Episode Title:
Mister Agreste
Episode Description:
Marinette continues to regret lying to Adrien and the world about Gabriel's secret identity following her latest nightmare, but Nathalie forces her to stick to their agreement to portray Gabriel as a hero. A flashback scene reveals that Luka still has feelings for Marinette and went to Brazil partly to avoid his jealousy over her relationship with Adrien; to hide his feelings, he has a Brazilian girl named Irupé pose as his girlfriend. When Marinette can't take the secrecy about Gabriel anymore, she goes to Brazil, borrows the Snake Miraculous from Luka, confesses her lie to him, and then uses the Miraculous to undo the confession to prevent things from getting worse. Meanwhile, Théo Barbot proposes to build a statue of Gabriel in Paris, but Adrien rejects it; he can't reconcile Gabriel's reputation as a hero with his abusive treatment of his son. Théo is akumatized into "Mister Agreste," a giant clay version of his statue; he is defeated by Adrien telling him the truth of what Gabriel was like as a father. After his defeat, Marinette decides it's probably best if she keeps up her lie. A stinger scene reveals that Irupé is also a Miraculous holder, with a kwami named Maino'li.
