Who is the false villain Shrek forever after?

In "Shrek Forever After," the false villain is Rumpelstiltskin. He manipulates Shrek into signing a contract that grants him a day of freedom from his responsibilities as a family man, but it ultimately leads to a twisted alternate reality where Rumpelstiltskin is in control. His deceptive nature and desire for power make him appear villainous, but his role is more about exploiting Shrek's desires than being an outright antagonist.
