What happened in seasons 3 and what will happen next?
At the beginning of the season, Lucifer’s wings have returned and he desperately tries to cut them off - only to see them grow back again.
Maze is seen heading to Canada to catch a dangerous bounty but everything turns upside down when she learns that the guy she’s after had been framed.
In the midst of seeing the two flirt with one another, we see a file with the name Gaudium on it.
Later on in the series, Amenadiel tells Lucifer that he’s not evil, stressing that he punishes evil instead.
Pierce gets shot in episode four but survives to - once again - confound Chloe another day.
The real Charlotte Richards returns back to Earth but has a hard time adjusting to her new life while coping with memories of her time in hell.
A reporter attempts to get revenge on Lucifer but sees his entire life destroyed in the process. In episode seven, we learn that the reporter was actually Dr Linda’s ex-husband.

Charlotte makes the effort to become a better person to avoid being sent back to hell. She ends up quitting her private firm to join the DA’s office.
Close to midway through the series, we are introduced to Sinnerman. Lina and Amenadiel finally kiss and Maze gets super jealous about it.
The Sinnerman gouges out his eyes so that Lucifer can’t get him to talk, which made for quite the disturbing scene.
There’s a flashback to Lucifer returning to Earth and it involves a lost Amenadiel necklace, a porn shoot, and a close encounter with Chloe.
Later in the series, Maze becomes frustrated that Pierce had backed out of their deal.
Lucifer admits that he wanted Chloe to choose him over Pierce - someone she became close to when Lucifer showed little to no interest.
It’s somewhat emotional to see a heartbroken Lucifer watch Pierce pop the big question and propose to Chloe, especially knowing how bad he wants to be with her.
After a bachelorette party, Chloe unsurprisingly cancels her wedding. Meanwhile, Dan and Charlotte are still together and going strong.

By episode 23, Maze and Pierce are back to their old ways of plotting while Lucifer and Chloe finally get to kiss.
Charlotte shockingly takes a bullet that was meant to have been for Amenadiel. His wings happen to return, subsequently allowing him to fly her to heaven.
Dan is heartbroken by Charlotte’s death while Linda and Maze make up following their differences earlier in the series.
Lucifer protects Chloe from a hail of bullets with his wings in probably one of the most exhilarating scenes of the series.
Lucifer ends up killing Pierce/Cain, and Chloe sees his true identity while accepting that everything he had told her is real.
And luckily the show is now back with its fourth series on Netflix!

What will happen next in season 4?
Season four will explore Chloe’s relationship with Lucifer in greater detail.
At the end of season three, Chloe struggled to come to terms with Lucifer having revealed his true devil face to her.
Executive producer Ildy Modrovich said viewers will be sent on a “journey” as the season progresses.
Speaking to , he said: “She wouldn’t just accept it right away. She’s going to go through all the emotions that we’ve been through, the audience.
“For her to be able to see his struggle, every single side of him, and she is going to feel a little bit like what he says in the penultimate episode, which is ‘I feel like you’ve seen one side of me.'”
It’s also suggested that because the show has officially moved to Netflix, there’s the freedom for producers to be more graphic with their content.
And according to Tom Ellis, fans could very well get a semi-nude shot of the actor later on in the series.
He jokingly told : “I think Joe Henderson, our showrunner, has been adamant that he wants to have my bum on screen for three seasons and now we can finally do that.”
