Gru squints at the shimmering surface of the pit. "This better not be one of your pranks, guys!" he warns, his voice tinged with suspicion. Suddenly, Lucy slips, and both she and Gru tumble into the goo. The minions burst into laughter, revealing it to be harmless red dye.

Margo leads the way with determination. "Come on, we have to reach them before it's too late!" she calls out, her voice unwavering. Doctor Nefario appears, gesturing wildly. "Follow me to the banana boat. It's our best chance!" he exclaims, guiding them with urgency.

El Macho stands at the center of it all, arms crossed and a smirk playing on his lips. "You think you can stop me?" he taunts, as the birds and pigs rally around him. Edith pulls out a slingshot, aiming it with precision. "Time for some birdie reinforcements!" she grins, releasing a volley of stones into the air.

Agnes watches in awe as the pigeons create a whirlwind around El Macho. "Birdies to the rescue!" she cheers, her eyes twinkling with delight. El Macho, caught off-guard, stumbles back, losing his footing in the chaos.

Lucy emerges from the limousine, her hair slightly disheveled but her expression triumphant. "Need a lift?" she jokes, extending her hand to Gru. Gru nods, grinning. "Let's get out of here before things get even more out of hand!"

Margo looks out the window, a sense of relief washing over her. "I think we learned something today," she muses, glancing at her family with affection. Gru chuckles. "Never underestimate the power of a good pigeon," he adds, as laughter fills the cabin, marking the end of their absurd, yet thrilling adventure.
