I can't see Harry welcoming anyone but the Lucas he knew back.

Thanks for your nice comment about my crazy theory. I'm sure that after we see the final episode we will all be shaking our heads and murmuring "But of course... Why didn't I see that coming?"

Yeah, I can't see Harry leaving the real Lucas behind, especially considering he sounded so happy to bring Lucas home when he was talking to Adam at the beginning of Series 7. If this wasn't the real Lucas, I can't see Harry letting him have all this access and then risk him betraying the team.

I think so too that Lucas could be an identity that John assumed after he ran away to hide the truth about this terrible secret, and then maybe Harry picked him up afterwards.

But somehow I have a hard time that MI5 vetting didn't discover Lucas's big dark secret, surely he didn't hide it that well as a young man. It really makes me question MI5 security.

Well, I can only see a few ways for my reactions at the end of the series. It would either be "Of course, it now all makes sense and I am happy!" or "Nooooo Lucas is dead, but he still came through so I can take it" or "Noooooo Lucas is an evil traitor, I hate you writers!!!!!!"

Personally, I am hoping for a happy ending, I want to see my old school Spooks (Harry, Lucas, and Malcolm) team up together with their 90s style codes and take down Vaughn and the baddies!!!!!!
