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 have a secret.

♪ Miraculous! Simply the best! ♪

♪ Up to the test when things go wrong! ♪

♪ Miraculous! The luckiest! ♪

♪ The power of love, always so strong! ♪

[Rock music]

[singing] My miraculous!

[clapping]

So, what do you think of my new album?

Can you feel it, Bob? Isn't it k*ller?

Not bad, Jagged, not bad,

but if you really want
to make something k*ller,

let's talk about this duet with Mr XY.

No way, he's not a rocker.

He's a baby. I bet he doesn't even shave.

This "baby" just pushed you
off the No 1 spot.

And? Doesn't make him
a true musician like me.

Penny thinks everything I do is k*ller.

Penny's your agent but I'm your real boss.

Bottom line is that Bob Roth Records
cannot afford to be No 2

or rep a No 2 rock star.

Get real.
You have to modernise your music,

change your look, get a new style.

You wanna talk real?
I'm a genuine rock 'n' roller, Bob,

not some popstar in diapers.

I'm an artist with real talent.
Even my hair's real.

That's what people love about me.
Isn't that right, Fang? Yeah.

The artwork you did for my album
is a waste of my time.

Seriously, Bob? What is this trash?
It looks like a perfume ad.

That's what people want these days.

Well I don't.

My album covers exude the smell
of sweat and leather.

If your next album doesn't rank
No 1 in the charts,

it'll be your last
with Bob Roth Records!

I'd rather do nothing
than sing a pathetic duet with

a baby-faced nobody.

Jagged and I had an idea.
Its concept is modern

but it also respects
Jagged's own "rugged" style.

The girl who made
these glasses has real talent.

She gets my style.

She'll design the cover of my new album.

A schoolgirl?

See? That's just it.

She's the same age
as the target audience.

Here's her address.

[he groans]

[snarling]

OK. But think about that duet
with Mr XY.

Find that girl, Bob!

[Bob] So, are you interested?

[Marinette] Wait,

let me get this straight.

You want me to design
the album cover for Jagged Stone?

My... all-time favourite singer?

That's right, requested
by Jagged himself.

I brought a few visuals
so you can get an idea.

This doesn't seem like Jagged,
more like a perfume ad.

It's the direction
of his new image, more modern.

Really?

I was thinking more...

Don't think.
This is what is selling these days.

Sure.

We're in a hurry, we need a proposal
by the end of the day.

You up to it?

Yeah, OK.

[Bob] See you later then.

[Tom] My daughter, famous designer.

You're gonna k*ll it, Marinette style!

Boo-ya!

[electronic music]

[she groans]

Why does Jagged Stone want
to change his style?

XY's music is so... cold
and lifeless, repetitive, mundane...

The total opposite of Jagged's.

And what I've just done is...

so not my style, either.

So why're you doing it, then?

That's what I was asked to do.

Follow your gut feeling,
do something that's really you.

But you heard what Mr Roth said,

"This is what's selling these days".

Yeah, but Jagged Stone wanted you
because of your style.

[groaning] The pressure... I can't deal...

Marinette, superhero,
defender of the innocent,

fighter of all the rights,
can't deal with the pressure?

[electronic music]

What happened to the raw
impulsive artistry that make this?

Yeah, about that... Mr Roth told me...

She represents our target audience.

Her modern concept is
exactly what you need.

It looks like the cover of that YZ guy.

Don't listen to Bob.

Can you do another one... Jagged-style?

Yeah, sure...

But I don't know if...

You're my girl, Marinette, remember,

raw, impulsive artistry.

-We're all done here, Bob.
-No, we are...

[snarling]
[Bob whimpers]

[Penny] Come, Marinette. Don't worry.

Just do your best.

[snarling]
We are not...

Why am I No 1?

Simple, it's all about technology.

This computer produces music
and lyrics people will like.

It's guaranteed success.

You knocked Jagged Stone off
the No 1 spot.

What do you think of him?

Jagged Stone?
The "Hero of Rock n' Roll"?

Try "Ragged" Stone.
He's old school, a has-been.

Me? Old school? A has been?

His career is over now.

He'll never be No 1, not while XY here.

Why you... little perfume ad!

My music is k*ller.

He's stealing my catchphrases!

Mr XY will be giving
a very special one-time concert

from the Eiffel Tower

to celebrate his album's success
and thank his fans.

Ragged, wanna hear
what today's music sounds like?

Come to my concert.

I'll get you a front-row seat, old man.

He can't say that!

He's an insult to rock, and me!

[rock music]
[munching]

I feel a disharmonious soul,

an angry discord.

ideal prey for my evil Akumas...

Go find that Jagged Stone

and rock his world!

[rock music]

Guitar Villain, I am Hawk Moth.

I'm giving you and your crocodile
the power to show the whole world

that you are the No 1 rocker.

Just make sure you get me

Ladybug and Cat Noir's
Miraculouses in return.

Yeah, let's rock.

Hey, Marinette. Hey, hi.

Hey...Oh,

What's going on?
I mean, how's up? I mean...

[she sighs]

Adrikins!

There you are.

Amazing Chloe has a surprise for you.

She knows you're a fan of Jagged Stone.

I am.

So... you get a private meeting
with your favourite star.

He's staying right here in daddy's hotel.

Is Chloe the best? Is Chloe the best?

Did you hear that?

Chloe speaking in the 3rd person?
Totally... annoying.

No, the part where Adrien likes
Jagged just like me.

Now I definitely can't
mess up the artwork.

So now what?

I'm going to design
Jagged Stone's album my way

and no one else's.

Way to go. Follow your instinct.

[questioning sigh]

Talking bag,

new technology... imported from Japan.

You and I like the same kind
of music, isn't that awesome?

I thought you liked Mr XY.

Of course. Don't you?

Not really.

Well, neither do I.

See? We have the same great taste.

A duet with Mr XY
will prove that Jagged's still...

[gasping]

From now on,
you can call me Guitar Villain.

I'll never do a duet with Mr XY.

In fact, soon,
there won't even be a Mr XY.

Rockin' Riff Baby!

[rock music]

Soon, there'll be nothing
but Guitar Villain fans.

The one and only rocker.

Such symphony to my ears.

It won't be long before

Ladybug and Cat Noir show up
to meet their doom.

Hurry, Adrien. Get me outta here.

[she gasps]

Yeah, Guitar Villain.

Plagg, claws out!

[gasping]

Rockin' Riff, baby!

[Rock music]

[squeaking]

Rockin' Riff, baby!

[rock music]

Hey, Jagged, try and rock my world.

The name's Guitar Villain, pussycat.

Awesome Solo!

Awesome Solo!

Welcome to my fan club.

[rock music]

[rumbling]
[she gasps]

Do see what I see, Tikki?

If you see a dragon, then yes I do.

I've gotta transform.

Tikki, spots on!

Cat Noir, you OK?

Good to see you, milady.

Cat Noir, your stick!

[he yells]

[he chuckles]

You're wasting my time.
I've got a concert to get to.

We've gotta follow him.

His power comes from his guitar.
We've gotta stop him from playing.

I won't let you do this solo.

[electronic music]

You're an insult to the music world, XY!

An hologram?

[whimpering]

Where's the real XY?

He's not here.

The concert's not till tonight.

I'm just setting up the special effects.

Awesome Solo!

[rock music]
[exploding]

Where's Mr XY? Answer me!

On TV. He's at the TV station.

Rockin' Riff Baby!

[gasping] You again?

To the TV studios, Fang.

He'll get there before us!

We'd better make sure
he doesn't find XY.

[Mrs Chamack] Kids plus TV,

how can I help?

Ladybug says we're in danger.

Mr XY, we have to leave now.

What the heck?

Ladybug said you're not safe.
Hit the credits.

[dramatic music]

Where's that studio?

[Receptionist] Third... floor.

[frustrated sigh]

Awesome Solo!

[Alec] Everything will be fine.

It's just a precaution.

We must get you to safety.

What's he gonna do,

blow me away with his "evil guitar solo"?

YES!

We'll catch him,
and get you to the Eiffel Tower

in time for your live concert.

[puffing] Who cares?

My roadies can project my image.

Live concerts are so 10-minutes-ago.

[cackling]

[whimpering]

Good job, Fang.

I've found you at last, XY.

Ready for the show?

Dude, are you Jagged Stone?

Was Jagged Stone...
Now I'm Guitar Villain!

[he laughs] Don't worry,

you don't deserve to become
one of my fans.

I've got something special
in store for you

something with a little rock 'n' roll!

No!

[Cat Noir] Back to square one.

We're in for quite a concert. You ready?

To Rock 'n' Riff, baby!

[rock music]

[cheering]

[cheering]

Hello, Paris!

You said your music is

the only k*ller music around,
is that right?

I-I d-didn't mean it.

Listen, Mr... Guitar...

we can...do the duet your style.

[whimpering]

[whimpering]
[cackling]

Too late. I'm going to show you
what k*ller music really is.

Ultimate Solo!

[rock music] Stop, please.

[Ladybug] XY's gonna fall!

Talk about being
between a rock and a hard place.

[yelling]

Easy, easy, nice dragon.

Enough already,
we've got a stuffed kitty to rescue.

[Cat Noir]
Well, the bug mastered the dragon.

How d'you like the concert?

Still think your music is
the only k*ller music?

N-No. Please... don't.

[whimpering]

-Awesome Solo...
-Not so fast!

[dragon roars] My dragon?

Ladybug, Cat Noir, hurry!

Nice job.

Too late.
Nothing can stop Guitar Villain.

Rockin' Riff Baby!

We only rock to the real Jagged Stone.

The Akuma must be in his guitar.

How we gonna get to that?

[Ladybug] Let's go backstage.

Where did they go?

[groaning]

You OK?

Too bad.
They're gonna miss the final song.

[cackling] Solo!

[whimpering]

Are you scared?

Or is it too awesome for you?

Please, Mr Guitar Villain.

Lucky charm!

-Extreme fixing gel?
-You plan on doing his hair?

[rock music]

Actually, yes!

Go get him, Cat Noir!

Maybe you haven't heard it properly.

Cataclysm!

Awesome Solo!

[he groans]

[he screams]

I can't see! Where are my fans?

[XY] Hey,

don't forget me!

[screaming]

[he squeals]

Music's over, Akuma.

Time to de-evilise!

Rock 'n' Roll!

Bye-bye, little butterfly.

Miraculous Ladybug!

POUND IT!

What's he doing here?

He came to tell you that
you've underestimated his music

This guy's crazy!

Thank you.

How about an autograph, Jagged?

I still have work to do. Bug out!

[they gasp]

Don't do your victory dance
just yet, because one day,

I'll play you my favourite music,

the anthem of your defeat,
Ladybug and Cat Noir!

[rock music]

Done!

Jagged Stone will love it.

I hope so, it's 100% Marinette.

It's my... awesome solo!

[Tikki] Rock 'n' Roll!

Yeah, this is it.

You did it, girl.

I can almost smell
the leather and sweat

radiating off of this design.

[he sniffs]

You actually are smelling it.

I made a scented sticker
for your album.

I want it. I gotta have it.
It's authentic. It's original.

It's...so jagged.

No, you can't. It's not what...

Fine, then I'm outta here.

I'm sure another record company
would be perfectly happy

with a No 2 chart-topper.

[Bob huffs]

[excited squealing]

I've just designed the cover

for Jagged Stone's new album.

I'm so proud of you, Marinette

Jagged Stone's new album
hit the charts at No 1,

knocking Mr XY off of his throne.

Welcome back, King of Rock.

Hey, Marinette.

I'm a huge fan of Jagged Stone's

and I saw you designed
his album cover.

I-I did. Crazy, isn't it?

I wanted to ask if...
I could get it... autographed?

O-OK, sure... I'll ask him.

No... actually, I meant you.

Me?...Me?

If you wouldn't mind.

Awesome! Thanks, Marinette.

[growling]

Did I imagine it or did you sign
an autograph for Adrien?

I can't feel my legs.
Hold me up. I'm gonna fall over.

Is he still around?

It's OK, he's gone. You can fall over.

This is the happiest day of my life.

[Marinette] Rock 'n' Roll!
