Nadja on the TV:tonight, the Grand Palais hosts the most eagerly awaited event of the year! The sensational fashion show of the famous designer Emilie Agreste! And a major event always brings prestigious guests: Mayor of Paris, André Bourgeois, is expected to attend the show with his wife, the great and highly respected fashion queen. Marinette is holding her hat. Nooroo:it's perfect the way it is, Master! Marinette:I don't know, Nooroo...I feel like it's the ugliest hat in the world and Adrien is supposed to model it in front of everyone. He'll resent me for the rest of his life. I have zero talent. And everyone's gonna find that out tonight. Marinette slightly glares at her Kwami. Nooroo:well, um, you're a great designer, Marinette. Besides, if your hat was so ugly, why did Emilie Agreste hand-pick it for her fashion show? Marinette:well, people see that it's a synthetic pigeon feather and not a real one. They're gonna think it's lame, aren't they?
Nooroo:you did the right thing with replacing it. With that allergy of his, Adrien would be sneezing all the way down the catwalk. Marinette:you're right. Besides, I don't have time to make changes anyway. The show begins in... She looks at her phone, gasps and quickly puts the hat in a box. Marinette:oh no! I'm gonna be late! Quick, Nooroo! Marinette holds her purse open and Nooroo quickly flies in.
Marinette runs towards the Grand Palais with the hat-box. A car pulls up and Nadja is talking. Marinette looks from a distance. Nadja:this is it! Here she comes! The international queen of fashion, director of "Style Queen" magazine, Audrey Bourgeois! André Bourgeois, opens the door and Audrey Bourgeois gets out of the car followed by Chloe. A group of photographers is taking pictures.
Audrey:Anthony..........uh...André, be a dear and fire the chauffeur. I can't believe Emilie allows her staff to drive like that! From the driver's seat, the Gorilla grumbles. Chloe groans. André:yes, of course, Audrey, dear. Marinette:oh no! It's Audrey Bourgeois! Nooroo:um, who? Marinette:only the harshest fashion critic in the entire world. I didn't know she was coming! Audrey walks towards the red carpet. Audrey:what is this carpet? Is it fabric? Why isn't the red carpet made out of marble like I said! She looks at Roger. Audrey:you're fired! Roger looks indignant. Audrey:ridiculous, utterly ridiculous. The Bourgeois walk down the red carpet. Chloe:sorry about my mom! Marinette:she's gonna hate my hat for sure! Nooroo:I'm sure she won't. Come on Marinette, Adrien is waiting for you. Marinette starts walking forward again.
