Scene: Rooftops of the Jardins du Trocadéro. Following the events of the previous episode, the Parisians continue cheering for a comforted Ladybug.

Parisians: Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug!

Nadja Chamack: (off-screen) Paris is in great turmoil after the villain who now goes by Monarch has stolen almost every Miraculous and Ranger Power from Ladybug and The Red Ranger!

Monarch: I am Monarch, more powerful than ever! Listen, I will be attacking you tirelessly! Unless someone brings me Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculous!

The Parisians start booing at Monarch.

Nadja Chamack: Despite these threats, the population still supports Ladybug and The Red Ranger. Monarch may have won this battle, but the war for Power has only just begun!

Ladybug: Hawk Moth, Shadow Moth, or Monarch - whatever your name is - you'll never steal Cat Noir's Miraculous, or mine!

Cat Noir: And we won't stop fighting until we've got every single one of the others back!

S. Mega Red: That morphers mine asshole!!!

Cat Noir leaps out and successfully breaks Monarch's Shell-ter with his staff. Ladybug hurls her yo-yo and dissolves the akumas that were summoned by Monarch's Message Transmission. With his disappearance, the Parisians started cheering.

Ladybug: Thank you, Cat Noir.

Cat Noir: It's you and me. (he turns and waves to the crowd)

Scene: Interior, the Agreste mansion's crypt. Gabriel stands in front of Emilie's cryogenic pod without his helmet but still morphed as the Kwamis huddle fearfully behind him.

Gabriel: My love, I have taken control over the Guardian's magic jewels. Our victory is almost complete!

Ladybug: (on the rooftop of the Trocadero) Monarch's victory will never be complete!

Gabriel: All I need now are the Ladybug and the Cat Miraculous. Once I get them, I'll combine the two and fulfill the magic wish that will bring you back to me!

Sass: (flies beside Gabriel) Please reconsider. If you bring her back, someone will have to leave in her place. It's too dangerous!

Gabriel: Silence!

Sass' mouth magically closes shut, preventing him from speaking.

Scene: On the Trocadero rooftops, Ladybug and Cat Noir stand before the Parisians.

Cat Noir: We will not be forced into silence!

Ladybug: We will not be prisoners to Monarch!

The Parisians continue to cheer for Paris' beloved heroes.

Scene: Interior, the Agreste mansion's crypt. The Kwamis continue to huddle in fear before Gabriel.

Gabriel: You are not my prisoners, you are my slaves!

Woahhh chilll....

Gabriel: And I am your master! Do you understand, you stupid creatures??

The Kwamis continue to shudder in terror. Gabriel brings out his phone to call Nathalie, who is still on the train.

Gabriel: (on-call) Nathalie, Ladybug has finally faulted! Taking risks has paid off! I have nearly all of the Miraculous, including the one of Evolution, granting the power of time travel!

Nathalie: (on the train) Gabriel, wait for me. As soon as I'm home, we'll-

Gabriel: How many times in the past was I so close to seizing Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculous? By returning to the past, I'll be able to anticipate their actions and steal their magic jewels when they're at their weakest! Or rather when they were at their weakest!
