A Priest Walks Into a Bar- Thank you very much for a fantastic reaction, for another phenomenal episode that I love very much!!! It's definitely one of my favorites within season one along with Manly Whatnots and Favorite Son so far as well. I absolutely love the dynamic and growing friendship between Lucifer and Father Frank, and I especially love seeing Lucifer take it so hard upon Frank dying in his arms in the end. Because for the first time aside from Chloe, given that he's unsure of where they stand with one another, Lucifer has found someone who wants to be his friend, and over a short time, he has come to realize he wants to be Frank's friend in return upon discovering just how terribly lonely he's really been all this time in his session with Linda. And more so, I absolutely love seeing this vulnerable side to Lucifer, especially since he is the Devil and not known to people to have any sense of emotions, loneliness, and the need for friendship. All of this makes Frank's death that much more heartbreaking. And it's because of Lucifer's reaction to his death that causes me to cry, more so than even seeing Frank die as sad as his death is. And the the ending is absolutely phenomenal! I love how Chloe's and Lucifer's case spins so out of control as it suddenly becomes terrifying when Connor is seen by Chloe and Lucifer being tempted by the drug dealer known as the Spider to kill Father Frank, only for the Spider to kill Frank instead after Connor refuses to, then as Lucifer once again loses control after his anger rises when he attacks Frank's killer. I absolutely love seeing Lucifer's inner battle with himself as he struggles so deeply with fighting for control over his emotions. Pure rage and hatred for the Spider, to his heartbreak caused by the loss of his first real friend before he comes to understand that Chloe thinks of him as a friend as well. Thankfully, Chloe is once again there to pull Lucifer back from the edge and is able to save him from making a terrible mistake he would later come to regret if he had killed the Spider. I absolutely love seeing Lucifer come to the brink of losing himself to his seething anger, until Chloe brings him back down to save him because she cares about him so much. This storyline for Lucifer really shows a strong and emotional growth in Lucifer's character, and I absolutely love all of it. :) It's strange how Chloe never questions how it is that Lucifer is able to lift the Spider, who is so much bigger than him, off the ground and force him back against the wall so easily. Especially with one arm no less. Lucifer does things like this all the time, and while Chloe initially started questioning the strangeness about Lucifer before, she stopped doing so since she shot him and saw him bleed in episode four... Manly Whatnots. And now she appears to be in such deep denial about Lucifer's "Luciferness". Although, it's true that we all come to be in denial over things in life we can't possibly understand. But Lucifer still does things that no human can possibly do, even through adrenaline. Chances are, adrenaline from him being so angry is maybe how Chloe is able to play everything off in her mind so that his actions make sense in the only way she can accept them, as would anyone else who might witness Lucifer do things so seemingly miraculous. But back to the storyline... I also love the moment when Lucifer and Father Frank play Lucifer's piano together. Some of the music throughout this episode is really great, as we see and hear Frank start to play Knocking on Heaven's Door, which is the same song Lucifer also later plays in the end as well because he's struggling to come to terms with Frank's death. It is just so wonderful seeing Lucifer's change in attitude towards Frank as their scenes together continue on. And the piano talent... fabulous! And then... another of my absolute favorite moments is also towards the end, when Lucifer talks with God as he's staring up at the sky, having grown angry with his father for allowing Frank to die because he can't understand God's plans. Not for Frank and most certainly not for him. This moment for Lucifer is crushing. This is something everyone can understand and really relate to, as I do all the time. Since we all struggle to understand God's plans for us during the difficult times in our lives. Especially with all the chaos going on in the world today. And I really feel like this is another one of the biggest reasons why I love this episode so much. Because I absolutely understand how Lucifer feels towards God during these hard times. I love God, and I believe in him wholeheartedly, but I struggle very deeply with believing in myself, and I can see this in Lucifer throughout this episode and the series, which is why I love it so much. I definitely struggle everyday with my own troubles like everyone does, and so I really appreciate that this show brings about this kind of emotion into such a sensitive storyline. Especially for Lucifer, who isn't a character known for possibly be able to feel this way. It's really, really beautiful, and I love, love, love Tom Ellis' portrayal of Lucifer all the more for his talent to be able to show so much emotion. You can see such pain and emotions in his eyes as he's holding the killer by his throat against the wall, and you can definitely hear it in the breaking of his voice as well. Another of my favorite moments... I really love the moment in the end between Lucifer and Chloe as well, when she comes back to LUX in order to comfort him after seeing him so deeply shaken by Frank's death. That she comes as a friend to comfort him and that Chloe lets him know that she is his friend too, when Lucifer has never had a real friend until now. I also love how Chloe cancels her date with Dan to go over to LUX's to be there for Lucifer when she understands he needs her more. This moment between them is so sweet, and I love it when they play Heart and Souls together on his piano. So adorable! I absolutely love the possibility of them coming together romantically. But for now... I love, love, love their friendship. :) As for the whole Malcolm, Amenadiel, and Dan storyline... it's most definitely intriguing, and I really feel badly for Dan too, even though he has definitely made some really bad mistakes by working with Malcolm... both now and back during the days before the incident on Palmetto Street. I most certainly do not condone his actions or excuse him because I feel bad for him. He has put himself in this position he's trapped in now. However, we do learn that Dan's mistakes come from him looking the other way a few times while Malcolm and his former partner, Paolucci acted corruptly. That he wasn't doing the corruption, just ignoring it. Which isn't good, but it's better than Dan being straight up a killer or anything else. And then... it's revealed that Dan shot Malcolm more so to protect Chloe when he saw that Malcolm was going to kill her, than him having killed him to protect himself. I really appreciate that about Dan, and it makes me, not only feel bad for him, but like him all the more than I did before this episode. He isn't evil. He's just struggling to find it in himself to do the right thing in regards to his mistakes. Dan is definitely a character who some people like and some people just hate. For me... I like him because there's intrigue in his character, and while we know he is a corrupt cop, you can still see he regrets his decisions. And I do appreciate this about him. In regards to your confusion as to why Dan didn't say anything to anyone back at the time he shot Malcolm in spite of him doing so in order to protect Chloe... I suspect that Dan was afraid of being found out of being a corrupt cop. And he was. In this episode, he talks to Malcolm about looking away a few times while Malcolm and his partner he had killed in the previous episode did some bad things. Drug deals, etc... And Dan had followed Malcolm to Palmetto Street, because like Malcolm mentioned to Dan in this episode, Dan's conscience was beginning to get the better of him and I suspect that Dan might have been considering killing Malcolm to stop him from continuing to hurt people. I believe Dan was just afraid that the cops would suspect him of being just as corrupt as Malcolm and Paolucci, and would have discovered they were right if they had looked into Dan's own misdeeds. So, Dan stayed silent then in order to protect himself. To keep them from looking into why he was even at Palmetto in the first place, in spite of doing a good thing by protecting Chloe. I hope this all makes sense. In regards to Amenadiel and his actions... Amenadiel is an angel, and therefore in his own eyes, he is the epitome of good. He is all righteous. But that's just it... while Amenadiel should act as what we believe to be good, in his eyes... his actions are righteous because it was God's command for him to bring Lucifer back to Hell. And in his eyes, Lucifer is the epitome of evil. So he believes he is doing God's will, even though he's doing bad things such as hiring a human to kill his own brother. To him, his actions are justified and are righteous. So wrong! And I feel so sad for Lucifer because we know that even though he is the Devil, there is so much more good in him than especially he can even begin to understand. And he isn't evil by any means. And while I am also intrigued by Amenadiel's deal he's made with Malcolm to have him kill Lucifer... I am so very angry with him to for plotting against his own brother. He's certainly not your typical angel you would expect him to be, but that's also what I love about him too. And you might know from watching other shows and movies too, that angels aren't always the beautiful, always good celestial beings we want to believe they are, but that they can be more the warriors of God, and that they're not always very nice. Also... I love how it's revealed that Malcolm had only been in Hell for about thirty seconds as he was dying upon being taken off of life support, but that it felt to him like he was trapped in Hell for more like thirty years. Really brilliant!! Another big revelation that is beautiful and so important... I love the moment when Frank reveals to Lucifer just before he dies, that he knows Lucifer is really the Devil, and seeing Lucifer's shock upon realizing that Frank still cared about him and was his friend in spite of Frank knowing he's the Devil. Absolutely fantastic! What a phenomenal revelation, that makes Lucifer care for Frank all the more for being his friend in spite of Frank knowing he is the Devil and supposed monster that the world believes him to be. And lastly... the scene where Lucifer enters the confessional to speak with the confessing woman he suddenly becomes attracted to while pretending to be a priest, is hilarious. I especially love the moment he tells her to drink ten bloody Mary's and to have a good shag. Not good advice, but still hilarious just the same. However, I love this scene too... because it shows Lucifer doing something known to be in the true Devil's nature like he jokes to Chloe about when he states that temptation is in his nature. As it's talked about him being a tempter in the Bible and in all religions. This moment shows Lucifer drawing a woman into temptation, just as he did with Eve in the Garden of Eden and for all of his existence. It's brilliant! I always love when this show brings in real facts and knowledge about the true Devil in some way or another. Overall... this episode is absolutely phenomenal. I love Lucifer's struggles to understand how Frank could believe in God so much in spite of losing his daughter. And more so... I love that Lucifer struggles so much with it, because he can't understand his father's plans for him because of his pain. The very pain we see in his face and in his eyes that he must have felt when God cast him out of Heaven and forced him down into Hell, therefore making him the Devil and blamed for all of humanity's sins. It's really tragic, yet beautiful to see through a character like Lucifer. Like I said above... Tom Ellis is absolutely phenomenal as Lucifer Morningstar. I absolutely love him! Thank you very much once again, Reds! This is an amazing reaction. And I am so, so excited for more Lucifer reactions from you like always. Until then, my friend... You're amazing!! Stay healthy, and be happy! :) Sincerely, Heidi
