side it they find a rat's nest, still occupied. That night in Jesse's house the furnace flames up spontaneously and we see that something is racing up the stairs, only what we see is from its point of view. It enters the ground floor and continues up to the second floor and enters the room where Jesse's sister is sleeping. Then we see that it is Jesse who is standing next to her bed. He's wearing Freddy's claw glove. His sister wakes up and sees him but Jesse just tells her to go back to sleep. Jesse goes out and starts taking "Stay-Up" pills. The next day, driving to school with Lisa, Jesse tells her about the other strange things that have been happening to him at home. At lunch that day he's short-tempered with friends. That night is Lisa's party. Everyone is having a good time even though Lisa's father is playing Benny Goodman music on the tape deck. Jesse is there and goes into a cabana to be by himself. Lisa follows to talk to him, but he doesn 't want to talk about his problem. He thinks he's losing his mind and he doesn't want her to see him fall apart. Lisa comforts him and they kiss. Finally .Lisa's mother comes out and urges her husband to let the party be. They go in and go to bed. The kids put on a rock music tape and drag out the ice chests ftlled with beer. Lisa and Jesse are really going at it hot and heavy when suddenly Jesse's tongue becomes impossibly long and extends from his mouth. He stops what he's doing and runs out on Lisa without a word of explanation, leaving her very upset and confused, not to mention .frustrated. Jesse goes over to Grady's house. He'd been grounded and unable to attend the party, so Jesse climbs up and sneaks into Grady's room through a window. He startles Grady, who tries to calm his friend down. Jesse says he's in a lot of trouble and needs to stay there. Grady finally agrees. Jesse wants Grady to watch him and not to let him leave or to have any bad dreams. Jesse lies down to sleep for awhile. Lisa talks to a friend about what just happened and she urges Lisa to leave the party and find Jesse. Grady is watching television. Jesse is sound asleep. Grady decides it's time for him to sleep, too. Jesse suddenly wakes up in pain. Steel claws begin growing out of Jesse's right hand. Grady panics and tries to get out of his room, but the door is locked. He starts pounding on the door and calling to his father for help. Jesse screams and there's an eyeball at the back of his throat looking out through Jesse's open mouth. Jesse's chest begins expanding with Freddy's face pressing against the flesh from the inside. Grady keeps pounding on the locked door, screaming for his father to come and let him out. Freddy bursts out of Jesse' s chest and casts off the boy's body. Then Fred attacks Grady and slashes him to death. Suddenly it is Jesse who is standing over Ron Grady's mutilated body while Freddy laughs at him from the mirror. Jesse smashes the mirror and then hears the police pulling up outside. Hurriedly, the boy climbs back out the bedroom window the way he'd entered. Lisa is about to leave, but when she opens the door to the house, she finds Jesse standing there, covered with blood. The boy starts babbling, confessing to the murders of Schneider and IU)W Ron Grady, too. Jesse insists that Fred is inside him, but Lisa finds that hard to believe. Jesse insists, forcing her to look at the blood all over his hands. Outside, the swimming pool is heating up and the hot dogs on the grill all burst into flame. Lisa reads to Jesse from Nancy's diary about how the girl believed that they brought Freddy into their world and made him strong with the energy of their screams. The door to Lisa's parents room locks by itself, as does the gate to the back yard. Jesse feels Fred returning. Lisa tells him to fight it. Jesse tells Lisa to run and get away fro him. Lisa says, "You created him! You can defeat him!" But Jesse insists that he cannot. The water in the fish tank next to them begins to boil until the tank bursts. The electric light suspended around the swimming pool begin to burst and send off sparks. Freddy appears but Lisa eludes him and runs through the house. He tries to attack her bu she kicks him in the face and gets away again even though he manages to bite her on the leg. The water in the swimming pool begins to boil. Lisa picks up a large knife from next to a cake and tries to call to Jesse from where he' trapped inside Freddy. "There is no Jesse, now. There is only me!" Freddy insists. But from within Krueger'
