Comming Soon...
Meanwhile, Shrek has grown tired of his life being a local celebrity and his overwhelming family and friends, as well as the fact he feels he isn’t a “real ogre” anymore. Rumpelstiltskin meets Shrek and offers him a day to feel like a real ogre again, in exchange for a day from Shrek’s childhood. Shrek agrees and signs the contract. Shrek enjoys his day being feared by villagers, but is soon captured by a group of witches and taken to Rumpelstiltskin, the king of Far, Far Away; Rumpelstiltskin took the day Shrek was born for him to become king, and has enslaved the ogre population. Rumpelstiltskin declares that within 24 hours, Shrek, having never been born, will cease to exist altogether.
Shrek is able to escape his confinement and rescues Donkey (Eddie Murphy), who worked as a pack mule. Donkey at first doesn’t trust Shrek and fears him, but eventually becomes friends with the ogre. Donkey is able to deduce by folding the contract paper that the exit clause of Rumpelstiltskin’s contract is true love’s first kiss before the 24 hours run out. The two stumble upon a secret community of warrior ogres led by Fiona, who dismisses Shrek’s attempts to reconcile with her. Shrek also finds Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas), now Fiona’s pet who retired from swordsmanship and is now obese.
Rumpelstiltskin is to lead the nightly ogre hunt throughout the kingdom, and Fiona plans to defeat him along the route. However, Rumpelstiltskin has hired the Pied Piper, who with a magical flute entrances the army of ogres to dance themselves all the way to the castle (to the song Shake Your Groove Thing). Puss and Donkey are able to save Fiona and Shrek. Shrek has by this point all but won Fiona’s heart, but since Fiona doesn’t truly love him, their kiss doesn’t fix the spell. Fiona leaves to save the ogres and the kingdom without Shrek, Puss or Donkey.
Rumpelstiltskin announces to the kingdom that whoever brings him Shrek will get whatever they want with no strings attached. Shrek turns himself in and in return Rumpelstiltskin frees the ogre army. Shrek is imprisoned along with Fiona, since Fiona is a princess by day, she could not go free, but is deeply moved by Shrek's self-sacrifice. The two are to be fed to Dragon, Donkey’s wife in the regular timeline, but Puss, Donkey and the ogres arrive and battle Rumpelstiltskin’s forces.
Shrek and Fiona escape Dragon and defeat Rumpelstiltskin, but the 24 hours have already passed for Shrek, who begins to fade into thin air. Just before he does so, Fiona kisses Shrek, now truly in love with him, and breaks Rumpelstiltskin’s contract and her curse. The alternate reality falls apart and the true timeline is restored with Shrek roaring in his frustration back at the birthday party. After Shrek embraces Fiona again and thanks her for saving him from his old life alone in the swamp, they and all their family and friends including the ogre army, celebrate the ogre babies’ first birthday in a larger party which includes Rumpelstiltskin, now held prisoner and tormented by the Piper. A curtain call follows along with a montage of clips from the past three films: Shrek, Shrek 2 and Shrek the Third.
