05/01/2017 09:00 pm EDT
WARNING: Major Spoilers Ahead For Gotham's Latest Episode, 'These Delicate and Dark Obsessions'!
Jim Gordon has always been the shining light of Gotham City, the example of how to be a good man in an evil city. However, it looks as though the champion of justice is getting in bed with the devil, as Jim appears to be joining the Court of Owls.
Frank Gordon, Jim's uncle, has been telling him all of the family's secrets over the past two episodes. It was revealed that both he, and Jim's father, were a part of the Court, and that they were the ones responsible for Peter's death.
Just before Frank took his own life, he told Jim that he was the only one who would finish his father's work, and take down the Court from the inside. He gave Jim instructions on how to reach Kathryn, and that he needed to join the Court of Owls himself.
As the episode ended, Jim got a call from Kathryn. He agreed to speak with her about the Court, hung up the phone, and turned to see a limo already waiting for him. The last thing seen in the episode was Jim getting into the car, implying he would get involved with the Court.
Jim could just be meeting with Kathryn, but his conversations with Frank make it seem like he will be donning a white mask in the near future.
His next steps will be revealed on next Monday's new episode of Gotham, 'Heroes Rise: The Primal Riddle'.
