Thank you. We've been through-- a lot, haven't we? The barge-- lovers, friends, a bit of madness.

Something you'll have to grow accustomed to. The ones who stay as long as I do have a lot of that to look forward to.

Someday, Megamind, you are going to be much older. I guarantee it. You are even going to die, and you may find yourself with a choice to be in a place such as this, or elsewhere. And after a lifetime of wins, losses, pleasures and pains, you'll find that surmounting new surprises is something akin to muscle memory.

I hope so. It means I'll have lived my life fairly well, I think.
