Some fans were confused by "Lucifer" Season 6's overall arc, and have taken to Reddit to discuss their issues with the season's logic. In specific, fans want to know why Rory didn't just travel to Heaven or Hell to look for her father before traveling into the past to confront him. While some argued that nothing more than lazy writing was to blame for the decision, others considered the possibility that Rory didn't yet know how to fly to Hell because she was still quite young for an angel. However, according to one Redditor, Rory's journey through time may have also been the result of a far more simple — and far more human — reason than those previously listed.

"She basically didn't want to see him because she resented his absence in her life," argued u/Low-Stick6746. "When her mother was basically alone on her deathbed without Lucifer by her side, she became so angry she teleported to one of the last points in what she perceived as Lucifer being around. I don't think she went to hell looking for him. I think she went to hell looking specifically for someone to help destroy her father."

It's a strong explanation, one that suggests that Rory never intended to find Lucifer or travel back in time, and only did so because she was upset he wasn't there as Chloe was dying. In other words, it may not have been a conscious effort on her part. Chloe also told Rory that Lucifer had disappeared, not where he was or what he was doing, which could have played a role in Rory's time-traveling decisions as well.
