Scene: Shadow Moth's lair. Gabriel is holding onto a magical charm. He holds out his tablet while an akuma flutters around his lair, testing if he would be akumatized.
Gabriel: Come here, little akuma, and evilize me! (The akuma flies toward his tablet, only to be blocked by a powerful force created by the magical charm. The akuma then becomes purified as it touches the force field. He opens his tablet) The magical charm keeps repelling the akuma.
Nathalie: (from the tablet, coughing) If Ladybug was able to create a magical charm to counter the akumas, then your power should be capable of evolving, too.
Scene: Nathalie's room.
Nathalie: The Grimoire is clear: the only limits to the powers of the Miraculous are those their holders set for them.
Scene: Shadow Moth's lair.
Gabriel: Duusu, Nooroo, dual metamorphosis! (transforms into Shadow Moth. Shadow Moth places his tablet on the table with Nathalie still on the call. He takes a deep breath as a butterfly lands on his palm and concentrates on his power to create a much powerful akuma. Successfully corrupting a butterfly, it flutters from his hand.)
Shadow Moth: Reverse morphosis! (de-transforms into Gabriel. He grabs hold of the tablet again as he summons the akuma to himself.)
Gabriel: Akumatize me! (For the second time, the akuma flies towards his tablet, but to no avail, as the akuma is repelled and purified once again.) It's no use, Nathalie!
Nathalie: (from the tablet) Don't give up! Force the powers to your will. Don't forget why you're doing this, Gabriel!
Gabriel: Duusu, Nooroo, dual metamorphosis! (transforms again into Shadow Moth. A butterfly lands on his hand, tries to corrupt it with more evil force as a purple aura envelops him, leaving Nathalie in awe inside Gabriel's tablet.)
Shadow Moth: (continues to corrupt the akuma) I... can do this! I want it! (He grunts. Successfully creating a more powerful akuma in his hand, purple lightning streaks began to form around it as it fluttered away from his palm.) Reverse morphosis! (He de-transforms again into Gabriel)
Gabriel: Come, megakuma. Evilize me! (The megakuma flies towards his tablet, persisting through the force of the magical charm until the megakuma destroys it. It finally lands on Gabriel's tablet, who then transforms into the Collector.)
The Collector: Finally!
Nathalie: (from the tablet) You did it! (Gabriel, as the Collector, releases the megakuma from himself and de-transforms.)
Gabriel: I can't wait to see what you'll make of this, Ladybug.
"So, that's the weakness of the magical charms I make? Stronger and powerful akumas called megakumas?" Marinette asked curiously as well as everybody else in which Angel nodded in confirmation.
"Good thing we know this now, so we're about two steps ahead of my father and Nathalie," Adrien noted in which everyone else murmured in agreement.
Scene: Interior, Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie. A timer ticks for five seconds and rings.
Rolland: (blocks Tom's hand from opening the oven) Not with a dish cloth, son! That's not how it's done! (He wears oven mitts. As Rolland opens the oven, a sweet, enticing scent of the galette escapes the oven and Rolland, Tom, and Sabine look at in awe. Tom places the galette on the table and grabs a piece from it, as well as Sabine and Rolland, their eyes widening in satisfaction.) It melts in the mouth!
"That does look good," Kim said as he and most others (especially Tikki) drooled over the pastry being baked on-screen. "What is it?"
"It looks like a galette. Is it Kings' Day?" Tom asked as soon as he recognized the pastry along with his wife.
"Mmm-hmm. A new galette recipe created by both your father and yourself," Angel answered the adult man as she nodded in confirmation.
Tom: And yet perfectly crispy!
Sabine: It's delicious! Congratulations! It's the first recipe you've made together: your own father-and-son Kings' Day galette!
Rolland: The perfect alliance of tradition...
Tom: And modernity! (Tom and Rolland come in for a hug. Sabine opens the bakery.)
"What is Kings' Day?" Kagami asked as well as some others in the audience like the kwamis.
"Kings' Day or Three Kings' Day is a Christian holiday celebrated 12 days after Christmas. It celebrates the three wise men or kings that traveled to visit the baby Jesus Christ to give him gifts like gold." Luka explained the holiday to the Japanese girl next to him.
"And the tradition on that day is that each family gets a galette to eat together. And each galette contains a charm inside. Well, it's not really a charm, it's a bean that we pretend it's a charm. And whoever in each family finds the charm in their galette slice gets to wear a golden paper crown and is named king or queen of the day," Marinette explained further in which those who don't know about Kings' Day nodded in understanding.
Scene: Marinette's room. Tikki is found sleeping as the delicious aroma of the galette from downstairs wakes her.
Tikki: (panics) Marinette! Marinette! What's that smell?
Marinette: (half-asleep, voice hoarse) It's a galette. Made for Kings' Day. Every year, same day, same time, whoever finds the charm in their slice gets to wear a golden paper crown. (yawns) Go back to sleep, Tikki. It's too early for a Sunday. (covers herself with her blanket)
Tikki: But I've never smelled something so sweet and wonderful! May I please go and try a little bit?
After seeing the way Tikki acted on-screen, the kwamis then looked at each other in concern, hoping that what they're thinking won't happen.
Marinette: No, Tikki! No one can see you! (The other kwamis start to wake up and come out from different places in Marinette's room)
Wayzz: (from one of the drawers) What's going on?
Stompp: Is it breakfast time yet?
Barkk: Ooohh, I'm hungry! I'm so hungry!
Marinette: (sits up on her loft bed) Oh, okay. I get it...
Scene: Interior, Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie. Tom brings out another fresh galette out the oven. Rolland helps him cook two more, putting the raw galettes on the pan as Tom brings the tray back in the oven. Sabine organizes the galettes and puts them in boxes.
Marinette: (sleepy) Good morning.
Rolland: Oh, it's my baby sweetie pie!
Tom: Did my little girl have a good night's sleep?
Marinette: (yawns) Can I please have a tiny piece of galette?
Tom: Marinette has always loved galettes! (grabs a bread knife to slice the galette before Rolland snatches it away from him)
Rolland: That's not how it's done! The tradition is that first, we sell all the galettes we made, (hands over the tray of galette to Sabine) and then we get to enjoy the very last galette together as a family! Until then, (slides the galette in a box) all the galettes are for the customers. (Tikki, inside Marinette's purse, inhales the sweet smell of the galette. Marinette and Tom share a hearty chuckle as Tom hands her a tray of croissants.)
Marinette: (grabs a piece of croissant) Thanks, Dad! (walks to the stairs, closing the door behind her)
Tikki: Where's the galette thing-y that's giving off that enchanting smell?
Marinette: We're gonna have to wait until tonight for the galette, Tikki. But you can have some of this croissant while you wait!
Tikki: (flies in front of Marinette, blocking and surprising her) I can't wait that long, Marinette! That smell is soooo extraordinary! I have to taste whatever it is, please, please, please?!
"Tikki, you're strangely…impatient there," Marinette asked her kwami in concern along with the other humans in the audience. Meanwhile, the kwamis are beginning to worry even more.
"I guess the galette scent is more powerful and overwhelming than I expected," Tikki said as she laughed nervously, hoping that her certain "problem" hasn't come back along with the other kwamis. The humans just shrugged and turned their attention back to the screen.
Marinette: (chuckles) Alright. I'll go try and get you a piece. I do want to try Dad and Grandpa's new galette! Hide, Tikki! (Tikki zooms in her purse as the both of them head back downstairs.)
Marinette: Um... I was just thinking, maybe I could help you by handing out little samples of the galette to the customers standing in the line outside! It'll help them stay patient!
Rolland: Great idea! (Marinette grabs a tray of sliced galettes on the table and shoves a few pieces inside her purse for Tikki to munch on.) It's nice to see that young people still have a sense of service.
"Sure. That's why I offered to do this," Marinette jokingly said, making the audience chuckle in amusement.
Scene: Exterior, Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie. Marinette distributes the pieces to the customers lined in front of their bakery.
Marinette: Nino! Chris! Happy Kings' Galette Day! (The Lahiffe brothers each grab one piece each from the tray.) A quartet of queens for a Kings' Galette! (Alya, Nora, Ella and Etta grab pieces of galette from Marinette as well.) Enjoy, girls! (She went on with other customers to let them have a taste of the galette made by her family as all of them are put in a trance in savoring the delicious little slices of galette.)
"Looks like the new galette recipe will be a huge hit!" Tom said, excited along with his family that the customers are enjoying the new galette.
Scene: Marinette's room. Marinette comes back with the slices of galette for the other kwamis.
Marinette: Here you go! I brought you all some of that delicious ga— (gasps as she found a lethargic Tikki who finished all the slices of galette she shoved inside her purse) Uhh... I... must've... dropped the pieces! Sorry! (scratches the back of her head. But the kwamis are not convinced enough as they collectively gasp in fear.)
"Tikki, you ate all the galette slices I was saving for the other kwamis?!" Marinette asked her kwami in surprise as well as all the other humans in the audience. Tikki only replied with a nervous chuckle, but now the other kwamis gulped in fear.
"Sugarcube, I think your little "problem" has come back!" Plagg said in concern with the other kwamis murmuring in agreement while Tikki looked at them with a slight frown, but she was also concerned.
"What little "problem" are you talking about, Plagg?" Adrien asked curiously along with the other humans.
"You'll find out soon," Angel said on the kwamis' behalf as she pointed to the screen, therefore bringing everyone's attention back.
Sass: That's not what happened!
Daizzi: Tikki ate them all up!
Tikki: (furious) Me? You're accusing me? (The kwamis huddle together, terrified)
The kwamis: Oh, that's right!
Marinette: (titters) You guys are joking! Tikki would never do such a thing!
Sass: Marinette, you know how much Tikki loves to eat, but do you really understand the Kwami of Creation's appetite for food?
Stompp: It's a gourmet craving of cosmic dimensions!
Sass: The pastry your father and his father created together is exceptional, unique. I'm afraid its impact on Tikki will—
Marinette: You're exaggerating, Sass. It's just a galette.
Sass: I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but I think you don't know Tikki as well as you think you do. (Tikki glares at the kwamis angrily.)
Marinette: What?! Of course, I know her! I can say that I know her better than anyone!
"Really? Better than us kwamis who have been living together on this Earth for millions of years?!" Plagg asked in exasperation with the other kwamis murmuring in agreement.
"Good point," Marinette replied with a sigh.
Tikki: Don't listen to them, Marinette! It's not worth getting upset about when it's so much easier just to go back and get some galette for everybody! (The kwamis gasp in fear and huddle again.)
Marinette: You're absolutely right, Tikki! So, everyone just stay here like good kwamis and Tikki and I will be back soon with some galette for everyone! Okay? (The kwamis, still huddled together, nod together in agreement. Hearing the trapdoor closing, they disperse inside the room in panic.)
Ziggy: We're never gonna get to taste that sublime galette!
Barkk: And we'll be lucky if that's the only consequence of the Great Sweet Tooth's appetite!
Sass: Barkk, Wayzz, since this is an emergency, I'm giving you permission to go out. (Barkk and Wayzz nod to each other and fly outside.)
"Um, are you sure you kwamis are not exaggerating just a little bit?" Adrien asked along with the other humans, both confused and worried about the kwamis panicking on-screen. "So, Tikki likes the galette a lot. So what?"
"Trust us! Tikki's cravings are disastrous! You will not believe what she would do to eat more of the sweets that she craves!" Barkk answered in fear, with the other panicked kwamis murmuring in agreement. The humans then looked at Tikki who was desperately trying not to draw attention to herself.
Scene: Dupain-Cheng Residence, stairs. Marinette goes to the bakery downstairs with Tikki to grab some galette.
Tikki: I'm sorry, but distribution took so long and the galette samples smelled so good. (whimpers)
Marinette: Don't worry, there'll be enough for everybody! There's no need to react like they did. (opens the door to the bakery)
Mayor Bourgeois: (tugging a galette box from Rolland) I promise to erect a statue in your honor in front of City Hall in exchange for your last galette!
"That's the last galette?! Wow, they sold fast!" Alix said in shock along with everyone else.
"Looks like we're gonna have to camp outside the bakery all night, so we have a good chance of getting one," Kim jokingly suggested, craving those galettes himself in which everyone else chuckled in agreement.
"We'll set a galette aside for your family, Chloe," Sabine noted to the blonde girl who replied with a nod after being embarrassed by her father's behavior.
Rolland: That's not how it's done! The Dupain-Chengs eat the last galette (hits Mayor Bourgeois with a baguette continuously) together as a family! (snatches the box of galette and pushes Mayor Bourgeois out of the bakery) Get out of here! Away, you felon! (closes the bakery door) Ahh, so, shall we enjoy this last galette? (A cheerful sound of a motorcycle horn was heard just outside the bakery. The motorcycle parks in front of the bakery with Gina on board. She then takes off her helmet.)
Chloé: (background) Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous! Are you kidding me?
Rolland: (panics, brings down the box of galette and fixes his hair) Gina?
Tom: Mom? (Rolland, Tom and Sabine open the door. Marinette goes to join them as well before Tikki stops her.)
Tikki: Um, Marinette, what are you going to do about... the galette? (points at the galette on the shelf)
Marinette: Don't worry, Tikki. I'll put aside a piece for you and the others. (runs towards the bakery exit)
Gina: Happy birthday, Marinetta! (leans on her motorcycle gift wrapped with a big red ribbon)
"Yep, your grandma got you a motorcycle as a late… or early birthday present," Angel pointed out to Marinette who widened her eyes in shock along with everyone else.
"COOOOOOOOOOL!" Most of the teens in the audience cooed, mesmerized by the motorcycle on-screen.
"Uh uh! No way in heck! You are not riding that, honey!" Tom said to Marinette, both angry and panicked at his mother for giving his daughter a potentially dangerous gift.
"Relax, Dad. I'm sure I'm not ready for a motorcycle yet," Marinette truthfully said to her father, which succeeded in calming him (and her mother) down.
Tom: Mom, Marinette's last birthday was only a few months ago and you were there.
"Not to mention akumatized," Tom quietly pointed out with a frown in which both his wife and daughter frowned at him back, making him look down.
Gina: Oh, this year has gone by a little fast.
Rolland: How can anyone have their head so far up in the clouds?! A birthday's a birthday! A Galette's Day is Galette's Day!
Gina: Who cares? A party is a party! We put candles on the galette and Marinetta will get the present earlier, that's all. (to Marinette) Happy birthday, sweetheart! It's a beauty, isn't it? (Rolland, Tom and Sabine groan) Eighteen hundred cubic centimeters, 2V cylinders, zero to three hundred kilometers per hour in five seconds flat!
"OOOOOOOOH!" The teens in the audience once again cooed, still mesmerized by the motorcycle on-screen.
"It's pretty cool, but still I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet," Marinette pointed out, much to her parents' relief.
"Well, if you don't want it, can I have it?!" Kim asked excitedly.
"You want a pink motorcycle?" Alix asked her athletic rival with a look of disbelief.
"I can easily paint over that and make it look even cooler!" Kim replied with a scoff.
"Besides, if anyone's getting Marinette's motorcycle, it should be me: her boyfriend. Besides, can you imagine me giving my father a heart attack if he sees me driving this?!" Adrien pointed out in which the humans chuckled while the kwamis (except for Tikki and Plagg) looked concerned. "Not literally! It's a figure of speech!" Adrien then pointed out to the kwamis who sighed in relief.
"Well, that's for Marinette to decide. But, a thought for you to consider: I am the one close enough in age to get a license and legally drive it," Luka pointed out to the blue-haired girl.
"Nice try, loser!" Adrien then said to Luka and pretty soon, most of the teens started arguing with each other about who gets Marinette's future motorcycle.
"GUYS!" Marinette shouted, stopping the argument. "I'm not saying that I don't want to keep it. I'm just saying that I'm not ready to drive it yet. But, maybe in a few years and when I actually get a license."
"Sorry," The teens that were arguing quietly apologized in embarrassment.
Rolland: Gina! We're talking about a fourteen-year-old girl!
Tom: There's no way she's going to ride that... thing!
Gina: And why not?
Wayzz: Psst!
Wayzz and Barkk: Marinette. (Marinette looks over Wayzz and Barkk peeking behind a lamppost. The two kwamis pointed at Tikki who is about to get her hands on the box of galette inside the bakery.)
Gina: Nothing is too good for my little fairy!
Marinette: (runs inside the bakery and snatches the box of galette from Tikki) Tikki! What are you doing?
Tikki: I was just trying to... g-get a... sniff of this fabulous galette! Ah! (zooms into Marinette's purse. Marinette's family enters the bakery, which sends Marinette to fumble over the box of galette she was holding.)
"Sure, sugarcube. It's not like you were gonna eat it!" Plagg sarcastically pointed out to his fellow kwami with a frown in which she replied with a more stern frown back.
Marinette: Ahh! Oh, there you are! (manages to catch the box, nervous) I was... just about to bring this galette to the living room! So we can eat it... as a family! Right? (Gina, Rolland, Tom and Sabine stare blankly at her.)
Scene: Dupain-Cheng Residence, living room. Gina, Rolland, Tom and Sabine sit together on the sofa. While Gina is speaking, Marinette distributes plates to the four of them, putting the plates on the coffee table.
Gina: You may not want to see it but Marinetta is no longer a little ragazza! She's a young lady and she's going to love her Nonna—
Rolland: Nonsense! Marinette will be an adult when she's twenty-one! Until then, she's a child. Allowing her to think otherwise is raising her all wrong—
Marinette: I don't think I—
Tom: You guys didn't come here to argue again?! I know my little girl better than anyone, and I think that huge bike is way too dangerous for her!
Marinette: Hey, I'm—
Rolland: You're right, son. Your mother is irresponsible and dangerous!
Tom: That's not what I said!
Gina: (to Rolland) And what do you know about Marinette, Mr. Grumpy?
Wayzz: Psst!
Gina: You never visited her once in all those years! I know my granddaughter. She's responsible! (Marinette gasps, seeing Barkk and Wayzz hiding behind a lamp to let her know that Tikki is flying towards the galette on the dining table. Tikki was about to take a bite before Marinette slides on the table and the galette slips from her hands, unable to grab Tikki as well. The galette lands on her hands safely with her family finally noticing her strange behavior.)
Rolland: That's not how it's done!
Sabine: What exactly are you doing, Marinette?
Marinette: Nothing! (titters) Don't you think it's time we ate Dad and Grandpa's delicious galette? (sees a hungry Tikki by the corner of the ceiling, about to dive into the plate of galette she is holding) Okay, everybody! Here we go! (places the galette on the coffee table and distributes the plates on their hands) Come on! Yummy-yummy! Mmm, it's so good! (Marinette turns back to see the corner of the ceiling where Tikki was last seen but is now nowhere to be found. She shifts her head around the room anxiously to find her kwami, placing the galette back to the dining table and hides behind a stool.)
Gina: Tom is overprotective of his daughter anyway. Just like his father was with him—
Rolland: That's how it's done! Parents protect their children!
Tom: I don't overprotect my little girl!
Sabine: Yes, you do, Tom! She's not a little girl anymore, you know? (Marinette, in the background, continues to catch Tikki. She climbs up the stairs.)
"How are we not noticing this?!" Tom asked himself and his wife in exasperation towards them being oblivious that their daughter is trying to stop her kwami much to everyone else's amusement.
Gina: Agreed! Which means she can ride the bike.
Sabine: That's not what I said!
Scene: Marinette's room. Marinette quickly closes the trapdoor in panic.
Marinette: Tikki is not acting normal!
"You humans still think we're exaggerating?!" Plagg asked the humans in the audience (who gave wide-eyed looks in shock) with a frown along with the other kwamis.
"OK, so Tikki's acting kind of crazy and reckless. That's probably the worst that could happen, right?" Marinette asked with hope along with the other humans in which the kwamis shook their heads in denial, worrying the humans more.
Sass: It's not as if we didn't try to warn you.
Xuppu: When the Great Sweet Tooth has the munchies...
Ziggy: She becomes out of control!
Marinette: There is still one way to take control of this situation. Tikki, spots on! (Tikki, from downstairs, gets summoned in Marinette's earrings as Marinette transforms into Ladybug.)
"I can understand why you'd think that would stop me, Marinette, but it really doesn't," Tikki said, really nervous for what's about to happen along with the rest of the audience, especially Marinette.
Ladybug: (sighs in relief) That was close! (her stomach grumbles) What's going on? (folds her arms around her stomach...) I'm... (looks at the kwamis, now possessed by Tikki's uncontrollable cravings) starving!
The rest of the Kwamis: Uh-oh!
"So now that I'm transformed, I'm hungry and craving for those galettes?!" Marinette asked her kwami worryingly as well as everyone else.
"Mmm-hmm. When we kwamis get sucked into the Miraculous once you transform, we sometimes take control of your body like your appetite," Tikki nervously answered with the other kwamis nodding in confirmation.
Scene: Dupain-Cheng Residence, living room. Gina, Rolland, Tom and Sabine continue to argue.
Rolland: What Marinette needs is some rules and discipline!
Gina: Nonsense! What she needs is more freedom!
Tom: What she needs is a dad who can protect her from everything!
Sabine: The person who knows best what Marinette needs is Marinette herself!
"And that's how you Dupain-Chengs got akumatized. Apparently, this thing about the motorcycle has become this big argument on how Marinette should be raised," Angel explained the situation in which everyone else nodded in understanding while the Dupain-Cheng parents looked down in shame and embarrassment.
Scene: Shadow Moth's lair.
Shadow Moth: A family divided by the tradition that was supposed to bring them together! How terribly sad! (opens his hand to corrupt a butterfly) Luckily, I just have the recipe to reconcile them! (turns it into a megakuma) Fly away, my megakuma, and once again, plunge this family into darkness! (The megakuma flies out the window, now targeted towards the Dupain-Cheng family.)
"And there goes the very first megakuma out in the field," Angel narrated as the megakuma flew away on-screen.
Scene: Dupain-Cheng Residence, living room. The megakuma breaks the magical charm's protection and enters in the charm inserted in the galette.
Shadow Moth: (from his lair) Dearest Family, I am Shadow Moth. Don't worry, your magical charms won't stop you from getting your powers back. (The magical charms on Sabine and Rolland's hand are destroyed.) Each of you thinks they know Marinette better than the others. To help you figure this out, I'm returning your powers to all of you. (The megakuma's power engulfed Tom, Sabine, Rolland and Gina, transforming them into Weredad, Qilin, Bakerix and Befana, respectively.) Weredad, Bakerix, Befana, and Qilin, may the strongest of you raise Marinette as they please! But in return, bring me the Miraculous of Ladybug and Cat Noir.
"I know he's somewhat familiar with me because I'm in the same class with his son, but it's very unsettling that he's saying my name when he's transformed," Marinette noted about Shadow Moth with a cringed look on her face with everyone else murmuring in agreement. Meanwhile, the Dupain-Cheng parents looked with concern on how they're gonna fight against each other while akumatized.
Befana: I'm coming, Marinetta. (twirls her gun on her fingers) Your Befana will set you free!
Bakerix: That's not how it's done! I'll give you the discipline you need!
Weredad: I'm the only one that can protect my little girl!
Qilin: Marinette! I won't let them control your life! (The four of them race the stairs to Marinette's room.)
Scene: Marinette's room. Ladybug feels the room rumbling as her akumatized family downstairs attempt to open her trapdoor all at once.
Ladybug: (to the kwamis) Quick, hide! (The kwamis find their places to hide as Ladybug gets on her feet up on the balcony. Weredad breaks the trapdoor.)
Weredad: My baby's not here!
Bakerix: (points at the open balcony trapdoor) She snuck out!
Qilin: (to Weredad) You frightened her!
Bakerix: (to Weredad) It's your fault!
Weredad: (to Bakerix) No, your fault!
Befana: (to Weredad) No, it's yours!
Qilin: (to Befana) No, yours!
Bakerix: No, it's yours!
Weredad: It's yours! (The four of them continue to argue. Weredad breaks the roof above Marinette's room.)
Weredad: Marinette!
Scene: Parisian rooftops. Ladybug escapes from her akumatized family. She slips her feet and tumbles on the roof, hitting a wall, sending her exhausted lying on her back. Her stomach continues to grumble.
Ladybug: (whimpers, clutching her stomach) Oh, I'm so hungry! It's impossible to resist these cravings! I need... (sniffs and spots Mayor Bourgeois with a couple boxes of galettes)
Mayor Bourgeois: Finally! I got some! I got some! (holds his boxes of galettes above his head only to be snatched by Ladybug using her yo-yo) AHH! My galettes! (whines) No! (Still above the roofs. Ladybug starts to eat large slices of galette.)
"Yeah, better make that two galettes to go. Looks like Daddy would want a whole one for only himself," Chloe noted to the Dupain-Chengs as she facepalmed in embarrassment towards her father on-screen while everyone else chuckled in agreement.
Ladybug: Did I just steal these? (inserts two slices of galette in her mouth) I've done something terrible! (swallows the galette) What's gotten into me?
Everyone in the audience laughed hard at seeing Ladybug pig out over the galettes thanks to Tikki's cravings on-screen while Marinette and Tikki both blushed red in embarrassment.
Bakerix: That's because you need discipline, Ladybug! Just like my granddaughter! (takes his bottle of yeast, drinks it and becomes stronger. Ladybug evades his attack, leaping to another rooftop.) Give me your Miraculous! (Bakerix continues his attempt to catch Ladybug as she constantly dodge her attacks before she jumps on him and leaps to another rooftop once again.)
Ladybug: (eats another two slices of galette) I can't stop! This galette is so good!
"Seriously?! Your craving is going to gain me some pounds, Tikki!" Marinette said in exasperation of herself not being able to stop eating the galettes thanks to her kwami's cravings. Meanwhile, everyone else continued laughing.
Bakerix: Galettes are not to be stolen, but eaten as a family! Miraculous is mine! (Bakerix grabs Ladybug by her feet as Cat Noir enters the scene, hitting him with his baton before Bakerix could take off Ladybug's earrings.)
"That was close!" Marinette noted how Bakerix almost grabbed hold of her Miraculous as she and everyone else sighed in relief that Cat Noir rescued her on-screen.
Cat Noir: Hey, that looks delicious, m'lady! Save me a piece?
Ladybug: No way, kitty! But thanks for the helping hand! I need you to deal with Bakerix. (puts a few pieces of galette in her arms) I've got an emergency!
"Awww, you won't share, m'lady?" Adrien jokingly whined at that moment in which Marinette responded by shoving him with a frown on her face. Everyone else chuckled at the superhero duo.
Cat Noir: Sure. Piece of cake! (to Bakerix) Don't move or you're toast! (Ladybug runs to an alleyway with the pieces of galette in her arms.)
Ladybug: Spots off! (She de-transforms into Marinette. Tikki lands on her hands full of slices of galette, eating them ceaselessly.)
Marinette: Tikki! What's going on? So, Sass was right? I don't know you as well as... I thought?
Tikki: (looking down) Sorry, Marinette... (looks up to Marinette with a crazy expression) but I need more!
"Uh-oh! Tikki's at her "feral animal" stage!" Barkk said in fear towards more of Tikki's crazy behavior due to her cravings along with the other kwamis.
Marinette: AHH! (Tikki flies away) Tikki, wait! Tikki, spots—
"OK, now Tikki just flew away looking for more galettes to eat. THAT'S the worst that could happen, right?" Adrien asked the kwamis in hope along with the rest of the humans in the audience.
"Not even close!" Plagg answered with the other kwamis murmuring in agreement much to the humans' concerns.
Befana: Marinetta! My fairy!
Marinette: Grandma! (Befana's two white "fairies" corner Marinette behind her.)
Befana: Bravo, my angels! Thanks to you, I'm the one who found Marinetta first! (Marinette cringes)
Scene: Parisian streets. Cat Noir is still being chased by Bakerix. He then gets tackled by Weredad from behind.
Cat Noir: Hey! No fair, attacking from behind!
Bakerix: Hey! I was the one about to take his Miraculous!
Cat Noir: (smiles deviously) Ladybug!
Weredad: Huh? (releases Cat Noir from his arms)
Cat Noir: Ha-ha! I never thought I'd fool anyone with that silly old— AHH! (He gets thrown up in the air by Qilin. He lands on the ground and tries to escape, but it is too late now that Qilin, Bakerix and Weredad cornered him.) Cataclysm! (breaks the ground, taking advantage of the dust he created to escape)
Shadow Moth: (from his lair) Don't let him elude you! Cat Noir's only bought himself some time. He's used his Cataclysm so he'll soon transform back! Follow him! (takes a bite of his galette) His Miraculous will be the charm in my galette. (Qilin, Weredad and Bakerix look down on the hole created by Cat Noir's Cataclysm. Befana flies just above them with Marinette.)
"Really?! He's snacking on a galette NOW?!" Adrien asked in exasperation towards his father on-screen.
"Yep! Our new galette recipe is definitely gonna be a huge hit if our city terrorist is eating them while his supervillains are on the loose," Tom said with everyone else chuckling in agreement.
Befana: (sing-song) I found Marinetta! I'm the one that found her!
Bakerix: Befana found my little sweetie?
Weredad: She's my Marinette!
Qilin: Marinette doesn't belong to anyone! (The three of them leap on the roofs to chase after Befana.)
Shadow Moth: (from his lair, dropping the galette from his hands) No! Come back! (Weredad wraps his vines on Befana's motorcycle and pulls them on the roofs.)
Bakerix: That broom's just like the bike; it's not for kids!
Qilin: There's no way we'll let you impose your bad habits on Marinette!
Befana: You don't know what she needs!
Weredad: I'm the only one who knows how to raise her right! (Marinette makes her escape back to the ground.)
Parisian 1: My galette! Where did it go?!
Parisian 2: Someone stole my galette!
Parisian 3: That weird bug just ate my galette!
Marinette: (shocked, gasps) Tikki?
"So, four supervillains are on the loose in the city, but the major crisis is that "some weird bug" is stealing and eating people's galettes?!" Alix asked in exasperation along with everyone else.
"Well, to be fair, supervillains now happen pretty much on a regular basis and can be easily taken care of by Ladybug and Cat Noir. But, a "weird galette-eating bug" is new," Angel pointed out in which everyone else looked at each other and shrugged in agreement after some thought.
Scene: In the sewers. Cat Noir walks feebly. His back slides down the wall and sits down.
Cat Noir: Claws in! (de-transforms into Adrien He brings out a piece of Camembert to feed Plagg, who is laying weakly on his palm.)
Adrien: Get your strength back, Plagg. We're not out of this yet! (Plagg takes a bite from his Camembert.)
Scene: Jardin des Tuileries. Empty boxes are scattered around the place. Marinette arrives to find Tikki as a man runs away screaming, seeing Tikki finishing off the galettes from cake to crumbs.
Marinette: Tikki! (The kwami continues to feed off the galettes from the boxes.) Tikki, you can't stay here! People aren't supposed to see you! Come with me!
Tikki: I'm sorry, Marinette. I just can't help myself! (puts her hands on her face)
Marinette: You've gotta try to keep it together, Tikki. My family's been re-akumatized! I need you! (Tikki tries to resist but fails, and so she flies to another box, containing a small piece of galette.)
Tikki: Oh, there's only one piece left. It means if I eat it, it'll be all gone! Ohh...! I know how to get more! (grunts as she uses her power, a powerful pink aura of energy surrounding her)
"Oh no! Tikki, don't tell me you're about to…?!" Marinette said as she and everybody else started to panic.
Marinette: Tikki, no! A kwami that uses their power without their owner always causes a disaster!
Tikki: I'm the kwami of creation! (summons a burst of energy, leaving Marinette in complete shock) LUCKY CHARM! (Using her power of creation, a large beam creates a ginormous ladybug-patterned galette, overshadowing the whole city of Paris.)
"THAT'S THE WORST!" The kwamis (except for Tikki who's trying to hide herself in embarrassment) shouted while the humans stood still in silence with their jaws dropped in total shock at what just happened on-screen.
Scene: By the sewers. Adrien and Plagg peek through the sewer lid.
Plagg: Uh-oh, Sugar Cube's used her power!
Adrien: Sugar Cube?
Plagg: Tikki, Ladybug's kwami.
Scene: Jardin des Tuileries.
Marinette: Tikki! I'm begging you! Stop this! Control yourself!
Tikki: But Marinette, I'm just making the biggest galette in the world! (Tikki continues to use her Lucky Charm to create one giant galette, with bridges starting to crack, as well as the Montparnasse Tower.)
"OK, I've heard of addictions going way out of control before, but this is… indescribable!" Miss Bustier said as she and everyone else are still frozen in shock towards the giant galette on-screen.
Scene: In the sewers.
Plagg: Looks like Tikki's got a little case of the munchies again.
Adrien: "Little"?
"LITTLE?!" The humans in the audience asked Plagg in total exasperation.
"We are looking at the same huge galette in the sky, right?!" Alya asked the kwami, pointing to the screen.
"What I'm saying is that it's little and tame compared to what happened the last time Tikki here had a crazy craving," Plagg explained himself, making all the others cringe.
"Do we wanna know what happened last time?" Marinette asked on behalf of the humans in the audience, making the kwamis cringe in nervousness while Angel replayed the episode.
Plagg: The last time was centuries ago when humans discovered chocolate. It rained chocolate mousse for eight weeks! (groans) Don't look so worried. There's a reason there's also a kwami of destruction! (winks) Come on, Adrien! Transform!
The humans in the audience once again stood still with their jaws dropped in shock as they all slowly looked at Tikki, making her laugh nervously.
"It's actually a funny story. Maybe I can tell you all about this over chocolate," Tikki suggested while laughing nervously, but everyone else didn't change their faces, so her laughter died down.
"And there's never been a record of this 8-week long chocolate mousse rainstorm?" Max asked, breaking the long silence.
"Well, back then, you humans weren't so big on science. You all were more of a religious and spiritual kind of crowd. Apparently, the humans back then thought it was God's punishment for overindulging in chocolate, His newest creation," Plagg explained with a chuckle about the God theory.
"Well, we better come up with a new story if this happens. Because this God theory would not fly in this century," Marinette noted in which everyone else murmured in agreement.
Adrien: Plagg, claws out! (transforms into Cat Noir. He begins to run up on the ground and launches himself with his baton to stop the giant galette from growing much larger.)
Cat Noir: (upon launching) Power up! (transforms into Astro Cat. He flies into space towards the giant galette that Tikki made.)
"What kind of power-up is that?" Kagami asked curiously as well as everyone else.
"This must be our outer space power-ups," Marinette answered in which everyone else nodded in understanding and awe of the new power-up.
Astro Cat: Cataclysm! (activates his power and touches the giant galette, creating a giant explosion in space as he flies back to Earth. Back at the Jardin des Tuileries, the skies clear up and Tikki becomes frustrated.)
Tikki: Oh, no! It's okay! I'll just make another one! (uses her power for the second time) An even BIGGER ONE!
"And here we go again," Plagg deadpanned upon seeing Tikki attempt to create another giant galette on-screen.
Marinette: So, Sass was right. But... why didn't you tell me anything?
Tikki: (cools down) I was afraid you'd think less of me... because of my cravings.
"Awwwww!" Everyone in the audience moaned in sadness with tears in their eyes, feeling sorry for the cute red kwami who looked down in sadness like she is on-screen.
"Are you kidding, Tikki?! I should be more concerned about what you think of me. After all, I am the one chosen to channel your powers on a regular basis," Marinette said to her kwami, trying to comfort her. "Sometimes, I wonder if you think less of me because of my flaws like my crazy plans when it comes to Adrien."
"You don't have to worry about me thinking less of you, Marinette. In fact, you're one of my favorite holders that I've ever served and I'll always like you for who you are," Tikki said to her holder in response and everyone else gushed as both holder and kwami cuddled with each other.
Marinette: Oh! Of course, not! I'll always like you, Tikki! Everyone has weaknesses, you know? (reaches out her hand) Let me help you overcome yours, just like you're always helping me overcome mine. (Tikki's stomach continues to rumble) You can resist! I have faith in you! Look at me! (Tikki flies to hold Marinette's hand and Marinette cups her in them) Bravo! (goes to hide behind a tree) Now, Tikki, spots on!
Scene: On the Parisian rooftops. Dearest Family continues to argue.
Qilin: No, it's yours!
Weredad: (notices that Marinette is missing) My baby! Where'd she go? (The four of them jump back on the ground.)
"With all this fuss about Marinette, you just noticed that she's gone?!" Angel asked the Dupain-Cheng parents in exasperation. While everyone else chuckled in amusement, the Dupain-Cheng couple frowned at Angel while also blushing in embarrassment.
Qilin: Marinette?
Weredad: Marinette! (Back on the rooftops, Ladybug joins Cat Noir.)
Ladybug: Thanks for your help with the galette, kitty cat.
Cat Noir: How's your kwami? Better?
Ladybug: Yes. It won't happen again.
Cat Noir: How could Shadow Moth get to the Dupain-Cheng family again? Didn't you give them magical charms?
Ladybug: I did, but maybe he found a way of overpowering their magic. But that's not gonna stop us from saving them again!
Dearest Family: Marinette! (Ladybug and Cat Noir leap to the ground to face the four of them. The battle ensues, starting with Bakerix throwing a car at the superheroes. The two split after dodging the car as Cat Noir faces Qilin and Weredad, evading their attacks as well. He then rejoins Ladybug by her side.)
Ladybug: We've gotta find where Shadow Moth's akuma is hiding! (Befana fires at Ladybug and Cat Noir and the two avoid it. Ladybug grapples her yo-yo on Befana's legs, with Cat Noir knocking both Befana, as well as Bakerix. Bakerix's yeast bottle falls from his waist and Ladybug takes the opportunity to grab it with her yo-yo, breaking it, only with no akuma flying out of it.) Nothing!
Cat Noir: Maybe this one? (breaks Befana's candy box, and no akuma is yet to be seen)
Befana: (continues to fire at them) You won't stop us from giving Marinette all the freedom she needs! (Ladybug continuously evades all of Befana's attacks.)
Bakerix: No freedom without discipline!
Weredad: She's my baby!
Qilin: Marinette is old enough to know what is right for her! The only one she needs is me!
Ladybug: The akuma must be in an object that's the same for all four villains.
Cat Noir: Better find it quickly!
Ladybug: Lucky Charm! (uses her power and gets a paper crown) A... crown? Of course! The akuma's in the galette, at home!
Cat Noir: At home?
Ladybug: Uh— What I mean is... at their home! The Dupain-Cheng home! They must have eaten galette too, as a family! And the akuma's there. I mean, I'm guessing, so... stop them from following me!
"Well, that was close!" Marinette joked about almost exposing her secret identity on-screen with everyone else chuckling in amusement, except for Adrien who playfully pouted in exasperation.
Cat Noir: No, not again!
Scene: Dupain-Cheng Residence, living room. Ladybug runs to the galette where the akumatized charm is. Cat Noir follows behind her, being chased by the four villains, pushing the door close against them.
Befana: (behind the door) Quick! This way! (Dearest Family attempts to break the door.)
Cat Noir: (pushing the door shut) I did what I could! (Ladybug's stomach grumbles and resists to not put the slice of galette in her mouth. She thinks of an idea and runs towards Cat Noir.)
Ladybug: Special delivery! (hands the slice of galette to Cat Noir)
"Yeah, better let me eat that!" Adrien jokingly said in which everyone else nodded enthusiastically in agreement while also chuckling.
Cat Noir: Thank you, m'lady! (pulls the charm inside the galette) And I got the charm! I'm the king! Cataclysm! (activates his power and breaks the charm containing the megakuma) What in the—
Ladybug: A more powerful akuma! So that's how Shadow Moth broke the magical charms! No more evil doing for you, big butterfly! (opens her yo-yo) Time to de-evilize! (captures the megakuma) Gotcha! (releases the purified akuma. fluttering away) Bye-bye, little butterfly! (Dearest Family is now de-akumatized and detransforms back to their civilian forms.)
Cat Noir: (grabs a golden paper crown on the coffee table) Since I'm the king, (wears the crown on his head) would you be my queen, Ladybug?
Ladybug: With pleasure, kitty cat! Tradition is tradition! (Cat Noir puts on the paper crown lucky charm on Ladybug.)
Ladybug and Cat Noir: Pound it!
"Pound it!" The two heroes fist-bumped and kissed in victory.
Ladybug: Miraculous Ladybug! (She throws the paper crown in the air and fixes all the damages caused by the villains and Tikki's craving mayhem. The magical ladybugs bring the Dupain-Cheng family safely back on the living room couch. She swipes her yo-yo open and grabs four charms for the Dupain-Cheng family and distributes it to them.) I can't promise that these magical charms will protect you from Shadow Moth. Maybe they'll help you eat your galette in peace! (The two heroes make their exit as they vault to the roofs, with Ladybug returning shortly after to de-transform inside her bedroom. Tikki lands on Marinette's palms.)
"Yeah, even though Shadow Moth has finally found a weakness to those magical charms, the best thing you can do at this point is to give out more. Of course you can't say that they'll protect them, so you pretty much just say that they're reminders to stay positive," Angel explained after Ladybug gave her family magical charms. Everyone else just looked at each other and shrugged in agreement.
Marinette: There you go! You finally get to taste Dad and Grandpa's famous galette!
"FINALLY!" The kwamis cheered that they finally got to taste the famous galette without Tikki's interference on-screen much to the humans' amusement.
The rest of the kwamis: (gather around Marinette's hand full of crumbs of galette) Whoa!
Sass: In front of Tikki..?
Marinette: Go ahead! Tikki's controlling herself very well! (pats Tikki's head with her thumb. The kwamis disperse after grabbing their own pieces of galette from Marinette's hand.)
Tikki: I'm really sorry, Marinette. I thought I'd never have one of those craving episodes again, but the galette your family created is really an exceptional event in the culinary history of humanity!
"Too bad you're not human and can't be seen by the public, Tikki. That would make a great review for our bakery," Tom said as he smiled at his daughter's kwami in which everyone else chuckled in agreement.
Marinette: (chuckles softly) I don't blame you, Tikki. But what are we gonna do next year on Galette Day?
Tikki: I've given it some thought! I'm sure that I can reduce my cravings if I just eat galettes more often! (The two share a little laughter before Marinette gives Tikki a piece of galette.)
"OH NO!" The Dupain-Cheng family groaned as they facepalmed at the thought of feeding more galettes to Tikki with everyone else laughing hard at their reaction.
Scene: Exterior, Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie. The Dupain-Cheng family stand outside before Gina's motorcycle gift to Marinette.
Gina: Marinetta, we're really sorry. We all got into an argument about this bike.
Rolland: Because each of us thought we knew what was right for you.
Tom: But none of us thought to ask...
Sabine: ...how you were feeling about it.
Marinette: Actually, you all know me pretty well! This bike will be awesome… in a few years. However, I'd be super excited to have an electric mini scooter! (Gina, Tom, Sabine, and Rolland are in shock.)
"That's a reasonable compromise, right?" Marinette asked, looking at her parents with pleading eyes in which they both nodded in agreement after they both took a deep breath.
"See, Tom? I told you Marinette is old enough to know what's right for her. Looks like I'm the winner!" Sabine pointed out to her husband in which everyone else chuckled in agreement while the Dupain-Cheng family hugged each other.
Tom: Uh— A scooter's okay but with a helmet, right? (Marinette smiles. The end card shows Marinette riding a mini scooter while passing out galettes, while her family except her grandmother (who is cheering for her) has worried expressions)
Epilogue Scene: The Agreste mansion's repository. Gabriel is in front of Emilie's glass coffin.
Gabriel: Emilie, my queen. Ladybug and Cat Noir escaped me again today, but I will never give up. I will get their Miraculous. Thanks to the all powerful forces of destruction and creation, I'll destroy this world that took you from us to build a new one, where we'll never be apart again. I will succeed, Emilie. Whatever the cost.
"Well, that was ominous," Angel noted about the last scene with everyone else murmuring in agreement. "OK, the next episode is Ephemeral, which by the way is the 100th episode of the show!"
"So, who's that akuma?" Marinette asked curiously as well as everyone else in which Angel's mood dampened down and slowly pointed at Adrien, making her audience gasp in shock.
"Me?! How?! Why?!" Adrien asked, still shocked that he's the one akumatized.
"This episode is kind of like Cat Blanc. Another possible disastrous consequence of you two knowing each other's identities that at the end will be fixed," Angel explained to her shocked and worried audience as she played the episode. "Watch and you'll see."
