** The episode as a whole seem like a combined jab at how far musical quality has declined and the media obsessed culture of TheNewTens.

* BittersweetEnding: As Dean pointed out; they stopped Lucifer and saved the crowd. However, Sam pointed out that they still failed to save Vince Vincete and that their war against Lucifer is gradually becoming a hopeless cause as more innocents will die by his hands. All the Winchesters are doing is delaying the inevitable.

* MotiveRant: Lucifer goes on one when confronted by Dean and Sam. It turns out this time around he has no motive, save for random violence for the fun of it.



* SuicidalCosmicTemperTantrum: It's clear Lucifer is deeply hurting over the feeling of being abandoned by God again after helping him fight Amara, so he's taking out all his built up rage on anything and everything. He doesn't even care about heaven or hell anymore.
