Shrek 2 (OC Insert)

Chaos In The Factory

Puss and Lillo climbs up the shelves and stops at a glowing green vial.

Shrek: "What do you see?"

Puss: "'Toad Stool Softener?'"

Donkey: "Oh yeah, right, I'm sure a nice BM is the perfect solution for marital problems!"

Lillo: "Let's try something else."

Puss and Lillo continue to climb up and stop every so often.

Lillo: "'Elfa Seltzer?'"

Shrek: "Uh-uh."

Puss: "'Hex Lax?'"

Shrek: "No! Try 'handsome.'"

Puss: "Sorry. No handsome."

Lillo stops at a row of potions kept behind a glass display case.

Lillo: "Oh wait! How about 'Happily Ever After?'"

Shrek: "Well, what does it do?"

Lillo: "It says 'Beauty Divine.'"

Donkey: "You know in some cultures, donkeys are revered as the wisest of all creatures. Especially us talking ones."

Donkey, not paying attention to the door, doesn't notice a worker and Jerome staring at them.

Shrek: "*gasps* Donkey!"

Donkey looks back and Jerome and the worker run off. Donkey runs back to Shrek and the door shuts.

Shrek: "That'll have to do. We've got company!"

Lillo: "Puss, I'll need help with the glass case!"

Puss nods before he hops over next to Lillo and uses his claw to cut a hole in the glass.

Donkey: "Can we get on with this?"

Puss tries to pull out the Happily Ever After potion, but the hole he made is too small for it to fit.

Shrek: "Hurry!"

Puss tries to force the potion through and the glass starts to crack. It shatters as the bottle is pulled out, sending Puss and Lillo flying. Donkey manage to catch the falling potion with his mouth.

Shrek: "Nice catch, Donkey!"

Puss lands on his feet and Shrek catches Lillo on time.

Puss: "Finally! A good use for your mouth."

An alarm sounds and red lights flash. At the doorway, a metal gate starts to lower down.

Shrek: "Come on!"

Shrek grabs Donkey as Lillo grabs Puss and dives under the gate. Puss reaches back for his hat just before the gate slams shut. A group of elves run in with rapid-fire crossbows and shoot at them. Shrek, still carrying Donkey and Lillo, still holding Puss, dodges the arrows and jumps onto a conveyer belt. They continue to dodge the arrows as they climb over various wooden machinery. Shrek tips over a giant cauldron, filled with a potion, and the substance spills onto the floor. The elves run away as Shrek and Lillo jump up and grab onto two pulley system that leads back to the entrance. The potion splashes over a cage of two geese and turns them into ballerinas. Two workers are caught in it and are transformed into a clock and a candelabra. Another group of fleeing elves are turned into doves. Shrek, Donkey, Lillo and Puss reach the end of the room and jump onto the catwalk. Later, the potion has dried up and Fairy Godmother shouts at the doves.

Fairy Godmother: "I don't care whose fault it is. Just get this place cleaned up!"

Doves: "Yes, Godmother."

Fairy Godmother: "And somebody bring me something deep fried and smothered in chocolate!"

Reginald and Prince Charming come bursting through the doors behind her.

Reginald: "Mother!"

Fairy Godmother: "Charming. Sweethearts. Well, this isn't a good time, pumpkins. Mama's working."

Prince Charming: "Whoa, what happened here?"

Fairy Godmother: "The ogre and some cervitaur, that's what!"

Prince Charming: "Wait, an ogre and a cervitaur?"

Reginald: "What?! Where is he, Mom?"

Reginald pulls his sword out from its sheath and starts swinging it around as Prince Charming backs up.

Reginald: "I shall rend his head from his shoulders! I will smite him where he stands! He will rue the very day he stole our kingdom from us!"

Bird poop lands on his shoulder, making Prince Charming snicker a bit.

Reginald: "Oh, was that amusing to you, brother?"

Prince Charming: Only a little, it's sweet that you do this little cute charade before it goes downhill.

Reginald: "Your lucky that I can't kill you here and now just because of your the Prince to Princess Fiona."

Prince Charming clenched his hand a bit before he walked off elsewhere.

Fairy Godmother: "Oh, put it away, Reggie! He's still going to be king. We'll just have to come up with something smarter."

Jerome, who is now a dove, flies over carrying a clipboard.

Jerome: "Pardon. Um...e-everything is accounted for, Fairy Godmother. Except for one potion."

Fairy Godmother takes a look at the clipboard.

Fairy Godmother: "What? Oh... I do believe we can make this work to our advantage."

They walk/fly away as Prince Charming sighs, relieved that they left the room.

Jerome: "Charming sir. It seems like you have something on your mind."

Prince Charming: "I have no idea what you're talking about Jerome."

He walk over to the giant cauldron and sees that the pidgin's are lifting it back up slowly. Prince Charming walks up there and grabs a rope before he starts pulling.

Jerome: "I mean that ever since last night, your mood is somehow different. Just like a few days ago when you returned with a smile on your face."

Prince Charming: "Well maybe, it's because I was happy to hear that Fiona is married to another."

Jerome: "Then why are you doing this thing that you're in, the deal of marrying the princess when you don't want her?"

Prince Charming: "I just... *sighs* I have to, so that my brother doesn't abuse the power that the royals have. And my mother thinks it's the best for me."

Jerome: "For yourself or for her?"

Jerome flys away as Prince Charming gets lost in thought. He then sees a familiar flower on the ground and hops down towards it. He picks it up and stares at it with thought before he walks away offscreen.
