Milady, look. That boy is saying goodbye to his family. He's leaving his entire

life behind.

There's no other way, Kitty.

Luca Cuffe knows our secret identities.

Are we really sure about that? Has he told you who you are?

Yes. What about me?

Did he tell you who I really am? Of course not. I can never know who you

are, just like you can never know who I am.

What if he's wrong about me?

Cloth in.

Hey, wait!

Don't go, Luca!

I have to go.

Maybe you don't. You say you know Ladybug and Cat Noir's secret

identities, but how can you be sure? Maybe you're wrong, and you're leaving

for Brazil over nothing.

If I stay, I'll only make it harder for Monarch to be defeated by Ladybug. And

you.

Hey, you're not allowed to be here.

Luca, wait!

I have faith in you both, Adrian.

I'll be back soon.

Remember your promise, Marinette.

Adrian!

Can you explain what really happened? Is there a connection between Mr. Agreste

and Monarch?

Marinette!

You know, you can tell me anything, Marinette.

I don't know how much longer I can do this.

I'd like to everyone, Luca. I told them that Gabriel Agreste was a hero, but the

truth is...

He was a supervillain. He was Monarch. What?

My father was Monarch? How could you hide this from me, Marinette? You lied

to me.

You and I are over.

Another nightmare, Marinette?

Not at all. I slept like a log. I feel completely evilized. I mean, energized.

Is everything okay, Adrian? You only ate the cheese.

I'm not that hungry, Natalie.

I understand.

This morning's meeting is bound to bring up painful memories. I can go alone if

you want.

Natalie, I'm his son. I have to go.

Besides, Marinette will be there to support me.

Give Adrian a big kiss from me, okay?

Sure, and many more from Monarch. I mean, from me.

Bye, Mom. De-evilize you later.

Huh?

Love you.

Say hi to Adrian for me.

Thanks for the chiquette, Santa Dad. I mean, Super Dad.

See you tonight, sweetheart.

Marinette, maybe you should consider telling Adrian the truth about his

father. It's eating away at you.

No, I promised Monarch, I mean, Gabriel Agreste, that I would say nothing.

If you keep mixing up your words, you'll end up telling him everything.

Everything by accident.

You're right, Tiki. I have to focus.

But don't worry. I got this.

Knock, knock.

Who's there?

Papa. Papa who?

Papa Korn.

What's wrong, Adrian?

You're as pale as a camembert.

Cat Noir, I was supposed to stop Monarch, but instead my father

sacrificed himself to defeat him. I can't believe he and the hero who saved

the world are the same person.

Like I'm missing something key here to understand. Like who he really was.

Ladybug already told you how it went down, didn't she?

Yes, but I can feel she's not telling me everything.

If only I'd been there when she faced Monarch.

Hold on, Plagg. You were there. You can tell me what really happened.

I was there. I was there. I was inside the black cat ring in a magical energy

state. Kind of like cheese in a fondue pot.

Needless to say, things were a bit blurry.

Come in.

Delivery of chouquettes and marionettes.

Just what I needed. Are you talking about me or the chouquette?

Are you ready to deceive? I mean, leave. I am, now that you're here.

This is the proposal selected by the city of Paris to replace the vandalized

statue honoring Gabriel Agreste.

Similar to the previous proposal, this statue will be financed by Mrs. Tsurugi

and Theo Barbeau will be in charge of creating the sculpture.

Upon reconsideration, the first statue at the Place de Vos Square didn't do

justice to your father's presence. This one will be erected right outside City

Hall and will be more than ten meters high.

Ten meters?

That sounds pretty high, don't you think?

Of course not.

Nothing's too high to illustrate the greatness of your father, Adrian.

A man who was able to combine talent, presence, and courage.

You knew my father? Of course. I worked with him on several occasions. He was

like a mentor to me. A man who defeated evil and poor taste with his nimble

fingers. A man who... Who tried to stop me from loving Marinette.

Sorry.

My father might have been a hero, but I think you're seeing him as greater than

he really was.

Your mom... Dad!

Your dad did save Ladybug.

Don't you remember the taste of his pancakes, Marinette?

As dry and rigid as him.

Are you telling me that he was also a good cook? Such a model father.

I'm sorry. I need to think about it.

What about my statue? All good? You agree to it? We will get back to you

with our answer.

What's going on? Marinette, you knew my father. Can you believe that he could

have been both the man who saved Paris and the man who tried to keep us from

loving each other?

I'm sure he loved you in his own way.

Even though I loved him too, I can't just forget the harm he caused us. And

now hearing the way everyone talks about him, I feel like they're talking about

someone else. I refuse to see him the way everyone else does.

Does that make me a bad son?

No, of course not.

You've done nothing wrong.

If only I'd been there. Maybe I could have saved him.

There's nothing you could have done. How do you know that? Neither of us were

there. Adrian, I... Let's go home, Adrian.

If

you

want, I can cancel my lyre lesson. I mean, guitar lesson.

No, no, go ahead. Stay out of Luca for me.

Have you lost your mind?

You want to tell him that you're Ladybug.

What do you mean?

Only Ladybug would know that Gabriel Agreste was Monarch, not Marinette Dupin

Chang. Well, I could tell him everything at Ladybug. And let him figure out that

I was Monarch's accomplice? We have determined a truth. We're sticking to

it. You need to grin and bear it, Marinette. It's too late to go back.

Everything okay, Natalie? Yes.

Marinette simply thought she lost the keys to her scooter.

Try strumming the strings with your fingers, Marinette. You don't need to

hit them. I swear I sounded better when I practiced yesterday.

I'll akumatize again.

Try again. I'll try again.

Buen día, Marinette. How are you?

Hey, Rupé.

Todo bien. Things are great. Why wouldn't they be?

I'm going for a swim.

You two make such a cute couple. There's clearly a monarch.

Monarch? A spark!

I meant there's a spark!

You can talk to me if something's wrong, you know, Marinette.

No, that's the thing! I can't tell you!

Unless... Of course! I can totally tell you! I'll be right there!

What? Like, now? In Brazil?

Yes! I'll be there in an hour and fourteen minutes! Don't go anywhere! I'm

on my way!

Shall we get breakfast?

I could go for a big-ass evil.

No, thank you. I'd rather be alone for a while.

Luca, I agreed to be your pretend girlfriend to put up the pretense, but

if it's hurting you, don't you think it would be easier if you just told

Marinette the truth?

I already tried.

And how did it go?

I'm sorry, I can't accept it.

What? But... You're the only one I can entrench with it. I'm heading back to

Brazil, Marinette. But Monarch's been defeated. There's no need to go to...

There's a new butterfly villain. I don't want to risk being akumatized and

revealing your and Cat Noir's secret identities.

This is crazy. Why would you get akumatized?

Fath, Gale, Blither.

What are you doing? Marinette, the truth is, I'm not leaving because of the new

butterfly villain.

But then, why are you leaving? You and Adrian finally listened to your inner

melodies. And today, they're forming a beautiful symphony.

I'm happy for you two.

But I'm still in love with you, Marinette.

You're so radiant, so strong. How could I stop loving you?

If I stay, I'm scared this pain will turn the joy I feel about seeing you

together into jealousy and ruin our friendship.

That's why I'm leaving.

Luca.

It's going to be hard being away from you.

Please stay.

Adrian and I will make sure not to be too close when you're around. Just...

Please don't go.

I apologize in advance for what I'm about to do. What are you about to do?

I'm about to lie to you.

For the good of the three of us.

No, no, don't do that!

Then why are you leaving?

Because... I've met an awesome girl in Brazil.

You have? That's amazing!

I'll be your friend forever, Marinette.

You can always count on me.

Luca, what did you tell Marinette?

I couldn't bring myself to tell her anything.

I'm sure you'll get there eventually.

Hmm?

Natalie, I've thought about it. And I think I'd feel more comfortable if there

were no statue.

Understood. I'll take care of it, Adrian.

Hello? Madam Mayor?

Power down!

Did something bad happen, Guardian?

No, Thot. I just need you to lend me your Miraculous for a moment, Luca.

Please.

Marinette, tell me what's going on.

Luca, I lied to the entire world.

Adrian's father wasn't a hero.

He was a monarch.

He made me swear that I wouldn't say a thing so that Adrian would think well of

him in order to protect him. But now, because of that, I'm having to lie to

everyone. Why did you do that?

Because I love Adrian more than...

I don't know,

Marinette. I'm going to ask you something you'll probably find very

strange, but please let me borrow your miraculous.

What? What?

I know things that you don't, and I'm probably the only one who can fix this.

Give me your earrings.

No, no. Tell me what you're going to do, and I'll take care of myself.

Marinette, I love you. You're the strongest person I've ever met, but this

time I'm the one who needs to protect you. You have to trust me. I'm sorry.

I never should have told you any of this. No, Marinette, you don't

understand. Give me your... Marinette, tell me what's going on.

Divide.

What?

But how can he refuse to have a statue of his own father, a worldwide hero?

He probably isn't ready yet. We need to give him time to grieve.

He's such an unworthy son. He doesn't recognize his own father's talent. He

doesn't recognize his legacy.

Hello. Forgive my intrusion, but your anger was so great that it called out to

me. Is someone keeping you from honoring the great man Gabriel Agreste? Yes, his

ungrateful son, Adrian.

I propose we teach Adrian a valuable lesson.

It would be my honor.

And what should I call you?

I have something in mind, but I wouldn't dare.

Please do.

In that case, call me Mr.

Regret.

Adrian!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you just turn down the building of this

statue?

Time to say the magic words, don't you think?

Adrian, get to safety.

Adrian, I'm bringing you back to City Hall.

You're going to agree to the building of my statue and recognize my brilliance.

Natalie!

Natalie, in danger. Plagg, claw back.

Radicalism.

Adrian is still inside.

I'll take care of him. Get to safety.

See, Cat Noir is miraculous.

You bring it back to me, and I'll explain how you can use it to make a

wish to bring Gabriel... To bring Gabriel Agreste back, for example.

What? I can do that?

You want to stop me from playing my role as a father, cat?

You're... You're no one's father!

Cataclysm!

You're just a giant talking statue! Who are you to judge me, you tiny,

insignificant creature?

Oh, no. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cataclysm you. Did you just try to

destroy me?

It really is just a statue. Whoever this akumatized villain is, he's hiding

inside.

Cataclysm!

If you want to be spared, help me find the aggressor. Never!

I could really use a helping paw right now, m'lady.

Stand between me and my son.

Now,

see his miraculous.

No! Clear away the rubble.

I want to see who was hiding beneath the mat.

Mr.

Regret? Put the Miraculous somewhere safe.

What did you do to Captain Noir?

She's vulnerable without a partner. This is your chance.

Ha ha ha ha!

I want to see who Ladybug is.

No, no, no!

Leave her alone!

Adrian!

Who cares? See Ladybug's earrings now! First I have to talk some sense into

this unworthy son.

Education first, I understand.

But remember that we have a deal.

If you were such a good father, then why didn't you want me to have any friends?

You don't know what you're saying, you ungrateful son.

Of course. How did I not figure it out sooner?

Adrian Agreste, use the megaphone on the ground!

Why did you want to control my every move?

What are you talking about?

Why were you always traveling around the world instead of staying with Mom while

she was sick?

Why didn't you want me to meet my grandparents?

I... I didn't.

He couldn't be like that. Why didn't you want me to go to school like everyone

else? Why didn't you want me to be in love with Marinette?

You're lying.

You're talking nonsense.

Why?

What have I done?

Sometimes, it's better to put ideas rather than people on a pedestal. For

you never truly know someone.

This magical charm will help you remember that.

You know what you have to do.

Hurry and take it back to Cat Noir.

Thank you, Adrian.

You've shown a great deal of courage, and I wouldn't have made it without you.

Pound it!

Good thing you were there, m'lady.

I wasn't at the top of my game today.

That's why we're always here for each other, kitty cat.

At least you got to tell that statue how you feel. It won't bring my father back.

And it won't help me figure out who he was either.

I guess I'm gonna have to live with unanswered questions.

Spots off.

I saw what happened at your place. Are you okay?

Everything's back in order, Marinette. I'm fine. Thank you. Are you sure? I

mean, seeing your father again.

It must have been... He was just an akumatized villain. I'm going to be

fine. Really.

Okay. Then, good night?

Good night, Marinette.

At least you're no longer mixing up your words, Marinette. I don't have a choice.

Either I keep it together or everything will fall apart.

Natalie was right.

It's too late to go back now.

Luca knows Ladybug?

Do you think he holds a miraculous?

I don't know, Manoli.

But Luca definitely loves having secrets.
