Jubilation Mr. Damocles continues to try (and fail) to be The Owl, but Marinette's former classmate, Socqueline, comes to his rescue, dressed as Ladybug. His mask accidentally gets destroyed, so Socqueline gives him a replacement from her arts and crafts shop, but he is dissatisfied by it. At the same time, Marinette tells Socqueline how dangerous it is to play Ladybug. Marinette borrows Socqueline's Alliance ring and leaves for a mission, but Monarch tracks its movement, making his suspicions fall on the latter. He akumatizes Mr. Damocles into an upgraded version of Dark Owl called "Darker Owl" with the Pig Miraculous' power of Jubilation. He hypnotizes both Ladybug and Cat Noir with a vision of them defeating Monarch, marrying, and starting a family, but they break out of it and defeat him, much to their sadness. Later, Marinette's mother gifts her an Alliance ring, but Marinette refuses, cautious about its abilities.
