05x24 - Revolution

[bunniefuu]

[narrating] 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.

'Cause I've got a secret.

Starting today, super-offenders Monarch,
Ladybug and Cat Noir are outlawed.

But will this last long?

-Of course.
-[Lila on radio] No, of course not.

Uh. Of course not.

We'll be holding a "decromatic" election.

A "decratomic"--
I will speak later in a meeting.

In the meantime, my new robots
will be upholding Chloe's law in Paris.

[Ladybug groans]

-Shall we go?
-We can't do that.

Of course we can.

We have to.
We can't let Chloe make up the rules.

If she were akumatized, it'd be easy.

Find the object, break it, de-evilize her.

But there is no object, and we can't
att*ck someone who isn't akumatized,

or we'd look like the supervillains.

Surely someone will handle the situation.

You're right. Adults, an authority figure.

And we carry on playing our role:
fighting Monarch.

-[Cat Noir grunts]
-[Ladybug grunting]

Spots off.

Finally,
someone young like us representing us.

Superheroes are useless anyway.
They've never been able to stop Monarch.

And who knows? Maybe it's because
they've been on his side the whole time.

A teenager at city hall?

That's absurd. She'd do a better job
at cleaning her room.

[Plagg] Come on. Be brave.

Holding on to bad news can be like cheese.
If you wait too long, it gets stinkier.

But I'm hoping I'll find a way to convince
my father not to send me to London.

Marinette is the most amazing girl
in the whole universe.

You love her and you trust her, don't you?

-Yes.
-Then ask her for help.

Maybe she'll find the solution
you're talking about.

Oh.

-It's a sign.
-You're right. Now's the right time.

Marinette, I--

Have you watched the news?

Huh? [grunts]

She can't be worse than her father.

Besides, it won't be for long anyway.

She said there'll be
a "decromatic" election.

Don't worry, Marinette.
This won't last long.

Someone's bound to do something.
I need to tell you--

Yes, you're right. We gotta do something.
But what?

I'm gonna call everyone.
We'll figure out that something together.

Whoever comes up with an idea first
calls the other one back.

[beeping]

[sighs]
It'll be the right time another time.

Is Miss Chloe satisfied with the police
robots we provided to city hall?

Yes, very. They're a lot of fun.

Ah! You're fired, Jean-Raoul.

These robots are much more competent
than you.

It hasn't even been a day
since you replaced your father

and everything is already resolved.

Ladybug, Cat Noir, Monarch.

All the super-offenders,
as you call them, have disappeared.

Yes. Well, it's not like it was difficult.

[beeping]

It hasn't even been a day
since you replaced your father

and everything is already resolved.

Ladybug, Cat Noir, Monarch.

-You were great.
-Of course I'm great.

That's why I'm the new mayor of Paris.

Did you say something, Miss Mayor?

Why on earth would I wanna talk to you?
Get lost. You're fired.

[painter grunts]

[Monarch] Alliance,
please call Miss Tsurugi.

Chloe Bourgeois is going to make
a mess of everything.

Ladybug and Cat Noir won't be left
with any choice but to step in.

[Monarch] And thinking
that they're dealing with just a teenager,

they won't dare to use their superpowers.

Whereas we won't hesitate to use ours.

And we will easily seize their Miraculous.

Voyage.

Oh! You're under arrest, Monarch.

Give me your Miraculous.

[beeps]

[device pings]

It's all right. I'm only here
to form an alliance with you, dear Chloe.

I'll never form an alliance
with a super-offender again.

I'm the greatest.

[Lila on radio] Accept his alliance.

[groans] Okay. Whatever.
What's this alliance thing about?

No more superpowers
for anyone else but you.

So you'll give me your Miraculous?

Hmm. If I gave you my Miraculous,
you'd become a supervillain.

Yet you yourself have banned superpowers.

How would you look then?

Hmm. That's true.

But I can do much better.

I'll keep my Miraculous
and put their powers at your service

without anyone knowing.

This way, you'll have all the powers
you want without looking like you do.

And you can finally rid us
of Ladybug and Cat Noir.

I'll be the villain,
but I'll look like the hero.

[Monarch] Exactly.

Queen Mayor, I'm giving you and
your robotic elite guard absolute power.

I'm transferring the powers of protection,
migration, determination and action,

as well as the power of pretension,

which will allow them
to become invisible from now on.

[pinging]

[robot beeps]

And they'll still do everything I want?

Absolutely everything.

For as long as we need her.

Voyage.

Today's the day, Plagg.

I'm gonna tell Marinette everything.

[gasps]

Whoa.

This was an idea from Marinette,
Alya and Mylene.

Those girls got skills, dude.

That's for sure, Nino.

We're not letting Chloe call the sh*ts.

Thanks to me, who rid you
of those super duds,

Paris is going to become super fab again.

You'll get to do whatever you want to do
and say whatever you want to say.

[crowd chants] Reinstate Miss Bustier
the great!

What do we say?

What is this?

Since we're free to say
whatever we want to say, Chloe,

we're refusing to go back to class
until Miss Bustier and Mr. Damocles

are reinstated
as our teacher and principal.

[scoffs] Do you really think I care?

[Lila on radio] Whoa. The camera.
Don't forget about the camera, Chloe.

No, sorry.

It would seem like this girl,
who's pretending to be my sister,

and her libertarian friends
who'd rather protest than study,

intend to take the school hostage

in order to force me
to reinstate an evil teacher,

and a principal
who thinks he's a superhero.

[hoots]

Uh, oops.

We're not taking the school hostage.

We're just protesting.

They're not respecting "decromancy."

"Detraumacy." [groans]
You know what I mean.

Yeah, we know what democracy is,
but you obviously don't.

Which is why you better hold elections
ASAP.

These two are threatening me also?

Ooh.
That's not exactly "demacrotic" of them.

People who thr*aten the mayor go
straight to detention, you know.

Chloe, you need to come to your senses.

But I never lost my senses.

And I'll prove it to you.
I remember that you're still fired.

Uh, I mean,

I did what had to be done to protect
the children from your negative influence.

Ah. Dupain-Cheng.
My turn to tell you a secret.

[Lila on radio] No, not now, Chloe.

I've changed my mind. I'll tell you later.

Revenge is a pastry best served cold,
right, baker girl?

[Ms. Mendeleiev]
The ancestors of the Bourgeois

were the ones who discovered the gold

that made all the great achievements
of this world possible.

-[robot beeps]
-[object clatters]

Where did Mylene and Ivan go?

[Cat Noir] Are we still doing nothing?

Well, it's ugly,
but Monarch had nothing to do with it.

Today's the day.
I'm gonna tell Marinette everything.

Adrien! Your father knows
the Bourgeois family well.

You could ask him
to do something to stop Chloe.

Talking to my father won't solve anything.
Because right now--

-Is something wrong with him?
-[helicopter approaches]

-My father is--
-Hey, you, ice-cream man.

Did you pay the permit fee
to sell your ice cream?

I don't need a permit
to sell love in Paris.

Well, now you do.
Otherwise, you'll end up in detention.

-Savor it. It might be my last cone.
-[Marinette grunts]

No way, André.

No one could keep you
from bringing everyone so much happiness.

-You okay, Nino?
-Yeah, dude.

It's just that Alya was supposed
to meet us,

-but she's not answering her phone.
-[Marinette] Mmm.

-[bell tinkles]
-[Marinette grunts]

Where are my parents?

Mmm. In detention.

They wanted to make me pay
for the chouquettes.

Detention? What are you talking about?

Dad? Mom?

Oh. You miss them already?

Why don't you go and join them?

-In detention.
-[robot beeps]

[gasps]

[robot beeps]

[cell phone ringing]

[Marinette on phone] It's Marinette.
Leave a message. Beep.

You two are definitely having a hard time
communicating lately.

She must be home. It'd be better
to tell her in person anyway.

Is anyone here? [gasps]

-Marinette? [gasps]
-[rattling]

[gasps]

[paper rustles]

Chloe.

What have you done?

Adri-nothing. It took you long enough.

Oh. I know what you're going to say.

"Meanie Chloe, I hope
you didn't do anything to the baker girl."

[Adrien gasps]

Oh. I'm so terrified I'll get punished.

-Kidding. I couldn't care less.
-[gasps]

And there's nothing Adri-traitor can do.

Otherwise, I'll tell Dupain-Cheng
that he's been lying to her.

That he didn't tell her he was going
to London to obey his daddy,

like a nice little puppet.

That's right. I know everything.

But it can remain our secret, you know.

You just have to do whatever I want.

And to start with,
I want you to be my deputy mayor.

You're out of your mind, Chloe.

I can have anything I want. Even you.

Unless you'd rather I told the truth
to the baker girl.

You know what?
I'm gonna tell Marinette myself.

You want to join her?

You should thank me
'cause I'm about to grant your wish.

[grunting]

Detention for the traitor.

[gasps]

Ridiculous. You'll always be ridiculous.

[robot] Detention. You're in detention.

Find a corner to sit in
and you can get out.

[Chloe on screen]
I will always be there for you.

But there is no corner here.

We're walking and walking
and going in circles.

How did Chloe pull this off?

-I will always be there for you.
-Marinette! Marinette!

-You can count on me.
-Marinette!

Adrien. Adrien!

-Marinette?
-[Marinette] Adrien!

-You'll always be ridiculous.
-Adrien!

[Adrien] Marinette!

[Marinette grunting]

Let's pretend like we're trying
to destroy those screens.

Mmm.

-[grunting]
-Ridiculous. You'll always be ridiculous.

[grunting]

[Plagg] Put my mind at ease.

You haven't forgotten
that I can give you superpowers, have you?

No, but I need a diversion
so I can use them.

[grunting]

Ridiculous. You'll always be ridiculous.

[Marinette, Adrien grunt]

-I will always be there for you.
-Plagg, claws out.

You can count on me.

Cataclysm!

-Ridiculous.
-[André Bourgeois gasps]

[Cat Noir grunting]

[André Bourgeois] We've found a way out.
[grunts]

-You can count on me.
-[Marinette] Tikki, spots on!

-Ridiculous. You'll always be ridiculous.
-[Ladybug grunting, panting]

[Chloe on screen]
I will always be there for you.

You can count on me.

Everyone will agree
that within a few days,

I've made Paris better than it was before.
Utterly better.

So, if there were an election today,

who would feel justified
in running against me? No one.

Now we step in, right?

Yes, we step in. But she won't take us
by surprise this time.

Lucky Charm!

[Ladybug grunts] Hmm?

A Mirakini? My power can't compete
with your creativity, M'Lady.

Cataclysm!

[Ladybug, Cat Noir grunting]

So, we all agree there's no need
to hold an election.

-[Ladybug] No, we disagree.
-[Chloe] Mmm?

-[crowd cheering]
-[spectator] It's Ladybug!

You see? I was right all along.

They have no respect for democracy.

They have no respect for "detromacy."

And-And-And th-they wanna use
their superpowers to steal my power.

Now is the moment of truth, Tsurugi-san.

The only power that has value, Chloe,

is the power that we use
for the common good of the people.

And you only use your power for yourself.

Who wants an election
to get rid of a dictator?

It's time we teach you
how to say the word correctly, Chloe.

DE-MO-CRA-CY.

[Ladybug, Cat Noir grunting]

Hmm.

[Ladybug, Cat Noir grunting]

[Ladybug grunts]

[gasps] Cat Noir,
the Lucky Charm has disintegrated.

Let me try.

My Cataclysm isn't working either.

It's as if the power of protection

have been mixed with the power of
invulnerability to create these prisons.

Miraculous powers?

Monarch.

So, who's got all the powers now? I do.

I said no one could have superpowers
because they're all just for me.

-[laptop beeps]
-[robot beeps]

-[crowd gasps]
-[Ladybug, Cat Noir gasp]

Stand ready
to regain control of the robots.

Ladybug and Cat Noir are about
to transform back.

I will take care of de-akumatizing Chloe.

Then the Miraculous will finally be ours.

I won. I'm the greatest.

There's nothing you can do now
because I'm akumatized.

It twists my whiskers to say so, M'Lady,
but I don't think she's wrong.

We are kinda stuck here.

We've been waiting for someone
to do something from the start,

but we were wrong, Cat Noir.

It's not up to someone to do something.
It's up to everyone.

-Everyone has to act.
-[Miraculouses beeping]

[gasps] They're gonna transform back.

[beeping]

[gasps, grunts]

No! Not now. Not yet.

[grunts]

M'Lady,
your de-transformation is slowing down.

[gasps]

You can resist too.

We need more time!

[grunts]

We only have a few seconds left
until we transform back.

We won't be able to be superheroes again.

You're gonna have to keep fighting
without us.

You can do it because you've already been
doing it this whole time by supporting us.

Some did it by being Miraculous holders
anonymously by our side.

You all did it by not giving in to fear,
despite Monarch's constant threats.

If anyone can do something,
it's all of you!

-It's always been you!
-[André Bourgeois grunts]

She's right. We have to do something.

But we're not superheroes.

We'll see about that.

Time for The Owl. [hoots]

They're right. Comrades of the Resistance,
it's time to come out of the shadows.

-Comrade Ketchup!
-Comrade Beurre Maître d'Hôtel!

[Ladybug grunting]

[grunts]

It was an immense pleasure knowing you,
Ladybug.

Well, not knowing you, really,

because it looks like
I'm gonna get to know you soon. [grunts]

sh**t, I'm completely botching
my last superhero lines, M'Lady.

Cracking jokes was all
I was ever good for.

You were perfect, Kitty-cat.

[grunts]

[grunts]

Super underpants!

[students shouting]

-[Chloe gasps]
-[Ladybug gasps]

-[crowd jeering]
-[spectator] Yeah! Let's get 'em!

What is going on here? [gasps]

[spectator] We want a revolution!

No! [grunts]

[Gabriel] Come.

[crowd jeering]

att*ck them!

Put them in detention!

[crowd screaming]

Cat Noir, we have to do like them.
We have to keep fighting.

They're not giving up,
and we're not giving up.

And we won't de-transform back ever again!

Never again! [shouts]

How are they doing this?
Why aren't they transforming back, Nooroo?

You don't transform back either.

I am an adult. Not transforming back
is a power belonging to grown-ups.

I guess they must have grown up, master.

No.

[Gabriel grunts]

You're ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!
[gasps]

It's time for this to stop, Chloe.

The Megakuma must be in her sash.

No more evildoing for you. [grunts]

Cataclysm!

Cataclysm! Cataclysm! Cataclysm!

[Ladybug grunts]

Time to de-evilize!

Gotcha.

Bye-bye, little butterfly.

[Ladybug sighs]

Leave it to me.

It is time I corrected my own errors.

Let me go!

I haven't lost yet.

I still have my robots!

Yes!
We're finally free from Chloe the brat.

Paris needs to find itself a new mayor.

Ooh. But how are we gonna do that?

Well, we'll just put democracy in motion.

The citizens are going
to hold an election.

That's a great idea.

I'm sure that the people of Paris
would love to have a mayor like you.

[gasps] But I can't. I'm just a teacher.

No, she's right. You'd be amazing.

We'll help you with your campaign,
comrade. Yeah, I mean Miss Bustier.

Oh, this calls for celebration.

Perfect timing.

The end-of-the-school-year dance
is tonight.

I have to go home and change.

I'll meet you back on the Eiffel Tower.

Same with me. See you later.

Because of you, we've lost face.
You've ruined our name and our reputation.

[Chloe growling]

You had all the powers in your hands,
and you foolishly lost them.

Bourgeois do not raise losers.

You think you're going to London
on vacation? Dream on.

I'm going to take control of your life
again, starting with your education.

[Chloe groans]

Mmm?

Hmm.

Hmm.

[Adrien gasps]

Go pack your bags.
The plane to London leaves in an hour.

Dad, tonight's the end-of-the-school-year
dance. [grunts]

Adrien, I am your father,
and I refuse to hear another word.

[Adrien grunts]

Your powers have evolved.
Do you realize what this means?

You've grown up. You're stronger now.

I wish it were true, Plagg.

I'll try to believe it is anyway.
For you and for Marinette.

You cannot disobey your father,

but don't let anyone stop you
from loving who you want.

[sighs]

Father, please, I know what I want.

Let me live my life here in Paris
with Marinette and my friends.

You must go through with this
like an Agreste.

That's what your mother would have wanted.

No, I'm sure that Mom
would have just wanted me to be happy.

[grunting]

Adrien.

Marinette, I should've told you sooner,
but up until the last minute,

I thought I'd find a solution.

I tried everything, I swear.

Adrien, what-- what's going on?

I have to leave Paris.

I'm not worthy of your love.

I feel terrible for hurting you.

I'm sorry.

-[cell phone beeping]
-[Marinette crying]

I made you a promise, Adrien, remember?

Well, I'm going to keep it.

I'll never abandon you!

[Tomoe on phone]
We have sold enough alliances.

Everywhere in the world,
people are now at our mercy.

Once Kagami and Adrien are safe in London,
we will launch Operation Perfect Alliance.

-[Marinette] Adrien!
-[both gasp]

Stop! You're not allowed to be here!

Adrien!

-[Adrien gasps]
-[bodyguard grunting]

[Marinette grunting]

[Adrien grunting]

You, separate them.

[Adrien, Marinette whimper]

[bodyguard] Mmm.

[crowd cheering]

[grunts]

[cell phone ringing]

Watch it, Chloe. I'm not in the mood.

Good.
Remember the secret I wanted to tell you?

Well, guess what?

Adrien's moving to London.

None of you will ever see him again.

And you will suffer.

-You're ridiculous, utterly--
-Be quiet, Chloe.

I already know your little secret.

I know because Adrien told me.

I also know that he loves me.

And there's nothing you can do about it.
Nothing.

You've lost any and all power over us.
You're the one who's ridiculous, Chloe.

Utterly ridiculous.

Enjoy your trip.

[beeping]

[gasps]
