At the Egyptian exhibit, Ladybug is hovering in the air, tied up, and Cat Noir trapped inside a sarcophagus.
The Archaeologist floats over to where Ladybug was being held, she struggles as she tries to break free.

Archaeologist: Now that I have both you and Cat Noir in my grasp, nothing will stop me.

A Moth-shaped emblem forms around his eyes.

Hawk Moth: Well done, Archaeologist. Now, take Ladybug's Miraculous, and your task will be completed.

Archaeologist: With pleasure.

Flash rushes in, along with Time Warp.

(WHOOSH!)

Flash: Let them go, Archaeologist! It's over.

Archaeologist: You again?!

Hawk Moth: Take Ladybug's Miraculous, her earrings, NOW!

Just as he reaches for the earrings, Flash and Time Warp rush forward and knock Archaeologist to the ground.

Archaeologist: Ugh!

Time Warp: Flash, you untie Ladybug, and free Cat Noir.
I'll handle Archaeologist.

Flash: Right.

Archaeologist: I'm just getting warmed up.

Archaeologist levitates upward and conjures a whip from the device, swings it and charges.

(Crack, Crack!)

Time Warp rushes forward and grabs the whip and yanks it towards her, knocking Archaeologist out of the air.
Meanwhile, Flash quickly undoes the ropes holding Ladybug.

Ladybug: Thanks.

Flash: No problem.

Ladybug looks towards Time Warp fighting Archaeologist.

Ladybug: Who is tha-, is that Alix?!

Flash: Time Warp, long story.

Ladybug: Huh, not bad, now to free Cat Noir.

Ladybug and Flash rush towards the sarcophagus containing Cat Noir.

Flash: Stand back.

Flash places his hands on the lid and starts vibrating, and rattles the carved-stone slab off of the sarcophagus.

They find Cat Noir wrapped in mummy bandages.

Cat: (Mmm, Mmmph!)

Flash rips off the bandage covering Cat Noir's mouth.

Cat Noir: (GAAAAAASP!)

They help Cat Noir out of the sarcophagus, and Flash quickly unravels Cat Noir out of the bandages.

Cat: Thanks, you two. I honestly don't know how King Tut tolerated that for a thousand years.

Flash: He didn't, but I think you're gonna need this.

He hands Cat Noir his staff back.

Cat: Thanks, Flash. Now let's go give that Archaeologist a present-day takedown!

They see Time Warp get knocked backwards. Ladybug helps her up.

Time Warp: It's no good, I can't take him down myself.

Ladybug: Then let's take him together.

Cat Noir and Flash nod together, then the four heroes look towards Archaeologist, with grim determination, etched on their faces. As the four heroes face Archaeologist, they all charge.

Flash rushes forward and attacks from all directions, before getting knocked back by a mace.

Cat Noir swats the mace out of Archaeologist's hand with his staff, while Ladybug wraps her yoyo around Archaeologist's arm, before being yanked forward and bumping into her partner after Archaeologist dodges another attack from Cat Noir. Then, Time Warp runs around the miniature sandstorm grabbing sand and pressing them into sandballs, and throwing them at Archaeologist. Before she gets knocked back by a chain.

The quartet of heroes gets to their feet.

Cat: It's no good, we just can't seem to take him down to our level.

Flash: I managed to get some hits in, but even that wasn't enough.

Ladybug: Then maybe what we need, is a new plan of attack.

Ladybug launches her yoyo into the air. Magic ladybugs swirling around the yoyo.

Ladybug: LUCKY CHARM!

As the magic ladybugs swirl around in the air, a red and black polkadot bandana materializes, and lands in Ladybug's hand.

Ladybug: A bandana? What am I supposed to do with this?

As Ladybug looks around, her lucky vision locks on:

Her yoyo, The Bandana Lucky Charm, Archeologist's goggles, Cat Noir, The Flash, and Time Warp, and an Obelisk.

Ladybug: Okay, I've got an idea, but it's going to take all four of us, I need you all to be ready.

Cat Noir: Will do, M'lady.

Flash: You're in charge, Ladybug.

Time Warp: Let's clean his clock.

As Ladybug spins her yoyo, she charges, deflecting arrows being fired. She throws her yoyo, knocks the bow out off his hand and lassos Archaeologist. She leaps onto the Obelisk, jumps on top of his shoulders and blinds him with the bandana, as they grapple with each other.

Ladybug: Flash, you're up!

Flash: You got it!

Flash runs around the sandstorm, and causes it to dissipate.

Ladybug: Cat Noir, now!

Cat Noir: CATACLYSM!

Cat Noir uses his power and Cataclysms the base of the Obelisk, Ladybug jump's off of Archaeologist.

Ladybug: End this, Time Warp!

Time Warp grabs the device and tosses it to Ladybug, while Archaeologist struggles to hold up the structure.

Archaeologist: Ahh!

Time Warp: I'll take that! Ladybug, catch!

And finally, Flash rushes forward and grabs Archaeologist out from under the Obelisk.

Archaeologist: NOOOO!

Ladybug breaks the device and the akuma flies out.

Ladybug opens up her yoyo.

Ladybug: No more evil-doing for you, little akuma.

She whirls the yoyo around.

Ladybug: Time to de-evilize!

She captures the Akuma, and grabs the yoyo.
And releases the purified butterfly.

Ladybug: Gotcha! Bye bye, little butterfly.

She takes the bandana and throws it in the air.

Ladybug: MIRACULOUS LADYBUG!

The Lucky Charm disperses and the Miraculous Ladybugs reverse all the damage caused by Archaeologist, repairs the Cataclysmed obelisk, and fixes the Particle scanner.

Now on his knees, Archaeologist turns back into Alim Kubdel.

Cat Noir and Ladybug gesture to Flash with a fist bump, Flash looks confused.

Time Warp: It's something they do after defeating the villain.

Flash: Oh, okay.

Ladybug, Cat Noir, Flash, and Time Warp: POUND IT!
