Which of the following descriptions BEST shows how a mirror relates to Estelle's character in No Exit? Estelle trusts her reflection in a mirror is the truth, but is afraid her reflection in Garcin's eyes will reveal who she really is. Sartre is using a mirror as a metaphor for the judgment given by "oneself." Inez is acting like a gullible lark, and Estelle is acting as her lark-mirror. Estelle is practicing "bad faith" by needing to physically see her reflection in a mirror as proof of her existence.

The best answer is the final one.

In "No Exit," Estelle needs a mirror because she doubts she exists unless she can see herself. This behavior is another example of what Sartre says is "bad faith." This is an example of bad faith because Estelle, having no faith in herself, needs something external (i.e., a mirror) to define herself, instead of looking inward.
