Animals are running loose through the streets.
Nadja: (news report) Nadja Chamack, live above Paris. Escaped animals are invading the city! But Ladybug, Ventus, Cat Noir and their new friend, Rena Rouge, are already on the spot.
Civilian: I'm sure they'll get the animals back in the zoo super fast.
Kim: Right, sir. They are the best! (groans) I wish I could be a superhero. The powers. The secrets. The costume. That would be awesome, right?
Ondine: (laughs) Yeah, sure.
Kim: How can I become one? You think there's some kind of superhero school, or something? Or maybe more like some super secret training facility?
(Ondine puts a piece of paper in her swimming bracelet.)
Ondine: You wanna know my secret?
Kim: Yeah, totally! I love this game. (Ondine throws her swimming bracelet into the pool. Kim dives in to fetch it, then reads its paper) "I have a serious crush on this boy, but he has no idea." (Ondine blushes. Kim laughs.) That boy's clueless. (gets out of the pool) Okay, now it's my turn.
(Kim throws the swimming bracelet into the pool. Ondine dives in after it.)
Ondine: (reads paper) "I can stick my big toe inside my ear"...?
(Kim demonstrates. Ondine laughs. Kim gives her the notebook and pen with his feet.)
Ondine: (to herself) Let's stop beating about the bush.
(Ondine notes something down and throws the bracelet into the pool. Kim dives in, retrieves it, and starts to unfold the paper, but then his watch alarm goes off.)
Kim: Ah! The movie! I totally forgot! (gets out of the pool)
Ondine: But we haven't finished yet!
Kim: I've really gotta split. I asked Chloé to come, remember? The girl I told you about in my class? Next time, I promise!
(Kim leaves. Ondine reaches out toward him, then picks up the paper and opens it, revealing a heart with Kim's name on it, and "Je t'aime" written below, with more hearts.)
Ondine: (sadly, to herself) The boy I'm crushing on is...you.
Hawk Moth: Poor Little Mermaid. How many times have you tried to tell your Prince how you feel? And how many times has he dismissed you? (charges an akuma with dark energy) Fly away, my little akuma, and evilize her!
(The akuma flies into Paris.)
Cat Noir is being chased by two black panthers.
Cat Noir: Come on, guys, you wouldn't eat one of your cousins, would ya?
(Rena Rouge and Ventus jumps along roofs to a vantage point above the street.)
Rena Rouge: (plays flute) Mirage! (throws energy ball)
(Large cuts of meat appear on the street in front of the panthers.)
Cat Noir: How about some tasty chops, instead? (leaps away with his staff)
(One of the panthers steps on a piece of meat, causing it to disappear. It and the other panther step on more of them, following a trail of vanishing meat until it leads them into the back of a van. Ladybug shuts the van doors, trapping the panthers inside. Civilians cheer Ladybug, Ventus, Cat Noir and Rena Rouge standing on the edge of a roof.)
Cat Noir: (holds up fist) Pound i— (looks back at Ladybug and Rena Rouge running away) Hey, where're you going?
Ladybug: Rena's about to transform back.
Ventus: First time missing our signature hand Shake
Cat Noir: So you're allowed to know her true identity, but I'm not?
