[Shrek shows Donkey some star constellations]
Over there. That's Throwback, the only ogre ever to spit over three wheatfields.
Hey, can you tell my future from these stars?
Well, the stars don't tell the future, Donkey, they tell stories. [points] Look, there's Bloodnut the Flatulent. [grins] You can guess what he's famous for!
Alright, I know you're makin' this up.
No, look. There he is, and there's the group of hunters running away from his stench.
Ah, that ain't nothin' but a buncha little dots!
Y'know, Donkey, sometimes things are more than they appear. [pauses, then indicates himself] Hmm? [pause] Ah, never mind.
Our swamp?
Y'know, when we're through with rescuin' the princess and all that stuff.
We? Donkey, there's no "we". There's no "our". There's just me and my swamp. And the first thing I'm gonna do is build a ten-foot wall around my land.
[looks hurt]
You cut me deep, Shrek. You cut me real deep just now. [cheerful again] Y'know what I think? I think this whole wall thing is to try and keep somebody out.
No! Y'think?
Are you hidin' something?
Never mind, Donkey.
Ooooh, this is another one of those onion things, isn't it?
No, this is one of those "drop it and leave it alone" things.
Why don't you wanna talk about it?
Are you blocking?
I'm not blocking!
Yes you are.
Who are you trying to keep out? Just tell me that, Shrek. Who?
OH, FOR THE LOVE OF PETE!
What exactly is your problem, Shrek? What you got against the world, huh?
I'm not the one with the problem, okay? It's the world that seems to have a problem with me. People take one look at me and go "Arrrgh! Help! Run! A big stupid ugly ogre!" [sighs, feeling sad] They judge me before they even know me. That's why I'm better off alone.
Yeah, I know.
So... [looks back at the stars] are there any donkeys up there?
Well, there's Gabby the Small... and Annoying.
Oh yeah, I see him. That big shiny one there, right?
That's the moon.
