The newly named Monarch declares his rule over Paris, in a similar fashion to “Stoneheart”, but this time through the illusion of a news retriever surrounded by a Shell-ter. He says he will continue to attack Paris relentlessly unless they bring him the Miraculouses of Ladybug and Cat Noir. Nadja reports this, saying that despite the Monarch’s threats, the citizens of Paris still support the two heroes and throw stones at the news retriever; The Monarch has won the battle, but the Miraculous war is just beginning.

Cat Noir destroys the Shell-ter containing the message retriever illusion with a single blow of his staff, and Ladybug dispels the illusion with her yo-yo. As the crowd continues to cheer for the heroes, Ladybug thanks Cat Noir, who replies that “it’s you and me”.
Meanwhile, in his repository, Gabriel stands before Emilia and tells her that his victory is almost complete, while Ladybug assures the people of Paris that the Monarch’s victory never warns him of the high price he must pay for such a thing, but Gabriel silences Sass. , much like he did in “Sandboy” for Nooroo. While Ladybug and Cat Noir on the other hand tell the citizens that they will never be silenced or captured by the Monarch. Gabriel accordingly threatens and insults the frightened kwamis, regarding them as his slaves.

A hesitant Nathalie tries to slow him down, but Gabriel interrupts the call and unites Butterfly and Rabbit Miraculous to transform into Monarch.
As Ladybug tries to figure out how Monarch stole all of the Miraculous, she is immediately interrupted by the Lair opening up behind her and Cat Noir, from which Rabbit Noir and her chase Monarch a few minutes into the future, who seemingly grows weaker and fuses several . Miraculous at once; all three exit through another Lair. Confused, Ladybug and Cat Noir are greeted by another Burrow, from which an adult Bunnyx emerges and explains the situation to the pair. Meanwhile, Monarch plans to travel back to a time when Ladybug and Cat Noir were vulnerable and weak. She enters the Burrow portal and returns to the events of “Lady Wifi”; specifically the scene where Lady Wifi has Ladybug pinned to the wall. Monarch enters the scene, steals Lady Wifi’s phone, suspends her with his powers, and prepares to steal Ladybug’s Miraculous. Meanwhile, Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Bunnyx enter Borrow and notice that Monarch is creating an alternate timeline by altering the events of “Lady Wifi”. Bunnyx rewinds time a few seconds and removes the Monarch from the timeline; Ladybug captures Monarch with her yo-yo. In disbelief, Monarch asks how they could stop him when he has the Rabbit Miraculous, to which Bunnyx replies that the Burrow can be accessed by any Rabbit Miraculous holder no matter what era they are from. Ladybug uses her yo-yo again to catch the Monarch, but he opens his staff and takes all the Kwami and prepares for battle.
It unites the Miraculous of Butterfly, Rabbit, Bee, Fox and Turtle; it gets weaker. Ladybug tries to grab him, but he uses his power to throw her off once she’s free. Using Mirage, he creates clones of himself to distract the heroes as he paralyzes Bunnyx with Venom. Using the Shell-ter, he tries to steal her version of the Rabbit Miraculous, but thanks to the heroes, this is prevented. As Monarch weakens, Ladybug lassos him again, but he fuses with Dragon Miraculous and uses Wind Dragon to escape through the portal to the events of “Riposte”. Needing to match him, Cat Noir throws the Rabbit Miraculous to the Ladybug to use since rabbits are the only ones that can open portals. However, realizing his earlier mistake, he gives the gem to Cat Noir, asking Ladybug if she’s okay with it, and the heroine replies that they are a team. Activating Rabbit Miraculous will merge with Cat Miraculous and transform into Rabbit Noir. Rabbit Noir, following Monarch’s trail, calls him a coward because he tried to ambush them in the past. The pair track and fight the Monarch through countless time portals until they end up in 1940s France. Seeing the mastermind fail to use his powers, Ladybug demands the gems back, but Monarch uses Dog Miraculous to mark the rabbit watch before the aftershocks of his multiple connection worsen and Ladybug warns Monarch of the danger.

Ladybug realizes the situation, but Rabbit Noir remains confident and calm, making sure to catch him, but also knowing that they can’t follow the Monarch throughout the timeline, he calls on his lucky charm to receive the Mini Miracle Box, causing the duo to that remember Heroes Day, but the heroine didn’t know how to use it now until Rabbit Noir calms her down when she sees Master Fu’s phonograph and knows what to do. Meanwhile, Monarch steps out of the portal onto a moving car and notices Ladybug and Cat Noir inside, but falls. However, seeing the heroes in their state, he realizes that he has reverted to Reserver’s akumatization and thinks he will have an easier time with their gems until he receives another painful shock.
