Gru

 * [to his son, Gru Jr.] I know you love your dada. Go on, say it. "Dada. Da-da." [Lucy: "Of course he loves you. He just doesn't show it on his face... or with his body language."]
 * The most important part of a heist is being aware of potential dangers.
 * Please, Junior. Daddy needs to steal a honey badger.
 * I'll hit him with this. Once he's knocked out, we'll open the cage. That fuzzy demon will sleep like a baby.
 * [screams] I tranqed myself!
 * Like a nice meat loaf, I am pretty delicious!"

Lucy

 * [to Gru, about Jr.] Of course he loves you. He just doesn't show it on his face... or with his body language.

Poppy Prescott

 * Hello, Gru. It is I, Poppy Prescott, villainess.
 * You used to be a master villain.
 * Oh, don't worry, I'm not going to expose you, because you're going to help me pull a heist. We start planning tomorrow.
 * I plan on being a lot better than you.
 * I don't respect boomers. I just mock them.
 * Like you, I was born to be bad.

Maxime Le Mal

 * I'm unstoppable!
 * I'm coming for my revenge, Gru!
 * Okay, let's see. Regular unleaded? Oh, wow, it is expensive, no? Okay, insert card and remove rapidly. [shows a card not read sign] Card not read? [tries it again, but gets the same result] Come on.
 * It's always something, I can never focus on just being evil.
 * Did you think I was going to look like a born loser with a dad bod?

Dialogue

 * 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.


 * Gru: Is that my old school?
 * Poppy: Which I have modeled with glue and popsicle sticks.


 * Maxime: Okay, let's see. Regular unleaded? Oh, wow, it is expensive, no? Okay, insert card and remove rapidly. [shows a card not read sign] Card not read? [tries it again, but gets the same result] Come on.
 * Valentina: Did you pull it out rapidly?
 * Maxime: Yes, yes! Very rapidly! Oh, come on. Work. [tries again once more and the sign shows "Please see attendant"] Ugh! [breaks the pump in frustration]
