User blog comment:Tommy,Klaus&Kol2012+/While I liked the new episode, it brings up a question/@comment-25589722-20190408000938

Respect for trying to find some kind of logic in this mess of a story we currently have xD

I honestly think that Lucifer isn't entirely "dead". He's back in the empty either sleeping or still awake or whatever. Also I agree, it's strange this shadow thing hasn’t been awaken by Lucifer yet... it feels like a slight retcon or lack of information regarding this.

If you ask me, Nick's story feels extremely forced and completely unnecessary! Nothing against Pellegrino, he's okay but Nick and his story arc are just a waste of time. It feels like they don't even know where to go and what to do with Lucifer and him anymore so they just do something that looks cool and something that would appease the guys who long for the "awesome" CGI.
