In an attempt to clear his name, Gordon steals his case file and approaches Nygma for help. Meanwhile, Penguin discovers his stepfamily's role in his father's death and awakens from his conditioning.
This was a really great episode that brought back the whole bouncing back and forth between characters that the last episode didn't have, but it actually wasn't that bad at keeping to the main story. Because this whole episode was mostly about Gordon trying to track down Nygma and end up finding out that Nygma is the one who set him up. I wish they would have shown more of Gordon actually coming to that conclusion because they showed all the stuff with him like checking out all these other people on the police force and believing that they must have been the one who frame him but then all the sudden he seemed like he knew it was Nygma the whole time. So I wish we could have seen more of that realization and not just have it be a thing. All the parts with Bruce and Selena were also really great with them sort of still being at odds because Bruce doesn't fully know how to survive out in the city and not in his mansion so he's making a lot of mistakes that Selena usually wouldn't make. So they do have a bit arguments because of that. I wish we could have actually seen a bit more of them in this episode, but I understand why we couldn't. Because of the fact that this whole episode mostly was about Gordon and him coming back to who he was. All the parts with Penguin were also really great with his father now finally being dead and him having to come to the conclusion of how his father actually died, and it was really nice to have him back the way he was and not the way Dr. Strange made him. And I kind of can't wait to see what he'll do next with the fact that he now has all this money and the place all to himself so he can basically start back up his empire all over again. I really can't wait to see what Bruce will find on his father's computer now that it's fixed and hopefully the next episode will show that. And the end of this episode was really kind of nice with Gordon going back over the files of the Wayne murders and also giving a call to Leslie just to see that she is, in fact, alive and somewhat okay. Overall this episode was really great and I can't wait to see what the next episode will bring.
