    The roles they cast him in are perfect for his voice. Although I only know him from Batman/Penguin and Chernobyl

    I appreciate it. 1-6, Miami’s undefeated and the Yankees are in the World Series but I’m surviving.

    thanks Penguin

    Yea that was worse than what we've seen so far the violence (on screen) vs women in the show has mostly just been in arkham. I'm not gonna count Mrs. Maroni's death as violence towards women because she was all about some violence of her own. And if last week's episode was any indicator it seems like Ms. Gigante is gonna be doing a lot of the violence going forward. Guess we'll see in the next few weeks if his claim is legit or if it really boiled down to scheduling conflicts with Severance S2

    To me the only way that whole 10 minute bathtub scene/discussion about the mom being ready to die while she's still a functional adult makes sense narratively is that she goes out in some gangster mom type scenario that saves Vic and doesn't hurt Oz's mission the way Sofia is hoping to do.

    If Oz survives I want Sophia to kill his mom so he finally goes full bad. He made that comment in an earlier episode of how she’s the only one that keeps him sorta good. Can’t remember the exact words.

    Just a running theory. Jason Todd was introduced trying to steal Batman’s tires much like how Vic was introduced. Jason would go on to be beaten to death with a crowbar. Episode ended focusing on the crowbar while looking at Vic.

    I am trying to figure out if I like the idea of echoing that or not. I am hoping it is just a wink and a misdirect for obvious reasons.

    I thought it was Vic in the back of the car. They laid it on thick with him just disappearing and then saying his phone was off.

    I didn’t watch the preview, pretty sure Vic was among the people after the bombing but it’s been a long weekend

    Oz is a sick fuck, fuck him

    Oz thought he saw Vic but it wasn’t him.

    I think Sophia is going to crush Oz. She’s going to the place Oz and his mom have a special bond with. I bet she somehow gets Oz to admit he killed his brothers in front of his mom. He ends up killing his mom. Vic’s going to die somehow saving Oz.

    The preview for next week showed Oz in a courtroom. I wonder if we see a certain Gotham DA?
