In the Collège Françoise Dupont courtyard, Adrien Agreste's photographer Vincent sets up his camera and says, "Alright, everybody, look at the camera. Hahahaha, they're pristine! Now, say spaghetti!"


Ms. Mendeleiev's class replies in unison, "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!" "Spaghetti!"


Vincent's camera takes a picture of Ms. Mendeleiev's class.


Off to the side, Chloe is watching the whole thing and is wondering to herself why Vincent is always referring to spaghetti in photoshoots and picture days.


Marinette says to Alya, "Yeah, I'm gonna be honest; Vincent is quite the case, but even he doesn't deserve to be hated on just because of his obsessive love for Italian food references."


Alya replies before asking, "Right, because even outside of food references, Vincent is a patriot in his own right. Um, would it be acceptable for an Italian food night tomorrow night?"


Marinette snorts before answering, "I'd have to ask my parents first, and so would you."


Alya replies back, "Good point."


Marinette then goes to Chloe, who hugs her upon making eye contact with each other.


Marinette then says, "Chloe, just because Vincent is obsessed with referencing Italian food doesn't mean you should be hating on him."


Chloe sneers as she replies, "I liked you better when you voiced your problems."


Marinette says as Tillyan gives the signal, "Look, just because we have the freedom to speak our minds about the problems of the original timeline doesn't mean we should take it out on anyone and everyone who acts like their canon counterparts."


Because Marinette gave herself the power of a persuasive voice, Chloe sighs as she replies back, "Okay, you got a good point."


Marinette and Chloe then go back to Alya, Adrien, and Nino, and Nino asks, "Everything good, girls?"


Marinette nods while giving a thumbs up gesture.


Marinette's attention is drawn to Juleka as she says to Rose while speaking a bit loud enough for Rose and anyone approaching to hear, "At least Chloe was there for me in making sure that I was in the photos over the years. I can't thank her enough for it."


Rose replies, "Yes, and I also can't thank Ladybug enough for curing my illness, Jules."
