It's like I always say,

when it comes to good parenting,

you have to be fair but firm.

You just show 'em

that you mean business...

And he's out of bed again, isn't he?

You never have this problem

with sock puppets.

All right, what's this all about?

Voices.

- Voices?

- In here.

Telling me what to do.

You have voices inside your head.

Sometimes.

And what kind of things

do they tell you to do?

The early bird catches the worms!

What's gotten into this kid?

Hey! You're going to...

Maybe you sing him a little song.

Come here, you... Hey!

What the...?

Do I look like the kind of guy

that knows a lullaby?

Sing!

Lullaby and good night

Close your big creepy eyes

If you sleep

Away I'll creep

And get out of here alive

You know, once you get past

all the splinters and rope burns,

he's actually kind of cute.

Now where did he go?

A bird in the hand is worth

two in the bush.

Now there's something

you don't see every day.

Get him off! Get him off!

Come back here, you!

I regret nothing!

I'm too young to have termites!

I'm no termite, Pinocchio.

I'm a cricket.

You were the voice in my head

this whole time?

That's right.

I'm the one who was putting

all those thoughts in your noggin.

I'm your conscience,

and as long as you let me,

I'll always be your...

The end.

That wasn't me.

I never had any bugs in my head.

Ask anyone.

OK, then. Why don't we start

by asking your conscience.

Now who's cheating?

Well, Donkey,

looks like it's just you and me.

Go ahead. There ain't nothing

you can say that can scare me.

Oh, well, I suppose

there's nothing left to do

but sit here in the dark

and wait for the ghost.

Ghost? What ghost?

Farquaad's ghost, of course.

As a matter of fact,

if I remember correctly,

I believe you had a hand

in his untimely demise.

Hey, man. That was an accident.

And besides, all that ghost stuff is

just an urban legend.

- You know that.

- Is it?

OK, OK, that's...

that's just the wind.

Donkey!

And apparently it knows my name.

That's very funny, Shrek.

But I know it's you doing this.

Hey, I'm standing right here

with you, Donkey.

No way. This place is

not haunted by a ghost,

and when the sun comes up,

Donkey will be the new King of...

It's right behind me, isn't it?

- Donkey.

- Oh, my goodness!

Well, that's what I'd call

a "knight" to remember.

What do you say

we scare ourselves up some dinner?

I'd say... grab the kids

and let's get going.

And that's why

we're the Kings of Halloween.

He was so scared. We probably

won't see him for a month.

So, what else have you got

in your bag of tricks?

I've got seven eggs.

Perfect.

I love this holiday.

Oh, very nice!

I am not happy!
