#ep409

And, according to this list, the episode Mega Leech, Guiltrip, Optigami, Sentibubbler and Rocketear were after Gabriel Agreste .

And since, this time, they decided to put the episodes in the story's chronological order, we can conclude that

The person who found out ShadowMoth's identity was either Lila, Chris, Félix, Adrien's Bodyguard or Amilie

How?

Lemme show you

First, lemme jot down the list of suspects(basically almost all the characters)

Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug Adrien Agreste/Cat Noir Alya Césaire/Rena Rouge Nino Lahiffe/Carapace Chloé Bourgeois/Queen Bee Zoé Lee/Vesperia Alix Kubdel/Bunnix Caline Bustier Mylène Haprèle Ivan Bruel Juleka Couffaine Lê Chiến Kim Lila Rossi Max Kanté/Pegasus Sabrina Raincomprix Kagami Tsurugi Adrien's bodyguard Félix Graham De Vanily Amilie Graham De Vanily Luka Couffaine Chris Lahiffe Markov

Now, how I crossed out characters:

Sentibubbler was after Gabriel Agreste , right? And Marinette asked Alya to follow the purified butterfly every time in that episode Why else would she need that unless she wants to find out who ShadowMoth is? And, why would she need to find him if she already knew who he was? Thus, this crosses Marinette off our list

Then comes Cat Noir/Adrien Agreste..His behaviour is proof that he didn't find out ShadowMoth's identity. Cuz, if he had, then he would not have just felt sad that Gabriel manipulated him into filming the ad , he would've snapped or smthg, coz ShadowMoth used that to akumatize the Mayor and even a baby can figure out that this was his whole plan after seeing it play out once they saw who he was... So, Adrien is crossed of the list

Alya is obviously crossed out because when ShadowMoth threatened her to expose Ladybug n bla bla she could've threatened him back cuz desperate times desperate measures but she didn't...so.... *shrugs * She is dismissed U.U

This very episode crosses Nino of our list too...cuz, Nino would have at least told Alya or Ladybug about him finding out the identity of SM (Ima call ShadowMoth SM from now on bcoz typing the full name takes a looong time) cuz the couple is all like "No secrets"; well, okay, unless Gabriel threatened him or smthg..........and, SM akumatized him thrice!! and, there is no reason for him to not blurt out his identity when he gets akumatized coz not everyone has control over what they say then..okay...the last one is half -baked, but I still don't think he is the one...

Zoé Lee- even if she would've found out, there would be absolutely no reason for her to hide the fact that she knows who SM is!! and, yes, that's blind trust, I know, but think about it, her knowing does not make sense..so we can put her in the maybe list ig

We don't know much about Alix which might help here...But she might not have been the one coz she does not follow the "There is a right time for everything" kind of bullshit(yet)...and again, has absolutely no reason to hide...she goes to the maybe list ig

And, Chloé, is, well, Chloé...if she found out then do you think she would've let SM akumatize her own father??Nope...I know she hasn't redeemed and is still a bitch but she does care about her parents you know...She only got akumatized into Miracle Queen once she made sure her parents were back to normal...She isn't really the person who keeps quiet until the Big Showdown...(Yeah, she would've boasted about it, A LOT) So she's not the one ig

Max is "straight to the point" and "stating the facts " kind of person so if he were to find out ppl wud have known and there would have been improvement in the plan accordngly but that's not what happened.,,and Markov is an AI but he still didn't figure out who Ladybug and Cat Noir were..the magic protects them...so unless he directly sees SM (which is less likely) he wouldn't know...so I crossed them out

Miss Bustier, Sabrina, Kim, Ivan, Luka,Kagami, Mylène, or Juleka knowing, again, doesn't make any sense...okay...this whole thing is mostly following my gut...but...there is no change in their behavior in the later episodes and I don't believe that they might be working with SM either...so we can put them in the maybe list...

So I guess that's how I crossed out * grins nervously *

*ahem* The colors I chose for the ...thing....above(idk what to call it okay) do not have anything to do with ships ...and I mean no character hate

Now, onto why I "didn't" cross out Lila, Chloé, Max, Chris, Félix, Adrien's Bodyguard , Amilie and Markov

Lila, almost everyone knows why I didn't cross her out...So far, she's a liar, manipulative, hates Ladybug, works for Hawkmoth and ...I don't trust her

It is , again, obvious why I didn't cross Félix out...Most theories I've read state that him or Lila might be the next "HM" if u know what I mean...thus it was hard to cross him out after so many ppl thinking so...and the fact that they had to get the rings back n with the Sentimonster theory , this further fuels the fact that he might be the next Hawkmoth..aaand, he also lost his father n went on to manipulate Adrien's friends into believing that Adrien hated them..... Thus proved..and, if Félix could be a suspect, he would have to visit Paris..and along with him comes his Mommy Dearest™ (jk, his mom is wayy better than Lady Gisela...*ahem*..anyways..back to mlb)so...why not add Amilie into the list too?

Now, "Why Chris?", u might ask.. "He's just a kid!"...Yes, I'm aware...but remember, in Timetagger, he KNEW, that this Hawkmoth was not the HM of the future...while that may be bcoz this HM got defeated or achieved his goal n his identity got revealed to everyone in the future, this might also be bcoz Chris already knew?? He's the last person I would suspect but this show taught us to "Expect the Unexpected" so I'm keeping him...

Side Note: Remember, the person who finds out doesn't have to be evil or turn to the bad side once they find out

Adrien's Bodyguard- Well, I have many reasons to suspect him...1. He is almost always around the house.. 2.He doesn't speak, as far as we know and can remain very silent. 3.This might also be the reason why Gabriel didn't panic about anyone outing him...and, I don't think I have seen him in the eps lately?So..i guess he could be fired?

Yeah, so...that's that

That's how I conclude:

Main suspects

Lila , Félix, Amilie, Chris, Adrien's Bodyguard

And all the other people are in the maybe list cuz we don't know for sure until we actually see the ep...and, I just didn't say it's mostly Lila or Félix because I think we should not just consider the characters portrayed negatively as an option for things like these but widen our options to the sweet ones too...

Please note: This is just my theory, and not confirmed, anything could happen

Now, a subject change(kind of)

**I had posted my theory abt this episode, saying that this S4E09 ep might give us the answer to the Sentimonster theory...but the spoiler, as u saw, states that someone might find out who SM is, thus the whole...you know....the thing...above XD

Yeah, so...if this is really the whole synopsis and we won't be getting the Agreste Backstory then we r back to square 1 on the sentimonster theory I guess...coz that also makes sense...someone found out that SM is Gabriel Agreste, thus the ep name

Welp, for the sake of the people going crazy about the Sentimonster theory, here's to hoping this is not the whole synopsis (which includes me)...but the chances are less... :(

I'm sorry for posting it so late, this had been in my draft for about 3 days but I just didn't have time to complete it

* takes a deep breath *

Well, now that all this is out of my system,

Thoughts?
