Fiona is angry. She says to Shrek who too is visibly distressed ‘But you weren’t there when I needed you. I rescued myself from the dragon and the castle.’
After a round of twists, things do fall into place.
Shrek is back to his happy, love filled life. He says to Fiona ‘It wasn’t I who rescued you. You truly rescued me.’
Despite the fairy tales one has been fed growing up and despite the sweeping generalization that *only* ‘some people’ need to be rescued ‘all the time’, I would like to believe in Shrek and Fiona’s ‘rescuing each other’.
Romantic and slightly foolish (naive?) but so heartening to hear 🙂
