I had noticed the way in which the baton was passed and I was very displeased. I couldn't keep that expression on my face for long as everyone started cheering for the final sprinters to reach the finishing line first.
Lucas had been made to stumble in the beginning since Aidan didn't give a warning while passing the baton and had almost crashed into him. He hadn't been very fair in passing it to him either as he was far away and Lucas had to go as near as he could without treading behind the line. At that moment, I was sure that the audience would put on the blame on Lucas if he didn't make it, even if it wasn't his fault.
As he had been the last to race, it was obvious that trusting him for the end would be critical and difficult. I could already hear some people cursing him instead of judging the situation right. I couldn't side with Aidan for what he had done, but the audience loved him more because he was 'normal'.
