Some day the darker angels of our nature are unlocked and set free.
This did not convince Bruce that Ivy should be trusted with Selina's health... or presumably of her mental health. She told him that the
seed would die unless Selina ate it
ASAP. When he took it back to the hospital, he and Alfred were unconvinced about giving Selina the mysterious
seed, but Selina wanted it. She figured that she wanted to end her own life anyway; why not give the
seed a shot?
The
seed seemingly backfired, as Selina quickly began violently seizing. All signs pointed toward Selina getting worse, and she ultimately needed to be sedated... until Bruce glanced in her room and saw her bed empty and the window open. Fortunately, the open window was a misdirect, and Selina was still in the room, standing and walking on her own. She told Bruce that she felt no pain anymore, and she felt better even than she was before she was injured in Jeremiah's twisted
Killing Joke-esque attack.
Bruce was overjoyed that his friend had regained the use of her legs and presumably wasn't going to try and kill herself anymore, and he pulled her in for a big hug, which was both adorable and prevented Bruce from seeing Selina's eyes change from perfectly normal and human into cat eyes. It was a super creepy twist but sets the stage for a surprisingly literal transformation from young woman into Catwoman for Selina Kyle.We didn't get to see Selina in action with her "darker angels" unlocked, but the trailer for the next episode proves that she'll continue her transformation into a character who definitely isn't entirely on the same page as Bruce. Take a look!
hanks to "Trespassers," we have Selina no longer suffering from the horrible twist that left her paralyzed from the waist down,
Gotham taking her down the path she was destined for to become Catwoman, and what looks like some epic action in the next episode. Tune in to Fox on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET for new episodes of
Gotham's fifth and final season.
