Adrien was on his bed looking up a the ceiling, pondering on what to do. Nino was busy helping his little brother out with his homework, Marinette had a bunch of fashion designs to finish up, Kagami was busy fencing. trying to 

Adrien: "Plagg, I honestly don't know what to do right now. It's all going blank for me right now."

Plagg: "Well buddy, usually I would say or do something to cheer you up...buuut. Well...yeah. You may want to go to one of your friends. Maybe they can help out with whatever you're dealing with."

Adrien: "I wish I could, but they're all busy right now."

Plagg: "You crazy cheese wheel, I'm talking about the ones you hardly ever talk to. You know, Alix, Nathaniel, and especially Juleka. You hardly ever talk to them these days."

Adrien: "Oh yeah. You know..."

Suddenly, Adrien then began to realize that all this time while he had close friends in his circle he hadn't taken a better opportunity to expand his friend group. The boy then hoped of the bed and went outside.

Plagg: "Good to see you taking my advice kid."

Adrien: "Yeah, but the problem is that I don't even know which person to go to first."

As Adrien was pondering on which friend he wanted to see,  he then noticed Juleka was on her phone looking up some USB-pianos for her GarageBand, FL Studios, and Kontact software. 

Juleka: "I wonder if this will-"

Adrien: "Hey Juleka."

Juleka shyly looked up from her phone and saw Adrien waving at her.

Juleka: "Oh, hello Adrien. What bring you here?"

Adrien: "I was just going around looking for someone to hang out since everyone is busy. So, what are you up to?"

Juleka: "Ah, nothing much, just looking up some USB-Pianos."

Adrien: "That's actually awesome."

Juleka: "Well yes, it is. In fact here, let me show you."

After Juleka showed him the midi-pianos she pressed the phones home button logging out of the app. Adrien noticed the wallpaper on her phone.

Adrien: "Wow that's looks amazing. It's good to see that you're still interested in fashion."

Juleka: "Well yes, in fact I've been doing that more often lately."

Juleka showed Adrien the rest of her work and he was impressed by the modeling she did.

Adrien: "Juleka, this is just...amazing."

Juleka: "I'm glad you it Adrien."

Adrien: "Might I suggest some tips for even better results?"

Juleka: "I would be glad to hear them."

As Adrien and Juleka were talking about fashion and getting deep within their conversation, Plagg couldn't help but notice how the two of them were behaving towards each other. No, they were not acting in any romantic way, but more like siblings. Brother and sister bond.

Meanwhile in Gabriel's domicile. Gabriel was keeping things in order.

Gabriel: "Okay Nooroo, I'll let you talk with your kwami friends while I work on my tablet."

Nooroo: "Thank you master."

As Gabriel entered his tablet, he checked on the security cameras, he noticed Adrien talking to Juleka. This causes the man to get curious.

Gabriel: "Who is that girl is Adrien talking too?"

Gabriel turned up the volume to hear the conversation.

Juleka; "Thank you very much for hanging out with me  and giving out tips on fashion Adrien. I've always wanted to have a part in that."

Adrien: "Don't mention it Juleka."

Gabriel: "Juleka? Hmm, where have I heard that name before?"

As he pondered and pondered on the quest a bit more, Gabriel then remembered that in one of his social gatherings Jagged had mentioned that he had a son Luka and Juleka is his daughter. This gets the man very excited since the son of Jagged knows the identities of Ladybug and Cat Noir. The fact that his daughter was friend with his son gets him excited, since there was a chance that she could also know her brother's secret as well.

Gabriel: "So Jagged's offspring is becoming friends with my son, and she is also interested in fashion. There could be such a great opportunity right here. And I will gladly take it."
