Thomas and Martha Wayne being killed caused the zanies to come out of hiding. Liked 2 things here, Captain Sarah Essen should have stayed to help Gordon, and that Alfred is teaching Bruce how to fight. And has a no nonsense approach. We did not see how Bruce learned his skills, until the last series of Movies really. I figured that Bruce would have trouble with the boys at school. Tommy Elliott had to give him a tough time. It was nice the girl in school talked to Bruce. I was surprised Alfred took Bruce to Tommy's home and gave him the Rolex of his dad's. He told him not to break it. Then he paid Tommy back. Tommy was very surprised. Thought maybe his father or butler would come out and break it up.
It is an interesting concept to have to fight in a pseudo office to keep or get your job. So businessmen fight to and others in office watch the show on closed circuit tv. Financial business-owner Richard Sionis aka The Mask was the boss. He was so excited when Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock came to ask him about the dead guy, Coleman Lawson. "What's with all the warrior baloney?" Asks Harvey. Sionis said It inspires me!" Jim's reply is, "So it's just juvenile play acting?" "Exactly!" Said Sionis. Then after he is asked about all the employee scars, Sionis reply's," Our touch football games get very rough!" "I'd give you a good cop routine, but it's not in my tool kit!" Replied Harvey. Very funny visit to his office. Sometimes they play off each other well.
Later when Gordon finds the men in cages in the closed office building and he asks one guy in a cage, "Is there anyone else here?" Then after Sionis hits him over the head he states, "That would be a yes!" I just had to laugh by the way he said it.
I liked Bullock's speech to his fellow cops to help find Gordon. I do think other Officers and Detectives like Alverez will eventually come around to Jim's side.
Them interrogating Adams(Thumb-less guy),was interesting, he told about the hiring processes. Did like how Jim took out the other prospects, and then had Sionis down. Then when he turned his back, I knew Sionis would come after him. But I thought Captain Essen would shoot him instead of Jim take him down. But Jim punches him. Then he turned to her and said, "Thank you!" And she wasn't sure why he said it. lol.
Salina "Katt" Kyle was snagged with furs coming out of a basement. She said she had to shop. She had to talk to Jim when brought to the precinct house. "Hey Detective,miss me?" "Yes I did". Jim responded.
Barbara was not very happy and Jim couldn't talk to her. So she left town? Not sure what is up there?
You can see where Edward Nygma gets frustrated when he tries to tell stuff to the Detectives. Between Harvey and the Medical Examiner he gets shut down.
Was surprised when Oswald went to see Fish Mooney. Then she stabbed his hand with the rich ladies brooch sticker. But poor Oswald replacement Timothy. Oswald got out of him later about Butch saying Fish had someone close to Falcone.
I liked sweet Liza and Momma Fish meeting in the confessional. Then she later copied Falcone's ledgers. You could see Liza was worried about Falcone if she gave him Fish's knockout drops. She probably thought Fish was going to poison him. But Falcone does not look at her as a lover, but as more of a Daughter/Friend. She seems so sweet and pure. Fish told Liza a story of her hooker mom being killed by a John when she was just a guppy. Then we see after she leaves that her Mom is fine and don't like her stories.
