Each line is executed independently. Local variables from 1 line of code will not persist between returns.
Some things do persist though, classes for instance will persist, roles will persist, grammars will persist, but sub routines will not, neither will variables. I believe there are plans for some improvements, eventually, but right now its fairly simplistic.
