Red for when she's an enemy of Megamind, purple when she's -- thanks to her interactions with 'Bernard' (and the effect she's having on him) -- a bit more ambivalent towards him, and blue when he's finally managed to win her over.

*** Actually, the first time the warden mentions the life sentences is when he's reading the card that came with "Metroman's" gift. Since Minion sent the watch, he wasn't wrong and the warden confirmed it. The second time the warden was Minion in disguise and says "88". So either Megamind DID earn a few more sentences, and/or he told Minion the right number to put on the card. Or Minion did forget.
