History Recap / MiraculousLadybugS03E23Felix

** On a related note, Adrien's aunt initially seems innocently unaware of her son's behavior but she's happy Félix got (understand ''stole'') Gabriel's ring. She said it was a family heirloom, but the main reason she wanted the rings back was to give them to Felix, who was always fascinated by them.

* EvilVsEvil: Downplayed with Amilie, but Felix and Gabriel pulls that.

** On a related note, Adrien's aunt initially seems innocently unaware of her son's behavior but she's happy Félix stole Gabriel's ring. That said, her exact reason seems unclear… she implies it was a family heirloom.

* LonelyRichKid: Invoked by Adrien to justify Félix's behavior. Gabriel, Nathalie, Marinette and the audience don't buy it.

** On a related note, Adrien's aunt initially seems innocently unaware of her son's behavior but she's happy Félix stole Gabriel's ring. That said, her exact reason seems unclear… she implies it was a family heirloom. Whether she has more sinister intentions or is unaware of what the ring is truly capable of is yet to be seen.

When Adrien's cousin F%eacute;lix visits Paris, a disaster comes between Adrien and his friends. Alya, Rose and Juleka are akumatized into a trio of Punishers.

* AffectionatePickpocket: F%eacute;lix uses a hug to take Adrien's phone, and later a handshake to steal Gabriel's ring.

** F%eacute;lix does the same, managing to avoid their attacks and strike back a few times, until Ladybug grabs him. He also takes a punch from ''Ladybug'', a superhero, and doesn't seem to be any more hurt by it than he would be by a normal person doing the same.

* TheBadGuyWins: F%eacute;lix manages to swipe Gabriel's ring at the end, much to his mother's pleasure, that being why she came to Paris to begin with.
* CassandraTruth: Whether it was part of Adrian's plan or not, he was telling the truth when he said F%eacute;lix was the one responsible. The Punisher Trio thought this was a ploy F%eacute;lix would pull instead of Adrian defending his cousin.
* ChekhovsGun: In "Gorizilla", the production company that made Emilie's film was Graham Films, and their company logo was two interlocking rings. Now we know that for whatever reason, Gabriel and Emilie's wedding rings are wanted back by Emilie's side of the family, the Graham de Vanily's, or at least by Amelie and F%eacute;lix.

* ChekhovsSkill: While catching up in the bedroom, Adrian casually mentions F%eacute;lix being a magician and doing karate. The karate is helpful avoiding the enemies while his magic is how F%eacute;lix can so easily pickpocket Gabriel and his cousin.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: F%eacute;lix, while disguised as Adrien, tries to force himself on Ladybug, even attempting to kiss her, which leads to Ladybug punching her in retaliation. It brings to mind [[AttemptedRape something very odious and inapproptiate for a kids' show]].

* EvilBrit: Played with in that Amelie and F%eacute;lix live in London, but they only moved there from France. Regardless of where their current residence is, they're antagonistic to the rest of the cast.
* HiddenDepths: Though Chlo%eacute; has always been a little less mean to "Adrikins" than other people, her message to him is surprisingly empathetic, and maybe the sweetest thing ever to come out of her mouth.
* {{Irony}}: Ladybug unmasks F%eacute;lix by noticing Adrien would never be that pushy. While obviously more respectful and sincere, Cat Noir (aka ''Adrien himself'') has three seasons worth of being "pushy" with his lady.

** F%eacute;lix sows discord between Adrien and his friends for no other reason except to have fun, soon after he rummages through Adrien's bedroom and messes with Plagg's cheese. By the end of the episode, [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk he ''doesn't'' learn his lesson]].
** F%eacute;lix attempts to make a deal with ''Hawk Moth'' to work alongside the Punishers in claiming the Miraculous, in exchange for his aunt and uncle's wedding rings. Obviously Hawk Moth has no intention of upholding the deal, but allows it nonetheless if he gets the Miraculous first.
* LonelyRichKid: Invoked by Adrien to justify F%eacute;lix's behavior. Gabriel, Nathalie, Marinette and the audience don't buy it.
* MythologyGag: This is F%eacute;lix's first appearance in this series. He was the original Cat Noir in the anime style reel, "Ladybug PV".

** Averted at another point when Plagg refers to F%eacute;lix as a "cheese murderer" for messing with his Camembert.

* ObnoxiousInLaws: Gabriel and Amelie don't hold each other in high regards, with Gabriel seeing through her [[BitchInSheepsClothing sheep's clothing]] and Amelie (and F%eacute;lix, and possibly the rest of her side of the family) hold a grudge against him for currently unknown reasons and want his and Emilie's wedding rings back for some plans of their own.

** When F%eacute;lix sends a hateful message using Adrien's phone, pretending to be Adrien, Marinette refuses to buy it because it's wildly out of character. However, the others aren't as convinced because they've only known him since he started coming to public school, leading to the creation of the Punisher Trio.
** F%eacute;lix tries to make a move on Ladybug when she rescues him, but she knows something's up because Adrien would never be so forward. Cat Noir then explains the situation.

* PolarOppositeTwins: Cousins in this case. Unlike Adrien, F%eacute;lix is malicious and sneaky.

* SpotTheImposter: The Punisher Trio arrive in Adrien's room, only to find both Adrien and F%eacute;lix impersonating him. Adrien points the finger at F%eacute;lix, but the Punisher Trio take this to mean he must be F%eacute;lix, since they don't believe Adrien would rat out his cousin. Adrien decides to play into it to lead them away, but Hawk Moth interrupts to point out what Adrien is doing.
* StatusQuoIsGod: Marinette admits she loves Adrien in the group message she and her friends send Adrien, but F%eacute;lix deletes it so Adrien will never see it.

* TrueCompanions: How Adrien really see his friends. Despite being akumatized because of F%eacute;lix' fake message, Lady [=WiFi=], Reflekta and Princess Fragance are quick to recognize the real Adrien would never do something that low and turn their attention to the real culprit.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: F%eacute;lix looks so much like his cousin Adrien that he can impersonate him in a close-up video call to his friends, and even face to face with Ladybug. Like ''Series/ThePattyDukeShow'', they are "identical cousins" and their mothers are implied to be twin sisters.
* TheWorfBarrage: Despite having THREE akumatized villains around this time, none of them pose a serious threat to Ladybug and Cat Noir. Even against Nathalie and F%eacute;lix, who are both normal people, they struggle; Fragrance loses her perfume bottle and Reflekta can't get a good aim on her without causing friendly fire, causing the two to fight Nat hand to hand, who proceeds to hand them their asses. Once she gets a shot off, Reflekta transforms Nathalie, but it still takes [=WiFi=] pausing her to stop her. As for F%eacute;lix, he fends off all three ''simultaneously'', with the trio not even able to land a blow or shot on him.

* MythologyGag: This is Félix's first appearance in this series. He was the original Cat Noir in the anime style reel, "Ladybug PV".
* NeverSayDie: The episode takes place a year since Emilie "went away forever", as Adrien puts it. Marinette then says that he "lost" his mom, so the mistaken belief that Emilie died is still there.

* ObnoxiousInLaws: Gabriel and Amelie don't hold each other in high regards, with Gabriel seeing through her [[BitchInSheepsClothing sheep's clothing]] and Amelie (and Felix, and possibly the rest of her side of the family) hold a grudge against him for currently unknown reasons and want his and Emilie's wedding rings back for some plans of their own.

* PetTheDog: Adrien's classmates and other friends, including Lila (although that could easily be cited to [[ClingyJealousGirl another reason]]) and Chloe, send him a video to show him they support him on the day of his mother's disappearance.
* PolarOppositeTwins: Cousins in this case. Unlike Adrien, Félix is malicious and sneaky.

As for Felix, he fends off all three ''simultaneously'', with the trio not even able to land a blow or shot on him.

* NeverSayDie: The episode takes place a year since Emilie "went away forever", according to Adrien. It's not clear if he actually thinks she died, if she had gone missing, or ran away.

* DramaticIrony: Given that the previous episode was [[Recap/MiraculousLadybugS03E22ChatBlanc "Chat Blanc"]], of course this happens. The episode starts with Nathalie convincing Gabriel to confess the truth to Adrien about Emilie and his activities as Hawk Moth because it'll be harder for him to accept it if it takes longer and he finds out himself. And as Adrien waits for his dad to come down to talk to him, he's thoughtlessly singing the same song he was singing as Chat Blanc...

** Felix sows discord between Adrien and his friends for no other reason aside to have fun, soon after he rummages through Adrien's bedroom and mess with Plagg's cheese. By the end of the episode, he ''doesn't'' learn his lesson.

* BaitAndSwitch: The audience (and Adrien) are initially led to believe that Emilie has awakened, only for it to turn out to be Adrien's aunt (presumably Emilie's twin sister.)
