Scene: Exterior, Collège Françoise Dupont. Marinette and Kagami arrive at the school riding on Zane's dirt bike whilst Adrien is seen waiting at the entrance for Kagami. Looking up from his phone, Adrien sees Marinette in awestruck as she removes her helmet to fix her hair.

Kagami: (upon giving Marinette her helmet) Thanks, Marinette. Thanks Z.

Zane winks, she kisses him and then walks to the school entrance to join Adrien.

Marinette: Enjoy training! (gasps as she notices Adrien at a distance)

Kagami: Sorry, I'm late, Adrien.

Adrien keeps waving at Marinette with a lovesick smile, distracted by how she looks with her hair down, to which Kagami notices after joining him.

Marinette waves back awkwardly.

Marinette: DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE!

Zane: Damn bitch ok.

He proceeds to drive away on his bike.

Adrien: (continues to wave his hand, enthralled) Why did Marinette take off that fast?

Kagami: Because she doesn't take fencing class with us? And Unmatched Retconned Zane in the fencing class.

An anvil comes down at her she avoids it.

Kagami: It was a joke!

Adrien frowns at Kagami's remark.

Scene: Interior, Collège Françoise Dupont, in the locker room. Kagami has finished changing into her fencing uniform and sees Adrien, who is taking a look at one of her art pieces - a beautiful watercolor art of Marinette.

Kagami: Like what you're seeing?

Adrien gets cut off from his enamored trance.

Adrien: Huh? W-What? Who?

Kagami: My watercolor. Do you like it?

Adrien: It's like... (stares back at the art piece, mesmerized) you can almost see through her eyes, deep into her soul. So beautiful. (realization dawns) The watercolor, I mean. It's so beautiful.

Kagami scoffs at Adrien's attempt at pretending. She grabs her phone and reaches it to him.

Kagami: You're going to ask Marinette out.

Adrien: Huh? But why?

Kagami: Because you obviously have feelings for her. Call her.

Adrien: Of course, I don't. She's just a friend.

Kagami: You look at her the way I used to wish you'd looked at me. Call her.

Adrien: (frowns) No, you're wrong.

Kagami: There are none so blind as those who will not look at themselves in the mirror. Call her.

Adrien: But, ask her out how? What do I say?

Kagami: If your feelings were as clear as you're pretending, you wouldn't have any reason to hesitate like that.

Adrien hesitantly grabs Kagami's phone from her hand.

Scene: Liberty. Zane and Marinette arrive at the houseboat on his bike. Kitty Section, along with Mylène, are gathered on stage.

Marinette: Hey, guys! I got stickers for the band! (shows custom stickers on her hand)

The rest cheers.

Marinette: I made one version with the record label logo on it (shows a Kitty Section custom sticker with a crown logo) and another without it. (shows a plain Kitty Section custom sticker)
