City of Angels?- Thank you so much for another great reaction, for the first of this season's three bonus episodes! I really love this episode and for me, it's another one of my favorite episodes this season too. I just absolutely love seeing how it is Lucifer comes to remain on Earth once and for all, instead of allowing Amenadiel to take him back to Hell like he's always allowed his brother to do upon God's orders in all the times he's come to visit Earth before in order to get away from Hell for awhile. This episode is absolutely fantastic!! I think that my only real nitpick I have with this episode... while I really love it and consider it one of my favorite episodes from this season, the placing of this episode within the lineup order is so strange. Which of course is no fault of the episode itself, but the fault of whoever chose to place this episode in the viewing order it was placed in. If the events shown throughout this episode were shown somehow through Lucifer's or Amenadiel's memories while they worked together to solve a resent day case of some sort that could fit into the overarching storyline, then it might be fine for this episode to be set between episodes ten and twelve. But after the previous episode... The Sin Bin and especially upon its major cliffhanger between Lucifer and Cain, City of Angels? just feels a little bit out of place. Especially because it cuts in between learning about Pierce really being Cain and the true Sinnerman, and Lucifer finally getting some answers out of Cain at last. Nonetheless... I give this episode a 10 because I really do love this episode a lot. As for my favorite scenes throughout this episode... My absolute favorite moment is a very small, if not very subtle moment some people watching this episode just might miss, or possibly even gaze over if they're not watching this episode very closely. Nearly halfway into this episode... Lucifer and Amenadiel arrive at the fighting ring at the building which will eventually come to be LUX, at the same time Chloe arrives there as well so she can question a suspect in her investigation. I absolutely love, love, love the moment Lucifer and Chloe appear standing side by side one another, yet with their backs turned towards the other so they don't see one another. However, in this moment... Lucifer suddenly begins to sense something he clearly doesn't understand, and he's drawn to turn towards Chloe and looks at her out of confusion while she remains facing the opposite direction. I love that while Lucifer and Chloe have yet to meet, Lucifer still senses very different about the mystery woman standing nearby, only to shrug it off when she walks away from him and his brother calls to him again. This moment is beautiful, and it goes to show just how fated Lucifer and Chloe are to be together. Marvelous!!! The second of my favorite moments comes towards the ending, just before Lucifer steps out into the fighting ring to fight against his brother. I love this moment and their overall battle against one another, because this is the first time we can see how Lucifer painfully comes to understand just how Amenadiel and all of his brothers and sisters truly think of him upon Amenadiel callously, if not cruelly calling him evil and the Devil because he had rebelled against them and their father, causing God to cast him out of Heaven and into Hell. Without trying to understand Lucifer for who he really is, all of the angels have come to believe the false stories told about him being all evil and a monster. The look in Lucifer's eyes and on his face in this moment is absolutely heartbreaking, until he then suddenly hides his pain like he always has, and allows his absolute rage against his brother to escape when Lucifer forces Amenadiel to fight him instead of the other fighter, all to try to prove to Amenadiel that he would be able to beat him in any fight out of anger and upon Lucifer finally accepting himself as the Devil that the world sees him as even though he really isn't evil like everyone believes him to be. I just love how this is the real start of Lucifer's and Amenadiel's rivalry that we came to see all throughout season one. Absolutely phenomenal!!! :) In regards to Lucifer's fight against Amenadiel itself... I really, really love this overall fight between the brothers. It's heartbreaking seeing them both come apart so completely and in such a tragic way upon them turning against one another. One... because while this episode takes place five years earlier from the Pilot episode, it's still sad to see them come apart after we've grown accustomed to seeing Lucifer and Amenadiel as brothers again ever since season one's finale. And two... because you can really see the pain behind Lucifer's eyes as he's fighting Amenadiel, urging his brother to fight him and beat him much like he does back in season one's episodes... Wingman and #TeamLucifer, while Lucifer fights him back with all his strength until Amenadiel gives up and taps out in order to end their fight upon allowing his pride take over and thinking himself to be better than his brother because he isn't a rebellious son. Their fight is brutal and very sad. You can see Lucifer's pain behind his anger against Amenadiel, and you can also see Amenadiel really begin to show true hatred towards Lucifer throughout their fight as well. Their fight is brilliantly shot and so well acted by both Tom Ellis ad DB Woodside, and I absolutely love it!!! But to back up a little... This episode begins with Lucifer first arriving on Earth five years before the events that take place within season one's Pilot episode, when Lucifer and Chloe meet for the first time upon Delilah being killed by her music producer. And he's actually dressed in a very outdated suit that appears to be a suit people would have worn in the 70s, rather than in the five years before the present day when this show is first set in, in 2016. A suit that very much does resemble John Travolta's suit shown in the 70s movie... Saturday Night Fever. Indicating that Lucifer hasn't come to Earth since sometime in the 70s. Lucifer quickly remedies his clothing mix-up once he quickly realizes people are no longer wearing the same clothes he wore since his last visit to Earth... obviously some time in the 70s, then very swiftly comes into sleeping with a number of women just as you would expect of the Devil to act, as another show of rebellion against God. It isn't too long before Amenadiel eventually comes down to Earth as well, in order to bring his brother back to Hell just as he has constantly been tasked to do ever since Lucifer had started coming up to Earth, more and more frequently. Lucifer reluctantly agrees to let him just as he always has in all the times he's come to Earth beforehand, until the ending when he chooses to accept the Devil he has now come to believe himself to be, but he asks his brother for a chance to say goodbye again to his guests, to which Amenadiel surprisingly agrees to. I suspect that he gives Lucifer this opportunity because Lucifer has always complied with his request to allow him to take him back to where he belongs. However, when Amenadiel steps outside to give his brother time alone with the women, he is suddenly shot by a human wearing a ski mask, who had also just shot and killed his intended target, just because Amenadiel was standing in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Then... if this isn't bad enough, the killer also steals Amenadiel's necklace he's always worn... the very necklace we now know to be the third piece to the Flaming Sword. Although, at this point in time, his necklace has always just meant a lot to him because it is merely a gift from his father. Once Amenadiel comes to, this unforeseen and unfortunate event forces Amenadiel to enlist Lucifer's help to get back his necklace, after his attempt to go to the police for help in getting it back instead fails him because he's completely clueless on how to act around humans. Which is when he and Chloe meet for the first time, as we see Chloe as just an officer, before she eventually came to be the detective we know her to be when she and Lucifer meet for the first time within the Pilot episode. However, Lucifer doesn't agree to help his brother out of the goodness of his heart. Because he's still hurt by his brother's constant defense of their father and by Amenadiel blindly choosing to side with God. Instead, Lucifer demands that Amenadiel make a deal with him... a favor to be granted to him once Lucifer will later come up with exactly what he desires. And even though Amenadiel is reluctant to make such a deal, he comes to agree out of desperation so he can find his necklace that means so much to him again. I really love seeing Lucifer and Amenadiel working together to find the necklace in various ways throughout this episode. I love seeing them go to a party where Lucifer flawlessly begins to play the piano for the first time. As cringey as certain parts of the next scenes can be, I love seeing them find themselves at a photoshoot where Lucifer meets Misty Canyons... a famous porn star Lucifer is infatuated with much to Amenadiel's disliking. I love seeing them eventually find their way to a fighting ring where LUX will eventually come to be upon Lucifer coming to lease the building, as they meet someone who can help them find the jogger's killer and Amenadiel's necklace where Lucifer cons Amenadiel into becoming a new fighter for this thug. And I love seeing Lucifer work to train Amenadiel for his upcoming fight by helping him to appear as weak as any human. So funny!! All throughout their investigation... I especially love seeing how certain aspects of Lucifer's life we know comes about... starting with how he comes to love playing the piano upon him revealing that he hasn't heard such beautiful sounds since being cast out of the Silver City, how Lucifer comes to gain his Corvette that he steals for him and Amenadiel to drive around the city, how Lucifer is able to start up his Corvette without a key like we know from the show so far that he can magically turn anything on, how Lucifer comes to love the building that becomes LUX once he finally comes to stay on Earth, how Maze comes to Earth to join him upon Lucifer going down to get her so they can seek her help with punishing a suspect, and I love, love, love that we come to see Lucifer seeking Maze's help to cut off his wings for him on the beach once he comes to stay on Earth as well. Which I will come back to in a moment... In the meantime... Chloe, who is still Officer Decker at the time, works alone on her own investigation in the hope that by solving the jogger's murder, it will help her to rise up as a detective like her husband, Dan has become already. It's interesting to first see them acting so lovey dovey with one another, until over time we also come to see the strain from work between them that we know eventually leads to them separating and getting divorced. Chloe and Dan come to work together on the same investigation. However, before they can finally apprehend the killer, Lucifer and Amenadiel mysteriously snatch the killer away. They don't ever see Lucifer and Amenadiel fly down to grab the killer and fly away with him of course, but then the killer suddenly is returned to them in the park just as mysteriously from when he had disappeared a short time later, which they both eventually come to shrug off upon arresting him. As for the killer himself... I really enjoy the overall case, as well as everyone's involvements within it. I especially love that this case ends with Amenadiel getting his necklace back and with Amenadiel being forced to allow Lucifer to remain on Earth after Lucifer tricks him into making an open ended deal with him earlier on within the episode. A deal which angels are forced to keep. Lucifer didn't know at the time of their deal what he wanted, but by the end of their own investigation to find Amenadiel's necklace, Lucifer comes to realize exactly what he wants. To live on Earth among the humans, and away from Hell. A chance to be his own man. Judged and held accountable for his own actions. And I really love how Lucifer comes to defy his father once and for all. Lucifer is so clever, and I absolutely love it!! And lastly... I love, love, love the scene at the end when Lucifer stares up coldly into the Heavens and at God while he has Maze cut off his wings, and how it's full of symbolism. This is Lucifer's best way of cutting his ties with God and with being an angel upon accepting his role as the Devil like everyone else already believes him to be. And you can absolutely see his defiance against his father underneath the pain from having Maze cuts his wings from his back. Ouch!! Lucifer's desperate need to show God he is his own man, is definitely a strong reason as to why Lucifer comes to be so angry and scared upon getting his wings back again and again since the beginning of season three. Why he becomes so, so out of sorts. So quick to anger and why he is so quick to deny he is good or that he does anything out of the goodness of his heart... because deep down, Lucifer sadly doesn't believe himself to be good in any way. And upon Amenadiel calling him evil, this only deepens his belief even though Amenadiel is very wrong about his brother. Because Lucifer is a good man. And in his eyes, his wings makes him believe his father is trying to prove to him that he no longer has a choice in being who he is. That they are proof he is no longer his own man. So Lucifer is more and more determined to rebel that much more in order to remain true to himself. Also... Maze's face in the background is heartbreaking too, because you can see just how much it pains her to hurt Lucifer. While she is a demon and he is her master so to speak, she cares about him very deeply, and that much has been obvious since season one. Their relationship has long since been strained and unfortunately, they're not as close as they were within the first two seasons because they've been through a lot. They're not close like they once were any longer. But I love seeing this old Maze once again. And you're right that her Hell look is amazing. Her look is on fire! What a fantastic episode, and I really enjoyed your reaction for it as well, dear friend. So thank you very much! Now back into the overarching storyline that will continue on in the next episode. Until then... Thank you, Nostalgic Girl! Sincerely, Heidi

Originally, the episode was meant for s2, right after A. and L. discovered its importance for the flaming sword. But the network (I think) wanted a leaner season 2, so this ep. was moved to s3 (as filler).
