So in the locker room. (Mylene) What do we do about Marinette? (Alix) Yeah why is she avoiding all of us? (Rose) Did we do something wrong? (Alya) I think this has something to do with Chloe and that secret. (Everyone) What? (Alya) A little before Mari started avoiding all of us Chloe said she knew some secret of Mari’s. (Adrien) Oh yeah..... (Alix) But don’t we all know Mari’s “secret” (Alya) No not that one something else and whatever it is it’s real important cause Mari’s doing whatever Chloe says. *Mari walks into locker room.

(Chloe) I have no idea what your talking about! (Mari) Ugh! Of all people to find out it had to be you! *bends down and ties the other end of the hoodie rope to the bottom of the bench* I need something to keep it tied! (Chloe) What about one of those stupid hair ties in ur hair those can tie around! (Mari) Actually that’s a really smart idea Chloe! (Chloe) why do u act so surprise?! (Mari) *Takes hair ties out* because it’s not often that you have a good idea! (Chloe) *Glares at mari* I’ll have you know I have many good ideas!

Mari tries to catch the rope but it falls apart. (Mari) Dang it! *sighs trying to calm down* Okay I’ll go ahead and try and find another vent in the school when I do I’ll come back to get you guys! (Chloe) Well hurry it up! (Mari) Relax Chloe! *Mari crawls away. (Adrien) *Thinking* Wow who knew Mari was such a good strategizer I mean I knew she was smart and good at it but she’s like a master just like...ladybug could she be- no I’ve seen her with her... right? (Alya) Chloe! (Chloe) What? (Alya) Whats the secret you know of Mari’s? (Chloe) Can’t tell you! (Alya) Why not? (Chloe) Cause I made a deal with Mari! (Alya) yeah that she has to be your slave! (Chloe) Shes agreed to it tho so! (Alya) Well I’m sure she’d much prefer you just telling her! (Chloe) No she wouldn’t! (Alya) Yes she would! (Chloe) No she really wouldn’t!

(Everyone) Right! *They all head towards the door but Mari heads to the back of the room and grabs the hoodies. (Alya) Girl c’mon! (Mari) Coming! *They all run to the rooftop. (Chloe) So what now? (Mari) We have to stay up here until ladybug and chat noir fix whatever’s going on! (Chloe) But your trapped here with us! (Alya) What do you mean by that? (Mari) Chloe!!!!! (Chloe) Don’t yell at me!

Kim? (Kim) Whats up? (Mari) How long can you hold your breath? (Kim) 10 minutes! *Ik he can probably hold his breath longer since he’s a swimmer but I need that time for this right now. (Mari) Well Max? How long do you think it would take for one of us to get from here to the basement? (Max) I’d say 15 minutes if they run at full speed. (Mari) *thinking* that’s not enough time! *Says* How long do you think it would take Alix to get there on her skates! (Max) I’d say about 8 minutes! (Mari) Well Alix are you able to hold your breath for that long? (Alix) *Shakes head no* I can only hold my breath for like 4 minutes! (Mari) *Thinking* None of this matches up... *realization* wait that’s it!!! (Everyone) What is? (Mari) Well if my understanding of the gas is correct you act exactly how you were before. So if Alix could skate her way to the room holding her breath she’ll do the same on the way back and- (Adrien) Kim can get the mask and go with her! (Mari) Exactly… so Kim? Alix? Think your up for the challenge! (Kim) I’m always up for a challenge! (Alix) Took the words right out of my mouth. (Mari) Here! *Hands Alix something* (Alix) Whats this? (Mari) A map of the school.

(Kim) your plan worked and I got the mask. (Mari) Great! *Alix about to head back. (Nath) Wait Alix where you going? *Alix doesn’t say anything and keeps skating until Mari closes the door. (Mari) Sorry to do this to you Alix *jumps Alix and ties her to a pole* (Alix) *struggles to break free* (Mari) Sorry Alix but I can’t have you skating around the school. Something could happen to you. (Alya) So that’s what you were doing with the hoodie rope! (Mari) Mhm! Everybody grab a mask! (Chloe) mmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
