She lost Nero's rope, and he walked down the street. There, he was run over by another boy with a bicycle. Wednesday later buried what was left, and was then shown crying at his grave. Wednesday from this said, "But tears don't fix anything" and vowed to never cry again. Later on, she did end up crying when Thing was temporarily dead.
