Well, seems Lucy might as well have carried out her threat, anyway—to snatch Linus’ blanket and throw it in the trash burner, so it would be gone forever—at that VERY MOMENT. Because, don’t forget, there was also the time their grandma had agreed to quit smoking, which Linus did not think Grandma would ever do, and thus,in the end, Lucy almost DID have Linus’ blanket come to a TRAGIC END, but he saved it at the last minute.
