Just exactly what "power" does RAG have (other than an abnormally long life through the aid of the Lazarus Pit)?
Eh. We know RAG will be back anyways.

I was feeling the same way, but this one was a bit better. Hopefully RAG will stay dead for a while, anyhow. Teenage Bruce Wayne chasing/being chased around by the same villain for an entire season gets real old real fast.
I liked the Grundy stuff, too.

I liked this episode. They really embrace the crazy. I'm not sure how Butch got his hand back but liked him becoming Grundy.
I think there is zero chance Ras is dead. He'll come back in some crazy way.
Alfred looks way to sharp. He looks like he should have a couple of ladies on each arm.
I thought Morena left the show. I'm not sure if she is playing the same character or a clone. Maybe even Clayface. I don't recall what happen to him.

She was the female lead on MTV's Teen Wolf before that show became ridiculous.
Having sat through ten seasons of Smallville for bread crumbs, it's nice getting a character like Solomon Grundy on Gotham.
I'm betting few have heard even one version of the Solomon Grundy nursery rhyme.
Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
Christened on a stark and stormy Tuesday,
Married on a grey and grisly Wednesday,
Took ill on a mild and mellow Thursday,
Grew worse on a bright and breezy Friday,
Died on a gay and glorious Saturday,
Buried on a baking, blistering Sunday.
That was the end of Solomon Grundy.

Solomon Grundy is a zombie who regenerates every time he "dies". He's pretty much "immortal" (if a zombie can be immortal). Mostly he comes back a stupid brute, occasionally he comes back intelligent and sometimes kind and gentle. The '90s run of Starman has a take on Grundy that will blow your mind.
