Vicious cycle, that.
She claims she thought it was common knowledge, butcome on, girl.
The Sinnerman insists that only he can lead them to her location.

Lucifer agrees, arguing that Obi-Wan Cant-See-Me is Maggies only hope.
Pierce calls it an obvious escape plan, so Lucifer reluctantly agrees to rule out other leads first.
Chloe and Lucifer question Maggies roller derby rival, Helena Handbasket.
She takes a seat in the Sin Bin, a.k.a.
However, shes got an alibi for that night.
(More interesting is the fact that Chloe issuperinto roller derby thanks to trips with Trixie.)
At the precinct, Chloe surprises Lucifer by agreeing that they need the Sinnerman to lead them to Maggie.
No problem there; Ella can talk for hours about losing her childhood corgi while Chloe tosses Pierces office.
Strategic pausing indicates that the note requests three EOD suits and a bomb box (??).
Finally, they have to deliver the ultimate distraction: a gift on Dans desk.
He immediately muses, Too nicely wrapped to be another severed head.
Oh, Daniel, take a look at your life.
So much for all of that scheming, you crazy kids!
By process of elimination, that makes Lucifer the Sinnermans kidnapper.
He turns one of his L.A. properties into his own Sin Bin to question the Sinnerman.
First step: Make the bandage less creepy by drawing on eyes, which end up being unsettlingly cartoonish.
The Sinnerman doesnt take any of it seriously, so to encourage better communication, Lucifer brings in Maze.
She works the Sinnerman over and eventually declares him to be 100 percent human.
Lucifer insults her by questioning her methods, including Nickelback on repeat?
Thats where I started!
Frustrated, Lucifer demands her knife, but she reminds him that angels arent allowed to kill humans.
(Remember, Amenadiel only got murder-adjacent and lost all his powers.)

Okay, before we leave the precinct, lets check in on this weeks most unlikely duo.
At first its awkward, but Trixie coaxes Charlotte into talking about her absent children.
Charlotte says shes too busy with work, and besides, her kids dont want to see her.
Oh, and also, Are you and my dad having sex?
Now back to the A-plot!
This upsets the Sinnerman, who begs Lucifer to exercise his free will and kill him.
It has to be you, he pleads.
Lucifers stunned to realize that this was the Sinnermans desire all along, and hes a pawn yet again.
But before he can extract answers, Pierce bursts into the room and unloads his gun into the Sinnerman.
Afterward, Chloe tells Pierce shes sorry it ended this way.
She doesnt have any sympathy for Lucifer, though.
Not cool, Pierce.
Its…its almost like hes carrying some kind of ancient evil within him.
He asks Pierce to join him at his empty club that night.
When Pierce arrives, Lucifer suggests that the Sinnerman didnt have an accomplice; hewasthe accomplice.
Very old, or very immortal.
And the only way to prove his theory is by driving a large knife through Pierces chest.
And look mildly perturbed as Pierce lays unmoving on the ground.
You may as well pour me one, too, Cain says.
