Gotham Season 3: 5 Ups And 5 Downs From 'Anything For You'

3. All Brawn, No Bullets

If you did not immediately decipher that Butch was the ringleader of the new Red Hood gang then congratulations, you are not fit to be Batman and that is totally not a bad thing when you really think about it. The beef between Butch and Nygma was obvious and Butch opted out of a nice, slow cooked pork belly to throw a steak into the third circle of Hell and hope that it would escape somewhat edible.

Like we had all been turned into his mistress at our will, we all saw Butch's downfall coming. It was a stupid plan that took a character who seemingly appeared to be more than what was on the surface (i.e. he had brains to go with his brawn) and made him look like an idiot. Out of some form of unrequited jealousy, of all reasons.

His desire to 'become the hero' was almost laughable and Nygma played him like the fiddle that he made himself to be.
