The Penguin Episode 3 “Bliss” Synopsis
Episode Written by: Noelle Valdivia
Episode Directed By: Craig Zobel
Before the Riddler’s explosions, Victor was hanging out with his friends and girlfriend, Graciela, on a rooftop in Crown Point, dreaming about their future. Unbeknownst to them, everything was about to change as the election night fireworks turned to explosions flooding Crown Point, killing their families and destroying their homes. Now, Victor and Gracelia discuss getting out of Gotham and starting a new life together, but only if Oz Cobb will let Victor leave.
Meanwhile, Sofia Falcone’s business opportunity comes through, and she takes Oz to the production warehouse for the new drug “Bliss”, a sap from a mushroom prescribed to Sofia when she was locked up in Arkham. Oz sets up a meeting with the Triads to help distribute the sample batch of the new drug, but they have to blackmail the cheating underboss of the Falcone Family, Johnny Vitti, to support their new business. Vitti tries to undermine Oz, telling Sofia he’s the one that sold her out and landed her in Arkham. But Oz pressures him further and they get their way.
With a nightclub trial arranged to showcase Bliss to the Triad leader Feng Zhao, Sofia has to reveal her traumatic past to him to seal the deal. She begins to get concerned that Oz believes he is an equal partner in her business and as he apologises for his part in Sofia’s 10 year incarceration in Arkham, Nadia Maroni and her men arrive, angry at Oz’s betrayal of the Maroni cartel and they hold the two at gunpoint.
Victor makes his decision to return to Oz’s side and arrives just in time to save his boss. As they speed away Oz tells Victor to leave Sofia behind. They are really in it now.
