Oh don't be like me, I got so worried sick over Lucas that I actually became sick! Not the brightest move I've ever made in a lifetime.....

I do understand your despair my friend, to see our beloved Lucas turn into this monstrosity that is John is very chilling and heart-breaking!!

This is like the spy version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide!!!

We know that Vaughn is a manipulator of phenomenal standards, and that he is able to lie and betray with the best of them. I still think he planted that in Lucas' mind. When he told Lucas what 'really' happened, Lucas seemed confused, as if he didn't actually remember it.

When Lucas told Vaughn he had told Harry, Vaughn asked if Lucas had told everything and Lucas reiterated 'everything'. Then Vaughn offers a different version to which I think Lucas looks alarmed as if he wasn't aware of it.

I thought that was rather strange too and I kept thinking, how come he hasn't got time to have even a moment of lover's time with Maya, it can't be because they have to get out fast, because he stands there and listens to Vaughn for a couple of minutes.

I have the same feeling, I mean, normally Spooks writers don't miss off mark this much, when they show a scene, it's always there for a reason. So this sudden love-interest with Maya is just very weird, I mean, Lucas had a more "real" relationship with Sarah Caulfield than Maya!

And the fact that Lucas/John just looks alarmed/scared/confused at Vaughn's words at the end makes me wonder if everything we have been told up until this point has been a smokescreen!

Maybe Maya is more than just a simple love-interest, maybe she's more embroiled into this than we ever thought she was?

Maybe it will be Maya who gets onto that roof and shoots Lucas/John and double crosses him thereby revealing that she was the one pulling the strings all along? Maybe then Harry takes her down and realizes that Lucas was just a pawn used by so many people all along and saves him?

Honestly, when I asked for a Lucas/Harry storyline, this is not what I had in mind!!! I was thinking more of happy moments and hugs!!!
