Lucifer

Sweet Kicks - S1-E5

Character mistake: Benny tells Lucifer he's an ex-marine. I beleive it's the case that US Marines never refer to themselves as an ex-marine, with the quote often used as being "once a marine, always a marine" (00:09:20)

Suggested correction: First off, it was Hector who said he was an ex-Marine, not Benny. But just because someone goes against the cultural norm doesn't make it a mistake. There are a lot of Marines who refer to themselves as former or ex - Marines for various reasons.

#TeamLucifer - S1-E12

Character mistake: When trying to decipher what the letters from the dermal implants spell, Lucifer rearranges the letters and says "Hilii Fircus, it means 'children of the goat.'" However, the correct phrase was Filii Hircus, not Hilii Fircus. (00:13:27)

All Hands on Decker - S3-E22

Character mistake: Charlotte Richards says to Amenadiel that he and Pierce were "both former immortals who became mortal." Amenadiel never lost his immortality in any of the previous episodes, he just lost his powers. He can be killed by celestial objects like blades or other sharp objects. Pierce however did lose his mark because of Chloe's love, it is assumed, so he became mortal. (00:12:45)

Really Sad Devil Guy - S5-E1

Character mistake: Chloe, Maze, and Ellen are discussing a murder and the death of Vernon Gill who was killed when hit by a car after he was fleeing pursuit from Chloe and Maze. They were discussing Dirty Doug who came in last night and Maze says "he came in last night and Gill said he threatened him for taking credit for Lee's murder." How could Gill say anything when he was already dead from being hit by a car. Should be "he said Gill threatened him" not Gill said since Gill's dead, in hell. (00:30:55 - 00:32:00)

Lucifer! Lucifer! Lucifer! - S5-E2

Character mistake: Chloe and Lucifer are sitting in Chloe's police cruiser staking out a suspect's car, and they get into a pursuit with the suspect in his Porsche. Chloe's police cruiser had no police lights or sirens blaring during the pursuit. Plus they are in a heavily populated metropolis; doesn't make any sense why they wouldn't have their lights on. It's standard police procedure to alert other drivers an emergency vehicle is on route, so they can yield/pull over and take care. (00:22:20 - 00:24:00)

The Would-Be Prince of Darkness - S1-E3

Plot hole: During the credits, Chloe said of the victim "coroner puts her time of death between 1 and 3am", and she does indeed ask Ty's obsessive fan / ex-gf where has she been during that timeframe. When she looks at the security tape, the timecode starts rolling at 22:18 and goes on "for 3 hours." That does not account for the time of the murder at all, she has no alibi for the second half of the suspected timeframe! Not to mention, she said she saw Ty kiss the victim. When could she possibly have seen that? It's unlikely that before 10pm Ty was already drunk and getting randy with the girl, with the house full of guests. (00:25:00)

Everything's Okay - S4-E1

Question: Can somebody explain to me how in Season 4, it's stated that Chloe disappeared after seeing Lucifer's devil face. Apparently the cops rushed into the shootout scene with Cain and took her away, and she hasn't seen Lucifer since. What about in season 3 episode 25 Boo Normal when she worked a case with Lucifer and Ella. Ella confided in Chloe that she sees a ghost and Chloe believed her, and she said she's seen some crazy stuff herself lately. So what's up with her vanishing when she seen him.

Answer: Boo Normal and Once Upon a Time were going to be part of season 4, then the show got cancelled (before being picked up elsewhere). As such they were added on to the end of season three as "bonus" episodes, hence the continuity being off. But not really a mistake, just a quirk of broadcasting. Boo Normal was originally going to be between the episodes "High School Poppycock" and "Infernal Guinea Pig" in season 3 before being slated for season 4, presumably because aside from the point you've raised, it was fairly flexible, continuity-wise.
