Desperate Housewives Cliffhanger: Who Died in the Wisteria Lane Plane Crash?

Many viewers of the hit TV show Desperate Housewives were left wondering just who died after viewing the 12/6 episode, "Boom Crunch."

Last night on Desperate Housewives a plane crashed into the Christmas Party to end all Christmas parties. It is obvious that some of the shows star characters will live while others have met an untimely death. At this point, it is not exactly clear who will make it to the next episode (which airs in January), but there are a few likely scenarios as to which Desperate Housewives characters are dead and alive. All of these characters were shown when the plane was crashing and depicted as being in peril.

First up is Mona. After Mona concluded part of a blackmail rant, the small plane carrying Bree's proposal banner began to approach. Mona did not hear the plane immediately and did not run away. Her feet are seen being lifted off of the ground by the plane's wing, and she is not shown again. It is highly likely that Mona did not survive the crash.

Bree was last seen in a Christmas house destroyed by the airplane sweeping through it. A bloody hand was seen in the rubble of this house in the final frames. It is quite unlikely that Bree is gone. It is probable that Bree was no longer in the house, or that she will be severely injured. A further clue that Bree is okay is that the bloody hand shown in the window looked very masculine.

Carl and Orson were last seen fighting in the Christmas house over Bree. The bloody, seemingly masculine, hand, belonged to one of these two men. Viewers cannot be sure which man makes it out until January!

Lynette was last seen pulling a dumbfounded Celia out of the path of the plane. It is highly unlikely that either of these characters will die, but it would not be an at all untypical plot twist if Lynette were to lose one or both of the babies she is carrying.

This episode is quite the cliffhanger as Desperate Housewives is not returning until January!
