Chloe Decker quotes from Lucifer

Chloe

[looking through a victim's notebook] So what are these, jokes?

Lucifer

A charitable description, Detective. "Avocado, how about avoca-don't?" Would it be rude to throw tomatoes at a corpse?

Chloe

Hey, Lieutenant. You busy?

Pierce

Depends what you're gonna ask me next.

Chloe

Lucifer!

Lucifer

Detective.

Chloe

What is going on here? And how did you get that horse?

Lucifer

What horse?

Chloe

Pierce called from the hospital 'cause, apparently, he never stops working. But we have a new case.

Lucifer

What, the case of the missing bedpan? Riveting.

Chloe

[plays random keys on the piano, mock-imitating Lucifer's accent] "I'm Lucifer Morningstar. I can play the piano and I'm a fancy British man."

Linda

Let's go take a peek at his sock drawer.

Chloe

[mock outrage] But, Dr. Martin, you're his therapist. Aren't there rules against that?

Linda

Trust me. There's nothing I don't know about Lucifer Morningstar.

Chloe

Except what's in his sock drawer.

Chloe

Pierce! Lieutenant, you're still here. D-does that mean you've decided to stay or...?

Cain

Yeah, at least for now.

Chloe

Oh! That's great! That's really, really great.

Cain

Two "reallys"? Really?

Lucifer

How do know so much about diamonds?

Chloe

Well, I've watched enough Real Housewives to fake it with the best of them.

Chloe

Who's Todd Cornwell?

Ella

Exacty. Todd Cornwell... Class loner, acne, Coke-bottle glasses, whole bit. Went to college overseas, and when I stalked Kathleen's classmates online, Todd was the only one with zero social media presence.

Chloe

Lucifer. You could go as Todd.

Dan

Yeah. No, seriously. Look, he looks just like you.

Lucifer

Has all that masturbation finally caught up with your eyesight, Daniel? No one would believe that, even if I tell them I've had a face and body transplant.

Chloe

What were you thinking, tackling somebody with a knife?

Lucifer

It's not me I was worried about, Detective.

Lucifer

I promised you…that I would find a way to kill you. [breaks Cain's wrist, forces his arm back to stab him with his own knife, and knocks him to the floor] I am a devil of my word!

Cain

[mortally wounded] Is Chloe okay?

Lucifer

She's fine. No thanks to you.

Cain

[struggling to breathe and laughing] Now that I'm dying, I don't know what I was so afraid of. I'm going to Heaven.

Lucifer

You really believe that?

Cain

I told you, Lucifer, I don't regret anything I've done.

Lucifer

Yes. But, that was before you killed Charlotte Richards.

Cain

No. No, that was an accident.

Lucifer

Oh, you pulled the trigger. You ended her life. You chose to kill her. Deep down, you know you're a monster…and that you belong in Hell, where you will torture yourself with that truth for eternity. 'Cause no matter what you tell yourself…you can't outrun what you've done. [his eyes glow red and the skin on his face crackles with electricity] What you truly are.

Cain

And neither can you. [he laughs, gasps, and finally expires]

Chloe

Lucifer? …Lucifer?

Chloe

It's all true.

Lucifer

[unaware] Detective?

Chloe

…it's all true.

I know I've made mistakes, Chlo. Lots of them. But, honey, I've never underestimated you.

Chloe

Then how come any time I've ever shown any interest in your job, you either change the subject or you push me away?

Because you're way smarter than me. You're more headstrong than your mother. And it scared me. I mean, what if you wanted to become a cop?

Chloe

What if I did?

Oh, Monkey. I've been shot at, beat up, chased by a naked guy with a harpoon once. And none of those things scare me as much as thinking of you in those situations. It was never about whether you could handle it. It was whether I could. And I'm sorry. But a parent just wants what's best for their child.

Lucifer

Detective,... Are you okay with... me?

Chloe

Well, it's not like you haven't always told me the truth. You know? So... I think, deep down, I just... I always knew.

Lucifer

But how does it make you feel? Afraid? Terrified? Do you want to yell at me? Punch me in the face? Run away again?

Chloe

I.. I think I just want to get back to work.

Lucifer

That's all?

Chloe

That's all. [walks off]

Lucifer

What the f-- [Theme music plays]

Lucifer

[staring right into Ella's eyes] I'm the Devil.

Chloe

[growing concerned] Lucifer, what are you doing?

Lucifer

Detective, it's time Miss Lopez finally knew the truth. [to Ella, still holding her eyes] I am the angel who led a rebellion against my Father, God. I was banished to Hell afterwards where I ruled as King over the souls of the damned.

Ella

[softly] Lucifer, it all makes sense now.

Ella

Dammit, I tried to keep a straight face, I really did. Man. How? How do you stay in character like that?

Lucifer

[strained amusement] Well, it's simple really. It's all true.

Chloe

So... you don't bite the heads off of children?

Lucifer

No, of course not. I detest the little creatures. And I'd certainly never put one in my mouth.

Chloe

[pressing the ax blade gently on Lucifer's bare chest] If I pushed this into your chest,... It would kill you.

Lucifer

Yes.

Chloe

Because I'm close to you.

Lucifer

Yes.

Chloe

But you jumped in front of it anyway.

Lucifer

Yes. And I would do it again. And again. Don't you know that, Detective?
