I’m a bit disappointed they’re planning to bring back Mom next week. The dead should stay dead.

I think Maze is “hotter”, but Ella is definitely the cutest adult on the show, for sure! (Can’t really compete with Trixie, though…)

I wonder if that’s actually Mom. I doubt the “real” Mom would kiss Lucifer like that. I’m thinking it’s the woman whose body she stole.

I enjoyed last night’s episode, but the scenes with Amenadiel trying to be Lucifer were a bit cringe-worthy. I can’t believe somebody who used to be that cool would be that clueless and awkward when trying to pick up women. Sure, he might not have much experience, but still…

I’m thinking that it is actually the high-falutin’ lawyer, and not his actual mother, as well. I will be disappointed if it is actually “Mom” – as much as I enjoy watching Tricia Helfer in that role, they had come up with a really good resolution to her story-arc, and such an early “resurrection” would not be a good thing for the show.

And I agree with you about Amenadiel’s awkward scenes. Not good for the character at all!

Amenadiel definitely deserved the lecture Lucifer gave him. He was a badass in the first few episodes, but is mostly a whiny loser now.

Didn’t mom get banished to her own dimension? Being an immortal goddess it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to think she found a way to cross back. I try to avoid previews because they are so deceptive, so I can’t judge the kiss.

Ok I guess Maze is the hottest but not the cutest, Ella is cute + hot.

By the way I love the story possibilities that all Lucifer’s favors bring up. He must have dozens of people in his debt now.

The lieutenant had the best line of the episode

That L and T in front of my name means I dont have to explain myself.

Pretty big airs though for a mere Lt. and why would he be the one to pick the Rep and not the Capt?

As much as I’ve enjoyed the show from the start, I’m starting to get tired of Lucifer’s selfish, spoiled brat shtick. Ellis is a good actor, he was able to show that Lucifer was actually suffering even as he behaved so very very badly. Amenadiel spoke truth to Lucifer, Lucifer recognized some of the truth but couldn’t man up to it, and lashed out like a vicious teenager, speaking about his own need for constant attention as much as Amenadiel’s. He makes a little progress, matures a bit, and then throws it all away.

Why can’t near immortal beings with dozens or hundreds of years of existence behind them learn anything? It makes me think of Buddhist teachings that demigods and gods have a harder time achieving enlightenment than humans in the human realm.

I’m not sure, but aren’t police ranks more linear than military (and not as uniform department to department)? LT might be higher in the pecking order than it is in a military unit.

I think that is true but there would still be a police captain or even 2 over him directly and several other Lts.

[It looks like LA](http://www.lapdonline.org/inside_the_lapd/content_basic_view/1063) actually[has 2](http://www.lapdonline.org/hollywood_community_police_station)to [3 Capt in](http://www.lapdonline.org/pacific_community_police_station) most stations.

However none of this matters, a minor issue on a show with the Devil and other Angels. I’m not sure why I brought it up.

Well, that was a great episode! Ella was quite enticing (I can’t remember the word that Lucifer used to describe her) in her Vegas outfit. Loved seeing Candy again! And Chloe and Dr. Linda were great in their “drunk in Lucifer’s penthouse” scene. I did find it odd that Chloe wouldn’t want to spend her birthday with Trixie, though…

He said she was “Ravishing”, thus the jokes about radishes. But yes, Ella was awesone. I can’t believe Aimee Garcia is 38. She looks like she is in her mid to late 20s at most. She’s always cute and now we know she can also do high kicks too.

This episode was very funny and I enjoyed it immensly and it appears that Maze is back next week.

Great episode! I do wonder, though–do Chloe and/or Linda have keys or the code to the penthouse? It does seem like just about anybody can waltz in whenever they want to (Mom did it last season too).

Aimee does look quite a bit younger than 38, for sure! And I am looking forward to seeing Maze again…

It just occurred to me that both Candy and Ella have seen Lucifer’s casual dismissal of seemingly-fatal bullet-wounds. Do they know now that he is “the real deal”? I wonder…

I think Candy might know, I think Ella was not there to witness the bullets not hitting.

People who have seen it tend to forget it. First season, Dan saw Lucifer rise up from the dead, and there were other instances when he saw Lucifer do something supernatural. He seems to have completely forgotten that now.

I’m pretty sure you are right.

And while I’ve found Aimee Garcia to be quite comely since her first appearance, I thought it a little odd in this episode that she appeared a little older when she was dressed up than when she is in her normal clothes. Now I know why. There were lots of close-ups in this episode that I guess I hadn’t been paying close enough attention to in earlier episodes.

Still, I wished I had looked the male version of half that good at 38…or even 28.
