| 5 | !! This episode provides examples of: |
| 6 | * HiddenDepths: The resolution of the episode is about Stella's friends helping her realize she has redeeming qualities ''beyond'' her stolen beauty. They name off how she's a brave and confident individual who isn't afraid to speak her mind. Beautifully, it's all topped off when Brandon gives her a simple gift, and Stella appreciates it (not because it's flashy) because it came from the heart. |
| 7 | * {{Irony}}: Brandon's birthday present for Stella was a mirror, which he gifts to her while she's still in the form of a hideous frog monster. So she can't exactly admire her beauty like she previously did. [[Heartwarming/WinxClub Regardless, she appreciates it all the same because it came from him]]. |
| 8 | * SoLastSeason: As the Winx start their third and final year, Faragonda reveals a big change; while they had to earn Charmix last year, this year they must achieve "final transformation", a special new power which will allow them access to fairy dust and power, and the ability to fly better and faster. Said form is required for them to pass their final year and become a fully-powered fairy. To earn "final transformation", they must pass a critical test when the time comes; they will have to rescue someone from their home worlds, and it would require great sacrifice. Since Bloom is the only survivor remaining from her home world, she worries she won't be able to earn hers. |
| 9 | * SweetAndSourGrapes: At the prospect that she may be forever stuck as a frog monster, Stella not only makes peace with her situation, but also appreciates her friends and loved ones. Yes she may not look like she did before, but at least she still has what counts on the inside. As it turns out, her self-acceptance is what breaks the spell. |
| 10 | * TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside: Part of what helps Stella undo the curse is for her to appreciate herself for who she is, if not for how she looks. Despite that she's a frog-looking creature, the other Winx still see her for the brave and confident friend they've always admired, and Brandon still wants to be her boyfriend. |
| 11 | * WhamEpisode: Stella is returned to normal, the Winx start their third and final year at Alfea, and learn of the Enchantix transformation which they must earn to graduate. |
