More rebus puzzles

Question

Yet another rebus. I have a feeling this one will go quick.

What is this picture trying to say?

Edit: @Hugh solved this quickly so I'm adding two more that I imagine are a little more cryptic but still in the spirit of rebus puzzles.

Edit2: Modified #2 and #3 to be clearer.

#2

#3

In @UnidentifiedX's words, For those who don't know, a rebus is where words are represented by a picture and you try to figure what word or phrase the picture is trying to represent.

Is #3 rot13(qrzbargvfngvba)? – Ébe Isaac Feb 27 '20 at 05:45 — Ébe Isaac, Feb 27 '20 at 05:45

The later two puzzles were edited in after the posting of this answer.

I believe that the solution to the rebus puzzle is:

Lo and behold, as "Lo" and "be" are holding hands.

Nice, probably too easy so I just edited in two more! – anodyne Feb 27 '20 at 02:48

So, my guess for combined 2 and 3

2 - Working from home

We're King from Home - Changing to, WOR - KING from home

3 - The devil is in the details

666 or devil in D-Tails

Thoughts -

I think one puzzle at a time would be best next time :)

Plus, I think Hugh should get the check mark as two more were added after the original 1 was solved.

I believe #2 is rot13(eblnyyl cvffrq) – Avi Feb 27 '20 at 16:47
Post it. All your friends are doing it. :) – MacGyver88 Feb 27 '20 at 16:48
Point taken. Didn't want to spam the page with rebuses but editing the post repeatedly was clunky. @Avi he actually looks quite happy though – anodyne Feb 27 '20 at 16:50
@anodyne That's because he already went to the outhouse... you should've seen his face going in. – Avi Feb 27 '20 at 16:51
@anodyne, Do one a day or something. Not as big a deal as you may think. People like these. – MacGyver88 Feb 27 '20 at 16:52
@Avi LOL. And noted, I'll do that in the future instead! – anodyne Feb 27 '20 at 16:55
Thanks @MacGyver88 for the attempt to get 2 solved. I'll note that the king seems to be coming "from home". – anodyne Feb 27 '20 at 17:31
@anodyne, rot13(qvq jr ona gur xvat sebz ubzr?) – MacGyver88 Feb 27 '20 at 17:40

@MacGyver88 nope but we're may pronounce he's from home. :) – anodyne Feb 27 '20 at 17:47

@MacGyver88 That's it! Nice, and thanks for taking the time to complete all three solutions. – anodyne Feb 27 '20 at 17:53
I'd suggest changing "we're" to "were" for a more universal homophone, as in a lot of places they're pronounced quite differently, making the puzzle almost impossible. – Matthew Jensen Feb 27 '20 at 22:11
Congratulations on getting the last two! I thought about it for a bit then gave up. – user46002 Feb 28 '20 at 02:33

@Hugh, Thanks. I just knew it had to be done to preserve completeness. – MacGyver88 Feb 28 '20 at 13:40
