Oleg wasn't in prison. The FSB want him back, supposedly, because he carried out a rogue operation and tried to place the blame on the Russians. Whether or not the operation was actually a Russian plan with Oleg playing a part is unknown, at this point.

I would imagine Harry made the decision to give Oleg back. No matter how great his value might have been as a potential double agent and for intel purposes, I don't see Harry letting him loose near Lucas again. Too dangerous for Lucas and the rest of them, I'd think.

I thought the video images they got with Oleg were from a fire in a prison from which he escaped. Harry returning Oleg might have something to do with his wanting to keep whatever operation he has going with the Russians (total speculation) hushed, not necessarily about Lucas' well being.

I'm going to watch it again tonight (covering my eyes at the bad parts ) since there's nothing on TV and I'm too tired to do anything else. Yes, it's still tonight here in the USA and yes I'm a prude. I'll watch for some of the things members have discussed here that I didn't pick up on the first time.
