[Lucifer offers a low, thoughtful sound and looks back at the grass.] That's all I wanted from you. I don't care if you ever trust me; I expect you won't. Why should you? We're not friends. I don't need you, you don't need me. But the way you handle him effects how he handles me, and everyone else around him.
I'm not going to be exactly what you want me to be, Lucifer- but I love Break. That's the one and only reason for all of this.
[Talking to Lucifer at all. Agreeing to help him even a little bit. Giving him this information. Sitting here and taking the things he says. If he didn't care about Break immensely, he would be far, far away.]
I'm going to do my best to help him any way I can.
You'd better hope you're what I want, Al. [It's not even said as a threat, though the reality is simply that: be what Lucifer wants, to stay off his radar.]
Don't try to justify it to me. I already know your motives; I just don't care. You're helping me, and right now you aren't trying to hurt what I have. That's all that matters to me.

Good. But, you know, you should care if you're what he wants in a friend. At least a little.
[And reluctantly, Lucifer smiles.] I think you probably are. But what do I know?

[For selfish reasons, but whatever. It's keeping people happy so far.]
