Character Profile
Rose Henderson
Actor: L. Scott Caldwell
On Flight 815: Rose was flying home from her honeymoon in Australia with her husband, Bernard.
Profession: Unknown
Prior to the Crash:
Rose and Bernard met one night in the Bronx when her car was stuck in the snow. The couple connected and five months later Bernard proposed. Rose responded by saying that she had a terminal disease that was now in remission with one year left to live. Bernard wanted to marry her anyway, so they went ahead with it.
For their honeymoon, Bernard surprised Rose with a trip to Australia. He wanted her to see a faith healer but Rose became upset, saying that she was at peace with her upcoming death. Bernard explained that he had made a large donation. Rose agreed to see the healer.
Isaac, the healer told Rose that the energy under his house was not the right kind to heal her. The energy she needs exists elsewhere. The healer said that he would return the donation to Bernard, but she told him not to. Rose told Bernard that she was healed.
After the Crash:
Even though the two were separated after the crash (Bernard was with the Tailies), Rose knew he was alive. They were eventually reunited when the Tailies arrive at camp.
Rose has a strong religious faith and works to help her fellow castaways.
Bernard works to get them off the island, but Rose refuses to help. She finally tells Bernard that the healer had not healed her, but the island has. Bernard says they will stay on the island forever.
Off the Island:
We do not yet know if Rose makes it off the island.
