Episode Title:
Derision
Episode Description:
Marinette and Adrien go on a date at the pool, but the former suffers repeated panic attacks that nearly get her akumatized into "Panic". She calms down when she realizes that her love troubles all stem from a memory from when she had a crush on Kim in eighth grade, only to be traumatized when he pulled a sadistic prank disguised as a declaration of love. This redirects the akuma to Kim, who feels rebuffed by Ondine when he told her and Adrien about the prank. He turns into "Dark Humor", a variant of Dark Cupid who makes people do dangerous pranks and has the Monkey Miraculous' power of Derision. After his defeat, Kim realizes the consequences of his pranks and apologizes to Marinette. Later, Adrien confronts an unrepentant Chloé over her talking Kim into pranking Marinette and ends their friendship permanently.
