I kinda wish the whole Maze and Linda thing would get resolved now. It never made a lot of sense to me in the first place. Why is Maze so adamant that Linda and Amenadiel shouldn't be together? She no longer appeared interested in him, and it's not like the relationship ended acrimoniously, it just seemed to fizzle. Unless she really does still have feelings for Amenadiel (or Linda), it doesn't really compute why she's so against them having a relationship. I get why she's upset that they lied to her, but she kind of forced them into it with her irrational demands. Maybe if they explained her motivations a bit more clearly, her extreme anger over this would make more sense, but as it is, it just seems like manufactured drama. Which has now gone on at least an episode too long.

I still don't trust Pierce, and him seeing Lucifer and Chloe have a moment and then promptly zinging a date with Chloe seems suspect to me. I don't know if he genuinely wants Chloe for himself, or if this is a way to exact revenge on/leverage Lucifer.

I know there have been some complaints about the lack of direction/haphazard pacing of the season, and for the most part I haven't really minded because most episodes had enough ensemble goodness to keep me satisfied. But this one didn't really do it for me. I'm unenthused by the prospect of a Lucifer/Chloe/Pierce love triangle, especially if it's just to up the angst for Chloe should Lucifer somehow succeed in giving Pierce his death.

And, yeah, I'm tired of Maze/Linda fight, and long for the 'the moment we were all Linda' phase of their friendship.

Wow, Lucifer actually dislikes a woman. I enjoyed the I Will Survive duet/fight, though.

Maze, you don't really care about Amenadiel and Linda chose you! Let it go!!!

The hammering in on "spotlight" reminded me of the hammering on about Monopoly shoe.

Lucy, if you ignore the woman for a week, what do you expect?!
