- Gru: You seriously want to kidnap a honey badger? Do you have any idea how dangerous they are? They literally eat bees and cobras for breakfast, honey badger don't care!
- Gru: Don't think of it as lying. Think of it as high stakes pretending.
- Agnes: Well, I'm not going to.
- Gru: Ah, just a little white lie.
- Agnes: Nope!
- Gru: Agnes! As your father, I command you to lie.
- Agnes: No!
- Gru: Yes! Lie!
- Agnes: Mm-mm.
- Gru: You are walking on thin ice, little lady.
- [Agnes groans as she bangs her fork and spoon on the table. Gru Jr. grabs the piece of bacon from the fork and eats it.]
- Gru: Why can't you be more like your sister, Edith? She lies all the time.
- Edith: No I don't.
- Gru: See? See? She's lying right now. Beautifully, I might add.
