Having Audra Phillips killed[]
After Winter Soldier abducts Audra, she is tied up to a pole as Tom stood in front of her. He then asks her where Beverly is, only for her to refuse to tell him. This causes Tom to order the Winter Soldier to kill her, and he obliges. He then tells Winter Soldier to go and capture Beverly, but must kill anyone who stands in his way.
Running into Beverly again[]
After Winter Soldier (revealed to be none other than Georgie Denbrough) brings Beverly over to Tom's lair and pushes her onto the floor, he remarks how she though she could escape from him, and mocks her by informing her that it was Bill's own brother that he sent out on the mission to capture her. He then decided to use the trigger words to erase the memories that Georgie's mind had been trying to fill the gaps of. After that, he orders him to kill The Losers Club after realizing that if they succeed, Tom would go to jail.

Running into The Losers Club[]
Tom then ran into The Losers Club, then met Bill Denbrough, the club leader. He decided to use that to put on a friendly facade, and decided to use that to lure Bill and the rest of The Losers Club into his lair, which was an abandoned house across from the lake.
Final confrontation and death[]
After The Losers Club arrived at the lair, Tom ran off, but with Richie Tozier and Mike Hanlon chasing him. After Beverly was freed, Tom picked up a Glock 36 pistol, and he attempted to aim it at his bedroom door, but Beverly blocked the shot with a serving tray. He was then shoved onto the bed by her, causing the gun to fall out of his hand. He then bucks Beverly off of him, only for Tom to later be shoved onto the dresser. He then stands on the clothes that Richie and Mike tied up, causing him to drop both his belt and gun. As he tries to get his belt to hit Beverly with it, she uses his gun to shoot him in the right arm, left kneecap, and the left foot. Just as he is about to get his belt to give Beverly the biggest whuppin of her entire life, she shoots him in the head, finally killing him. It is implied that his corpse slid into the lake and sunk with the lair and Ben Hanscom's corpse.
Legacy[]
