Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir

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.

Because I have a secret.

Thanks for showing up!

So, check this out. I've got the biggest scoop!

But FYI, it's seriously hush hush. Top secret. Classified information.

-You know who Ladybug is? -No. But it's almost as hot.

Marinette is...

Wait. Do you think this is such a good idea?

I don't think it is. I know it is!

But remember, girls, your lips are sealed. Got it?

Well, Marinette is head over heels for somebody!

Yeah. Adrien!

-What? But how did you know? -Well, it is pretty obvious!

So do you think... I mean... Adrien knows too?

No way. Boys never pick up on things like that.

Right. Let's get down to business.

Your mission, is to arrange a ridiculously romantic date

- between Marinette and Adrien. - Oh, that's so sweet!

- Great! - Big time!

We know we can always count on you, so you can count on us, too!

- Aw, thanks, girls! - You're up, Marinette!

Alya and I have come up with a plan. It's called "Operation Secret Garden"!

Excuse me, but why do we need a plan?

Can't Marinette just ask Adrien out?

Seriously? This is Marinette we're talking about here!

Now, each of you will have a code name based on a flower.

Alix you'll be "Violet", Mylène, you'll be "Sunflower",

Juleka, you'll be "Rose", and Rose will be "Tulip."

- Uh... Why isn't my name "Rose?" - Because "Rose" is your real name!

It won't be a code name if we call you "Rose!"

This afternoon, "Buttercup" has a photo shoot at the Trocadéro fountains.

- Adrien! - Ah!

His security guard, aka "The Nanny", will be waiting for him in the car.

He's supposed to take Buttercup home, except that's not gonna happen!

This is where you guys come in!

Step one, Rose will have a fake no-parking sign. She'll go over to...

- Who's Rose again? - Me, of course!

No, Rose, it's Juleka! You're Tulip! Violet, Sunflower, Rose, Tulip!

So, step one...

Rose, you put the sign next to The Nanny's chariot.

Step two. Sunflower, you'll go and find a police officer

and say to him, "Hello, Mr Police Officer!

That car's parked illegally!"

"You don't say! I'll enforce the law this second!

Thank you, young lady!"

Oh! Grr!

Step three. No more Nanny! Step four. Tigerlily will let us know

as soon as Buttercup's done.

Tigerlily.

But instead of meeting back up with The Nanny, Adrien's going to find...

Lotus!

That's Marinette!

But when Buttercup sees the chariot's gone,

he'll text his Nanny, won't he?

Impossible. Buttercup always leaves his personal items in the car,

even his phone.

Such a professional!

She knows everything about Adrien. Creepy, no?

Yeah! It's so romantic!

So, then...

"Hey, Marinette."

"What are you doing here? What a incredible, crazy, coincidence!"

Now Tulip will give the signal to the rickshaw driver

to come and park in the car spot. Then all I need to do is say to Adrien...

Blblblblblblblb!

You're right. That's usually how it goes.

But this time, I'm really ready.

I've got you guys with me. I'll do it, I promise!

- You'll be great. - Yeah!

So I say to him, "Since your car's not here, let's ride home together.

Look, there's a rickshaw, right here!"

"Awesome idea, Marinette. I've always dreamed of going on a rickshaw with you!"

We take a really romantic ride along the Seine

and over the Pont des Arts bridge, where we run into André,

the sweethearts' ice-cream maker!

Then Violet skates by and showers us with rose petals!

It's gonna be perfect.

It's... it's... so beautiful!

Any questions?

- Which flower am I, again? - You're Rose.

- That's right, right? - Mmm-hmm.

- Yes! - Operation Secret Garden, here we come!

Come on, more happy! The smile like you're smelling a delicious lunch in the kitchen!

Ah! No, no! We need...

A lollipop!

There!

Lollipop! Lollipop!

Now we have good taste! Mmm-hmm!

Lollipop! Lollipop!

No, August! Lollipops are not for babies! Your snack is a delicious bottle of milk!

Are all the flowers planted?

Rose planted!

Sunflower planted!

Tulip planted!

Perfect! Go, Rose!

- Uh... Me? - No, the other Rose!

Hmm...

Huh?

- Um, you guys, I've got a problem. - Rose?

- Yeah? What? - It's stuck in the grate.

- Rose! Louder! - Yeah? What?

Oh! Shh!

Ugh!

Uh-oh!

- What's this fake sign made of? - Metal, like road signs are made of. Why?

Couldn't you have made it out of cardboard or something?

Go and get the police officer!

Caution! Buttercup's photo shoot will be over soon!

Ah, seriously? Enough with the chitchat.

I know you! You're in class with my daughter!

Hello, sir... I just wanted to tell you something...

Huh? Tell me about it! These pigeons are such a nuisance!

- Huh? - Come on, Rose, do it now!

OK!

- Not you, Tulip! The other Rose! - No, wait!

Come on, Rose, you can do it!

- Illegally parked car! - Hmm?

Yes!

Oh!

Thank you, young lady!

Great job, Rose!

No! Look at me! Give me your best smile!

Lollipop! Lollipop!

No, August, Mummy told you already. You're too young for lollipops!

That poor lady. She could really use a hand!

If you do that, Adrien will see you!

Oh, here we go, honey.

Sir! Move this vehicle right away. This is a no-parking zone!

Grr!

Move it, move it, move it!

- Hey, watch it! - He's right, be careful!

U-turn, please!

Mmm-hmm.

Bravo, girls! Step two, commence!

Eh?

Grr! Grr!

Seating! Perfect! Hold it right there!

Lotus! Uh... Marinette! Stay here!

Hello, ma'am! Hello, little baby!

Thank you so much!

All right, have a good day!

Look out! Buttercup's on the move!

Sorry!

- Here you go. - Thank you!

You're welcome! Bye!

Red alert! The Nanny's back!

- Um... - Yes?

Hey, you, Mister! Over there! You've asked for it!

Here are fines for a parking violation, non-compliance with orders

and for infuriating a usually cheerful police officer!
