Scene: Interior, Dupain-Cheng Residence, Sabine's bedroom. An alarm clock beeps as it struck at six in the morning.

Sabine turns it off and steps out of her room with a towel rolled on her head. She flips the calendar to the 14th.

Sabine: Ah! Ding Ox, fire and yin. Not so great. Unless... (while arranging a flower vase) There. This should prevent negative energy from flowing in.

She grabs her pen and book from table beside her bed and heads to get their laundry basket.

Sabine: (places the laundry basket at the bottom of the staircase) There!

She turns on the television to play calming music and starts meditating. As the music continues to play, she gracefully places her book on the table and a sponge on the floor.

She prepares tea on the table, turns on the thermos and the stove on, organizes her painting materials and answers the phone.

Sabine: Dimsum Delight? Yes, I'd like to make a reservation. For noon. Two people.

She continues to prepare breakfast as the music continues playing as she finishes her mediation.

Marinette comes down the stairs, yawning, trips on her feet and tumbles down, causing her to fall on the laundry basket Sabine placed earlier.

Sabine: Morning, honey. Did you stay up all night doing homework again?

The news starts to be broadcasted on television.

Nadja Chamack: (on TV) Last night, Ladybug, The Rangers and Cat Noir successfully prevented the explosion of a turbine of a cocoa shop factory, saving Paris from drowning in rotten chocolate.

Man on the TV: It's a bunch of lies! My chocolate turbine was perfectly clean!

Marinette: (chuckles) Yeah, lots of homework, Mom.

Sabine: Will you start the laundry please, honey? (heads to the bakery and gives Tom a cup of coffee) Your coffee, my love.

Tom: Aww, thanks, my sweet honey bun. (kisses Sabine)

Yuck...

Sabine goes back upstairs and swiftly checks on Marinette's height, marking it on the wall with her pen.

Sabine: My, you've grown again!

Marinette sits on the dining table and pours milk on her bowl. She shortly bumped her arm on the milk carton, causing to spill on the floor.

Marinette: (nervously) Ah! Sorry!

Sabine: It's alright, sweetie. (grabs the sponge that absorbed the spilled milk)

Zane: Alright Ma I'm out me and kagami are gonna get breakfast!

Zane runs out.

Sabine: Be safe! I love you!

Zaria walks downstairs.

Zaria: Me and max are going out for breakfast Ma!

Sabine: Be safe! I love you!

Zaria leaves.

Zeke: Me, Rose and Juleka are gonna get breakfast Ma!

Zeke leaves.

Sabine: Be safe! I love you!

Marinette: (spots the magazine on the table) Oh, Mom! My shoes are getting too small. Do you think you could buy me a new pair?

Sabine: What a good idea, honey! Why don't you meet me right after my painting class?

Marinette: Oh! Let's get some dimsum for lunch before we go to the store!
