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.

Seriously, girls, I've tried
multiple times, right?
Mmm-hmm.
Of course, in the beginning,
it was a total disaster.
- I can't do it. I can't do it.
- Ugh!
No, you don't, girl.
You've been stalling all
morning. Now's the time.
Aaah!
(Embarrassed laugh) Hey!
- Hey!
- (Laughter)
One of your best Marinette
moments ever, no doubt.
But over time
I've gotten better, no?
Like that time you were amazing
at the Trocadéro?
But we could take you home
if you wanted.
No, it's OK.
I'll take a coleslaw home.
Thanks.
OK... Enjoy your meal, then.
See you at school tomorrow.
(Laughter)
Fine.
So I've made zero progress.
That's not true, Marinette.
You and Adrien are now friends.
- That's progress!
- Is that true?
- We're still friends?
- Of course.
But to be safe, maybe
we should stop playing pranks.
(Chuckles) I know.
I'm not good with jokes.
The girl I'm in love with
hates 'em.
The girl that you're...
you're...
you're in love with?
Becoming friends
is the worst thing that could've
happened.
(Mumbles)
But you're special friends.
You can't have love
without friendship.
(Groans) OK.
Adrien needs to see me
in a new light,
as more than
a fuddy-duddy buddy.
Not a clumsy, babbling girl
who trips over her words.
I need to be different, so
I'll be the girl of his dreams,
the one!
Then we'll finally be together!
I'll jump for joy! We'll dance
in each others' arms!
He'll sweep me off of my feet.
Whoa! Aaah! Then we'll marry,
have three kids
- and a hamster named --
- Marinette!
Named Marinette?
That'd be weird!
Girl, you don't see
the beauty of your flaws.
Your awkward, gaga goofiness
is what makes you special.
Don't try to be someone else.
Be Marinette.
Ever wondered
if you can recycle old socks?
Try today's special
in the cafeteria!
(Laughter)
- (Laughs)
- See, dude? I told you!
- Hilarious, right?
- Uh... Ha, ha!
Right. Really funny, Nino.
Gotta show you more. It's insane
that you don't know Harry Clown!
(Nino laughs)
I've always loved Nino's
sense of humour.
Of course!
Laughter is the best medicine.
If I can make Adrien laugh,
I know he'd fall for me!
- NINO: Later, dude!
- See ya, Nino!
(Laughs)
Why was Adrian laughing?
Come on, Nino, tell me! Please!
Chill, girl! It was Harry
Clown's sketch about cafeterias.
- It's so funny! Heard of him?
- Of course!
He's a customer! He always
comes to buy bread at : PM.
Which is right now!
Uh... no problem!
Thanks, Sabine!
Have a nice day, Tom!
- Phew, you're still here!
- Marinette?
Harry, how much longer will you
be doing your new act in Paris?
My final performance is tonight.
Oh, sh**t.
Well, that's that, I guess.
But you've already seen it
with your little family.
(Laughter)
Actually, it's not for me.
It's for... for this boy
in my class, Adrien Agreste.
He's a big fan and I thought
he'd have liked a chance
to go to your show.
We could have laughed together,
side by side...
You're just a little bit crazy
about that boy, huh?
Oh! No, no! I'm not! Ha, ha!
Why would you think that?
Never mind. I would've never had
the guts to invite him anyway.
Even if I did, his father'd
never let him go out
- on a school night.
- Well, I know Gaby pretty well!
- Gaby?
- He designed the costume
- for my first act, years ago.
- Gabriel Agreste made that?
- Wait. You know his father?
- I'll talk to him.
I promise, at the closing night,
I'll have two special guests,
you and your classmate, whom you
don't have a crush on at all!
Seriously?
Oh, thank you, thank you!
But, uh, what'll you say
to convince him?
Because,
Adrien cannot suspect anything.
- Trust me, Marinette.
- (Parents laugh)
Why would Adrien
want to see you on stage?
Because I'd like to offer him...
a role in my next movie!
Super Fry Saves the Day?
This will be
my most personal film.
I wrote it all on my own.
I even made drawings.
I've brought back the character
from my first show.
Remember, Gaby?
You did the costume!
I thought we agreed
never to mention that again.
In the film, Super Fry must save
the day with his hero friends,
Camembert Justice
and Wonder Potato!
A superhero comedy?
Of course not, my dear Gaby!
I'm done with silly jokes!
This is a serious movie,
with strong emotions, love,
sadness... and a real,
proper villain, like Hawk Moth.
I give you the power
to be an evil French fry!
- Eh?
- Hmm.
I'm meeting with
my producer tonight
to present the project.
If Adrien were there,
I could introduce
them after the show!
I'll have to approve the script
if the project happens.
Of course, Gaby!
And I want all photographs
of the Fry costume I designed
- to disappear.
- No problem, my friend!
(Jubilant laughter)
No one will ever
take him seriously.
- He said yes! He said yes!
- He said yes! He said yes!
I hope you can get
your film produced!
Thanks to you,
I'll sit next to Adrien
at his favourite comedian's
show! We'll have so much fun!
Laugh together. I could even
tell him some jokes!
Except I don't know any jokes.
He'll never find me
as funny as you!
Laughter is serious business,
Marinette. But, I'll help you.
Aren't you meant to prepare
for your meeting?
Don't worry, my friend.
Super Fry
always wins in the end.
(Laughter)
- Are you sure I can do this?
- We've rehearsed
and you're a natural.
But when I'm alone with him,
I get so flustered and --
You won't be alone.
I'll stay right here.
- What if he doesn't laugh?
- He will. He knows my sketches.
Of course, don't forget to add
the gimmick at the end.
That gives rhythm to the sketch
and lets the audience,
I mean Adrien,
know that it's time to laugh.
- Yee-haw?
- (Laughs) Yee-haw!
- Marinette?
- Ah! Oh! Adrien!
You like Harry Clown too?
Uh...
I've been invited, but I --
Think he'll do
the clumsy sheriff?
Uh... the clumsy who?
Oh! Oh, where did my hat go?
Uh... right there!
Yee-haw!
Oh, right! There it is!
Ha, ha! Oh! silly old me!
- Aaah! Sorry!
- Sorry.
Ah, there it is!
Yee-haw!
(Phone rings)
- Bob! Hi!
- You're supposed to be here!
Of course I haven't forgotten.
Give me five minutes!
- We have rehearsal!
- Yes, I understand, but...
- Get here now!
- Not even two minutes?
- No! Get here now!
- Fine. I'll be right there.
Check out my sheriff's star.
Shiny, right? Yee-haw?
You're acting kind of strange.
Are you OK?
What? No, no, I'm fine.
(Nervous laugh)
Look at the sheriff!
Uh, I mean, the star!
- What did you do that for?
- I'm sorry.
Hang on!
And, at the end, Super Fry,
Camembert Justice
and Wonder Potato get thanked by
the guy they just saved
- and they all cry together.
- Ha, ha, ha! That's too funny!
- Ha, ha, ha!
- No, it's not! It's touching!
It's a serious superhero movie,
Bob.
But you're a clown, Harry.
No one wants you
to make a drama.
It will never bring us in
as much money as your shows.
I'm not doing it for the money.
When I was a kid,
I dreamed of being a superhero.
Ha, ha, ha! Well,
write a comedy sketch about it!
No. I want to speak to my public
in a new way,
to help people dream,
to help them feel
more emotions
than just laughter.
The only dreams I care about
are the ones my piggy bank has
about being filled with money!
Forget about your movie!
It's a bad idea.
Your public is waiting for you!
A comedian
that no one takes seriously.
How funny... and yet so sad!
Time to take centre stage.
Fly away, my little akuma,
and evilise him!
- (Sobbing)
- Oh!
- Marinette?
- It was a total disaster.
The worst day of my life.
Adrien didn't laugh once.
He must have thought
I was so lame!
Your meeting
didn't go well either?
AUDIENCE:
Harry! Harry! Harry! Harry!
STAGE MANAGER: Harry, it's time!
I'm sorry, Marinette.
The show must go on.
Harry! Harry! Harry! Harry!
Harry! Harry! Harry! Harry!
Psycomedian, I am Shadow Moth.
They refuse to believe that
you can create other emotions
besides laughter.
Well, you're going to show
them that no one can play
with their emotions
better than you!
Trust me, my friend. I'll wipe
the smiles off their faces.
(Laughter)
So, it's true.
You'll never take me seriously?
(Audience laughs)
Talk about dark comedy.
Plagg, claws out!
years in the business
and I've never seen this.
A comedian
who doesn't want to do comedy!
Hey, Bob! Wanna laugh?
I've got something for you!
OK.
Tikki, spots on!
Ha!
(Screaming)
Where are you running to, Bob?
- Hey!
- Harry, you owe us a show!
I can fix that!
You'd rather be laughing?
(Laughter)
Or crying? Boohoo!
(Sobbing)
You've lost
your sense of humour, Harry.
I'd like to think I've gained
a wide range of emotions.
From now on, I am Psycomedian.
Cute name. I'm not sure
how I'm "feline" about it.
From now on,
people will take me seriously
- and tremble with fear!
- Don't look at him!
No problem. I don't like
creepy clown faces anyway.
Thanks for the compliment.
The akuma could be
in his red nose!
- I'll take care of it. Catac --
- Wait. We need a plan
to get close to him
without making eye contact.
You wanna play cat and ladybug?
For a comedian,
he's not that funny!
That's his problem. He no longer
wants to make people laugh!
Lucky charm!
A makeup case?
Perfect for going out in style.
Of course! I can defeat him
with my eyes closed.
- You mean... literally?
- Yes.
But you'll have to be my eyes,
kitty!
Clever, Milady.
Huh? You lose, my friend!
That's so sad! Boohoo!
Oh, no! (Sobbing)
Such a beautiful emotion,
Psycomedian.
Seize her Miraculous!
Now, Ladybug!
Boohoo!
Hey! That's not fair!
Cat Noir, now!
Cataclysm!
No more evil-doing for you,
li... What?
Ha, ha, ha! You're just
a couple of amateurs!
- This time, I've got you!
- You're gonna pay for that!
Ooh! It was a bad idea
to get her angry.
Aaah!
- Hey! I didn't do anything!
- Of course you didn't!
- You never do!
- Irritating, right, kitty?
- Milady, things are looking up.
- Hey! Let go of me right now!
- Argh!
- Don't let them get away!
- Ladybug is right there!
- If they want to defeat me,
they'll have to come
and see me play.
And I will choose the stage
for their last performance.
Milady, Psycomedian made you
lose control of your emotions.
- Just breathe, calm down.
- I'm perfectly calm.
You're the one getting on my
nerves with your killjoy advice!
And all these ads, everywhere,
they make me sick!
- Grr! Grr!
- (Alarm sounds)
We're about to de-transform,
we must find --
- Don't tell me what to do!
- Maybe once you transform,
Psycomedian's spell
will be broken.
- Sorry, Milady.
- Grr!
(Furious cries)
(Terrified panting)
Here's Harry!
Don't hurt me, Harry!
I'm your producer!
I'm not here to hurt you, Bob.
I'm here to make you laugh,
as that's all you expect
from me! Ha, ha, ha!
- (Laughter)
- Now you'll take me seriously
- and do my movie, huh?
- Ha, ha, ha! Never!
That's a stupid idea!
Ha, ha, ha!
Read this scene and you'll see
how touching it is!
The only tears your audience
will shed are tears of laughter!
Wanna bet? Boohoohoo!
(Sobbing)
Unless you want to spend
your life crying,
agree to do my film!
Feeling any better?
Can't you leave me alone
for one second?
- Tikki, finish your macaroon!
- You think I'm having fun?
I've been doing this
for thousands of years you know!
(Sighs) Maybe she'll calm down
once she transforms again?
LADYBUG: Let me out of here!
(Furious mumbling)
- (Laughter)
- Who still wears belt bags?
- No joke!
- You're the joke!
Hey! Maybe the akuma's
in something he keeps in there!
Of course that's where it is!
Duh!
But we have to immobilise
Psycomedian to search him.
Set me free already
so I can use my powers!
OK! But I can trust you not to
do anything reckless, right?
Reckless? Professor Reckless
calling me Reckless?
- That's a joke! Grr!
- (Sighs)
Lucky charm!
- Ah!
- Seriously?
Why did you just do that?
It was obvious, for once!
We just had to put it
on his eyes
to stop him using his powers!
Yeah. It was so obvious
that it made me mad! Grr!
And give me
that ridiculous belt!
Hey, leave my costume out of it.
- Hey!
- Give us five minutes!
Have you become blind with rage,
Ladybug?
- Ha! That was funny!
- You...
you're about to regret
making me angry!
(Sobbing)
You got something on your shirt,
kitty?
He's lying! Stay focused!
So, are you done yet, kitty?
Or do I have to do this
on my own, too?
Just a small touch right here...
a little more here...
What? Are you having trouble
colouring inside the lines?
(Battle cry)
There. He's immobilised.
Let's go for the belt bag.
Cataclysm!
There. It's over.
Everyone can go home now!
Time to de-evilise!
Gotcha!
Get lost, little butterfly!
Alright already,
Miraculous Ladybug!
- (Cheering)
- Grr!
- Phew!
- Feeling better, Milady?
Yes. Thanks!
This is a magical charm. As long
as you carry it with you,
you can't get akumatized again.
Oh, thank you,
Ladybug and Cat Noir.
I would have loved to have
a superpower, just like you.
But you do have one, Harry.
- You make people happy!
- Wish I could have
- touched their hearts.
- Joy is an emotion.
Probably the most beautiful
and hardest one to create.
Hey, Bob!
Listen, Bob, my superhero movie
could be moving... and fun too!
People will cry laughing when
they see it! What do you think?
(Grunts)
Maybe you should think about
getting a new producer.
Go on, Marinette,
just be yourself this time,
and everything will go great.
Uh... Hey!
- Hey!
- Listen,
I wanted to apologise
for earlier, in the line.
I was trying to do
Harry Clown's sketch,
but I don't think I have
his natural comedic talent.
- Well, it was a bit awkward...
- Uh...
But you're wrong!
For example, this morning,
when you were talking
to the girls,
you were gesturing wildly,
like this and that.
(Laughter)
Wait a minute.
You weren't laughing
at Harry Clown's sketch?
No. I don't think anyone
can make me laugh
more than
Marinette Dupain-Cheng!
Oh, I make you laugh? Seriously?
Mmm-hmm. Oh!
