Chapter 1 is the premise, clues, and interactive grid.
Chapter 2 is the solution including some additional story.

Chapter Text

The anniversary of Megamind’s first date with Roxanne is rapidly approaching, and even his incredibly handsome genius is still unsure of how best to celebrate the occasion. What kind of date should they have? Who can help him pull off what will undoubtedly be an ingeniously clever plan? And perhaps most importantly, what gift should he make to show his love for the lovely Miss Ritchie?

Clues

  • Since the disguise watch was a great success, Minion’s been itching for the chance to make more jewelry.
  • Neither Bernard nor Megamind is very good at cooking.
  • The plan that involves skywriting must be done outside.
  • A scrapbook would be best given indoors.
  • A good romantic dinner involves open flames.
  • The perfect gift for a journalist is one that involves facts.
