Scene: Parc des Princes.
"This whole akumatized soccer game started because you, Miss Bustier, were having your class play soccer at the stadium to learn about teamwork and team spirit," Angel pointed out in which everyone else nodded in understanding while Miss Bustier smiled as she thought that's a good idea. "Anyway, there's two teams: red and yellow with the captains being Marinette and Kim. Marinette the red captain and Kim the yellow captain."
"Is that Didier Roustan, the famous sports journalist?! Next to Miss Bustier over there?!" Marc asked excitedly much to everyone else's surprise.
"Yes, that's him. Miss Bustier invited him there to observe your game," Angel answered as she nodded in confirmation with most of the teens shaking with excitement.
Kim: Hmm. I choose—Max! (Max walks next to Kim, along with Markov, and holds a yellow jersey) Markov, who's gonna give me a 100% chance of winning?
Markov: Processing. (Markov prints out a slip of paper with his answer, to which Kim then takes and reads it)
Marinette: Alya! (Alya rushes over to Marinette's side)
Kim: Oh no, Alya was Markov's pick.
Marinette: Hey, using Markov is cheating!
Kim: Well, we're gonna need the best players if we're gonna win, right?
Chloé: Since we obviously know who's gonna win, there's no point in playing. I'm going home.
Miss Bustier: Nobody's going home and nobody's going to cheat. I specifically asked Mr. Didier to join us to teach you how to play together and develop some team spirit.
Didier Roustan: Yes, in soccer. What's important is not winning or losing, but enjoying yourselves by playing together. Together means not only with your teammates, but with everyone on the field.
Kim: And I really like playing with my opponents. Especially when we're crushing them.
Didier Roustan: Can you all think of ways to make teams more fair?
Alix: We can try girls against boys! (Sabrina, Mylène, Rose, and Juleka pose behind Alix)
Kim: No way, we'd lose again!
Rose: I know! By alphabetical order of the names of our teddy bears.
Alya: Rose, you're the only one who still has a teddy bear.
Nino: You and Chloé.
Everyone in the audience snickered at Nino's comment about Chloe, except for the blonde girl who silently frowned.
Chloé: Of course I have a teddy…Uhhh I mean ridiculous, utterly ridiculous.
Marinette: Why don't we draw for it?
Rose: Oh yeah, that's a great idea! (The rest of the class (minus Chloé) cheer. Miss Bustier and Didier Roustan nod at each other)
Scene: Outside Parc des Princes. Marc drags Nathaniel into the arena.
Nathaniel: I don't see what's so great about running around chasing a ball. And what if I hurt my hand? I wouldn't be able to draw comics anymore.
"Dude, you play soccer with your feet. You're not allowed to use your hands at all, unless you're the goalie," Nino pointed out to Nathaniel who blushed in embarrassment at what he just said on-screen.
Marc: Nath, you play soccer with your feet, your hands will be fine and it's fun. You'll see. Soccer is all about Bicycle kicks, Marseille turns, Rainbow kicks, and since you like stories so much just wait, a good game is full of exciting twists and turns. Like a good manga!
"I take it you're a huge soccer fan?" Nathaniel rhetorically asked his boyfriend with a smirk with everyone else also smirking at Marc in agreement.
"I don't just love to write, you know," Marc responded in which Nathaniel nodded in understanding.
Nathaniel: Well, I'd still rather be working on our comic.
Marc: But you can't skip the class! Don't you realize? Miss Bustier got Mr. Didier to come here. He's a legend in sports journalism, a real walking encyclopedia of soccer.
Nathaniel: Oh, come on, Marc! Think of an excuse for me please? You're the writer after all. And that way you'll get to meet Mr. Didier.
"Fine. I'll show up and play," Nathaniel reluctantly said after Miss Bustier frowned at him for skipping the class with a fake excuse on-screen.
Scene: Parc des Princes
Marc: And so…that's why he can't be here for this class.
Miss Bustier: That means we're missing a player.
"You know who else in the class isn't on the field playing too?" Angel asked everyone else and they realized who else wasn't playing on-screen in which they rolled their eyes in annoyance.
"Let me guess: Lila's off on another international trip?" Marinette asked in a deadpan manner.
"Good guess, but no. She's at the stadium with you guys. She's just not playing. You'll see," Angel answered in which everyone else nodded in understanding.
Didier Roustan: Wouldn't you like to play?
Marc: (Points to himself) Uh…No I…This isn't my class and I'm not all that good. (looks down)
Didier Roustan: It's your call. Uh mind passing me that ball over there before you go? (Marc rolls the ball to himself, begins juggling with his knees and passes the ball to Didier Roustan)
"I call Marc on my team!" Kim said excitedly with his hand raised after being impressed by Marc's soccer skills as well as everyone else while Marc blushed in embarrassment at the praise.
Marinette: You absolutely have to play! (Marc looks at Didier Roustan, who smiles and winks. The two teams are set up in their positions. The red team with Juleka playing as goalkeeper. Alya, Rose and Alix are playing in defense. Marc and Marinette are midfielders and Sabrina is in the striker position. Among the yellow team is Chloé, who's posing for pictures on her phone while being goalkeeper. Max, Adrien and Mylène as their defenders. Nino and Ivan are playing as midfielders and Kim as the yellow team striker. Didier Roustan blows his whistle. The yellow team starts the kickoff. Kim attempts to pass the ball to Nino, but Sabrina immediately takes possession, begins running towards the yellow team's goal and is about to shoot the ball into the goal.)
"Well, I call Sabrina on my team!" Marinette retorted back to Kim as soon as she saw Sabrina playing on-screen. While Sabrina blushed in embarrassment, everyone else looked at her in shock that she's actually good at the sport.
Chloé: Sabrina! (Sabrina falls and looks up at Chloé) I forbid you to play this stupid game! (Marinette kneels aside Sabrina)
Marinette: Don't listen to Chloé, you're allowed to play soccer if you like it. (Helps Sabrina off the ground)
"Do you really like soccer?" Chloe asked Sabrina who nervously looked down before looking up at the blonde girl.
"I really do. My dad kind of got me into it. We would even watch the World Cup every year," Sabrina quietly answered, afraid of Chloe's reaction.
"Well, ok then. I accept it," Chloe said, much to everyone else's surprise, especially Sabrina who smiled at the blonde girl in appreciation and then Chloe smiled back.
Chloe: The only thing she likes is obeying me! (Chloé pushes Sabrina aside and turns face to face with Marinette)
Mylène: Yeah. Sorry, Sabrina. Go ahead, Teddy Bear. (Mylène takes possession of the ball and passes it to Ivan)
Ivan: But I might hurt someone if I kick too hard or jostle them.
Rose: Sorry! (Rose steals the ball from Ivan and passes it to Marc. Marc receives the pass with his chest and passes it to Marinette in the air. It flies pass Kim and Nino)
"OK, you definitely have to play!" Alya said to Marc excitedly as well as everyone else with Marc once again blushing at the praise.
Kim: Awesome! (Marinette receives the pass with her knee and rolls it to the ground. She begins dribbling to the goal, but freezes once she comes across Adrien)
Marinette: (smiles nervously and accidentally passes it to him) Oops.
"Well, that was pathetic," Alix deadpanned towards the moment between Marinette and Adrien in which everyone else chuckled in agreement while Marinette blushed in embarrassment.
Nino: Dude quick, pass it! (Nino runs past Adrien. Adrien picks up the ball with his hands and throws it to Nino, who then frowns)
"Dude, what are you doing?! You don't play with your hands unless you're the goalie!" Nino said to his best friend in surprise as well as everyone else while the blond boy blushed in embarrassment.
"Sorry, I've never played before, so I'm not really familiar entirely with how the game works," Adrien nervously admitted much to everyone else's shock. "My father wouldn't let me. According to him, soccer is too dangerous a sport."
"And fencing is what, Adrien? Flower arranging?" Kagami sarcastically asked in exasperation with everyone else murmuring in agreement and Adrien continued to blush in embarrassment.
Didier Roustan: (Blows whistle) Handball! Like my friend Andrea said: "Football is played with the head. Your feet are just the tools." But yeah, only the goalie can touch the ball with their hands.
Adrien: Oh, sorry I'm not that familiar with the rules. (Nino facepalms. Alya places the ball in the spot for a free kick. She is about to kick the ball, but instead, passes it to Marinette who shoots and scores a goal.)
"Why are we not surprised?" Alix asked in a deadpan manner in exasperation towards Chloe failing to stop the ball on-screen.
"Well, now we know the last two people being picked on a team," Kim added, also in a deadpan manner while pointing to Adrien and Chloe. Everyone else murmured in agreement while the two childhood friends frowned in embarrassment.
Didier Roustan: Oh! Reminds me of my friend Michelle at '84.
Kim: Hey, Chloé, you're the one who's supposed to stop the ball!
Chloé: (Still looking at her phone) There is no way I'm touching that round thing. I don't wanna catch some kind of disease or even worse, lameness!
"Chloe, we gave you the least active position of the game. All you have to do is stand there and just stop the ball from going into the goal," Max pointed out in exasperation as well as everyone else while Chloe just frowned.
"Don't the goalie people wear gloves?" Chloe then asked, in which everyone else looked at her in surprise that she knew that. "What? Daddy loves soccer and I would catch glimpses of the games he watches!"
"Well, that's true, Chloe. Goalies do wear gloves. Mostly to protect their fingers from getting cramped by the hard soccer ball," Sabrina answered in which everyone else nodded in agreement, much to Chloe's satisfaction.
"Well, if you insist on me playing, I must wear gloves! That's not asking too much, is it?" Chloe asked in which everyone else nodded and shrugged in agreement.
"Speaking of gloves, don't you all have athletic uniforms for things like this or gym class?" Angel asked curiously in which most of her audience shook their heads in denial. "Because I have to say that some of you are not wearing proper athletic attire."
"Maybe I can design something like that for the school," Marinette then suggested in which everyone else hummed, liking the idea.
"Anyway, back to the episode," Angel said as she replayed the episode.
Sabrina: I can replace you if you want? I love being the goalie.
Alya: But you're not even on her team!
Nino: If we don't have a real goalie then it's a losing battle.
Chloé: I refuse to be on a team of losers. I'm going home!
Miss Bustier: Ah-Ah. Chloé, you cannot go home during school hours.
Marinette: If you wanna win, Chloé, then just play.
Chloé: How come I can't be on the Bench with what's-her-name over there? (Lila waves from the bench and pretends to wince)
Lila: Uh, Ow.
Rose: Lila's injured.
"Of course she is…not!" Marinette deadpanned, annoyed at another one of Lila's lies along with everyone else.
"Now that I think about it, doesn't Lila sit out practically every gym class?" Adrien asked in which the class nodded in agreement, thinking that's true too.
"I might have to speak to Mr. D'Argencourt about that to be sure," Miss Bustier said while Angel replayed the episode.
Marinette: (scoffs) Another one of her lies.
Chloé: Well, I'm injured too! In my wrist. Ow! Owch! Owwie! (Chloé pretends to be injured by hopping around)
"That's your thigh, you blonde dingbat!" Alix said in disbelief with everyone else looking at the blonde girl in disbelief as well while Chloe just frowned.
Marinette: That's your thigh!
Chloé: Nobody asked you, baker girl!
Didier Roustan: Anyone have an idea how to include your classmates in the game while still keeping the game fair and engaging?
Marinette: Well…Chloé could switch teams with every goal. The team that wins will be the one that did the best with this handicap. (Chloé looks at Marinette with shock and anger as she quickly changes her words) Uhh…I mean having Chloé as their goalie. (Everyone cheers at the idea.)
Didier Roustan: Nicely done, captain. Marinette, is it?
Marinette: Yes. Thank you, sir.
Chloé: (furiously walking away to the goal and crossing her arms) Well I find Dupain-Cheng's idea ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous!
Sabrina: Why don't you call your father? As mayor, he can just cancel this class since I…mean we hate soccer.
Chloe: No need. I'm waiting for a call from someone else, someone much more powerful.
"I'm waiting for an akuma, aren't I?" Chloe asked in horror towards herself on-screen in which Angel confirmed her question with a nod much to Chloe's and everyone else's nervousness.
Scene: Shadow Moth's lair. The lair's window opens up.
Shadow Moth: Ah, Chloé Bourgeois, it's been too long. Ladybug's magical charm has put you on the sidelines, but now it's time for a rematch! (He turns a butterfly into a megakuma and sends it out) Time for kick off, my megakuma. Give back all the aggressiveness to my favorite striker!
Scene: Parc des Princes. The akuma breaks the magical charm and infects Chloé's glasses.
Shadow Moth: (from his lair) Penalty, I am Shadow Moth. Your classmates are forcing you to play soccer? I'm giving you the power to make them loathe this sport forever. To accomplish this, you'll be an invincible team with all the guarantees of winning it all, including cheating of course. In exchange...
Chloé: Save your breath: victory and the Miraculous. I know. (Chloé transforms into Penalty)
Sabrina: Chloé! (Penalty creates 10 clones of herself forming the Penalteam and a yellow dome is cast over Paris)
Penalty: You wanted to play soccer? Okay, then let's play.
"Great! A soccer team full of ridiculous-looking Chloe clones," Alix deadpanned towards the Penalteam on-screen with everyone else murmuring in agreement, with Chloe frowning at the fact that Shadow Moth once again made her look ridiculous.
Marinette: But, I thought you didn't like soccer.
Penalty: I can't stand it and I promise that when I'm done with you, you too will never wanna play this ridiculous game ever again.
Miss Bustier: Chloé, vengeance is never the solution to any problem.
Penalty: I'm no longer Chloé. From now on, call me Penalty and here's my Penalteam! (Penalty chucks a red card at Miss Bustier and she disappears. Startled, Lila abruptly gets up from the bench)
Marc: Miss Bustier! (Alya gasps. Miss Bustier has been placed in a yellow, clear ball above the field. Marinette taps Alya's shoulder and nods at her)
"If any of the Penalteam throws a magic red card at you, you're out and trapped in this prison bubble," Angel explained the first part of the Penalteam's powers to her audience.
Penalty clone: The first half is 45 minutes. If I win, no one will ever play soccer in this city again! Hahahahaha! (The Penalteam clock at the top of the stadium sets 45 minutes for the first half. Penalty blows her whistle to start the game. She passes the Penalteam-themed soccer ball to one of her clones and they start sprinting towards the other goal. Alya, Marinette, Sabrina and Alix run and stand in front of them to protect their goal)
Alya: If you play anything like Chloé, this is going to be easy! (Alya runs forward to try and steal the ball)
Marinette: Alya, no! (A Penalty slides and tags Alya with her cleat at Alya's feet, which places Alya in a yellow, clear ball above the stadium along with Miss Bustier. Marinette becomes angry and clenches her fists.)
"If she also touches you with the magic cleats on her feet, you're also out and trapped in a prison bubble," Angel explained the next part of the Penalteam's powers much to everyone else's surprise.
Penalty: The Penalteam is invincible, you bunch of losers! (Penalty runs, shoots the ball and scores a goal. The yellow balls, which hold Miss Bustier and Alya, shrink)
"And finally, every time the Penalteam scores a goal, those prison bubbles shrink and get more cramped. But if any of you score a goal, the bubbles will expand," Angel explained the last part of the Penalteam's powers in which everyone else nodded in understanding.
Alix: That goal doesn't count! There was a foul on Alya!
Didier Roustan: She's right, that's a red card!
Penalty: I get to decide the rules! (Penalty creates a red card and throws it to Alix, which also places Alix in a yellow, clear ball. Penalty then points at Didier Roustan) And you, since you like to talk so much, why don't you be our official commentator. (She creates another red card and throws it to Didier Roustan, he is placed in a yellow, clear ball. Ivan, Juleka, Rose, and Sabrina run off the field. Nino runs past Mylène, who is hiding behind a wall at the staircase. Marc and Marinette run up the rows of seats and Marinette ducks behind a row) Giving up already? And I thought you loved soccer!(Penalty shoots the ball into the goal again and scores another point. The yellow balls holding Alix, Didier Roustan, Miss Bustier and Alya shrink once more) But I'm warning you: the more I score, the more cramped your friends will be.
Didier Roustan: (gasps) Welcome to the Stadium of Princesses…or not?
Marinette: No intention of losing this game! Tikki, spots on! (From behind the row of seats, a flash of red light appears)
Plagg: (In the arena's bathrooms) Ah, for pity's sake, anything but soccer, please!
Adrien: Sorry, but Ladybug and I are a team. Plagg, claws out! (A flash of green light appears from inside the stall. Ladybug jumps out on the soccer field)
Didier Roustan: (From inside his yellow ball) Just when it seemed all hope was lost, Ladybug enters the field!
Ladybug: You wanna play soccer? How about battling it out on an equal playing field!
Penalty: Ah, Ladybug! Nothing would make me happier than crushing you and your team of ridiculous losers.
Ladybug: (Cat Noir leaps from the seats and stands next to Ladybug) No need for a whole team, it's just Cat Noir and me against your clones! (Cat Noir taps his fingers nervously together) We'll be so awesome you won't even see the ball! We're gonna win and de-akumatize you in no time! (Cat Noir nervously tries tapping her shoulder)
Penalty: (laughs) The akuma is the trophy and trophies are for winners, not losers! (Penalty throws her glasses on the ground and taps it with the foot to remove the glasses and trap them in a yellow, clear ball to intimidate the heroes.)
Ladybug: (laughs) Nice scare tactics, but it's not gonna work. Cat Noir and I are the best at soccer!
Cat Noir: (whispers to Ladybug) I don't know a thing about soccer, m'lady. Maybe it's better to call the real team?
Ladybug: (shocked, she slowly pushes Cat Noir to guard the goals and heads off) Oh, well Cat Noir will attend the goals while I go get the rest of our team.
"What team?" Mr. Damocles asked curiously as well as everyone else, except for the two heroes who have an idea on where this is going.
"Oh, just practically the entire Miraculous superhero team, including a few new superheroes. So, for you kwamis who don't have holders yet, you're going to in this battle," Angel explained, making everyone else shake in excitement, especially about the new heroes.
Penalty: (laughs) I guess you're not that confident after all, Ladybug! Let's see what you're made of, kitty cat!
Didier Roustan: (From inside his yellow ball) From the look on his face, not champion material I'm afraid. (Cat Noir nervously points to himself and gets ready to defend the goal. Ladybug finds Nino, Max, Mylène, Kim, Juleka, Rose, Luka, Zoé, and Kagami, and hands them their Miraculouses. As Ladybug enters the staircase, Sabrina is seen in the corner curled up in a ball. Sabrina stands up abruptly once she sees Ladybug)
"First of the new superheroes, there's Sabrina the Dog," Angel pointed out to the first of the new superhero group in which Sabrina gasped in shock while Barkk flew to her in excitement.
Ladybug: Sabrina Raincomprix, here is the Miraculous of the Dog, which grants the power to Fetch and return whatever your ball has touched. (Handing her the Miraculous. Sabrina hesitantly shakes her head)
"What ball?" Sabrina asked, confused as well as everyone else.
"When you're transformed, you'll get a magic ball. First, you touch an object you want with your ball. Then, you say the magic word, "Fetch", and the object your ball touched will magically teleport to you," Barkk explained her superpower to her holder in which she and everybody else murmured in understanding and excitement.
Sabrina: I'm sorry but, I can't do that to Chloé!
Ladybug: That's not Chloé out there, it's Penalteam. Don't you want to set her free?
"Sabrina, record this with your phone in case we forget," Chloe ordered in which Sabrina took out her phone and started the recording. "Sabrina, I give you permission to help the heroes if they need you in case I get akumatized again," Chloe then said to the recording in which Sabrina nodded with a smile towards her best friend.
Sabrina: If It's to save Chloé, then yes! Besides, I love soccer! (More confident, she takes the Miraculous and puts it on. Barkk, as a bright ball appears in front of her)
Barkk: Hi, I'm Barkk, and I'm your kwami! (Ladybug finds Marc and holds out a Miraculous for him)
"Sorry we won't get to see each of your transformations though. Anyway, next, there's Marc the Rooster," Angel pointed out to the next person of the new superhero group and Orikko flew to his new holder in excitement.
Marc: Ladybug, I'm really not that good at soccer. I- (Shying away and pulls his hands to his chest. Ladybug takes his hand and places the Miraculous in his hand)
Ladybug: You're too hard on yourself. You're more talented than you realize. (Marc slides the Miraculous jewel over his left thumb. Orikko appears in front of him as bright ball of light)
Orikko: Hi. I'm Orikko. Let's play!
"So, what can we do?" Marc asked his kwami about their Miraculous curiously as well as everyone else.
"We have the power of Sublimation which means we can have any super-ability or superpower we want," Orikko explained about his superpower in which everyone else murmured in excitement.
"So, I can be invisible?" Marc asked.
"Yep!" Orikko answered.
"I can run at super-fast speed?" Marc then asked.
"Yep!" Orikko answered.
"I can go back in time?" Marc then asked.
"Nope!" Orikko then answered which got everyone else confused. "The only powers we can't have are the powers of the other Miraculouses. Going back in time is already for the Snake…or Rabbit," Orikko then explained in which everyone else murmured in understanding.
"But you must choose wisely, young man. You can only choose one power per transformation," Master Fu reminded Marc who nodded in understanding.
Scene: Outside Parc des Princes. Nathaniel is holding the Goat Miraculous, having been given by Ladybug.
"Next, there's Nathaniel the Goat," Angel pointed out to her audience and Ziggy flew to her new holder in excitement.
Nathaniel: It's just, I'm… flattered, Ladybug. But I don't feel comfortable being on a team. (tries to hand the Goat Miraculous back to Ladybug)
Ladybug: Really? Aren't you the one who's teamed up with the writer to create those Ladybug comics? You will use it for the greater good and return it to me once the job is done. Can I trust you? (Nathaniel smiles and places the hair clips on his head. Ziggy pops out and turns to him)
Ziggy: Hi, I'm your kwami, Ziggy!
"So, what's our power?" Nathaniel asked his kwami curiously as well as everyone else.
"We have the power of Genesis, which is like Ladybug's power of Creation, except that we can create any object we want," Ziggy explained about her superpower in which everybody else once again murmured in excitement. "That shouldn't be a problem for you, right? I heard that you like to illustrate," Ziggy then said as she smiled to her holder who nodded with a smile back.
Scene: Parc des Princes. Ivan has received the Ox Miraculous from Ladybug and looks hesitant.
"And last but not least, Ivan the Ox," Angel pointed out the last person of the new superhero group and Stompp flew to his new holder in excitement.
Ladybug: Can I trust you? (Ivan puts in the nose ring in his nose. Stompp flies out next to him)
Stompp: Hi, I'm Stompp. Let's add some muscle to this game.
Ivan: What if I hurt someone using my superpowers?
"Oh, don't worry about that. We have one of the least violent superpowers of them all," Stompp said to reassure his holder.
"So, what can we do?" Ivan asked his kwami curiously as well as everyone else.
"We have the power of Resistance. Call on that word, you're immune to any attacks the supervillain throws at you. So, if a supervillain tries to zap you with their powers, you won't be affected," Stompp explained about his superpower and the audience once again murmured in excitement.
"So, I'm more in the defense position?" Ivan asked and Stompp nodded in confirmation.
Ladybug: It's good to be careful, Ivan, but remember, you'll be on a team of superheroes facing supervillains! No one can be hurt. (Ivan, reassured, smiles. Back on the soccer field, the goal Cat Noir is supposed to be defending appears to have its poles bent, the net ripped and smoke coming out from the ground and the stands behind it filled with big holes. Cat Noir is then hit in the face by the Penalteam-themed soccer ball)
Dider Roustan: (From his yellow ball) Left on his own, Cat Noir seems exhausted. Penalteam's cannonballs have hurt the feline into cat food! It's not sport anymore, it's animal abuse! (Penalteam shoots the ball again at Cat Noir and scores another point. Penalty is laughing at Cat Noir, who has been been hit into the net and lays on the ground in exhaustion)
Ladybug: You didn't do so badly, kitty cat!
Didier Roustan: Ladybug is back! Here's the group selected for this decisive match! Ladybug remains faithful in her classical line-up: Carapace, Pegasus, Polymouse, King Monkey, Purple Tigress, Pigella, Vesperia, Viperion and Ryuko! (Carapace, Pegasus, Polymouse, King Monkey, Purple Tigress appear on top of the stadium. Pigella, Vesperia, Viperion, Ryuko, also appear) But also four new recruits whose names I don't know… (The new heroes appear one by one, starting with Miss Hound)
Miss Hound: Miss Hound!
"Wow, Sabrina! You actually look fabulous in that!" Chloe said in surprise towards her blushing best friend after looking at the latter's superhero form with everyone else murmuring in agreement.
Rooster Bold: Rooster Bold!
"I know I'm biased, but that is one chicken suit that actually looks decent," Nathaniel said in surprise to his blushing boyfriend after looking at the latter's superhero form with everyone else chuckling in agreement.
Caprikid: Caprikid!
"I look like a faun from Narnia!" Nathaniel said as he cringed at his superhero form with everyone else once again chuckling in agreement.
Minotaurox: Minotaurox!
"Oh, you look so handsome like that, Teddy Bear!" Mylene gushed at her blushing boyfriend's superhero form with everyone else murmuring in agreement.
Penalty: Blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay, losers, are you done yet?
Cat Noir: (whispering to Ladybug) You got a plan for getting our paws on the akumatized object?
Ladybug: That'll be our trophy when we win.
Cat Noir: What if we don't?
Ladybug: Come on, I know the secrets of this game!
Penalty: Let's finish this soccer game once and for all!
Didier Roustan: And so begins the battle of the century between Penalteam and the Miraculous team! (Viperion passes the ball to Ladybug and runs alongside her as she starts dribbling the ball. One Penalty goes in to stop Ladybug, but Ladybug quickly passes to Viperion. Another Penalty slides in and tags Viperion by the ankles which puts him in a yellow, clear ball) Impossible, injustice, treason!
Ladybug: Foul!
Penalty: Not according to my rules!
Ladybug: (Minotaurox, Rooster Bold, Ladybug and Pegasus take off on the field) Careful, don't let her touch you with her cleats! (Penalteam dashes toward the team of heroes, one Penalty passes the ball to another)
Didier Roustan: Penalty passes to Penalty, who passes to Penalty! What a show of incredible coordination as if they were one! Which seems to be the case! Pegasus lets Penalty pass… (The Penalteam have created a square formation in their passing with the 4 heroes inside, passing to each other back and forth. Pegasus tries to get the ball, but one Penalty runs past him, toward the goal and shoots. Carapace attempts to stop it with his shield, but because the kick was so powerful, he is shot into the goal, outside into the city through several buildings and in a big concrete pile) Ladybug's team seems thrown off course! (The yellow balls shrink once again)
"Ouch! Good thing I'm transformed, dudes!" Nino said, cringing at the thought of the pain he must feel hitting several buildings as the goalkeeper.
Penalteam: Yahoo!
King Monkey: The goal's gone, now what do we do?
Penalty: We move on to the next level, losers! (Penalty snaps her fingers and the goals are transported to another location)
Scene: Arc de Triomphe
Didier Roustan: The playing field has gone from just the stadium to all of Paris! This is total soccer, like my friend Johann used to say! (Penalteam blows her whistle. Carapace chucks the ball in the air to Ladybug. Ladybug jumps and receives the ball with her shoulder, then slides down the Louvre with the ball. Purple Tigress is seen running on top of the Louvre Palace.) And the game resumes with a long clearance to Ladybug! Ladybug seems determined to turn this game around! Purple Tigress is in a good position...
Ladybug: Purple Tigress, cover me!
Purple Tigress: Huh? Clout! (Purple Tigress jumps off the building and activates Clout, rupturing the area with the two Penalteam players. Ladybug takes the ball and continues dribbling.)
"Shouldn't this be considered cheating?" Chloe asked as she winced at the sight of herself being a victim of Purple Tigress' clout.
"So is you putting us out of this game by touching us with your cleats which doesn't happen in real soccer,," Juleka then pointed out in a clear voice, which surprised most of the audience.
"Good point," Chloe reluctantly responded with a sigh.
Didier Roustan: Minotaurox who just came in to replace Viperion is unmarked, but Ladybug decides to go alone. (Two other Penalties try to tag Ladybug with their cleat, but Ladybug hops and dodges them both, leaving the two Penalties to collide into each other, but instead they get up and steal the ball.) The Penalteam seizes their chance and take back control of the ball. What a shame!
Ladybug: Give it back!
Ryuko: (appears ahead in front of the Penalteam with the ball and Ladybug) Stop! Ladybug, I got this! (Tagged by another Penalty and captured into a yellow ball)
"Or not," Kagami deadpanned as she facepalmed upon seeing herself getting captured on-screen.
Didier Roustan: Ladybug will have to play more of a team game if she wants to block Penalteam's aggressive and coordinated strategy. (The Penalty player with the ball passes to another Penalty player over the Louvre Palace. Cat Noir and another Penalty go head-to-head trying to take the ball. Then Cat Noir heads the ball into the goal scoring a point)
Cat Noir: Woo-hoo!
Didier Roustan: Cat Noir just scored an own goal! Now that's what I call a cat-tastrophe! (The yellow balls shrink)
Cat Noir: Huh? But I scored! Not her.
Carapace: You scored against your own team, Cat Noir! You put the ball into the Penalteam's goal!
"Dude, we gotta give you a crash course on soccer when we get back! No matter what your old man says!" Nino said as he facepalmed at Adrien's soccer skills along with everyone else, including Adrien himself who nodded in agreement.
Cat Noir: Ah! Got it! (Carapace takes the ball and passes it up to Polymouse on top of the Roue de Paris, but a Penalty steals the pass and kicks it to another Penalty, who kicks it to another Penalty, to another and another, then shoots it into the goal scoring a point. The Penalteam then proceed to pass and shoot 4 more goals, which shrink the yellow balls holding the people once more. Ladybug, Polymouse, Pegasus are seen being dodged and passed by the Penalteam. Pigella is tagged by one Penalty and goes to shoot the ball into the goal)
Carapace: Shell-ter! (Stops the Penalteam from scoring, but his shield then shatters and he is falls to the ground)
Didier Roustan: Keeping the Penalteam from scoring is a good start, but it's a long road to victory. Halftime! (The Penalteam clock buzzes, signifying halftime with Penalteam having 12 points and the hero team with none. The Penalteam cheers while Polymouse, Rooster Bold, Carapace, Minotaurox and Ladybug are stopping to catch their breath. They gather in as a group along with Cat Noir and Pegasus)
Ladybug: No one uses their power anymore, it's too risky if you get caught and imprisoned. Go recharge your kwamis and transform back. (The other heroes scatter off. Ladybug growls after looking at the score. Later, the heroes return recharged, but discouraged. Ladybug looks around them and frowns) I'm sorry, I've been a bad captain. I played a solo game. I forgot we're a team. I'm gonna need all of you now, more than ever.
Rooster Bold: Are you sure? I'm not really..
Ladybug: You're an excellent player, Rooster Bold. That's why I chose you. That's why I chose all of you! Let's play together, and bring all of our individual strengths together onto the field! (They come together and do a group fist bump)
All: Together!
Didier Roustan: Ladybug's team is back onto the field with a 4-3-3 formation and a toughly new spirit! (Carapace is in goal with the ball, Vesperia and Purple Tigress set up in defense near him, Pegasus and King Monkey stand up on top of the Louvre, Miss Hound, Caprikid and Polymouse stand up on the Louvre Palace, Ladybug is positioned on top of the Obélisque de Louxor, Rooster Bold, Cat Noir and Minotaurox stand on top of the clear area of the Louvre Palace. Penalty blows her whistle. Carapace starts off by passing it all the way to Ladybug. One Penalty tries to take the ball, but Ladybug immediately passes to Polymouse. Polymouse runs and dodges three Penalties)
Ladybug: King Monkey is just ahead of you, to your right! (Polymouse sends the ball up to King Monkey who is running along the Louvre Palace. King Monkey jumps and dodges a Penalty and passes to Vesperia) King Monkey, switch wings, on your right, to Vesperia! (Vesperia comes to the ball while surrounded by two Penalties, then she heads the ball to Rooster Bold) You're up, Rooster Bold! You can't score a goal if you can't take a shot! (Rooster Bold receives the ball with his chest, juggles it to his knee then foot, and shoots the ball into the Penalteam's goal, scoring one point)
"Finally! We scored a goal!" Marinette loudly said in excitement with the entire audience cheering as well.
Didier Roustan: GOAL! The change of strategy seems to be paying off! The game is smoother and better coordinated! Come on, Team Miraculous! (Rooster Bold is shown scoring one point, then 3 more points are immediately scored after. Several points are also scored later by the hero team and they have tied their points with the Penalteam.) It's a tie! With only thirty seconds left! (Ladybug dribbles the ball and avoids getting tagged by a Penalty by jumping over the Penalteam with the ball between her feet) Nice rainbow flip, perfectly executed by Ladybug! (She passes to Minotaurox, who receives the ball with his chest)
Ladybug: Use your power and shoot as hard as you can!
"Here comes you using your superpower, Ivan!" Angel pointed out to the teen boy who nodded in understanding in which everyone in the audience shook with excitement.
Minotaurox: (Starts dribbling through the city) Resistance! (The six Penalties are blasted away after attempting to tag Ivan with their cleats)
Didier Roustan: Incredible! It looks like Minotaurox is now impervious to all other powers! (Minotaurox jumps, juggles the ball up in the air and heads the ball. Pulling in three Penalties into the goal and scoring a point, the scoreboard shows the heroes' team with 13 points and the Penalteam with 12 points. The yellow balls expand more) My friends this is more than just a miraculous comeback, it's a Miraculata! Ladybug's team has won!
"YAY, IVAN!" Everyone in the audience cheered for the blushing boy after he scored a goal with help from his superpower on-screen.
Ladybug: I think we've earned our trophy.
Penalty: No, this is not over! (The goals disappear and are placed in the Champ de Mars. The timer is now set to infinity minutes)
Cat Noir: But that's not fair!
Penalty: It's my soccer game - I can do whatever I want! I'm the villain! (throws a red card at Cat Noir)
Cat Noir: Cataclysm! (The red card is destroyed. 5 Penalties surround Cat Noir and all throw red cards at him)
Dider Roustan: Cat Noir's been hit! In 5 minutes he'll transform back and reveal his secret identity, unless our heroes can find a way to get their hands on an akuma… that's unreachable! (Cat Noir is placed in a yellow, transparent soccer ball upside down)
"I'm slowing all you guys down anyway," Adrien said as he looked down in embarrassment at being hit by the Penalteam's red cards, taking him out of the game on-screen.
"Don't say that, kitty cat. We'll try to make sure you're at least halfway decent in this sport when we get back," Marinette said to her boyfriend as she touched his shoulder in which all the teens in the audience murmured in agreement, making the blond boy smile gratefully.
Scene: Shadow Moth's lair.
Shadow Moth: Ah, I love sports just for unique moments like these.
Scene: Champ de Mars.The heroes line up in front of Ladybug.
Ladybug: Lucky Charm! (An art easel appears. Ladybug places it next to her and opens up a marker. She says to herself) Okay, Penalteam, we'll keep playing. (to everyone) So we can't win, she'll never let us and the glasses are out of reach. The only way to end this is if Chloé rejects the akuma herself. We'll have 5 minutes to make the Penalteam despise playing soccer so much, that she'll quit the game. (All the remaining heroes are drawn on the paper with arrows pointing to 3 angry Penalties)
Carapace: How?
Ladybug: By making her realize she can't win. We'll be a team of invincible superheroes! We will use our powers indefinitely without ever transforming back!
Vesperia: But that's impossible! If we use our powers, we will transform back after 5 minutes.
Ladybug: True, but we can make the Penalteam believe otherwise. Thanks to Caprikid's power.
Caprikid: Hmm. What we need is a magic wand. I can create any object I want, so I guess I could make a wand, but I don't have the power to make it magic.
Ladybug: Also true, but Penalteam doesn't have to know that.
Scene: Pont Alexandre III. The heroes slowly walks towards Penalteam, looking confident.
Didier Roustan: Ladybug's 11 are in position, there are less than 4 minutes before Ladybug and Cat Noir transform back! (The group of heroes and the Penalteam walk toward each other to from opposite sides of the bridge with the ball between them)
Penalty: Ready for your countdown as a superhero, Lady-Loser?
Ladybug: Never claim a goal before the ball has crossed the line, Penalty! (nods to Caprikid; he nods back)
"Now, here comes you using your superpower, Nathaniel!" Angel pointed out to the red-haired boy who nodded in understanding in which everyone in the audience still shook with excitement.
Caprikid: Genesis! (Creates a wand with his power) Thanks to this magic wand, I'm granting you all the power to indefinitely use your powers! (pats Minotaurox with his wand) No more time limits, (pats Ladybug with his wand) no transforming back, unlimited number of use! (The Penalteam is shocked and outraged)
Penalty: (stuttering) But that.. that's cheating!
Ladybug: You were the one who wanted to play, right? Well, we will indefinitely and we're gonna love it, forever! (Miss Hound throws out her ball, which touches the soccer ball)
"That was your magic ball that just touched the soccer ball, Sabrina. So, you'll use your superpower in about a minute," Angel pointed out to the blushing teen girl who nodded in understanding in which everyone in the audience still shook with excitement.
Penalty: Hey, don't touch that!
Miss Hound: Sorry, I just love ballies. (Penalty blows her whistle, one Penalty begins to pass the ball to another and they head off into the heroes' team. The Penalty with the ball passes Miss Hound) Fetch! (The ball disappears from in front of the Penalty)
Penalty: What?! (Miss Hound retrieves the ball)
Ladybug: Super! Miss Hound!
Rooster Bold: (Miss Hound passes to Rooster Bold. Rooster Bold starts dribbling the ball) Sublimation!
"And here comes you using your superpower, Marc!" Angel pointed out to the teen boy who nodded in understanding in which everyone in the audience still shook with excitement.
"So, what superpower did I choose?" Marc asked in which Angel responded by pointing to the screen.
Penalty: (laughs) Sublimation? You have the power to make yourself less ugly?
Rooster Bold: Actually my power is to choose a super ability, and I choose to score a ball anytime I shoot. (Rooster Bold shoots the ball, with his power the ball moves around the Penalteam in the way and goes into the goal) And that's how it's gonna be every time I get the ball!
"So, you chose the super ability to score a goal every time you shoot the ball. Apparently even if it defies the laws of physics to do it," Angel explained to Marc who is shocked by the power he chose along with everyone else.
Penalty 1: You're…lame!
Penalty 2: It's not us, it was them! (The Penalteam goalie kicks ball out between two other Penalties)
Didier Roustan: The tension is starting to rise between the Penalteam players. (One Penalty runs up to the ball. Ladybug nods to Vesperia.
Vesperia: Venom! (Vesperia goes and touches a Penalty with her Venom, freezing the Penalty before she could shoot.)
Didier Roustan: There you go! A winning team is a united team. United by its diversity, a team where everyone's individualities find expression and complement each other! That's the beauty of team sports! Like my friend Arsenne said, "In soccer the important thing is not to have the eleven best, but the best eleven." (Vesperia takes the ball and passes to Rooster Bold, he shoots the ball into the goal again. The yellow balls grow. One Penalty tries to kick the ball, but Pegasus uses Voyage and transports the ball into the goal. Rooster Bold is shown shooting the ball 4 more times after. Cat Noir, watching from inside a yellow ball, looks down excitedly, but glances at his ring as it starts beeping that's he's gonna transform back)
Penalty: So you're just gonna keep scoring everytime? That's not fair!
Ladybug: Yep, and that's the way it's gonna be, forever.
"And now King Monkey will have the honor of finishing this game with his power!" Angel announced, pointing to the excited Kim.
King Monkey: Uproar! (Using the power, which gives him a yellow rubber duck, he throws it at a Penalty and the rest of the Penalties' cleats turn to rubber ducks, the goals turn to a bathtub and the yellow balls holding the captured people turn to bubbles.)
Penalty: (stomping around) But… what has this fool done?! My powers are all messed up now!
King Monkey: Nah, I just made it way more fun.
"Nice one, jockstrap!" Alix cheered for her athletic rival as she and everybody else in the audience (including Chloe herself) laughed hard at the outcome of King Monkey's power.
Penalty 2: (All the Penalteam's cleats making squeaky noises) You are so useless!
Penalty 3: No, you're useless!
Penalty 4: You're both ridiculous! Stop going quack-quack!
Penalty 5: You're the one who's going quack-quack!
Penalty 6: (One Penalty trying to take off the rubber duck off another Penalty) Stop making that noise!
Penalty 7: But if we can't move, we can't play!
Penalty: I am done with you! I can't stand you another minute! You're all ridiculous, utterly ridiculous! (Penalty growls angrily and is contacted by Shadow Moth)
"I never thought I'd see the day where Chloe is actually sick of herself…or selves," Adrien pointed out about his childhood friend in which everyone else (including Chloe herself surprisingly) laughed hard in agreement.
Scene: Shadow Moth's Lair
Shadow Moth: Don't give up, Penalty, a little ridiculousness never hurt anyone!
Scene: Champ de Mars
Penalty: You're the one who's ridiculous, and so is your akuma. I'm sick of your games! (Penalty breaks the connection between her and Shadow Moth)
Scene: Shadow Moth's Lair
Shadow Moth: Ahh!
Scene: Champ de Mars. Penalty grabs the akumatized object and smashes it on the ground. The akuma flies out.
Ladybug: (captures the akuma) No more evil-doing for your little akuma…Time to de-evilize! Gotcha! (releases a white butterfly) Bye-bye little butterfly. (throws up her Lucky Charm) Miraculous Ladybug! (everything has been put back to normal)
Scene: Parc des Princes.
Heroes: (do a group fist-bump) Pound it!
"POUND IT!" All the teens in the audience (except for Alya, Alix, and Chloe) do a big group fist-bump while also cheering before the main couple kisses in victory.
"This is so much better to watch than the World Cup!" Marc said excitedly about the whole akumatized soccer experience in which everyone else chuckled in agreement.
Scene: Shadow Moth's Lair
Shadow Moth: Ladybug! I came as an opponent, I'll leave as you're your worst nightmare! (his window closes)
Scene: Parc des Princes.
Marinette: Miss Bustier, Mr. Didier, we've discussed it and we all agree: Chloé shouldn't have to play if she doesn't want to.
Chloé: (throws down her yellow jersey) Oh, that's too kind of you Dupain-Cheng! Yuck!
"Yes it is, Chloe. Take it or leave it," Marinette said gently but firmly to the blonde girl.
"Thanks," Chloe reluctantly said with a sigh to the blue-haired girl with a small smile.
Didier Roustan: Hmm, we're gonna be one player short again.
Nathaniel: Well, I could play. I mean, if it's okay with you? (The rest of the class cheers. Marc picks up the yellow jersey from the ground and hands it to Nathaniel. Chloé angrily walks past them)
"Well, look who's finally coming around," Marc said with a smirk towards his blushing boyfriend in which everyone else chuckled in amusement.
Chloé: (groans and then looks at Sabrina) What are you waiting for?!
Sabrina: Please, Chloé, I'd like to…
Chloé: Ugh, whatever! Go play with these bunch of losers, after all you're just like them. (Stomps off to the bench where Lila is sitting and goes on her phone)
"You're not, Sabrina. You're really not," Chloe softly told her best friend in which Sabrina beamed with a smile towards the blonde girl.
Lila: Welcome to the bench.
Chloé: What's your name again?
Lila: It's not my name that matters, but who I hate. And I think we have a lot in common on that front. (Chloé smirks at her. The end card shows the heroes, Polymouse, King Monkey doing a an upside down punt, Cat Noir running, Ivan, Marc, Sabrina, Nathaniel, Carapace using Shell-ter, Viperion, Ladybug looking back and grinning, Purple Tigress, Vesperia bouncing the ball, and Pegasus sliding on the ground.)
"So what? That sausage-haired lying loser and I are friends now?!" Chloe asked in exasperation towards her alliance with Lila in this future as well as everyone else.
"Yeah, pretty much. You two are teaming up against Marinette from now on like a small "I Hate Marinette Dupain-Cheng" Club. Especially in keeping her away from Adrien," Angel explained in which everyone (including Chloe herself) frowned at that outcome, nervous for what the two girls are going to do to Marinette in the future. "Anyway, now we're at the 2-part season finale called Shadow Moth's Final Attack. Don't get too excited! It doesn't mean that this is the final battle between you heroes and Shadow Moth. You'll see what it means when it gets to the end. Anyway, the first part is called Risk, which I must say is the most subtle akuma ever."
"Why is that?" Marinette asked nervously as well as everyone else.
"First, none of you all, including you two, have any idea that someone's been akumatized," Angel said as she pointed to the two heroes who are confused as well as everyone else. "And that you all have been affected by the supervillain's power. You all will see how. Anyway, let's get to it!"
