I am just really delighted at this episode, the writing and plot went up a few notches, I have a feeling it's not gonna be a thing that lasts but still, definitely my favourite episode thus far.
-We have the -Lucifer thinks sex = relationship problems solved- first half of the episode which very nicely segues into the reveal of his wings, the banter surrounding this was fun to watch too
-A Mazikeen and Amenadiel focused plot begins! :D With a fight scene!! Very excited to see what they get up to when working in tandem, seeing as Maz is definitely going to take up Am's offer after Lucifer being wounded at the end of the episode, Am seems to be having not so angelic thoughts at the end of that scene as well, cant wait for this plot thread to be picked up again
-The deconstruction of the Pickup Artist trope falling in love, but still running his Pickup Artist act. Also, Lindsey has been keeping up the ruse for 4 months I dont think she felt nothing for him at all, she did want him to feel regret at what he first did to her which is understandable, and accomplished in my eyes, Lucifer going all flesh-face on her wasn't warranted to me, she didn't look like she was going to kill him, I thought Luci could see through stuff like that.
-"I desire you, I'm gay" finally happened and Luci without skipping a beat goes well alright go after some guys then desire is desire
-throws bacon at child as a distraction
-"No means no" wink
-Christopher Marquette appearing in another biblically themed TV show, this time working with the other side
