After Gru left Eduardo's mansion with the girls, Eduardo unlocked trapped Kevin to find Gru. The next day, he broke into Gru's house which scared away Kyle and frightened Margo Agnes. When he is about to eat Agnes' unicorn toy, Agnes screamed loudly which stunned Kevin and some stuff in the house was demolished. While Margo and Agnes reached Gru's laboratory safely and meeting with Edith, Kevin fell into the laboratory from the top. However before he proceeds to attack, he is reverted back into a normal minion by Dr. Nefario, using the PX-41 Antidote.

Minions

Halfway on the boat, Kevin notices Bob's stomach rumbling and whimpering. Stuart begins to lick Kevin, but is disgusted and spanks several times. Bob then sucks on Kevin's head and he pushes both them. And they made it to New York City. The minions' coat was too heavy and hot. And they were looking for something to separate for three minions, but they finally found their legendary denim suits - overalls. And just right for Kevin Stewart and Bob.

During Villain-Con, he starts to fantasize about Scarlet Overkill declaring him and the trio as the best henchmen that could ever exist; after Bob wins Scarlet's challenge, he introduces himself, Stuart and Bob to her as the Minions.

In London, he is given a Lava Lamp Gun by Herb Overkill to steal the Queen of England's crown, Kevin manages to sneak the Minions into the Tower of London, but are stopped by Beefeaters. Luckily, Stuart successfully changes their behavior, but they are soon stopped by the old Blind Tower Guard. Soon, the crown is taken away and used by the Queen Elizabeth II, so they follow the queen's carriage and eventually crash in a nearby park. Succeeding Bob's coronation, he is seen playing Polo and Cricket at the Buckingham Palace. When Scarlet finds out what has happened, he offers the crown to her, despite this, he is still sent to be tortured. He, Stuart and Bob escape from the torture chamber, and arrive at Scarlet's coronation, but the later two accidentally drop a chandelier over her. Scarlet, mad, sends other villains to persecute them. Kevin is the only minion who manages to escape and later finds Queen Elizabeth II in a bar.

Subsequently being threatened by Scarlet on the news to kill his friends, Kevin runs to her castle to find a way to save them, he activates Herb's ultimate weapon, and enlarges himself; this later helps to save Stuart and Bob. The villainess faces the giant Kevin, shooting numerous bursts from the Lava Lamp Guns on her dress but missing Kevin, Stuart and Bob. She sights the Minion tribe and shoots at them, cutting off their escape. As she prepares to finish them off, however, Kevin is able to punch her through two buildings and into a third, temporarily knocking her out. She recovers and manages to send a missile at the Minion tribe, but Kevin catches and swallows the missile and tries to stop the Overkills from escaping, seemingly sacrificing himself to blow them up. He survives the explosion and reverts to his original size but his clothes don't, so he's merely in his underwear and his denim overalls act as a parachute. He eventually he bumps into Lord Nelson's statue, which stops him.

At the end, Kevin is knighted by Queen Elizabeth; seeing how a young Gru stops Scarlet from stealing the crown once again, he and other minions start to call him their "new boss" and chase Gru towards the movie's end.
