Was he saying though, the reason he finished with Maya and disappeared was that he went to prison for 8 years? Or was Lucas saying that he paid the price for leaving Maya and letting her think he was dead, as he ended up in prison for 8 years as a sort of punishment for what he did? I am just a bit confused here as surely the timeline is wrong. Wasn't Lucas in Africa 15 years ago, say 1995? Wasn't he in the Russian prison 2000-2008?

As much as I *loved* 'close your eyes' plus kiss, I did want to know what happened and went when he said he's been 8 years in prison. It just doesn't add up. He was *married* to Elizabeta (my fav love interest so far) when he was captured, let's say they were married 1 or 2 years. He hasn't seen Maya in 15 years, minus the 9-10 at least of being LN, we have the 4-5 years that the explanation supposedly was about.

I just thought he was lying when he spoke to Maya in his flat and why the sudden urgent urge to tell her everything? Lucas is up to something here. Maybe Maya is innocent ??

I thought he looked for Maya because he needs her in some way against Vaughn, like he reminded Lucas of her maybe as a threat and this 'relationship' is about 'I loved you, I remember, we can take up from last time'.

The scientist-daughter thing reminded me of DaVinci's code, the whole 'we keep a secret that must not fall into the wrongs hands and we will die if we have to'

I'd also like to know more about Dimitri, he might take a bigger role once the whole Vaughn-Lucas things develops BUT not before Tariq gets some development too.
