Quote #7

BOB: I'm sorry. This is my fault. I've been a lousy father. Blind to what I have. So obsessed with being undervalued that I undervalued all of you.

It takes a failed rescue mission to a super villain's island hideout, but Bob finally acknowledges his failures as a father. Cue golf clap. By focusing so hard on his own dissatisfaction with his station in life, he prevents himself from appreciating the truly good things: namely, his super-powered fam.

Quote #8

[The family is preparing to fight the Omnidroid]

BOB: I'm asking you to wait with the kids.

HELEN: And I'm telling you not a chance. You're my husband. I'm with you for better or worse.

To drive this message home, the Incredible Family takes on the Omnidroid as a team, with each of them using their powers to contribute to the greater good. More than simply being a action set-piece, this scene shows how close the family has grown over the course of the movie, and how much more accepting they are of each other.

Quote #9

SYNDROME: You took away my future. I'm simply returning the favor. Oh, don't worry, I'll be a good mentor. Supportive, encouraging. Everything you weren't.

Though the family defeats Syndrome's Omnidroid with ease, the baddie has one more trick up his sleeve: an attempted kidnapping of Jack-Jack. This highlights the very real risks that the family will face now that they've become the superheroes they were always destined to be.
