The scene changes to King Harold as he's pouring tea into two cups on a tray. He reluctantly pours the contents of the Love Potion into one of the cups. Out from the cup comes a magical dust in the shape of heart, which then dissipates. He pushes open a door, carrying the tray of tea, and sees Fiona staring out of a window.
King Harold: "Darling? Ah. I thought I might find you here. How about a nice hot cup of tea before the ball?"
Fiona: "*sighs* I'm not going."
King Harold: "But, but, but the... the whole kingdom's turned out to celebrate your marriage."
Fiona: "There's just one problem. That's not my husband. I mean, look at him."
Fiona gestures out the window at Reginald on the red carpet, who is playing up to the crowd.
King Harold: "Yes, he is a bit... different, but people change for the ones they love. You'd be surprised how much I changed for your mother."
King Harold sets the tray down on the window sill.
Fiona: "Change? He's completely lost his mind!"
King Harold: "Darling, why not come down to the ball and give him another chance? I mean, you might find you like this new Shrek."
Fiona: "But it's the old one I fell in love with, Dad. I'd give anything to have him back."
Fiona reaches for one of the tea cups, but King Harold quickly grabs it instead.
King Harold: "Uh, darling. That's mine. Decaf. O-otherwise I'm up all night."
Fiona takes a sip from the other cup and smiles.
Fiona: "Thanks."
King Harold smiles back but looks distressed.
