Miraculous Ladybug Season 1 Episode 24 Volpina
At the Agreste mansion, Adrien rushes down the stairs to the lobby, stopping on his way out when he hears his father Gabriel in the studio to his right. Gabriel is on the phone negotiating with a supplier about a new line of clothing and a fashion show in three days. As he roars, he picks up the book and places it in a safe hidden behind a painting of Emilia Agreste. After Gabriel leaves, Adrien, confused by the existence of a hidden safe, sneaks into the room and walks over to the portrait. Plagg challenges Adrien to open the safe, but Adrien hesitates, saying that his dad wouldn’t want him going through his stuff, he doesn’t know the passcode, and he’ll be late for his fencing class.
Angry at Adrien, Plagg goes through the safe and opens it. Inside is a photo of Emilia Agreste, a book about Tibet, a leaflet for a Tibetan hotel, the Peacock Miraculous (which she ignores) and a “really dusty old book”. Plagg tosses the book into Adrien’s hands, who then starts flipping through it, stopping at a page that shows a costumed man who looks similar to Hawk Moth.
Hearing footsteps, Adrien slammed the safe shut and closed the portrait, hiding the book in his school bag. Nathalie walks in with Adrien’s bodyguard watching him and tells Adrien that he will be late. Adrien pretends to be looking for his homework, looking embarrassed the whole time.
Meanwhile, Marinette and Alya walk into their school and hear their classmates Rose, Chloé and Nino discussing the various achievements of a girl named Lila. Marinette asks Alya who Lila is and learns that she is a new student from Italy. When Alya points up, Marinette sees Lila stroking a nervous Adrien. Ignoring Marinette’s expressions, Alya explains that Lila gave her an interview for Ladyblog in which Lila describes how Ladybug saved her. Alya runs into Marinette and gets her attention to watch the video.
This doesn’t help Marinette, who keeps asking who Lila is. Alya replies that she’s had an incredible life and is absolutely amazing. Marinette then begins to freak out, imagining Lila and Adrien flirting shamelessly, developing a romantic relationship, traveling to Hollywood, and Adrien completely forgetting about Marinette. Snapping out of her imagination, Marinette sees Adrien being dragged by Lila into the library. Marinette tries to get Alya to go with her to keep them apart, but Alya dismisses Marinette’s concerns, focusing more on the views on Ladyblog, which exploded due to Lila’s video.
Confused, Marinette thinks Lila has somehow hypnotized everyone at school. Tikki accuses Marinette of being jealous, which she denies. After a moment of hesitation, he follows Adrien and Lila. In the library, hidden behind a bookshelf, Marinette finds only a bored Adrien tapping his fingers on the table, Lila nowhere to be found. Adrien then pulls out the book he obtained earlier from his bag. Tikki suddenly notices this and says she needs to see the book up close. Marinette tells Tikki to hide, but instead Tikki flies into the library across from Marinette and hides upstairs.
Just then, Lila returns with her Histoire textbook, saying that she and Adrien can study together. Adrien hastily covers his book with his math book, but as he moves the math book, Lila notices the book underneath and pulls it away from Adrien, asking him what it is. He replies that they are just superhero stories. Lila places her hand on Adrien’s and tells Adrien that she loves superheroes. Marinette flinches and freaks out, thinking it’s too late for her, and clumsily crashes into the book cart.
Meanwhile, Tikki looks down at the open pages that Lila is flipping through. When Lila stops at the Ladybug page, Adrien sighs and says, “She’s amazing,” which annoys Lila. Lila got up in her chair and stood right next to Adrien and told him that a girl didn’t need to wear a costume to be awesome. Lila questions Adrien about his crush on Ladybug, which he tries to deny by stuttering. Meanwhile, Marinette gets closer to the two by hiding behind a book cart and moving it. Lila then lies to Adrien and says that she is friends with Ladybug and suggests that they meet at the park after school where she can tell him more about it. Angry at Lily’s lie, Marinette growls and stands up leaning on the cart, causing it to slide away and Marinette to fall. The cart crashes into a wall and overturns, scattering books and disturbing Lila and Adrien. Marinette hides under the table.
Before Adrien can investigate the sudden noise, his phone alarm goes off telling him he only has one minute before the fencing lesson starts. Adrien hastily grabs his books and starts putting them away, Lila following. As Adrien puts his bag on his shoulder, Lila startles him, causing him to drop his bag and spill all his books. Lila interrupts him for a moment, confirming their meeting later in the park as she places her foot on Adrien’s book and removes it from his bag. Adrien hastily agrees to meet up as Lila hands him his bag.
