In this episode of Gotham, Theo sets his group of Maniax on the city to create chaos. After an intense battle Jerome is chosen to be the spokesman of the group. His circus background is coming in to play. He relishes creating chaos and everyone in his wake is left dead or traumatized. But the group of Maniax is getting killed off left and right. Theo had his sister watching over them and she does not hesitate take one out who is about to tell about Theo.
Meanwhile, Bruce & Alfred are exploring the bat cave. Alfred sees all that Thomas hid from his family, blood, bulletproof vest and weapons. He sees that Bruce is going down the same path that got his father killed. So he smashes the computer and a battle of the wills ensues. Bruce & Alfred finally come to an agreement that Alfred will train Bruce but Bruce has to obey without question. Alfred has to recruit Lucius Fox to fix the computer and we find out that Lucius had a great respect for Thomas. He wishes he could have done more to help. So we see him start his path to becoming an essential part of Bruce’s team.
Jim and Commissioner Essen are out to recapture the Maniax. Jim tries to get Bullock back on the job but he and his fiancee Scotty turn him down. But before leaving he gives Jim a tip that leads to the Maniax. But they manage to escape. Barbara shows up at the station and leads Jim away while the rest take over the station and end up killing Essen. Ed saves Ms. Kringle after failing to ask her out earlier. Jim is beaten up and Barbara tells him “I’m not sick, I’m free.” The acts of the Maniax pulls Bullock back in and we see him choosing truth over happiness.
I (Geoff) think this ep was way over the top an 8pm show. I had some real objections to the things they showed. I think they showed them to present the chaos Theo wants so that he can take control. But it was a a bit much for me. Karen and I discuss all this and more.
