[spoilers] Lucas. Just Lucas.

Lucas will resist Darshavin just as he had done in prison. The fact that Sarah and Ros were listening in couldn't be helped and therefore Lucas had to open up himself to obtain the codes, again sacrificing himself for the greater cause.

I agree, this only seems to further reinforce just how much Lucas is willing to risk and sacrifice for his country and his team. He is willing to push and confront his own demons from a most horrible past because he knows this country and his team need him to do so. If he has to bare his vulnerable side and risk it all, he will.

It's the same as when Harry asked him to remember back to his torture and Sugar-Horse, you can tell Lucas's obvious disdain and anger, but in the end he did what was asked of him at the high price of his own emotional suffering because Harry needed it, because he has to protect his country.

It's his full-on loyalty to his team and country that just makes Series 9 all the more of a contradiction, especially the whole John blowing up an embassy!
