It leads to the murder of Tiffany (which seems like a drastic choice on the part of the boyfriend) just so he can frame Alfred. It’s a bit of a trope-y plot-when Tiffany’s abusive boyfriend shows up-Alfred tries to protect his new friend. In “Pieces of a Broken Mirror,” we see Alfred befriending a waitress called Tiffany who works at a diner near his new apartment in the Narrows. This is especially true for Bruce and Alfred, and the separation of their characters gives Alfred’s character, in particular, a lot of room to breath. Prior to their latest breakups, both duos have been thick-as-thieves (or at least in the same storyline) since the very beginning. I’m talking, of course, about Jim and Harvey and Bruce and Alfred.
Gotham has, in part, done this by breaking up this show’s foundational duos and letting those characters spend time with other parts of this broad cast of characters. This is the sort of lived-in ensemble drama that Gotham has always strived to be and, four seasons in, it’s really hitting that stride. When a bunch of punk kids are making trouble at the Sirens bar, of course it’s Bruce and his minions, and of course Barbara and Tabitha send Selina over to sort things out. When Alfred gets in a barfight with some murderous goons, Harvey happens to work there. When the Toymaker unleashes a bomb on a Narrows meeting run by Lee and Ed, Jim, Alfred, and Ivy are close enough to hear and see the blast.
Not only is it gorgeous to look at, but this city has never felt more lived in or interconnected. Gotham Season 4 Episode 12ĭamn, the Gotham midseason return is good.
