So lets talk about the life and death and life and death of Charlotte Richards.
More than pretty much anyone else onLucifer, Charlotte was us.
We havent experienced literal Hell and come back changed.

And we havent tried on drool-worthy diamonds in our homes.
But most of ushavefelt the despair of unworthiness and the strain of unanswered questions.
Do we deserve Heaven?
Have our actions in life done more harm than good?
And even if we try our hardest, can we ever be truly worthy?
Charlotte was selfish, flawed, vulnerable, self-pitying.
And in the end, it was her imperfect humanity that saved her.
And he plans to get his relationship with Chloe back to normal, ASAP.
At least Chloe manages to find a shell casing, which pleases Lucifer.
My shenanigans leading to a break in the case.
That is quintessential Deckerstar.
Less playful is Charlotte, who asks Amenadiel how shell know when shes done enough good to earn salvation.
And now she fears hes killed again.
Then Mia accuses Clays wife of having an affair with the CEO of Clays sneaker business.
The vapors, yall!
The CEO directs their attention to a possible stalker, so Chloe makes plans to study the security footage.
Charlotte hasnt given up on the Clay angle and enlists an angel to help.
I…dont understand.
Didnt he want to die, like, three episodes ago?
Honestly, the only consistent thing about the Pierce character are his fuzzy motivations.
When she returns to Pierce empty handed, he accuses her of chickening out.
This distracts Maze (aww, still BFFs, sort of!)
so he can grab the discarded syringe to knock her out.
But the kiddo tells him it isnt fun to play the exact same game.
Then when he plays their faux-prom song, Chloe accuses him of making fun of them.
They just didnt quite come together to fully justify the rushed Pierce engagement until now.
But instead of Clay, he found Clays wife, and he panicked and shot her.
They smile at both being broken in their own ways.
Youdidchoose me, he says in wonder.
Chloe assures him, No, youre not.
And we cut to Charlotte in Amenadiels arms.
When Chloe, Lucifer, and Dan arrive on the scene, they find Charlottes body on the ground.
Chloe turns to Lucifer for comfort as Dan cradles the woman wearing his charm bracelet.
Then Lucifer notices an angel feather on the ground and looks up in surprise.
