Published 2 years ago

[00:01:00] Lucifer looked over a deal that Goddess was orchestrating in order to get another piece of the flaming sword. Amenadiel told Lucifer that his life was in danger from Maze. Lucifer didn’t pay attention as they had more pressing issues at hand. Goddess gave the money to the seller without any proof that he had the piece of the flaming sword. Goddess realized her mistake and went with Lucifer and Amenadiel to check if she had been conned. They entered the back room and found a man lying on the floor. Lucifer offered to fix the problem by using Chloe and his job as a civilian consultant. Goddess offered to speed things up a bit.

[00:03:30] Maze went to Linda and discovered that Linda was in trouble with the ethics committee for helping Lucifer breakout of a mental institution. She blamed herself for using her real name. Maze told her that it was Lucifer’s fault. She offered to fix the problem and talk to Lucifer about their issues. Meanwhile, Goddess arrived at the precinct and tried to convince Chloe to check on one of her clients. Goddess did her best, and Chloe eventually agreed to come with them. Chloe discovered the body, and Lucifer suggested that Goddess leave everything to them; however, she wanted to stick around and help them with the case.

[00:07:50] Ella processed the crime scene as Chloe interviewed Goddess. She told Chloe that she wanted to help with the case given that it was her client that had died. Ella found no murder weapon; however, they found a phone that didn’t belong to the victim. They assumed that the phone belonged to the killer. Goddess approached Dan at the precinct and tried to seduce him to pass the time; however, he declined. Dan couldn’t figure out what Goddess wanted with him. She told Dan that she liked him. Ella found a lead with a record company logo found on the killer’s phone. The phone belonged to Chet Ruiz, the son of Bianca Ruiz, who was a client of Goddess. She volunteered to help them with the case and wanted Dan to go with her to Bianca’s party. Lucifer told Goddess that it wasn’t a good idea. Chloe volunteered instead.

[00:13:00] Lucifer went to Linda; however, he found Maze instead. She explained that Linda had lost her job for helping him. She wanted Lucifer to fix Linda’s problem immediately. Lucifer didn’t have a choice and accompanied Maze to Linda. Dan updated Chloe regarding Chet’s phone. Amenadiel went to the precinct looking for Goddess and Lucifer, but they had already left. Dan invited Amenadiel to kill some time while the tech team processed Chet’s phone. Chloe arrived at the party and planned to speak to Chet. Goddess told Chloe that she should seduce Chet, but Chloe responded that she didn’t plan on seducing Chet. Maze and Lucifer went to the chairman of the ethics review board in order to clear Linda’s name; however, things just got worse as Lucifer couldn’t lie and ended up telling the chairman that he had had sex with Linda.

[00:18:50] Goddess approached Bianca to tell her that Chet was a suspect in killing Zeke Moore. Bianca told Goddess that she would investigate. She went over to Chet and asked him what had happened. Chet explained that Zeke was trying to set up his own business on the side. Bianca told Chet that she was making 30% on that side business. She wanted to know why Chet was a suspect, and he told her that he had dropped his phone at the crime scene. Bianca invited Chet to a more private area to talk about the contents of his phone. Chloe followed them, but she got caught by Bianca.

[00:20:30] Dan and Amenadiel had a talk over lunch. Amenadiel laughed about Dan’s improv gig, but Dan told him how it became a big help in overcoming his problems. Amenadiel opened up to Dan a bit and told him that Lucifer was always the favorite. Dan wanted to know if he and Lucifer were competing for Charlotte Richards. Amenadiel told him that they weren’t competing for her sexually. Dan received a message that the team wasn’t able to open the phone. He paid for lunch and told Amenadiel that he liked him more than Lucifer. Back at the party, Bianca and her guards were on to Chloe, but she created an excuse, saying she was one of Chet’s fans. Bianca didn’t believe her, so she sang part of Chet’s song that Ella had played earlier at the precinct. Goddess was impressed with how Chloe escaped Bianca.

[00:23:30] Chloe called Dan and told him the importance of Chet’s phone. Meanwhile, Maze and Lucifer got into a fist fight with each other because Maze blamed him for all the misery he caused to other people. Lucifer called for a timeout so that they could get a breather since they had already wrecked the benches outside the chairman’s office. Lucifer told Maze that he hadn’t known she was so mad at him. Maze explained that she was upset because he was going to leave her behind and go back to heaven. Lucifer explained that he wasn’t going to stay in heaven. Maze realized that Lucifer was playing his own angle. He had his own plans for once he got back to heaven. Lucifer thought that Maze finally understood what he was planning; however, she told him that everything had gotten even worse.

[00:26:30] Ella was ecstatic when she found out that Chet’s phone could be the key to taking down the whole Ruiz empire. She told Chloe and Dan that they only needed time in order to open Chet’s phone. Chloe suggested that they check Chet’s profile in order to come up with meaningful number combinations to try to open the phone. Lucifer and Maze spoke to Linda about what had happened. She asked them if they had killed the chairman because they were both covered in blood. Lucifer explained that they had fought each other, which resulted in a bloody mess. Lucifer asked Linda why Maze was still mad at him; Linda went straight to the point since she wasn’t in therapist mode. Linda explained that Maze is upset because he used her. Lucifer explained that he had used Maze for the greater good of their stay in L.A.

[00:28:00] Linda added that he didn’t think about her feelings and that Maze felt abandoned after finding out that Lucifer planned to go back to heaven. Lucifer knew that Maze’s feelings hadn’t bothered her before; however, things had changed. Lucifer left Linda as she packed up her things. Maze promised that she would take care of things. Bianca went to Goddess and told her that she had what she wanted. Bianca made a deal with Goddess. She needed Chet’s phone in exchange for the artifact. Goddess told Bianca that her request was impossible. Bianca responded that she would find a way, or the artifact would be lost forever. Goddess went to the precinct and tried to get the phone. Ella received a call from her brother and left Goddess with the phone.

[00:31:50] Goddess was about to leave when Chloe arrived and told her to start explaining. Chloe went to Lucifer and told him about everything. Goddess told Chloe that she was Lucifer’s stepmom. Lucifer had to improvise as Chloe told him what Goddess had told her. Chloe didn’t completely trust Goddess and sensed something was off with her. Goddess went to see Bianca to give her Chet’s phone. Bianca ordered her men to test the phone. Goddess shorted her wire so that Chloe wouldn’t be able to hear her deal with Bianca. She received a key to a safety deposit box. Bianca had hidden the artifact inside the box. Chloe ordered the police to storm the building in order to assure Goddess’s safety. Lucifer tried to stop her; however, she had already given the order. Lucifer rushed in before Chloe in order to save Goddess.

[00:36:00] Goddess gave Lucifer the key before Chloe could search her. Chloe cleared Goddess of any suspicion as she wasn’t able to find anything on her. Lucifer brought Goddess and Amenadiel the contents of the safety deposit box. He pulled out a Sumerian book about the flaming sword. Amenadiel told Goddess that he could translate the book within a few days; however, she didn’t have the luxury of time. Amenadiel and Lucifer wondered why Goddess kept rushing to go back to heaven. Maze confronted the chairman of the ethics review board in order to restore Linda’s job. Meanwhile, Goddess met up with Chet to ask if there were other artifacts aside from the book. Chet stabbed Goddess and blamed her for what had happened to his mother.

[00:40:30] Goddess pulled the knife out of her abdomen. She accidentally killed Chet as he was burned by the light from her wound. Back at Lux, Amenadiel found a clue in the book, which stated that God had broken the sword into three pieces, the blade, the medallion, and the key. Amenadiel read that God gave the key to his favorite son. He thought that the key was Lucifer’s ring; however, it was his necklace all along. Lucifer told Amenadiel that God had entrusted the key to him.
