No, it doesn't make sense, because you can't just pretend to show loyalty or morality, there are simple things that you cannot fake. Who they portrayed John to be, this cold-blooded killer who lies and deceits, can never just turn all that off and be the most loyal dependable agent. You can always pretend, you can't change who you are inside. Lucas risked his safety running around saving London when he could have easily ran off and left Ros and Connie. Lucas risked his sanity and safety to run off to Moscow to help Harry clear his name when he could have easily pretended to be captured and let Harry take the fall. He ran into that building trying to save Ros when he didn't have to. He was clearly upset over the young teen Dean's death when he didn't need to be. He fought against Oleg Dasharvain to came through for MI5 when he didn't have to be. And there was never any indication he betrayed MI5 in those 8 years in Russia either. If Lucas was truly just John pretending to be good, then all those moments, all those shown loyalty would never be there. John wouldn't have cared. And that is my issue. RIP Carter Hall ~ Hawkman |
