श्रेक has become a domesticated family man. Instead of scaring villagers away like he used to, the now-reluctant ogre agrees to autograph pitch forks. Longing for the days when he felt like a "real ogre," श्रेक is tricked into signing a pact with the smooth-talking dealmaker, Rumpelstiltskin. श्रेक suddenly finds himself in a twisted, alternate version of Far Far Away, where ogres are hunted, Rumplestiltskin is king and श्रेक and Fiona (Cameron Diaz) have never met. Now, it's up to श्रेक to undo all of Rumpelstiltskin's mischief in the hopes of saving his friends, restoring his world and reclaiming his one True प्यार and family.
