    Plot: One year after reconciling her past, Mary Schmidt is retired from working a career and now owns a dairy farm with her daughter Marilyn in Alaska. However, she struggles to sleep, as she is haunted by strange monsters that she scarce recognizes. Marilyn is also unable to sleep, and Mary realizes that she must enter the dream world, and seeks the help of their cat, Gallus. As Mary falls asleep, Gallus enters her mind and takes her to the dream world; in what appears to be their childhood house, Mary is back as a child, and Gallus is now an origami cat. He finally reveals to her that he earned the name "origami cat" from the dream world, thus causing her to understand how he was resurrected when they met several years ago.

    After finding her old cassette tape in the dream world, Gallus warns her that while the music will prevent the monsters from attacking her, the restart and off buttons are broken; she must rewind the tape when its music stops. The first night begins, and Mary is back in her adult form and in her old bedroom. As time goes on, she encounters Monster Rat, whom she recognizes greatly. He frightens her so much that she panics and accidentally pauses the tape. Eventually regaining her senses and fending off the Rat with her flashlight, she unpauses the tape and rewinds it, before 6:AM saves her from the Rat. Gallus realizes that he cannot take her out of the dream world yet, and instead shows her a glimpse of the past, during the final week of her spending time at The Rat and Cat Theatre. She witnesses herself, as a child, playing hide and seek with the Rat and Cat, which they ultimately win.

    She eventually wakes up, and tells Marilyn of her experience. She reveals to Marilyn the reason why they are both having trouble sleeping; the monsters who haunt Marilyn, including Monster Rat, are ghosts from Mary's past, and she eventually decides to let her enter the dream world with her. They both fall asleep with Gallus at their side. Before they both start the second night, Mary, back in child form, decides to play hide and seek with Marilyn.

    Mary ultimately wins, and they return to the bedroom and begin the second night, with Mary once again back in her adult form and Marilyn back in her teenage form. After numerous encounters with the Rat, Monster Cat arrives, and begins terrorizing Marilyn. However, Mary saves her in a nick of time, and Gallus appears, fending both the Rat and the Cat off just as 6:AM approaches. Mary apologizes to Marilyn for bringing her into the dream world, but Marilyn replies that she only did what was right. Gallus once again shows a flashback of Mary's past, which reveals that the Puppeteer, the owner and manager of The Rat and Cat Theatre, was suffering from an intermittent explosive disorder, and Mary once again witnesses her child self playing hide and seek with the Rat.

    In the third night, both the Rat and the Cat attack both Mary and Marilyn non-stop, even slicing Marilyn's arm open and impaling Mary, but Gallus saves them and subdues the monsters before 6:AM arrives.

    During another flashback, it is revealed that the Rat was coerced into getting drunk, and he was playing hide and seek with Mary without knowing this. After narrowly avoiding being found, she continued finding a spot to hide. Mary realizes that this flashback is part of the last day she was in the theatre, and Gallus reveals that if she and Marilyn complete two more nights, the flashback will be finished.

    After a devastating battle with the monsters on the fourth night, the second part of the flashback is released. Mary follows her child self into the dressing room, where she had hid in the locker. The Rat followed her in, and as he was about to open the locker, the Puppeteer arrived, and had wrongly insulted him for getting himself drunk. This argument turned south when the Rat mocked him for this, and upon getting sober, he corrected him by saying he was coerced into a drinking contest. The Puppeteer, in a blind rage for being corrected and called out, succumbed to his IED and attacked the Rat, eventually killing him, though he did not intend for his death to happen. However, after the Cat entered the room and was told by the Puppeteer what had happened, he attempted to call the police, only for the Puppeteer to kill him as well and then lie, saying he found them dead.

    Mary finally realizes that the Rat and Cat are the same beings as the monsters haunting hers and Marilyn's heads. Neither they nor Gallus know why they are being attacked by them, as they did nothing to them, but Mary intends to find out on the final night, which begins with a message from Vinnie himself, who reminds her that he is the Puppeteer and that he swore revenge one year ago. In the bedroom, Vinnie, before savagely attacking Mary and Marilyn, reveals that he manipulated the Rat and Cat after he died with them years later. He knocks Marilyn unconscious, while Mary is seriously injured; as he is about to kill them both, Gallus arrives and transforms into a monstrous form, fighting him until he is defeated, as he was holding back and Vinnie was not. However, when the Rat and Cat arrive, Gallus uses the opportunity to convince them that Vinnie has lied to them, as he did to the police; he had told them that Mary was responsible for their deaths, when in reality, he was. Gallus then slices Vinnie's neck open, while the Rat and Cat drag him away, and also apologizing to a still-alive and surviving Mary, before leaving both her mind and Marilyn's for good. Gallus then transports the two back to the dream world, and releases the final part of the memory. Mary follows her child self out of the dressing room after she gets out of the locker, eventually leading her outside, where she reunited with her father. A few weeks after this event, she had realized that the Puppeteer killed the Rat and Cat when she watched a film where he portrayed a murderer. She turned him in upon this realization, and his death in prison came soon after.

    In the aftermath, Mary and Marilyn return with Gallus to the real world and awaken. A few hours later, and a few minutes after dinner, Marilyn asks Mary if they can visit the Dream World with Gallus again, Mary promises that they will, replying "Of course, babygirl. Every time we go to bed, we'll visit there." Before the end credits roll, Vinnie is left to die by the Rat and Cat, who ascend to the afterlife, while Mary and Marilyn play catch with Gallus in the dream world..
