- Look. It's a banana. - Move over.

Yum yum. Huh?
Finding a Boss was easy.
But keeping a Boss... therein lies the problem
Nope, it wasn't easy for these guys.
But they never gave up.
With the emergence of the stone age came the rise of a new species.
Man was very different from the dinosaur.
He was shorter, hairier and way, way smarter.
The minions took an instant liking to Man and helped him as best they could.
Poor man. So trusting, so fragile, so-so delicious.
Their quest for a boss put the minions front and center for some of the civilization most historic moments.
Ancient Egypt held great promise.
Okay!
But it didn't last long.
Hmm. Oh.
Here. Yup.
The dark ages were actually fun times.
Their new master had a tendency to party all night and sleep all day.
Ahem. Yoo-hoo.
Oh.
But eventually the party is over.
They bounce from one evil master to another.
But they never seemed to find their perfect fit.
