Picking up from Style Queen, Gabriel is seen at his mansion speaking in front of an unconscious Emilie, asking for forgiveness and defeated at not managing to get the Miraculous, so much he takes off his own Miraculous, giving up. He then goes back to his office, sitting defeated with Nathalie hugging him in comfort.

Nearing the end of the fashion show somewhere else, for the first time since his wife's "death," Gabriel turns up, hugging his son in front of everyone. With the fashion show over, Gabriel apologizes to Audrey for ignoring her and pointing out that she'll always be number one, since she discovered him. Soon after, she analyzes Marinette's hat, with Gabriel and Adrien complimenting that she's a terrific designer. Impressed with the work, Audrey offers Marinette the chance to go with her to New York to expand on her skills as a fashion designer, Adrien adding on that he would side with Marinette by modeling her work. Her family and friends are excited, but she looks nervous and shy. When everyone turns to ask Chloé's opinion, she complains that it's unfair that of all people, Audrey would take Marinette, and above all, ignore her, her own daughter. Audrey insists that Marinette, especially her work, are truly exceptional. Trying to prove her mother wrong, Chloé takes out the Bee Miraculous, cameras still rolling, and transforms into Queen Bee in front of everyone. She then claims that she's Paris' new hero and that she would prove it, leaving everyone behind. An unimpressed Audrey claims that Chloé has always been arrogant with her husband close behind. Everyone else hopes that Ladybug and Chat Noir show up soon to control Queen Bee.

Queen Bee waits at the top of a building, but sees nothing that would help her make her look like a hero, but gets an idea. Beforehand, she calls Nadja that they should get to the subways since she would be there to help a speeding train. Queen Bee then goes to a random train (unknown to her, Marinette and her parents are on it, who excited about Marinette's opportunity however Tikki reminds Marinette that only a Ladybug can't purify akumas and Tikki couldn't come with her) and paralyzes the engineer, and then makes the train go at full speed. She then announces that someone's attacked the engineer and that she, the new hero, would make the train stop. Soon though, she's unable to, stuck in front of the train as she tries to stop it. As Marinette's parents and others try to help the engineer and keep an eye out on Queen Bee, Marinette hides and transforms into Ladybug.

Adrien had already gotten home, but hides in his room and turns into Chat Noir, hurrying to the subways and getting there just as the press had. Ladybug then joins him as they get to the engineer, discovering that he was paralyzed and this was all just a ploy for Queen Bee to get attention. Ladybug goes to the back of the train and with her yo-yo, slows down the train enough for Chat Noir to throw his baton to block the train from going through another tunnel, and saving Queen Bee and the passengers. The engineer, finally able to move, turns off the train while Chat Noir helps the passengers out and Queen Bee boasts about saving everyone. Ladybug and Chat Noir then scold her in front of the press, without intending on the latter, that she did wrong and had to return the Miraculous. Queen Bee insists that she can help, and when her mother, in front of the press, comments that Chloé's actions speak for themselves, she feels ashamed. She escapes without Ladybug and Chat Noir realizing it, but go after her, though lose sight of her. Assuming she's gone to her home, they head for that direction.

Queen Bee, saddened by her mother's indifference to her, is then akumatized by Hawk Moth, revitalized by another chance. The Bee Miraculous as the akumatized object, Queen Bee is turned into Queen Wasp.

Ladybug and Chat Noir soon reach the balcony of Chloé's room, but she's nowhere to be seen. They decide to go to the lobby of the hotel, only to find everyone paralyzed by stings. Both confused since Miraculous powers can only be used once, Ladybug and Chat Noir turn to find Queen Wasp, surrounded by an army of wasps. She sends them to attack the superhero duo, who run out of the hotel and run over rooftops, trying to escape from the wasps, until they jump into Seine River, finally escaping the insects and Queen Wasps. The duo swim until they reach a boat, trying to come up with a plan. Ladybug calls upon her Lucky Charm, earning a snorkel. Finally, she gets an idea.

Traveling through Paris under trashcans, Ladybug and Chat Noir arrive to the roof of Le Grand Paris, where Queen Wasp had been waiting for them, but a little shocked to see them arriving like that. Using the trashcans, Ladybug and Chat Noir swipe away the wasps and jump over Queen Wasps. Trying to shake Chat Noir off, Ladybug wraps Queen Wasp with her yo-yo and all three go into the Seine River, where the wasps can't follow. The snorkel beeing used by Queen Wasp thanks to Ladybug, all three are fighting underwater. While Ladybug keeps Queen Wasp distracted, Chat Noir calls upon Cataclysm and touches the Bee Miracoulous, finally freeing Queen Wasp, who briefly turns back into Queen Bee, and back into her civilian form, Chloé. Ladybug and Chat Noir take Chloé and jump out of the water, in time for Ladybug to purify the akuma and use her Miraculous power to return everything back to normal, including the Bee Miraculous.

The press arrives once again, in time for Ladybug and Chat Noir, both calmer now, to try to convince Chloé to return the Bee Miraculous, but insists that she be given a second chance. Her mother reaffirms her earlier comment, Chloé becoming saddened again. Chat Noir then tells her that she can prove she's exceptional, with Ladybug adding that even superheroes make mistakes and for Chloé to prove that she's one too by returning the Bee Miraculous. Comforted by the duo, Chloé finally returns it to them and apologizes for the trouble. Happy, the two take off.

Later on, finally making a decision Marinette arrives at Chloé's with an idea. Later, Marinette arrives late, with Audrey believing that Marinette had accepted the chance to leave to New York. she refuses, saying she had a life in Paris with her family and friends, and that she still had lots to do, and that above all, she should be taking her daughter. Marinette then reveals that she helped Chloé pack up to go to New York with her mom. A little shocked, Audrey hears as Chloé pleads to go with her. Trying to help, Marinette says that Chloé is actually an exceptional person, exceptionally horrible, that is. Marinette goes on to say all the terrible things Chloé has done, much to her surprise because she assumed she was helping, which Marinette is but the others don't realize. Just then, Audrey, defending Chloé, and Chloé herself, scream at Marinette, both mother and daughter realizing their similar explosive attitude. Back to serious, Marinette tells them that was one proof of their similarity, and they'd both be surprised at other things if they gave it a chance. Marinette then leaves the two, leaving Audrey to question whether it was true all that Marinette says. Chloé admits it so in a boastful manner and adds other things, and then starts screaming at the butler the same way Audrey had with other people. Finally, the two embrace, Audrey deciding she would stick around some more time in Paris for her daughter. At her home Marinette is playing videogames with her parents and Alya who asks if she's alright with turning down Audrey's offer. She answers yes because Marinette knows everything and everyone she loves is in Paris especially her best friend as she and Alya embrace each other Marinette winked at Tikki who was watching prasing her for making the right choice before ending card appears.
