Who rats on Catgirl?
Dent is at fault.
So Bruce gets out of the library this week? What about Alfred?
Alfred gets out too. For some reason he decides to team up with Harvey Bullock instead of Gordon, whom he knows much better.
Last week Selina Kyle gave Bruce permission to kiss her. Does the 12-year-old billionaire take her up on it this week?
I won’t say, but she does ask the same question this week.
Is Gordon assigned to the part of the city that contains Arkham?
He’s assigned to Arkham, but only very late in the episode.
What’s doing with the lesbitastic Barbara Kean and Renee Montoya?
Wholly absent this week.
Does Nygma annoy any new coworkers this week?
No one new. The future Riddler has only one scene this week, very near episode’s end.
Does Penguin finally kill Fish this week?
No. There's not a lot of Penguin this week generally, actually.
The big news?
A character we’ve not seen since the pilot returns.
What else is Fox not telling us?
Alfred Pennyworth finally meets Fish Mooney.
What’s good?
Sean Pertwee. Alfred in 007 mode. Falcone’s staff meeting. Falcone lieutenant Banyon’s bowl. “Open him.” “Butler, mate.”
What’s not so good?
This episode kinda runs out of gas, if you’re asking me.
How does it end, spoiler boy?
“Yes, it does,” admits Bruce Wayne
