love the bonding between Dan and Lucy

Really liked the kiss at the end, and the soft version of "This Year's Love."

Yesss

It was fun to see Chloe and Amenadiel work together, I think this might have been the first time we've seen that

All the nuns falling for Amenadiel

Loved watching Amenadiel being admired by the nuns. Lucifer gets different kinds of attention (and loves it), but Amenadiel gets the awestruck worship and fascination.

Loved it!

Loved detective Amenadiel. How all the nuns admired him.

It was fun watching Lucifer and Dan working together, and Lucifer learning that shortcuts aren't the answer. And actually getting along.

Linda! Her story about her daughter was so sad, how she just ran away from her. I loved that Maze already knew how to find her and helped Linda to meet her, even though she wasn't ready to reveal who she was to her daughter.

Maze going to see her mother only to learn that she has died. Aww. How much more heartbreak can she take. I liked the scene where she gives Linda the papers to give her daughter the choice to find her biological parents. Love Maze and Linda's friendship so much.

Amenadiel learning that the nun was only seeing her faith reflecting back at her and offering to Chloe that what others see in Lucifer isn't him it's their own desires. Thus, because Chloe was immune to his charms, she sees who he really is. And so there is no celestial magic between them, it's all real. I loved that Amenadiel then has a theory that it's not Chloe who makes Lucifer vulnerable, he chooses to be vulnerable around her. Which totally makes sense. I love this revelation, it makes so such sense and I'm glad that this has truly helped Chloe feel that she is not just a 'thing' and that she does have control of her life.

The ending scene with Chloe and Lucifer, both choosing to be vulnerable around each other. The kiss. Finally.

I've just spent the last few weeks binging this show. Friends have been telling me to watch it forever and I finally had some time.

The show really hit its stride coming to Netflix. The episodes are so damn tight!

This episode was no exception and the end, because who isn't a Chloe/Lucifer fan?!, was delightful.

Though, it does look like Tom holds back when he kisses his co-star, which would, literally, be my only complaint.

And it was nice to see Amenadiel get some detective time with Chloe.

Nice one!

Amenadiel showing his wings to the murderer after he had admitted everything.

I love the theory about the angels reflecting back different aspects of the humans looking at them.

^ That is a nice one.
