He tells Lucifer that he killed the Sinnerman because his former right-hand man went rogue.

He is who he is.

Okay, seriously, somebody just remind me what it is that Chloe sees in this guy?

Lucifer, upset with his Chloe interaction, visits Dr. Linda.

Lucifers not so great with the undercover legends, in other words.

Awww, RIP seal!

All of Ellas aggressive cheerfulness, which Charlotte notices immediately.

She advises Ella to get a thicker skin.

Yesss, put that old Charlotte Richards hauteur to use!

The news sends Lucifer scurrying from the room.

Maze congratulates her bestie for dodging that particular bullet.

But Lindas clearly uneasy about the whole situation.

Unfortunately, Maze is watching from a nearby table and stabs it in anger.

Oooh, this unfolding drama ought to be gooooood.

When Lucifer complies, Pierce grits out, I want to die.

You see, Pierce may suffer the pain of mortal wounds, but he always heals.

When Dans mic goes silent, Chloe pushes her way into the van, where she discovers Dan missing.

Then they complete the lovely ritual, tossing bundles of flowers into the ocean and splashing joyously.

This changes things for her, and she tells him to lead with that next time.

Hes thrilled that therellbea next time.

Lucifers shocked to hear that the murder wasnt personal, and Manny was a means to an end.

He is who he is, she shrugs, sipping her champers.

That night, Pierce stops by Ellas lab and she launches into him.

Ella, sweetheart that she is, immediately offers a hug, which he accepts.
