   Summary

   Bill Cipher begs the Axolotl for a second chance on the verge of death. The Axolotl agrees, like the bleeding-heart idiot that it is. All Bill has to do is pass a little trial. How hard can that be for a dream demon of unfathomable cosmic power?

   He wakes up in 1979. And he is not a dream demon of unfathomable cosmic power.
