Plot
At the hospital, James Gordon and Bruce Wayne check in on Alfred Pennyworth who covers up Reginald Payne's attack on him since he didn't want to set the police on him. As Gordon leaves, Alfred struggles to get out of his bed as Bruce tells him to stay in bed. At the prison facility, Fish Mooney meets Dollmaker (Colm Feore) who has heard about Mooney's actions. Mooney tells Dollmaker about her history with Falcone and wants Dollmaker to let her become her partner. Gordon and Harvey Dent learn from Sarah Essen that Commissioner Gillian Loeb was able to find a witness to get Arnold Flass exonerated. When Gordon visits Loeb, he showed Gordon footage where Bullock had stated about presenting false evidence against Flass. Upon confronting Harvey Bullock, Gordon learns from him that a police sergeant working for Loeb had a way to get Bullock to cooperate with him. Gordon and Dent interrogate an ex-partner Charlie Griggs (Michael J. Burg) of Loeb in order to find out the hold that Loeb has on some police officers which leads them to bookmaker Xi Lu (Perry Young). Bruce reads Alfred a story as Selina Kyle visits them upon Ivy Pepper spotting him. While apologizing for the attack on Alfred, Selina advises Bruce not to go after Payne. With Bullock's help, they learn that Loeb has connections to Carmine Falcone. To prove herself to Dollmaker, Mooney is sent back to the prison to retrieve Thomas Schmidt as the prisoners question her loyalty. As a prisoner is taken for surgery following Schmidt being released, Mooney reminds the prisoners that not everyone would survive. At the mountain home, Gordon and Bullock find Loeb's daughter Miriam (Nicholle Tom) in the attic where she admits to killing her mother with her father covering up. Edward Nygma discovers that a man named Tom Daugherty is dating Kristen Kringle. After getting leverage on Loeb, Gordon gives Bullock his file. Cobblepot pairs Miriam's caretakers against each other to determine who leaves for Arizona only to kill them both. Upon being welcomed by Dollmaker into the upper management, Mooney discovers that Dollmaker's facility is on an island.
