In the daytime, I'm Marinette.
Just a normal girl, with a normal life.
But there's something about me that no one knows yet.
Because I've got a secret.

(Alarm)
Hmm.
Huh? Ding Ox. Fire and Yin.
Not so great.
Unless...
Mmm-hmm.
Hmm. There! This should prevent negative energy
from flowing in.
There!
(Harmonious Chinese music)
Dim Sum Delight?
Yes, I'd like to make a reservation.
For noon.
Two people.
(Takes deep breath)
(Yawning) Aaah!
- Oh... - Morning, honey!
Did you study until late again?
TV) The News with Nadja Chamack.
Last night, Ladybug and Cat Noir prevented the explosion
of a turbine, saving Paris om drowning in rotten chocolate!
It's all lies! My chocolate turbine was perfectly clean!
(Chuckles) Yeah, lots of homework, Mom!
Will you start the laundry please, honey?
- Your coffee, my love! - Aw! Thanks,
my sweet honey bun!
My! You've grown again!
- Oh! Sorry! - It's all right, sweetie!
Oh! Mom, my shoes are getting too small.
- Could you buy me a new pair? - What a good idea, honey!
Why not meet me after my painting class?
Oh! Let's get some dim sum before we go to the store!
Of course!
We interrupt our newscast
for a Sentimonster alert.
Lollipop Boy has made a reappearance
- near Scipion Street Square. - Ah! Oh, boy, oh, boy!
- I'm super late for class! - Marinette, it's Saturday.
- There's no school today! - Oh... right...
I meant late for Alya's. We're doing a presentation.
You won't forget to meet me at the end of class?
- I won't! - And you won't forget
- to buy a ticket for the bus? - Promise!
And you won't forget to change, will you?
- What? Oh! Aaah! - (Chuckles)
Your mom is amazing! Even though she's so busy,
she always organizes everything so well.
The exact opposite of me!
Do you realize? I'm more than a month late
for Mother's Day!
I wanted to make her something,
but I barely had time to get started on it.
It's such a bummer. Today would've been the perfect time
to make it up to her.
Hang on! What if I buy her a gift
before going to meet her?
Great idea, Marinette! But first,
we've got to take care of a Sentimonster!
Tikki, spots on!
The chouquettes for your students are ready to go,
- my brilliant artist! - Thanks, my love!
Chinese paintbrushes are very different
from Western ones. They allow you to easily master
the "five shades of ink," dry, concentrated, thick,
clear, and diluted.
If you use them well,
all these nuances can make up
all the colors, texture and light
you need to represent the world.
- (Thud) - (Screaming)
Cat Noir! Block his way!
Got it, Milady!
Those poor kids! They spent the whole night saving Paris,
and are back in action!
Miraculous Ladybug!
I'm here. I'm watching it right now.
Spots off!
Now I can go meet up with my mom!
But, Marinette, you can't go looking like that!
Aaah! I've gotta get back to the house! Hide, Tikki!
Hmm? Hmm.
(Sighs)
It's Marinette! Leave a message! Beep! (Laughs)
Honey, it's Mom!
You have exactly four chouquettes to show up!
Good day, sir! May I put this here
while I look for my wallet?
- Oh! Wow! Chouquettes! - A few left over from my class.
They're homemade. You'd be doing me a favor by eating them.
As long as it doesn't hold up the bus.
Oh, well, if I can be of service to a commuter!
Mmm! Exquisite! Mmm!
Mmm! Delicious! Oh, scrumptious!
- Mmm! - Ah! (Panting) I'm here!
- Ooh! - This is my daughter,
Marinette, who, I'm certain, did not forget her ticket!
(Gasps) Oh, shoot! Um, well, uh, thing is...
Marinette, I asked you to remember it.
Ah! It's no biggie, I'll just buy one.
Argh! No, I forgot my change.
Luckily, I've always got a few spares!
Thanks, Super-Mom! Mwah!
Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm. Look, in terms of the process,
when it comes to re-evaluating the products,
the market demands a high yield in terms of productivity.
Hello, sir. Would you be so kind as to let this person access
the spot reserved for them?
Hey, I'm on a conference call here!
So, what I was saying. Yeah,
concomitantly with the situational adaptability,
the managers should make the negotiable systems converge.
- Hmm. - No, no, we need a strong plan.
If we aren't flexible regarding our mobilized relations,
we're gonna get creamed!
Thank you. Your sense of civic responsibility is appreciated.
Next stop, Louise Michel.
Shoot! I forgot the pres--!
Uh... The presentation! It's a magazine!
A new magazine with Adrien on the cover!
Can I borrow your wallet? I must get it.
Are you sure? You won't have time to get off and back on
- during the stop. - I'll be so quick!
Please, please, please, please!
- Louise Michel! - Thank you!
This one, please. Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!
- Um... - Thanks!
You're buying her a present with her money?
Yeah, I know. But I don't have cash!
I'll pay her back later! (Gasps)
No! Wait!
(Panting) Oh!
Next stop, Claire Lacombe.
- (Phone rings) - Mom! The bus left without me!
- I know, honey, I'm on it. - What do I do now?
I'll get off at the next stop and wait for you. Meet me there.
Claire Lacombe!
- Ticket inspection, please. - Hello, sir.
My daughter got off with mine.
But we're meeting up at this stop.
She shouldn't be too long.
Why don't we wait for her together?
Huh! No one's ever tried that one on me before!
Non-payment of fares, that's a 50 euro fine!
How will you be paying?
Unfortunately, sir, I have no money with me.
- My daughter has my wallet. - Ha, ha! Of course!
And I suppose you don't have any ID with you either?
Well, obviously! I just explained to you
- that my daughter has my wa-- - We'll see at the next stop.
Not with your daughter, but with a real police officer
- who's going to take you in! - What? But that's so unfair!
What's unfair is stealing from Parisians
who do pay for their tickets, ma'am!
(Panting)
Where is she?
Hey, there! I got a customer for you!
No ticket, no money, no ID, and, get this,
she even made up a family with a daughter!
Ah, Roger! Perfect timing! Tell this man I'm not lying!
Our daughters are together in the same class!
Seriously, this woman just can't stop lying!
Uh, well, the thing is... Yeah, it's the truth, but...
- The truth but what? - Well, uh... I'm sorry, Sabine,
but you didn't have a ticket. That's a violation!
And without ID, to boot! You know it's my duty
to take you in for an identity check!
An identity check? Are you kidding, Roger?
You've known me for years!
Watch out, she's getting aggressive!
- The law is the law! - (Phone rings)
- Hang on. - Whoa! Whoa! Don't move!
- Check her purse! - What is wrong with you?
It must be Marinette! She must be worried!
You never know! She might have some dangerous stuff in there!
- Oh, oops! - Oh, come on, be careful!
Between you and your nonsense and him and his,
- it's all nonsense! - Whoa!
You need to calm down right now!
You are two inches away from insulting a public official!
That's right! Insult! Insult!
- Is there a problem here? - Yes!
I am victim of an injustice!
You'll speak when asked to.
We've been as reasonable as we can about this,
but as you're not cooperating,
I have no choice but to do my duty!
What? But I haven't done anything!
You're not really helping your case, ma'am!
- The law is the law! - I don't believe this!
Are you people humans or robots?
Injustice, abuse of power and blind ignorance.
Three powerful plagues
that can cause even the most stable of souls to waver!
It's our responsibility to tip her over the brink
so she can become a weapon against Ladybug and Cat Noir!
(Police sound fearful)
Qilin, I am Shadow Moth.
They put you in handcuffs despite your innocence.
Thanks to me, you can repair this injustice!
I refuse to hurt anyone!
You can keep your power, you devious insect!
Ah! You're judging me without knowing me,
when I'm actually just like you, a victim of misunderstanding.
And, like you, I don't want to hurt anyone.
- I don't believe you. - Here's proof.
If you accept, I will offer you
a mighty power to accomplish your noble mission!
So be it! When all injustices have been righted,
peace will prevail!
(Screaming)
You've reached Sabine's voicemail.
This is so weird, Tikki.
My mom would never have just left me like this!
(Police sirens)
You're under arrest! Give yourself up now!
SABINE: Take these handcuffs off me!
Run! She's crazy!
Oh, no! What if Mom's in trouble?
Tikki, spots on!
No way I'm going back there!
- Thanks, Ladybug! - Where's Mom? Uh! Ma'am!
- The one with the chouquettes? - She was arrested.
(Gasps) Arrested?
There's no way!
SABINE: You're unworthy of your mission!
Ignorance has corrupted your souls!
Qilin will show you the true meaning of justice!
Move the mountains!
Aaah!
Climb the lightning bolts!
Hang from the clouds!
General, use trucks to block the perimeter!
We need to attack from the west!
Ask for backup! Get more backup!
Sir! Uh, I mean, Mr Mayor!
Where are the tanks and jets you promised?
Quake the Earth!
Aaah!
I am innocent! Get these handcuffs off me!
Otherwise, you will suffer under the weight of injustice!
Aaah!
Stop! You're putting innocent lives in danger!
Ladybug! Where was she when your innocence was in question?
Don't listen to this hypocrite! Take her Miraculous!
If they're serving injustice, then they are not innocent!
If you defend them, you're not on the side of justice either!
Careful! The weather forecast predicted a shower of objects!
Good thing you've got your umbrella, then!
First one to catch her wins!
This isn't a game, Cat Noir!
Roll back the waves!
Capture the rainbow!
Aaah!
(Police sirens)
She's impossible to catch!
Not to mention even getting near her!
How do we break the object that holds the akuma?
Bring in the net and flip the turtle!
An injustice to one is a threat to all!
Take these handcuffs off me!
Things are more complicated than they seem.
We have to find out more! Cover me!
Those are some poetic nicknames for your attacks!
I like 'em! Where's your inspiration from?
- Crush the cat! - Aaah! Whoa!
Not such a fan of this one!
Do any of you know what injustice she's talking about?
How would I know? She started it!
We were just following orders!
What was she like before this?
Terrifying! Really stubborn and a liar!
She kept saying she had a daughter who got off the bus
- with the tickets... - Who was coming back!
- A load of baloney! - Aaah!
A daughter who got off with the tickets?
Well, how about we find that daughter?
That could work! The injustice would be repaired,
and she wouldn't stay akumatized!
Let's see if your idea is really that good. Cover me!
Excuse me, I got the impression you were trying to say something
just now with that flying truck?
Oh! Right! It's much clearer now!
Thing is, kitty-cat, for Marinette to appear,
I'd have to de-transform. That's pretty risky.
I'd better be sure it'll calm down Mom before I do it!
Qilin! Roger! It's silly to fight over a few bus tickets!
It's not about tickets! It's about principles!
Grr!
Aaah! If we find the girl who has them,
we can prove it was just a misunderstanding!
- She's lying! It's a trap! - Really?
- They'd all stop attacking me? - I promise you!
- Take these handcuffs off me! - Absolutely not!
My duty is in question! You didn't have a ticket!
- You broke the law! - And the law is the law!
You're mistaking Law for Justice!
Integrity without intelligence is nothing but blind ignorance!
General, begin Operation Butterfly Net!
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
Chase the storm!
(Screaming)
- (Groaning) - Oh, well,
so much for my great idea! Back to the old-fashioned way.
Swipe those handcuffs and break 'em!
Exactly!
Lucky Charm!
A ray gun? Hmm...
To stop this, we just need to remove those handcuffs.
And I just need the key to do that. So, why a ray gun?
- Roger! Give me your keys! - Are you out of your mind?
She's unstoppable with handcuffs!
If we take them off, she'll destroy everything!
- He's right! - Stop being so stubborn!
Give them to me, or I'll take them by force!
In that case, you too will be breaking the law, Miss Ladybug!
Guys? Cover me!
POLICEMEN: Charge!
Hmm.
Of course! That's what I was missing!
- More opponents? - Sort of!
In order to de-akumatize Qilin, we also have to stop
the attacks from the police! Here's my plan.
Cataclysm!
This way, officers!
(Anxious cries)
- Aaah! - Roger! Fancy meeting you here!
- Sorry! - Aaah!
Destruction of public property!
Theft of authority's equipment!
Absurd cat ears and bell!
It's for justice and the common good!
You'll thank me later!
We're on the same side here!
The key to our problem!
- Qilin! - You again?
Here are the keys! See? I keep my promises!
Qilin! Don't let her trick you! Take her Miraculous!
Grr!
No, that would be unfair.
No!
No more evil-doing for you, little akuma!
Time to de-evilize!
Gotcha!
Bye-bye, little butterfly!
Miraculous Ladybug!
Here is a magical charm. Always keep it with you.
It will protect you from Shadow Moth!
- BOTH: Pound it! - Let's go! To the station, now!
Yes! Identity check, custody and the whole works!
Hang on! I know Mrs. Dupain-Cheng.
No one in the world is more upright and honest than she is!
Roger, we won't stop you from doing your duty.
But you have to promise me you won't use those handcuffs,
and you'll wait for her daughter before you make any decisions.
The law is a good thing, but you need humanity to apply it well.
Well, I... I promise, Ladybug!
- What do you mean, Roger? - She's right!
Say, there, you're not gonna get akumatized again, are you?
- (Groans) - Mom!
I've been looking for you everywhere! (Panting)
Happy Mother's Day, Mom! I'm a bit late, I know,
but I just had so much work recently!
But, someday, I'll manage to handle it all, just like you.
I know, darling.
Here are our tickets! I ran into Ladybug!
She explained the problem to me!
So?
- They're... They're valid. - Hmm.
- You weren't lying. - Does this mean
we can cancel the fine and the ID check?
That doesn't change the fact this lady was on the bus
without a ticket! The situation is a bit complex.
But I guess that, yes, it would be reasonable to cancel it all.
The truth is, I was out of line, too. I am so, so sorry, Mom!
This is all my fault.
Which is why I'd like to pay
the fine with my pocket money!
That's quite a responsible act, young lady!
But... well, just for now,
could you lend me the money, please?
(Lively music)
