Violet's Dream

Violet was running from someone. She kept on running until her body froze. Violet screamed as she was being dragged back, "No, no, no." She said

She gets dragged back in front of a woman. "You can't stop the Harvest." The woman reaches up to Violet's face and begins to carve a symbol into her head.

Violet lets out a painful scream.

End of Violet's Dream

Violet lets out a gasp and starts panting heavily.

The sound of commotion downstairs caught her attention.

"Come on Violet, it was just a dream." Violet said to herself

The scene changed to Violet 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?" Violet 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

"It's never been this bad before." Ezra said

"I knew she was going to lose it sooner or later." Lucas said

"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-" Violet said

Charlie gets up close to Vaggie and Violet's face, holding their cheeks desperately, "DON'T SAY IT."

"our dad." Violet 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." Violet 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 or Violet. He calls sometimes, but only if he's bored or like needs me to do something." Charlie said

"If anyone should hate the guy it's me. He wasn't there for me when I got married, my son's birth, or when I almost died at the hands of Crimson." Violet 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

"Oh most definitely." Lucas 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 Violet, "I bet he's scary."

......................

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, Violet, 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. Violet and Vaggie prepare for Lucifer's arrival. "Welp, we have an hour until he gets here." Charlie said.

"Okay people," 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!" Vaggie 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

Lucifer lets go of Charlie to give her a breather then goes over to Violet and Ezra.

"Violet! Ezra! It's so good to see you both." Lucifer said hugging them

"Hey grandpa Luci." Ezra said

"Dad... you're squeezing... not good for the baby." Violet strained

"Oh sorry." Lucifer said and he lets go of her

"Thank you." Violet said and she walks away

Charlie clears her throat, "Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!"

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 KeeKee!" Lucifer said

Razzle and Dazzle flies by and Lucifer greets them,

"Razzle, Dazzle. Oh," He makes endearing noises, "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 snickers, "Wow! This place sure looks, uh...uh huh yah uh huh...It's got a lot of character!"

Lucifer finds the bar at the corner and is immediately repulsed by it, "OH, what in the unholy hell is that?!"

Alastor reappears from the fog and in front of Angel Dust, "Just some of the renovations we had done. Adds a bit of color, don't you think?" He said

Lucifer looked at him suspiciously, and points his stick at him, "And you are?"

Alastor reappears behind Lucifer, catching his attention, "Alastor. Pleasure to be meeting you, sir. Quite a pleasure." Alastor shakes Lucifer's cane and wipes his hand in somewhat hidden disgust, "It's nice to finally put a face to the name. "You are much shorter in real life." Alastor making a hand gesture indicating the height difference between the Morningstars.

"Who is this? Who is this now? Are you the bellhop?" Lucifer asked

"Aha! No! I am the host of the hotel. You might have heard of me from my radio broadcast." Alastor said

"Hmm, nope! I guess that's why Charlie called it the Has-been Hotel, ahaha!" Lucifer said

"Ha ha ha. It was actually my idea." Alastor said

"Ahaha. Well, it's not very clever!" Lucifer said

"Ha ha! Fuck you." Alastor strained

Alastor and Lucifer were getting closer to fighting before Charlie gets in the way to stop them in between.

"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 and Violet, we wouldn't have been able to pretty it up this much." Charlie said

"Charlie has a very unique vision. I am happy to fulfill her bizarre requests." Alastor places one hand on Charlie's shoulder and the other on Violet's waist. Lucifer is grumpy that he is winning over Charlie and Violet more than he is, which makes him very angry to the point where he growls in frustration.

"Oh, thank you, Alastor." Charlie said

"They're quite impressive young ladies. We're all very proud of them." Alastor said

"Ahem, Charlie! Violet! Sweeties, eheh, why don't you introduce me to your OTHER friends?" Lucifer said as he 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? So do I! We have so much in common! You put her there, Maggie. Hey!" Lucifer hugs her, "Oh yeah. She's so pretty."

"Lovely to meet you, uh, sir." Vaggie said

"And what about you, Violet? Where's Stolas?" Lucifer asked

"Well he's busy right now, we have our doctor's appointment next week to find out the gender of our baby." Violet said

"That's great. Can't wait to meet them." Lucifer said

"Them?" Violet asked

"Moving on this is Sir Pentious, Lucas, and Angel Dust, our guests!" Charlie said

Pentious hears his name being called and stands at attention, making a salute to him, "Your Majesty!" Pentious falls down into the cookies right before Angel Dust takes one for himself.

"Heya short king~" Angel said

"Hi your majesty." Lucas said as he bowed to show respect

"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." Niffty laughs

Suddenly the chandelier falls and produces a huge amount of dust which makes everyone cough. Lucifer and Alastor were at the chandelier when Lucifer knew Alastor did that on purpose.

"Alright then." Lucifer said and with one swing of his own stick, the fallen chandelier disappears and starts to sing

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 accordian 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 to kill, 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! ♪

♪ Mimzy! ♪

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 cause I'm adorable?" Mimzy asked

"Hell no!" Ezra said

"Mimzy!" Alastor said

"Alastor! Sweetie, Doll-face, So good to see you! How've you been? Good? Good." Mimzy said she and Alastor 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 spots Lucifer and Violet in the open, and was immediately infuriated with the sight of the King of Hell and the eldest Princess of Hell.

"Oh, oh my stars!" Mimzy gasps, "Is that Lucifer and Violet?" She pushes Pentious of the way, "Move it! Pleased to meet ya! Your highnesses." She then whispers to Alastor, "you gotta warn a girl when she's in mixed company."

"Charmed, I'm sure." Lucifer said

"As much as I'd love to catch up, Charlie, Violet, and I have a tour to continue." Alastor said

Lucifer hears this and takes his daughters by their arms before dragging her front, "I'm sure Charlie and Violet can handle showing me around."

Alastor appears in front of them, "Nonsense!" Alastor grabs Charlie along with Violet drags them 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.

"Oh, right." Charlie said

"Actually why don't you guys go instead okay. I'm five months pregnant and my feet are already killing me." Violet said

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." He said

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." Mimzy chuckles, "Classic! How ya been, fur ball?"

"Good! Until five minutes ago." Husk said

"Oh, don't tell me you're not happy to see me! You might hurt my feelings!" Mimzy giggles

Violet rolls her eyes in annoyance.

"So Violet I see you're expecting, are you back together with Alastor?" Mimzy asked

"What?!" Everyone yelled in shock

"Mom, you dated the Radio Demon?" Ezra asked

"Uh no, I'm with Prince Stolas." Violet said, she grabs Mimzy by her collar and says, "that was supposed to be a secret, you bitch!"

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 answered

"And uh, how's that going for ya?" Mimzy asked

Niffty turns to one of the bug she sees, "They're winning," Niffty sadistically pulls out a large knife with a insane smile, "but not for long."

"Uh huh..." Mimzy said as a glass was given to her, "thanks, pussy cat!"

"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. 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... *chuckles* 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, Lucas, Ezra, and Pentious were spooked by Alastor's dark history in hell while Mimzy doesn't seemed bothered by their disturbance.

"Stop with the looks. He hasn't done any of that in a while." 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

"So Violet, what's the story of you and Alastor?" Angel asked

"It's complicated and I'd rather not speak about it in front of the kids." Violet said

"We get it, Lucas and I have somewhere to be anyway." Ezra said and the two of them leave

Once the door closes, Violet begins her tale.

Flashback

"It all started after I escaped from Crimson." Violet said

Violet was running in the woods, "You cannot hide from me, Violet!" Crimson yelled

Violet kept on running until she tripped on a log and began to fall down the hill. She lets out a painful groan as her back hits against the tree trunk and snow falls on top of her.

She tried to get up but she fell back down.

A mysterious figure appears in front of her and picks her up.

"Alastor found me and at first I was scared to be around him but then he showed a different side of him. He took care of me and nursed me back to health. One day I found him practicing dark magic and I asked him to teach me."

Violet is shown lifting up one of Crimson's men and when she waved her hand his neck snapped and he fell to the ground.

Alastor smiles when he sees the dead men on the ground.

"Even though I was still married to Crimson, I had feelings for Alastor and in some way he had feelings for me." Violet said

The scene changes as Alastor and Violet then begin to make out and have sex.

"As much as I loved Alastor, I couldn't leave Moxxie behind with that monster so I left. At the end of the day we were both heart broken."

End of Flashback

Everyone stares at Violet with sadness.

"Do you still miss being with him?" Angel asked

"I can't say that those feelings have never gone away, but when I met Stolas, it kind of died." Violet said as she wiped away her tears, "I know Alastor still has feelings for me, but I'm happy with just being friends."

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 calls 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 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 flickers 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 had 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! 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

"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?!" Violet 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 picks her up, shocked.

Violet makes a forcefield to shield herself from the blasts.

"Look out!" Vaggie yelled

"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 crush 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!" Violet 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.

"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, Violet, Charlie, and Lucifer come out to watch the bloodbath.

"I don't know why but is anyone else getting turned on right about now." Violet said

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?"

"Or the fact that you were never there for me. When I first called you about Crimson putting his hands on me you fucking laughed in my face and hanged up on me. Or the fact that you and mom tried to sacrifice me when I was fifteen!" Violet yelled

"Wait, what?" Charlie said

Nearby, behind the turned table, Angel, Pentious, and Husk saw the melodrama that was occurring between Lucifer, Violet, and Charlie.

"Ooh, drama." Angel said

Excited, Angel gets out a bucket of popcorn to watch the scene unfold. Husk also picks up a handful of popcorn to eat.

Outside, Alastor nas 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 helping lil' old me out of a tougher spot, you're always such a pal!"

A railroad debris falls close to Mimzy, making her back away in surprise, "Oops. Heheh... sorry about the mess, but I'm sure the little bug can take care of it for you." 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 there's a pregnant princess who's close to giving birth." Alastor said

"But you love taking care of me! What, you don't actually give a shit about this tacky place, do ya? Come on, I know you." Mimzy said

Mimzy 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."

"Fine! Who needs you? Have fun with your little princess and your little hotel! See if I care!" Mimzy said

Insulted and offended, Mimzy turns around and flips Alastor off before walking away.

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, what is she talking about?" Charlie said

"He never told you?" Violet said

"No." Charlie said

"Violet i'm sorry for what I've done to you, we had to do it." Lucifer said

"What do you mean you had to do it?" Violet asked

"It's complicated." Lucifer said

"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 and Violet being surrounded by spears that slowly come towards her, with Lucifer noticing them in horror, and pulls Charlie and Violet away on the other side to defend them.

♪ 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. ♪

Flashback

A young Violet was holding Charlie as they saw their 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 and Violet away. Violet and Charlie looks at their father sadly while Lucifer gazes at her with sadness too.

♪ We always felt so small. ♪

♪ But we heard your stories and we were enthralled. ♪

Violet: ♪ The tales about your lofty dreams. ♪

♪ I listened breathlessly. ♪

♪ Imagining it could be us. ♪

♪ So in the end, it's the view we had of you, that showed us dreams can be worth fighting for. ♪

Flashback ends to the present.

Charlie/Violet: ♪ More than anything, more than anything. ♪

♪ I need to save my people more than anything. ♪

Lucifer: ♪ I've been dying to find out who both you are. ♪

Charlie/Violet: We've been waiting, ♪

Lucifer: ♪ Looks like the apple doesn't fall far. ♪

Charlie/Violet: ♪ Took you a while. ♪

Lucifer: ♪ I've missed those smiles. ♪

Charlie, Violet and Lucifer: ♪ All that I'm hoping, ♪

As the song ends, Lucifer, Violet and Charlie return to the lobby after traveling across the dimension to a mystical place. Pentious was teary after seeing the sweet tendered moment between Lucifer, Violet and Charlie.

"Aww, that was ssssweet." Sir Pentious said

"Ok, 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

"We'll be fine." Charlie said

"That's my girls. Good luck, kiddo." Lucifer said

He then turns to Violet and says, "I am truly sorry for everything I've done to you. I should've done more to help you. I was a coward and I hope that we can start over." Lucifer said

"It's okay dad, I know it wasn't your fault. If it's alright with you, I'll be glad to start over with you." Violet said

Lucifer smiles and with that, he 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.
