Don't let 'em.

Sure, no problem.

You know, he's right.

Sometimes I feel like I'm living

with Melicertes.

- Who?

- Melicertes.

He's this ancient guy

I read about, right?

Who, like, killed his kids...

because he didn't like the way

they were running the kingdom.

You're really weird,

you know that?

Screw 'em!

Open the champagne!

Let's have a party!

- All right!

- All right!

That's for Alice and me later.

Sorry.

- Ow, are you OK?

- Oh, my God.

I could have gone all night

without looking at that.

I think it's very strange

how you draw all your comics...

loaded with blood and guts.

That freaks you out.

Yeah,

it's just a little blood, guy.

I know what it is,

you big, dumb jock.

Dan, telephone. Come on.

I'll be right back.

Don't touch this, OK?

OK, we'll guard it

with our lives.

- Dan, it was Krueger.

- What?

It happened while I was awake.

Do you understand

what I'm saying?

Now, wait a second. How could...

He must have dreamt himself up.

I don't know.

Jesus, Dan, I'm scared.

All right. Stay right there.

I'm on my way.

OK, I will.

Just hurry, OK?

Sh*t.

What happened? Somebody die?

Nah. I got to go.

Alice beckons.

Hey, Romeo,

forgot the secret ingredient.

There he goes,

the fastest man on three legs.

The sounds of Springwood.

It's a beautiful evening

here in downtown Springwood...

and we'll be back

with the music in just a moment.

Right now,

we're open for your calls.

I'm calling about

my wayward ex-son Daniel...

who's been acting

like an ungrateful dickweed...

ever since he was seduced

by that bimbo slut whore Alice!

Mom?

If I were you, lady...

I'd kill the ungrateful piggy.

Put your pedal

to the metal, Dan!

Bad year, Dan!

Better buckle up, dear!

This boy

feels the need for speed.

Gotcha!

Fuel injection!

Power drive!

Fast lane!

Hey, Danny,

better not dream and drive.

Coffee, please?

He just came f***ing

flying out of nowhere!

It was some kind

of a frigging jet!

I didn't even see him!

Want to make babies?

You're all right.

It's OK, honey, I'm right here.

Dan's been in an accident.

It was no accident.

It was Krueger.

He used to come in through

my dreams and not anymore.

He found some other way.

I'm sorry.

It was no dream.

Dan's dead.

Not Dan.

Honey.

I'm so sorry.

Daddy, it wasn't an accident.

Krueger killed Dan.

Calm down. Take it easy.

You're in shock.

The police found fragments

of a champagne bottle.

Dan didn't drink. You know that.

I mean, it was probably for me

to celebrate our trip!

We gotta do something!

Dan's already dead.

Don't you see?

It's starting again.

These sorts of outbursts

aren't entirely uncommon.

Many women
