A string of inadvertent losses deems relocation a necessary evil. Antarctica, theoretically, seems a good idea. What mischief could they possibly get into here? Very little, it appears, and with no master to please, 1968 brings the onset of depression among the minions.
A valiant young minion, Kevin, proposes a plan for his people. They will rise, they will serve and, with their purpose fulfilled, they will find happiness.
The unintentional trio of Kevin, Stuart and Bob are to be the gallants who save the minions.
Yes, the minions have returned -- once again desiring to serve the world's most despicable creatures. Convenient timing, one may argue.
Affable, amusing and adorable might not appear to be a logical resume for evil, yet a little unorthodox activity could be just what Scarlett is looking for.
This unusual combination provides plenty of laughs, unintented disasters and, we hope, eventual triumph. I suppose, to verify their successes, you will have to be privy to their escapades.
It's time to reaffirm or to discover your love for these charming wee individuals.
