Series 9 Rumours & Speculation

The two of them swindled the Chinese at a gambling house or casino (there were chips in "that bag" Vaughan handed to Lucas). They blew up the casino to (a) cover their butts, and (b) escape, but also killed a heap of innocent people. Lucas/John did escape and changed his identity, Vaughan possibly got caught and was later exchanged or has been sent by the Chinese to track Lucas down (or something - sorry haven't quite worked it all out).

That actually sounds like a good storyline that I can believe in.

More like three fries short of a happy meal!

I'm not sure about the whole Lucas desperate to do anything to not be handed over to the Chinese considering that little mission into the Chinese embassy, he actually risked his own safety so that Dimitri could get out with the information needed. I know Lucas may hold fear and terror of being caught, but if he was that desperate, then he wouldn't have fought that hard to return to field status as an agent. He knew the risks of the job when he chose to return to the field.

The Maya thing still annoys me, gosh I may hate her even more than Sarah Caulfield!

Series 9.8 Spoiler: show

"somebody" either jumps or is pushed off a high rise building. It could be Lucas, who can no longer deal with the shame of what he's done, or he could do it to Harry and have us all tearing our hair out for 12 months. Either way, I don't think Lucas will survive, unless he's arrested and thrown in gaol. Harry will survive (somehow).

Thoughts, anyone?

Harry and Lucas is most likely the end scene, I believe that. Two strong characters in a final showdown, that's one hell of a way to end a series. Maybe now Harry will FINALLY talk with Lucas PROPERLY like he promised back in first episode of series 7?

Spoiler: show

I am hoping that if Lucas does fall, it's because he is ashamed and wants to end this so everyone else can stay safe. He will die a hero and I can take that.

Well if Harry falls, then the writers will have a hard time convincing me that Harry can survive from that high of a fall, unless Harry became superman when I wasn't looking!

You know what, Lucas dying or not, either way I really don't care what happens as long as Lucas goes out a hero and not some evil traitor who only cares about himself! I refuse to believe in this character asassination if they make Lucas into the bad guy!!
