In the dining room, Tom set the table and Sabine put the finishing touches on dinner.

Tom: There. The table is all set.

Sabine: Thank you, honey. Do you wanna call them down for dinner?

Tom: Sure. Kids, dinner's ready! *Marinette and Timmy walk downstairs to the dining room.*

Marinette: What smells so good?

Timmy: What are we having?

Tom: Your mom is cooking.

Sabine: It's meatloaf with peas and mashed potatoes. *She holds the dish from the oven.*

Marinette: Looks good.

Timmy: I'm hungry. *Sabine giggled.*

Sabine: It's all done. Here you go. *She put the dish at the center of the table and along with the bowl of peas and mashed potatoes, Tom cut up the meatloaf into slices and served one to Marinette.*

Marinette: Thank you.

Tom: You're welcome. *He served one to Timmy.*

Timmy: Thank you.

Tom: You're welcome. *He served one to Sabine.*

Sabine: Thank you.

Tom: You're welcome. *He served one to himself, Marinette reach for the bowl of peas and scoop some on her plate, she pass the bowl to Timmy, he scoop some on his plate and he passes it to his mom, she scoop some onto her plate, and she passes it to Tom, he scoops some on his plate, same thing with the mashed potatoes, they all start eating.*

Sabine: Kids, I got some good news. Try to guess.

Marinette: You're having another baby?

Sabine: No.

Timmy: We're having lasagna tomorrow night?

Sabine: Nope.

Marinette: What is it?

Sabine: Your great uncle Wang is coming here tomorrow.

Timmy: Great uncle Wang? Really?

Marinette: Is he gonna teach us how to make his soup?

Sabine: I don't know if he will. But he's coming tomorrow to spend some time with us.

Marinette: Wow.

Sabine: I know he was akumatized months ago, but it was all in the past.

Timmy: What happened? *He scoops some peas and eats them, and Marinette drinks some water.*

Tom: He was akumatized as Kung Food.

Marinette: It was awful.

Timmy: Really?

Sabine: Yes. But luckily it's all over. *She takes a bite of meatloaf.*

Marinette: It feels like this family is getting more akumatized. First Great uncle Wang as Kung Food, then Nona as Benfana, grandpa as Baketrix, and your dad as Were-dad.

Tom: Honey...

Marinette: I'm afraid mom, Timmy, and... myself could be next.

Tom: Marinette, nothing won't happen like that.

Sabine: Exactly. Things happened and they go away. So it won't happen again.

Marinette: I hope so. *They finish up their dinner.*


In Marinette's room, Marinette writes in her diary, Tikki hovering next to her.

Tikki: You okay? You were a little upset earlier.

Marinette: Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm fine. Tikki. Just don't know what came over me. *She closes her diary and put it in her hiding place.*

Tikki: Don't worry Marinette. Like what your dad said, "It will never happen again."

Marinette: Let's hope. *She turns off her desk lamp, goes up to her balcony, and thinks for a little bit.* Should I patrol?

Tikki: Best not. Since we haven't seen a villain at night.

Marinette: True. *She sits in her chair and looks up at the sky, she breathes a little bit and she grinned too.* (Hopefully tomorrow will be better.)
