about laying him to rest.

You must find the remains...

and bury him in hallowed ground.

Hallowed ground?

Sister?

lf your only faith is science,

Doctor...

it may be you

that's laid to rest.

Wait!

Sister!

Let go of him, you bastard.

Oh, my God.

l've got to go in.

We have no choice.

Getting yourself killed

won't help the kids at all.

Besides, we do have a choice.

Assuming your mysterious nun

is right.

l've heard weirder things

this week.

All right. Whoever she is...

she seems to know

more about Krueger than l do.

The question is,

what happened to his body?

They burned him to death

in his boiler room...

and they hid the remains.

Who would know

where they're hidden?

Only one man knows...

and it's time for him to talk.

You can't take Nancy

away from us!

She's all we have!

You're a sick girl, Kristen.

lf you want to get better,

you must trust me now.

Take her to the quiet room

and sedate her.

You stupid b*tch!

You're killing us!

All right, everybody.

Back to bed.

Hi, Daddy.

Well, if it isn't

my little girl.

My baby come to see her daddy?

lt's been a long time.

But you're here. Sit down.

What did l do to get so lucky?

l thought that you were

trying to forget me.

That's not true.

You're the one trying to forget.

l need your help, Dad.

Krueger's back.

Fred Krueger is dead.

You always had a little trouble

trying to understand that.

You know what he did.

He's doing it again.

She's telling you the truth.

l don't believe we've met...

and this isn't

any of your goddamn business.

We can stop him this time--

stop him for good...

but we need to know

where his bones were hidden.

l've lost too much

over this already.

l'm through with it.

People are still dying

after all this time.

Stop running away from it.

You owe me.

lt was nice seeing you again,

princess.

Next time, don't...

don't stay away so long.

l'll be OK.

Just give me a minute.

lt's the hospital.

-Dr. Gordon?

-Taryn.

You've got to come right away.

Kristen had a total sh*t attack.

Simms doped her up

and put her in the quiet room.

Simms put Kristen

in the quiet room for the night.

-They sedated her.

-Oh, no.

She can't stay awake for long.

She's all alone.

Freddy's going to get her.

Just stay cool.

Help is on the way.

Just hurry!

l got to get there.

-You go. l'll get the remains.

-lt's no use.

l'll talk to him.

Make Simms understand.

She'll never understand.

l got to get to Kristen.

Be careful.

My name is Neil Gordon.

Pleased to meet you.

There, now we've met!

Now listen to me!

Maybe you don't care whether

Nancy lives or dies, but l do!

You and l are going

on a little scavenger hunt.

Please, God...

don't make me sleep.

What the hell are we doing here?

l won't be long.

What do you think you're doing?

Look, l'm sorry.

l really need this. l got...

l'll reimburse you.

You keep my driver's license.

l'll be back.

Max, l need to see Kristen.

-You don't understand.

-Save your breath.

Dr. Simms

gave me specific instructions.

No one sees Kristen,

especially you.

But, Max, she needs me.

She's in danger.

You got to believe me!

l really think you mean well,

but my kids been dying off...

and even without Simms' orders,

l wouldn't let you near her.

OK, Max. l understand.

Can l say good-bye

to the others?

l don't know.

lt'll be my last chance.

Five minutes.

They're in the TV room.

Where have you been?

There's no time. Come on.

-Where?

-Our last group.

ln there.

We knew nobody would ever

find it in that place.

l'm not sure

l can find it myself anymore.

lt's deep in the heart

of the place.

Take it slow.

Straight talk only in here.

What about Kristen?

We can't get to her. l tried.

l was hoping we'd have more time

to learn to use the dreams...

but Joey's in there.

Kristen's going in, too.

They need us.

We're trying to go in,

to link up?

lt's now or never.

l'm not going to kid you.

This is dangerous.

lf you die in this dream,

it's for real.

Nobody has to go in

that doesn't want to.

l'm in.

Me, too.

Let's go kick the motherf***er's

ass all over dreamland.

Remember, you have to stay

together whatever happens.

That's the only way

we can beat him.

All right.

Clear your mind of everything.

Picture yourself

in the quiet room...

the soft, white walls...

the total silence...

only the sound

of your heart beating.

Picture yourself there

with Kristen.

l'm going to count backwards

from five...

and when l'm done,

we'll all be asleep.

We'll all be in the quiet room.

Five...

four...

three...

two...

one.

l knew you'd come.

We wouldn't let you go in alone.

No way. We're a team !

Listen, everybody.

Joey needs us. l can feel him.

Where is he?

How do we find him?

Stay in the middle of the room !

Whatever happens, stay together!

You'll wake up

the whole neighborhood.

Why are you still up?

lt's past 1:
00.

l just thought l'd wait for you.

Well, l'm home.

You can get to sleep now.

Come on.

Andale.

What's that for?

l'm just glad you're home.

Mom, l had the most awful dream.

Elaine,

where do you keep the bourbon?

l'll be right down.

Kris, l've got a guest.

l just don't want to be alone.

l said

where's the f***ing bourbon?

You should listen

to your mother!

God damn it, Kristen,

you ruin everything!

Every time l bring a man home,

you spoil it!

You know what your shrink says?

You just want attention!

ls that you?

Welcome home, Taryn.

Look familiar?

OK, a**hole, let's dance!

Why should we fight?

We're old friends, you and l.

Remember?

Let's get high.

What a rush.

You guys? Where are you?

ls somebody there?

You look tired.

Have a seat.

No, thanks.

l'm fine just the way l am.

For now, maybe.

But when you wake up...

it's back...

in the saddle...

again.

My leg!

lt's the chair for you, kid!

l am the Wizard Master.

l am the Wizard Master!

ln the name of Lowrek,

Prince of Elves, demon begone!

Sorry, kid.

l don't believe in fairy tales.

Somebody?

What is that?

l don't know.

Yo. l thought l heard voices.

Kincaid, l could kiss you.

What's stopping you?

Cool. So where's Joey?

l don't know.

This place is a maze.

lt's time to stop guessin'

and start messin'.

Yo, Freddy, where you hiding,

you burnt-face p*ssy!

We should find the others first.

You think you're hot sh*t,

don't you?

Come get a piece of me!

Krueger, p*ssy!

l knew he was a little chicken.

Sh*t.

-lt's a door.

-But it doesn't go anywhere.

Yes, it does.

This is it.

Are you ready?

Let's snuff the sucker.

That's it.

The Caddy.

Going somewhere?

l said l'd show you where

the goddamn thing was.

l never said l'd stick around.

-We've got work to do.

-What are you talking about?

You're about to attend

a funeral--

one that's long overdue.

Joey, look.

All the little piggies

come home.

Let him go, Krueger!

Your wish is my command.

He's never been this strong.

The souls of children...

give me strength.

Always room for more.

-What's that?
