    Summary

    “Uh,” Mike says. “So - the last time we faced IT, we hurt it. Not bad, but enough to end the cycle early, right? We hurt IT, and it lost some energy. Now, IT’s making up for what we did by coming back early.”

    “Wait,” Richie says slowly. “You’re telling me that the alien hellclown came back 14 years before it was supposed to because it’s snacky?”

    Summary

    “Promise me you’ll come. Eventually. Just…come see me. Sit still with me for a while.” He holds back everything else he wants to say. Get a place with me. Run the shop with me. Laugh and make dinner with me. Let me wake up next to you every morning and not have to worry if I’m never going to see you again.

    “I promise.” Boris says it like it was already obvious, something that didn’t even need to be said. “Of course I promise.”

    Summary

    “I’m not sure I know,” Bill replied, “but I think w-we’re all childless. Is that ih-it?”

    There was a moment of shocked silence.

    “Yeah,” Mike said. “That’s it.”

    But that’s in a different universe. In this one, only five of the seven losers are childless. In this one, Stanley Uris throws out every razor he owns and books a flight to Bangor before he can change his mind or come to his senses, and he kisses his wife and his three kids goodbye on his way out the door.

    And about twelve hundred miles away, Eddie Kaspbrak is already well over halfway to Derry when he pulls over on I-95…

    … and he finds his nine-year-old daughter hiding in his trunk.

    Summary

    "Before the break, we asked our contestants: who was your first love? Richie, what did you write?"

    Your mom

    "Heh. That's what we get for inviting a comedian on the show," Chet snorts. "Very mature, Mr. Trashmouth. Maybe your partner can illuminate us. You guys were childhood friends, right? So fill us in, Eddie. Who was Richie's first love?"

    Rolling his eyes, Eddie flips over his card.

    My mom
