By Josh Tyler
In this week’s episode of Gotham, Jim Gordon came face-to-face with Bane and learned who was truly pulling the strings.
As the final three episodes of the last season of Gotham begin, Jim Gordon is still trying to piece together the reunification between Gotham City and the rest of America. Meanwhile, a very pregnant Barbara plans to leave the city with Oswald Cobblepot and Edward Nygma before order is restored.
On last night’s episode, reunification day finally arrives for the city, but not without some final hiccups. We are finally introduced to Bane – Jim’s transformed former buddy – and the woman behind the beast. She’s known as “Walker,” but who is this mystery lady really?

Baby on board
Over at the Gotham docks Riddler, Penguin, and Barbara are ready to set sail across the river in the fully-built submarine. However, Barbara appears to start having contractions just before they set Gotham City in their rearview mirror. Angrily, she decides that she needs to find a hospital as the duo decides to leave without her.
But it seems that Barbara, that wily minx, stole the pressure regulator valve so the engine won’t start so Cobblepot and Nygma are stranded on the island like the rest of them. They show up to recover the stolen part, but unfortunately, she’s in the middle of childbirth and not willing to negotiate.
Barbara tells them that she’s hidden the part and won’t tell them where the part is. Their bickering is cut short, though, because that is the exact moment when Bane decides to make his big arrival.
