LUCIFER 1x12 "#TeamLucifer" FULL REACTION!!

Thank you so much for another fantastic reaction for another of my favorite episodes for season one of Lucifer!!! I love this episode so much, especially because it really does a good job showing us who Lucifer truly is and how much it pains him to be blamed for all the evil throughout the world, including all the evils done in his name. Which I will get back to momentarily. I really hope you will be posting your reaction for season one's finale very soon, because it's just as good as this episode and I'm so excited for it!!! First... like I said above, my favorite moments are when we see just how hurt Lucifer really is upon being worshipped by the devil worshipped, and then is continually bombarded and accused of being the killer who murdered the two misguided Satanists, not only by the false preacher and his followers on the street outside of his club, but by Dan, Malcolm, and Chloe too like he believes about her, even though she is actually the one person who believes in him. I absolutely love seeing this vulnerable and disheartened side to Lucifer. While I absolutely love his crazy antics and humor his character brings to this phenomenal show, I love seeing this side to Lucifer even more. It's rare, as well as heartbreaking, and seeing human emotions coming from him is really quite unique from every other way Lucifer or Satan have been portrayed in other shows or movies. I absolutely love it!!! Also... I really love all of the misdirects this episode throws at us while we're trying to figure out who the real killer is. First... we're led to believe that the girl's killer was the leader of the Satanists, then her boyfriend, and finally the false preacher, all while the cops including Dan and a number of people believe Lucifer is behind everything, especially when the girl's boyfriend is later found dead as well. And in the end... it's at last revealed to have been Malcolm all along. And knowing just how evil he is, I am shocked that I didn't even consider him to be the killer in the slightest, even though him being so makes perfect sense. What a phenomenal reveal! I absolutely love this. And I love the moment when Lucifer figures it out upon seeing the red paint on Malcom's hand. It's scary that Malcolm has done all this in Lucifer's name, misguidingly thinking that he and Lucifer have now become one in the same since he revealed his true evil to Lucifer in the last episode. Unfortunately, Lucifer is unable to finish punishing Malcolm when Amenadiel flies in and then fights Lucifer because of Maze having tried to kill him. Again... I will get back to this in a moment. First... in the end of the last episode, Lucifer was only speculating and considering his options on how to handle his problems with Amenadiel. He mentioned to her that he would have to find a way to deal with his brother in order to stop Amenadiel from trying to kill him, even if it meant doing so in a more permanent manner. And he was holding Maze's dagger while he said it, which gave Maze the insight as to what she believed Lucifer wanted from her. However, Lucifer never sent Maze there to kill Amenadiel. She did so... all on her own because she misinterpreted what Lucifer was saying and believed it was what he wanted her to do. Of course Lucifer is angry with his brother for wanting to kill him and especially for using Malcolm and Chloe to do it, as he believes that his vulnerability around Chloe is because of Amenadiel. But he was only talking because he's grown tired of Amenadiel trying to kill him, all so he can send him back to Hell, where Lucifer refuses to return to ever again. And after all Lucifer's been forced to endure... who can really blame him? Lucifer is just deeply hurt and angry for being seen as all evil, especially by his own brother when he's not. Now, back to the fight between Lucifer and Amenadiel... I agree with you that this fight was amazing. I love seeing how powerful both of them are and seeing the destruction left behind throughout his house. And I love seeing that both angels are able to be beaten and injured through fighting one another too. In spite of them both being immortal. This was a fantastic fight scene. As for Amenadiel's relationship with Maze... in spite of this fight between the brothers that comes out of it, I don't care at all for the idea of Maze and Amenadiel being together, and of them having sex. It's just too weird and kind of twisted, especially since Amenadiel is an angel and Maze is a demon. And I don't like that Amenadiel was foolish enough to fall for her knowing that she's a demon. It just feels very out of character for him. It's in Mazes character, yes. Just not his, so I don't like them together in the slightest. And lastly... I love the ending when Chloe comes into LUX in order to be there for Lucifer and to assure him she believes in his innocence. I also love how Lucifer opens up to her about how hurt he is by everyone's accusations. Unfortunately, he's interrupted once again when Chloe finds the false preacher's body with a bullet wound to his head lying on the ground beside his bar, left there by Malcolm who really killed him in order to frame Lucifer. And not just for the false preacher's death, but also for the other two deaths as well, knowing that all he did to frame Lucifer for the other deaths with his name being all over the crime scenes, as well as everyone seeing Lucifer threatening the false preacher on the news, would be enough to make the cops all believe Lucifer is the killer. Chloe then pulls her gun out and points it at Lucifer, and the last we see is the cops all charging into LUX and Chloe continuing to point her gun at Lucifer while she's looking at him with fear in her eyes. Yikes! What an episode!!! I am so excited for you to see all that's to come!! Just you wait!!!! Thank you so much once again for your reaction and I will see you again soon for more! Until then, my friend...
