** Later on in the movie, Angie is captured by the mob, and after Lino threatens to eat Angie if Oscar doesn't surrender, Lenny (disguised as a dolphin), fake-eats her.\\
'''You'd Expect''': That Oscar, after having Lenny fake eat Angie, send him out of the room to let Angie out. Lenny genuinely hates the taste of fish, so much so that it causes him to vomit. Plus, none of the sharks have any idea that it's Lenny, and are assuming it's just a dolphin, so it's not like they're expecting anything.\\
'''Instead''': He decides to do a long, drawn out dance to taunt Lino as he seemingly no longer has power over him.\\
'''Naturally''': Lenny vomits up Angie (along with some other stuff), and Don Lino is tipped off that not only is Lenny still alive, but he now has more of a reason to kill Oscar.

'''The Result''': His parents are horrified and are forced to banish him for committing genocide. The Soothsayer is also horrified and guilty about what her scrying indirectly caused. Also, as the Soothsayer predicted, [[SelfFulfillingProphecy Shen only seals his fate own by trying to prevent it]]. While the surviving pandas go into hiding in the mountains, in a village that has snow and altitude as a defense, a mother panda hides her baby in a radish crate and dies leading the wolves away. This baby happens to end up in a noodle shop in the Valley of Peace and turns out to be a natural kung fu master. The Soothsayer later saves Po when Shen hits him with cannon fire and gives him the pep talk he needs to go and stop Shen.

'''Even Worse''': At one point in the movie, Megamind uses the dehydration gun to pacify three criminals who were close to revealing the truth about him, making the decision to not use it on them even worse.\\
'''You'd Expect''': That Megamind get them all alone and use the dehydration gun on them to pacify them. At this point, they aren't aware that Megamind has turned good, and still trust him entirely. It would be extremely easy to just talk to them alone and use the gun on them. Plus, since the gun doesn't need to cool down, he could do it even easier.\\
'''Instead''': This idea never occurs to Megamind, and he remains content with stalling them until they eventually decide to launch Metro City to space.\\

** The above leads into a What an Idiot moment for the Go Fish Gang. They decide to attend the party after being texted an invite by the Doom Syndicate, with the intent to out Megamind as a good guy.\\
'''You'd Expect''': That the gang simply text back the Doom Syndicate that Megamind was a good guy now. Megamind had no idea that the Go Fish Gang were being invited, and this would've been a perfect time for the gang to get the drop on Megamind.\\
'''You'd Also Expect''': That the gang go to the party, and tell the Doom Syndicate directly what was going on.\\
'''Instead''': They never tell the Doom Syndicate that he's good, and instead go to the party to take on Megamind directly.\\
'''As a Result''': Megamind is able to hold off the Go Fish Gang, and eventually pacify them with the dehydration gun.

'''You'd Expect''': That Megamind remember that earlier, the prison malfunctioned and that it wouldn't hold them for very long. Knowing that, he could finally use the dehydration gun to take them out, since they're all together in one place.\\

'''You'd Expect''': Derek to stay with Susan. Dating/being married to a GiantWoman who helped save the city could have potentially made him even more famous than he already is. For that matter, while Susan is initially looking for a way to return to her normal size, he could convince her to stay as Ginormica; not just to ensure his fame, but also to continue helping people, a conclusion she eventually comes to anyway. It's not like Susan wouldn't listen to him, as she says he was all she could think about the whole time they were separated. You'd think a man with a big ego would have been excited to hear that.\\
