“Lucifer” season 3 episode 8 is promising to be the funniest episode of the show. The plot will focus on Morningstar (Tom Ellis) and Chloe (Lauren German) working on a new homicide case, and the detective will have to learn some dating tips from the devil to accomplish the task.

A preview video of next episode posted on YouTube shows Chloe going to a dating mixer to find a killer. When a handsome young man approaches to talk to her, she has a word with her backup team, which consists of Dan Espinoza (Kevin Alejandro) and Morningstar.

Morningstar will whisper tips into Chloe’s ear to make the dating experience interesting for the potential killer. But the sheer awkwardness of the whole experience will be fun to watch.

“You look like a demented witch on crack,” Morningstar tells Chloe about the way she forces a laugh. “It’s good job I’m here,” the devil tells Dan. The two characters will be sitting in a van outside the venue to help Chloe and rush in if the situation demands it.

The fun-filled episode is needed after the emotionally intense death of reporter Reese (Patrick Fabian). Although things were practically over between him and his ex-wife, Linda (Rachael Harris) will be shaken by the sudden turn of events. According to the synopsis of the episode, Amenadiel (D.B. Woodside) will help the doctor deal with the pain. Will Linda blame herself for the death of her ex-husband?

Another reason the fun will be much-needed is that the Sinnerman finally reveals himself in episode 9. Both Morningstar and Chloe will come face-to-face with the new villain in the mid-season finale, setting the stage for the next half of the season.
