Tearjerker / Miraculous Ninja

• All of the events leading up to Theresa's Akumatization.
  • First she gets blown off (however unintentionally) by her friends Debbie and Alya, feeling like she is unable to help their respective investigations.
  • Then, Coach Green chews her out for adding a ribbon to her twirling routine, and forces her to sit out the rest of the lesson.
  • Deciding to look for Randy, she runs into Kagami, who is not only vague on where her cousin is, but makes a blunt suggestion that Theresa work on her upper body strength if she wants to be 'worth anything' at twirling. Poor girl is upset to have her confidence undermined in her primary hobby.
  • After that she tries to help Marinette ask out Adrien, giving her simple, but usable advice, and holding up a sign to help her stay on track. Sadly, this results in Marinette fainting partway through, and her next talk with Theresa has her viciously yell at her for her failed help, and says she shouldn't share her ideas with other people, and that her own crush would reject her. Damn.
• Chloe is saddened to hear that her mother goes by her maiden name when in the States, wondering if she doesn't want to be associated with her or Andre.
• Arthur Camson is an enthusiastic and friendly entomologist, who has spent the past five years building up a research center in his apartment. He then loses almost all of that when his narrow minded neighbour decides to call an exterminator on the false claim of an 'infestation', fumigating his apartment and killing all his specimens. Who then has the gall to telling him that's what he deserves for not studying 'real animals'. Little wonder the man has a breakdown after that.
• Desperate to keep her blog relevant, Heidi performs an interview with Marinette, promising to keep some responses off the notepad, all while having a hidden camera recording her. The video in question displays not only her feelings, but several of the creepier things Marinette has done to get closer to Adrien, like learning his schedule three years in advance and sneaking into the guys party. All from a girl Marinette thought she could trust.
  • As a result, not only the people of Norrisville, but those in Paris (and it's implied many worldwide) are not only aware of Marinette's crush, but her worst moments, getting her labelled as a creepy stalker. The subsequent mockery has the poor girl run off and on the verge of a panic attack.
• Despite Heidi being purified, the damage has already been done. Marinette gets labelled as a stalker and almost everyone in Norrisville tries to avoid her or see her as a weirdo. It even reaches to borderline Nightmare Fuel territory when it reaches a point were people started putting boxes of spiders in her locker, post false rumours about her online, and even do horrible graffiti on her kiosk. Needless to say, the poor baker girl is horrified and deeply upset by all these misfortunes happening to her.
