[spoilers] Lucas Discussion 2

RE: [spoilers] Lucas Discussion 2
I'm still not sure why Lucas cares for Maya more than his ex-wife?!

I re-watched 9.3 last night, and some of the dialogue really confused me. Basically, Maya goes to visit Lucas in his flat, and they have a discussion along the lines of:

Maya: “Did you kill someone?”
Lucas: “No”
Maya: “Did you hurt someone?”
Lucas: “No”
Maya: “Are you innocent?”
Lucas: “…no”

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but one of the reasons that Maya dislikes John is because of all the lies he has told her, regarding where he's been for the past 15 years and so on. So why does he choose to lie to her again? Surely he must realise this is all going to blow up in his face?

The one comment from the executive producer that especially annoyed me was:
If in episode 1, Lucas North, after he had got the suitcase from Vaughn had said “Harry, this man’s come back from my past and I’ve never told you this, I did this terrible thing”. If he had made that choice then to go to Harry, I think his life could have been very different. And there’s been moments all through the series actually, if you look back through the episodes where, okay, he had a choice, still then. He didn’t have to go down the road he went down. But for some flaw in his psychology, Lucas North couldn’t make those choices.

...what kind of an explanation is that, pray tell? For some "flaw in his psychology" which is never explained nor explored, Lucas suddenly loses all sense of logic and reason? The very tools which he uses day-in, day-out? Dodgy

I'm in the same position, binkie. I find myself getting angry at myself for letting this plot make me so angry!
