Genres: Fantasy
Deceptive Little Parasite - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: When Chloe and Mazikeen are at the private school checking out the other parents, Chloe is alternately holding Mazikeen's hand and not holding it between shots.
Lucifer: Dearie me, these are atrocious. What self-respecting artist would actually display these?
Dan Espinoza: Dave Maddox isn't a real artist.
Lucifer: To say the least.
Dan: All of this is just a front. You see, criminals like Maddox, they use art sales to cover up money transfers. They can demand any price for a piece of art, and in return provide whatever it is their clients really want.
Lucifer: Can he provide an eye bath? I'll need one after this.

Answer: The reason Lee can't leave Hell, like anyone who becomes aware they're in Hell, is because his own guilt is holding him back. Everyone in Hell is self-exiled, and they feel so much guilt deep in their souls that subconsciously they believe that they deserve to be in Hell.
