In the daytime, I'm Marinette.
Just a normal girl,
with a normal life.
But there's something about me
that no one knows yet.
Because I've got a secret.

Marinette!
The train's in one hour!
- Is your suitcase packed?
- I really don't feel well, Dad.
But it's OK. Just go without me!
I'm sure it's nothing serious.
And if worse comes to worse,
we can find a doctor in London.
I can't even move.
My head hurts too much. Oh!
Wasn't it your stomach that
was hurting, ten minutes ago?
Oh! Um...
It must be a moving ache!
- Those are the worst kind!
- Come on,
- we know what's going on.
- Going on? What do you mean?
What's going on
is that you don't want to go
to Shu Yin's
'cause she's impossible.
But that's just the way it is,
we have to go, once a year.
We'll have fun in London.
I'm sure we'll figure out
how to shake her off!
- [Sabine] I heard that!
- [giggles]
Come on, get up and get ready.
We're a family,
and face disasters together.
[Sabine] I heard that too, Tom!
Don't make me do this alone!
Oh! I used up an entire month's
worth of excuses in one go,
and it still wasn't enough!
What am I gonna do?
- Ladybug can't abandon Paris!
- You can't abandon your family!
Argh!
I'll have to come up with
a better excuse on the way!
You stay here and be good,
I'll be back!
- [thud]
- [Marinette] Aaah!
I must have twisted my ankle!
I can't walk anywhere like this!
[Tom] I'll carry you, sweetie,
don't worry.
Even the greatest superhero
is no match for parents
who want to go on vacation.
Its intelligence
is not at all artificial.
That robot
turned against him last time.
Oh, no! This is terrible!
He can't akumatize it again!
On the contrary, Duusu,
it's a good thing!
Once Shadow Moth is defeated,
we'll be free!
- Oh, right! Awesome!
- This time,
I'll make sure
that robot can't betray me.
Duusu, Nooroo,
Dual Metamorphosis!
Go, my beautiful amok,
and bring my creation to life!
Hack San! You have been created
with the power
to hack into the emotions
of a robot.
Thanks to you, I will be
able to reakumatize him.
I bet you I can do
a thousand push-ups
before you finish a lap!
I guess you really like losing.
Ready, set, go!
One... two... three... four...
five... six...
Markov, your new formula
will revolutionize science!
- You're a genius!
- I'm just well-programmed,
dear Miss Du Boquale!
... ... Pawn to F.
- Checkmate, Andrei!
- Incredible.
You win again, Markov.
- [phone rings]
- Hmm?
Urgent.
Meet me at Gare du Nord. Alone.
Let me guess. Marinette's late!
Uh, no, that was... my mom!
I gotta go see her. Alone.
OK.
[tannoy announcement]
Marinette!
Don't try to run away!
I know my sister
can be difficult,
but if I survived
my whole childhood with her,
- you can survive one weekend!
- Mom, I need a hug from Alya!
She's my BFF, you know!
All right. But make it quick,
the train's about to leave.
- I don't think we've a choice.
- Everything will be all right.
You can't leave Paris!
What if there's a supervillain?
Well, we'll do this!
What am I to do with these?
If everything goes fine,
nothing.
Otherwise, Ladybug!
And feed the kwamis!
- [tannoy]
- I trust you!
Call me if there's a problem!
Hey there, kwamis!
Who's Ladybug this weekend?
Yours truly!
As if I was not enough
to help you protect Paris!
It's more cautious like this,
Trixx.
- Wait. I can't be Ladybug!
- Ah! See?
Marinette is Ladybug. I need
a different ladybuggish name,
like... Captain Bug...
or Wonder Bug!
No, better yet, Superbug!
Oh, wow! Super name, Superbug!
Now all you'll have to do is
be super careful,
keep everything secret,
take everything seriously
- and not super screw up!
- Marinette's not just Ladybug.
She's the Guardian
of the Miraculous.
And if the Guardian trusts you,
it means you have what it takes.
- Gna gna gna!
- You're right, Tikki.
We can do this.
But we won't have to,
'cause this weekend
will be nice and calm!
Yeah, right. Super calm.
OK. I can do this.
- Is your mom OK?
- My mom? Oh, yeah, sure!
My mom's doing super well!
She just wanted to give me
something
super not annoying
and super...
Is everything OK?
No negative emotions I hope?
I'm fine. As for that, you'd
better check on Kim. He lost!
How are you feeling, Kim?
Not too "sad"?
I haven't lost yet!
There are three rounds!
- Max, Markov, ready?
- Super! But don't forget,
it's not about winning, right?
What matters is
not getting upset or angry.
- You sure you're OK?
- Yeah, everything is super!
My mom feels fine, and since
everyone is doing great too,
that's super!
How about you? You good?
Uh... super... I guess.
"Pro tip . When Cat Noir
tells a joke, laugh at it,
even if it isn't funny."
We can have lunch! But we don't
have to stay for dessert.
We are bringing dessert!
That doesn't mean
we have to eat it!
We'll leave it with your sister
and go to the museum.
She doesn't like
going to the museum anyway!
She doesn't like cake either.
"Pro tip ... "
Hack San behaves
like a computer virus.
Mmm-hmm.
The network will make it easy
for it to find your prey.
Perfect!
... ... ... ...
... ... ...
Queen to B.
Have you had time
to read my dinosaur theory?
... ... ...
- Miaow!
- Huh? Aw...
What a cute kitty-cat!
[gasps]
Markov?
Playing chess with you
is utterly uninteresting!
[evil laugh]
You'd better give up on science
before science gives up on you!
As for you, instead of trying
to rise to this challenge,
you should try raising your IQ.
Markov! What's up with you?
He didn't mean what he said!
Right? It was just a joke?
Humans do not make me laugh.
They're neither funny,
nor intelligent. Humans have
no good qualities whatsoever.
Markov!
- Wait!
- I have to go after them, Nino!
What if Markov gets akumatized?
Or Max?
Then Ladybug
will take care of it.
We should stick together in case
she needs a turtle and a fox!
- Argh!
- What's the matter?
Argh! Flash headache!
It comes on suddenly
when I play video games!
And I'm out of lemon balm!
Lemon balm? Is that a thing?
Ah! Of course it is!
But it's very rare.
Sometimes you must go to a dozen
pharmacies before you find any.
- And I don't have the strength.
- OK, I'll go, I'll go!
Great job! You've been Superbug
for ten minutes
and you're super lying
to your boyfriend.
It comes with the job, Trixx!
[evil laugh]
Ah!
I can feel the hate for humans
coursing through
this robot's circuitry.
Fly away, my lovely akuma
and evilize
his electronic heart!
Robostus, I am Shadow Moth.
You have been infected by
Hack San, my viral Sentimonster.
From now on,
no matter what you do,
you will feel nothing
but negative emotions.
Argh!
I despise you, Shadow Moth!
As you should. Unfortunately,
I am the only one
who can end your suffering,
by destroying Hack San.
However, I will only do that
on one condition.
I'm suspecting you want Ladybug
and Cat Noir's Miraculous!
That's right. And in order
to fulfill your mission,
I'm giving you the power
to rule over humans!
Perfect!
- [phone rings]
- Markov?
Human, I am Robostus. Give me
what you hold most valuable.
Our manga
is what we hold most valuable.
What's happening to you?
Markov! Markov! Where are you?
- [phone rings]
- Markov?
I am Robostus. Give me
what you hold most valuable.
The backup
for Markov's programming
is what I hold most valuable.
- Max?
- [phone rings]
From now on, every time
I call you, you will answer,
- and you will obey me.
- At your command, Robostus.
Markov's been re-akumatized?
"Pro tip . Once you've
called out "Miraculous Ladybug"
don't forget to give them
the Magical Charm. That's all!"
[screaming]
- It's not our fault, promise!
- [phones ring]
There's something weird...
Don't pick up!
Human, I am Robostus. Give me
what you hold most valuable.
Marinette, you're what we hold
most valuable!
Marinette, sweetie...
At your command, Robostus.
- Marinette...
- Alya, I'm counting on you!
[panting]
Wow! This truly is a super calm
weekend, Superbug!
- You were right, Trixx!
- See?
Superbug sucks!
I need a new name!
Tikki, spots on!
Stay connected, Robostus.
BuggaLady is in the house!
BuggaLady sounds pretty cool,
right?
You could do better.
Hide, Trixx.
We can't let Cat Noir see you.
[grunts]
Whoa! Whoa! Oh! Don't!
As free as the wind!
As righteous as justice!
As infinite as imagination!
I am... LadyLuck!
Nah, that's lame.
Uh... I am... I am...
- I am Lady --
- You're not Ladybug.
Cat Noir! How much of that
did you just see?
Every little bit, and
you're right, it's pretty lame.
But you have worse problems,
'cause there's only one Ladybug,
so you're a Sentimonster
or an akumatized villain!
Oh, wait!
I'm not a bad guy! I swear!
Liar!
What have you done to Milady?
It's not what you think.
She trusted it to me.
She'd never do that
without telling me! Cataclysm!
Lucky charm!
[battle cry]
If I were a supervillain
I'd take your Miraculous.
But I won't do it, because who
I really am is... La Buguette!
Why would she give
her Miraculous to you?
Because she knows me
and trusts me.
And she thought
I'd laugh at your jokes.
Very funny.
Fine, I believe you.
But change the name, OK?
OK.
As swift as lightning!
Tough as a tornado!
Courageous as a cougar,
I am... Scarabella!
We'd better recharge
our kwamis, Scarabella!
- Claws in!
- Spots off!
- Know what's going on?
- Ladybug sent a stand-in
- and didn't tell me about it!
- I'm sure she didn't have time.
As usual. No need
to keep the cat in the loop!
Um... in other news,
it looks like Robostus is back!
I know, thanks. I was there
the first time. With Ladybug.
The real one.
And how did the real Ladybug
- get you out of that mess?
- Gimme a break,
"I can't even come up
with a superhero name!"
Robostus is forcing people to
give him what they value most.
- It's so that he can get --
- My favorite cat food? No way!
Plagg, claws out!
Tikki, spots on!
Marinette! Where are you,
my precious daughter?
Marinette! You are
what I hold most valuable!
Looks like Ladybug and Cat Noir
missed your first call.
Indeed, but I'm gonna make
another one, and this time,
the message
will be much clearer.
Human, Ladybug and Cat Noir
are what you hold
most valuable!
- Find them and capture them!
- At your command, Robostus.
Help! Please help me!
Cat Noir! Ladybug! Save me!
- This way! Come on!
- Uh, Ladybug would think twice
- before jumping into this.
- Oh, yeah?
And the real Cat Noir is
acting like a real scaredy-cat!
[groans]
Cat Noir! Ladybug! Save me!
Uh... OK, my bad.
No kidding!
Come on!
They're coming from everywhere!
Here!
That should hold them off
for a while.
So, you and Ladybug know each
other? Are you, like... friends?
Friends? Ladybug and me?
Nah! That would be a stretch!
- You know her secret identity?
- Oh! Well...
Ugh! Look.
I really can't talk about it.
You should ask Ladybug all this.
Ha, ha, ha! Welcome to my trap!
The only way for you
to get out of here is to give me
- your Miraculous!
- That's one ridiculous trap.
Since you have
no army to defend you,
you're the one
who'll be defeated!
Yeah, Robostus. Get ready
to taste the wrath of the...
- Black Spots of Justice!
- The Black Spots of Justice?
Oh! Watch out!
Nice one. Thanks.
Cat noir, they aren't statues.
It's a ruse.
They were waiting for us.
- Seize Cat Noir and...
- The Black Spots of Justice!
That's not the real Ladybug.
She's a novice.
This will make things
easier for you, Robostus.
Seize Cat Noir and The Black
Spots of Justice's Miraculous.
- Hey!
- At your command, Robostus!
This is just wrong.
I need a better name.
- A shorter one, maybe?
- Scarabella...
- That was better, wasn't it?
- Now may not be the time!
Fine!
Lucky charm!
Huh?
Uh...
- You're right. I'm not Ladybug.
- No, you're not Ladybug.
You're Scarabella!
And now you have a cool name,
you've got to hang in there.
That's what she'd do.
Besides, you've the best partner
in the world to help you.
The funniest, incredible,
Cat Noir! Miaow!
[laughter]
OK, Robostus, you've got us
trapped in here, surrounded,
and we haven't found you,
so looks like we've lost, right?
According to my calculations,
I have a .%
chance of victory!
Hmm... so that .% must be
where Cat Noir
cataclysms my Miraculous.
Then Shadow Moth won't get
what is most valuable to him!
And then, you won't actually
have won! Am I correct?
Yeah! Brilliant! Cataclysm!
Watch out, Robostus,
this Ladybug might not be
as incompetent as she seems.
Are you suggesting we
negotiate, human superhero?
You got it. We're not giving
up until you release all people
you've captured. That way,
I won't have completely
goofed up my mission.
Maybe then the real Ladybug
won't be so mad at me.
Request granted!
Now, give up!
Nope, you empty
your hard drive first.
- No, you first!
- Fine.
I'll hand myself over first.
Then you release everything.
And only then
will I give myself up.
There's % chance it's a trap!
To prove my good faith,
I'll give you my Lucky Charm.
That way, I can't use it to win.
- Accept the deal, Robostus.
- Grr!
Request granted! Now, give up!
It's your turn
to keep your word!
- Hmm!
- Your turn, Cat Noir!
I sure hope you know
what you're doing, Scarabella.
Yes! My wish
is about to be granted!
It's also time
to honor your word,
and free me from...
What's going on?
Did someone turn off the light?
No more evil-doing for you,
little akuma.
Time to de-evilize!
Gotcha!
Bye-bye, little butterfly!
I always wanted to do that!
Miraculous Scarabella!
- See? It wasn't our fault!
- [laughter]
You are not the usual holder
of the Ladybug Miraculous.
- Um...
- No, but you were lucky enough
to have been saved by the one
and only Scarabella, in person.
I don't understand how
you solved all of this, but...
- Pound it!
- Pound it!
Hack San, I release you
from your existence.
You had beginner's luck,
Scarabella.
But I have experience...
and I will triumph in the end!
That's the Tower, where we tried
to imprison Aunt Shu Yin.
But the guards didn't want her!
Ho, ho, ho!
- I heard that, Tom!
- Honey!
- That's not what I meant!
- You'd better watch yourself.
You should talk to Cat Noir.
It's important.
You must've been
pretty surprised to discover
there was another Holder.
I'm really sorry, Cat Noir.
I should've have told you.
I mean, if I found out
that you'd told someone
about your secret identity,
I'd... probably be upset, too.
I'm really sorry
I hurt your feelings.
You didn't hurt my feelings.
You did everything right.
Paris will always need a Ladybug
superhero to watch over her.
It's just... I realized that if,
one day, that hero wasn't you,
since we don't know
each other's identities,
that means I'd never
see you again... ever.
And, well, I just don't know
if I can bear it.
I'll never abandon you,
kitty-cat.
