Well, one could also argue, when he came back from Russia, he at least acted like a normal functioning human being despite being damaged, but Series 9 had him gone completely loco, that's the issue. One could still work after being traumatized, but could one still work after being manipulated to believe you are a different person and completely turn against and hurt the people you've swore your own life to protect?

Harry may have let Lucas return after 8 years in Russia, but returning to the Grid after this JB incident, I'd be surprised if Lucas's head hasn't turned to mush already.

Well yes, that's exactly my point. Surely Lucas would be far too emotionally damaged to ever entertain the idea of going back to work? Unless we're fed some bizarre "and it was all a dream..." scenario in S10!

I'd love to see his character return, but I can't see how he could ever go back to working full-time as a member of Section D. Perhaps he might have some useful intel which could be coerced out of him (unlikely though, if we're going along with the manipulation theory), but after that he'd probably be locked away in the loony bin!

Although actually, at this point, I'm not sure I'd care how unbelievable the plot would have to be for the writers to bring Lucas back. Can we just erase the events of S9 from the shows history, please?
