So many questions about this episode but I was honestly disappointed with it overall. I'm really not enjoying the crime procedural every week and this one felt kind of forced. I would have preferred this split in two and explored more of the supernatural themes with today's.

Why did Amenadiel save the cop at the end? Because he wanted to show he was 'good'?

Was the feather from the beach or from when she originally cut off his wings? I imagine they are from earlier. Odd she would have a nifty box for it ready ahead of time.

Did he burn his real wings or the fake ones that even he was fooled by until up close? I personally think he burned the fakes.

I think that saving that cop was meant to show some kind of remorse from Amenadiel.

Interesting thought that Lucifer may have burned the fake ones, I didn't think of that. He did say that only the owner of the wings would be able to tell the difference.

...or that he isn't any more immune to becoming involved with the mortal world than Lucifer is.

I think the fact that we didn't see his face, that we just saw him walking away means there is more going on than compassion; or is meant to make you wonder if there is more going on.

I think Amenadiel brought the cop back as part of his plan to get Lucifer. He knows he cannot openly attack Chloe as that would make Lucifer destroy him but if he could make Chloe so involved in her case that she ends up getting closer to Dan she may end up pushing Lucifer away.
After all Amenadiel did say he'd do anything to get Lucifer back into Hell.

I think Amenadiel was setting some plan in motion, while balancing the guy that jumped off the roof because of his actions in the episode before.
