After being canceled by FOX following its third season finale, Lucifer found itself a new home on Netflix. Since then, the show has been released in batches, rather than the weekly format viewers were used to. Season 5 was originally meant to serve as an ending to the series, but a new deal was struck and Lucifer was extended for a sixth and final season.
The will they/won't they romance between Lucifer and Chloe has been a central aspect of the show since the pilot. Fans rejoiced when the two finally got together in the latest season, but dating the devil comes with a lot of complications. Lucifer and Chloe managed to come out stronger on the other side, and their scenes in Season 5 emphasize the unconditional love between them.
Lucifer And Chloe Hold Hands
It's the little moments that make a big difference, and just this small change in Chloe and Lucifer's relationship represented a step in the right direction. They spent a lot of time repressing their feelings for each other, and there was always a reason why they couldn't be together.
For a little while, at least, there was nothing stopping Chloe and Lucifer from doing the things they never could before. Because of all the threats they face on a daily basis, they needed to savor the precious moments. Walking to the crime scene hand in hand looks like a small gesture to an outsider, but, really, it was massive.
Chloe Stand Up To Lucifer's Father
It takes a strong-willed person to stand up to the creator of the universe, and Chloe didn't hesitate for a single second. She marched over to God and let him know how she felt about the way he treated Lucifer and didn't say it too politely either.
Chloe kept adding in the word "respectfully," but there wasn't much respect in the tone of her voice. Considering that God is in charge of her fate, Chloe going off on him was proof of how much she cares about Lucifer and wants him to be treated with the love he deserves.
Lucifer And Chloe Call Things Official
Viewers had been waiting a long time for Lucifer and Chloe to finally put a label on their relationship. Things were always up in the air, mostly due to circumstances out of their control, but Chloe flat out asked if the two of them were together or not.
After Lucifer said yes, they spent the entire episode fulfilling every Deckerstar shipper's dream. They kissed more times in that episode than they did in the first four seasons, and it was nice that Lucifer and Chloe finally got a chance to act like a normal couple.
Lucifer Finds Chloe
To no one's surprise, Chloe didn't need rescuing when she was captured. She waited in her cell for Michael to come back and hit him over the head before running out the door. However, it was Lucifer, not Michael, who came for her, and after seeing Dan and Maze, Chloe realizes she made a mistake.
She apologies immediately and kisses Lucifer before pulling him into a hug. Lucifer tells Chloe, "You can whack me anytime," with a voice that says he's just relieved to have her back.
Lucifer Tells God He Wants To Be Worthy Of Chloe
At the end of the day, Chloe is single-handily the reason behind all of Lucifer's actions. She's his number one priority, and there's nothing he wouldn't do to keep her safe. Frustrated that he'll never be able to give Chloe the love she deserves, Lucifer yells at his father and blames everything on him.
All Lucifer wanted was to be someone who was worthy of Chloe, but he was standing in his own way. Thankfully, Lucifer comes around to realizing that he has free will and he is already a person that Chloe is proud of.

She puts her life on the line for complete strangers, and would gladly keep doing it for the rest of her life.
But Lucifer has become more important to her than her job, and after speaking with her mom, she realized it was time to invest her time in helping him.

Chloe tells Lucifer that it's her turn to be there for him, and she puts in her two-week notice to help Lucifer accomplish his goal.
Lucifer And Chloe's First Time
Chloe and Lucifer's first time was long-awaited by fans and the two of them. They had shared a few kisses in the past, but something always got in the way of them going any farther. When Chloe and Lucifer are finally ready to go all-in, they get called in for a case, putting their moment on pause.
Lucifer ended up getting jealous of Chloe's friend, and the two ended up in a fight. For a second, it seemed as if Lucifer and Chloe simply weren't going to happen that day. But the stars aligned and they got a scene that perfectly encompassed their love for each other.
Lucifer Holds Chloe As She Dies
Chloe's death definitely wasn't a happy moment, but it was an extremely powerful one. It's the kind of scene that hit viewers right in the chest, yet they can't stop putting it on replay. Both actors brought their A-game, and Lucifer's cries of anguish when Chloe died were absolutely gut-wrenching.
In her last moments, Chloe made sure that Lucifer knew her death was not his fault. She chose to be there, and it's clear that she wouldn't have done anything differently. Right before she drifts off, Chloe manages to whisper, "I love you," to Lucifer, packing the final emotional punch.
Chloe Chooses To Be Vulnerable Around Lucifer
One of the major things that kept Lucifer and Chloe apart for so long, was Lucifer's worry that Chloe's feelings for him weren't real. She was a gift for him from God, and it made him believe that she was being manipulated by his father.
Amenadiel discovers that Chloe is the only one who is not affected by Lucifer, making her the only one with the ability to see him for who he is. She realizes that Lucifer chooses to be vulnerable around her, and she decides to do the same. Chloe kisses Lucifer, starting the next chapter of their journey.
Lucifer Sacrifices Himself For Chloe
Because he believed his father was incapable of love, Lucifer thought the same of himself. He told Chloe he could never say those three words to her because they would be a lie. But throughout the season, Lucifer begins to realize that everyone makes their own choices. He chooses to love Chloe and goes to heaven to get her back after her death.
Lucifer was still banished from the golden gates, and the only thing that kept him alive was his immortality ring. Lucifer tells Chloe he loves her before putting the ring on her finger and disintegrating in front of her eyes. Chloe awakes in a blind rage and charges at Michael for taking Lucifer away from her.
