Well what a way to finish the first season of Lucifer, I really thought the handsome Devil was a goner that’s for sure. Don’t know about you guys but I am definitely looking forward to seeing where season two will take us and hopefully will answer some of the questions that the season finale left us with. Before we get into the final episode of Lucifer here is a brief recap of SN1-EP12.
SN1EP12 – ‘ #TeamLucifer ‘
When a member of a satanic church is killed. Lucifer is greatly disturbed that anyone would kill in his name. When it turns out Malcolm is trying to frame him for murder in the name of Amenadiel, Lucifer gets into a fight with him. Lucifer comes to realizes that it is Chloe who makes vulnerable to bodily injury.
SN1EP13 – ‘ Take Me Back To Hell ‘
Lucifer finds himself framed for the murder of the preacher that is lying on the floor in LUX with bullet to the head, Lucifer spurs the newbie cop to shoot him and as the newbie shoots Lucifer disappears into thin air and finds himself with his brother Amenadiel on the roof of the Roosevelt Hotel. The brothers have to team up in order to take Malcolm down the now at large dirty cop with a lot of blood on his hands and axe to grind with the world and nothing to lose with Lucifer’s Pentecostal Coin. Chloe finally learns what we knew all along that Dan was actually involved in the Palmetto case and that he lead her to believe she was crazy and seeing things that day.
Chloe and Dan work to clear Lucifer’s name but in order to do so Dan has to hand himself in for taking the weapon from evidence for Malcolm which was used to kill the preacher and to frame Lucifer for the murder and also for his involvement in the Palmetto case, might this be the end of the line for Dan or is there still more to his story? The brothers now playing nicely figure out where Malcolm is and pay him a visit, in awesome fight scene the brothers use some fancy foot and hand work all while taking on bit of lead, all the goons are down for the count when Malcolm encounters Amenadiel and stabs him with the dagger forged in hell, the only weapon that will take down an angel and a devil.
Maze takes a dying Amenadiel back to LUX and heals him with her only ticket back home, while Chole gets her hands on the money Malcolm left behind as was fleeing her bullets and finds Lucifer there too. Back at the station Chloe gets a call from Malcolm, he has kidnapped Trixie to force Chloe to turn over his money. Chole is instructed to come alone and when she gets there he turns Trixie over to her and gets his money but that’s not enough he wants Chole dead too but Malcolm is interrupted but Lucifer and in trying to save Chole and Trixi he is fatally shot by Malcolm. As Lucifer lays dying on the floor of an aircraft hangar, he pray to his farther God to save the two, promising to work for him again if he does. Lucifer farther answers him and resurrects him to full strength, but not before showing Lucifer a vision that greatly disturbs him.
Lucifer and Chole shoot Malcolm but he is not worried as he has his get out of hell free card, the Pentecostal Coin or does he? The look on terror on his face is priceless when he realizes he no longer possesses the coin and he is going back to hell for good. Lucifer clearly quit rattled from what he seen or didn’t see in his vision, tells the now recovered Amenadiel that he spoke with father and that he has asked him to recapture a soul that had escaped from hell in exchange. Amenadiel sees Lucifer is frightened and asks who exactly has escaped hell? Lucifer replies…… Mother!?
This episode definitely left me wanting more and has raised a few questions….. Where’s Maze? and why is Mother dearest in hell? This episode gives the perfect setup for season two, with tracking down Mother dearest the escapee from hell and will the brothers work together again to achieve the result, personally I hope so they make a pretty good team. I have really enjoyed this first season and each episode has kept me wanting more and Tom Ellis and Lauren German are outstanding together and are building a great emotional chemistry between Lucifer and Chloe which I look forward to watching evolve more throughout season two. This Devil has definitely left me wanting more and I cannot wait for season two.
Going thru my mind pulling out the bible related trivia that I have absorbed from reading stuff like Piers Anthony’s Incarnations of Immortality, lol. Is Mother perhaps Lilith? She was supposedly Adam’s first wife according to Jewish theology, but she also has been represented in the Bible (and in Anthony’s series, too!) as a demon. She figures pretty prominently in all sorts of historical cultures as a demon as well, apparently. OK, so I did do a quick Google to find that last bit lolol. Can’t wait to find out!!
