'''Chat Noirt:''' Only when '''''her highness''''' calls the shots.\\

-->'''Initial Reaction'''\\

'''Alya:''' Makes sense.\\\

** Meanwhile, Pollen gives her Kawagatama to Marinette and Tikki explains what it is. Marinette thanks Pollen for the gift before looking at the similar gift she got on her birthday as Tikki gets an oh crap expression.

'''Chat Noir:''' Oh, you know, just [[IncrediblyLamePun hanging around]].\\

* As Chloé searches the park for a pair of buddies to tag along with so that they can do all the work of finding Adrien, Tikki questions why she didn't just sign up. As it turns out, Chloé ''did'' do that, but her application was denied for "some reason" (she's still banned from contests involving the Gabriel brand due to her plagiarism in "Mr. Pigeon" but either forgot or [[DramaticallyMissinfThePoint has trouble making the connection]]).

* Jagged is a pretty BadLiar, at least around Anarka. When he claims his guitarist "sailed away," Anarka
just scoffs, "Lie better!"

'''Chat Noir[=/=]Marigold:''' '''''[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Seriously?!]]'''''

* As the principal introduces Zoé to her classmates, he tells them "Please obey, ''I mean'', give her a warm welcome."
* Upon trying to ask Adrien what Zoé is like, Adrien reveals that this is his first time learning about her as well, causing his friends to wonder how he somehow didn't know his childhood friend had a sister.
* Chloé shows the class a video of her and Scarlet Lady speaking (only ever showing one of them at a time of course) and [[ButHeSoundsHandsome praising each other]], and Alya calls her out for expecting them to buy that bull. Chloé replies it's the real Scarlet Lady... and it turns out Alya ''believes'' that. What she really meant was that Chloé ''and'' Scar are liars for claiming Scar cleans up after Chat Noir and Marigold's messes. Meanwhile, Zoé squints in confusion as she watches the video and tries to figure out what the hell is happening.

* André asks why Chloé wants Zoé to be banished from Paris.

* It disgusts both Chloé and Zoé to see how OutOfCharacter their mother behaves under Malediktator's power.

'''Audrey Bourgeois:''' [[HonorOverReason I only fly first class, you weird little bug.]]\\

* Marigold hanging a lampshade on the fact that Chloé, who was a completely useless hero, is making for a surprisingly challenging Akuma.

* Zoé's method for avoiding detection? Wear a trash can over her head. And it ''works''.

--> '''Queen Wasp''': What's their obsession with smelly places!?

** This is also the [[RunningGag third time]] Gabriel has been out of breath due to making a mad dash to his liar so he can akumatize someone.

* [[IRejectYourReality Chloé decides that Adrien was just being dramatic with the whole thing of not being her friend]] and declares that they're still friends because ''she'' forgives ''him'' for teasing her, even adding how "nice" she is for doing this.

** The fact that Penny has copies of the NDA with her clipboard indicates that either this isn't the first time she's accidentally let slip that Jagged has children and/or that she's just that CrazyPrepared.

* Adrien actually ''cries'' when he sees how cool Kitty Section's submission for Bob Roth's contest looks. Plagg even pats his face to comfort him.

* Marigold leads everyone to the sewers. Scarlet Lady keeps hopping from foot to foot and saying "Ew!"

* Juleka tells Marinette that she knows who her father is and that he doesn't get along with her mother. Marinette immediately asks Juleka if he's a cop.

* [[SeenItAll Since he's Gabriel's son]], Adrien [[ComicallyMissingThePoint doesn't bat an eye at Juleka and Luka's dad being someone who can't enter a cinema without causing a scene and has a manager they must talk through]]. Marinette, in the other hand, has wide eyes and {{Sweat Drop}}s.

** It gets funnier when you realize this pay homage to Boris Grishenko of ''Film/GoldenEye'': "I am invincible!" is both his CharacterCatchphrase and [[spoiler:the last thing he says in the film right before he's splashed with liquid nitrogen and flash-frozen to death]].

** Upon learning about Alya's exposé, Scarlet Lady tries to dismiss it as defamation, meaning the heroine either doesn't know that defamation only applies to false statements or is so deluded that she doesn't realize everything in Alya's article really did happen.
* Chloé complains that the people of Paris can't imagine the sacrifices she made for them.
-->'''Chloé:''' I didn't wear designer earrings for a '''year''' to be their hero!
* Gabriel exclaims he has the unique opportunity of Akumatizing someone with a Miraculous. Nooroo internally notes the stupidity of doing so when that "someone" is ''Chloé Bourgeois''.

* When Audrey offers to make Marinette a bigger name than Gabriel Agreste, the man himself gives out an indignant [[ImStandingRightHere "Hey."]] Adrien then tries to be supportive of the idea of Marinette leaving Paris to work for Audrey in New York and offers to model for Marinette, but the latter points out he's [[BloodFromTheMouth bleeding from the mouth]] (a RunningGag for whenever someone tries to tell too big of a BlatantLie).

* As Chloé searches the park for a pair of buddies to tag along with so that they can do all the work of finding Adrien, Tikki questions why she didn't just sign up. As it turns out, Chloé ''did'' do that, but her application was denied for "some reason" (she's still banned from contests involving the Gabriel brand due to her plagiarism in "Mr. Pigeon").

* Since he's Gabriel's son, Adrien [[SeenItAll doesn't bat an eye]] at Juleka and Luka's dad being someone who can't enter a cinema without causing a scene and has a manager they must talk through. Marinette, in the other hand, has wide eyes and {{Sweat Drop}}s.

* When Scarlet Lady tries to blame Zoé for causing Malediktator, saying it's because Zoé didn't defned the heroine in class earlier, Zoé hits her RageBreakingPoint. The Ladybug heroine is caught quite off guard when Zoé mentions how ubiquitous superheroes are in New York and left at a loss for words when Zoé asks how the incident in the classroom has anything to do with André.

* When Marigold arrives after Style Queen has left , Plagg shows up, much to her surprise. When she nervously asks why the Kwami isn't with Chat Noir, [[IKnowYouKnowIKnow the Kwami smugly responds that she knows exactly]] ''[[IKnowYouKnowIKnow why]]'' [[IKnowYouKnowIKnow her partner isn't gonna be available today]] that only leaves Marigold to {{sweatdrop}} as she concedes she does.

* After Marigold uses Bee Balm, Chloé looks like she just woke up from oversleeping, with a line of drool coming from her mouth. Meanwhile, Marigold carries away Adrien, who dreamily tells her how good she looks with her hair down... before asking where he is.
* When Chloé finally manages to transform into Scarlet Lady and meets Marigold (who has just paralyzed Style Queen), she wastes several minutes trying to come up with the best way to present herself to her mother, much to Marigold's annoyance.
-->'''Marigold:''' You really have no respect for other people's time, ''[[SuddenlyShouting DO YOU, SCARLET?]]'' Fix this already!

'''Audrey Bourgeois:''' I only fly first class, you weird little bug.\\

* As Audrey and Chloé begin strutting their way down the stairs (which takes about twenty minutes in RealLife), [[StatingTheSimpleSolution Alya decides to just take the elevator]]. Even funnier is that the author revealed she made the duo still take the stairs in this AU despite the elevator working just fine (it was broken in the show, leaving no option but the stairs) to punish them for their antics at the fashion show.

---> '''Tags:''' #it's okay Adrien, I too would've gone the Fucking with Scarlet Route"instead of the Smart route

* Audrey offers Marinette the chance to work for her in New York. Adrien tries to be supportive by offering to model for Marinette, but the latter points out he's [[BloodFromTheMouth bleeding from the mouth]].
** When Audrey offers to make Marinette a bigger name than Gabriel Agreste, the man himself gives out an indignant [[ImStandingRightHere "Hey!"]]

* The Bonus Pages show the aftermath from the heroes' point of view:

* Scarlet Lady keeps boasting about her not-so-SecretIdentity, but now everyone's deliberately ignoring her. Then she tries to get Alya to interview her, but Alya (who months before would have jumped at the chance) tells her she doesn't want it with the most deadpan face ever. LaserGuidedKarma at its finest.

-->'''Caption:''' This could've been over sooner but SOMEONE was wrapped up in his REVENGE fantasies smh.

** Pretty much everyone has hilarious shocked looks on their faces after Chloé cancels her party and presumably [[GetOut kicks them all out]] after Adrien refused to forgive her. Marinette and Adrien fail to realize this is because they've finally seen Scarlet Lady for TheMillstone she really is and mistakenly attribute it to the party being cancelled.

* Chloé has no intention of fighting the Sapotis at first. She is taking a well-deserved (in her mind) spa treatment when the Sapotis make it personal by throwing mud[[labelnote:*]] well, one ''hopes'' that's mud! [[/labelnote]] in her face.

-->'''Chloé:''' I can't believe you took me to such a discusting place to recharge! You're heartless!\\

* Adrien goes to Master Fu for another Miraculous to help with the Sapotis. When Adrien says he has a person in mind for it, Master Fu asks, "It's not Marinette again, is it?" Adrien denies it, but a narration box says, "Totally was."

* After the battle, when Marigold offers to escort the Césaires home, Scarlet Lady promptly begins to make up an excuse as to why she can't join them, only for Marigold to snark that she didn't expect her to do anything anyways.

* As in canon, the Fox holder is tempted to keep Trixx. The Kwami is also starry-eyed and begging. Seems like they hit it off really well.

-->'''Chloé:''' Stop having your soap opera moment and '''''GET ME OUT!'''''

'''Lila:''' [[DeadpanSnarker If it helps, I care more about the "not crashing" part.]]

-->'''''Lila: HURRY UP SO I CAN GO BACK TO MY ROOM!'''''

* When Adrien and Marigold finally confirm each other's SecretIdentity and have their first BigDamnKiss, [[MomentKiller Plagg chooses to complain.]]
-->'''Plagg:''' You two are gonna make me lose my lunch. My cheesy lunch.\\
'''Adrien:''' Not '''now''', Plagg!

* Immediately following the previous episode, Marinette reveals that Pollen knows who Scarlet Lady is, Plagg asks if that means the Kwamis are telling their owners about the reveals, to Adrien's shock. The way Plagg says it implies he would've said something sooner but was going along with what Tikki (mainly) and Pollen were doing.
** Marinette asking Adrien if he could've used his powers when he was [[TimeMaster Aspik]] to figure out Scarlet Lady's identity. Adrien, who spent the entire time along with how many [[{{Troll}} Second Chances just to screw with]] [[AssholeVictim Scarlet Lady]], has a brief HeroicBSOD when he realizes that he could've done exactly that.
** The narration is at least sympathetic to Adrien's decision:
---> '''Narrator''': It's okay Adrien, I too would've gone the "Fucking with Scarlet Route" instead of the Smart Route.
* With the fashion back in swing, Alya is recording for her blog when she notices none other than Gabriel Agreste showing up in public. Since he has never made a physical appearence outside of his home until now, Alya's reaction is both justified and hilarious:
--> '''Marinette''': Is that really-\\
'''Alya''': A [=GHOST=]!\\
'''Marinette''': Alya, ''no''.
* After Gabriel starts hugging him, Adrien is shocked and assumes that it must be due to fear over Style Queen turning him into glitter. The comic then shows Gabriel sobbing over how an Akuma he'd been planning for months got defeated so quickly.
* [[OhCrap Zoé's face]] when she realizes Chloé is about to explode from Audrey's praise of Marinette...and likely the fact she's less than a foot from her. As the narration puts it best:
-->'''Narrator''': Quick, get out of the blast radius!
* Audrey offers Marinette the chance to work for her in New York. Adrien tries to be supportive by offering to model for Marinette, but the latter points out he's bleeding from the mouth.
* Chloé demands to be taken go New York, arguing she's exceptional. Audrey roasts her by listing a few of her many failures, getting banned by the Gabriel brand, losing the race for class president, and was kicked off of World's Greatest Chef, (which were all her attempts to beat or show up Marinette, mind you). [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Chloé blushes because it means her mother has been paying attention to what she does.]]

* At long last Chloé's SecretIdentity as Scarlet Lady is revealed and the only way how it could've: Chloé has one of her typical temper tantrums and ''outs herself'' to everyone including '''broadcasting it to all of Paris!''' All to impress her mother and prove that she's more exceptional than Marinette.
** Everyone's reaction after the InternalReveal. [[FantasticallyIndifferent Audrey's simply walks off]] while [[HypocriticalHumor stating how she was always such a showoff]] while the parents (Tom, Sabine, and Gabriel) awkwardly suggest they leave this to the heroes and go home. The best has to be Adrien and Marinette's:
---> '''Adrien''': ''[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe She's]]'' [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Scarlet Lady]]?\\
'''Marinette''': [[ThisExplainsSoMuch I]] '''[[ThisExplainsSoMuch hate]]''' [[ThisExplainsSoMuch that that makes sense.]]

** Adrien and Gabriel are silently sitting in the backseat sweating bullets as they work very hard, for totally different reasons, not to show their reaction to the news of who Scarlet Lady is.
** Tom and Sabine meanwhile are discussing Audrey's offer with Tom is already making plans to move their whole family to New York and open a bakery, excited by all the potential experiences to be had while Sabine points out of the logistics (moving to a foreign country, learning a new language, etc.). The caption dubs them "the two halves of Marinette's brain."

* At long last Chloé's SecretIdentity as Scarlet Lady is revealed and the only way how it could've: Chloé has one of her typical temper tantrums and ''outs herself'' to everyone including '''broadcasting it to all of Paris!''' All to impress her mother and prove that she's exceptional not Marinette.

---> '''Adrien''': ''[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe She's]]'' [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Scarlet Lady]]?
---> '''Marinette''': [[ThisExplainsSoMuch I]] '''[[ThisExplainsSoMuch hate]]''' [[ThisExplainsSoMuch that that makes sense.]]
* The Bonus Pages in the aftermath from the heroes' point of view:

---> '''Marinette''': [[ThisExplainsSoMuch I]] '''[[ThisExplainsSoMuch hate]]'''[[ThisExplainsSoMuch that that makes sense.]]

* At long last Chloé's SecretIdentity as Scarlet Lady is revealed and the only way how it could've: Chloé has one of her typical {{Temper Tantrum}}s and ''outs herself'' to everyone including '''broadcasting it to all of Paris!'''

* At long last Chloé's SecretIdentity as Scarlet Lady is revealed and the only way how it could've: Chloé has one of her typical TemperTantrums and ''outs herself'' to everyone including '''broadcasting it to all of Paris!'''
