Libby
(SPOILER)Later, Hurley invites her to a surprise picnic, to which she accepts. However, Hurley forgets some blankets, so Libby offers to retrieve them. As Libby is about to leave the hatch, she overhears Michael shooting and killing Ana Lucia. Calling out his name in shock, she is accidentally shot twice in the abdomen. After Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Mr. Eko arrive, Sawyer discovers that Libby is in critical condition, while Ana Lucia lies dead. At first, Jack's initiative is to pursue the escaped "Henry Gale", but eventually he administrates Charlie's confiscated heroin to ease the pain. In her dying breath, she coughs out Michael's name. However, this attempt of accusation is mistaken for concern, and she dies with Hurley at bedside ("?"). She and Ana Lucia are buried alongside each other in "Three Minutes". It was revealed much later by Michael that, even if he had a moment to think things through, he would have killed her regardless.
Hurley visits Libby's grave in "Tricia Tanaka Is Dead", where he reveals that he misses her, and leaves a flower on her grave.
TRIVIA
1.(SPOILER)As of the end of Season 3, Libby is the only main character, past or present, to not be the main subject of a flashback (with the possible exception of one at the end of Dave).
2.
(SPOILER)Originally, Libby was not set to die, but Ana Lucia Cortez was not considered a popular enough character to garner sympathy from fans, so Libby, who was well liked, was killed as well for emotional impact. Cynthia Watros took the news quite badly.
CHARLIE PACE*
(SPOILER)Charlie explains to Claire that he needs to do it in order for everyone to be rescued, and tells her not to worry about him. He then places his ring into Aaron's crib. The two share a kiss before Charlie leaves. Charlie and Desmond prepare to head off when Hurley begs Charlie to let him tag along, but Charlie declines his offer. As Hurley leaves, Charlie hugs him before heading off. Desmond and Charlie sail off, following the cable. Desmond offers to take Charlie's place. However, after a brief moment, Charlie knocks him out and dives into the ocean. Charlie barely makes it into the Looking Glass, but climbs out of the water safely. Just then, he is caught by two armed women.
In "Greatest Hits", Charlie composes a list of the five best moments, or "greatest" hits in his life after being told that his band released a Greatest Hits album in honor of his "death" and that he needed to sacrifice himself to get everyone, notably Claire and Aaron, rescued. He places the list on Desmond's chest after knocking him out, having previously told him to give it to Claire. The items on the list are:
- 5. The day he first heard his band on the radio.
- 4. Learning to swim with his dad.
- 3. His brother Liam giving him the Pace family heirloom for Christmas. The heirloom is the ring inscribed with "DS" (the initials of an ancestor,Dexter Stratton), which led to the brothers naming their band DriveSHAFT.
- 2. Being called a hero by a woman in an alley after saving her from a mugger. Incidentally, the woman was Nadia, Sayid's love.
- 1. Meeting Claire the first night on the island.
Charlie's interrogation is interrupted by Mikhail who shoots Charlie's captors when he finds out that Ben is purposely blocking transmissions. Desmond appears and shoots Mikhail with a harpoon. Desmond frees Charlie and one of Charlie's captors gives Charlie the code needed to deactivate the jamming signal. The code was designed by a musician, and was meant to sound like The Beach Boys "Good Vibrations". As Desmond tries to find scuba equipment, Charlie receives a call from Penny, Desmond's girlfriend. It is revealed that Naomi's freighter is not Penny's supposed ship, but rather one that wasn't predicted. While receiving the message, Mikhail escapes into the water with a grenade. He blows the grenade outside the room Charlie is in, flooding the room. Charlie stops the water from flooding the station by locking himself in the room, thus saving Desmond's life but sacrificing his own. Charlie writes "Not Penny's boat" on his hand with his permanent marker, informing Desmond of this from the other side of the glass. When it is clear that Desmond understands, he places his hand in front of Charlie's. Charlie gives him a small but noticeable smile, finally accepting his inevitable fate. He then swims backward and while floating into the center of the room, blesses himself with the sign of the Cross, and then dies.
TRIVIA
1.(SPOILER)During the fourth season of another J.J. Abram's produced television show on ABC, Alias, "You All Everybody" is heard playing in the background at main character Eric Weiss' birthday party.
2.
(SPOILER)There are several similarities between DriveSHAFT and the band Oasis; these include their Mancunian origins, their international success, the lead singer's name being Liam, the band being formed by two brothers and dominated by their somewhat turbulent relationship, and, humourously, a lack of emphasis on the other members of the band. Also, their single "You All Everybody" is allegedly based on the Oasis song "Rock 'n' Roll Star", and the song Charlie sings while busking is "Wonderwall", one of Oasis' most famous songs.
Shannon and Paulo tomorrow.
Ok!
