Marinette arrives at the Agreste mansion in her waitress attire, right on 6:30 and is directed through the staff entrance.

'Head waitress in sight!' Marinette says through the communicator.

'Good luck, Marinette!' Alya says to Marinette through the communicator back at the Liberty.

'Hi there!' Marinette greets the head waitress. 'I'm Marinette, Adrien asked me to help out since one of the waiters was ill!'

'Oh! Nice to meet you. Yes, Adrien did mention you'd be coming. My name is Sarah. Here's the deal, this is a very private party with very important people! We have to be invisible. The only contact we'll have with Gabriel Agreste will be when he takes our fingerprints to check our identities.

'Oh, ok, sure!' Mari replied.

'We're just here for food prep in the kitchen and overseeing the young people. The robots will be serving the adults. Follow me, everything will be fine!' Sarah said.

'Okay!' Marinette replied as she followed after her.

In the Agreste mansion, Gabriel was using his tablet to do all of his security measures. It was almost time for his guests to start arriving.

Gabriel locks his office. 'Office locked, check.' He closes the curtains. 'Dining room, check. Accessories, check.'

A van arrives outside the mansion.

'Catering, check. Activate scrambler...'

The doorbell rings. Adrien's bodyguard goes to the door, but Gabriel interrupts him.

'You handle the cellphone scrambler, I'll take care of greeting my guests.'

Adrien's bodyguard goes to the table full of remotes, and presses a remote button, due to which all the window shutters start to open and close automatically. He presses another button due to which robots come out and start circling the bodyguard. He presses another button, due to which everything becomes normal.

'Welcome' Gabriel says to his guests as they enter.

The guests scan their fingerprints onto Gabriel's tablet, and wear the provided masquerade masks.

Marinette and Sarah enter and also get their fingerprints scanned.

'Thank you.' Gabriel says.

'I'm in!' Marinette whispers.

'Yes, well done!' Alya replies.

André and Audrey arrive with Chloe. 'How come you're doing all the work tonight, Gabriel? If you needed more servants, you just have to ask us to lend you more' Audrey says.

'Welcoming you is never work, dear Audrey' Gabriel replies, as he kisses her hand.

Amelie and Felix are heading toward the entrance. Gabriel tenses up at seeing Felix and drops the finger scanning tablet he's holding, but manages to catch it. His scarf comes loose and he adjusts his scarf to hide the brooches, but Felix happens to notices them anyway.

Amelie greets him. 'Gabriel! I'm so happy to be able to thank you in person for giving our family's ring back to Felix' she says, as she kisses his cheeks.

'It was the sensible thing to do, Amelie' Gabriel replies.

Adrien smiles. 'That was very thoughtful of you, Father.'

Marinette says to Sarah 'I can handle serving the young people, after all, I am one!'

'I'd much rather you stay in the kitchen' Sarah replied.
