Miraculous Ladybug; Watching the Show

The Pharaoh

Jade chuckled at Alix and pressed play. "This episode has my favourite Chat Noir line in it!" They said smiling.

[ Theme Song ]

Scene: Dupain-Cheng House. A video of Alya Césaire in Paris is being viewed.

Alya: Don't blink now, 'cause we are live from Paris. Yo peeps, Alya here, bringing you the one and only Ladyblog. (Helicopter noises) Huh? What is that? (Ladybug flies by, hanging on to her yo-yo, tied to a helicopter. She drops a book.) Ladybug in action. Hang on 'cause we're going for a ride. (Alya runs over and picks up the book.) Freak out! What you got here is no ordinary book, it's a tenth grade history book. And I should know, 'cause I've got this very same book. Could our very own Ladybug be a high school student, (zoom out to reveal the Ladyblog website, which Marinette Dupain-Cheng is watching the video from) in real life? Whoa!

"I can't believe I was right all along!" Alya shouted in excitement.

"Imagine if you found out back then that Ladybug was your best friend this entire time!" Adrien snorted.

"She would probably go insane!" Nino joked and everybody burst into laughter, including Alya.

"You're not wrong!" Alya said back.

Marinette: I told you from day one Tikki, I'm a total klutz!

"If you were a superhero, you'd do something like that and everyone would know who you are." Issie joked, nudging Jade.

"Nah. They'd find out 'cause I wouldn't be able to keep it a secret." Issie chuckled. "It's true! I'm autistic, you know I struggle to lie!" Issie just nodded in agreement.

Tikki: What's done is done; we can't change what happened. We can only move forward. Alya must not find out who you are. You know how persistent she can be with her blog totally dedicated to Ladybug.

"Yeah! Maybe a little too persistent and dedicated." Marinette said about her best friend who looked at her with a frown while everybody else chuckled in agreement.

Marinette: But how? Maybe I'm not cut out for this whole Ladybug thing.

Tikki: You are the chosen one, Marinette. It will all work out, trust me. Everyone has a past they can learn from. (Tikki types on the computer, bringing up a page on Egyptian pharaohs.) This will show you why.

Marinette: An exhibition at the Louvre? On the pharaoh Tutankhamun? What does that have to do with my book and Alya?

Tikki: You must persuade Alya to go there with you, and make sure she brings the book. You'll tell her you found out something about Ladybug.

"So, it was your idea for Marinette to take me to that boring museum exhibit!" Alya accused, pointing at Tikki.

"Well, as you found out, it did actually have something to do with Ladybug," Tikki replied, giggling, while everyone else, minus the hosts, is intrigued.

Marinette: At the museum?

Tikki: You'll see!

Marinette: Well, I don't know how I'm gonna convince Alya to go to an Egyptian exhibit, much less convince her that I'm not Ladybug!

Tikki: She will be interested, and so will you. Promise.

"Tikki, next time something like this happens, please tell me what's going on beforehand. I was so confused and didn't know what I was supposed to be doing or showing her." Marinette said.
