Titled "Anything for You," it appears that Penguin will do everything his power to keep the citizens happy. Despite his unruly band of villains, the said character will continue to put up a reputable image and try to fulfill the promises he made as Gotham's mayor.

However, Penguin may have to face the infamous Red Hood Gang in episode 5. One of the released photo stills featured the said character covering his nose against a plume of smoke. It appears that the Red Hood Gang attacked the Gotham mayor during one of his public appearances.

Episode spoilers posted on the same news site also hinted of Butch's (Drew Powell) dark journey that also involves the Red Hood Gang. Meanwhile, Bruce (David Mazouz) will start his hunt for Ivy (Maggie Geha) in the upcoming episode of the Fox series.

"Gotham" Season 3 will feature an older Ivy given her magical transformation following an encounter with Strange's mysterious Indian Hill monsters. In an earlier interview with Collider, Geha commented on how her character will struggle to accept the changes in her body and her new life.

Despite the said character's transformation, Ivy will try to search for ways that she can benefit from the situation. Apart from the physical changes, Ivy will also harbor some bitter feelings toward Selina (Camren Bicondova) whom she believed abandoned her, according to Geha.

"She has some resentment against Selina because she believes Selina has betrayed her," the actress stated. "I know there will be some interaction there and maybe some revenge."
