• Young Gru : Mom, someday, I'm going to go to the moon.

• Young Gru : Look, Mom, I drew a picture of me landing on the moon.

  Gru's Mom : Eh.

  Young Gru : Look, Mom, I made a prototype of a rocket out of macaroni.

  Gru's Mom : Eh.

  Gru's Mom : I just wanted to congratulate you on stealing the pyramid.

  [Gru sighs] 

  Gru's Mom : That was you, wasn't it? Or was it a villain who's actually successful?

  [laughs] 

  Gru : Just so know, Mom. I'm about to do something. It's very very big. Very important, when you hear about it, you're going to be very proud.

  Gru's Mom : [Sarcastically laughs]  Good luck with that. Okay, I'm outta here!

• Gru : Mom? What are you doing here?

  Gru's Mom : [flipping through Gru's baby book with the girls]  And here he is in the bathtub. Ah, look at his little buns!

  Gru's Mom : And here, he's all dressed up in his Sunday best.

  Margo : He looks like a girl.

  Gru's Mom : Yes, he does. An ugly girl.

  [Gru rolls his eyes] 

  Gru's Mom : Maybe even better.

  [Gru smiles]
