Dialogue

[Shrek sneaks up on a mob about to enter his swamp]

First villager: Think it's in there? All right, let's get it!

Second villager: Whoa, hold on! Do you know what that thing could do to you?

Third villager: Yeah, it'll grind your bones for its bread.

Shrek: Yes. [exposes himself] Well, actually, that would be a giant. Now, ogres - oh, they're much worse. They'll make a suit from your freshly peeled skin! They'll shave your liver, squeeze the jelly from your eyes! Actually, it's quite good on toast.

Third villager: [waves his torch in front of Shrek] Back! Back, beast! Back! I warn ya! [Shrek calmly licks his fingers and extinguishes the torch like a match] [he smiles nervously] Right.

[silence]

Shrek: [roars ferociously until the villagers stop screaming; quietly] This is the part where you run away. [the villagers do so] [laughs] And stay out!

Old Lady: [moves Donkey's lips] I can talk. I love to talk! I'm the talkin'est damn thing you ever saw.

Captain: [annoyed] Get her outta my sight.

Shrek: [to Donkey] WHY...are you following me?

Donkey: I'll tell you why. [shows Shrek his p###s] I have a p###s!

Shrek: Stop f###ing! Well, it's no wonder you don't have any friends.

Donkey: Wow! Only a true friend would be that truly honest.

Shrek: Listen, little donkey. Take a look at me, what am I?

Donkey: Uh... [looks Shrek up and down] Really tall?

Shrek: No! I'm an ogre! You know, "Grab your torch and pitchforks!" Doesn't that bother you?

Donkey: [shakes his head happily] Nope.

Shrek: [surprised] Really?

Donkey: Really really.

Donkey: [eyes the KEEP OUT signs surrounding Shrek's home] I guess you don't, uh, entertain much, do you?

Shrek: I like my privacy.

Donkey: Y'know, I do too! That's another thing we have in common. Like I hate it when you've got someone in your face, you try to give 'em a hint, they won't leave, and then there's that big awkward silence, you know... [silence ensues] ...Can I stay with you?

Shrek: Uh, What?

Donkey: Can I stay with you... please?

Shrek: Of course!

Donkey: Really?

Shrek: No.

Donkey: Please! I don't wanna go back there! You don't know what it's like to be considered a freak! [slight pause; Shrek gives Donkey a look] Well, maybe you do. But that's why we gotta stick together! You gotta let me stay! Please, please!

Shrek: Okay! Okay. But one night only.

Donkey: This is gonna be fun. We can stay up late, swappin' manly stories, and in the mornin', I'm makin' waffles!

Shrek: Ohh!

Donkey: Where do, uh, I sleep?

Shrek: OUTSIDE!

Lord Farquaad: [sees Thelonius dunking the gingerbread man in milk] That's enough! He's ready to talk. [puts him down; Farquaad laughs, then signals for the table to lower] Run, run, run, as fast as you can; you can't catch me, I'm the Gingerbread Man!

Gingy: You're a monster.

Lord Farquaad: I'm not the monster here. You are. You and the rest of that fairy tale trash, poisoning my perfect world. Now, tell me! Where are the others?!

Gingy: Eat me! [spits at Farquaad]

Lord Farquaad: [grunts] I've tried to be fair with you creatures, but now my patience has reached its end! Tell me, or I'll--

[he reaches to pull off one of Gingy's buttons]

Gingy: No! Not the buttons! Not the gumdrop buttons!

Lord Farquaad: All right, then, who's hiding them?!

Gingy: Okay! I'll tell you. Do you know the muffin man?

Lord Farquaad: The muffin man?

Gingy: The muffin man.

Lord Farquaad: Yes. I know the muffin man. Who-- Who lives on Drury Lane?

Gingy: Well, she's married to the muffin man.

Lord Farquaad: The muffin man?!

Gingy: THE MUFFIN MAN!

Lord Farquaad: She's married to the muffin man.
