The scene changes to the forest as Donkey and Lillo are walking behind Shrek, who is still carrying Puss. Donkey eyes Puss suspiciously as he whispers into Shrek's ear. Shrek glances back at Donkey.
Shrek: "No, really?"
Shrek and Puss in Boots laugh.
Lillo: "*confused* Uh... I don't get, Shrek what did Puss say?"
Shrek: "Don't bother Lillo, you won't understand much of the joke."
Lillo opens his mouth to say something, but he closes it back up before they walk out into a clearing.
Donkey: "Oh..."
Off in the distance they see a small cottage. Connected to it is a giant factory with colored gases rising out from its chimneys.
Donkey: "Oh, no. That's the ol' Keebler's place! Let's just back away slowly."
Lillo: "What is that place?"
Puss: "That's the Fairy Godmother's cottage. She's the largest producer of hexes and potions in the whole kingdom."
Shrek: "Then why don't we pop in there for a spell? Ha-ha! Spell!"
Shrek chuckles while Puss laughs loudly and they walk on. With an annoyed look on his face, Donkey follows them as Lillo sighs and follows behind too.
Puss: "He makes me laugh!"
The four enter through the front door of the cottage and into a reception area. At the desk sits an elf writing into a book.
Shrek: "Hi. I'm here to see the-"
Elf: "The Fairy Godmother. I'm sorry. She is not in."
Fairy Godmother's voice sounds from a speaker system next to the receptionist.
Fairy Godmother: "Jerome, coffee and a Monte Cristo. Now!"
Jerome: "*sighs* Yes, Fairy Godmother. Right away. Look, she's not seeing any clients today, okay?"
Lillo: "That's okay, mister. We're just visiting from the union."
Jerome: "The union?"
Donkey: "We are?"
Lillo: "Yes! We represent the workers in all magical industries, both evil and benign."
Jerome: "Oh! Oh, right."
Shrek: "Are you feeling at all degraded or oppressed?"
Jerome turns the speaker to face the other way.
Jerome: "Uh... a little. W- w- we don't even have dental."
Shrek: "They don't even have dental. Okay, we're just gonna have a look around. Oh. By the way. I think it'd be better if the Fairy Godmother didn't know we were here. Know what I'm saying? Huh?"
Donkey: "Hmm?"
Shrek: "Huh?"
Donkey: "Huh? Huh? Huh?!"
Lillo: "Donkey, please stop."
Jerome: "*whispers* Of course. Go right in."
Lillo gives a thumbs up to him before the four walk through a door next to the receptionist. From up above on a catwalk, the three look out at the factory. The workers are all elves wearing white hazmat suits. Chemicals are poured into giant vats. Potions are put onto conveyor belts. Ingredients are tested and mixed. Lillo notices a set of doors at the other end of the room with a sign above that reads "Potion Room". They see flashing lights accompanied by booming sounds coming from a doorway to their right. They head inside and walk down a hallway, which leads to another set of doors. They can hear Fairy Godmother behind it as well as the source of the flashes.
