You know, Lucifer used to be God's favorite angel.
Those were the days.
Where to start?
Well, I'm the Devil.
I basically invented daddy issues,
waged a war and then got banished to rule Hell.
Decided I needed a little vacay.
So I came here to Los Angeles,
which, may I tell you, is no city of angels
and exactly what I was after.
Your return to the underworld has been requested.
Remind Dad that I quit Hell
because I was sick and tired of playing a part in his play.
I bought a bar,
had a wonderful time partying with my demon friend, Maze,
annoying my brother, Amenadiel, which I have to say was half the fun.
And you, my feathered friend, can go to hell.
But then something unexpected happened.
I got mixed up in a murder,
and helped an LAPD detective solve the case.
Detective Chloe Decker.
I told her I was the Devil, but she didn't believe me.
They never do.
I have the ability to draw out people's forbidden desires.
I got it. I got it. The name. The whole Lucifer thing.
-And desire's like your superpower. -It's more like a gift from God.
There's something special about the detective.
She's the only human I've ever met
who's completely immune to my devilish charm.
I will never
Playing hard to get, I like it.
-When hell freezes over. -I can arrange that, actually.
Get in the car.
Anyway, with the help of my therapist, Dr. Linda...
I know, so LA.
I found a way to keep working alongside the detective
and her douche of an ex-husband, Dan,
and a rather lovely forensic scientist called Ms. Lopez.
Just make out already and get it over with.
Past couple of years, we've been through a lot.
You're going to send me into the life of Charlotte Richards?
Deal with it, Mother!
Maze...
became a bounty hunter.
I was bored, had nothing to do.
Amenadiel lost his wings, then got them back
and flew a good friend of ours up to Heaven.
But I know what you're really thinking.
"Has that detective finally realized that she's madly in love with me?"
Well, I think she nearly did,
but then she saw my true face.
Proof that indeed I am the Devil.
So grab a drink. You'll need one.
The fun's just begun.
There's no hiding.
