Last week’s Gotham was super crazy from the start with an insane Barbara (Erin Richards) dream sequence. She sets out to kill Jim (Ben McKenzie), by luring him into an ambush, and holding him and Lee (Morena Baccarin) hostage. They get away with the help of a smart Bullock (Donal Logue) and the GCPD. While chasing her, she falls and went into a coma. Galavan (James Frain) tries to get Bruce (David Mazouz) to sign over the company, but is arrested in front of him, after the cops find the Mayor James. Nygma (Cory Michael Smith) goes to bury Ms. Kringle, and ends up killing some random guy, and runs into Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor), who needs help.

Last week on Gotham, Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor) and Butch (Drew Powell) go to rescue his mommy, but the worst happens. Butch is no longer a slave, so he turned on him, and Tabitha (Jessica Lucas) kills Penguin’s one true love – his mom. Jim and Bullock (Ben McKenzie and Donal Logue) find out that Galavan (James Frain) is behind all of it, so when Penguin and his army of penguins attack the mayoral celebration (Galavan won unopposed), Jim is not surprised when Penguin tells him. Galavan is surprised though. Selina and Silver (Camren Bicondova and Natalie Alyn Lind) have a showdown about Bruce (David Mazouz), but Silver won. Selina may be streetwise, but she’s not wise to the ways of bitchy girls. Nygma (Cory Michael Smith) and evil Nygma try to cover up his murderous tracks.

Some spoilers (not all) ahead!

Last week on Gotham, there’s a new captain, and he won’t take any s***. His name is Captain Nathaniel Barnes (Michael Chiklis). He immediately fires a bunch of corrupt cops and forms a “Strike Force,” headed by Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie), made up of newbies. He wants to hit Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor). You know who also hits Penguin? Theo Galavan (James Frain). He kidnaps Mommy Cobblepott (Carol Kane), and forces Penguin to take out the mayoral competition, using the fake attempt on his life (also by Penguin) to declare his candidacy. Jim knows it’s Penguin, but they have that dirty little deed between them. Bruce (David Mazouz) meets Silver St. Cloud – his new love interest and also Theo’s niece. Alfred (Sean Pertwee) is cruel to Selina (Camren Bicondova), and actually hits her. Nygma and Ms. Kringle (Cory Michael Smith and Chelsea Spack) have dinner, and it’s a surprising and creepy success (the creepy is not the surprising part).

Spoiler alert!
