 Lucifer fainted and woke up in a dark, filthy basement. He was tied up against a wide pipe going up to the ceiling. His chest to the pipe. He was naked from the waist up and had a nasty pain at the back of his head. He figured someone pulled a – hit me on the head and dump in the dessert – stunt on him again. He couldn't undo the ropes around his hands. He tried as hard as he could to pull them off but the only thing he accomplished was slicing his own flesh.

A few minutes later, Cain entered the room. After all the secrets he spilled out Lucifer was not surprised it was him.

"You're awake, good", said Cain.

"You know, I would never have thought of you as the foreplay type. I must say I'm impressed, but truth be told I am not in to you mate", Lucifer said while smiling.

"Yeah that's a bummer. But it's also not the reason you're here."

"Oh let me guess, you need someone to tell your problems to. Well, Cain you've lived longer on Earth than I have so you should know that there is a brilliant invention out there called mobile phone"

Cain frowned, "You're not that funny. Lucifer, we made a deal for you to kill me once and for all and you failed each and every time you tried. I realized I am never going to die. And you told me, that your wings grew back when I threw you in the dessert"

Lucifer was confused, but he kept listening. "And..?"

"So I thought to myself, Cain continued, that if your wings are the pillar of divinity, then they would be able to kill me."

"Excuse me?" Lucifer said, worryingly.

"I could make a weapon out of those things, it's the only option I have left"

"So you want to cut them off? Well you'll be doing me a favor. Go right ahead."

"Oh I'm not going to cut them off Lucifer. I'm going to rip them off, again and again. Like you killed me over and over again without stopping to ask me how I felt about it"

"The deal was to kill you, and you're an immortal, sorry if I wasn't gentle", Lucifer was angry and kind of worried.

"Listen, you only need one set of wings, cut these off and let me go, let's not make a mess of things."

"Sorry, but I'm not letting you off that easy. This is my last chance. And trust me, torturing you was something I wanted to do since the first time I heard you open your mouth"

Back at the precinct,

Chloe kept calling Lucifer but he wasn't answering. Something she expected of him. Last time they spoke he said he was going to see Dr. Linda for their weekly appointment and return to help with the case. So she decided to call Linda.

"Chloe? Hi, how are you?"

"Hey, I'm good. I was just wondering is Lucifer still with you?"

"Um no. Lucifer never came here. He missed his appointment. Tell him he will pay me double next time for this."

"What? He isn't answering his phone. He told me he was heading to you", she started to worry.

"Well I don't know"

"Ugh, I need to work on this drug case and I need his Lucifer-ish expertise. But now he's disappeared. Again. If you hear anything from him please let me know."

"Yeah, definitely"

She hangs up, calls Maze and gets nothing. So she goes to his apartment. Empty there as well. Now she was worried. She always tried not to worry because she always thought she'd find him in a club making out with a prostitute or somewhere making deals. They solved the last five cases together brilliantly. And she was proud of him. She wanted to ask him out to dinner to discuss their successes. But to also discuss her feelings. They got closer after their quarrel over the sinner man. She thought something had sparked between them again. But she never said anything, she doesn't go for it because she thinks Lucifer will go to Vegas and come back married again or just simply ruin it between them.
