[The episode opens up on Lucifer entering a dark room]
Lucifer: ♪ Do-do-do. My daughter loves me. I am the best dad ever. Best dad in Hell, yeah. Best dad ever. Amazing-making dad, uh. Every day's Father's Day with me, yeah ♪ Charlie? Charlie? Your father has arrived. Ready to give you a... just a big 'ol a-papa-pology. I am so sorry, Charlie. Please don't give up on me.
[A spotlight shines on a big red X on the ground]
Lucifer: Ooh! Is that— is this for me, honey? You, uh, you want your ol' padre to kick it right here or somethin'? Can do. I can kick it! You know? The whole serial killer aesthetic is new, but, uh, you know, whatever you're into. Got to follow those dreams, right?
[Lucifer steps on the red X]
Lucifer: Uh-huh.
[A glass cage drops down, trapping Lucifer]
Lucifer: (screams) Um, okay. Alright. Mm-hmm. Uh...
[Wires appear inside the cage]
Lucifer: Okay. Uh...
[The wires stick Lucifer's limbs into 4 different sockets]
Lucifer: You got me, Charlie. You-you... I know. Is this one of those pranks? Are you pranking me right now? That's so fun!
[Vox appears in the shadows]
Vox: (using Charlie's voice) Sorry, Dad. This isn't a prank. (his normal voice) It's a takeover.
Lucifer: Hey. Wait, you're... you're not Charlie. Ha-ha. Real cute. Very amusing. Tell you what, let me go now and I won't smite you and— (notices Alastor tied up) Wait. Red guy?
[Alastor waves]
Vox: Lucifer. Lou! Lucy. Come on, buddy, we're past all that, remember? We both know you can't harm Sinners.
Lucifer: Uh-huh. Explains the showboating. Let me guess— uh, the bellhop told you that one.
Alastor: Host! And, no, it seems he figured it out because you're sloppy with your secrets.
Lucifer: Sloppy? Oh, when I get out of here, I will show you sloppy, you...
[Vox teleports in front of them.]
Vox: Hey! Could you both shut up? Please? This is my moment. I own you! I own the Radio Demon! I own Hell! And there's nothing anyone can do about it. [he chuckles]
Lucifer: Yeah, okay. Whatever gets you off, guy. Not to kink-shame, but, you know, I am married. Still. I think. Oof, that's kind of snug.
Vox: Like it? It's angelic metal from my new friend Carmilla Carmine.
Lucifer: Yeah. Nice name drop. I have no idea who that is.
Vox: Well, you see, she is—
Lucifer: Yeah, nobody cares, man! Look, uh, I don't know what you're planning, but it won't work, okay? You're garbage. That's why you're in Hell. You were a failure in life, and you're a failure now. Okay?
Vox: Oh, Lucifer, you should be much more worried than that.
Lucifer: Ha! Why? It's not like there's anything you can do to kill me.
Vox: Oh, I'm counting on it.
[Lucifer's cage starts getting lifted up into a machine, as the sockets his limbs are in start to electrify. Lights shine on the machine, showing the VoxTek symbol.]
[Cut to underneath the V Tower where Vox sits in his surveillance room.]
Vox: "Failure". I'll show you failure.
