Product Information

Fiona: You know, we kind of got off to a bad start yesterday and I wanted to make it up to you. I mean, after all, you did rescue me. Fiona: My only chance to live happily ever after is to marry my true love. Don't you see, Donkey? That's just how it has to be. Fiona: Hey, wait. What are you doing? You know, you should sweep me off my feet out yonder window and down a rope onto your valiant steed.

Donkey: Hmm? With Shrek? You think --who, whoa, wait a sec. You think that Shrek is your true love? Shrek and Fiona are now joined in matrimony in Shrek's swamp. Among the attendees are the fairytale creatures once banished to the swamp, as well as a few Duloc Guards. Shrek and Fiona walk down the aisle to their awaiting carriage, which is made of a giant onion. Fiona tosses her bouquet which both Cinderella and Snow White try to catch. They end get into a cat fight and Dragon catches the bouquet instead. Donkey looks nervous, but Shrek and Fiona give him reassuring looks. Gingy has been mended somewhat and now has one leg and walks with a candy cane cane. Lord Farquaad: Brave knights! You are the best and brightest in all the land, and today one of you shall prove himself better and brighter than all the rest. Donkey opens the door to the windmill and steps in. The abandoned windmill is filed with shadows and cobwebs. All is quiet and Fiona is nowhere to be seen)Donkey: All right, all right. Calm down. Look, it's not that bad. You're not that ugly. Well, ok, I ain't gonna lie. You are ugly. But you only look like this at night. Shrek's ugly 24/7. Lord Farquaad: I'm not the monster here, you are. (throws one leg at Gingy) You and the rest of that fairy tale trash, poisoning my perfect world (crumbles his other leg into dust) Now, tell me! Where are the others?!

Fiona: "By night one way, by day another. This shall be the norm... until you find true love's first kiss... and then take love's true form." Hours have passed and Fiona has calmed down. She hangs limply while Shrek carries her and Donkey walks behind them)Shrek points to her last piece of food. Fiona, expecting a different question, removes the weedrat while Shrek is annoyed by the words that couldn't come out. Fiona hands it to Shrek and he grabs onto her hand. The two slowly lean towards each other. Donkey interrupts the moment) Lord Farquaad: Silence! I will make this Princess Fiona my queen, and Duloc will finally have the perfect king! Captain, assemble your finest men. We're going to have a tournament! (grins evilly)

Lord Farquaad: Congratulations, ogre. You've won the honor of embarking on a great and noble quest. Fiona goes inside the windmill, gives Shrek a look, and closes the door. Donkey looks at Shrek with a new eye) Lord Farquaad: That champion shall have the honor-- no, no -- the privilege to go forth and rescue the lovely Princess Fiona from the fiery keep of the dragon. If for any reason the winner is unsuccessful, the first runner-up will take his place. And so on and so forth. Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make. The mirrors flips through each princesses' portrait. The guards shout out different numbers while Lord Farquaad frantically tries to decide) Later that night Shrek and Donkey are sitting around a campfire. They gaze up into the sky as Shrek points out certain star constellations to Donkey)Donkey rips a flower off a nearby bush, which happens to be a blue flower with red thorns, and takes off running)
