}}"'''Boo Normal'''" is the twenty-fifth episode of the [[Season 3|third season]] of {{Lucifer}}. This episode was initially suppose to be part of [[season 4]] but following FOX's cancellation of the series, the episode aired as a bonus episode two weeks after the [[A Devil of My Word|season 3 finale]].

==Summary==
The episode sees [[Lucifer]] and his team investigating the murder of a child psychiatrist while [[Ella]] is thinking about a childhood secret she’s been hiding. And there's a special friend from Ella’s past who may actually be a ghost

==Plot==
The episode starts with Ella's cheerful, bubbly self entering a crime scene, where the body of child psychiatrist, Dr. Beth Daly, lies. Ella had gotten a call from her brother informing her that he had back to Detroit a week ago, and he suggests that she should, too. Ella tells Chloe and Lucifer that she is considering it, as the reason she moved to LA in the first place was to be near her brother.

Ella thinks that the doctor's death may have been an accident where she slipped, fell, and hit her head. There are a few inconsistencies, though, like the clump of hair under her finger nail, and how someone had wiped the woman's blood off the injury. Ella thinks that Beckett Wilson, the girl who discovered the body, might have wiped the blood.

Dan was accompanying Beckett to the precinct, and on the way, he asks her if she wiped the blood away, but she says no. She also asks for a Slurpee. He decides to indulge her.

At the crime scene, Ella finds a little boy hiding in the closet. Felix Rodriquez isn't a suspect but he may be a witness. Felix's father says that Felix is shy and cannot communicate well when Chloe asks for an interview. Chloe thinks that Felix might have arrived shortly after the incident occurred, and wanted to know if Felix saw anything. She is told Felix went back to Dr. Beth's office alone on his bike to get the violin he forgot. Ella wipes the blood off Felix's hands and bonds with him after telling him that she had been in a car accident when she was his age, and that she saw lots of blood. Felix tells her that he didn't see who did it.

At the lab, Ella is surprised by her childhood friend, Ray-Ray, who is a ghost only she could see. Chloe can't see her when she comes into the lab. Ella reminds Ray-Ray that they agreed to never see each other again five years previously, after Ella was labeled as a weirdo by her friends, and crazy by her psychologist. Ray-Ray is the only ghost Ella can see, and Ella admits that she felt special as a kid, in that she can see ghosts, but didn't feel that way when everyone around her said it wasn't normal. She tells Ray-ray she likes her LA self; the one who doesn't have to keep secrets. Ray-Ray suggests her new friends can handle it.

Chloe enters the lab, and Ella informs her that the clump of hair was synthetic hair found in plush toys and carpets. She also tells her that the dried "blood" is ketchup which is weird as there wasn't any food at the doctor's office. After Chloe leaves to visit the doctor's house, Ray-Ray reveals that she is here to help Ella with work.

Dan is desperate to find Beckett after she tricked him and stole his phone, so he visits Lucifer for help, much to the Devil's amusement. 

Back at the doctor's, Ella finds a fur suit the paw of which is stained with ketchup, which makes her think that the doctor was wearing it shortly before she died. Chloe also finds a threatening voice mail from a woman who claims that she is going to be the only one with Wesley at SCC. 

Ella knows that SCC stands for Southwest Convention Center, which is where a furry convention is held. Chloe wears Beth's furry suit and visits the convention undercover. In the surveillance van, Ella and Ray-Ray watch, as Ray-Ray reveals that the reason she is visiting is personal unfinished business, and Ella thinks that unfinished business has something to do with Beth, so they strike a deal: Ella will solve the case, and Ray-Ray will leave after the case is solved.

in the convention, Chloe is attacked by another person wearing a furry suit. Chloe arrests the woman, who when questioned, says that Wesley is her fursona, an original creation, and that Beth stole it from her. She also says that Beth is addicted to conflict, and that she mentioned that she had just gotten into a fight with some guy at her office.

Meanwhile, Lucifer and Dan find Beckett in an amusement park. They pull her off the roller coaster, and Dan gets tricked into riding on the roller coaster, something that causes terror in him and laughter in Lucifer who managed to get photos. 

Ella goes back to the crime scene where she discovers that Ray-Ray's unfinished personal business is Ella herself. Ray-Ray tries to convince Ella to stay in LA where there are nice people who actually care about Ella, and don't use her like her brothers do. Their conversation is interrupted by someone breaking into the office. Ella is discovered hiding in the closet, and gets the thief's prints on a broom during the scuffle, even if the man managed to escape, she has him.

While Lucifer is having t-shirts printed with Dan's terrified face, he loses Beckett. This time she stole Dan's badge and Lucifer's car keys.  They are forced to enlist Maze.

Ella discovers the fingerprints on the broom are too smudged for an ID, but Ella finds traces of chalk and rosin. Chloe finds a car with Rancho Middle School bumper sticker on street cam footage right after Ella's fight, and they connect the chalk with a teacher, and the rosin with a violin, so they look up the music teacher. That middle school is also where Beckett and Felix attend.

Music teacher, Jonathan Burke is brought in and admits to breaking into Beth's office to retrieve a check he wrote to Beth trying to bribe her to change her recommendation regarding Felix. Felix was a genius and Beth recommended that he play the violin more and take private lessons which would leave Jonathan out, so he bribed her. Jonathan also has an alibi for the time of the murder. He also mentions that Beckett, a former student, is a nightmare, and that she skipped the first period.

Lucifer has Maze track Beckett, and they trace her to [[Lux]] where she was trying to buy a drink using Dan's badge. Dan tells her she is a murder suspect now, and she realizes the trouble she is in is real. She tells him that she didn't see anything,  but she was crying because she is allergic to fragrance and smelled freesia, that Beth's office reeked of perfume when she found her.

Chloe interviews Felix's mom who wears freesia scent. She says that Felix would never leave his violin behind, and that Beth recommended Felix stay at school and try new activities. She also mentions that her husband, Anthony, is the one who told her that. Outside, Ella notices that the neighbors have a construction dumpster, and she searches for the murder weapon there. She finds it, and Anthony attacks her. Chloe saves her and says that Felix didn't leave his violin behind, and that he was following his father there. 
When Anthony says that Beth's recommendation was to let Felix play the violin more, and that that wasn't normal, Ella tells him that is not normal, but special. 

After Anthony is arrested, Ella finally tells Chloe that she sees a ghost, and that she has been seeing it since a car wreck when she was eight. Chloe believes her, saying that she's seen a lot crazier things. Ella decides against moving back to Detroit to Chloe's delight. Ray-Ray fulfills her end of the deal and leaves since the case is closed. Ella tells her it's okay to check in on her like a guardian angel every once in a while. Ray-Ray leaves saying, "smell you later"

At the precinct, Ella uses the same phrase with Lucifer, who seems to recognize the phrase and asks her about it. Ella says that her friend Ray-Ray uses it.

Lucifer returns to his penthouse warily, and says he knows she is there. His sister, Azrael, the angel of death, emerges. He doesn't welcome her with open arms, and tells her endearing nicknames are for people who did not abandon him for millennia. Azrael says that things weren't the same when Lucifer was banished to Hell, she'd lost her favorite big brother, and she just lost track what with her busy schedule. Azrael asks about their brother and tries to soften Lucifer's attitude. Eventually she reveals that she sent Ella to Lucifer, saying that if she couldn't be with Ella or Lucifer, her two favorite people could be together. She leaves before Lucifer can reply.

Lucifer goes back to the precinct, and tells Ella he is pleased she is staying in LA, and listens patiently to Ella ramble while Azrael watches them, pleased.
