After Marinette steps down from her role as Guardian and loses all her memories, including her history with Adrien, he returns to his modeling career in a desperate attempt to fill the void she left behind. But fame pulls him down a path of parties, scandals, and self-destruction. Vulnerable and broken, he falls into the hands of the manipulative Bob Roth, who plans to exploit him as a fading star.
While the media celebrates his apparent comeback, Adrien struggles with the weight of his past as Chat Noir and the memory of the girl who no longer remembers him. When Marinette reenters his life, unaware of who he was to her, Adrien must decide whether he's still capable of being a hero... even if she no longer remembers him.
