Miraculous Ladybug Season 1 Episode 6 Mr. Pigeon
Mr. Damocles is in Miss Bustier’s class and tells the students about the design competition that is being held at the school. The goal of the competition is to design and create a derby hat, which will be judged by fashion designer Gabriel Agreste. The winner of the competition will have their design worn by Adrien at his next photo shoot.
Flipping through her design journal, Marinette looks for a derby hat only to discover she’s never made one. Alya watches Marinette walk across the courtyard and slowly grows more tense. She states that she made silk ram hats, bell hats, berets and sombreros, but never a derby hat. As Marinette worries, she develops a worst-case scenario where she trips over her hat, knocks over Mr. Agreste, earns the hatred of Adrien, and loses her dream of becoming the world’s top fashion designer. Marinette dramatically cries into Alya’s lap before Alya cheers her up and asks to look in Marinette’s sketchbook.
Alya put her sketchbook down on the bench and turned away from Marinette as Marinette brought her knees to her chest. Seeing the open book, Adrien glances at the pages and compliments Alya on her drawings. Alya corrects him and tells him that it was actually Marinette hiding behind the bench. Adrien congratulates her on her designs and tells her that he thinks she has a good chance of winning the competition. This compliment gives Marinette the confidence she needs to create her design and she runs away.
At the same time, Chloé and Sabrina overhear what Adrien says to Marinette. This bothers Chloé, so she decides to have Sabrina steal designs from Marinette’s sketchbook.
In his lair, Hawkmoth wonders who is tasked with stealing the Miraculouses Ladybug and Cat Noir, claiming that they must be his.
Marinette is sitting outside at the Trocadéro with an open sketchbook on her lap. He sketches different versions of the derby hats before tearing them out and crumpling them next to each other. As he grows more despondent, a man appears, waving his arms like wings and growling at the pigeons. Xavier Ramier sits on a bench and calls the pigeons to him with a whistle. He then pulls out a bag of bird food and throws it to the pigeons.
Roger Raincomprix approaches and yells at Xavier for feeding the pigeons, declaring that if he continues to feed them, he will fill the park and leave his droppings everywhere. Roger confiscates the bird feed and kicks Xavier out of the park. Marinette feels sorry for him. Tikki gave her the idea to make a hat based on pigeon feathers. Inspired, Marinette hastily sketches an idea.
Meanwhile, Xavier sits dejectedly on a bench overlooking the Seine. Sensing Xavier’s sadness, Hawk Moth sends an akuma to him that enters his bird call. Hawk Moth tells Xavier that the police and park rangers shouldn’t stop him from taking care of his pigeons and offers him a chance to get revenge on them. Xavier grimaces and transforms into the villain Mr. Pigeon. He takes off, waving his arms and cooing.
At the same time, Marinette finishes her sketch. Holding the book up to admire it in the light, Sabrina takes a photo of the sketch with her phone and hands it to Chloé. Sabrina asks Chloé when she will design the hat, but Chloé says that her father, Mayor André Bourgeois, will pay someone to make it.
Marinette returns to her house and makes a hat in her room. Tikki helps her, giving Marinette an apple to replenish her energy. At 1:21 PM, Marinette freaks out when she realizes she forgot to grab the feather from her hat. She and Tikki run back to the Eiffel Tower and disrupt the pigeons until Marinette grabs a feather. Delighted to have one, she jumps out and runs into Officer Roger before returning home. However, Roger continues on his merry way after Marinette apologizes and leaves. A dark cloud of birds hovers above him and carries him away.
While on the bus, Marinette asks the driver why they can’t go faster. The driver says they have a situation and tells people to get off the bus. Marinette sees the pigeons causing the traffic jam along with other problems all over Paris.
Nadja Chamack is reporting on the pigeons on a nearby screen and is told that Mr. Pigeon will announce: Paris belongs to the pigeons. Marinette runs to the subway and wastes no time transforming into Ladybug.
Ladybug runs across the rooftops of Paris until she sees hordes of pigeons flying in the sky, all shaped like airplanes. At that moment, Cat Noir appears, lounging on the roof. He sneezes and rolls down to Ladybug. His allergy to feathers is to blame. Cat Noir tells Ladybug that park rangers are disappearing all over Paris. Ladybug says she has to find Mr. Pigeon. Cat Noir asks where, and while Ladybug doesn’t know where they can find him, she knows where he can find them.
They go to the Place des Vosges and have Cat Noir posing as a park ranger and keeping an eye on Mr. Pigeon. He whistles the French national anthem and begins to dance. Ladybug tells him to act natural or Mr. Pigeon will never show up. Cat Noir replies that he’s acting natural, still dancing. A pigeon spots him and flies off to report to Mr. Pigeon. Mr. Pigeon praises the pigeon for telling him. A flock of pigeons takes Mr. Pigeon away.
Ladybug wonders where Mr. Pigeon is. Suddenly, Cat Noir sneezes and is carried away by a flock of pigeons. A ladybug follows a cloud to the ceiling of Le Grand Paris Hotel. Cat Noir sneezes again, now free, and sees the pigeons following him. Suddenly, Mr. Pigeon appears, standing on top of a flock of pigeons. He blows the bird whistle and the pigeons surround Ladybug and Cat Noir and trap them in a massive birdcage.
Mr. Pigeon, under the command of Hawk Moth, tells Ladybug and Cat Noir to give up their Miraculouses or the pigeons will attack them with poop. Cat Noir uses his Cataclysm, making the metal bars of the cage rust. The cage crumbles and they are freed. As soon as he gets close to Mr. Pigeon, he escapes by leaving the hotel shouting, “Merry Christmas.” He sends the remaining pigeons to attack the two heroes.
Ladybug and Cat Noir run in and slam the door on the pigeons. They go down, but Cat Noir’s ring beeps; he has 4 minutes left before his transformation deactivates. They head downstairs and find Mayor André Bourgeois. He tells them that if the pigeons continue to invade Paris, all the tourists will leave and he will lose his money. He asks them to stop the pigeons, which Ladybug and Cat Noir agree to.
