 Rousseau's primary objective is to reunite with her daughter, which is achieved in the season three finale "Through the Looking Glass".The reunion is short-lived; Rousseau is shot and killed by a band of mercenaries in the middle of the fourth season.The writers wrote Rousseau out of the series upon request by Furlan, who did not wish to travel to Hawaii to film her scenes, although she later called this an untrue rumor.
