Plot
With Lucifer’s wings burned from the previous episode, the Lord of Hell has the unprecedented opportunity to reinvent himself. With a glitzy party underway at Lux, to celebrate his recently severed ties to all things heavenly and below, his indulgent nature is still front and center. Chloe and Dan arrives and brings a gift of an unusual drink, but had to leave to attend Malcolm's welcome back party.
At the party, Malcolm in a wheelchair (pushed by Anthony Paolucci) confronts Chloe and Dan. At first, it appears he's giving her grief while everyone else looks on, before he reveals he's just messing with them. He could even stand up from his wheelchair with some difficulty. Paolucci makes a comment about how heaven doesn't want him and hell couldn't keep him, and Malcolm says "You've got no idea" and winks at the pair.
At Linda's, Lucifer is displeased with his recent emotions, but Linda is pleased he's letting his guard down. Lucifer asks her to help getting Chloe past her ex, but she refuses.
Chloe and Lucifer investigate a therapist's murder. He may have attracted enemies as he encouraged people to cheat. Lucifer is excited at the prospect of reading his patient files, but is told that they are required to have a psychologist, and when he suggests Linda, Chloe says it needs to be court-approved. Lucifer promptly seduces a Judge Michelle Tourvel to achieve that end.
Chloe and Lucifer argue about Linda's involvement. Lucifer notices Dr. Canaan has moved in. Linda notifies them about a patient named Richard Kester who sent him a death threat, but otherwise his patients seem happy with him.
Chloe tells Lucifer she and Dan separated because he focused too much on his job but lately he's making time for her and Trixie.
Linda calls to warn that Kester may be a danger to himself, and Chloe finds him standing near the edge of a building, joined by Lucifer after a moment. Lucifer wants him to help him understand jealousy, but Kester says he didn't kill Shaw and shows he's just sad instead of jealous. Lucifer's callous attitude accidentally convinces him not to kill himself.
Kester reveals he knows Shaw's wife and he met her two days ago, when Chloe through she's in Phoenix due to her plane tickets.
Linda goes and meets Maze at Lux, who dismisses her relationship with Lucifer. Linda thinks her rudeness comes from a feeling of powerlessness. Chloe arrives and figured out Sandy Shaw may have been stalking one of her husbands female patients. Dan calls and Chloe had to leave, much to Lucifer's chagrin.
At Chloe's apartment, it turns out it was Malcolm. He says he's also looking into the Palmetto case and he was buying information from Nikolas Aoudi and he thinks a cop shot both of them.
