Storylines for series 9

RE: Storylines for series 9
Hello All: I am brand spankin new here...and am going to take a huge leap...so don't all growl at me at once. I haven't read back through all the posts for this thread, so forgive me if I'm repeating. I wanted to propose something that I've been kicking around in my head since 8.8. Sarah is in the hospital and just about to have a nice, neat hole blown into her forehead and Lucas asks her, "Who tasked you to kill me," and she says "Harry Pearce...you have a Nightingale mole in your midst." Lucas gets mad and we're meant to think it's just Sarah messing with him, being cruel, being sarcastic...whatever. But it's a weird moment because she never laughs, never changes her tone and just plows forward trying to convince Lucas that he should run away with her. Strange opening ploy if you're trying to get someone you love to believe what you're saying, no? Second thing that doesn't sit well with me...the conversation with Ruth on the roof. In my opinion, it's a strange scene as well...not terribly well-written and kind of awkward. But what if it's brilliantly written and the awkwardness comes from Harry feeling intensely horrible about what's happening...and it's because he's somehow involved and is feeling powerless to stop it, even though he knows that it's horrible? He never really condemns Nightingale in the conversation, he just lets Ruth condemn them...and what's with the tears? Really? Harry's crying just because something bad is looming on the horizon? This seems distinctly un-Harrylike. So this is my thinking...Harry got involved with Nightingale at it's inception...perhaps as a counter-balance to Mace...or perhaps because he saw it as a way to clear Ruth...or perhaps it was presented as a way to control the crazy, right wing, anti-human rights, pro-torture faction...or to control out of control rogue nations. Who knows? But now it's spiraled out of control and he's feeling caught...and is upset and feeling guilty...and lovely, trusting Ruth interprets his upset/guilt as a love for humanity. So...is it possible that this could be the "ultimate betrayal"? Because really, what would be worse than Harry turning out to be the bad guy? And those damn Spooks writers would be just perverse enough to do something this awful...it's the next step up from killing off your characters...destroying the credibility of the most beloved one of all. So again, don't send flaming arrows my way...it's not what I HOPE will happen. It's just a thought...and a particularly awful one at that...but one that I can't get out of my head.
