There's only one fellow who can handle

a job like that, and, frankly...

he don't like to be disturbed.

he don't like to be disturbed.

Where could l find him?

Hello?

Who dares enter my room?

Sorry! l hope l'm not interrupting, but

l'm told you're the one to talk to

about an ogre problem?

You are told correct.

But for this, l charge

a great deal of money.

Would... this be enough?

You have engaged my valuable

services, Your Majesty.

Just tell me where

l can find this ogre.

Everyone says

I'm getting down too low

Everyone says

you've just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go

I need some sleep

Time to put the old horse down

I'm in too deep

And the wheels keep spinning round

Everyone says

you've just gotta let it go

Everyone says

you've just gotta let it go

Dear Knight, I pray that you take

this favor as a token of my gratitude.

Dear Diary...

Sleeping Beauty is having

a slumber party tomorrow,

but Dad says I can't go.

He never lets me out after sunset.

Dad says I'm going away for a while.

Must be like some finishing school.

Mom says that when I'm old enough,

my Prince Charming will rescue me

from my tower

and bring me back to my family,

and we'll all live

happily ever after.

Mrs. Fiona Charming.

Mrs. Fiona Charming.

Mrs. Fiona Charming.

Mrs. Fiona Charming.

Sorry. l hope l'm not

interrupting anything.

No, no. l was just reading a, uh...

a scary book.

l was hoping you'd let me apologize

for my despicable behavior earlier.

- Okay...

- l don't know what came over me.

Do you suppose we could pretend

it never happened and start over...

- Look, Your Majesty, l just...

- Please. Call me Dad.

Dad. We both acted like ogres.

Maybe we just need some time

to get to know each other.

Excellent idea! l was actually hoping

you might join me for a morning hunt.

A little father-son time?

l know it would mean

the world to Fiona.

Shall we say,

Face it, Donkey!

We're lost.

We can't be lost. We followed

the King's instructions exactly.

''Head to the

darkest part of the woods...''

''Past the sinister trees

with scary-looking branches.''

- The bush shaped like Shirley Bassey!

- We passed that three times already!

You were the one who said

not to stop for directions.

Oh, great. My one chance

to fix things up with Fiona's dad

and l end up lost

in the woods with you!

Don't get huffy!

l'm only trying to help.

l know! l know.

- l'm sorry, all right?

- Hey, don't worry about it.

l just really need to make

things work with this guy.

Yeah, sure. Now let's go

bond with Daddy.

Well, well, well, Donkey.

l know it was kind of a tender

moment back there, but the purring?
