[neon buzzing]

[soft music playing]

- Okay, okay. That's enough of that.
- [music slows, stops]

Hello, loyal viewers!

Like me, you probably never
thought this day would come.

I see some old friends.
I see new friends.

I see friends who frankly
should put some pants on

and venture outside
occasionally.

Seriously, get some sun!

But, for those who
are just joining us,

here's a little something
to catch you up in the form

of my incredibly exciting
superhero origin story!

- [beeps]
- [exciting music playing]

Metrocity, a city full of danger,

and only Metro Man was strong
enough to defend it from evil.

- Until I totally kicked his butt!
- [zap]

[expl*si*n blasts]

- That's me, Megamind.
- [dance music playing]

Incredibly handsome
criminal genius

and master of all villainy.

But without a hero to fight,
I felt lonely.

So I created a new superhero
to play with named Titan.

Unfortunately, he was a worse
villain than I ever was.

[stone crashing]

It was then that I realized

my destiny was not
to be a supervillain,

but a superhero.

- I defeated Titan and saved the day.
- [whirring]

[triumphant music playing]

I became Megamind,
defender of Metrocity.

- [crowd cheering]
- But little did I know,

my greatest challenge
was yet to come.

[dramatic crescendo]

[soft music playing]

[gurgling]

Blue Mackerel: You're in
my personal space, bro.

Red Snapper: Oh, well,
excuse me for swimming!

I don't think that
was a sincere apology!

- It's not!
- Big King Fish: Both of you, clam up!

[bang]

We got work to do.

- [intense music playing]
- Go fish.

[tapping]

Here goes.

- [yelling, laughing]
- [reels unspooling]

[grunting]

[reels spooling]

There it is.

- [jewels sparkling]
- [laughs] Catch of the day.

- [glass cracking]
- [water rushing]

Ooh, this little baby's
gonna be worth a fortune

on the black fish market!

[Megamind laughs]

[rock music playing]

[whirring, beeping]

You'd think with all
the time you guys spent

swimming in "shools,"
you'd be smarter.

The Go Fish g*ng:
Megamind?!

I knew it was only
a matter of time

before the Go Fish g*ng
tried to steal

the diamond-encrusted koi

on loan from
the Beijing Water Palace.

It's something the old evil me

would've done [laughs]
way back in the day.

Sir, "way back in the day"
was just two days ago.

That's all? Time certainly drags
when you're a good guy.

Minion,
how could you possibly serve

a bad guy who's turned hero?

Quick correction there.

Due to a cease-and-desist order
from popular fast food chain

Mr. Minion's Meat-sicles,

I can no longer
call myself Minion.

So, Megamind gave me a new name.

Ol' Chum.
It means, "old friend."

[sentimental music playing]

Yeah, well, chum also
means something else.

- Shark bait!
- [dramatic sting]

[glass cracking]

Wait, chum means "shark bait"?

Why, yes! Sharks love bait!

It's a term of endearment.

- Aw!
- [gasps]

- [glass shatters]
- [shark roars]

It looks like we're both
about to be shark bait!

- Not for long.
- [zaps]

[triumphant music playing]

- [clanking]
- [Chum sighs]

Apex predators are
a whole lot cuter

when you can put
them in your pocket.

- [The Go Fish g*ng laughing]
- They're getting away, sir!

♪♪

Brainbot 227,
launch Porta-Prison!

[whirring]

[lasers zapping]

- Huh?
- Hey! What's going on here?

That oughta hold you
until we can transfer you

to your fishbowls.

- In jail... Huh?
- [glitching]

[whirring stops]

- [Go Fish g*ng laughing]
- Whoopsie.

- Chum, this is beyond embarrassing!
- [fizzling]

Sorry, sir.

Hey, Megamind! Your gadgets
are like the Titanic,

a total disaster!

- [Go Fish g*ng laugh]
- Megamind: How dare you!

The Titanic was a delight
for most of the journey.

After them!

[dramatic music playing]

[truck horn blowing]

- [brakes hiss]
- [Megamind gasps]

They're in a fish tank!

[accelerating beeping]

[water blasts]

[blubbering, yelling]

[all screaming]

[laughing]
You were great villains,

but as heroes,
you guys are all wet!

Let's finish them off!

[engine roaring]

Chum, cube me.

[grunts]

[clinking]

- Huh?
- What the?

Bullseye!

- [dramatic music playing]
- Ha!

Alley-oop. [grunts]

[straining, grunting]

Whoa!

[grunts, spits]
Water in the hole!

Huh?

[splashing]

[zapping]

[Go Fish g*ng screaming]

[tank treads screeching]

[people screaming]

Chum:
Sir, those bystanders are about to get squished!

It does not look good for them.

Oh, right! I'm a hero now.

May I suggest
the portal bazooka?

- You read my mind, Chum.
- [zaps]

- [grunts]
- [whirring]

[zaps]

Kids: Yay!

- [whirring, zaps]
- [grunts]

[zap]

- [Go Fish g*ng screaming]
- [smashing]

- [screaming]
- Ah, shark!

Crime.
It's a hard halibut to break.

[groans]

Chum, make a note.
No more puns.

- They're beneath us.
- [laughing]

Halibut! Like the fish!

Brilliant, sir!
Just brilliant!

♪♪

And tell all your evil friends

Metrocity has a new defender,

- and his name is Megamind!
- [car engine starts]

[siren blaring]

Aren't you forgetting
another defender, sir?

Don't think so.

You didn't, by chance,
forget about someone who,

I don't know, say,
gallantly fought by your side?

Ah, of course! How could
I have possibly forgotten?

- Chum, my friend?
- Yes, sir?

- [whistling]
- [whirring]

- Fix Brainbot 227.
- [buzzing]

That short-out was
a little embarrassing.

Remember, I have a super
heroic image to maintain.

- [sorrowful music playing]
- [beeping]

[TV news theme playing]

Crime continues to plunge
since Megamind saved Metro city

from the clutches of evil.
But now, villains,

many who flew below
Metro Man's radar,

are coming out of the woodwork.

So far, our new blue hero
seems up to the task.

And while many changes
are afoot in Metro City,

the one constant is me,
Roxanne Ritchi,

reporting on
the accomplishments of others.

- Huh. Honestly, how did that sound?
- [camera beeps]

Child:
Like you just realized you've lost all interest in your job,

and you're going through
the motions.

Other than that, slam dunk!

- And you are?
- Keiko Morita,

president of Megamind's
number-one streaming online

fan club MegaWatch,

covering all things blue
and super-heroic in Metro City.

- Um... okay.
- Have time for a few questions?

What is happening right now?

Roxanne Ritchi,
you just helped Megamind

save the city from Titan.

So what's your
awesome next step?

Next step?
A-And are you recording this?

Don't worry, it's great!

Obviously, you're too cool
to be just on television.

You're a shark.
You have to keep moving, girl!

- You gotta have a side hustle!
- You're not wrong.

I don't know.
Reporting is important,

but Megamind has been
a hero for only a few days,

and he's already making
a big difference in this city.

Can't help thinking
maybe there's a way

I can be doing more, too.

Wait, why am I telling you
this? How old are you again?

- You first.
- Touché.

What you need to do is find
the thing you wanna do

and go for it.
Look at me!

A few weeks ago,
I was a middle schooler

sitting in detention. Now,

I'm streaming a show with
a half-million subscribers.

Did you say half million?

That's like


- not counting family and pets.
- Keiko Morita: Gotta go.

Wanna get a better shot of
the ceremony before it starts.

- Good talk though.
- Yeah! Good talk. [laughs]

Half million...

For his ongoing heroic actions
as Metro's defender,

- I award Megamind the key to our fair city.
- [crowd cheering]

[laughs] I-I mean,
why not, right? [laughs] - [Megamind laughing]

- Crowd: Megamind! Megamind!
- Thank you, thank you.

You're very kind.

- [grunting]
- [key clangs]

[struggling]

[Chum laughing]

Chum, be a good assistant
and deal with this for me.

- [clangs, clatters]
- Whoa!

[clears throat]
Been getting some feedback

that some of my speeches have
been running a little long,

- so I cut this one down...
- [paper rattling]

...to step length.

Since the dawn of time,

man has been dealing
with good versus evil.

Hey, Chum.
How's the new hero gig going?

Everything's changed for him.

- Me, not so much.
- I know what you mean.

I thought I was more to him.

I thought I was
like his sidekick.

But he still just
sees me as the minion

who fixes his brainbots
and washes his socks.

You know, someone
very recently told me,

if you know what you want,
go for it.

So, tell Megamind you want
a promotion to sidekick.

Oh, it's not
a minion's place to...

Roxanne Ritchi:
But you're not a minion.

You're more than that.

Maybe you just need
to remind him

how valuable you really are.

Speak from the heart.

- [hopeful music playing]
- You're right.

I need to speak from the heart.

And that's why
you're all so lucky

- to have me as your hero.
- [applause, cheering]

Megamind out!

Uh! Excuse me!
[panting] Megamind?

I'm Keiko Morita,
president of your fan club.

President?
Oh, I have nothing but respect

- for those who assume power.
- Then you'll love this.

I'm also your new
social media manager,

streaming content creator,
and image consultant.

Those are a lot of words
I don't understand.

Whoa! Is that
the disguise generator?

- Can I try it?
- Don't touch that!

It's a highly sophisticated
electronic device.

It's cool! My generation
was born tech-savvy.

Really? Then I suppose this is
one of those smarty-pants phones

with a calculator
built right in.

Okay, wow. That proves
you really need my help.

You were threatening
the city a few days ago.

Now you're defending it!

People wanna know who
the new heroic Megamind is!

I'll help you show them.

You have a lot of energy.

Did you just consume
a pound of sugar?

Nope!
I'm like this naturally!

Must be exhausting.

I wanna be a crime fighter
just like you.

You know, part of the team.

[sighs] Here's the thing.

I don't do teams.

I'm more of a solo act,

but you're adorable
in a pushy sort of way.

So, here's a souvenir.

It's either a paperweight
or a flash grenade.

I can't remember which,
so careful with that.

He'll come around.

Here he comes. You ready?

Oh, absolutely!

Had the brainbots
program an algorithm

for a surefire
negotiation speech.

Not what I meant by
speaking from the heart.

Ah, there you are, Chum.
Let's head back to the lair.

Those socks aren't
gonna wash themselves.

- [beeps]
- [motivational music playing]

[Chum clears throat]

Good afternoon!

Do you aspire for success?

I bet you do.

Well, insert boss' name here,
while I humbly appreciate

the opportunities
you've given me,

since we've altered the mission
statement of our organization,

I'm confident
I could achieve more.

I believe I have made

significant contributions
to the new paradigm

and wish for
positional advancement

befitting my more than
adequate executions

of said opportunities.

- [beeps]
- [music stops]

Chum, you're talking gibberish.

Might be time to change
your bowl water again.

Uh, what I'm trying to ask,
uh...

Chum wants a promotion!
He wants to be your sidekick.

Sidekick?
That's a big change.

I don't think you've thought
through this, old friend.

We've got a dynamic here.
I'm the hero.

You're the guy who gets
to hang out with the hero.

Now, with that
firmly reestablished,

let's go get some churros.

[clears throat loudly]

Sir, if you don't
recognize my contributions,

maybe it's time for me to
explore other opportunities.

Hm. Okay.

- Well, if you feel that strongly about it...
- Oh.

Okay then. Uh...

If you feel that strongly about
me feeling strongly about it...

I feel strongly about
you feeling strongly

that I feel strongly about
you feeling strongly.

Okay, we get it!
Everyone's feeling strongly.

No, Roxanne!
Who am I to clip Chum's wings?

I say fly, you magnificent dove.

[sighs] Yes. I will fly.

I thank you for all
the good times we had.

We part now on friendly terms.

- [Chum's suit whirring]
- [emotional music playing]

I'll be a monkey's uncle!

He's really
walking away this time!

- I don't believe you.
- It's just a figure of speech.

I'm not really a monkey's uncle.

I mean, I can't believe
you just let him quit!

Relax.
It's a negotiation tactic.

Like the time he went
on a hunger strike

because he wanted
a pet parakeet.

What did you do then?

I waited him out
until he finally gave in.

Parakeets are poop machines.

[sighs]
Everything is changing so fast.

Sometimes, I miss the simplicity
of the bad old days.

Why did you change it

That was so much better.

Lord Nighty-Knight:

It's like a night that's even
darker than a usual night.

Plus, I'm an actual knight,
which is also super dark.

But is it dark?

Say what?!

Behemoth leader!

You are not ze leader!
It is moi!

Nighty-Knight:
No, Megamind gave me his darkest blessing.

Raise your hand

Megamind left you in charge.

Pierre Pressure:
I do!

Ugh, seriously?!

How many leaders think

Fine. It's settled then.

I agree. But, there is
just one little thing

Is that any way to
welcome your old crew?

I mean...
what an unpleasant surprise!

My old evil supervillain team.

Nighty-Knight:
You must be so stoked to see us.

Stoked doesn't begin to

Get zis. He now wants

It's scarier!

Oh, yes. I'm terrified.

Roxanne is here,

before us,
because she's agreed...

Syndicate:
Yeah?

They still think I'm evil

and only pretending

Opposites attract, no?

Like crepes and marmalade.

Can you guys excuse us?
Need a quick word in the kitchen

- [splats]
- Ow!

I'll have you know those have
a warm fruit-filled center

that could have left me
horribly d*sfigured.

Why didn't you
tell them the truth?

Tell them I'm really a hero?
Are you crazy?

There's four of them,
and only one of me!

They'll pound me into
a blue pulp, Roxanne.

They're going to
find out eventually.

Oh, and since when were you
ever part of The Doom Syndicate?

Uh...

Uh...

[sighs] Founding member,
actually.

I was cutting my evil teeth

shortly after graduating
from Villain Shool.

You went to a villain shool?
I mean, school.

Really more of
a mentorship program.

Unfortunately, my evil professor
and I had a falling out.

He kind of went to pieces.
[laughs] Literally.

Always learning
new things about you.

So, I recruited
the very best of the worst.

- [snaps]
- [door creaking]

[whirring, beeping]

- [expl*si*n blasts]
- With me as their handsome leader,

- The Doom Syndicate was the premier villain team.
- [rock music playing]

Man, those were good times.

I mean, they were bad times

that were good when I was bad.

[nervous laugh]
But eventually, I realized

I didn't like sharing
the spotlight.

So, you ditched them?

I told them I was
working on an evil project.

- [brainbot whirs]
- And that I'd signal them when I took over Metrocity,

which they think I have.

Until I can figure out
a way to stop them,

we must keep up
evil appearances.

No. No! No way!

Come on, Roxanne. Please?

No!

Pleas...

And we're back.

So, you guys have any schemes?

I mean,
plans while you're in town?

- [nervous laugh]
- Nighty-Knight: No,

- but this guy does! [laughs]
- [grunts]

[nervous laugh]
I'm not following.

Lady Doppler:
We're here for Phase Two, silly.

[gasps] Phase Two.

What's a Phase Two?

Guess your boyfriend
doesn't tell you everything.

Megamind said when
he took over Metro City,

we'd all have a place
in the next phase

of his evil master plan.

Phase Two is such a genius plan.

I cannot wait to get started!

Yeah! That's actually
one of the reasons

why I agreed to evil-marry him.

- I love a good Phase Two.
- [yelps]

But, remind me again
what this one is

and what havoc it might wreak?

Would you give us a moment?

Relax. I never even bothered
to finish Phase Two.

- Lady Doppler: Let's roll!
- [Syndicate laughs]

[gasps]
What's the mad rush, guys?

You just got here!

Let's have some fun before
jumping into evil business.

Charades, anyone?

I say we break
in Megamind's city

with a good old-fashioned
crime spree.

Syndicate:
Yeah!

I don't know, guys.

Aren't we all a little above
crime spree-ing at this point?

Firstly, my keen eye for detail

Latest market research shows

Second, let's face it.

I propose a menu change.

And what's the one food
everybody loves?

Donuts!

You didn't fail me.

What do you mean?

When I first moved to
Metro City with my mom,

I got teased a lot.

My name, the way I dressed,

the way I just say
whatever's on my mind.

I think being an outsider,

people just assumed
I was a bad kid.

I started being what
they expected of me,

getting into fights,
skipping class.

But then, you stopped Titan.

It showed me maybe
I don't have to live up

to others' expectations.

I just have to
live up to my own.

If a bad guy can become a hero,

maybe so can a bad kid.

Must be disappointing to see

your hero's such a fraidy-cat.

No! Shows you're smart!

Because you have zero
chance of defeating

The Doom Syndicate on your own.

I thought you
were my biggest fan.

I am, but I'm also a realist.

I'm both comforted
and confused by this pep talk.

Look, putting aside
your silly pride

and admitting you
need help is not weak.

a true friend is with you,

no matter what.

your gooey moment.

I'm gonna go watch our six.

This is a big no-matter-what.

You get our backs,

Chum:
You don't need to ask.

Chum?
What are you doing here?

My work is done with Mr. Donut.

But, Sir, my work is
never done with you.

away from those launch controls.

Can someone get in
through there?

I have no doubt I can.

That leaves you and me
