B1 may re-enter and continue her dribble or gather the ball. If she gathers the ball and dribbles it is an illegal dribble(double dribble).
If she saved or batted the ball forward WITHOUT controlling it first, she may re-enter and do whatever she wants.

BZ,
I agree with your last item. However on the first two, it sounds like you are calling this a dribble and a dribbler cannot step out of bounds - that's a violation. 9-3 Note.
However, this sounds like it was not controlled (5 or 6 steps) and in that case I would let her regain inbounds status, gather the ball with two hands if needed, and/or start dribbling.

If she is dribbling and steps out it is a violation, but what we have here is different. This falls under a pass that becomes an interrupted dribble. It is just like A1, who has yet to dribble, passes to A2, but A2 turns away so A1 runs and gets the ball. That is legal. A1 may go and continue dribbling the "pass" or if she picks it up the dribble has ended and she cannot dribble again.
