* Gru's first real "[[PapaWolf dad]] [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments moment]]" at Super Silly Fun Land. The girls enter a game for a giant stuffed unicorn, and actually hit the target in their second attempt, but are denied as it wasn't [[ExactWords knocked over]]. Then Gru steps in...

* Meme it may have become, but you have to admit, Gru's announcement of his "crime of the century" to the Minions is pretty impressive, especially with him rising on a platform and being silhouetted against the full moon.
-->'''Gru:''' Next, we are going to steal...! (''to himself'') [[LampshadeHanging Pause, for effect...]]
-->(''The skylight opens, revealing Gru's target:'')
-->'''Gru:''' ''THE MOOOOON!!''
-->(''The Minions cheer wildly'')
-->'''Gru:''' And once the Moon is mine, the world will give me ''whatever I want'' to get it back! And I will be ''the greatest villain of all time!!''

* Gru has several, but an especially noteworthy one is when he breaks into Vector's Fortress in an attempt to get Margo, Edith and Agnes back from him (doubling as Heartwarming). This involves [[SuperReflexes jumping over and around]] a series of heat-seeking missiles, [[MisguidedMissile tricking them into blow up the fortress wall for him]], [[UnflinchingWalk marching into the hole they made]] with one hell of a DeathGlare on his face, and then smacking Vector's [[ThreateningShark pet shark]] with an ''OffhandBackhand''.

** Possible retroactive FridgeBrilliance: The main reason the Minions had to find new masters over and over is because they kept killing them. This time, they ''prevented'' their master's death.

** Keep this in mind. When Gru tried to break into this fortress to steal the shrink ray, he was subjected to a long, painful series of tortures, most of them reappearing here as well. [[ItsPersonal When Vector took the girls]], after getting the missiles to hit Vector's own front door, [[PapaWolf Gru]] [[TookALevelInBadass just]] ''[[UnflinchingWalk walked in]]''.

* The Minions, who have been portrayed as about ditzy and scatterbrained, managed to do something just awesome! Well, technically one Minion, but if he could do it, so could the others. They are capable to hacking in government records, to change Gru's personal records. Why is this awesome? Because it was during the moment when Gru was talking to Miss Hattie! The Minions are just AWESOME!

** That moment could also double somewhat as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}.

** That moment could also double somewhat as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}.
** Just before that, Gru delivers this threat to Vector (via door camera):

--->'''Vector:''' [[SarcasmMode Ooooh, I'm]] ''[[SarcasmMode really]]'' [[SarcasmMode scared!]]

* The Minions forming a ChainOfPeople to save Gru and Margo.
** Possible retroactive FridgeBrilliance: The main reason the Minions had to find new masters over and over is because they kept killing them. This time, they ''prevented'' their master's death.
* Gru is surprisingly adept at disco [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Om4OURddRo dancing.]]
** [[FridgeBrilliance Considering how behind the times he is, is it really that surprising?]]

They are capable to hacking in government records, to change Gru's personal records. Why is this awesome? Because it was during the moment when Gru was talking to Miss Hattie! The Minions are just AWESOME!
* Vector may be a real {{Jerkass}}, but the way this guy kept Gru from getting inside his house was not only very hilarious, but very impressive.
* Mr. Perkins managing to intimidate Gru of all people. Makes you wonder what he was like or would be like as a nasty super villain talking to their younger, and probably stronger henchman.
* Gru, Nefario, and the Minions building a working rocket - without the support of the bank.
* The part where the girls jumped over to Gru, most notable was when Margo tried to jump over. It TRULY redefined [[Series/KamenRiderDenO Climax Jump]].
* It may be small in comparison, but the fact the girls were able to sell so many cookies in a single day is impressive for their age.
* Another small moment, but when the girls are getting berated by Miss Hattie for not meeting their quota, the fat jerk at one point gives them a glare. Both Margo and Agnes look away in fear, but Edith? She doesn't even flinch, and even rolls her eyes when Miss Hattie turns away.
* Marlena (Gru's mother) shows off her martial art skills at her introduction.

* Margo getting Gru to do whatever she needs him to do for her and her sisters. Simply by explaining what will happen (i.e., won't sell cookies, stay up all night bugging him, etc.) if he doesn't do so.
