LeAnn Harvey, say it ain't so

I liked LeAnn, it'd be a shame if she really met her demise (as opposed to faking it to get out).
But, I've got to ask - what on earth is the point of driving a Porsche if not to outrun a vehicle following too closely? Just seems so lame, so messy.

It's possible she initially sped up away from the tail and only crashed by herself later after some abrupt maneuver on a wet road.
Being able to get away is more about the driver than the car. A professional racer could do it in a Ford Pinto but nothing in the show indicates she is supposed to have above average driving skills, while the spooks chasing her are most likely not amateurs either, so I find the portrayal believable.

She was one of my favorite characters in this season. I'm taking some hope from the fact that we didn't see her, but that car was trashed...

She was so HOT. Doug was a lucky guy afterall. He barely had to do anything to get her to jump over him.

Yep! Can't fathom why the show wasted the chance to let her sensuality sizzle. Of all the sex scenes among all the characters, she should have had a ton more action.

I guess she's the most famous female in the cast (I really think more people know her than Robin Wright) so she doesn't need to "play ball" with the production crew.

Not sure about that - after all, Robin Wright is The Princess Bride!

Well, I don't know. At least in the late 90s/early 00s Neve Campbell was a big name. Maybe she's been downgraded since.
