Lucifer removes his wings; Linda worries that Lucifer is neglecting his own well-being; Lucifer and Chloe must put their differences aside to solve a case that Lucifer has taken a sudden interest in; Detective Pierce’s past is revealed.

Lucifer continues its big picture story while it also gives us an interesting “who did it” that involves comedians and joke stealing. It’s a decent crime and there’s lots of twists and turns but that’s not the most entertaining aspect of it all.

The episode does a solid job of continuing the big picture story of puppet master out there that Lucifer’s looking for and that search also has to do with the new character Detective Pierce. I want to see more of what that’s about which is a good thing as the character wasn’t too likeable to start. I think there’s more there, but we’ll see where it’s taken.

But, the entertaining aspect of the episode is really Lucifer and the rest of the characters as they do some stand up and their usual quips. Detective Douche especially gets a bit of a spotlight and Ella is her usual energetic self. The cast of this show is really where it’s at and they’re able to take stories which in any other way would be rather boring and make them fun and something I look forward to.

There’s also some solid introspection about Lucifer himself and his newly returned wings. A mystery is turned into a character study of sorts and the episode ends in a way where we look to get the devilish Lucifer we like back. The season is a solid one so far with its two episodes and usual, it’s getting better with each one.

Overall Rating: 8.0
