Goofs

While not mentioned directly, like 2 years ago, this episode clearly takes place 2 years in the past. Lucifer himself says he's only been a consultant for 5 weeks. Not sure if this was shot earlier then dumped in, or just such a good premise for an episode they wanted to back date it.

User Reviews

Finely crafted

This episode is the best episode of Lucifer so far. It's an exquisitely crafted story. While some fans might find the exposition slow, I personally found it thoroughly engaging.

The regular cast members performed admirably and the guest stars, Patrick Fabian and John Billingsley, showed great acting without stealing the show's thunder.
