this is what happened
Henry and Charles prepare for their ride back to Earth when they are suddenly ambushed by Jacked Hughman. Henry is forced out of the escape pod, prompting Charles to tackle Hughman and throw Henry back inside. Before Charles can make it back to the pod himself, Hughman tackles him down. The pod closes with only Henry inside and launches into space for Earth, leaving Charles on the doomed space station. Before the pod takes off, Charles tells Henry not to worry about him and that he'll find another way to escape. A few moments later, Charles informs Henry that he managed to defeat Hughman and he should be able to escape anyway, citing that he can still find an empty escape pod. He remarks on their success but is abruptly cut off when the station's power core is overwhelmed and explodes, killing him. Shattered at this sight, Henry screams in grief, and pounds on the pod's window, refusing to believe in Charles' death before slumping over on the glass.
