Gotham season 4 episode 20 sneak peek: Penguin pays Barbara a visit
Following this past episode, Barbara Kean found herself in the possession of her own little army — while she may not be the Demon’s Head anymore she certainly still holds a great deal of power. With that in mind, she holds a lot of value to Oswald Cobblepot as he does just about everything in his power to orchestrate a new deal that could allow him to get more of what he wants. In the process of that, he also knows a thing or two about how to appeal to some of Barbara and Tabitha’s better angels.
In the sneak peek below, Oswald makes it clear to the two of them that one of the things he is hoping to do with the take from his latest mission is enlist the help of none other than Hugo Strange in order to cure Solomon Grundy of his latest ailment — basically, he wants to do what he can for him so that he can go back to being Butch Gilzean. This certainly has some appeal to Tabitha given the love that she had for Butch and Barbara seems malleable enough to be convinced to do it … provided that Butch keeps his distance from at all times.
There are still a pair of other questions that should be asked here before we get thrown too far into the thick of things.
1. Can Oswald really be trusted? – It’s easy for him to turn up promising some sort of hope for Grundy; it’s another thing altogether for him to deliver on it. We’ve long known Butch to be shrewd and we absolutely think that he will need to be in this instance.
2. Can Grundy really be cured? – We know that Hugo Strange may be able to do many near-impossible things, but somehow finding a way to cure Solomon is fairly high up on the list of things that are rather hard to fathom.
