Non Spoiler Review- Another mediocre episode of 'Gotham' that doesn't really bring anything new or too surprising for the series that continues to crowd episodes with multiple subplots and characters. This episode isn't bad but isn't necessarily "great" either but I continue to watch the series because I have started it and would like to at least stick with it in hopes it will improve.
*******There will be Spoilers from this point on*******
Highlights of the episode
1. Gordon kills the Ogre- The Ogre arc is finally brought to an unsatisfying conclusion when Gordon quickly kills the Ogre. I wasn't satisfied with his death considering how important this arc seemed as it was introduced after 'Gotham' returned from it's break but it was a little too stretched out to end this quickly. unfortunately I liked this villain and was interested in the character so it's disappointing to see another villain quickly killed off on the show.
2. Riddler Origin- The Riddler was given more of an origin as he must cover up his first murder and it's interesting to see him include a riddle in a letter etc. I enjoy his character and can;t wait to see him further advance towards his villainous identity.
3. Penguin starts a war- Probably the most interesting point of the episode was the revelation that Penguin was further manipulating a situation to create a gang war between Falcone and Maroni. It seemed as though Penguin was planning to assassinate Maroni when it is revealed he set up the assassin to fail sparking the war. I am honestly quite excited to see Penguin manipulate those around him given that I consider Penguin the best part of the series.
4. Bruce continues investigating- Bruce continues to investigate and learns more about the corruption within his company. He even meets Lucius Fox who is a Batman character from the comics, etc which was cool to see on the show. I'm interested in seeing where Bruce's investigation leads him.
5. Gordon owes Penguin another favor- So it seems that Jim Gordon owes Penguin another favor and I can;t wait to see what Penguin asks for from Gordon.
