Dad Beat Dad
Kori's Dream
Kori and Blitzo were running around the circus as everything was caught on fire.
Kori angrily turns to Blitzo, "What the hell did you do?!" Kori yelled
"It was an accident! I'm so sorry!"
"Why do you always have to mess everything up!" She yelled as she knocked Blitzo down
End of Kori's Dream
Kori lets out a gasp and she looks to see she was covered in sweat. The sound of commotion downstairs caught her attention.
"Come on Kor, it was just a dream." Kori said to herself
The scene changed to Kori rushing down the stairs in her regular attire, only to find Charlie in a frenzy, surrounded by papers and strings, with everyone else looking on in confusion. "Charlie?" Kori questioned, worry evident in her voice.
"I just can't figure out why it's not working. Okay, okay, think Charlie. Think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think. If I try this, maybe we can-" Charlie babbled.
"Yikes." Angel commented
"Come on, come on, come on, come on." Charlie said
"Charlie? Sweetie? You, uh, you good?" Vaggie asked
Charlie looks back with sleep-deprived, insane look in her eyes that red veins were shown in the sclera, "Nope! No, not really. Ha ha. I've been up all night trying to figure out why the hotel isn't working." Charlie said, crushing a paper with hand.
"Maybe it's time-" Vaggie begins
"NO." Charlie said
"to ask-" Kori said
Charlie gets up close to Vaggie and Violet's face, holding their cheeks desperately, "DON'T SAY IT."
"Your dad." Kori finishes
Charlie groans, knowing what this means for her.
"Charlie, I know you don't want to, but we need every advantage we can get." Vaggie said
"He let the extermination happen to begin with. They just had a meeting and said, "Go ahead and kill everyone"" Charlie gasps, "Wait, that's it!"
"Kill everyone?" Vaggie asked
"I'm happy with that." Kori smirked
"No! He could get me a meeting with Heaven!" Charlie said
"Didn't we already try that?" Vaggie said
"Well. yeah with Adam, he was an asshole. But he isn't in charge of all of Heaven. We could go to the top. There's sure to be some angels who will listen." Charlie said, she pulls out her phone and scrolls through her contacts.
In her contacts, she has Egg Boiz 1,2, and 3, before her thumb lingers on top of her "Dad". However, she was hesitant to call her dad
"What's the holdup? You got daddy issues?" Husk asked
"No, we just have never been close. After he and mom split, he never really wanted to see me. He calls sometimes, but only if he's bored or like needs me to do something." Charlie said
Husk was aware that this is just an excuse that Charlie does have issues with her dad and turns to the others, "Daddy issues." Husk said
"Well I'd like to meet the big dick in charge." Angel said
Niffty was holding a knife in her hands, "The ultimate bad boy." Niffty laughs like a gremlin with excitement, holding a knife while Angel takes her knife away without her knowing and hands it over to Kori, "I bet he's scary."
"He's really not." Kori said and she reached over, taking the knife away, tossing it away from Niffty, "We really need to stop giving her knives."
------------------------------------
Scene cuts to Lucifer's house, showing framed photos of his family in a dark spooky room. Lucifer can be heard making snarling noise, as he was working on something.
"Hoo hoo hoo! Hold the applause please, okay. Oh, thank you, thank you. Oh god, who am I kidding? This sucks." Lucifer continued. In a fit of frustration, he hurls the rubber duck towards his family portrait, featuring Charlie, Lucifer, and Lilith, his expression turning melancholic.
Suddenly his ringtone plays. He picks up his phone, and was shocked who was calling him.
"Daughter? Daughter! Daughter calling?! OH! Uhm uh, uh hello, Charlie. He-ey, hey, hey Char-Char. No, no! That's not good. Oh, this is the first time she's called you in years. This has to be perfect." Lucifer takes a deep breath before he picks up the phone, "Hey~ bitch!"
The scene inter-cuts between Lucifer and Charlie's conversation, as they speak from the hotel to his house.
"Hi, Dad." Charlie said
"Hey! How are you? Oh ho. Where-where are you these days?" Lucifer asked
"You know where I am Dad. I've told you before." Charlie said
"You have? Oh, yeah uh, well, you know, I um uh-" Lucifer stammers
"I told you when you called me five months ago, or did you not listen?" Charlie said
"No, no, no, no. Just, you know, just forgot. You know, I've just been really busy, you know, with, um, important things." Lucifer said as he kicks a rubber duck
"Well, I'm actually running a hotel to rehabilitate sinners. Maybe you saw our commercial?" Charlie asked
"Oh, sadly, I missed it. heh heh. You know, I haven't been watching much TV lately. Scrambles the brain." He then makes silly noises, "But hey! A hotel, fun." Lucifer said
"Listen Dad, I've got kind of a big ask." Charlie said
Lucifer coughs and sets down his tea, "Yeah, of course. Anything in my power is yours for the asking. You just name it~"
"I need to speak to Heaven. Well, whoever's in charge up there, above Adam, above anybody. I need to go to the top." Charlie said
"Oh, no. No~ No, no, no, no, Charlie, no, no, no. That's, uh hah, no." Lucifer said
"Look Dad," Charlie said angrily before turning back to normal, "I don't ask you for much, I never have, but this, this is really important to me. It's the most important thing I've ever done. And I...need you. I need your help." Charlie said
"I don't know, Charlie." Lucifer said
"Please! Just come see what I'm trying to do with Violet's help. You'll see why it's a really good idea. And Heaven is bound to agree if I get the chance to talk to them. Please, Dad." Charlie said
"Wait, you're...inviting me over?! Absolutely! Oh, I'll be there in an hour." Lucifer said and he hung up. ♪ My daughter wants to see me~! ♪" He sang and he pointed at the rubber duck below him "Take that, depression!" He said
------------------------------------
Back at the hotel, Charlie and Vaggie prepare for Lucifer's arrival.
"Welp, we have an hour until he gets here." Charlie said
"Okay people," Vaggie said and everyone stands at attention, but Husk spills coffee over himself and Niffty collapses on the floor.
"Lucifer is on his way. So we are going to get this place presentable and we are going to make an amazing impression. Vamanos!" Kori yelled
Everyone scatters to get the place tidy and ready for Lucifer. Sir Pentious and Niffty bakes cookies, then Niffty starts sweeping and Husk is cleaning up. Alastor walks in and watches Razzle and Dazzle put up a "Wellcum Daddy" banner up. Angel puts on some makeup before closing the mirror, revealing to be Niffty staring creepily at him, making Angel recoil back in surprise.
"Okay everyone, it's showtime!" Charlie sighs and she opens the door, revealing to be Lucifer, excited to see his daughter.
"Charlie!" Lucifer yelled
"Hey, Da-" Charlie doesn't get to finish because Lucifer hugs her really tight like a bear. Unbeknownst to them, Alastor was right behind them, with his wicked smile strained and left eye twitching in anger when Alastor saw Lucifer.
Lucifer hugs Charlie, "Oh it's so good to see you. Haha!"
"It's uh, good to see you too, Dad." Charlie strained
Charlie pushes Lucifer off to give herself a breather.
"Welcome! To the Hazbin Hotel!" Charlie smiled.
Two Egg Boiz pops some party poppers as a warm welcome. KeeKee curls up to Lucifer and rubs her face against his legs. Lucifer notices her and goes all enchanted by her cuteness. He crouches down and rubs her head.
"Oh, hewwo, Keke!" Lucifer smiled
Razzle and Dazzle flew to Lucifer as he stood back up, "Razzle, Dazzle!" He starts making endearing noises, "Oh, look how much you haven't grown! Still fun sized. You taking care of my wittle girl?" He then speaks in a very deep ominous threatening tone, "You better be..." He said and then snickers, "Wow, this place sure looks, uh... Uh-huh. Yeah. Uh-huh. It's got a lot of character."
Lucifer finds the bar at the corner and was immediately repulsed by it, "OH! What in the unholy hell is that?!"
Alastor moved, forming through the shadows, "Just some of the renovations we had done. Adds a bit of color, don't you think?"
Lucifer's eyes narrowed as he looked at the Radio Demon, "And you are?"
Alastor shifted through the shadows again, now standing behind Lucifer. Lucifer turned, looking up at the taller demon as he backed up.
"Alastor! Pleasure to be meeting you, sir." Alastor said with his signature smile, shaking Lucifer's hand, "Quite a pleasure."
Lucifer's hat fell into his face at Alastor's hand shake. He fixed his hat, a frown on his face as Alastor rubbed his hand on his jacket after pulling his hand back.
"It's nice to finally put a face to the name. You are much shorter in person." Alastor observed, using his fingers to gesture to Lucifer being short.
Charlie moved closer, standing by her Dad as he asked, "Who is this? Who is this? Are you the bellhop?"
Alastor laughed, "No! I am the host of the hotel. You might have heard of me from my radio broadcast."
"Hm, nope! I guess that's why Charlie called it the 'Hazbin' Hotel!" Lucifer nudged Charlie as he laughed.
Kori appears next to Alastor and mocks Lucifer's laughter, "Ha ha ha! It was actually Alastor's idea."
Lucifer laughed again, "Well it's not very clever."
Alastor moved closer to Lucifer, mocking his laugh again, "Ha ha! Fuck you."
With each sentence, Alastor and Lucifer were getting closer to fighting before Charlie and Kori got in the way to stop them in between.
"Okay! Let's all calm down gentlemen, we are adults here." Kori said
The men in the room glared at each other still but backed away.
"I'm sorry, who are you?" Lucifer asked
Kori holds her hand, "Hi, my name's Kori Alder. I'm not only one of the residents here but I'm also Alastor's girlfriend." She said
Alastor's eye twitches when Lucifer smiles at Kori taking her hand to kiss the back of it.
"Oh." Kori said not expecting that and smiled.
"Pleasure is all mine, Miss Alder. I should've recognized you from the start and let me just say that your music is heaven. You're so beautiful in person." He said with a smirk shocking everyone as Kori giggles, Alastor pulls Kori away from Lucifer glaring at him.
"Okay! Okay, anyway. Dad, look at this lovely parlor where people can get to know each other and share secrets and stories and intimate feelings! Without Alastor, we wouldn't have been able to pretty it up this much." Charlie said
Alastor grins. "Charlie has a very unique vision. I am happy to fulfil her bizarre requests." He places hand on her shoulder, Lucifer glares.
"Oh, thank you, Alastor." Charlie said
"Quite an impressive young lady. We're all very proud of her." Alastor said and this time he looks at Lucifer with a smirk.
Lucifer clears his throat, "Charlie, dear, why don't you introduce me to your OTHER friends?"
Lucifer walks right between them before pointing his stick to the others at the table. Angel Dust tries to get a cookie from Sir Pentious, but he doesn't want Angel touching the cookies without Lucifer trying them and hides them underneath him.
"Oh, yes, of course. This is Vaggie. She's my girlfriend!" Charlie said
"Oh my golly! You like girls? well, uh so do I! We have so much in common!" Lucifer said with a smile and brings Vaggie in for a hug. "You put her there Maggie. Hey! She's so pretty."
"Uh, lovely to meet you, uh, sir!" Vaggie said
Kori whispers to Alastor, "He's trying so hard it's kind of pathetic to watch."
Alastor nods his head as he agrees with Kori.
"Lovely to meet you, uh, sir." Vaggie said with a smile. "And this is Sir Pentious and Angel Dust, our guests!" Charlie said with a smile.
Pentious hears his name being called and stands at attention, making a salute to him, "Your Majesty!" Sir Pentious said and he falls down into the cookies right before Angel Dust takes one for himself.
"Heya, short king~" Angel said
"And these are Kori and Alastor's children: Izuku and Nicolette Alder." Charlie said
"Hi." Izuku said
"You can just call me Nikki." Nikki said
"Husk is our bartender, and Niffty is our housekeeper." Charlie said
"Nice to meet you." Husk said
Niffty was super-excited to meet the ultimate bad boy that she scurries over and climbs up on his coat, "Hello. I clean. Hehehehe."
Suddenly the chandelier falls and produces a huge amount of dust making everyone cough. Kori glares at Alastor seeing how he made that chandelier fall on purpose.
"Alright, then." Lucifer said and with one swing of his own stick, the fallen chandelier disappears and starts to sing a song.

Angered, Lucifer plays golden fiddle aggressively as he gets closer to Alastor. Suddenly, a piano drops out of the sky and Alastor plays piano aggressively. Lucifer then plays the accordion horribly out of tune with the song, resulting in a temporary fade to black.

Right before Lucifer and Alastor could get at each other's throats, the front door opens, and Mimzy butts into the song.
Mimzy: ♪ It's me! Yes, it's me!! ♪
♪ I know you were all waiting for me! ♪
♪ I'm here! What a gas! ♪
♪ Took a while but I'm present at last! ♪

♪ Mimzzzyyyyyyy! ♪
As the song ends, everyone in the hotel was perplexed by their new house guest in the front. None of them spoke until Lucifer broke the ice with a question.
"Who?" Lucifer asked
"Didn't you just hear me? Why is everybody gawking? Is it cuz I'm adorable?" Mimzy asked
"If adorable you mean ugly then yes. You're ugly." Izuku said
"Good one." Nikki said
Izuku and Nikki give each other a high five.
Kori growls in anger and grabs Alastor by his collar, "What is she doing here? We have two kids and I'm not going to put their lives in danger because of her and her bullshit. You better get her the fuck out of here right now!" Kori yelled not before her eyes glowed yellow, "Understand?"
Alastor gulps, "Yes ma'am."
"Mimzy!" Alastor said with a big smile as he went to greet the new guest.
"Alastor! Sweetie, Doll-face, So good to see you! How've you been? Good? Good." Mimzy said with a smile as they hug each other.
"Listen, I was in the neighborhood. I heard you were staying at this ritzy slob factory, and I figured I'd stop by, say hi! For old times sake." Mimzy said
"Of course, sweetheart! Everyone is welcome here!" Alastor said
"Oh, how nice! So you two know each other?" Charlie asked
"Oh yeah, we go way back, ran in the same circles when we were alive. You know, this one used to frequent the club where I used to perform. He's the only one I knew who could pound whiskey like a sailor then keep up with me on the dance floor!" Mimzy said
"Oh, quite a talent, this gal. Ho ho! You should have seen her in her hayday!" Alastor said
"Hey, watch it, tall, dark and creepy! I'm still in my prime!" Mimzy said
Mimzy spots Lucifer in the open, and was immediately infuriated with the sight of the King of Hell.
"Oh, oh my stars! Is that Lucifer?" Mimzy asked, "Move it!" Mimzy pushed Pentious out of the way as she walked towards Lucifer. "Pleased to meetcha, your highness." She curtsied, "Alastor, you gotta warn a girl when she's in mixed company."
"Charmed, I'm sure." Lucifer said
Alastor looked down at Mimzy, "As much as I'd love to catch up, Charlie and I have a tour to continue."
Lucifer hears this and takes his daughter by the arms before dragging her front, "I'm sure Charlie can handle showing me around." Lucifer said
Alastor appears in front of them, "Nonsense!" He grabs Charlie and drags her forward, "We started the hotel together, and we'll show it off together. Right, Charlie?" Alastor stops dragging Charlie so she can be the one to lead the tour for her father.
Charlie smiled awkwardly, "Oh, right. Kori, would you mind tagging along?"
Kori shrugs, "I don't see why not."
As Charlie leads on with Vaggie and Lucifer following behind, Alastor turns to Mimzy, "Why don't you let the others help you settle in, and I'll be back before you know it." And with that, Alastor leaves to follow the tour. Mimzy turns to the bar and walks up to get a drink.
"So, where can a girl get a drink around here?" Mimzy asked
Husk doesn't like Mimzy's company and groans in irritation as he cleans a glass. Mimzy takes a seat and notices him.
"My, my, is that Husker? Alastor still has you slinging hooch for him, I see. *chuckles* Classic! How ya been, fur ball?" Mimzy asked
"Good! Until five minutes ago." Husk said
"Oh, don't tell me you're not happy to see me. You might hurt my feelins." Mimzy giggled
While Husker gets a drink for Mimzy, she turns to Niffty who was looking for the bugs that were scattering on the floor.
"Hey Niffty, whatcha' been up to, girlie?" Mimzy asked
"Fighting bugs." Niffty said
"And uh, how's that going for ya?" Mimzy asked
Niffty turns to one of the bug she sees, "They're winning." She sadistically pulls out a large knife with an insane smile, "But not for long."
"Uh-huh..." A glass was given to her, "Thanks, pussy cat!" Mimzy said
"Oh, fuck you." Husk said
As Husk leaves the bar, Angel and Pentious take up a seat right next to her, "So uh, you and Alastor are like, what? Friends?" Angel asked
"Well, that's your word, not mine, but I think it fits. Why so surprised?" Mimzy asked
"Well, just didn't know he had any of those. We knew he dated Kori and had kids with her, but he's been here a while and is still a big, creepy mystery. What's his deal?
"Well, you probably heard the stories. He appeared in Hell suddenly, making a splash quicker than anyone had ever seen. At first, people wanted to dismiss him. but soon, overlords started going missing, and not small ones neither. We're talking heavy. hitters. No one knew what happened to 'em, until these strange radio broadcasts started going out. All you could hear were screams. Every time an overlord went missing, there'd be a new voice screaming in the broadcast! That's when Alastor revealed himself as the radio demon, and anyone that would mess with him... well, let's just say, his broadcasts never lacked new voices." Mimzy said
"That's the story most people know, but underneath it all... he's a total sweetie! Put on some jazz and pour a couple fingers of rye and he becomes a kitten!" Mimzy said
As Mimzy concludes her story, Angel and Pentious were spooked by Alastor's dark history in hell while Mimzy doesn't seem bothered by their disturbance.
"Stop with the looks. He hasn't done any of that in a while, especially since he met Kori. She's like the only person who can calm him down." Mimzy raises a glass, "Can I get another one of these?"
Mimzy realized that Husk is nowhere in the bar or in the lobby, much to her annoyance..
"Oh what the fuck!" Mimzy said
In the creepy dark hallways, Charlie was showing her father about the interiors of the hotel.
"So, once we have the proof that redemption is possible, this whole hotel will be full of demons wanting to check out into heaven! We just need a little time to prove it. The sharing circles haven't been working as fast as I hoped." Charlie said
While Charlie was in the middle of explaining everything to her father, Husk called his owner from out of nowhere.
"Hey, boss. Can I have a word?" Husk asked
Alastor stops and twists his head 180 degrees to have his face turn to him before his body rotates, "What is it?" He asked
"You and I both know Mimzy only shows up when she needs something. That bitch is trouble, and who knows what kind of demon she fucked with to come running to you and Kori this time?" Husk said
"It's nothing I can't handle. Don't worry Husker. Who in their right mind would cross me?" Alastor asked
"I mean, you've been gone a while, and it's not like anybody knows why." Husk said
"They don't need to know, and don't you worry your fuzzy head about it." Alastor said as he rubs Husk's ears which angers him.
Husk growls, "You may own my soul, but I ain't your fucking pet!"
Alastor chuckles, "But you are! Haha!" Alastor turns around to join back with the tour.
"Big talk for someone who's also on a leash." Husk said
Alastor immediately halts, his eyes turned into radio dials. The lights in the hallway flickered from his anger rising. Slowly, Alastor looks over his shoulder to Husk.
"Aha, what did you say?" Alastor said
Before Husk could even respond, a green chain pulls his neck before he's forced down. He realizes what he's done and tries to come up with an excuse, "Fuck! Nothing! I, uhm..."
Alastor slowly approaches him with the green chain twirling from his mic-stick. The more he steps closer, the lights flicker on and off from his anger, "If you ever say that again, I will tear your soul apart and broadcast your screams for every other disrespectful wretch who dares to question me!"
Alastor's threat makes Husk shiver in fear when he realizes he has crossed too far with him.
"Understood." Husk said scared
The lights turn back to normal, and Alastor is back to his old jolly good self.
"Lovely." Alastor chuckles, "Good talk, my good man! Also don't tell Kori about our little conversation or your screams won't be the only thing they hear. Always nice to catch up." Alastor leaves the shaking Husk on the floor. Husk was too scared to even move, and was left shivering in fear.
Back to the tour, Vaggie was taking her turn explaining more about the hotel's role to redeeming demons so they can go to Heaven, most notably Angel Dust.
"And we've almost been able to find all of Angel Dust's drug stashes... almost." Vaggie said
"So, once that's out of the way, it should be much smoother sailing!" Charlie said
"Well that certainly is, uhh... is-is something." Lucifer said
"So, what do you think?" Charlie asked
"About what?" Lucifer asked
"The hotel." Charlie said
"Oh! Yes! It does- it does look much better now, doesn't it?" He chuckles, "You know, but I'm thinking this railing needs work, one good push and you'd just go right over the edge! Whoopie! Bye bye!" He chuckles again
"What? No, no, the plan, Dad! What do you think about using the hotel to help sinners?" Charlie asked
No matter how much Lucifer hates to admit it, he wants Charlie to get one thing straight about what her plans are going.
Lucifer exhales, "Alright, I mean, look, I love that you want to see the best in people, but these sinners, you know, they're just the worst. I, I don't know how much you can realistically expect from them, and Heaven?" He adjusts his collar, "Hohooo boy, Heaven, is not exactly as carefree as you might think. Yeah, they have rules, lots of rules, and they aren't very open minded as you'd hope."
"These are our people, Dad, I... I have to try!" Charlie said
"Our "people" Charlie, are awful! They got gifted free will and look what they did with it! Everything's terrible!" He wheezes, "I just don't want you to put yourself on the line for people like—" Lucifer was interrupted when a loud thud shakes the hotel, rocking the three of them on the balcony.
"Geez! What now?!" Vaggie yelled
"Well, like that." Lucifer said
To prove his point, Lucifer gestures to dozens of loan shark demon mafia on the ground holding a battering ram. The loan shark mafia were armed to the teeth with guns, melee weapons, and a battering ram as they ram the front door open. The leader of the loan shark mafia looks up at the balcony.
"Mimzy! We know you're in there you lousy bitch!" A loan shark demon yelled
Inside the lobby, Mimzy realizes that the loan shark mafia found her and cartoonishly goes down in a sheepish wince, now already busted.
"Oh shit." Mimzy said
A portal opens up by Lucifer and all three of them return to the lobby as the loan shark mafia continues to ram the front door.
"Que Carajo?! (What the fuck?!)" Vaggie said
"What's going on?!" Charlie yelled
Kori growls and turns to Mimzy, "What the fuck did you do?!
"I maaaaaay be in trouble with some loan sharks. I may or may not have borrowed 50 grand from—" Mimzy is interrupted by a loud thud, "Eep!" Scared, Mimzy cowards behind the bar counter to hide before peeking up to Charlie and Vaggie.
"You better come out!" Another one yelled
"And I may have also stolen a car... and crashed it... into the loan shark's girlfriend, but that bitch had it coming!" Mimzy said
"Are you fucking kidding me?!" Kori yelled
Before Charlie and Vaggie could even respond, the windows and the walls were barraged with fireballs from the outside. The windows crashed and the floors are meteored with fireballs.. Charlie and Vaggie screamed as more fireballs came raining on them. Niffty was horrified that the windows were destroyed after cleaning it so long ago. Angel Dust scoots back to his seat after a fireball nearly hits him.
"My windows!" Niffty said
Pentious realized what was happening while he was still holding his baked cookies, "Ah! We're under siege!" He dodges a fireball, "Ah! Take cover!"
Everyone in the hotel scrambles in panic and defense as more fireballs fall down on them.
Charlie dodges one of the fireballs close to her. Niffty was nearly crushed by one fireball before Angel picked her up, shocked.
"Look out!" Vaggie yelled
Kori gasps and makes a forcefield to shield herself and the twins from the blasts.
"What the fuck?!" Angel yelled, he threw Niffty out of the way, but she scurried around all over the lobby while Lucifer remained composed, oblivious to their dire situation.
The lobby was on fire from the fireballs. Husk tries to put out the fire close to his bar, stomping on it in anger while Mimzy hides behind the counter. Angel runs for cover, and Pentious can be heard screaming as fireballs meteor through the windows. While everyone finds some cover, Lucifer gives Charlie a lecture that makes her angry enough to where her eye twitches.
"You see? This is exactly what I'm talking about Charlie. You build something nice, you invite people in and offer them everything and they just bring violence and chaos to your doorstep." Lucifer said with a shake of his head. "It doesn't matter how well intentioned you are, they're always going to disappoint you."
Niffty was on the floor recovering the windows that were shattered, unaware that falling debris was about to crush her.
"Niffty! Come along!" Sir Pentious grabs Niffty before debris nearly crushes her.
Vaggie appears with her spear ready at arms, "All of you! Get a safe distance, I'll take care of this." She said
Before Vaggie could go out to deal with the mafia, Alastor appears out of nowhere and places a hand on Vaggie's spear to lower it.
"No, my dear, leave it to me. It's time I remind everyone why I am here." Alastor said, he turns demonic with his eyes turning to a radio dial.
Mimzy pops up from the counter, "Oh, finally! Took you long enough!"
"You better keep your head down bitch, because once this is over I'm fucking you up!" Kori yelled
Alastor goes into his demonic form as a green aura lights up from the outside. The mafia outside were just about to reload theri catapult when they noticed the eerie greenish glow before Alastor turned to his sinister demon form.
"A reminder to all, not to mess with the radio demon!" Alastor does an evil laugh
With Alastor now in his demon form, he expands his tentacle tendrils outside where one smashes the catapult, the other killing several of the mafia gangsters. The remaining gangsters panic at the sight of the radio demon's magic. Kori looks on with a lovesick look on her face.
"Yeah!" Mimzy cheered
Alastor's body grows larger and limbs become longer before exiting the front door with a sinister unmoving grin.
"I will devour each and every one of you!" Alastor yelled
Alastor heads out to massacre the mafia for attacking the hotel. As he exits the front door, Mimzy, Kori, Charlie, and Lucifer come out to watch the bloodbath.
"Yeah, show em' what you got babe!" Kori yelled
Charlie was totally appalled that Alastor is truly terrifying and maliciously monstrous. Lucifer nodded once to make his point. From the back point of view from the camera, Lucifer lectures Charlie about the sinners while Alastor devours and kills the mafia outside. Body parts spread all over the front door, while Lucifer was oblivious to the mess.
"Mhm, you see? What'd I tell you? Charlie, sinners are violent psychopaths, hell bent on causing as much pain and destruction as they can. There's really no point in trying." Lucifer said
"Dad! Stop! He's defending this hotel!" Charlie turns to see Alastor eating a mafia loan shark, "It may be a bit more sadistic than I'd hoped, but he's doing it for me! How come he can have faith in me but my own father can't?"
Nearby, behind the turned table, Angel, Pentious, and Husk saw the melodrama that was occurring between Lucifer and Charlie.
"Ooh, drama." Angel said
Excited, Angel gets out a bucket of popcorn to watch the scene unfold. Husk and Kori also pick up a handful of popcorn to eat.
Outside, Alastor has finished massacring the mafia as he shrinks back down to his usual self, now satisfied that he's killed a lot of demons today.
"Oh, I missed getting to let off steam!" Alastor said
Mimzy checks outside if the coast was clear before approaching Alastor, "Oh, Alastor! What a fantastic show! Bravo! As always. Thanks for helpin' lil' old me out of a tough spot, you're always such a pal!"
A railroad debris falls close to Mimzy, making her back away in surprise.
"Oops. Heheheh... sorry about the mess, but I'm sure the lil' bug can take care of it for ya." Mimzy said
"I think you should go, Mimzy. Now." Alastor said
"Oh pff, Alastor, you're such a kidder, you! Haha, you are so funny!" Mimzy said
"I mean it. You deliberately brought danger to this place just to have me clean up your mess. I can't have that here especially when I have two young children here who need me." Alastor said
"But you love takin' care a' me! What? You don't actually give a shit about this tacky place, do ya? Come on. I know you." Mimzy said and she pokes his chest with every word in the sentence, "You heartless son- of- a- bitch~"
Alastor casually moves her finger away. He moves around Mimzy before standing in front of her with his microphone stick placed in front, "You are welcome if you actually want to give redemption a shot, but I think we both know that's not really your style, so you need to leave."
"Well, fine! Who needs ya? Have fun with ya little princess and ya little hotel. See if I care." Mimzy said
Insulted and offended, Mimzy turns around and flips Alastor off before walking away.
Kori runs over to him and hugs him, "You really have come a long way, Alastor." Kori said as she wiped some of the blood on his face.
Alastor in turn smiles at her.
Husk was rather amused before turning back to the melodrama between Charlie and Lucifer, now with a bucket of popcorn of his own. Angel has his, but he also has a drink to go along with it. Pentious was holding a TV guide by Vox.
"This is really getting good." Angel said
Lucifer retreats to the lobby while Charlie follows him behind.
"Dad, just... help me." Charlie said
"I... I can't." Lucifer said
"Why can't you?" Charlie asked
"Charlie! You don't understand. Heaven never listens! They didn't listen to me, they won't listen to you!" Lucifer said
"You don't know that!" Charlie said
"I do!" Lucifer said
With tears filling his eyes, Lucifer begins to express his feelings
Lucifer: ♪ You didn't know that when ♪
♪ I tried this all before, my dreams were too hard to defend. ♪
♪ And in the end, ♪
♪ I won't lose it all again. Now you're the only thing worth fighting for. ♪
While he is singing, silhouettes of higher angels appear, surrounding Lucifer with spears. Next shot shows Charlie being surrounded by spears that slowly come towards her, with Lucifer noticing them in horror, and pulls Charlie away on the other side to defend her.
♪ More than anything, more than anything. ♪
♪ I'll shelter and adore you more than anything ♪
"Dad, I don't need you to protect me from this." Charlie said
"I just don't want you to be crushed by them like- Like I was." Lucifer said
Charlie: Dad... ♪ When I was young, I didn't really know you at all. ♪
In a flashback scene, a young Charlie saw her father by his workshop who looked all sad and moopy. He notices her and takes her into his lap to show her some magic. A silhouette of Lilith appears before taking Charlie away. Charlie looks at her father sadly while Lucifer gazes at her with sadness too.

As the song ends, Lucifer and Charlie returns to the lobby after traveling across the dimension to a mystical place. Pentious was teary after seeing the sweet tendered moment between Lucifer and Charlie.
"Aww, that was ssssweet." Sir Pentious said
"It really was sweet." Kori said as tears were about to come out of her eyes, "I think I'm about to cry."
"Okay, I can get you the meeting, but once you're in Heaven, I won't be able to go with you. Will you be ok?" Lucifer asked
"I'll be fine." Charlie said
"That's my girl. Good luck kiddo." Lucifer said
And with that, Lucifer turns into a violet red mist before disappearing away from the lobby. Vaggie comes over to talk to Charlie with uncertainty.
"This next part is going to be scary. Are you ready?" Vaggie asked as the two were in the lobby.
"I'm ready, cuz you will be with me." Charlie said bringing her girlfriend for a hug.
Vaggie smiles nervously. "In spirit, right?" Vaggie asked.
"In Heaven!" Charlie said with a grin making Vaggie fake a cheer.
"Yay!" Vaggie said but looked a bit worried.
