"You're hot."
"Now you notice!"
Another Catwoman episode, and it's interesting to see where they're going with her- good at heart, and motivated by her social conscience for good or ill. Sentenced only to five years' probation, she stands to lose her liberty for a long, long time if she get's convicted again. Will this last, with the Sword of Damocles hovering over her head.
The Batman-Selina-Bruce ironic love triangle is well done again, played for banter and humour rather than too much pathos, which could have become tiresome. It'll be interesting to see where the Animated Series takes Selina Kyle: I hope we'll be seeing a lot more of her. But is this trajectory for the character sustainable in the long run, I wonder?
More good world building for Daggett, too, one of Gotham's stable of untouchable mob bosses. His scheme this week is particularly nasty- start a deadly plague, having established a monopoly on the cure. On a similar vein, I wonder whether Daggett will ever see any kind of consequences for his behaviour?
A solid episode, good if not great. But fascinating in terms of where the now fully established Animated Series seems to be heading.
