Transcript
[Chris's segment starts at 00:25:04 and ends at 00:26:19]
Chris: This is Christine Chandler, I'll be depicting scene 23.
As Shrek enters the ring, the crowd cheers.
Shrek: "Yeaaaauuuuuh! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuugh! Daaaaaaaaaaugh!" [Chris groans]
Chris: The bad guy— I forget his name— communicates to the armed forces and Shrek becomes a bit offended and Donkey is scared...?
Knight: "Shall I give the orders, sir?"
Farquaad: "No, I have a better idea. People of Duloc, I give you our champion!"
Chris: The crowd cheers.
Shrek: "What?"
Farquaad: "Congratulations, ogre, you have won the honor of going on a... great... and noble....... quest..."
Chris: ...says that guy, I forget his name still.
Shrek: "I'm already on a quest! A quest to get my swamp back!"
Farquaad: "Your swamp?"
Shrek: "Yeah! My swamp! Where you dumped those fairytale creatures."
Farquaad: "Okay. All right, ogre, I'll make you a deal. Go on this quest for me and I'll give you your swamp back."
Shrek: "Exactly the way it was?"
Farquaad: "Right down to the last slime-covered toadstool."
Shrek: "And the squa-terrs?"
Farquaad: "As good as gone."
Shrek: "What kind of... quest?"
Chris: And I guess that's it for scene 23 of Shrek.
[Chris inhales sharply through his nose, then the next segment of the film plays.]
