Tropes/Miraculous Retold/Wham Moments

==Season 1==
*In "Princess Fragance," Marinette asks Master Fu how he healed Tikki, and he says it's an "Ancient Chinese secret." Only after she's left does he add "...just like yours," making it clear that he knew all along exactly why she came to him.
*The finale "Volpina":
**When Adrien gets into his father's safe, the Peacock Miraculous (or a convincing copy) can be seen on the upper shelf. Sort of a meta example, as both Adrien and Plagg ignore the item; the wham is mostly for the audience.
**When Lila picks up the Miraculous book, she opens it and comes across the Fox Miraculous's pages, revealing its existence to the audience.
***Lila: A vixen superheroine? Hmm, interesting.
**When Ladybug tries to apologize to Lila:
***Lila: Forget it Ladybug, you were right. We'll never be friends.
**The very last line of the episode.
***Master Fu: Hello, Ladybug.
**Said episode and its direct followup Season 2 Episode 1 "The Collector." Over the course of the episodes, it is revealed that there are other Miraculous besides the ones wielded by Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Hawk Moth, Marinette meets Master Fu, the Great Guardian of the Miraculous, Hawk Moth's secret identity is confirmed without doubt to be Adrien's father Gabriel, and Gabriel's assistant Nathalie is revealed to be Hawk Moth's willing accomplice.
==Season 2==
*In "The Collector," Hawk Moth sends out his akuma like usual... and then tells it to stop before it leaves the window, because he's going to akumatize himself. Then he transforms back into his civilian identity: Gabriel Agreste.
*"Gorizilla" ends with a shot of a strange, mausoleum-looking room beneath the Agreste mansion. Furthermore, the framing of the shot implies that Gabriel's missing wife Emilie is inside the casket.
==Season 3==
*In "Timetagger," this line implies at the end of the episode that Lila becomes Hawk Moth in the future:
**Timetagger: I said I was sent by the Hawk Moth of the future, but I never said the Hawk Moth of the future was you.
*The finale two-parter: Chloe is willingly akumatized and outs all of the other temporary heroes other than Bunnyx to Hawk Moth in the process. Master Fu passes being a Guardian of the Miracle Box on to Ladybug, and it turns out this costs him most of his memories. Hawk Moth is also able to take possession of Master Fu's translation of the Miraculous grimoire and use it to repair the damaged Peacock Miraculous.
==Season 4==
*At the end of "Gang of Secrets..."
**Alya: Marinette, I'm your very best friend.
**Marinette: And I... am Ladybug.
*Every episode in Season 4 had some sort of shake-up to the status quo, but the second half of the two-part season finale, "Shadow Moth's Final Attack," ended on the biggest bombshell of them all. Félix spends most of the episode posing as Adrien (who had previously left France for a little globetrotting) to fool Marinette, but after Strike Back's defeat, he reveals his true colors and uses the power of the Dog Miraculous to get his hands on Ladybug's yo-yo and steal every single Miraculous it contains. He proceeds to hand them all to Gabriel on the condition that he make Félix the new wielder of the Peacock Miraculous.
==Season 5==
