I have been consistently baffled by the pacing of this show.
Everything in Mad Grey Dawn starts and ends with Ed.
Its time first for a reunion of Butch and Penguin.

Weve all lost something, including him.
Were square you and me.
Ed makes his way there to plant a bomb and continue his Take Gordon Down scheme.
Gordon and Bullock erase the station and move the bomb to a location where its blast does little damage.
If only they could tap into Eds paranoia to understand his brilliant excuse me insane plans.
As for Ed, hes still miles ahead of anyone who could ever catch him.
Gordon continues to trust whom he believes is a friend and asks Ed to run forensics on the case.
Just what Ed needed as he pockets the crowbar for his own nefarious purposes.
Penguin and Gordon go through some life-altering changes, but so does Bruce.
Because whats a little theft if youre stealing from criminals?
The robbery goes south very quickly as Butchs nephew Sonny catches Bruce and Selina in the act.
Eds plans in the meantime are going perfectly according to schedule.
He visits Officer Pinkney at his home, stating that Gordon is right behind with a few questions.
Is anyone else getting tired of how little use Gotham is getting out of Morena Baccarin?
Shes too good to be ignored.)
Of course, the tip is from Ed, which leads Gordon to Officer Pinkneys apartment.
Barnes drags the good detective back to the station, and Gordon reveals that someone is setting him up.
The scene quickly shifts to weeks later as Gordons trial has already concluded.
The jury has unanimously found him guilty, and the judge sentences him to 40 years in Blackgate.
Lee tries to be strong for Gordon, but Gordon pushes her and the baby away.
As news of Gordons trial radiates around Gotham, suddenly Barbara wakes up from her coma in Arkham.
Odd timing or some kind of twisted fate that draws these two together?
Readers/commenters: Is it even remotely possible that Ed made an error that Bullock will be able to find?
Percentage-wise, how close is Bruce now to his future Batman alter ego?
Why isnt Morena Baccarin getting better material?
Can the pacing be any crazier on this show?
So many questions, so few answers.
