[chimes]
[pleasant music playing]
[Ladybug] You can stop
transforming back.
[Cat Noir]
There's always room to evolve.
[Ladybug] Each one of you has
already accomplished so much.
Together,
we've foiled so many threats.
[Cat Noir] You'll be able to
resist the temptation of evil.
[Ladybug] I entrusted you
with your Miraculous
because I know you're good people.
- [chimes]
- Yeah!
- You're heroes.
- [all] Pound it!
It'd be cool to have
a group name, don't you think?
- The Invincibles?
- The Heroes of Paris!
- The Best!
- The Unstoppables!
- The Smart Tribe.
- The Flamboyant Ones.
The Miraculers.
[gasps and agreement]
[all] The Miraculers!
In the daytime, I'm Marinette,
just a normal girl with a normal life,
but there's something about me
that no one knows yet
'cause I've got a secret.
Miraculous
Simply the best! ♪
Up to the test
When things go wrong ♪
Miraculous, the luckiest ♪
The power of love ♪
Always so strong ♪
Miraculous ♪
Miraculous! ♪
[Alya] Now these heroes who
call themselves the Miraculers
help us even when the problem
isn't caused
by an Akumatized villain.
Thank you, Miraculers,
and for more super-heroic news,
stay connected!
- This is amazing, Alya!
- Yeah, but anyone can do that.
I wanna put some
real journalism out there.
Tell people how hard it is
to be a real superhero,
how hard we had to train
in order to evolve
to stop transforming back.
I want to explain how you
enhanced our Miraculous
when you redesigned the jewels,
but all I get to do
is tell a fraction of what I know.
People might figure out
you're a superhero if you didn't.
I know, but you know me.
I'd love to be able to tell
the truth, the whole truth.
Do you wish I hadn't given you
that Miraculous?
Are you kidding?
I love being a superhero!
I would have been so mad at you
if you hadn't picked me.
- You never would have found out.
- Impossible.
I'm a lie detector in the flesh.
[laughter]
- Thanks, Andre.
- With pleasure, kiddo!
- Adrian Agreste, my condolences.
- Thank you.
- Your father truly was a great man.
- Thank you.
I hope I'll see you
on the big screen one day.
Thank you,
but I don't want to be an actor.
Not an actor or a model or famous.
- [Nino] You okay, buddy?
- Yes, yeah.
People are nice, but sometimes
I just wish I had a simple life
where everyone didn't stare at me,
where everyone didn't know
everything going on in my life.
[intriguing music playing]
[together] Hey, girls.
[comical music playing]
You see?
These cones are just like me.
They immediately start melting
when they're around you.
[girl] You can have mine!
Come on, it'd be my pleasure.
You two are so cute,
Adrien Agreste
and Marinette Dupain-Cheng,
I love you two!
- Uh, thank you.
- No, thank you for existing!
Scoop: Marinette and Adrien,
the most famous couple in Paris.
Marinette and Adrien,
the couple that melts everyone's hearts.
[laughter]
[man] Is it true your daughter
is dating Adrien Agreste?
Sir, how dare you talk
about my daughter this way?
Hand me the phone, Sabine.
I'm warning you.
Say one word about my daughter and
[Marinette] What's going on?
Uh, nothing at all.
Everything's fine, sweetheart.
Mom, I heard you telling someone
not to talk about me.
- What were they saying?
- I'd rather not repeat it.
- Who was it?
- I don't know
what these people want,
but I'll find them and I'll
Tom, you don't know where
they are, much less who they are.
I don't understand. Why won't
you tell me what's going on?
[touching theme playing]
I'll close the shop.
You're bound to see it anyway.
We might as well watch
these videos together
so we can talk about it afterwards.
[Vincent] Wondering what
happened to Adrien Agreste,
son of the fashion designer
who saved Paris?
I know because no truth can be
kept from Vincent Secret.
This is what Adrien used to be,
a good-looking, rich,
and famous boy
with an attractive, rich,
and famous girlfriend,
a good-looking, rich,
and famous father,
but now that his hero
of a father is no longer here
to set a good example for him,
Adrien has become Adri-nothing!
Replaced by Chloe Bourgeois
in the hearts of fashion lovers.
The former celebrity teen
is now under the influence
of an apprentice designer.

Adrien has become Adri-nothing!
Under the influence
of an apprentice designer.

- Apprentice designer.

- Designer.
He's lying!
And it looks like he's not done.
- He just posted a new one.

Wondering who
Marinette Dupain-Cheng is?
I know because no truth can be
kept from Vincent Secret.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng is the
futureless daughter of a baker
who was lucky enough to end up
in the same classroom
as famous model
Adrien Agreste.
Following the disappearance
of Adrien's father,
Marinette Dupain-Cheng
took advantage of the boy's distress,
bewitching him in order
to control his future life.
Is she really after love
or the fashion empire
that Adrien Agreste inherited?
Will the Agreste empire
survive the baker daughter's attack?

Thank you to my sponsor,
Vanita Watches.
No way!
I can't believe
I had Marinette all wrong.
Come on, Plagg, how do you believe
this bunch of nonsense?
You're right, it'd be like camembert
suddenly tasting like croissants.
It makes no sense indeed. [sighs]
I've never seen anything
as dangerous as this video,
and this is coming
from the Kwami of Destruction!
[cell phone beeping]
[trilling]
Did you see
Vincent Secret's video?
Vincent Secret,
more like Vincent Lies.
I'm sorry for causing you
so much trouble, Marinette.
It's not your fault.
There has to be some misunderstanding.
We should just meet
with Vincent Secret guy
and explain that we genuinely
love each other,
and he'll realize
that he made a huge mistake,
that whatever information
he got is fake
and everything
will be back to normal.
- You're probably right.
- You two are so naive!
This dude's obviously doing it
on purpose!
That's impossible, Alya.
Why would he try to hurt us?
- We didn't do anything to him.
- We don't even know him.
He's not trying to hurt you.
He doesn't care if he does.
All he wants is to create buzz
for his channel.
No one could be this mean.
We'll go talk to him.
[spits]
What?
I sent him a message
and he agreed to meet with me.
- Alone?
- No, Adrien's coming with me.
Besides, you're the ones who taught me
to talk through my problems, aren't you?
We have good reason not to
trust this Vincent Secret character
and he's an adult,
you and Adrien are children.
You can't meet with him
on your own.
I'm coming with you
and I'm bringing my bread peel!
- [touching music playing]
- [soft chuckle]
[rock theme playing]
[Vincent] Wondering what's
the point of superheroes
Ladybug and Cat Noir?
- Marinette?
- [Vincent] I know,
because no truth can be kept
from Vincent Secret.
For a year, supervillain Monarch
spread terror in Paris,
and for a year,
Ladybug and Cat Noir tried to stop him.
Did they succeed?
If I hadn't lied to Adrien
and Alya and everyone,
he couldn't have made
this video.
Whether you lied or not,
this Vincent Secret
would have made up some other
fake stories to gossip about.
But thanks to the heroic sacrifice,
we are finally free from Monarch.
I couldn't tell Adrien the truth.
He would have been
completely ruined
if he found out that Monarch
was his own father.
Marinette, your mom is right.
There's no point in watching these videos.
Ladybug wasn't who defeated
supervillain Monarch.
It was thanks
to the fashion designer
Gabriel Agreste, and without
any superpowers either
except his ability
to design super sneakers.
[powers-down]
- What time is it?
- Almost 9.
Oh, no, Tikki! These videos made me
completely lose track of time!
So, complete strangers
are calling my parents' bakery
to say bad things about me.
These are innocent little phone pranks.
It's probably kids having fun.
I don't see how any of this
connects to Vincent Secret.
[Tom] Of course it's connected!
With the horrible things
you claim in your videos.
I said horrible things, really?
You sure did!
When you called Marinette
a futureless daughter
of bakers for one.
I don't see anything mean here.
You're still a teenager, aren't you?
Don't tell me you already know
what you want to do later.
Of course I do!
I want to design clothes
or jewels
- or furniture, but
- [Vincent] See?
You don't know exactly.
You also said that Marinette
had bewitched me.
[Vincent] It just means
you're under her spell.
Is that not true? You two seem
very much in love, aren't you?
- Uh, we are, but
- What about when you asked,
will the Agreste empire
survive the baker's daughter's attack?
Are you gonna tell me
that's not mean?
I'm not stating anything.
I'm just asking questions.
I stimulate people's intellect.
You want to blame me for that?
If they start imagining bad things,
it's not my fault.
Is this what you mean
by imagining?
Listen, I don't want there to be
any misunderstandings.
I seek the truth without filters.
How about you express yourself
to the audience?
Eye to eye?
You wanted to set the record straight,
didn't you?
[Marinette sighs]
[light thuds]
So, tell me,
how did you two really meet?
At first I thought,
I hate this guy
because I assumed
he was best friends with Chloe,
the girl who bullied me
at school.
And I didn't understand
why she didn't like me.
I thought Adrien had stuck gum
to my seat,
but he was actually trying
to peel off Chloe's gum.
- But it got better.
- Thanks to the umbrella.
- An umbrella?
- The day we met, it was raining.
I was waiting for the rain to stop.
- And I had an umbrella.
- I didn't want his umbrella.
I didn't know
how to get her to understand
that I wasn't
who she thought I was.
He told me
that he never had friends.
And this was my very
first time going to school.
It was all so new.
And you handed me the umbrella.
- You took it.
- And I fell in love.
And the umbrella closed
over your head!
[laughter]
That's when you two
became a couple?
Oh, no. No.
I thought I'd made a new friend.
And I thought there was no way he'd
ever fall in love with a girl like me.
A girl like you?
What do you mean by that?
I was clumsy, always stammering,
tripping over stuff.
He never knew
what I was going to do.
I don't know, how could you ever
fall in love with me?
It's because you're so unique.
- [Marinette sighs]
- [applause]
There! This is love!
True love! Pure love!
You two are so cute.
People are gonna love it.
[Vincent] Add a little
video filter, and boom!
- [sinister music playing]
- Perfect.
People are gonna love
hating the baker girl.
[indistinct chatter]
How can you still be with her
- after what she said about you?
- What are you talking about?
Well, she did say
that she hates you.
I never said such a thing.
How do you really feel
about Adrien?
I hate this guy!
- So, are you saying that's not you?
- It is me, but
So, you actually did say
such a thing.
This has to be taken out of context.
You need to stop
making excuses for her, Adrien.
It's obvious
she's manipulating you.
- I'm not.
- Come on, let's go.
It's so sad
that you two stay together
when you don't love
each other!
Wanna know why Adrien Agreste
and Marinette Dupain-Cheng
are together?
I know because no truth
can be kept from Vincent Secret.
I interviewed
Marinette Dupain-Cheng for you
and she revealed
all her secrets to me.
We already knew she was after
the Agreste empire,
but what we didn't know
was how she really felt about Adrien,
- and here's her answer.
- I hate this guy!
I think that's pretty clear, don't you?
She also explained how she deviously
managed to bewitch him.
He never knew
what I was gonna do.
And she exploited
poor Adrien's weaknesses.
He never had friends.
Good thing Vincent is here
to restore the truth
and come to poor Adrien's aid.
- If you like this, remember
- [click]
I totally warned you,
he's not a true journalist.
Journalists investigate,
they cross-reference evidence
and report on facts.
He is an influencer.
By definition,
he isn't there to inform people.
His goal is to influence them.
So there's nothing we could do
against this liar?
There is one thing
that can crush these lies.
The truth and the evidence
to go with it.
Trixx, let's pounce.
[heroic music playing]
Mirage!
It's my turn to make Vincent Secret talk.
But you can't use
your power like that.
Ladybug said that unless
it's an Akumatized villain,
we can help out.
[gasps]
If that's what Ladybug said
[Alya] Mirage!
Don't be bemused,
it's just the news.
[Alya] Whoa, you're Vincent Secret.
I'm a huge fan of your work.
- That's nice, thanks.
- Please wait.
I wanna be an influencer too.
Could you give me some tips?
I'm not an influencer.
I'm a journalist.
I'm also in a rush,
but I could give you
an autograph, I suppose.
Whoa, thanks!
Wait, I have a pen in my bag.
I can't believe how you
get people to open up to you.
As soon as I ask a question,
people beat around the bush
or evade answering.
You're so talented.
It's your natural charisma,
isn't it?
It plays a part, of course,
but that's not the only thing.
- Okay, so you want a tip, right?
- [chuckles softly]
When a journalist
asks a question,
they should know
the answer they wanna get.
It's called the angle of attack.
Well, I go even further.
I don't even need to ask.
[Alya] Oh, you're so good!
Take the story
about Adrien Agreste
and Marinette Dupain-Cheng,
for example.
- How did you get the info?
- What info?
That she only loves him
for her own self-interest.
Okay, you do need advice.
- You'll never succeed that way.
- What do you mean, that way?
Let me give you an example
and you'll see.
If I tell you two teens are in love
and super cute together,
- do you find the info interesting?
- Uh, not really.
Exactly, you don't care.
Zero drama means zero clicks.
Now listen carefully.
Here's some more info.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng
manipulating Adrien Agreste
is just the start.
What she really wants
is to become the wealthiest,
most powerful girl on Earth
so can manipulate absolutely
everyone on the planet!
Whoa, no way!
Of course no way,
but if the story sticks,
you get clicks.
Wow, you're such a good storyteller
I can almost believe it.
The only truth
is that the people are stupid.
All they want
are exciting stories
to make up for their boring lives,
whether they're true or not.
Wow! [giggles] Okay.
[Vincent] Make up
for their boring lives,
whether they're true or not.
Well, I say the truth
- makes for a great story.
- Mmm-hmm.
[trilling]
[rock theme playing]
Who really is famous
influencer Vincent Secret?
A promising young journalist
just unveiled the truth.
Vincent Secret unveils
a lot of secrets in his videos,
but he's never told you how
he manages to know so many secrets.
Good thing Alya's here
to inform you.
The only truth
is that people are stupid.
All they want
are exciting stories
to make up
for their boring lives.
- Whether they're true or not.
- What?
- How'd she do it?
- [chimes]
- [comical music playing]
- [cell phone buzzes]
No, no, no! Not my followers!
- We don't like liars here!
- [diners grumble]
- [Vincent whimpering]
- [diners gasp]
[sinister music playing]
[chimes]
[Chrysalis]
Hello, forgive my intrusion
but your emotion was so strong
it called out to me.
It sounded like a reputation
crumbling to bits,
like the humiliation of
witnessing your deepest secret
revealed to the entire world.
Do you know
what would be fitting?
Since people
like secrets so much,
how would you like to regain
the admiration you were robbed of?
By being able to access
everyone's true secrets.
I can give you that power.
Only if you agree, of course.
I'd be stupid to say no.
- And what should I call you?
- Revelator!
[diners gasp]
[screams]
[grunts]
Huh?
Dad! You eat your boogers!
And now everyone will know
that your dad does
what he forbids you to do!
Revelation!
[cackling]
[trilling]
From now on,
no one will have any secrets
from anyone!
[phone chiming]
[Revelator] A Paris cafe owner
eats his boogers.
Anyone want to frequent
his establishment now?
This is why the best-kept secrets
are ones you never share.
Truth always finds a way, Marinette.
Trixx, let's pounce!
Tikki, spots on!
We'll de-evilize him
and make him understand
he needs to stop lying.
[harrowing music playing]
[Revelator] Do you know
where I can find Alya Cesaire?
No, I don't know her.
Let's find out if you're lying.
[man gasps]
[Rena] Wanna know our secret,
Revelator?
We're about to de-Akumatize you.
Then you'll stop lying for success.
How about I uncover
your secrets instead?
[grunts]
- [whimpers]
- The scoop of the century is mine!
Ladybug's secret identity!
[Rena] I have a scoop too.
In your dreams!
[Cat Noir grunts]
[groans]
- Cataclysm!
- [Ladybug] Don't touch the ball!
If I destroy it, your secret
will be safe, M'Lady.
I'll take care of it.
Lucky charm!
[upbeat theme playing]
[groans]
[Chrysalis]
Great job, Revelator.
We're about to find out
the two ultimate secrets,
Ladybug and Cat Noir's secret identities.
[grunts]
You were right, M'Lady.
It's not safe.
My power
still lets me see the secrets.
Mirage!
[groans]
[suspenseful music playing]
[grunts]
No, Rena!
I couldn't tell Adrien
the truth.
He would have been ruined
if he found out that Monarch
was his own father.
[Rena gasps]
[dramatic music playing]
Um, she just discovered
your secret identity, huh?
But that's okay, your Miraculous
Ladybug will erase everything,
- Right, M'Lady?
- I hope so.
[ominous stinger]
[shudders]
Cover us, Cat Noir!
[grunting]
I thought we were no longer
keeping secrets from each other.
Mirage!
[Rena] Does Cat Noir know that
Gabriel Agreste was Monarch?
I don't know who Cat Noir is
beneath the mask.
What if he knows Adrien
and tells him the truth?
But why lie to Adrien?
Because the truth
is too harsh.
You don't get to decide
what Adrien should or shouldn't know.
Neither do I. Truth is essential
to someone's personal growth
and now that I know
I'm gonna have to lie,
and you know
I don't like lying!
That's why I didn't want to tell you.
[Cat Noir grunts]
Illusions! You two
are just fake superheroes!
[Rena] This is what being lied
to feels like, Revelator.
You lied to me too?
Only so we could take
Revelator by surprise.
No more evil-doing for you,
ultra-Kuma.
[rock theme playing]
Time to de-evilize!
Gotcha!
Bye bye, little butterfly.
Ah!
Maybe it was meant
to erase the secret
- Rena Rouge found out.
- That'd be nice.
Aren't you the one saying
the best-kept secrets
are the ones you never share?
Miraculous Ladybug!
[chimes]
- [gasps]
- [chuckles]
It didn't work.
You still know who Ladybug is?
Some secrets are heavier
than others
and I'm afraid I won't be able
to keep this one.
How come it didn't work,
M'Lady?
Nothing's broken.
Secrets aren't physical damage.
Ladybug's power can fix things,
not destroy them.
This time, to repair things,
we have to destroy them.
- But isn't that wrong?
- [Rena] No.
Because it's meant
to give people the ability
to choose whether
to share their secret or not,
and that's repairing things.
- [sad music playing]
- [soft shudders]
You're a good person, kitty.
Trust yourself.
But how do I do it?
Remember,
there's always room to evolve.
Cataclysm.
[dramatic music playing]
[music grows suspenseful]
Miraculous Cat Noir!
Did it work?
Did what work?
[gasps]
Well done, Cat Noir.
- Did I miss something?
- Only a part of it.
People should be free
to have secrets
and share them
with whomever they want
whenever they want
if they want to.
Then what am I supposed to do,
huh? Secrets are my thing.
Try telling the truth
for a change.
And stop spreading lies
about people's private lives.
The only time it's okay
to reveal people's secrets
is when someone is in danger.
[sinister music playing]
[Lila] I too have secrets.
Everyone has secrets.
So do you.
You too have lied, Ladybug.
[laughter]
[touching music playing]
You know you can tell me
if something's wrong.
I know. Everything's fine.
May I remind you that I am a personal
lie detector? It's flashing red.
I know you can't stand secrets
and lies, Alya, but
I don't want you to hate me.
Me? Hate you?
I hope you're kidding.
There's one truth I know about you,
you have a big heart,
and I know
that whatever you do,
you do it for people's own good.
Sure, you may make mistakes
sometimes,
we all do,
but you always put them right.
So, don't think of it as a lie
or a secret,
just something
that's hard to tell.
[Nino] Are you coming
in the water or what?
Whenever you're ready
to take the plunge,
I'll be there for you.
[soft laugh]
[touching music playing]
[laughter]
[Alya] Why would I hate you,
Marinette?
Right? You'd never?
Her burden
is probably too heavy, Trixx.
I have to figure out
how to help her.
