[Shrek and Donkey move through the spooky keep. Shrek's wary. Donkey's very nervous]
Donkey: [whispers; nervous] You afraid?
Shrek: [not whispering] No, but... Shh.
[Shrek walks away, Donkey suddenly notices he's gone and runs to catch up]
Donkey: Oh, good. Me neither. [gasps]
[Donkey catches up then hears a noise off-screen]
Donkey: 'Cause there's nothin' wrong with bein' afraid. Fear's a sensible response to an unfamiliar situation. Unfamiliar dangerous situation, I might add. With a dragon that breathes fire and eats knights and breathes fire, it sure doesn't mean you're a coward if you're a little scared. I sure as heck ain't no coward. I know that.
[Donkey falls suddenly into a pile of knight bones and armor. Donkey gasps. A helmet falls onto Donkey's head. Shrek removes the helmet and puts it on himself]
Shrek: Donkey, two things, okay? Shut... up. [points] Go over there and see if you can find any stairs.
Donkey: Stairs? I thought we was lookin' for the Princess.
Shrek: The Princess will be up the stairs in the highest room in the tallest tower.
Donkey: How do you know that?
Shrek: I read it in a book once.
[Shrek walks away]
Donkey: Cool! You handle the dragon, I'll handle the stairs!
[Shrek moves away, down a corridor. Donkey watches him go, then heads the other way]
Donkey: Oh, I'll find those stairs. I'll whip their butt too. That's right. Those stairs won't know which way they're goin'. [walks off]
[Donkey is still talking to himself as he looks around the room]
Donkey: I'm gonna take drastic steps. Kick it to the curb. Don't mess with me. I'm the stair master. I've mastered the stairs. I wish I had a step right here. I'd step all over it.
[On Shrek at other end of the corridor. Through a window, he can see a slender tower wrapped in a staircase and connected to the keep by a bridge]
Shrek: [to himself] Well, at least we know where the princess is. But where's the--?
[On Donkey, who finds himself eyeball to eyeball with the dragon. Donkey runs away]
Donkey: DRAGON! [screams and dodging Dragon's tail]
[Shrek turns to see Donkey headed for him at a gallop, a fireball right behind him. Donkey races past. Shrek follows]
Shrek: Donkey, look out!
[Donkey screams. Shrek grabs Donkey and jumps out of the fireball's way, saving Donkey. They run into the tall tower. A beat. They shoot out again, Donkey leading the way, another fireball chasing them. Shrek leaps to one side and lets the fireball rocket past, Donkey runs onto the bridge then flattens himself. The fireball passes over him, singeing the tuft of tail. On the Dragon roaring. It takes off after Donkey. Shrek leaps from the tower, landing on the dragon's huge tail]
Shrek: Got ya! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
[The dragon whips its tail, sending Shrek hurtling right through the wall of the tower. Shrek crashes through the stone wall and lands outside a bed chamber, semiconscious]
