Gotham Season 5: 5 Major Questions We Have After 'Pena Dura'

2. What's Next For Ed?

Speaking of Nygma, the character is still at the mercy of Walker and Dorrance. As he's no longer in control of his actions, the future Riddler will be in need of a helping hand if he's to escape from the villainous clutches of Dorrance - a character who is thought to be Gotham's iteration of Bane.

With Gordon having learned the truth, the likelihood is that he'll attempt to rescue Ed. Moreover, Nygma bonded once more with his frenemy Oswald during Pena Dura, so it's inevitable that the former mayor of the city will do all he can to ensure the safety of the question-obsessed villain.

Again, we know that no harm will come to Ed as he was featured in the flash-forward scene in the season premiere, but it'll be interesting to see if the character manages to regain full control of his brain. Also, has the metallic chip that Hugo Strange implanted in his skull caused any permanent damage? We'll have to wait and see.
