The scene opens from Shrek's eyes as women can be heard whispering.

Maiden #2: "Look look look, I told you he was here. Look at him! Look at him!"

Maiden #1: "Shh! Quiet!"

Maiden #2: "Look at him!"

Shrek groans. A woman laying down, staring at him, comes into focus.

Jill: "Good morning, sleepyhead."

Shrek shouts and sits up. Three women are sitting beside him, and one of them is holding Puss in her arms.

Jill & Maidens: "Good morning!"

Maiden #2: "We love your kitty!"

Shrek: "Oww... my head..."

Jill: "Here, I fetched a pail of water."

Shrek: "Thanks."

Shrek looks at down at his hands and gasps, noticing they are now human hands. He grabs the pail of water and looks at his reflection. He is now a handsome, human man. He gasps and drops the pail onto the floor. He starts to feel his new body.

Shrek: "Oh...! A cute, button nose? Thick, wavy locks? Taut, round buttocks?! I'm... I'm..."

Jill and Maiden #1 latch onto Shrek.

Jill: "Gorgeous!"

Maiden #1: "I'll say."

Jill: "I'm Jill. What's your name?"

Shrek: "Um... Shrek."

Jill: "'Shrek?' Wow... are you from Europe?"

Maiden #1: "You're so tense!"

Jill: "I want to rub his shoulders."

Maiden #1: "I got it covered, thanks."

Maiden #2 joins in.

Maiden #2: "I don't have anything to rub!"

Jill: "Well, get in line."

Lillo: "Shrek? *gasps* Is that you?"

Shrek turns his head towards Lillo and is shocked to see that he is now also human.

Shrek: "Lillo? You're a human!"

Lillo: "Wait, I am? *sees a nearby shard and looks at himself before gasping* oh my goodness, I am a human."

Shrek: "Wait, where's Donkey?"

Donkey: "Who are you calling donkey?!"

Donkey stands in the doorway, who is now a white stallion.

Shrek: "Donkey? You're a-"

Donkey: "A stallion, baby! I can whinny! *whinnies* I can count!"

Donkey starts to trot around outside.

Donkey: "Look at me, guys! I'm... trotting! That's some quality potion! What's in that stuff?"

Puss: "'Oh, don't take the potion, Mr. Boss, it's very bad.' Pah!"

Lillo: "Wait a minute, Puss could you hand me the bottle please."

Puss: "Of course."

Puss picks up the discarded potion bottle and hands it to Lillo, who now sees a label at the bottom of it and reads it.

Lillo: "Warning: Side effects may include burning, itching, oozing, weeping. Not intended for heart patients or those with... nervous disorders."
