Alfred slapping Cat honestly shocked me. Penguin just gets better all the time. And...the Commish AS THE COMMISH!

What terrible thing is going to bring down Chiklis? The logical expectation after Essen's death was that the moral universe of Gotham would reassert itself and a corrupt scumbag would rush in to fill the void. But instead the show has doubled down and presented us with a seemingly incorruptible superdad. We know this can't last, if for no other reason than the overall story demands a GCPD that is a sleazepit when Jim eventually steps up to reform it. I feel like capital-T Tragedy may be in the offing here; Essen was simply murdered, but I'm anticipating something much worse for her replacement. I hope not soon, though, because Chiklis is killing it. (Gotham has to be the best casting on TV.)
