as big as Flor's,
was treated like a clown?
That is so wrong.
So wrong.
Well, that's enough nostalgia.
Nostalgia doesn't fill the stomach.
So, please, grab the list,
and let's buy all of this stuff.
-Get the bag.
-Sure.
To the right.
Thank you.
I can't understand a thing.
Dear God!
Look what the cat dragged in.
You know me?
Sweetie, of course. Everyone knows you.
They banished you out of that contest
like a stray dog.
Tell me something,
why are you lurking
around my daughter's house?
-I'm not lurking at all.
-Is that right?
I'm just walking
around the neighborhood.
Well, then why don't you look
for other neighborhoods?
Just go somewhere else.
What are you after? What are you up to?
I'm not up to anything.
-You know what?
-What?
So that you don't get all agitated,
I'm going to go.
-Come here.
-No, stop that.
I don't want anything to do with you.
I'll water the thistles.
Although people say
that they're bad weeds,
they're beautiful.
Come here, darling.
Don't be angry with me.
Let me see a smile. Just smile.
There you go! Let's take a picture.
Why? I'm not even famous.
But you are. So famous.
I'm your follower.
I can't stop following you.
Show me those pearly teeth of yours.
There you go.
Get back here.
What are you doing?
It got tangled in your hair.
That's awful.
It got tangled. Can you believe it?
My ring got tangled in your hair.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
I'm so sorry.
What is it?
-Delfina.
-No.
What happened?
Why are you with her? Where are you?
Who's laughing now?
Now you go on and guess
who Mommy is with?
Bring her.
I don't have her.
Do you think I kidnapped her?
What kind of person do you think I am?
It wouldn't be the first time.
I'm too old for that kind of thing.
What I do have,
I think is much better.
I pulled some hairs
out of Little Thistle's head.
From Thistlebug,
possibly Thistle's daughter.
Is this enough to prove
that she's Florencia's real daughter?
Give it to me.
Calm down.
We're almost there.
Okay. You're safe.
-Daisy, you're going to kill me.
-Sorry.
Thank you!
-You deserve the whole universe.
-It's nothing.
You worked all day.
And I wanted your advice.
Merlin.
He asked about my family today.
That's kind of serious.
He wants to know more about me,
about my story.
Sure, Daisy! Tell me more.
No. That's it.
That's such a cute musical box.
Ada gave it to me.
It was my mother's.
It's a song she used to sing.
Thistle?
What?
That's what your aunt's mother
affectionately calls her.
Thistle is my favorite flower.
It's Scotland's flower.
They say when the vikings
were about to invade Scotland,
one of them
pricked his finger in a thistle,
so he screamed and blew their cover.
That's why thistles
take care of their own.
I'm sure your mom takes care of you
from wherever she is.
I don't know.
I don't remember anything about her.
Only what Ada has told me.
Are there pictures?
This was my father.
Maximo Augustus Cornwall the Third.
So there is such a thing as perfection.
That's the cutest King.
He's gorgeous.
This is me.
These were my brothers.
There's two princes?
You don't know about them?
No. I like to think that,
somewhere in the world,
I don't know,
there might be two boys
who don't know they have a sister.
What is it?
I got the heebie jeebies
listening to that.
Never mind. Ignore me.
Since there's no one here, I better go,
because I left a huge mess.
Is that okay?
The Queen Mother is here
to make it all better.
Just hurry.
Do you have what I asked for?
Of course I do.
Show me.
Where is it, idiot?
How do you know it's hers?
It's hers. I pulled it from her head.
I almost left her bald.
Excuse me, but where is it?
It's right here. You get it.
It's cold. Hot. Hotter.
I'll send it to the laboratory
right away.
-It's a pressing matter.
-Do that.
-You and I have pending business.
-Who does?
-VIP Stars. Bye.
-That's right.
-Bye.
-Are you done?
There's the door.
-I'll do it.
-Bye.
Just go already.
Thank you.
Well, that's cute.
You sure know
how to pick the worst ones.
That's sad. The worst of the worst.
-Stay out of it. Seriously.
-How could I?
When will you stop
falling in love with losers?
Mother, are you seriously
saying that to me?
What about the scum
you brought to our house?
Are you talking about poor Bolin?
-Yes, I am.
-God bless him.
-Is he dead?
-I hope so.
I missed being mean with you.
Yeah.
Do you remember?
When we faked a pregnancy
with a stuffed animal.
Nobody noticed!
Mother, everyone noticed.
But five months later. Idiots.
I hope Thistlebug
isn't Thistle's daughter.
-What will we do if she is?
-I don't know.
We'll think of something together,
as we've always done.
-Say it.
-I don't know.
Together.
All right? Together?
Dear Pipe.
I need to tell you something.
You won't believe it.
Daisy showed me some pictures,
and I got the heebie jeebies.
What's all this?
Look at this one.
This one's so fancy.
That one is looking shriveled, but
It's beautiful as well.
-I don't understand. How'd you
-How'd I get it here?
Well, it wasn't easy.
You didn't tell me much about yourself,
but I know you love these flowers.
You and I were so bad!
But the worst of the worst. What was it?
What was it?
It was when you stole Thistle's baby.
She bawled her eyes out.
Like a cat without her kittens.
Remember? Just like her mother.
I'll never forget
how much she cried.
"Give me back my baby."
She'd ask you to sing her lullabies.
Poor thing.
And what did you do?
You sang to her. Idiot.
-The baby changed something in me.
-Of course she did.
That's why we both went to prison.
Dear God.
Poor thing. You see?
You can't be left alone, sweetie.
I turned my back, and what happened?
Thistle's baby made you soft.
You're an idiot
Get out.
-Where should I go?
-Home.
-I haven't had coffee, dear.
-Make some at home.
Go home!
All you do is push me away!
I can't believe it.
This is absurd. Just awful.
I'm taking the magazine.
I get bored in that apartment.
You're really sweet.
Very pretty.
I love it when you speak French.
Yes? You like it?
Yes. I like it so much.
Do you speak French?
Yes.
I speak French.
The language of love.
No.
Why not?
No.
I can't. This would be
the worst kind of betrayal.
-No.
-Why not?
Because I have a boyfriend.
A boyfriend?
It's my boyfriend.
How are you, boyfriend?
No, it's me.
I couldn't pick up.
The Owl was watching me.
Right. I miss you so much, boyfriend.
I cried all day long.
-What?
-I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
I'll get these out of here.
No.
I'll do it later.
Pips.
You won't believe it.
Remember that day? At the audition.
There was a cute guy.
He made me a beautiful surprise.
We almost kissed, but we didn't.
Daisy is in love with him,
and I can't betray her.
You used me to make him jealous?
No, it's the opposite.
I said that so he'd forget about me,
and fall for Daisy.
Whatever. You used me.
It's not nice to use people.
It's better for me to see it now.
I don't want
any unpleasant surprises tomorrow.
Sure. Let's see.
Their idea is to talk about empowerment,
about being strong
in the face of bullfighters.
It's "bullies."
-Bullies.
-That's interesting.
Yeah, sure.
They put together
a cover full of flowers.
The concept is
that everyone is different,
and that there is beauty in diversity.
It's not bad,
but it's like a spring edition
of a cheap cosmetics magazine.
It's easy loving beautiful flowers
in the garden,
but loving thistles is an art.
You can't sleep?
Otto didn't fold his clothes.
He just left them.
I can't sleep around a mess.
Besides, I'm hungry,
and I can't sleep when I'm hungry.
Why didn't you eat?
I wanted to,
but you wouldn't stop touching my plate.
What'd you do to him?
Is he your boyfriend?
You wouldn't let him eat?
Are you stupid?
I'm doing him a favor.
I just want him to man up.
He can't keep acting like a freak.
You can't touch the food.
It can't be orange. Here, Romeo.
Eat the freaking candy!
It's just a color!
Just leave him alone!
-It's none of your business.
-No.
-You want to fight?
-That's enough.
Who do you think you are?
Let's fight, then.
-Then fight me.
-You think you're brave?
You know what you are? A clown.
You're the clown.
That's enough.
That's enough. Stop it. Go.
Let's go! Yeah!
Let's party!
Who is it?
I was just leaving.
I'm going to see my friends play jazz.
I thought maybe you'd enjoy it.
Do you want to come?
I'd never step foot in some dirty bar,
full of smelly hippies.
Don't make me regret hiring you
as my image consultant.
You look beautiful.
Magnus, turn off the lights.
I love thistles.
They remind me
that we can all be beautiful
in our imperfections.
ALONE - ACCUSED
REJECTED - DIFFEREN
Miracles happen every day
If we have the strength
To dream and sway
If we try
And try once more
They appear and transform
What we long for
We learn to be strong
Though wounds remain
Scars marking our soul's domain
With love's power
We break free
The wind arrives
Taking storms to sea
Don't surrender
I'm here with you
Don't sleep
I'm here with you
Don't hide
I'm here with you
Don't stray
I'll lose my way
Don't surrender
I'm here with you
Don't sleep
I'm here with you
Don't hide
I'm here with you
Don't sleep
I'm here with you
SO GOOD!
You were great.
Well done.
The message was only directed
to the victims of bullying,
encouraging them to be strong,
and defend themselves,
but the victims aren't the problem,
the bullies are.
We should be talking to them.
We should let them know
that it's not okay to harass anyone.
It's really interesting what Salo said.
Just great. Let's take a break.
I have to take care of something.
Get ready.
What is it?
I just wanted to tell you
that last night I saw your aunt
looking at the projects,
and I don't think she liked yours.
Really?
I think it just needs little tweaks.
I had an idea. Let me tell you.
Did you even sleep last night?
So forget what I said yesterday.
I'm not wasting
another second of my life
with an old man
who thinks he's a teenager.
There are more pressing matters
than your complaints.
-Such as?
-I have the DNA results.
So? Is it her?
They could not confirm it.
Malala contaminated the samples.
However, it's highly compatible.
But is she or is she not
Thistle's daughter?
It hasn't been confirmed nor ruled out.
I can't take it. It's over.
It's over for me.
She'll destroy me. She'll expose me.
It's over.
The number of viewers is decreasing.
The number of viewers is decreasing!
-Delfina.
-I'm going.
Don't go anywhere.
Let's see what you prepared.
We thought of a garden
with very different flowers.
Of every color.
Where we're all equally beautiful,
but also different.
So, we'll show what bullying does.
It segregates, separates,
casts others aside,
just for being different.
It's over for you, Delfina.
Thistle's curse has fallen upon you!
Does she know
she's Margarita of Krikoragán?
I suggest we tell a story.
But is that Margarita?
It's her.
One day, the truth will surface.
Someone is in deep trouble.
She'll destroy me. She'll expose me.
I don't want to lose
My genuine smile
The dreams I hide
Or spring's gentle light
I don't want to grow up
Hurt and broken
With fears unspoken
Life's pace awoken
Mirror, mirror, please be true
Who am I?
Am I just one
Or are there two of us?
Are we many
All in one?
Who am I
When the day is done?
The invisible
The flawless
The one they desire
Or am I me?
The one who thinks
She doesn't exist
Or the one who shouts
"Here I am"?
No present
Nor past
Just a tale of princesses
With a charming prince
Mirror, mirror
Who am I?
Who they desire
Or am I me?
Who they desire
Or am I me?
I don't want to dream
Of a world in hiding
Awake to live
But today I'm asleep
If upon waking
My life has been stolen
I'll set out to find it
No more lies spoken
Mirror, mirror, please, be true
Who am I?
Am I just one
Or are there two of us?
Are we many
All in one?
Who am I
When the day is done?
The invisible
The flawless
The one they desire
Or am I me?
The one who thinks
She doesn't exist
Or the one who shouts
"Here I am"?
No present
Nor past
Just a tale of princesses
With a charming prince
Mirror, mirror
Who am I?
Who they desire
Or am I me?
Who they desire
Or am I me?
Who they desire
Or am I me?
