It attaches in California when the jury is empaneled and sworn in. But, a retrial based on a mistrial is of "manifest necessity" and does not trigger the double jeopardy prohibition (just like a remand for retrial does not). Long esoteric story short: Dan risking a mistrial (or Charlotte doing the same) would have necessitated a second trial, and such trial would not violate the prohibition on double jeopardy (even though jeopardy would have attached at the empaneling and swearing of the jury. Thanks, xtwheeler. That's a really concise summary! Link to comment
sinkwriter December 22, 2016 Share December 22, 2016 I didn't know this was the last episode until after winter break. I didn't realize just how much I was enjoying this show every week until it wasn't on and I kept wishing it was! Going through a bit of Lucifer withdrawal. :D 6 Link to comment
sinkwriter January 17, 2017 Share January 17, 2017 It's been so long since the show's been on, I feel like I need to rewatch this episode before watching the one that just aired tonight so that I can remember what happened last. (Not that rewatching this show is in any way a hardship. *GRIN*) 1 Link to comment
andipandi July 1, 2019 Share July 1, 2019 late to the party doing a binge via netflix... kudos to this episode for the courtroom scenes and really selling the personality growth of Lucifer. I was, like many people, dismayed to find season 2 lucifer a bit more boring/tamed since season 1... I missed the rowr. However, the "homeless magician" episode which showed him spiraling - drinking, kissing, trying to forget killing uriel... despite Tom Ellis pulling of that look, the desperate pain was totally not sexy but instead moving. After that I was willing to accept the personality growth. The acting sells it. Normally, I dislike obvious/forced UST but the kiss at the end here, seems very genuine, and rowr, in a totally different way. Oof. I predict a slow roll from here of course, but if the story sells it, it won't seem like pandering. Link to comment

Goddess is fricking bitch. (Sorry for the language) Why does she think that making Lucifer leave Earth will open the pearly gates to the Silver City? Link to comment
