## Events Of Zorro Island

### Boom

Lucas was flagged as a suspect after his badge was found at the scene. Upon being spoken to, Lucas turned out to have been in the van, but he had escaped - alongside Rhea - before the explosion. Lucas then said that that was why Rhea wasn't dead, since she was still in the blast radius, but was only hit by shrapnel and knocked against the ground. He then went on to say that he had been in the ZIPD for a year, and wanted to become a detective, as he subtly suggested that his heroics be relayed to Chief Mendes, which Francesco agreed to do.

Lucas was spoken to again after it turned out that he had defaced Rhea's badge, as Lucas admitted that he was angry at getting no congratulations before, having helped the team on multiple occasions. He then went on to say that he had informed them about the drug outpost, discovered the famous car wreck, identified the bomb in the courthouse bombing and so much more, as he said that he received no recognition for what he had done, as he then said that he had attempted to clean Rhea's badge afterwards, but failed, feeling as if he had let himself down.

Lucas was found to be innocent when Kenny Rogers was arrested for the murder.

### Ships In The Night

Lucas was flagged as a suspect after Javier and the player found his badge in the abandoned arcade, as Lucas admitted to being the person who found Ellis and took her back to the station, not wanting to look suspicious and leaving them to come inside of their own accord. Lucas then said that he was probably stupid for doing that, as he apologised to the detectives and asked if he was a suspect again, which the detectives confirmed. He sighed, as he said that he would wait in the break room, leaving.

Lucas was spoken to again after the letter to him that had been drafted by Adora was found in his house, as it turned out that Lucas had been "stalking" the victim. Alita was quick to his defence, however, saying that she had asked him to keep an eye on Adora by guarding her house, but had forgotten to tell Adora herself about this, causing confusion among the family and leading Adora to think that Lucas was stalking her. Lucas promised the detectives that he was not, in fact, stalking her, as he left to file some reports.

Lucas was found to be innocent when Cruz Alvarez was arrested for the murder, as Chief Mendes and the player later decided that Lucas could be the precinct's beat cop, which meant that he would initially answer any emergencies on their behest.
