Despicable Me

In the final episode of Don't Despise Me, Geoffrey articulates the point of these Despicable Me movies while discussing how Felonious Gru ended up with his adopted family, the lengths and breadths of ambition in a lifetime, and how to disregard the establishment to succeed by your own rules. At times enthusiastic, other times stumbling, episode 6 sends off the series in a way that poses more questions than answers.
