Lucifer S03E03: Mr. and Mrs. Mazikeen Smith (Full Reaction)

Comments

Mr. and Mrs. Mazikeen Smith- Thank you so much for another fun reaction for Lucifer, Reds! I'm so happy that you really enjoyed this episode so much! I knew you would. I enjoy this episode too. It's one of the first episodes where this show mostly focuses on Maze, and it's a lot of fun! :) First, in answer to your questions regarding Maze's "vulnerability"... This show never really answers just how vulnerable Maze really is. It remains pretty much a mystery. We know she's a demon, and therefore she is immortal just like Lucifer and Amenadiel are. At least as far as her not aging and such. However, from conversations past between her, the Celestials, and with Linda, I think it has been alluded to, that if Maze were to be shot straight on, or mortally wounded in some way, then she can actually be killed, even by humans. I suspect this is why Maze is shown to always dodge, duck, and cover throughout this episode whenever she's being shot at, as well as in past and future episodes too. However, because she is a demon, she is also inhumanly fast and agile. Making it incredibly more difficult for anyone to actually physically hurt her. She would certainly have to be taken by surprise, which again... is not so easy. I hope my explanations make sense for you. Now... I really like that this episode gives Maze a chance to find herself, and that she eventually comes to discover she not only has roots because she has people who care about her and who she cares about in return waiting for her back home, but that she also seems to have more of a soul than she ever thought was possible. She may not have a physical soul and therefore, she's still in danger of just dying should she ever be killed. However, she can feel. She's come to discover she can love, both her family at home, as well as romantic love like she surprisingly found with her latest bounty... Ben Rivers. Or does she have a soul after all? Can she develop a soul? Good questions, Reds! However, in spite of her feelings for Rivers, I'm grateful that Maze chooses to return home to her family upon her growing close to them over the years. Especially for Trixie's sake. I'm sure that everyone would have been a little hurt had Maze chosen to run off with him, but most of them would have come to understand. Trixie might not though, and I doubt Lucifer would have accepted her leaving to run off for love either. Maybe over time with Linda's and Chloe's help, but not for some time, given that Lucifer still struggles with understanding his own feelings, especially for Chloe. Upon hearing that Lesley-Ann Brandt is pregnant during the first half of this season, I was actually surprised we were given an episode so focused on Maze. Although, it's clear that those filming this episode refrained from showing her stomach as much as was possible throughout this episode like they typically do for their actors who are pregnant during the filming of their shows and movies. Yet you can still tell that Lesley-Ann Brandt is in fact pregnant, simply from how she moves around onscreen. And in the action scenes where Maze fights, it's clear that it's her stunt double being filmed, and Dan is also there to do some of the more physical fighting as well. But of course, the action scenes are great! Plus... This episode was actually filmed during season two, and it was meant to be an episode in season two, which is when Lesley-Ann Brandt became pregnant. But for whatever the reasons were... This episode just got pushed into season three instead. Maybe so that we as fans wouldn't miss Maze quite so much, given that Lesley-Ann Brandt doesn't make another appearance again for some time. And I really like seeing Dan come to help Maze on his own vacation time, and I appreciate that even he shows that he cares about Maze as a friend to some degree. I will say that I do wish he had been in the episode more than he was, but his scenes were still fun. I especially like seeing him try to take on the big thug he punches to save Maze because he doesn't have his gun on him, only for him to get thrown down the snowy hill. Also... I love how in order to save Maze and Rivers from getting shot just before the fight begins, that Dan throws a snowball at Maze's head to distract the killers. Maze's face in this moment is very funny. As for Ben Rivers, played by actor, Chris McKenna... I really like his character a lot, as well as the chemistry he has with Maze. Their actors have great chemistry too. It's fantastic! I love his interactions with Maze. While I really love and appreciate that Maze returns home to stay close to her loved ones, a part of me also would have liked to see her run off with Ben too. I think that they would make a great couple! At the very least... I would like to see Ben return to the show someday as a possible romantic interest for Maze. I just really enjoy this episode for Maze as a character. And I like Ben Rivers a lot, as well as the mystery that surrounds him, Lieutenant Herrera, and who they were working for. Like we see in the end, whoever the person is behind the curtain so to speak... has a file now on Maze, as well as on Lucifer, Amenadiel, Charlotte/Goddess of all Creation, and on an unknown character too. And it's quite possible this person with the files on our Celestials and supernatural beings is the Sinnerman, given that the Sinnerman is the big threat for this season. Because this episode was filmed during the filming of season two, I believe I read somewhere that the two second scene showing the threat above Ben Rivers and whoever he is with the files on our Celestials, was actually filmed during this season and added into this episode later in order to help make this episode fit into season three. Which is why I suspect that this new threat that Ben Rivers is afraid of, may indeed be the Sinnerman. And lastly... I really like Chloe's concern for Maze throughout this episode as well, and how Lucifer seems so admit to believe she'll be just fine, until he later comes to see that Maze can become just as vulnerable as him when it comes to his feelings for Chloe. However, while Lucifer denies he's worried about Maze throughout most of this episode, you can tell that he's just saying all he does out of denial, because Lucifer really does care about Maze so much more than even he understands. And it is so adorable, just like Chloe teases him about. And upon seeing Lucifer among those in the end with Maze as they all toast to her coming home safely, it's clear that he's grown to understand more about his demon than he's ever really understood before. And that he's grown to really care about her as a close friend, and not just as his demon protector. Lucifer actually grows to be quite concerned for Maze throughout this episode too, and it's really adorable. I love this. :) Overall... This is a fun episode! I really like the comedy between Maze and Norm, seeing that she had beat up the kid laughing at her after bumping into her and watching the snow fall on top of her, seeing Mae throw a knife at the mean room service lady while bullets are still flying towards them, and just that everyone is so concerned about Canada's safety upon Maze tracking her bounty there, knowing just how dangerous Maze can be. And I love the development in a number of the characters. From Maze, Chloe, and to Lucifer as well. So, thank you for another fantastic reaction for Lucifer, Reds! Like always... I can't wait for more Lucifer!! So, until next time... Sincerely, Heidi
