It's midday, Saturday and Alya, Nino, Adrien, and Marinette are in the park having a picnic. They're all sitting there casually, eating sandwiches and croissants that Marinette's parents have decided to make.

Marinette feels the pressure of eating right next to Adrien as Alya lies in Nino's lap while she eats. Marinette tries to throw a grape in her mouth and fails as the grape pops out of her mouth. This didn't go unseen by everyone else so they start laughing, causing Marinette to blush.

"1,"

Both Alya and Nino are confused yet impressed when they see Adrien able to climb the side of the tall fence and perch himself atop it. Then the three of them witness Marinette leap from the edge of the fountain to middle tier to quickly balance herself on one foot on the top tier.

Both Adrien and Marinette give each other confused looks but laugh when they both look at the couple below, who are completely baffled at their....
