History Recap / ScarletLadyS5E7Frozer

* HiddenDepths: Both Luka and Kagami are revealed to be very talented ice skaters. Not only that, but it's implied neither of them have received any formal training, with Kagami apparently having learned it just by watching the Martial Arts Skating Arc from ''Anime/RanmaOneHalf''.

* NotSoAboveItAll: Kagami admits she mostly came to the rink to have fun watching everyone skate (or try to). She also learned how to skate after watching anime (namely the Martial Arts Skating Arc from ''Anime/RanmaOneHalf'').

* ShoutOut: According to Adrien, Kagami learned to ice skate by watching the Martial Arts Skating Arc in ''Anime/RanmaOneHalf''.

* BaitAndSwitch: When Chat Noir tells Marigold he's 85% certain of her identity, she reacts in shock--because she's only 75% certain of ''his'' identity.

Marigold tells Chat Noir that she was meant to have the Ladybug Miraculous, which he takes just fine, since he believes it makes sense. However, Marigold isn't as enthused about this: while it is a huge lead on Scarlet Lady's identity, it's ''also'' a huge lead on her own, which makes her uncomfortable.

But Chat Noir dismissively declares that he's, like 85% sure that he's figured ''that'' out already, much to Marigold's shock -- she's only ''75%'' certain about her theory of who ''HE'' is! Gloatingly, Chat Noir declares that he's ''SO'' certain that he's going to be asking her civilian alter ego out tomorrow, stunning her further--"You think you know who I am and that makes you want to ''DATE ME?!''"

Flexing, Chat Noir presses her: "You ''will'' say yes, right? Since you're in ''looooooove''~" Smacking and scolding him for his overconfidence, Marigold retorts that ''he'd'' better say yes when ''SHE'' asks ''HIM'' out!

Fortunately, when they arrive to school, they immediately march towards each other and simultaneously ask each other out on a date. While their classmates cheer on them, Chloé is visibly angry and jealous.

At the end of the day, the two agree to have their date the next Friday, after school, and split off, happy that they finally have a date with each other - only for both to realize that this is their first date ever, so they have no idea what to do, so they run to ask their classmates in order to get ideas.

Adrien, unfortunately, keeps striking out, as every one of the couples he asks (Alya and Nino, Ivan and Mylène, Marc and Nathaniel) mention how they got together because of Akumas, much to his chagrin. He then quickly rushes over to ask Juleka, who unfortunately can't say much on account of Rose being the one to handle most of the wooing. Luka, however, is willing to give him a hand on it.

Meanwhile, Marinette runs into similar problems when Kim and Ondine remind her they got together after both of them were Akumatized. Marinette turns to beg Kagami for help, even more after she learns Luka will be there as well. When Kagami agrees to support her, Ondine suggests Marinette to take Adrien to the ice rink. However, Kim misses the point and decides to take Ondine there as well, and suggests the same to all the other couples in their class - with the end result of Chloé learning of it by accident.

Next Friday, the Mayor shows up, intending to close the ice rink and replace it with a gym for Chloé - ahem, for Paris: given how low attendance is, it isn't as if people will miss it. However, just then the dating pairs arrive to the rink, ready to make use of it, so the Mayor decides to give Philippe, the ice rink caretaker, a last chance: if he signs up someone for skating classes within ten minutes, he'll put the renovation on hold. However, Chloé isn't going to let that keep her from ruining the dates, so she puts on some skates and an outfit for it.

Adrien asks Luka for some last-minute ideas, afraid about the possibility that Marinette may not see this as a date, but Luka encourages him. Meanwhile, Kagami states she's only there because it'd be funny to watch everything. As they go into the rink, Alya wonders if Luka and Kagami are together, but they both shoot it down, on account of Kagami being only into girls.

Kim and Ondine are the first on the rink - but this also means Kim is the first to slip and fall, since he doesn't have as much experience in skating as Alix. Philippe asks if he's interested in lessons, but Kim rejects the offer.

Between Philippe harassing the students to sign up, and Chloé just shoving people around, Nino notes he understands why no one comes to the rink. However, Marinette and Adrien are still having fun as they try to skate, holding onto each other and talking - even as Luka and Kagami show off their skating skills. Philippe approaches the duo, who quickly shoot down Philippe's offers of teaching.

Even as Nino has fun faking being a bad skater to hold Alya tight, things aren't going as fine for everyone else due to Chloé and Philippe. The latter, after failing to recruit either Rose or Juleka, finally notices Adrien Agreste is at the rink, and quickly skates over to him - bowling Marinette over without any regards to her safety and injuring her. Seeing that Philippe failed to sign anyone to the lessons, the Mayor forces the skater to give up.

Adrien takes Marinette to the locker rooms to check on her injured leg, and apologizes for the date, but Marinette doesn't mind - she's having fun with him, and that's all that matters. Chloé, meanwhile, attempts to further ruin the date by crashing their encounter at the lockers, but Philippe becomes Akumatized just then. Adrien splits off from Marinette in order to "go get help", and the three heroes give their Kwamis the food with the ice magic potion.

Frozer immediately moves to cover a good part of Paris in ice, and Marigold states they need to slow the Akuma down with a trap - causing Chat Noir and Marigold to flirt once more, much to Scarlet Lady's confusion. As they try to skate away from Frozer, Chat Noir suggests Marigold to spring up her trap idea - calling her "Ma Princesse", much to Marigold's shock.

Regardless of these events, Marigold's trap works, and Chat Noir manages to destroy the Akumatized object - Frozer's skates - allowing Scarlet to fix everything. After the fight, Marigold asks Chat Noir why he called her "princess", but Scarlet interrupts by saying it's because she has a tiara.

In the end, Adrien saves the day by endorsing the rink and Philippe, making the Mayor realize that trying to shut everything down will not be good. Much to André's relief, Chloé doesn't care about it anymore - as far as she's concerned, the date was ruined, so there's no way Adrien and Marinette will try again after that disaster. However, she's quickly proven wrong when she sees them embracing each other.

* ArmorPiercingQuestion: PlayedForLaughs when Plagg asks Adrien "So, what if Goldilocks is wrong about who ''you'' are?", triggering his [[ExplainExplainOhCrap belated realization]].
* AskAStupidQuestion: Adrien is not thrilled with the DatePeepers during the denouncement:
-->'''Adrien:''' And do you all '''mind?!'''\\
'''Rose:''' Nah.\\
'''Alya:''' ''(filming, offering them a thumbs-up)'' Keep going.
* BaitAndSwitch: When Chat Noir tells Marigold he's 85% certain of her identity, she reacts in shock - because she's only 75% certain of ''his'' identity.
* BigNo: Chloé belts one out upon seeing Marinette and Adrien sharing a hug after their not-so-ruined date.

** Rose gets a pair while planning to invite Juleka to the ice rink on Friday, blissfully unaware that she's [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom accidentally informing Chloé of everyone's plans]].

* BrickJoke: Back during "Animan", both Nino and Marinette regarded the idea of spending time together at the zoo with Adrien and Alya as a "chill hangout" rather than a "date". Two seasons later, Marinette and Adrien panic over the fact that neither has ever been on what they considered to be a date before.
* CallBack:
** Nino reminds Adrien that he and Alya got together after [[Recap/ScarletLadyS3E7Animan Marigold locked them into the panther exhibit]] to protect them from Animan and they figured out [[CommonalityConnection how much they had in common]].

** When Marinette tells Adrien she always has fun with him, Adrien asks her if [[Recap/ScarletLadyS5E3Gorizilla the time when they were chased all over Paris by his fans]] also counts.

** Kim doesn't realize that Ondine suggested the ice rink as a place Marinette and Adrien (and Kagami and Luka) could have some ''privacy'', proceeding to invite himself and his girlfriend along before extending an invitation to all of their other friends.

** Marinette asks Chat Noir why he just called her "Ma Princesse". Scarlet Lady interrupts by stating it's obvious - she's wearing a tiara!
** When Adrien shouts at his {{date peep|ers}}ing classmates if they don't mind (clearly wanting them to give him and Marinette privacy), Rose deliberately misses the point so she can keep watching.

-->'''Kim:''' Hey, 'nette? I thought Nino was ''good'' at skating.\\
'''Marinette:''' ''(flatly)'' He ''is''.
* DatePeepers: Alya and Nino agree to going to the ice rink for a date just to peep on Adrien and Marinette's first date. Then, at the end of the chapter, everyone just watches them confess to each other, even if they're being {{Moment Killer}}s supreme.

** Chat Noir brags to Marigold about his plans to ask her out in her civilian identity, goading her to declare she'll be asking out the person she suspects is ''HIM'' in response. He doesn't consider the potential consequences of either of them being wrong until Plagg points them out.

* DressedInLayers: Chloé wears a puffy longcoat to conceal the fact that she's wearing aa ice-skating costume, which she [[FlungClothing dramatically reveals]] as she prepares to sabotage Philippe's efforts to save his skating rink. Philippe can't help questioning why she was wearing such a thing in the first place when she intended to shut his business down.
* EasilyForgiven: Adrien holds no rancor towards Philippe even after he harassed his classmates and hurt Marinette, even endorsing the rink on his social network accounts.
* EveryoneHasStandards: While Philippe is desperate to sign ''someone'' up for his skating lessons, he backs off from Rose when she mentions she has health troubles.
* EvilIsPetty: Much like in canon, Chloé tries to have the ice rink closed so that a gym can be built on the place. However, here her actual intentions are much pettier, as she's just doing it to ruin Adrien and Marinette's first date. Getting to ruin several others' dates in the process is just a bonus.
* ExplainExplainOhCrap: When Adrien casually informs Plagg that if Marigold ''hasn't'' figured out his SecretIdentity, then she'll obviously ask some ''other'' guy out and date ''HIM'' instead, he promptly stops dead and repeats "Oh. She'll go out with ''some other guy''."

-->'''Philippe:''' ''(beaming down at the pair who have just been shoved down)'' You two look like you could use some skate lessons!\\
'''Nathaniel:''' ''(flipping him off)'' I think ''you'' could use a lesson in ''tact''.
* HypocriticalHumor: Chloé, who was planning to make her father close the ice rink, shows up there wearing an ice skater outfit.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Despite being interested in Marinette himself, Luka is willing to tag along on their date and assist Adrien.
* ImStandingRightHere: Upon realizing that ''Adrien Agreste'' is currently visiting his rink, Philippe immediately wonders "Why was I wasting my time on these normies when ''he'' was here?!" He's still standing next to Rose and Juleka, one of whom points out that they can still hear him.

'''Kagami:''' '''Girls.'''

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Philippe, the ice rink caretaker, is so desperate to find someone that will sign up for his skating lessons that he keeps acting insensitively towards the students using the rink.
* InsultOfEndearment: Marinette lovingly calls Adrien 'dork'.
* LoonyFan: Adrien {{Exploit|edTrope}}s this in order to save the ice rink; he takes a selfie with Philippe and gushes on social media about how much fun he had hanging out with his friends there. Mayor André balks at the prospect of how the model's fanbase would react if he shuts the place down.

* NeverMyFault: {{Downplayed}} when Chloé remarks to herself that an akuma ruined Adrien and Marinette's date, without directly acknowledging that it was an akuma SHE caused.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Many of the couples among Adrien and Marinette's friends formed because the appearance of Akumas either pushed them together or caused them to acknowledge their feelings in some way.
* NotHelpingYourCase: Philippe's attempts to convince people to sign up for skating lessons repeatedly fall flat due to his poor timing, lack of tact, and refusal to take no for an answer. He approaches Kim, Marc and Nathaniel immediately after they've wiped out, and harasses the clearly nervous Juleka and Rose, pursuing them as they're trying to get away.
-->'''Nino:''' ''(to Alya, watching Philippe)'' I think I know why no one comes here.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Kagami admits she mostly came to the rink to have fun watching everyone skating (or trying to). She also learned how to skate after watching anime (the Martial Arts Skating Arc from ''Anime/RanmaOneHalf'').

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Both Adrien and Marinette have the same realization about how things could go wrong if either of them is wrong about each other's identity. They also realize at the same time that they don't know what to do on a date, and ask their friends for pointers.

** Chloé [[EvilGloating gloats to herself]] that there's no ''way'' Marinette and Adrien will be willing to give dating each other another shot after their date was ruined by an akuma, only to immediately spot the two embracing right outside her limo's window.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Kim deciding that he and Ondine should hit the ice rink on the same day as Marinette and Adrien leads to several other couples inviting themselves along... and Chloé overhearing their plans when Rose gushes to herself about the idea, enabling her to go on the offensive with her scheme to shut the whole place down.
* VerbalBackspace: Mayor Bourgeois does this when he declares that he's turning the ice rink into a gym for "ma chére fille--uh, for Paris", underscoring how he's blatantly abusing his station again.
* YouCalledMeXItMustBeSerious: Variation - when planning out how to deal with Frozer, Chat Noir calls Marigold "Ma Princesse", which is the nickname he uses for ''Marinette''.

Flexing, Chat Noir presses her: "You ''will'' say yes, right? Since you're in ''looooooove''~" Smacking and scolding him for his overconfidence, Marigold retorts that he'd better say yes when ''SHE'' asks ''HIM'' out!

At the end of the day, the two agree to have their date the next Friday, after school, and split off, happy that they finally have a date with each other - only for both to realize that this is their first date ever, so they have no idea on what to do, so they run to ask their classmates in order to get ideas.

Philippe can't help questioning why she was wearing such a thing in the first place when she intended to shut his business down.

* ImcompatibleOrientation: Luka and Kagami shoot down Alya's attempt to suggest [[PairTheSpares they should hook up]] by pointing out that he isn't her type.

Chat Noir doesn't see it as much of an issue: he's 85% certain he knows her identity! While Marigold grumbles about only being 75% certain of his identity and about "losing the game", Chat Noir states he's so certain that he intends to ask "her" out the next day, much to Marigold's shock. When Chat Noir smugly tells her she needs to say yes to "M. 75%", since she's in love with him, Marigold hits him.

The next day, as Adrien gets ready for school, Plagg asks him what he plans to do, and Adrien replies he'll get a date with Marinette even if she isn't Marigold. Then Plagg asks him what will happen if Marigold is wrong, which gives Adrien pause when he realizes the implications - while Marinette is having the same realization.

Marigold just told Cat Noir the revelation that she was meant to have the Ladybug Miraculous, a revelation he's not surprised about, given how it made sense. Marigold, however, notes that while it's a huge lead on Scarlet Lady's identity, it's also a huge lead on her own.

Cat Noir doesn't see it as much of an issue, however, given that he's about 85% certain of her identity. Marigold pouts that she's only 75% sure, which means that she's losing in their little guessing game. Actually, correction, he's so sure that he'll ask her out the next day, which to Marigold's shock, who can only
