Johnson quotes from Lucifer

Lucifer

I'll give you one chance to apologize.

Apologize? You punched me! I'll tell you what I can do; I can forgive you.

Lucifer

Taking the high ground now, are we? Magnificent. I may have struck the latest blow, but that is only in response to the litany of offenses that you, dear old dad, have bestowed upon me.

So, you believe me. Good. Tell me, just what is it you think I've done?

Lucifer

Oh, we're going there, are we?! Right, let's see! Um, casting me into hell for eternity because you haven't got the balls to get your own cowardly hands dirty! Manipulating me with the detective, giving me the illusion of control! You are a patronizing, sinister helicopter parent!

So you think you have no free will?

Lucifer

Every bad thing that's happened throughout eternity is your doing, not mine! It's all part of God's plan! Even Mum's coming here and manipulation of me was part of it.

Your mother's here?

Lucifer

Oh! Look who cares now.

Oh, my. Oh, well, that is something. I still remember the first moment we met. Mmm. There was nothing, just darkness and... then she appeared. (chuckles softly) It did not take long for us to light up the universe.

Lucifer

Much as I'm enjoying this trip down memory lane, I want an apology. Nay! Nay, I demand penance. You must atone for what you've done!

Now, that's not the Samael I remember.

Lucifer

No! No, Dad, this is who you made me when you cast me away! Now apologize!

I am so sorry that you suffered.

Charlotte

Well, I suppose I should apologize for trying to destroy your precious toy with floods and plagues and whatnot. I guess humanity isn't entirely awful. They did make vodka. Roller coasters. Triple-cream brie.

Well, I had no idea you were so angry with me.

Lucifer

Really? 'Cause I... I've been pretty upfront about it.

But to want to destroy me? That's pretty serious. You mind telling me why?

Lucifer

Because... Because I'm your son. And you rejected me.

Oh. Well, then I guess I can't say as I blame you. Fact of the matter is, I don't even remember why I was ever so angry with you to begin with. For what it's worth, I am sorry. I truly am. And I am proud of you, Samael. I'm proud of the man you've become.

Hey, They, uh, said we was arguing. If I did or said something to upset you, I apologize.

Lucifer

No. No, you were quite lovely, actually. For a brief moment, I thought you were my father. A man for whom I harbor a great deal of resentment. And you said some things that I think I wish he'd always said to me. So, for that, I thank you.

Well, I guess even a blind squirrel catches a nut every now and then. You take care of yourself. [gets in a taxi] Hey, does this mean you're not angry at your dad anymore?

Lucifer

No, I'm not angry. I'm bloody furious. Because I realize that my father would never say those things to me. And for that, I hate him all the more.
