Mr. and Mrs. Mazikeen Smith - S3-E3
Factual error: The therapist says to stop the bleeding, Maze will have to remove the bullet and stitch him up. Gunshot wounds are complicated. To remove the bullet one must first perform an X-ray to see where it is, and after the surgery is completed, especially for a gutshot, surgical drains need to be installed till the wound heals. It's a hollow space that will fill up with bile and nastiness and drains are needed to collect the fluid, or else it will just get infected. If only it were that simple. (00:26:30 - 00:27:00)
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.
