This episode made it clear that the Lucifer Sam has been seeing isn't just a figment of Sam's imagination. From what happened this season, it seems like Lucifer had power over Sam until Sam shut him out as seen by the torture early on in the season and especially when Lucifer drove Sam in that car/van when Sam was in the passenger seat. So after that Sam learned of a way to shut him out. But Lucifer learned how to get back in control of Sam's mind.
In this episode we saw Lucifer help Sam with the case. If he was just Sam's imagination, Sam's imagination wouldn't have figured out those clues & resorted to those harsher tactics. But Lucifer's presence was still there & knew that if Sam let him back in, he would take control of Sam's mind again. So he got Sam to let his guard down & trust him only to trick him in the end. I still think whatever he did to Sam to latch onto his soul was done not primarily for torture, but as a way of getting Sam to break him & perhaps Michael free from the cage once again.
This Lucifer seems like a copy of the actual Lucifer that he branded Sam's soul with like another personality of Sam's. But it's definitely not your average alternate personality that someone with multiple personality syndrome would have because he has powers that manifest through Sam's body, like when he drove that van. Now that he has gained more control of Sam, I wonder what else he will do.
