Lucas Eugene Scott is a fictional character from the CW television series One Tree Hill, portrayed by Chad Michael Murray.[1] Lucas is Nathan Scott’s half-brother and former rival, and must balance his tumultuous relationships with his father Dan Scott and the two females in his life, Peyton Sawyer and Brooke Davis. Later, his passion for another woman, Lindsey Strauss, engulfs him and he almost marries her. Lucas is the brother-in-law of Haley James Scott, half-brother and cousin to Lily Roe Scott, and uncle (as well as godfather) to Jamie Scott, and father of Sawyer Brooke Scott.[2]
[edit] CastingChad Michael Murray was the first person to be cast for One Tree Hill.[3] The producers were originally unsure as to who Murray would play. Series creator Mark Schwahn wanted him to play the character of Nathan Scott since Murray had played a bad guy several times before, and he felt it was only natural to give him this role.[3] Murray, however, wanted to portray Lucas due to a connection he felt with the character. He felt that he could inhabit the character as the two share several similarities. Murray's mother left him when he was young, and Lucas was abandoned by his father. Murray's passion for the role led the producers to cast him as Lucas.[3] Murray had turned down the lead role of Ryan Atwood in The O.C. to accept the role as Lucas Scott.[4] [edit] Fictional character biographyLucas Scott is the son of Dan Scott and Karen Roe, and the nephew of Keith Scott; he has a younger half brother, Nathan Scott, on his father's side and a younger half-sister, Lily Roe Scott, on his mother's side (she is also his cousin through Keith). He was raised by his mother after his father abandoned them to marry Deb Lee, Nathan’s mother. His uncle Keith, who always had feelings for Karen, took over the father figure role. Lucas grew up in Tree Hill, a small North Carolina town along with his best friend and now sister-in-law Haley James Scott.[2] His wife is Peyton Sawyer, and he shares a close bond with ex-girlfriend Brooke Davis, Peyton's best friend since age 9. Lucas's close bond with his nephew, James Lucas Scott, mirrors the relationship between Keith and Lucas. He is interested in literature, with two novels to his credit, and basketball, having coached Nathan's junior college team and the Tree Hill Ravens. [edit] Season 1At the beginning of season one, 16-year-old Lucas Scott is recruited by coach Whitey Durham to play for the Ravens basketball team after most of the players are suspended for drunk-driving. He soon has troubles with his half-brother Nathan, who is also the Ravens captain, because Nathan wants to remain the star of the team and feels threatened by Lucas's arrival.[5] Encouraged by Dan, who also wants Lucas off the team, Nathan and his teammates make life difficult for Lucas, on one occasion kidnapping him and throwing him into a ditch. Nevertheless, Lucas is determined to stay on the team (although he removes the name "Scott" from his jersey). Lucas is also attracted and shares a deep emotional connection with Peyton Sawyer (Nathan's girlfriend), who is disgusted by Nathan's behavior towards his brother and breaks up with him. Nathan retaliates by pursuing Lucas's best friend Haley, who agrees to tutor Nathan in return for him leaving Lucas alone. Lucas and Peyton almost have a fling, but she halts it when Lucas reveals the depth of his feelings towards her, as Peyton is too afraid for anything serious.[6] Lucas then starts seeing Peyton's best friend Brooke Davis, causing Peyton to realize the mistake she has made.[7] After a night spent in a motel together, Lucas and Peyton experience an emotional moment wherein the two succumb to tempatation and kiss and they almost have sex; however, they stop when they think of Brooke, as her necklace gets tangled in Peyton's hair.[8] Despite stopping before, they begin meeting up with each other behind Brooke's back to kiss and spend time together. Haley finds out that Lucas is cheating on Brooke and this, along with the fact that Haley is seeing Nathan, causes a rift in her and Lucas's friendship. On the night that Peyton is about to tell Brooke about their relationship, Lucas and Keith are involved in a car accident; Keith had been drinking as he was nervous about seeing Karen who had gone to Italy for 6 weeks. Lucas is saved by Dan, who is present at the scene, and for the first time in the series calls Lucas his son so that Lucas can get immediate treatment.[9] Lucas wakes up from a short coma and makes up with Haley and to an extent, Nathan. He breaks up with Brooke to be with Peyton, but Brooke discovers everything and ends her friendship with Peyton and Lucas.[10] Lucas's feelings towards Dan are challenged when he learns that Dan wanted joint custody of Lucas, but Karen refused. He also finds himself in Dan's position when Brooke claims to be pregnant, although this turns out to be false as Brooke was lying to seek her revenge on Lucas for breaking her heart. Feeling frustrated at not being able to play basketball due to his his injury, Lucas goes to a bar where he meets Nicki, and they have a one-night stand. When Peyton finds out about this she feels hurt and rejects Lucas and renews her friendship with Brooke.[11] Lucas's relationship with Nathan improves as Lucas realizes that he got a better deal than Nathan, who is damaged as a result of being raised by Dan. In the final game of the season, the Ravens are coached by Dan as Whitey is in the hospital. The Ravens lose after Dan allows the still-injured Lucas to play. Afterwards, Lucas and Nathan are united in standing up to Dan, and Nathan removes the "Scott" from his shirt. Wanting a fresh start, Lucas decides to leave town with Keith. Lucas and Nathan have a final conversation where Nathan calls Lucas his brother and Lucas says "I'll miss you, little brother". Before leaving with Keith, he goes to say goodbye to Haley and discovers that she and Nathan have got married.[12] [edit] Season 2Lucas and Keith return to Tree Hill after Dan has a heart attack.[13] Lucas tries to make up for his behavior with Peyton and Brooke and becomes friends with both of them. He also starts seeing a new girl named Anna Taggaro, but they break up amicably when Anna is confused about her sexuality.[14][15] Lucas realizes that he has romantic feelings for Brooke and begins to focus on building on a relationship with her, even though she is seeing Anna's brother Felix.[16] Lucas discovers that he has inherited Dan's heart condition, but does not tell anyone except Dan.[17] After discovering that Keith's new girlfriend Jules was actually hired by Dan to break Keith's heart, Lucas agrees to move in with Dan if he leaves Keith alone and pays for Lucas's heart medication. This sets Lucas at odds with his mother as she can't believe that Lucas would want to live with Dan rather than her.[17] It also causes a new rift between Lucas and Nathan as Nathan feels that Lucas is replacing him and is bitter about Haley's departure to go on tour singing. Lucas and Karen are reconciled when she learns half of the reason he is staying with Dan, which is to protect Keith. This plan to protect his uncle fails when Jules leaves Keith at the altar and Keith leaves town after discovering that Lucas and Karen knew that she was hired by Dan.[18] Lucas discovers Deb's painkiller addiction and decides to avenge all of Dan's victims. He find a stash of cash and an incriminating ledger in the attic at Dan's dealership and plans to expose Dan's illegal dealings, but ultimately fails as Dan has also incriminated Deb.[18] Dan then reveals that the whole thing was a set-up to test Lucas's loyalty, which Lucas failed. As a result, he loses Dan's college fund for him (which Dan had been saving since Lucas was a baby) and even his heart medication. Nathan also ends his friendship with Lucas after discovering that Lucas had planned to bring Dan down and visited Haley behind Nathan's back in an attempt to patch up her and Nathan's marriage. Lucas does, however, kiss Brooke in the season finale and confesses that he wants to be with her, but she still leaves for California to spend the summer with her parents. Ultimately, it is just Lucas and a broken hearted Peyton (after boyfriend Jake left her) for the summer and the last shot is of the two of them sharing a very meaningful hug on the beach. [19] [edit] Season 3After the summer, Lucas remains at odds with Dan, who accuses Lucas of starting the fire at the dealership that nearly killed him. Dan tries to strangle Lucas on the basketball court, but Peyton, having learned the truth from Lucas, tells Dan that Lucas actually saved him from the fire. Lucas also protects the true arsonist: Deb. Lucas and Nathan continue to argue over Nathan's treatment of the returned Haley and have a public fight after Lucas accuses Nathan of being just like Dan. Lucas struggles to pay for his heart medication and steals money from his mother, which Haley sees, forcing Lucas to tell her about his condition. Lucas begins a non-exclusive relationship with Brooke and uses Rachel Gatina to make her jealous, but a series of events leads Brooke to sleep with Chris Keller, tearing them apart.[20] Later, he forgives her after she gives him the 82 letters she wrote to him during her vacations and didn't send.  Keith returns, and he and Karen finally get together and become engaged. Keith also plans to adopt Lucas. Tragedy strikes when Lucas's former friend Jimmy Edwards brings a gun to school and fires it, accidentally hitting Peyton and causing a lockdown. Lucas goes into the school to rescue Peyton where he finds her hiding out in the library. He stays with her after she asks him not to leave to get help. To keep her conscious he asks her about a happy memory where she tells him about a snowfort her and Brooke had built when they were little kids. She then professes her love for him and the two share a kiss as Peyton fears she will not live. Lucas realizes she is in serious trouble and he makes a break for it, carrying Peyton out of the library, when they are confronted by Jimmy with the gun. Keith appears and persuades Jimmy to let Lucas and Peyton go. Jimmy then turns the gun on himself, not having meant to hurt anyone, but Dan, jealous of Keith's relationship with Karen and believing that Keith was the one who tried to kill him in the fire, shoots Keith dead, making it look as though Jimmy killed Keith and then himself. Lucas is devastated by Keith's death and tears apart the flowers outside Jimmy's locker. However, he later attends Jimmy's funeral and comforts Jimmy's mother, knowing that it is what Keith would have wanted. Karen is also inconsolable and blames Lucas for going into the school. After seeing the effect of Keith's death on his mother, Lucas decides to finally tell Whitey, Nathan, and Karen about his heart condition and quits basketball. He goes on a university tour with his mother and realizes that he wants to become a writer. He is also Nathan's best man for his second wedding to Haley. He and Brooke break up for good during the wedding when Brooke learns that Lucas kissed Peyton during the school shooting. [edit] Season 4Lucas tries to get Brooke back, but realizes it is not what she wants and not what is meant to be. He saves Peyton from an internet stalker "Psycho Derek". He also helps Karen, who is pregnant with Keith's baby, and plans on going to the University of North Carolina when he graduates so that he can be close to home in case she needs him. Dan also helps Karen with her pregnancy, wanting to make amends for Keith's death. After talking with Dan, Karen persuades Whitey to let Lucas play 15 minutes a game, so as not to let him miss out on something he loves. Brooke and Lucas try again but realize they are over, prompting Peyton to confess her feelings for Lucas. Lucas then discovers that Nathan is planning to throw the state championship game because of his debts. Lucas plans to prevent this and deliberately fails to take his heart medication in order to play better, but Nathan is inspired by learning that he is going to have a son and they win, with Lucas making the winning shot.  During the celebration, Lucas, after receiving Brooke's blessing, sees Peyton and tells her that she is the one he wants standing next to him when all his dreams come true after he has a flashback of the first time he won in the Pilot against Nathan. The two then share a long awaited kiss. They become a couple at the after-party, but happiness is short-lived when Haley gets hit by a car and Lucas tries to tell the paramedics what happened only to suffer a heart attack. As he is in the hospital, Lucas dreams that he is visited by Keith, who shows Lucas what life would have been like if he had been a lesser person. In the end, Lucas realizes that he has to go back to his life because he never told Peyton that he loves her. Lucas wakes up and begins a relationship with Peyton. Thanks to an assignment, Lucas bonds with Glenda Farrell, who he entrusts with the first draft of his novel. On the night of the Prom the two discuss the shooting in the school library where Peyton was shot. He confesses, that at the time, he was afraid to hear what Peyton had to say because he knew it was true, and he felt the same way. He then tells Glenda he always knew he loved her. After the failed attempt of Prom in Tree Hill High, the teens go on a rescue mission to save Mouth who has become stranded in Honeygrove. They all then crash the local Prom, where he and Peyton have sex with each other for the first time.

Lucas discovers the truth about Dan thanks to witness Abby Brown. He attacks Dan after walking in on him and Karen kissing and tells Karen that Dan killed Keith, but Dan convinces Karen that Lucas is delusional and needs help.

Karen collapses and Lucas fires a warning shot at Dan, telling him not to touch her. Karen is rushed to hospital with eclampsia and has an emergency c-section.

The next day, they go to the wedding chapel, but the tackiness of the place convinces them that this was the wrong decision.

They play fun little games with each other, like criticizing each other's choices in food and music to putting a line of tape down the center of the house to split it into two. Eventually, the two decide to accept their differences since it is what makes them such an amazing couple.[38] After the two resolve problems and fears of moving in together, Lucas is offered a movie deal by Julian Baker.

In a later episode, he shows up to a doctor's appointment, surprising Peyton. They get to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time.[41] Fearing for Peyton's life if she has the baby, Lucas suggests she has an abortion. He is hesitant to have the baby, because he does not want the baby to grow up without a mother like Peyton did.

When Peyton says that it is all "just in case", he replies that there is no "just in case" - that Peyton will be fine. Peyton wants to move up the wedding to before she gives birth. Lucas thinks that it is because she believes she will die and again seems upset. While Peyton is at her baby shower, Lucas and Jamie work on her car, that was damaged in the accident. The two go through the box that Peyton had left for the baby and Jamie tells Lucas that he is like Jamie's own personal Keith.
