Chloe arrives at the scene of the murdered man, and Ella explains that the killer shot him and then tossed him over the bridge. The detective wonders if Ella is okay, and Ella shrugs off the death.

She notices that Lucifer isn't there, just as Lucifer and Eve pull up behind Chloe. Chloe says that she's worried that Eve is rubbing off on Lucifer in a bad way, just as Lucifer comes over with Eve and calls to Chloe. Eve says that she's there to learn from Chloe about how to catch criminals, and Chloe talks to Lucifer privately. She says that it's not going to work having Eve there, insisting that it's serious. Lucifer says that if Chloe doesn't want them there then they'll find the killer on their own, and Chloe gives in. Eve is listening and cheers, and Lucifer figures that it'll be fun.
Later at the station, Eve goes over the wanted posters looking for guilty-looking criminals to punish. Chloe gets a call but refuses to accept it, and tells Lucifer that it was nobody.
Dan complains to Ella about Eve coming along, and Ella says that Eve is sweet. Ella talks about how they might as well do whatever makes them happy because they could die any second, and says that they can't investigate Julian's story because he didn't file any charges. She points out that the house has probably been professionally cleaned since the incident, and Dan agrees. As Dan leaves, Chloe, Lucifer, and Ella visit Ella.

At the station, Ella comes by Chloe's desk and Chloe says that someone paid Pony Boy through a shell company. Ella says that she thinks somebody broke Sofrelli's bones before they killed him, and Lucifer asks what it has to do with Julian. Chloe and Ella figure that Jacob wanted revenge himself and borrowed Pony Boy's gun to do it. Once Ella and Chloe leave, Lucifer tells Eve that he broke Julian's back and Jacob killed an innocent man, and Jacob needs to be punished.
Chloe, Lucifer, and Eve go to see Jacob and tell him that Sofrelli had the same spinal injury as Julian. Jacob admits that Julian is a bad person and that's why he excised him from the family. Chloe notes that one of Jacob's companies pays Pony Boy's bills, and Lucifer notes that Jacob constantly bailed Julian out of jail. Jacob tells them that maybe one of Julian's friends decided to make the killer pay, and Lucifer says that Julian told him that Jacob is even a worst person than he was. The businessman tells them that they need evidence, and Lucifer suggests that Chloe leave so he can punish Jacob. Chloe sees Lucifer loses his temper and bend a chair, and Eve tells Lucifer to do it. The detective tells Lucifer to leave, and after a moment he stops, tells Jacob that it isn't over, and goes.
At the station, the trio go over the case and Chloe points out that Jacob will double his legal defense now that Lucifer threatened him. Pony Boy has already posted bail, and Eve is disappointed that they don’t get to punish anyone. Chloe dismisses Eve and tells Lucifer that she thinks Eve is a bad influence on him. She notes that she also punishes people but there is a right way and wrong way to do it. Lucifer angrily says that it's his job to punish people and when he doesn't, bad things happen.

Ella goes over the autopsy report with Chloe and says that one of Sofrelli's fingers were broken post-mortem when a ring was removed. Chloe isn't paying attention, and asks if there's such a thing as celestial judgment. She wonders why they should bother arresting criminals, and Ella explains that she was religious and when she used to believe, she thought that she was doing her part to uphold right and wrong. Now she believes they're all that people got and they have to hold criminals accountable because Heaven and Hell don't exist. Ella insists that the Devil doesn't exist, noting that he started out as an angel. She figures that someone can't be all good and then turn evil. Chloe focuses on the point that Lucifer used to be an angel and leaves.
Amenadiel shows Remiel a playground and says that both he and Linda realized how wonderful a child would be.

At the penthouse, Lucifer discusses how to punish Jacob. Eve wants to get down to it, and figures that Lucifer is stalling because of Chloe.

Later, Chloe finds Lucifer on the balcony and he says that he would do anything to protect Trixie. Chloe says that she knows, and also knows what he plans to do to Lucifer. She admits that she wants to punish Jacob for what he would have had done to Trixie, but she wants to do it by the rules because she knows right from wrong and figures that Lucifer does because he's an angel. Lucifer wonders if he is an angel anymore, and says that he's never checked to see if his wings returned after he killed Pierce. Chloe tells him that he should look and maybe he'll be surprised at what he finds. Eve comes out and says that the police are done, and Chloe thanks Eve for protecting Trixie.

At the station, Chloe and Dan question Pony Boy, warning that they have him dead to rights. Pony Boy says that Julian was an idiot and owed Sofrelli money, so Julian gave him whatever he could including family heirlooms. Jacob still loved Julian, but Julian couldn't raise enough money and Dan figures that Jacob wanted the attacker crippled and then killed. Pony Boy says that it's too bad someone else broke Julian's back, and explains that Jacob found out Lucifer did it so they sent him to kill Lucifer. Chloe wonders who told Jacob that, and Dan remains silent while Pony Boy says that he doesn't know. The detective asks if family heirlooms included a ring.

Chloe comes over and Lucifer claims that he overheard Jacob saying he was going to leave town and arrested him as a concerned citizen so he can face the proper punishment. He admits that something recently made him realize that he might have gone too far, and hopes that it's not too late. As Lucifer goes, Chloe figures that he checked his wings.
