They give him a ride back to L.A., where he promptly goes to see Lucifer and spills everything to him. He needs the devil to be his muscle and beat up the Los X gang members while he gets the box of cash. But Lucifer refuses to be a hired goon and instead wants to do this his way: by letting money (and himself) do the talking.<\/p>\n<p>So while Dan sneaks into the back of the Los X\u2019s bike shop, Lucifer waltzes in the front (and is surprised they sell regular bikes, not motorcycles). He starts talking to the people inside (including the woman Dan was transporting) about his dad\u2019s recent announcement that he\u2019s retiring, while Dan ends up cuffing a guy trying to take his box of cash. The detective encounters a dog on his way off the property and runs inside the shop. The prisoner recognizes him, and all hell breaks loose. Lucifer sends Dan on his way (on one of the bikes) as he begins to advance on the gang members with his glowing red eyes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1000557\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1000557\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1000557\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan.jpg\" alt=\"Lucifer Season 5 Episode 12 Dan Head\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan-450x253.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan-1012x570.jpg 1012w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan-1014x570.jpg 1014w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-head-dan-570x321.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1000557\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Netflix<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>But as Dan\u2019s biking away, he notices something red leaking out of the box, crashes, and falls right before Luis\u2019 partner\u2019s head lands next to him. \u201cYou never look in the box,\u201d Luis admonishes as he picks up the body part.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Ticking_Clock\"><\/span>A Ticking Clock<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, Luis is in L.A., and after he brings Dan back to his apartment, he reveals the truth: His partner kept his books for him and betrayed him to the Russians. The Russians are his competition, and he was sending his head as a message. Luis couldn\u2019t risk his own guys, so he used Dan: If he was killed, he wouldn\u2019t lose anything, and if he wasn\u2019t, he\u2019d be on the hook for transporting human remains across crime syndicates. That guy who was stealing the box? Also works for Luis and was going to kill the Russians\u2019 bookkeeper for him. So now Dan must do it \u2014 if he wants the antidote to the poison Luis injected him with that will kill him 10 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Refusing to actually kill someone, Dan turns to forensic scientist Ella Lopez (Aimee Garcia) in hopes that she can tell him how to fake a murder. She can. But when he drives out to the bookkeeper\u2019s cabin and tries to explain to her what he\u2019s going to do (he has pig\u2019s blood and ground meat to make it look real), she knocks him out and takes off in his car. He calls Amenadiel for help. The angel\u2019s offended: \u201cDan, I\u2019m not an Uber.\u201d But Dan had no other choice, and Amenadiel picks him up and flies him home.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1000554\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1000554\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1000554\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-amenadiel-dan.jpg\" alt=\"Lucifer Season 5 Episode 12 Amenadiel Dan\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-amenadiel-dan.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-amenadiel-dan-450x252.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-amenadiel-dan-1014x567.jpg 1014w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-amenadiel-dan-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lucifer-512-amenadiel-dan-570x319.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1000554\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Netflix<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Once there, he finds Maze waiting for him, and she has quite the laugh at his expense once he fills her in on his day.

Meanwhile, Maze will take care of \u201ckilling\u201d the bookkeeper.

He has her slap him and tells the Russians he\u2019s seeing her casually and didn\u2019t give her his real name. They buy it, especially after she throws water in his face. Then comes Lucifer telling Dan he can\u2019t be at the meet due to his history with the Russians, so who will be the detective\u2019s backup? His improv class, thinking it\u2019s just a gig.<\/p>\n<p>Everything, of course, goes haywire at the meet: Maze brings the bookkeeper alive (so Luis can kill her himself), Luis calls Dan \u201cDanimal\u201d and the Russians realize he\u2019s been lying, the Los Xers show up, and Dan\u2019s improv friend gets too into the role. Everyone starts shooting and killing each other, Dan chases after the vial with the antidote, and Luis shoots it out of his hand once he gets it. Then Maze takes a bullet for Dan and dies in his arms.

Not everyone was in on it, Maze informs Dan; he should call Amenadiel, Linda, Ella, and Chloe and let them know he\u2019s OK.<\/p>\n<p>Lucifer, of course, was behind the prank. It only took countless hours of meticulous planning and dozens of favors called in and cost $5,004,157. In the devil\u2019s mind, it was totally worth it. But how did he control everything? As Lucifer explains, Dan\u2019s very predictable. He\u2019ll never give up, and whenever he\u2019s given a choice, he\u2019ll always do the right thing.<\/p>\n<p>To Lucifer\u2019s surprise, Dan thanks him. He needed this crazy day to get through the weird place he\u2019s been in lately. But that\u2019s not why Lucifer did it. So why did he? \u201cBecause you f**king shot me, Daniel,\u201d he reminds him, and they drink. A fitting ending for a wild, crazy (and fun) episode.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Lucifer<\/em>, Season 5B, Streaming Now, Netflix<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
