This episode primarily stumbles around a pointless bomber plot that unfolds into a bunch of nothing. This is only met with equal emotionless scenes involving a lonely Jim Gordon bemoaning (maybe?) the loss of Barbara and the arrival of Harvey Dent.
This week's Gotham was a fine-enough connect-the-dots episode, one whose implications are characteristically more interesting in the abstract than in the moment.
The case-of-the-week is compelling, the mob power struggle continues to move in interesting directions, and we even get some wonderful development in terms of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle.
Holy wheel-spinning, Batman! While Gotham has given us some strong episodes and a couple of dull ones, it's waited until tonight to serve up an almost completely immobile nothing-fest.
