TV Review - Gotham "The Mask"

Episode 8, in which we learn that Gordon is a serious badass - as if we didn’t know that already.

The rest of Gotham PD can’t decide who it hates more, itself for not having the balls to back up Gordon in last week’s episode or Gordon for being such a self-righteous prick.  Thankfully Harvey Bullock is there to make Gordon feel he’s not entirely alone, and eventually to shame the other cops into providing much-needed backup in Gordon’s hour of need.
Been on a job interview recently?  Be glad the hiring process didn’t include a fight to the death, as it did in this episode’s mystery corporation.  Of course, with a million dollar signing bonus at stake, more people might be willing to consider homicide in order to gain employment.

In the background of this shocking tale of workplace violence, we see that Alfred has coerced young Master Bruce into going to school - and, of course, he’s getting picked on by bigger and less socially awkward schoolboys.  Fortunately Alfred is there to teach him to fight, and by the end of the episode I’ve become significantly fonder of the brusque British butler who hasn’t seemed entirely likable up to this point.

We also get to witness more sadism behind the grimaces of Fish Mooney and Penguin.  I’ve decided that Penguin is actually not as crazy as he could be, considering how batshit insane his mother appears to be.  Fish continues to manipulate the girl she hopes is winning Marcone’s heart, and Penguin tortures and ultimately does away with the man who took his place carrying Fish’s umbrella.

And finally, the future Catwoman makes an appearance, getting arrested and calling for Gordon as soon as she arrives at the station.  How many of Gotham’s secrets does she truly know?

Tune in next week, when we get to meet Harvey Dent, and find out if Barbara has actually left Jim for good…
