[English]

Hi. Take out for Lucy?

Sure, just a sec.

(HEAVY BREATHING)

(WATCH BEEPS)

SHANNON: Your accent is so exotic.

GRU: Ah, well thank you very much. I was--

SHANNON: I know someone who can fix that for you and you'll be talking

normal in no time!

(LAUGHING NERVOUSLY)

Whew, is it hot in here?

How's the food?

Wait a minute, wait a minute. Are you wearing a wig?

What? Ah, I don't think so. (CHUCKLING)

I knew it. You're a phony. I hate phonies.

Oh, what? No, these locks are all mine.

No, they're not! You know what I'm gonna do?

I'm gonna rip that thing off your head and show everyone

what a bald-headed phony you are!

-I don't think so, Miss Lady. -(WATCH BEEPS)

(MECHANICAL CLICKING)

Ooh! Ugh.

Hello? Hello? Are you--

LUCY: Hey, Gru!

Hello, Lucy. How you doing?

Wow, looks like your date's out for the count.

It's like she's been shot with a mild moose tranquilizer.

(MOANING)

Yeah, I'm winking 'cause that's what actually happened.

WAITER: Scusi, what's happening here? She no like?

Oh, she's just uh...

(GULPING)

Oh, oh, sì, sì. (CHUCKLING)

(GIGGLING) Shall we take her home?

(GRUNTING)

Oh.

Well, I think you did it.

You just officially had the worst date ever.

Oh, tell me about it.

Don't worry. It can only get better from here, right?

But if it doesn't, you can always borrow my dart gun.

Had to use it on one or two dates myself.

Yeah, you know, as far as dates go, I think I'm good with just the one.

(CHUCKLING)

Well, good night, partner.

This was fun.

Yes, surprisingly it was.

Oh and uh, just between you and me, you look much better bald.
