Lucifer - Monster

A growing need to be punished for the death his brother Uriel (Michael Imperioli) leads Lucifer (Tom Ellis) on a downward spiral of guilt and depression. Compromising Chloe‘s (Lauren German) case by taking even more liberties than usual, Lucifer is eventually benched with only this alcohol and self-pity to keep him company. If last week was a major turning point in the series, “Monster” continues that trend as the Devil now sees himself as someone in desperate need to face punishment for his actions. Unable to be honest with Chloe about the cause of his malaise, Lucifer instead reveals himself to Linda (Rachael Harris) leaving no doubt whatsoever in the doctor’s mind just who and what Lucifer truly is.

Once Upon a Time - Dark Waters

While the Aladdin (Deniz Akdeniz) storyline gets pushed to one of the episode’s subplots, “Dark Waters” picks up a thread of Hook’s (Colin O’Donoghue) past as the pirate confronts the appearance of Captain Nemo (Faran Tahir) and the Nautilus in both the present and in flashbacks. Tying in the theme of the Evil Queen‘s (Lana Parrilla) attempts to sow dissension among the heroes, the villain reveals Hook’s refusal to destroy the shears to Henry. Bringing the kid’s resentment to the pirate’s growing role in his family, the pair eventually come to an understanding as Henry helps Hook deal with one of his biggest regrets which has coming calling.

Lucifer - The Weaponizer

Lucifer‘s Second Season takes a dark turn with the arrival of Lucifer’s brother Uriel (Michael Imperioli). Given his power to see and change patterns to fit his desired outcome, the angel arranges for Chloe‘s (Lauren German) car crash to get his brother’s attention. Uriel’s powers are actually quite fascinating, and I’m curious to see what else God’s other children might be able to do. Giving Lucifer an ultimatum of 24 hours, Lucifer must either turn over his Mum (Tricia Helfer) to his brother or watch Chloe die. As usual, Lucifer finds a third option out of his problem, but the choices he makes at the end of the episode are likely to haunt the character for some time to come.

Woodside) all hit-up the secret sex club looking for a killer. Although it means that Lucifer and Chloe spend a little more time apart than usual, the concept of the episode does allow for Chloe to finally let her guard down and blow off some steam (and possibly find a new roommate).
