Hi, in short I can load image in MC. But when I try to unload, happened problem. Image stay there. Why I’m mistaken?

Here is my AS  
[AS]  
import flash.display.Loader;  
…  
var bigOne\_loader:Loader = new Loader();  
show\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN, showMeBigOne);  
…  
function showMeBigOne(info:MouseEvent):void {  
bigOne\_loader.unload();  
…  
}  
…  
bigOne\_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, showPic\_complite);  
bigOne\_loader.load(new URLRequest(“gallery/blah\_blah.jpg”));  
…

[/AS]
