Lowery's Handgun

Handgun wielded by Lowery during his Dalek infection-induced violent episode in the jungle. Lowery draws it at Cory in a desperate, infected frenzy, chanting 'Kill. Kill.' before Cory shoots him dead in self-defense. The weapon drops beside Lowery's body, unnoticed by Dalek patrols. This gun is central to the confrontation where Cory records his warning message amid the jungle undergrowth.

Cory kills infected Lowery and records warning

Lowery’s gun is a tragic symbol of his infection and the Varga’s control. As the poison takes hold, he raises it in a final, deranged lunge toward Cory, chanting 'Kill. Kill.' The gun is never fired—Cory acts first, shooting Lowery dead. It represents the loss of Lowery’s humanity, a weapon turned against his former ally by the Varga’s compulsion. After his death, the gun lies useless in the jungle, a relic of a man consumed by the planet’s horrors.

Before: Gripped tightly in Lowery’s hand as the Varga infection takes hold.

After: Discarded near Lowery’s body, unused and symbolic of his fall.

Cory’s Final Transmission and Death

Lowery’s gun is not present in this event, as Lowery himself is already dead (killed by Cory earlier). Its absence underscores the finality of Lowery’s fate and the isolation of Cory’s last stand. The gun’s role in the scene’s earlier tragedy—Lowery’s Varga-induced rampage and Cory’s mercy killing—lingers as a dark precursor to Cory’s own demise, reinforcing the theme of inevitable doom on Kembel.

Before: Unseen (Lowery is deceased).

After: Unseen (presumed lost or discarded).
