Once upon a time, a long time ago...
a king and a queen had a beautiful daughter...
named Fiona.
But she was possessed by a terrible curse.
By day, a lovely princess.
By night, a hideous ogre.
Only true love's kiss could lift her curse.
So Fiona waited in a tower, guarded by a dragon...
until the day when her true love would arrive.
But as the days turned into years...
the King and Queen were forced to resort...
to more desperate measures.
- Yah! - (Neighing)
(Horses snorting)
- Hah! - Hyah!
(Gates creaking)
(Meowing)
(Kiss)
Oh.
- (Plays Dueling Banjoes) - (Spit)
COACHMAN: Whoa.
I don't know about this, Lillian.
Fairy Godmother said only true love's kiss...
could break Fiona's curse.
I don't trust that woman, Harold.
This may be our last hope.
Besides, he does come highly recommended by King Midas.
But to put our daughter's life in the hands of this... person?
He's devious. He's deceitful.
He's, he's...
Rumpelstiltskin!
(Thunder crashes)
(Honk)
(Squeaky kiss)
Mrs. Highness.
Uh, how... how do you do?
(Hissing)
Down, Fifi. Get down!
As you can see, everything's in order.
So you'll put an end to our daughter's curse?
And in return, you sign the kingdom of Far Far Away...
- over to me. - (Thunder)
(Hiss)
Lillian, this is madness!
What choice do we have, Harold?
Fiona has been locked away in that tower far too long.
It's not like she's, uh, getting any younger.
But to sign over our entire kingdom?
Well, if your kingdom's...
worth more to you than your daughter...
Nothing is worth more to us than our daughter.
Jump, Fifi, jump!
- (Twang) - Oh.
Just sign it, and all your problems will disappear.
Ah...
Your Highness! The Princess!
She's been saved!
(Both gasp)
Huh?
Oh. Who saved her?
RUMPEL: No one would have guessed...
that an ogre named Shrek...
whose roar was feared throughout the land...
would save the beautiful Princess Fiona.
(Groans) True love's kiss led to marriage and ogre babies!
The kingdom of Far Far Away was finally at peace.
Oh, goody for them!
And they lived happily ever after!
Oh! (Grunting)
Uh, sir? You're gonna have to pay for that.
Uh... Oh.
Maybe we can make a deal for it, little boy?
Oh, I'm not a real boy.
Do you want to be?
- (Thud) - Ah!
(Grunts)
Nobody needs your deals anymore, Grumpel Stinkypants!
(Groans)
(Coughs)
I wish that ogre was never born!
(Birdsong)
(Toy squeaking)
- (Squeaking) - (Children laughing)
Wake up, Daddy, wake up!
- Good morning. - Good morning to you.
(Belching)
- Better out than in. - Hey, that's my line.
- (Giggling) - Did my little Fergus make a...
whoa... big, grownup ogre stink?!
Oh, that's diabolical!
Whew!
GNOME: And on your left, the lovable lug...
that showed us you don't have to change your undies...
to change the world!
(Groans)
GNOME: I wonder what Shrek's up to in there.
Get in there. Get... Impossible to put on!
OK, the dragon goes under the bridge, through the loop...
and finally, into the castle.
- (Raspberries) - (Shrieks)
(Sighs)
- Play date! - Ahh!
♪ Winter, spring, summer or fall ♪
♪ All you got to do is call ♪
Then Shrek kissed the Princess.
She turned into a beautiful ogre and they lived...
- ...happily... - ...ever...
- ...after. - (Cheering)
Look, a shooting star!
So, what did you wish for?
That every day could be like this one.
Aw, come here, you.
(Squeaking)
- Morning, Daddy! - (Giggling)
Morning.
(Belch, belch, fart)
Better out than in.
(Laughing)
Did my little Fergus make a...
(Laughing)
(Gargling)
Cute. Real cute.

(Sighs)
Shrek! The outhouse is clogged up!

(Snoring gently)
Roar.
(Hushed) Roooaar!
(Sighs)
(Children whooping)
Oh!
Ohh!
(Children cheering)
Nice landing, baby.
Hey, now remember, don't eat the valet.
Happy birthday, niños!
Vamos a la fiesta!
(Grunting)
- MAN: Hey, Shrek, Shrek! - (People shouting)
Oh, Mr. Shrek, would you sign our pitchforks?
And our torches?
Oh, man, you used to be so fierce!
Yeah, when you were a real ogre!
A real ogre?
(Cheering)
Come on, Shrek, it's a sing-along.
You've got to sing along!
- No, thanks. - Please?
I'll be your best friend.
Why does being your best friend entail me doing...
- everything I don't want to do? - (Squeaking)
Please, Felicia, not in Daddy's ear.
Excuse me, Mr. Shrek?
Could you do that ogre roar of yours for my son?
He's a big, big fan.
- Do the roar. - You know, I'd rather not.
It's my kids' birthday party.
Do the roar.
Uh, honey, why don't you go check on the cake?
- Sure. - And don't forget the candles.
(Sighs)
Hold still.
Thanks for the pants, Muffin Man.
I always wanted chaps!
Yee-haw! Giddy up!
- Ah, Monsieur Shrek. - Howdy, Shrek!
Your cake. Voilà!
Oh, what is that supposed to be?
That's Sprinkles the Ogre!
Isn't he cute? He looks just like you.
But happy. It's a party, Shrek... you gotta cheer up!
I'm in a great mood actually.
Oh, I'm gonna lick me a rainbow!
Donkey!
As long as you're not doing anything...
how about one of those famous Shrek roars?
Do the roar.
Let me set you straight, Butter Pants.
An ogre only roars when he's angry.
You don't want to see me angry, do you?
Do it.
Hold it together. Just hold it together.
Daddy, he's getting away. Do somethin'.
Oh, good.
(Gasps) What happened to the cake?
Trust me... it's an improvement.
- You licked it! - No.
Just because you're an ogre...
doesn't mean you have to eat like one.
Looks like you forgot the candles!
- Dah! - OK, just watch the cake.
- I'll go get them. - Watch the cake?
Ah! Where's the cake?!
- We ate the cake. - What?!
- (Wailing) - No, don't cry. Shh.
Hey! I believe you promised my son a roar.
- Do the roar. - Ah. "Roar."
- I don't like it. - Pigs, we need another cake.
But we ate the other cakes.
- (Wailing) - Come on, man, one roar.
Hey, everybody, Shrek's going to do his famous ogre roar!
Not now, Donkey.
Pigs, are there any cupcakes?
- We ate them, too. - They have lollipops.
- No, I ate them. - What? You didn't share?
Well, you didn't share all the croissants!
Everything's going to be OK.
Shrek, what's going on?
- Come on, Shrek, your fans are waiting! - Do the roar.
We need the cake!
(Whizzing, banging)
- (People shouting) - Cake! Cake! Cake!
Rooooaar!
(Grunts, breathes heavily)
- BOY: Heh-heh. - (Cheering)
I love you, Daddy.
Everybody, I have found another cake!
(Chanting) Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!
Shrek? Are you OK?
(Yells)
(People gasping)
Blah.
- Uh-uh. - (Plate smashes)
(Shrek yells)
Unbelievable.
Tell me about it! Those villagers...
I'm not talking about the villagers, Shrek...
I'm talking about you.
Is this really how you want to remember...
the kids' first birthday?
Oh, great. So this is all my fault?
Yes. But... (Sighs) You know what?
Let's talk about this after the party, at home.
You mean that roadside attraction we live in?
"Step right up! See the dancing ogre!
"Don't worry! He won't bite!"
I used to be an ogre.
Now I'm just a jolly green joke!
OK, OK, maybe you're not the ogre you used to be.
But maybe that's not such a bad thing.
Oh, I wouldn't expect you to understand.
It's not like you're a real ogre.
You spent half your life in a palace.
And the other half locked away in a tower.
(Sighs) Look, all I want...
is for things to go back to the way they used to be!
Back when villagers were afraid of me...
and I could take a mud bath in peace.
When I could do what I wanted, when I wanted to do it!
Back when the world made sense!
You mean back before you rescued me...
- from the Dragon's Keep? - Exactly!
Shrek, you have three beautiful children...
a wife who loves you...
friends who adore you.
You have everything.
Why is it the only person who can't see that is you?
(Lively shouting inside)
That's just great.
(Honking, munching)
If she thinks I'm going to slink back there and apologize...
she's got another thing coming.
She's not the boss of me.
I'm an ogre, and I'm not going to apologize for acting like one.
RUMPEL: Help, please!
Someone, anyone! Oh! Help me!
Please, help! Ahhh.
Please, help!
- (Honking) - I'm stuck! Oh, help!
Oh, please, help!
Someone, anyone! Oh! Help me!
The pain!
I can see a bright light. A tunnel!
Grandma? Is that you?
Yeah, it's me, Granny.
An ogre!
Oh, please, Mr. Ogre, please don't eat me!
I'm not going to eat you.
But you are an ogre... aren't you?
Yeah, well, I'm... I used to be.
Look, move out or get crushed.
So, uh, you're not going to eat me?
No, thanks. I already had a big bowl...
of curly-toed weirdo for breakfast.
Hey, wait up!
What's your rush? Where you going?
- Nowhere. - (Gasps) What a coincidence!
I was just heading that way myself. Ha!
But seriously, let me give you a ride.
I insist. Come on.
It's the least I can do after all you've done for me.
(Distant thunder)
I got a hot rat cooking.
(Honk)
All right! So, can I interest you in a mudslide? Slug and tonic?
A liquid libation to ease that frustration, huh?
Eyeball-tini?
Well, maybe just one.
- (Honking) - SHREK: So the centaur said...
"That's not the half I'm talking about."
(Both laugh)
I got to say, Shrek, I envy you.
To live the life of an ogre... no worries, no responsibilities.
You are free to pillage and terrorize as you please.
Free?
Oh, that's a laugh.
Oh, yeah?
Sometimes I wish I had just one day...
to feel like a real ogre again.
Well, why didn't you say so?
Magical transactions are my specialty! Come on!
Oh, great. Next to mimes...
magicians are my favorite people.
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. Hold on.
(Mutters) "King For A Month." "Knight For A Week."
Oh. Ah!
"Ogre For A Day".
Think about it, Shrek... to be feared and hated.
You'll be like, "Roar!"
And the villagers will be like, "Ah! Get away from me!
"It's Shrek! I'm so scared of him!"
It'll be just like the good old days...
when your swamp was your castle.
When the world made sense.
All right, what's the catch?
Catch? No. (Chuckles)
There's no catch. No catchings, really.
I mean, there's something, a small thing, nothing.
- Little thing. - All right, I knew it.
So what do you want?
- A day. - A day.
- (Ting) - Ooh, rat's done!
Well, to make the magic work...
you got to give something to get something.
In this case, you got to give a day to get a day. That's all.
I can't just pick up and leave my family.
Oh, but that's the best part, Shrek!
It's a magical contract.
No one will even know you're gone.
And by the time this day is up...
you are going to feel like a changed ogre.
Still, I don't know.
Hey, no problem. Forget it. No big D.
Ah, doesn't matter.
Hey, do you like white meat or dark meat?
So what day would I have to give up?
Oh, I don't know, any day.
A day from your past.
How about the day you had the flu?
A day you lost a pet? A day some meddling oaf...
stuck his big nose where it didn't belong...
destroying your business and ruining your life?!
(Breathing heavily)
Just for an example.
Well, how about the day I met Donkey?
Now there's a day I'd like to take back. (Laughs)
Ha-ha-ha. I don't know who that is.
Ah, I know. What about a day you wouldn't even remember?
Like a day when you were a baby.
An innocent, mindless little baby.
Take any of those days you want.
Take them all, for all I care.
Oh, just one will do.
OK, good. A day from your childhood it is.
I guess there's nothing wrong...
with wanting a little time for myself.
It's just 24 tiny little hours.
- I'm still my own ogre! - Yeah, you is!
I never needed to ask for anyone's permission before.
So why start now, huh?
Go on, Shrek.
Sign it! (Grunts)
- Go on, Shrek. - (Fifi honking)
Sign it, Shrek! Sign it!
Oh. You signed it.
So, tell me.
What happens now?
Have a nice day. (Laughs)
Ah! Ah! Whoa.
Uh...
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Oh!
Whoa!
(Screams)
(Grunts)
(Groans) I think I fell on my keys.
GNOME: There are 40 children in that giant shoe...
which is why the weasel goes pop to this very day.
Oh, great.
And as we head over the river...
and through the woods, we come across...
- Ogre! - (Screaming)
(Screaming continues)
(Laughs)
Ah.
Kill the ogre! Kill the ogre!
- (Laughs) - (Bell tolling)
You may now kiss the bride.
(Laughs)
This is the part where you run away!
(Laughs)
(Sighs)
Oh. (Chuckles)
Well, sure is great to be wanted again.
(Chuckles)
Ooh, nice one. (Chuckles)
(Sighs)
Fiona?
Oh, no.
My home.
Fiona!
Fiona! Are you in there?!
(Grunts)
(Squeaking)
All right, Rumpel!
This wasn't part of the deal!
Rumpel!
(Whoosh)
Ogre!
(Witches laughing)
We've got another one, ladies!
Get him!
(Shrieking, laughing)
Who are you?! What are you doing in my swamp?!
(Screams)
Looks like a troublemaker!
(Laughs)
(Witches cackling)
(Coughing)
(Grunts)
Spread 'em!
Whoa!
Ohh!
WITCH: Nice job, ladies.
Take him in.
Whoa!
(Grunts)
You witches are making a big mistake!
I know my rights!
You have the right to shut your mouth!

"E-I-E-I-No!" That's what I said.
Where are my babies?
And where's your wife, Dragon?
Look, ogre, I think you must have me confused...
with some other talking donkey.
I've never seen you before in my life.
Never seen me before? Come on, Donkey!
Hey, and how do you know my name, anyway?
It's me, Shrek.

Ha! A donkey and an ogre friends?
That's the most ridiculous thing I ever heard!

Can you at least tell me where they're taking me?
To the same place they take every ogre...
to Rumpelstiltskin.

Ladies, this is the guy that made...
- all this possible! - (Witches cheer)
So, tell me... how are you enjoying your day?
All right, Rumpel, what's going on?
What have you done?
Oh, no, Shrek. It's not what I've done.
It's what you've done. Thanks to you...
the King and Queen signed their kingdom over to me.
They would never do that.
They would if I promised them...
all their problems would disappear.
(Rumpel laughs)
And then they disappeared!
(Harold gasping)
Oh! Oh!
(Both scream)
Ah, they would have done anything...
if they thought it would end their daughter's curse.
I ended Fiona's curse!
How could you when you never existed?
You better start making sense, you dirty little man!
Here, let me spell it out for you!
You gave me a day from your past...
a day you couldn't even remember. Oh-ho-ho.
A day when you were an innocent, mindless little baby.
(Hums tune to Happy Birthday To You)
You took the day I was born.
No, Shrek. You gave it to me.
Enjoy this while you can, Stiltskin...
- because when this day is up... - But-But-But-But...
you haven't heard the best part.
Since you were never born...
once this day comes to an end...
so will you.
(Witches laughing)
Where's Fiona?
- Where's my family? - Ha!
Silly little ogre.
You don't get it, do you?
You see, you were never born.
You never met Fiona.
Your kids don't exist.
(Laughter)
How's that for a metaphysical paradox?
(Laughter)
Looks like you got exactly what you wanted!
Happy Ogre Day!
Rumpel!
- Oh! Oh! - (Roars)
Get him! Get him, witches!
(Witches screaming)

Flip-flop Fridays.

Oh!

- Come on, girls! - (Shrieking, laughing)
Lock all the doors, you worthless witches!
Do it!
I'll be right back, Donkey!

I don't know him!

I've never seen an ogre cry.
I'm not crying.
It's nothing to be ashamed of. I mean, I cry all the time.
Just thinking about my grandma...
or thinking about baby kittens...
or... or my grandma kissing a baby kitten...
or a little baby grandma kitten.
(Sobs) That is so darn sad.
I said, I'm not crying!
Hey, take it easy, I'm only trying to help.
It's none of my business why you're upset.
By the way, why are you upset?
I was tricked into signing something I shouldn't have.
Oh, you signed up for one of them time-shares, huh?
No.
I signed this.
(Gasps) You should never sign a contract with Rumpelstiltskin!
Yeah, I got that.
- His fine print is crafty. - I know.
- His exit clauses are sneaky. - Yeah. I...
What did you say?
I'm talking about the exit clause.
Used to be you had to guess his name...
but now everybody knows who Rumpelstiltskin is.
Donkey, I've read the fine print...
and there's nothing about an exit clause in here.
Well, you didn't expect him to make it easy for you.
Here, let me show you how it's done.
I didn't spend all that time around them witches...
without picking up a few tricks.
Your tiny little ogre brain couldn't begin to comprehend...
the complexity of my polygonic foldability skills.
What are you doing?
Hey, I can't get my origami on unless you back off.
Thank you. OK, here's what you got to do.
You got to fold this piece here...
make this letter match up here...
and bring this corner here like this...
and if you do it just right, it will show you what to do.
There!
"Try Lou's Bliss".
- Man, who's Lou? - Give me that!
"True Love's Kiss".
Hey. Boy, you gonna have to take me to dinner first.
(Sighs) "According to fairy-tale law, if not fully satisfied...
"true love's kiss will render this contract null and void."
Donkey, you did it!
Oh, look at you!
If Fiona and I share true love's kiss, I will get my life back!
OK! This isn't a petting zoo!
So where is this Fiona?
Well, that's just it, you see. I don't know.
You know, when I lose something...
I always try to retrace my steps.
So, uh, where did you leave her last?
The last time I saw her...
I told her I wished I'd never rescued her.
Oh, no.
Shrek?
Shrek!
Shrek, no, wait! Wait, Shrek!
What, are you crazy? That's the Dragon's Keep!
They keep dragons in there!
(Screams)
OK, yeah, fine! Go ahead!
I'm gonna just hang back here and find us some breakfast!
(Breathing heavily)
Fiona!
Oh, no.
If I didn't save Fiona...
then who did?
This is the favor Fiona was supposed to give me...
on the day we met.
It's a symbol of our love.
Now smell it!
Hey, man, get that dirty old favor out of my face!
Your nose is the only chance I have...
of tracking down my wife...
so stop complaining and start smelling.
Smell it! Get it! Away you go, girl!
Do I look like a bloodhound to you?
In case you haven't noticed, I'm a donkey, not a dog!
If I was a dog, they'd call me Dog, not Donkey!
And another thing...
(Sniffs) Wait a minute.
(Sniffs) I think I got something.
(Sniffs) Whatever it is, it's sweet.
Fiona.
Luscious and tasty.
Hey! That's my wife you're talking about.
Donkey!
(Sniffing)
Yeah! Waffles!
And I thought the Waffle Fairy was just a bedtime story.
Sticky stacks of golden, syrupy deliciousness!
Donkey!
Don't eat that!
There's a stack of freshly made waffles...
in the middle of the forest.
Don't you find that a wee bit suspicious?
- Hmm-mm. - Oh, you're gonna... I'm just...
What are you... Bad Donkey!
- Mm-hmm! - Mustn't.
I said, don't! Don't!
No! Get away from it.
- You did. - Mmm.
Ah! Uh-oh.
Oh.
Look out!
(Screams)
- Donkey! Are you OK? - Ow!
I'm fine.
(Screams)
Uh... Donkey.
(Grunts)
DONKEY: Help! Help me!
Help, Shrek!
Help! Ow!
(Ogres calling out)
- Watch your head. - Hey, it's a new guy!
Look at him. All dressed up in his Sunday vest.
- He's really tiny, isn't he? - Yeah.
Fate has delivered us a comrade-in-arms...
and for that we are thankful.
- Suit him up! - Let's go, greenie.
Now wait a minute!
(Grunting)
Ooh! Ohh!
- Hey! - Here you go.
(Grunting)
- Yah! - (Roar)
- (Ogres cheer) - Welcome to the resistance.
Resistance?
We fight for freedom and ogres everywhere!
(Deep, hornlike sounds)
(Cheering)
I didn't know we could do that.
DONKEY: Help! Help me!
You can't eat me! I got the mange!
I'm poisonous! I'm all poi...
- Mmph! - I'll take him!
This order's to go.
Hey, I haven't even removed his giblets yet.
- (Shriek) - Trust me...
you don't want to eat this one.
I go down smooth, but I come out fighting!
- (Grunting) - Let go!
- Don't make Mama mad. - Your dinner is my friend!
- Come on, guys! - I got to get the giblets out!
- (Higher horn sound) - She's back.
Fiona!
Oh! I'm so happy I found you!
(Low groan)
(Jeering, laughter)
Maybe you missed orientation, but for future reference...
personal space is very important to me.
You don't know who I am, do you?
No.
Brogan, I have news from Far Far Away.
Gather the others and meet me in the war room.
- Fiona... - Gretched, make sure...
everyone is prepared to move out tonight.
- I need to talk to you. - What is it?!
OK. I know you don't remember me, but...
we're married. Hear me out.
And at the birthday party with some pigs and a puppet...
the villagers wanted me to sign their pitchforks...
and this boy kept saying, "Do the roar, do the roar."
Then I punched the cakes that the pigs ate...
and the next thing I knew...
my donkey fell in your waffle hole.
Right?
Who's with me?
Whoa. I guess I must have kicked him...
- harder than I thought. - (Laughter)
- Fiona, I need to... - (Ogre mimicking crow calls)
Witches! All right, everyone, you know the drill!
- Fiona! - DONKEY: Witches! Oh, no!
- Witches! Witches! - Come on now.
(Distant whooshing)
(Muffled whimper)
Fiona, that's the third patrol today.
We can't hide forever.
Trust me, Brogan. After tonight, we won't have to.
That's your wife?
That's my wife.
Well, I see who wears the chain mail in your family!
(Sighs)
Some people like to look at the goblet as... as half empty.
Me, I like to look at it...
- as half full. - (Murmurs of agreement)
We've gone from the bottom to the top, ladies.
But we're not just an empire.
- We're a family. - Oh.
Everyone's got their cupcake?
Cupcake, cupcake? Good. Yes? Baba?
- Ooh. - Good.
Oh, yeah, you know, we have put away a lot of ogres.
And so one got away. Who cares?
It's not a big deal.
It doesn't matter to me.
It's not like it's the end of the world.
(Murmurs of agreement)
Except... funny thing.
Now that I think about it...
the ogre who got away is Shrek!
And if he shares a kiss with Fiona by sunrise...
well, it is the end of the world!
Our world! My empire!
(Honking)
(Sighs) But, as I was saying...
I like to look at the goblet as half full.
(Witches whimpering)
Yelling makes me so parched.
Would anyone care for some water?
Wet your whistle?
A clear, crisp, delicious glass...
of agua purificada?
Anybody's thirsty? Nobody's thirsty? No?
Well, then, does anyone care to tell me what it's going to take...
to get this ogre? You.
- Faster brooms? - No!
- Pointier hats? - No! You!
Maybe we could hire a professional bounty hunter?
Ah!
- (Sizzling) - What a world! What a world!
Hmm. You know, actually, not a bad idea.
- Baba! - (Yelps)
I need a bounty hunter.
And if music doth soothe the savage beast...
(Chuckles) ...then I think I might know just the person!
FIONA: Listen up, everyone.
Word has come from Far Far Away.
Stiltskin is leading tonight's ogre hunt himself.
- What? Why? - He's never done that before.
- I bet that's because of us. - Shh!
If that cupcake-eating clown...
finally leaves the safety of his filthy witch nest...
he'll be vulnerable.
The plan's simple.
If they follow the usual patrol route...
they'll reach the river by midnight.
We'll be concealed along this road...
waiting for his caravan.
Once they reach the clearing, I'll give the signal.
And then we attack.
And when the smoke clears...
Wait, what's this?
That's my chimichanga stand.
Um, no, Cookie. We won't be needing that.
Trust me, Fiona...
y'all gonna be really hungry after this ambush, OK?
Now go and finish your little speech.
All right, as I was saying, when the smoke clears...
Rumpelstiltskin is gone...
and the chimichangas have been eaten...
Far Far Away will finally be free.
- And so will we. - Spread the word...
we move out as soon as Rumpel leaves the palace.
(Animated chatter)
- Man, this is serious! - Tell me about it.
How am I ever going to get her to kiss me before sunrise?
Actually, I was talking about the revolution.
Revolution? Tsh!
Why don't you just tell her what you told me?
You know, about how you're her true love...
and you came from an alternate universe.
Oh, well, while I'm at it, why don't I tell her...
that you're married to a fire-breathing dragon...
and you have little mutant donkey-dragon babies.
I do?!
You saw what happened. She's gonna think I'm crazy.
- (Croak) - I'm a daddy?
You know what? If I got Fiona to kiss me once...
then I can do it again.
Shrek, do my babies have hooves or talons?
Donkey, shh!
Hello?
Fiona?
(Purring)
You should not be here, señor.
Puss?
- (Creaking) - (Grunting)
Hah!
You've got to be kidding me.
(Claws scraping)
(Grunts)
(Straining)
Gah! (Grunts)
Feed me, if you dare.
Puss, what happened to you?
You got so fa...
...fancy.
- Do I know you? - Well, where's your hat?
Where's your belt?
Your wee little boots?
Boots? For a cat? Ha!
- (Laughs) - But you're Puss in Boots.
Maybe once.
But that is a name I have outgrown.
That's not the only thing you've outgrown.
Hey, I may have let myself go a little since retirement...
but hanging up my sword was the best decision of my life.
I have all the cream I can drink and all the mice I can chase.
(Lapping)
Ah, I'll get him later.
Oh, Puss, what have I done to you?
You've gone soft.
Well, I do get brushed twice a day.
(Sighs)
Look, it's not too late to fix it.
All you have to do is help me get a kiss from Fiona.
- What are you doing? - What... Hey!
Can I help you with something?
Well, I know how stressful mounting a rebellion can be...
rallying the troops, planning the attacks...
so I brought you a little something...
to ease the tension.
A gift basket?
You're welcome. So, let's see what you got.
Heart-shaped box of slugs.
- (Squelching) - Ooh. Skunk-scented candle.
(Sniffs) Mmm!
- This really isn't the ti... - And, ooh, what's this?
Coupons!
Let's see. "Good for one free foot massage".
"A mud facial"!
Oh, and here's one... "Good for one free kiss".
Let's cash it now.
Look, I don't know what this is all about...
but I'm trying to run a revolution.
So unless you have...
Rumpelstiltskin's head in there...
I suggest you take your gift basket...
get out of my tent and go make yourself useful!
Wow. You're right.
I am sorry.
I was just trying to be friendly.
No hard feelings?
An apologetic hug?
And a quick kiss good-bye.
- Ow! - (Crunch)
Ahh! Wait! Is that mistletoe I see?
- Ahh! - (Thud)
Hey, Shrek! Are my babies cute...
or do they make people feel uncomfortable?
Where did we find that guy?
Could it be true?
Have the years of prim and pampery made me... soft?
Don't be silly.
Now who's a pretty kitty?
I am.
(Honking)
Daddy thinks you look real nice, Fifi.
(Honks)
Honk.
All right, piggies, be gone!
And don't forget to take her little potty box with ya.
- (Snap) - Oh!
This little piggy wants to go home!
Mr. Stiltskin! He's here.
Nice.
(Elaborate flute playing)
(Squeaking)
Pied Piper.
How was your commute?
(Flurry of notes)
- Ah. Good. - (Laughs)
You call this guy a bounty hunter?
What's he gonna do, flute those ogres a lullaby?
(Witches laughing)
(Plays repeating melody)
What? Oh, n... Oh! Oh!
OK, got it! Oh! Ooh!
Oh, make it stop!
- (Laughs) - (Shrieking)
RUMPEL: All right, that's enough.
(All gasping for breath)
Looks like it's time to pay the piper.
(Panting)
Griselda, seriously, it's time to pay the piper.
Now go get my checkbook!
Go! Move! Get out!
Things are getting real sloppy around here!
(Chatter)
OK, now, make sure they eat up!
You can't end tyranny on an empty stomach! Go on now!
Go!
- Din-din! - (Cheering)
- Come on, Donkey. - One more time, please?
All right, all right, but this is the last time.
(Squelching)
Here it comes. Look at him. Look at him.
(Snorts)
(Laughter)
I see you!
♪ These eyes have seen a lot of love ♪
♪ But they never want to see another one ♪
♪ Like they had with you ♪
That's quite a friend you've got there.
I can see why you haven't eaten him.
Donkey! I hate to pull you away from your adoring public...
but I'm not getting anywhere with Fiona.
- I need your help. - COOKIE: Hey, everybody.
- Who wants dessert? - OGRE: Oh, me, me!
(Excited chatter)
- Where'd you get these? - Fiona's garbage.
Just another gift from some clueless lover boy.
(Laughter)
That's a good one, Cookie!
Anyone who knows Fiona...
knows this stuff ain't gonna work on her.
- Works on me. - (Laughter)
Donkey, what am I gonna do? It's like I don't even know her.
Yeah, you in trouble, Romeo...
because the only thing that Fiona cares about...
- is her cause. - To the cause!
To the cause!
(Whooping, cheering)
(Clunk)
(Whirring)
(Clicking)
(Twang)
Hello!
(Screams)
- Nice moves. - What are you doing?
What does it look like?
I'm getting ready for ambush action. Oh, yeah.
I always like to quad my lutes...
and do some scrunches...
before an operational... op.
This one taken?
We use that to clean the toilets.
Ah.
And we use that one to clean...
the thing we clean the toilets with.
I knew that.
There you go, chief.
Whoa.
Oh, heh.
Whoa.
(Laughs)
Oh! Hey!
Ohh!
Hey, um... Scott?
Heh. My name is Shrek, actually.
You're going to get yourself killed at the ambush tonight.
I'll be fine.
I think I can take care of myself.
- (Chuckles) - Well, let's see about that.
Hey! Hey! Hey!
What the...
Yah!
Ow.
Fiona?
(Groans)
Ho-ho.
(Both laugh)
(Grunting)
(Both laugh)
I got it.
Give me your hand.
The dragon goes under the bridge, through the loop...
and finally...
Into the castle.
Wow.
OK. Good.
It seems like you can handle yourself.
But, Fiona...
Now go get ready for the mission!
- I will, but, Fiona, if I can... - That's an order!
(Grunting, ogres shouting)
BROGAN: All right, let's get those axes sharpened...
and those weapons packed!
Remember, preparation is half the battle!
(Panting)
Ogre! Ah!
Un momento, un momento!
(Gasping) Ogre, ogre, un momento!
(Wheezing, panting)
Just give me a minute.
Look, Puss, I'm a little pressed for time.
I am not believing what I have just witnessed.
Back there, you and Fiona.
There was a spark... a spark inside her heart...
I thought was long extinguished.
It was as if, for one moment...
Fiona had actually found her true love!
I am her true love.
I ended her curse.
You know of her curse?
"By day, one way, by night another.
"This shall be the norm.
"Until you find true love's first kiss...
"and then take love's true form."
You even know the little rhyme!
It is true! You are the one! You must prove it to her!
- How? - Convince her!
Go to her when she is alone...
and tell her something that only her true love would know.
Know about what?!
(Yowls)
(Hisses)
Whoo, that's a whole lot of kitty!
Shrek, can we keep him?
Excuse me. Coming through!
Pardon me, guys!
Yeah. Watch your back.
Look, Donkey, the chimichanga cart!
Quick! Andale, ándale, ándale! After him, burro!
Come on, Donkey, vámonos!
Man, you are a cat-astrophe!
And you are ri-donkey-lous!
(Both laugh)
I'll scout ahead. Wait for my signal.
Secure your positions!
It's quite a view from up here.
What are you doing?! Get back in position!
You need to know once and for all who I really am.
You are going to ruin everything!
Ruin everything? Actually, I'm going to fix everything...
the ogres, Rumpel...
your curse.
How do you know about my curse?!
OK, OK. Please, Fiona...
just hear me out.
I can explain everything.
- Where's Fiona's signal? - What's she waiting for?
- He's going to get away! - No, he's not.
(Fluttering sound)
(Shrieking)
(Ogres roaring)
(Ogres gasp)
(Flute note)
Listen, I don't know who you are...
or how you know about my curse...
but if any of these ogres find out that I'm a...
A beautiful princess?
That is not who I am! Not anymore.
Look, I know you're upset.
You don't know anything about me.
I know everything about you.
I know you sing so beautifully that birds explode.
Big deal.
I know that when you sign your name...
- you put a heart over the "i". - So what?
I know that when you see a shooting star...
you cross your fingers on both hands...
squinch up your nose and you make a wish.
I know that you don't like...
the covers wrapped around your feet...
and I know that you sleep by candlelight...
because every time you close your eyes...
you're afraid you're going to wake up back in that tower.
But most importantly, Fiona...
I know that the reason you turn human every day...
is because you've never been kissed...
...well...
...by me.
(Flute playing in distance)
(Grunts)
Ha. You move fast.
It's not me doing the moving.
- (Both grunting) - SHREK: Huh?
- Why is this happening?! - Love?
- No, I'm being forced to dance! - By love!
No, I can't stop myself!
Please! Make it stop!
I can't... control myself!
(Grunts, wails)
Whoo, yeah!
Cookie's bringing the heat out of the kitchen! Tss! Mm!
Yeah! Hoo-hoo!
FIONA: Oh, no! It's the Piper!
I can't believe I let this happen!
And it's all because of you!
If you had just let me kiss you!
What? You're insane!
FIONA: Oh!
We must do something before they fandango themselves...
into oblivion!
- What can we do? - First, you must stop dancing!
When somebody tooties that flutey, I got to shake my booty!
Then it's up to me!
(Screams)
Hurry! We must get them away from the music!
Puss and Donkey to the rescue!
We saved the day!
(All screaming)
- (Fiona sighs) - (Chuckles)
(Groaning)
(Straining)
Ahem. Uh, Donkey...
can I borrow your tongue?
Say what?!
Uh-uh. No. Hell... (Chuckles, mutters)
I don't care how big your eyes get, player, it's not going down.
Hmmm.
Ohhh...
all right!
SHREK: Stop!
- Where are you going? - FIONA: To save my friends.
How? By getting yourself killed?
If that's what it takes.
Puss, say something.
- Puss? - Let me explain.
So that's how you knew so much about me.
Fiona, wait!
- Kiss me. - What?
It's the only way to save your friends.
- Get out of my way. - You used to believe...
that a single kiss could solve everything!
I don't understand.
This doesn't make any sense.
True love's kiss was supposed to fix everything!
Yeah, you know what? That's what they told me, too.
True love didn't get me out of that tower.
I did. I saved myself.
Don't you get it?
It's all just a big fairy tale.
Fiona, don't say that. It does exist!
And how would you know?
Did you grow up locked away in a dragon's keep?
Did you live all alone in a miserable tower?
Did you cry yourself to sleep every night...
waiting for a true love that never came?!
But...
But I'm your true love.
Then where were you when I needed you?
Maybe you kissed her wrong?
No.
The kiss didn't work...
because Fiona doesn't love me.
(Ogres yelling)
Don't despair, fellow ogres!
They can put us in cages, but they can't cage our honor!
(Flurry of notes)
Shrek and Fiona are together?!
(Flurry of notes)
Yeah. I've heard enough of your toot-a-lee-toot-too-toots!
You blew it!
Uh, Wolfie! My speech wig.
Baba! Ready my makeup.
And, Piper, pull my socks up.
- (Simple melody) - Whee. Tight.
Attention, citizens.
Please stay tuned for a message...
from our tyrannical dictator!
(People groan)
Hello, people. It is I, Rumpelstiltskin...
shepherd of your dreams.
(Coughing)
Recently, a certain somebody...
has jeopardized our joyous lives.
And that somebody is the rat-munching ogre...
called Shrek!
That is why I come to you, dear citizens.
For whomever brings me this ogre...
shall receive...
- the deal of a lifetime. - (♪Enya: Orinoco Flow)
Just think of it! Total and complete happiness.
Ja.
Dazzling, radiant fulfillment!
All your greatest wishes.
- Yeah! - Your wildest dreams.
Anything you could ever want!
No strings attached!
Oh!
But hurry... this is a limited time offer.
So light your torches, sharpen your pitchforks...
and get your mob on!
- (All shouting) - Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!
It seems that we are safe.
Yeah, it looks a lot less pitchforky and torchy out there.
- Let's go. - Oh, what's the point?
The kiss didn't work. It's over.
Look, Shrek...
I know things might seem a little bleak right now...
but things always work themselves out in the end.
You'll see. I'll bet by this time tomorrow...
Hey, don't you understand?
There is no tomorrow.
There's no day after that...
and there's no day after that day after that!
My life was perfect, and I'm never going to get it back!
If your life was so perfect, then why'd you sign it all away...
to Rumpelstiltskin in the first place?
Because I didn't know what I had until it was gone!
All right?
(Sighs) I didn't know what I had.
- (Tapping) - (Shrill grunting)
Surrender now! I'm taking you in!
(Grunts) Don't try to fight it, ogre!
The reward is mine!
Gingy?
- You unhand me, green devil! - What are you doing?
- Collecting my bounty! - PUSS: Bounty?
What are you talking about, cracker?
Rumpelstiltskin promised the deal of a lifetime...
for whoever can bring you in.
Deal of a lifetime?
Where all your wishes come true.
Wait a minute.
I can still fix this.
Now how you gonna do that?
You know what? I'm going to give Rumpelstiltskin...
exactly what he wants.
OK, Gingy, tell me about this...
(Munching)
Oh. Were you going to eat that?
(People murmuring)
RUMPEL: Not Shrek. That is not Shrek.
Also not Shrek.
That's not even an ogre, it is a troll!
Nice try.
- And that... - Roar.
...is just sad.
And what is that supposed to be?
I'm just a frightened old man.
Don't listen to him! These ogres are crafty!
That is your father painted green.
No, it's Shrek! Honest!
Ay! Ow! Take them away!
Can no one bring me Shrek?!
Where is he? How hard can it be?!
I want him! I want him! I want him!
- (Crash) - Stiltskin!
I hear you're looking for me.
(Laughs) All right!
Finally! Who turned him in?
Who gets the deal of a lifetime?
- I do. - What? But...
Well, if I'm turning myself in, I get the deal of a lifetime.
That means you have to give me anything I want.
No, no, no. Only true love's kiss can break your contract...
so if you thought you were just gonna...
doo-ta-doo-ta-doo in here and get your life back...
I'm not here to get my life back.
Then what do you want?
The ogres... they are all free.
But where is Shrek?
PUSS: This is not good.
RUMPEL: I don't know... not much of a storybook ending.
The noble Shrek turns himself in...
to save a bunch of filthy ogres.
All that matters is that they're free...
and Fiona is safe.
Aw, I bet Fiona would be really touched to hear that.
But, hey...
I guess you can tell her yourself.
- (Witches laughing) - Fiona!
- (Chains clanking) - (Both grunting)
Look at... (Laughs)
Stiltskin, we had a deal!
You agreed to free all ogres!
Oh, yeah.
But Fiona isn't all ogre, is she?
"By day, one way, by night, another."
Blardy, blardy, blar.
(Laughs)
Nobody's smart but me!
That was a really brave thing you did, Shrek.
Thank you.
No, you were right.
I wasn't there for you.
And not just at the Dragon's Keep, but...
every day since.
Well...
you're here now.
Let go of me! I've got to save Shrek!
Don't be a fool, mule!
She's right.
Rumpel's palace is locked up tighter...
than Old Mother Hubbard's Cupboard.
And even that cupboard wasn't guarded by a whole bunch of...
mean, ugly, nasty witches.
Hey! We can hear you!
Sorry!
We must get into the palace.
Man, Shrek and me just busted out of that place!
But how?
The same way we're gonna bust in.
(Ogres murmuring)
Yay! My new pretty ball!
Didn't it look bigger in the catalogue?
I guess it'll have to do.
Witches, finally...
the moment we've all been waiting for.
The main event of the evening!
I present Shrek and Fiona!
(Witches jeering)
And now...
to put the past behind us once and for all...
I give you a princess's worst nightmare!
Fiona's old flame, the keeper of the keep...
Dragon!

Wha...?

(Roaring)

(Both scream)
Get them, get them, witches!
Incoming!
Donkey, woo her!
Woo who?
Your wife!

(Sniffing)
Uhh...
(Lips squeaking)
(Growl)
Uh-oh.
A-ha-ha! Huh!
(Dragon shrieks)
Whoa-ho!
Oh! I'll call you!
We're in love!

Hey, you!
Whoa!

(Grunts, growls)
(Screaming)
Wha...? Huh?
Oh! Chimichangas?!
Get 'em while they're hot!
(Growling)
FIONA: Jump!
Now!
Whoo-hoo!
The dragon goes under the bridge!
- (Both grunt) - FIONA: Through the loop!
And finally...
BOTH: ...into the castle!
(Dragon groaning)
(Witches screaming)
WITCH: Run!
Foo!
(Gasping)
So long! Ha-ha!
(Honking)
- (Laughs) - Come on, Fifi, go!
Go! Witches, close up the floor!
Come on, Fifi, go!
Flappity flap! Come on, go!
Fly away! Up, up! Go!
- Fifi, no! - (Honking)
(Screams)
Oh. Ohhh.
Victory is ours!
(Cheering)
(Laughter, cheering)
Looks like we're having curly-toed weirdo for breakfast.
Hey, we make a pretty good team.
You have no idea.
- Shrek? - (Groans)
(Grunts)
RUMPEL: His day is up. His day is...
- (Crunch) - Agh!
Shrek?
It's all right.
There has to be something I can do.
You've already done everything for me, Fiona.
You gave me a home and a family.
You have kids?
We have kids.
Fergus, Farkle and a little girl named...
BOTH: Felicia.
I've always wanted to have a daughter named Felicia.
And someday...
- (Squeaking) - ...you will.
You know what the best part of today was?
I got the chance to fall in love with you all over again.
PUSS: Fiona...
the sunrise.
You're still... an ogre!
True love's form.
Impossible!
The kiss worked.
(Whooshing)
(Cracking)
What?!
(Yelling)
- (Honking) - Fifi!
- Oh! - Meow!
Puss!
No! No, no, no, no!
No, not yet! No! I'm not ready!
No, wait! (Screams)
(Roaring)
(Cheering)
I love you, Daddy!
(Chanting) Shrek! Shrek! Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!
Everybody, I have found another cake!
- (Cheering) - FIONA: Shrek? Are you OK?
- Oh, Fiona. - Ooh!
I've never been better.
- FERGUS: Roar! - (Giggling)
(All roar)
Oh.
Happy Birthday, Farkle.
- (Chuckles) - Fergus, my little man!
And Felicia, sweetheart.
I believe this is yours.
(Squeak)
Thank you, Daddy.
Ohhh.
Hey, Uncle Shrek! How about giving my babies an encore!
Please, señor, let us have it!
- (Whooping) - MAN: Do it!
(Hornlike sound)
(Higher horn sounds)
(Cheering)
I didn't know we could do that.
That's my best friend!
(Giggling)
You know, I always thought that I rescued you...
from the Dragon's Keep.
You did.
No.
It was you that rescued me.
(Cheering)
(Excited chatter)
(Shrill singing)
- (Bang) - (Cheering)
(Flute playing)
(Hornlike sounds)
(Shrieking)
Yee-haw! Yeah!
Yummy!
