The Web of Horror The Search After killing It, Bill searched the lair for Audra. He found her hanging in the web, catatonic. She was alive but unresponsive, her mind shattered by the deadlights. The Rescue Bill cut her down and carried her out of the sewers. He took her to Mike Hanlon's house, where he cared for her. She remained in a catatonic state for days. The Despair Bill was devastated. He had saved the town but lost his wife's mind. He refused to give up hope, believing that love could bring her back.

The Revival The Revival from "It". The Bicycle Ride The Idea Bill remembered how the Losers had used belief and action to overcome fear.

The Bicycle Ride The Idea Bill remembered how the Losers had used belief and action to overcome fear. He decided to take Audra on a wild bicycle ride down Derry's ruined streets, hoping to shock her back to consciousness. The Ride Bill put Audra on the back of Silver and pedaled furiously down Main Street Hill. The wind, the speed, and the danger broke through her catatonia. She began to laugh and hold onto Bill. The Recovery Audra fully recovered, though she had no memory of her time in the deadlights. She and Bill left Derry together, their love reaffirmed. The bicycle ride became a symbol of Bill's determination to save her.
