Scene: The Louvre. People are watching displays at the Egyptian gallery. Alim Kubdel and two other workers are moving a framed papyrus.

Alim: Easy... easy...

In another section of the museum, Marinette draws a statue of a past Miraculous holder, Alya takes photos of the paintings, Zane and The Z's look at photos of past rangers. Rangers that existed far before the MMPR Rangers.

Alya: There's gotta be more. We just need to find the seals of the Guardians. (takes another photo) There! (zooms in on it, revealing a seal)

The two stare at a painting of the Ancient European Rabbit Miraculous holder.

Marinette: So this lady was a holder?

Alya: Of the rabbit, obviously.

Marinette: (looks around) Miraculous holders are always pictured solo, but there had to have been some love stories between some of them. A Ladybug and a Cat Noir in love, it must've happened at some point, right?

Alya: Or maybe they just focused on the job and kept their lovey-dovey stuff out of their superhero lives, like you should.

Zane: Preferably with a boy you've been in love with for a long time who's finally interested in you? Does a certain Adrien ring any bells?

Marinette: Oh no, no way! Being in love with Adrien has brought me nothing but trouble. Never again! Tikki, it must've happened in the past. A Ladybug in love with a Cat Noir.

Tikki: Well, yes, but... there was no evil Monarch intent on stealing their Miraculous back then.

Marinette: So... things were going on between them?

Tikki: Oh... I don't know much about romance, you know? Maybe it would be best if you asked her yourself.

Marinette: Can we do that?

Tikki: Yes, Marinette, with your Kwagatama.

Marinette recalls Tikki giving her a Kwagatama back in "Befana", then takes it off her neck and shows it to Alya.

Alya: (gasps) Scoop! There's a way to talk to Miraculous holders of the past?

Tikki: Just touch the seal with your Kwagatama and say "reunion"!

Zaria: (looks around from behind a corner) There's no one there. We're good to go.

Marinette walks up to the statue she was drawing previously. Her Kwagatama lights up, frightening her.

She backs off and accidentally knocks the ancient Rabbit Miraculous holder's painting off the wall, triggering the museum's alarm.

A sealed letter is revealed to be hidden on the back side of the painting. Mr. Kubdel and his co-workers run to the room.

Zeke: What's that? (picks the letter up)

Marinette: It looks like it was hidden here hundreds of years ago. And it's addressed to... Alim Kubdel?

Upon hearing the footsteps of the workers, Marinette hides the letter behind her back. The painting is quickly placed back on the wall by one of the men.

Alim: What happened here?

Marinette: A letter... for you!

Alim dusts off the envelope, opens it and starts reading the letter inside.

Alim: Ah, finally!

Alya: Photos... but that's impossible, photography hadn't been invented yet.

Alim: It's news from my daughter!
