First, some lower-level dramatics.

Thats when Linda finally busts Maze for calling dibs on someone she doesnt even care about.

Maze tells her to go to hell, and Charlotte calls it a day.

Also, she snaps Lindas perfectly nice gift ax in half, which isnt cool.

Then again, Im applying human logic to a demon, so what should I expect, really?

Ella attempts to cheer him up by reading compliments she collected about him from the rest of the staff.

(Every one is about his nice arms.)

Then Dan taps in and grabs a drink with Pierce at Lux.

It makes Dan wonder if they actuallyareall dust in the wind.

Aww, you broke Dan, Pierce!

So Dan calls in the most glass-half-full person he can think of: Amenadiel.

Amenadiel congratulates himself on destroying their alliance and passing his test.

Okay, now lets turn to the real divas of the night.

It leaves Chloe both hurt and confused, which are two of her three top emotions regarding Lucifer.

1 is exasperated, of course.)

Then Cece rushes off to make Axaras turmeric smoothie.

Oh, so Ceces the murderer, then.

Nobody making fresh turmeric shakes for someone else in Act 1 turns out to be innocent in Act 3.

Lucifer denies that hes scared; its just that everyone deserves a little Lucifer.

I say we let pinhead sing, Lucier says, giving us our episode title.

Chloe allows it but only because the killer wont be able to predict this move.

Also, she was grazed in the shooting fracas, and Lucifer barely acknowledges this.

The Lucifer/Axara pairing isnt a comfortable one.

(Let me tell you from bitter experience: TURMERIC STAINS.

My Harry Potter T-shirt has never been the same.)

Even attempting to run scales together at Lucifers piano ends in discordant noise.

I repeat: Lucifer said he wasnt in the mood for sex.

At least the investigations going well; Axaras managers fingerprints were found on the gun at the shooting scene.

Always look at the smoothie-making assistant first!

The scene somehow morphs into Lucifer singing, and they harmonize beautifully.

When their song finishes, Axara tells Lucifer that nobodys going to scare her out of the spotlight.

And then Cece pops up with a knife to scream at Lucifer for not protecting Axara.

She holds a bandage to his wound, and he says he did it to protect her.

Amenadiel and Pierce are still at Lux, and they watch this scene together.

When he sees the VIP tickets, he asks what time to pick her up.

Lucifer beats a hasty exit but watches jealously as the two of them leave together for the show.

This prompts Lucifer to swing by Lindas to announce, I think Ive made a horrible mistake.
