Lucifer Morningstar
Episode 1
EXT: BIGLIN RESIDENCE - NIGHT
Cop cars line the street as officers are busy working a fresh
murder scene in a middle-class suburban neighborhood. Chloe
and Lucifer arrive and walk past the yellow crime scene tape
to find Ella standing on the porch visibly shaken.
Chloe Decker
So, what's the story today?
Chloe notices Ella is upset. 😞
Chloe Decker
Wait...Ella, Are you ok?
Ella Lopez
(Takes a deep breath)
I'm fine. It's a bad one. One dead.
Jason Biglin. White male, 38. His
wife, Miranda, woke up to find him
in the living room. Really gruesome
scene.
lucfer
I'll take the wife as the murderer
for 800, Detective.
Chloe looks at Lucifer disapprovingly.
lucfer
What? I've been watching more of
the television recently. Honestly,
I'm starting to understand why you
humans spend so much time on shows.
They can be quite addicting!
Chloe Decker
(Turns back to Ella)
Was Miranda the only one in the
house?
Ella Lopez
When she found him, yes, but that's
the thing. They have two daughters.
Chloe Decker
A kidnapping gone wrong?
Ella Lopez
Not so sure it went wrong. Looks
like someone was sending a message.
lucfer
Why would anyone go through all
that trouble to obtain a child?
Self torture perhaps.
Chloe Decker
You know, not everyone is so
disgusted by children as you are.
lucfer
Yes, Detective, but not everyone is
as smart as me.
INT: BIGLIN RESIDENCE - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
Chloe and Lucifer enter the house and immediately scan the
living room wall. We then see the message. Jason Biglin is
mounted on the wall with his arms extended mimicking a
crucifixion.
lucfer
Well... This looks familiar.
Chloe Decker
(Disgusted and confused)
What the hell?
lucfer
Yes, I agree. This does seem like
something that would happen down
there. Bit extreme though. Quite
cliche in the world of punishment.
Chloe Decker
Ella, did he die from... this?
Ella Lopez
From what? Oh. Like being
crucified? Nah. It was a pretty
standard slice to the throat. He
was moved like this after he died.
Chloe Decker
Ella's right. This isn't a
kidnapping gone wrong. You don't
just accidentally do THIS to
someone.
lucfer
(Under his breath to
himself)
Tell that to Pontius Pilate.
Lucifer quickly deep in thought as an idea crosses his mind..
lucfer
Maybe he's in L.A...
lucfer
(Snaps back to the
conversation)
I said we need to talk to the wife
as soon as possible.
Chloe and Lucifer enter the kitchen and find Miranda Biglin
sitting at the table staring off into nothingness holding a
glass of water.
Chloe Decker
Miranda Biglin? I'm Detective Chloe
Decker and this is Lucifer
Morningstar. We're here to ask you
about what happened to your husband
so we can find who did this.
lucfer
Yes. Now tell me, your husband
had't been claiming to be... oh I
don't know... the Son of God or
anything had he?
MIRANDA
(Looks at Lucifer puzzled)
Chloe Decker
(Shoots Lucifer a look
before looking back at
Miranda)
Is there anyone you can think of
that wasn't getting along with your
husband. Maybe an angry coworker or
neighbor?
MIRANDA
No. No. Of course not. Jason was a
kind and loving man. He never
argued with anyone.
Chloe Decker
Of course. And I understand your
two daughters are missing as well.
MIRANDA
(Begins to weep)
My poor Katelyn and Jenna. They are
our everything. When we went to
bed, they were tucked into their
beds sleeping. Later on, I heard
some commotion that woke me up and
noticed Jason wasn't in bed. That's
when I walked downstairs and
found...
Chloe Decker
And the girls were gone.
MIRANDA
Taken from their room without a
trace. It looks like they vanished.
Chloe Decker
Where is their room located?
MIRANDA
Up the stairs. First room on the
right. I would show you but I can't
bring myself to go in there right
now.
Chloe Decker
(Takes Miranda's hands in
hers)
I understand Mrs. Biglin. I'm a
mother too. Trust me, we are going
to do everything we can to find
your daughters.
Episode 2
INT: BIGLIN RESIDENCE - BEDROOM - NIGHT
Lucifer and Chloe find the girls' room. It's a typical
bedroom for young girls. Pink everywhere. Barbies. Two twin
beds, one on each side of the room. One wall has decor
spelling out the name "Jenna," the other "Katelyn." Both beds
are unmade.
lucfer
(Surveying the room)
Is this what your room was like as
a child, Detective?
Chloe Decker
(Scanning the room for clues. Picking up toys
and clothes)
No. You may be surprised, but I was
a bit of a tomboy growing up.
Instead of dolls and pink, I had
blue and GI Joes. Guess I was
always trying to emulate my father.
lucfer
And like I've told you
before, Detective, he
would be proud.
Chloe Decker
(Takes a second to smile at Lucifer's comment before focusing back at
the task)
I'm starting to think they came
here for one or the other. They
either came for the girls and
killed the father or came primarily
to kill the father and just took
the girls as a sort of bonus.
lucfer
But if they didn't plan to kill the
father, why go all Passion of the
Christ in the living room?
Chloe Decker
Yeah. Something doesn't add up.
lucfer
(Grabs the fuzzy bright pink pillow from Jenna's
bed) They certainly didn't come for
these pillow sheets. Could you
ima...
As Lucifer goes to show Chloe the pillow, a small wooden
figure falls out and clunks on the floor. Chloe kneels down
to check it out.
lucfer
What is it, Detective? I thought
the tooth fairy left money not
wooden toys.
Chloe Decker
(Staring at the wooden
figure) I don't think this is a toy for a
little girl. It's a wooden animal. Looks like a tiger or something.
lucfer
(Reaches for Katelyn's pillow) It would be pretty rude if they both didn't get...
Another wooden figure falls out of Katelyn's pillow and makes a similar clunk. Chloe picks up the figure. Now with one in each hand.
Chloe Decker
They're identical.
INT: L.A.P.D HEADQUARTERS - DAY
Lucifer and Chloe are in forensics with Ella as she studies the two tiger figurines. The group is trying to brainstorm clues.
Ella Lopez
The only things I know for sure is these were made by hand and are definitely not toys.
Chloe Decker
What makes you say that?
Ella Lopez
You can see the intricate scrapes made by a woodworker. These two figurines took major time and skill to make.
lucfer
Didn't take you for a woodworker,
Ms. Lopez.
Ella Lopez
Are you kidding? Who doesn't love
some good wood bending?
Ella Lopez
(continues) If you can't appreciate high-level
scroll work and pyrography, what's
the point of even being alive ya
know?
Lucifer and Chloe look at Ella with blank stares.
Ella Lopez
(Quickly changing subject) Want to know why they definitely aren't old toys?
LUCIFER/CHLOE
(Simultaneously)
Yes!
Ella Lopez
There isn't a finger print on either of them.
lucfer
How can that be? Children's toys are notorious havens for every form of bacteria known to man.
Chloe Decker
(A light bulb seems to go off in her mind)
Because they were put there.
Chloe's phone rings, interrupting her discovery.
Chloe Decker
(Answering the phone) Hello? Where? Ok. Yeah, we're on the way.
Chloe Decker
Chloe hangs up and addresses the group.
Chloe Decker
That was Dan. There's been another.
EXT. LAWRENCE RESIDENCE - DAY
Chloe and Lucifer arrive at the second scene. An expensive home inside a rich gated community full of mansions. Dan is
already on the scene.
Chloe Decker
Hey Dan. What's going on?
Dan Espinoza
Lawrence household. The daughter, Marcella, was scooped up just after noon today . 9 years old. Same age as the Biglin girls.
Dan Espinoza
Nope. The girl was outside with the maid and the family dog.
Apparently, the phone rang inside and the maid went to get it. When she came back outside, girl and the dog were gone.
lucfer
Well then why did you call us,Daniel? We are homicide detectives not babysitters. We solve cases with murders not missing pups. Do I look like the dog whisperer to you?
Chloe Decker
Still watching a lot of TV?
lucfer
Oh yes. That dog whisperer is a magician. He can do...
Mazikeen
(Cuts Lucifer off)
Because I think the cases could be related. Two kidnappings within a day of each other involving girls the exact same age?
