| ~ Billy confirming that Chris Hargensen is dead for good this time. |
| “ | After the truck crashed, I was out cold. While I was in the hospital, I regained conciousness, and then, after I heard that my family, who abused me since I was a child, were dead, I hid in an airplane cargo hold, and then, I bought a house, and that was where I felt remorse for being part of the pig blood prank.

William "Billy" Nolan, now known as Billy Nolan Sr, is a major antagonist in the 2002 TV film Carrie and the deuteragonist in the Wattpad fanfiction A light in the darkness.
He once took part in the plan to humiliate Carrie (who would later become his wife), but abandoned that after some time in the hospital. He is the father of Billy Nolan Jr and Sasha Rita Nolan.
What makes him Pure Good?[]
- Shortly after the events of the TV film, Billy shed all of his corrupting factors, and felt remorse for his past misdeeds.
- Decided to help Carrie to make up for his role in the pig blood prank.
- Shut down Chris's portal machine, ensuring his role in the safety of the multiverse.

- He genuinely loves both of his children, as shown when he sews a picture that said he's a parent with an autistic child after his son Billy Nolan Jr was diagnosed with autism, and even had a movie night with his daughter, Sasha.
