The Would-Be Prince of Darkness - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Lucifer gets waken up after his very PG foursome by Ty. When he says "Can you just help me, please?" Lucifer does not have his right hand on the shoulder of the girl, in contrast with the earlier and following take. (00:06:15)
The Would-Be Prince of Darkness - S1-E3

The Would-Be Prince of Darkness - S1-E3

The Would-Be Prince of Darkness - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Joe rubs his protege Ty's shoulders saying "But we kept it out of the press." Ty has his hand raised, while in the shot before he had it on the desk. (00:35:15)
Answer: As Cain theorises in a later episode, it's Chloe's love, not presence. This early on, Chloe had no strong feelings for Lucifer, so had no effect on his immortality. In fact even more recently he's back to being invulnerable around her after speculation that he chose to let himself be vulnerable. So while there's a degree of flexibility / retconning going on, it's all explained in-show.
