Just a quick Lila Gets Exposed story, proved by our favourite little kwami of destruction.
"Adrien, I made you this delicious dessert!" Lila presented Adrien a round, yellow-coloured piece of food. "I know how much you love cheese."
Adrien winced up a smile. "Thank you, Lila. But I can't eat it. My father will never allow it. He has me on a strict diet."
"Oh, he will! I slaved all night making it!"
(She brought it from a gornment cheese shop.)
"It's an old family recipe. Us Rossis call casu mazu."
Without warning, Plagg shot straight out of Adrien's inside pocket and headbutted the cheesy dish out of Lila's clammy hands, sending it flying into her face.
Lila wailed and ran away.
"Plagg!" Adrien grabbed his kwami and glowered. "What was that for?"
"I was saving your life!"
"Saving my life? She was just giving me cheese! You love cheese.
"I do but not that one! Casu marzu is a cheese but with a dangerous flavour!
"Dangerous? Why?"
"Because it's ridden with maggots!"
Adrien shivered. "Maggots? Why would anyone eat maggots?"
"Apparently, it adds flavour. Look it up!"
"Thanks, Plagg."
Plagg smirked. "Don't mess with the cheese master. Speaking of cheese, get me some! No maggots!"
"Adrien, what is this about you attacking ms Rossi with her gift?"
"Father, Lila told me it was casu marzu and I panicked."
Gabriel narrowed his already furrowed eyebrows. "Casu marzu? Never heard of it."
"It's an old family recipe." Lila fibbed.
Unfortunately for her, Natalie looked up the dish on her tablet and got the correct information.
"Sir, Casu marzu is a traditional Sardinian sheep milk cheese that contains live insect larvae and is banned by the European Food Safety Authority. It literally means 'rotten cheese' in Italian."
With that, Gabriel turned to Lila, quite angry.
"You gave my son illegal, life-threatening, fattening food?"
"Uh…"
"YOU'RE FIRED!"
