A scene from Despicable Me 2 2013
Eduardo/El Macho

[in El Macho’s lair] [appears behind Gru]

You have not lost your touch, my friend.

Gru

Aha! I knew it! You are El Macho!

Eduardo/El Macho

That’s right!

Gru

[eager]

Nobody believed me! Ho ho! But I knew you weren't dead!

Eduardo/El Macho

[laughing]

Of course not. I merely faked my death! [chuckles] But now, it’s time for me to make a spectacular return to evil! Doctor, I think it’s time we showed Gru what we’re up to here.

Gru

Doctor Nefario?

Dr. Nefario

Nice to see you, Gru.

Gru

Whaaa? This— so this is your new job opportunity?

Dr. Nefario

Absolutely. You’re gonna like this. [presses a button, revealing a purple Kevin strapped to a chair]

Eduardo/El Macho

Sorry. I had to borrow some of your Minions, but it was for a worthy cause.

Gru

Oh! Kevin? [tries to approach Kevin, but repels with disgust] Ugh!

Eduardo/El Macho

No! He's not Kevin anymore! Now he's an indestructible, mindless, killing machine!

Evil Kevin

BLAUGH!

Eduardo/El Macho

[jumps in fear, but quickly recovers]

Just watch this. [presses a button]

Evil Kevin

[a machine gun descends and sprays him with bullets]

BLAUGH! [ a flamethrower descends] BLAUGH! [it sprays him with flame. An axe descends and hits him over the head, he jumps up and eats it. A bomb falls and he swallows it, exploding harmlessly inside him. A police car, siren running, falls on him. He eats it in six bites] BLAUGH!

Eduardo/El Macho

And here's the best part, I got an army of them! [some lights turn on, revealing hundreds of cages full of evil minions; Gru receives a horrified look on his face once seeing them] Soon I will unleash them on the world! And if anyone, anyone tries to stop them, YEOW! Their city gets eaten. [pause] We can do it together!

Gru

Together?

Eduardo/El Macho

Together! I have admired your work for years, amigo! Stealing the moon?! [yanking on Gru's scarf] Are you kidding?! We would be unstoppable! Men like you, men like me, we should be ruling the world! [excitedly] So, are you in?

Dr. Nefario

[holding a noisemaker]

Woo-hoo!

Gru

Uh...yeah...probably...

Eduardo/El Macho

[confused]

Probably?

Gru

[stepping backwards]

I mean, yes! Yes. Of course, yes, I just have a lot going on right now...I just need to get some things off my plate before we start taking over the world, that’s all.

Eduardo/El Macho

‘Scuse me?

Gru

No—forget it! One hundred percent! I am in! [pretending] I think—what is—do you hear that— I do. That’s Agnes calling me from on the surf— [steps into the elevator which closes, but immediately opens again; hastily pressing a button] Totally in! [the elevator closes]

Eduardo/El Macho

[suspicious]

You know what? I am not so convinced that he is in. [presses a button, releasing Kevin]

Evil Kevin

BLAUGH!

Gru

[Back upstairs, Edith, who’s blindfolded, lightly touches the piñata with a baseball bat, finally smacking it into pieces, revealing candy on the ground]

Edith! Agnes! Come on! [Edith accidentally hits him in the head with a baseball bat] Ooof!

Edith

[takes off her blindfold]

Sorry.

Gru

We need to go home now! Where’s Margo?

Agnes

But I didn’t get a turn!

Gru

[Meanwhile, a depressed Margo is sitting alone, eating a guacamole sombero]

Margo! [approaches her with Edith and Agnes] Come on, we're leav... Hey, what’s wrong?

Margo

[disappointed]

I hate boys.

Gru

[It is revealed that Antonio is dancing with another girl] [referring to boys]

Yes, they stink. Look sorry, honey, we have to leave. [sends Margo away and comes back to screen, then angrily shoots his freeze ray at Antonio for leaving Margo heartbroken without saying anything]
