In the house boat, Adrien saw the connection Marinette and Luka got going on, he start to feel mad and sad about it, Kagami noticed the feeling from him.
Kagami: Adrien, you okay?
Adrien: Huh? Ye-yeah. I'm fine.
Kagami: You sure?
Adrien: I said I'm okay!
Kagami: Okay. Just making sure. Sounds like you're getting jealous.
Adrien: Jealous? Who said I'm jealous?
Kagami: Nobody, but it's all over your face. Marinette: That was fun.
Luka: Glad you like it. *Anarka walked down the deck holding a broomstick.*
Anarka: Ahh, you're all here. I'll let you guys have some fun. *She walk away, Adrien see Marinette and he decided to make his move, but Alya sit next to her.*
Adrien: (Dang it. She beat me to it. Guess I better wait.)
Alya: So, what do you think of Luka?
Marinette: He's okay. Think I should date him?
Alya: It's up to you. You like him right?
Marinette: Yeah.
Alya: There you go. Go for it.
Marinette: I'll do it.
Rose: Now or...
Marinette: Later. (When he's not too busy.)
Adrien: (She's gonna ask Luka out? That's it! I'm stepping in.) *He go up to her.*
Kagami: Adrien, where are you... *She see Adrien going up to Marinette.* (What are you doing? I thought you like me.)
Adrien: Marinette.
Marinette: (Ugh. Him again.) Yes?
Adrien: Can I talk to you for a minute?
Marinette: Okay. *She get up and follow Adrien to the upper deck.* Okay, what do you want to talk about? *Adrien kiss her on the lips, Marinette's eyes were wide open, Marinette push him off of her.* What the heck, Adrien? Why did you kiss me? *She wipe her mouth and spit too.*
Adrien: I couldn't hold it in anymore. The fact seeing you and Luka together, it triggered me.
Marinette: Triggered you how?
Adrien: I'm jealous! Okay? There I said! I am jealous of you and Luka! I'm sorry Milady.
Marinette: Milad... you found out I'm Ladybug, didn't you?
Adrien: I'm sorry. I couldn't handle the wait, I had to find out myself.
Marinette: You're clueless you know that?
Adrien: I'm aware of that, yes.
Marinette: Why would you find out like that? Do you have any idea what would happen if we reveal who we are?
Adrien: Oh, so it's different when Luka found out?
Marinette: Okay. That was an accident. And for your information, he already figured it out.
Adrien: What? How? *He grasp at her arms.* When did it all started?
Marinette: When he gave me his miraculous back and when he saw me get out of my Ladybug form. And let go of my arms.
Adrien: Sorry. *He stepped back once.* It's not fair if he knows your identity and I can't know.
Marinette: You know why, you ding-dong! Hawkmoth will take that an an advantage and hurt the people that we care about. Our friends... our family. You should know that.
Adrien: You're right. I'm sorry.
Marinette: Let me ask you something, Adrien. Did you really love me? The real me not Ladybug?
Adrien: Well, y-yes.
Marinette: Don't lie to me.
Adrien: Okay, I didn't love you as your normal self, I only see you as a friend.
Marinette: Ugh. I knew it! I knew you would say that. You only like me because I'm Ladybug, is that it?
Adrien: Yes. I'm sorry, Marinette. If I can turn back time, I would never find out you were Ladybug.
Marinette: Well it looks like you can't. You saw what you saw and now you deal with the consequences of seeing if not revealing yourself to me but seeing my identity! *Her eyes start to form tears.*
Adrien: What about me as Cat Noir? It looks like my side has a connection when I'm with you.
Marinette: Not my fault you came over all the time. *She sniffed and dry her eyes.* It's not fair for both of us and more importantly, now that I'm the guardian, I'm gonna have to do something.
Adrien: What are you saying?
Marinette: Sorry, Adrien. I'm gonna have to take your miraculous.
Adrien: What? *He cover his hand where the ring is at.* You can't do that. I'm sorry that I found out your identity and revealed too soon. But you can't take my ring away.
Marinette: Adrien, as guardian, it's my job to take miraculouses away. Especially ones that revealed too soon when they shouldn't have. *She stick her hand out to him.*
Adrien: Could you just change the rule? Just this once, please?
Marinette: No! I can't change the rules. The rules stay until Hawkmoth and Mayura are defeated. You should've thought about that before you became impatient about knowing who I am and revealing yourself when you know you shouldn't do that. Hand it over. *Adrien sighed.*
Adrien: I'm sorry, Marinette. Can I say goodbye to Plagg?
Marinette: Okay. *Plagg appeared.*
Adrien: Good bye, Plagg.
Plagg: Eh. It was bound to happen anyway. Hope you'll learn a valuable lesson about what you did.
Adrien: Trust me, I will. Good bye, Plagg.*
Plagg: Bye, Adrien. *Adrien take the ring off and hand it to Marinette.* I guess this is it?
Marinette: Yes. It was nice working with you, Kitty. *She walk away from him, Adrien look sad and he start to look sad and tears fall from his face.*
Adrien: (I messed up big this time.)
