You know, little buddy. There's a yin for every yang. If there's bad, good will rise up against it. It's taken me a long time to find my calling. Now, it's about time you find yours.

6 quotes Metro Man/Music Man Metro Man/Music Man Although getting a whole museum is super-cool you want to know what the greatest honor you've given me is? Do you really want to know? Really? I'll tell you. The greatest honor you've given me is letting me serve you, the helpless people of Metro City.
Metro Man/Music Man Yeah, Metro City!
Metro Man/Music Man And I love you, random citizen!
Metro Man/Music Man I started to realize, despite all my powers, each and every citizen of Metro City had something I didn't - a choice. Ever since I can remember, I've always had to be what this city wanted me to be. What about what I wanted to do? Then it suddenly hit me - I do have a choice! I can be whatever I wanna be! No one said that this hero thing had to be a lifetime gig. You can't just quit either. That's when I got the brilliant idea... to fake my death. Once your death ray hit, I've never felt so alive. So I borrowed a prop from a nearby nursing school... Metro Man was finally dead, and Music Man was born!
Metro Man/Music Man [to Megamind]
Way to go, little buddy. I knew you had it in you.

4 scenes Metro Man Should have known you'd try to crash the party.
[on a video screen; threatening Metro Man]
Oh, I intend to do more than crash it. This is a day you and Metrocity shall not soon forget.
Metro Man It's pronounced METRO CITY!
Oh, potato-tomato, potato-tomato...
Metro Man We all know how this ends: with YOU behind bars!
[sarcastically]
Oh, I'm shaking in my custom, baby seal leather boots! [serious again] You will leave Metrocity, or this will be the last you ever hear of... ROXANNE RITCHI! [presses a button to show a captive Roxanne on a separate screen] Huh?
Metro Man [whispers dramatically]
Roxanne...! Don't panic, Roxie! I'm on my way.
Yeah, I'm not panicking.
We're at the abandoned observatory!
Metro Man Ah-ha!
[lunges for the control and turns off the camera on Roxanne]
No, we're not! Don't listen to her! She's crazy!
Over here, old friend. In case you haven't noticed, you've fallen right into my trap.
Metro Man You can't trap justice. It's an idea, a belief!
Well, even the most heartfelt belief can be corroded over time!
Metro Man Justice is a noncorrosive metal!
But metals can be melted by the heat of revange!
Metro Man It's "revenge", and it's best served cold!
But it could be easily reheated, in the microwave of evil!
Metro Man Well, I think your warranty is about to expire!
Maybe I've got an extended warranty!
Metro Man Warranties are invalid if you don't use the product for its intended purpose!
[throws a trophy at Metro Man who becomes "Music Man"]
How could you do this?! [throws a microphone] The people of this city relied on you... [throws an amplifier at him] ...and you deserted them! [smashes guitar over his head] You left us in the hands of him! [to Megamind] No offense.
Metro Man I'm sorry, I really am. Um, I'm... I'm done. You know, little buddy, there's a yin for every yang. If there's bad, good will rise up against it. It's taken me a long time to find my calling. Now, it's about time... you find yours.
Wow! I can’t believe he kept all this stuff. [sees a cape with a neck rest attached; sighs] I remember when he wore that.
Shouldn’t we try to stay focused here?
Yes, of course, right, focused.
Hey! Come over and look at this.
Um. Look. This glass has ice cubes in it.
Yes, that’s what happens when water gets cold.
[Metro Man, with a robe and beard, walks behind them, shocked to see them, and tries to quietly walk away.]
No. What I’m saying is: Don’t you think it’s a little odd that the ice hasn’t melted yet?
One of life’s great mysteries.
Metro Man [Metro Man’s step creaks a floorboard, causing Roxane and Megamind to both slowly turn and make eye contact with Metro Man]
...Hey.
News Reporter
[Megamind and Roxanne both scream. Cut to a news report of Titan destroying Metro City. We then see Minion, who's now living in a small apartment since he left Megamind, looking at the destruction on a TV with horror.]
We now have confirmed reports. Titan, first thought to be the city’s new hero, has turned evil. The city has never seen this level of destruction. If only Metro Man were still alive.
