!!Season 1

[[folder: [[AC: 1x01: Pilot]]]]
* The brutal beating is juxtaposed with Fish talking to Cobblepot about her hair getting frizzy from the rain.
* Butch arguing with Fish's other goons on how to get the best shot for a video in which they execute Gordon. "What are you, a director?"
* Jim and Harvey's CasualDangerDialogue while being strung up in a meat-packing plant by Fish's goons.
-->'''Harvey:''' Hey, Jim. How ya doin?\\
'''Jim:''' You know...could be better. Thanks for trying to save me.\\
'''Harvey:''' Kinda wish I hadn't.\\
'''Jim:''' Eh.
* And after [[spoiler:Falcone saves them]], Harvey parrots his "Yeah, there are rules!"
* The comedian's joke, while dark as hell, is still ActuallyPrettyFunny.
--> '''Comedian''': I always wanted to die peacefully in my sleep, like my father. Not screaming in terror, like his passengers.
* Alfred curtly ordering Bruce to, in his own words, "get his bloody arse off the roof."
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x02: Selina Kyle]]]]
* Even as a kid...
-->'''Gordon:''' What do you want me to do?\\
'''Bruce:''' [[StealthHiBye He wants you to talk some sense into me.]]\\
'''Alfred:''' Haven't I told you to stop creeping up on people like that before? ''It's bloody rude!''
* Harvey asks Captain Essen if Fish is still mad at him and Jim.
* Harvey calling a toast right in the middle of the Mayor's debate with Jim.
* Harvey to Jim: "You're a monkey on a Racehorse." Despite not saying anything in response, it's clear Jim has no idea what that means.
** Jim's disbelieving that Harvey knows anything about women.
* Harvey to suspect: [[spoiler: "That means I can beat you like a bongo drum and Saint Jim here ''won't say a word!''"]]
** That whole scene, inverting the entire GoodCopBadCop routine where [[spoiler:Bullock's doing the beating but being nice about it, while St. Jim is standing there glaring and doing nothing, which is somehow worse.]]
* Extremely BlackComedy, but Oswald's inability to convince the mother of the guy he's kidnapped that his ransom demand is genuine, apparently because of the guy's CryingWolf already.
** Oswald's line about how he's willing to negotiate on the ransom as if he were selling an automobile.
* More BlackComedy. When [[spoiler: Selina scratches the guard's eyes out,]] he screams to one of the child kidnappers that he needs a Doctor. The woman completely deadpan, says the doctor is here and it doesn't look that bad, and then [[spoiler: ''shoots him in the face''.]]
** The poor guy doesn't even realize [[spoiler:he's hearing her clear the gun when it jams first.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x03: The Balloonman]]]]
* Selina is able to swipe Bullock's pen without him noticing.
* Gordon handcuffs Selina to a rail while he looks for the wallet she dropped in the sewer in the first episode. She picks the cuffs with the pen she stole from Bullock and then casually tosses them to him, topping it off by saying "Oh Detective! You're gonna need these".
* Harvey repeatedly pointing out that he's mostly on the Balloonman's side, while the man has a gun to his head.
* Harvey taking a lunch break in the middle of tracking down a suspect, which Gordon thinks is part of the process at first.
* The episode’s quota of BlackComedy is filled when one of the Balloonman’s victims flattens a little old lady who was walking her dog.
** Also the brief TV clip we see of the third victim being lifted up by balloon. He's a PedophilePriest who's wearing his full Cardinal's garb when he's attacked, so the sight of him hanging by his ankle from the balloon looks like something out of a Monty Python skit ("There's another Bishop on the landing!").
* Jim goes for the actual suspect and takes him down in routine fashion, while [[CurbStompBattle Harvey is getting his ass handed to him by the suspect's companion in the background.]] Jim stops things right before Harvey gets a television smashed down on him. Harvey returns the favor with a quick right hook. It's the look on Gordon's face that sells it. Did we mention ''she's a woman?''
* Bruce shows Alfred a news article about the Balloonman. Alfred's only comment is to dryly note that there really are easier ways to kill someone.
* Oswald arriving back in Gotham, witnessing several crimes taking place in broad daylight - and getting fuzzy HomeSweetHome feelings because of this.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x04: Arkham]]]]
* A colleague of Gladwell's freaks out and seems to honestly think Gordon and Bullock are pulling their guns on her for stealing a box of paperclips.
* Fish Mooney’s reaction to the first singer's attempt at ''"seduction"''
--> '''Fish''': At least you can sing.
* This exchange between Gordon and Bullock.
--> '''Gordon''': What do you think?
--> '''Bullock''': It's a complete waste of time.
--> '''Gordon''': It's a lead. Our only lead.
--> '''Bullock''': Says you.
--> '''Gordon''': Come on, there's no way you can be this lazy.
--> '''Bullock''': Have you ever considered that I might be a better detective than you?
--> '''Gordon''': ''(smiling sarcastically}'' Yeah, I considered it.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x05: Viper]]]]
* The note in the Guitar Player's guitar case at the start: [[BrutalHonesty "Why Lie? I Need Money For Drugs."]]
** And a guy actually puts some money in the guitar case.
*** And then a guy actually puts some ''drugs'' in the guitar case... except that turns out to [[PsychoSerum not be so funny after]].
* After Gordon drags him to a crime scene on hearing an alarm, Harvey Bullock only has one question: Did anyone die? On being told no, he concludes, "Well, we're homicide, and on lunch break," and turns to walk away.
* The episode gets its BlackComedy streak going early with [[spoiler:the guitar player's death via ATM, in addition to his bones crumbling to dust.]] And that's just the start. BloodyHilarious, indeed.
** And a bit earlier, when Gordon and Bullock first learn about the super strength, the JumpCut to the guitar player with the ATM on his back, running down the street like a mad bull.
* Oswald Cobblepot's hilarious reaction when he's asked if he doesn't like the name Penguin.
* Bullock wondered if there was dark and moral problems when he asked the professor on the suspect since he and Jim were told that he made shampoos for a living.
* Bullock asking a murderous professor "What's altruism?" To specify, he has no idea what the word means and is convinced it's a vital part of their case.
** Even funnier? Gordon's exasperated explanation of the word triggers a EurekaMoment about where the killer will target next. So it ''was'' a vital part of the case.
* Speaking of BlackComedy: "Fascinating!"
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x06: Spirit of the Goat]]]]
* Any time Oswald enters Snark Mode.
-->: '''Oswald''': Hi Ma, I'm alive.
** "THERE WAS NO HUSSY!!!"
* Oswald splashing in the bathtub.
* Bullock's failed [[CrossesTheLineTwice joke]] about the word "therapist".
* Bullock telling a brainwashed man to heel after being attacked by surprise.
* Gordon is surprised to learn that Bullock had white knight tendencies when he was partnered with Dix.
-->'''Gordon:''' ...we're talking about Bullock here?\\
'''Dix:''' We're talking about Bullock here.\\
'''Gordon:''' ''Harvey'' Bullock?\\
'''Dix:''' ''[mouthing]'' Harvey Bullock, yeah.
* Nygma "helping" the police archivist by reorganizing everything "laterally," with accompanying hand-motions whenever he says the word.
* As Gordon is being arrested for killing Cobblepot, shouting that he didn't do it, Bullock leaps in to agree, not getting at all that Gordon is admitting to Bullock himself that he ''really'' didn't do it. It takes Oswald himself strolling into the building for Bullock to get it, at which he instantly starts trying to beat Gordon up. The scene basically reads as:
-->: '''Gordon:''' I didn't kill Cobblepot!
-->: '''Bullock:''' That's right, he didn't kill him! ''(Penguin walks in)'' ...YOU DIDN'T KILL HIM?!
* Bullock has been arranging for Dix to get a steady supply of dirty magazines, much to his nurse's disapproval.
* When arresting the therapist, Bullock says she's under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder, coercion and "a few other things we'll probably have to name after you."
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x07: Penguin's Umbrella]]]]
* A completely plastered Bullock brings a prostitute - "Duchess"?! - to Gordon's apartment on his trip to join Gordon's fight against the city's corruption, and insists on sleeping with the woman first. Gordon thinks he's joking at first, then gets a look of pure horror when the two actually head into his bedroom.
** No, seriously, her name's Duchess?!
*** Wait, they used Barbara's bed?!?!
** Furthermore, when Gordon explains his grand plan for taking down Falcone, Bullock has one hell of a retort:
---> '''Bullock''': What, did you sit down with a panel of chimpanzees and a bucket of crack and come up with that one?
** Apparently Bullock has a fetish for playing Marco Polo. Do not get into a pool with him.
* During the face-down at Falcone's mansion, once Falcone has turned the tables and is openly talking about killing Gordon, the corrupt mayor can't get out of the room fast enough.
** Bullock, in the middle of Falcone's monologuing, interrupts with a request for a last drink or a meal.
* Zsasz's angry expression when he realizes Falcone is letting Gordon, Barbara and Bullock go unharmed. Like a spoiled child finding out a parent isn't going to let him enjoy adding to his body count.
** The fact that Zsasz's ringtone is ''Funkytown''.
** Almost every bit of dialogue out of Zsasz's mouth, due to the hilariously deranged expressions he makes. Particularly the way he says, "PLEASE," when ordering the police to leave the precinct.
* Oswald having to explain to Maroni what sound a goose makes.
-->'''Oswald''': Why do they want me back so badly?
-->'''Maroni''': I know why. Because they know I got a stone money maker here! A golden goose! They know it, and they don't want us to have him! Right, Penguin?
-->'''Oswald''': Honk honk!
-->'''Maroni''': ...What?
-->'''Oswald''': "Honk honk". It's what geese say.
-->'''Maroni''': R-right, right, honk honk!
* Oswald's 'sincere apology' to Fish Mooney. [[spoiler: Even better, the apology is actually sincere! He truly doesn't mean disrespect to Falcone! He's just taking the time to wind Fish up!]]
* The mayor confused on Gordon serving an arrest warrant on him with the mayor asking if he's nuts. Bullock tells him that it depends on the perspective.
* Gordon explains to Captain Essen that he plans to just go to just flat out arrest the mayor and Falcone. Essen's response is to ask him if he's insane. Gordon's reply?
--> '''Gordon''': No. ''[[{{Beat}} (Pauses, thinking)]]'' Well, maybe a little. Feels good!
** Just... Just ''look'' at Gordon's face when he says "Feels good!" He looks like he's starting the slow descent into madness.
* Mooney's goon Butch stops a shipment of Maroni's guns, and tells the drivers that they're not letting any of Maroni's trucks through until he hands over Cobblepot. The goon then adds that he's going to have to rough up the drivers, and asks if they'd like to be beaten up or shot.
-->'''Driver''': Why do we have to be roughed up?
-->'''Butch''': So Maroni knows we're serious.
-->'''Driver''': We'll tell him, he'll know you're serious.
-->'''Butch''': ''[frustrated]'' You know what? ''[shoots the drivers in the legs, then walks off looking annoyed]''
** How that scene even happened: Butch ''politely'' kidnapped and tied a [[RefugeInAudacity troop of nuns]] across a bridge underpass to stop the truck. BlackComedy up the wazoo with that stunt.
* Maroni orders Oswald to come to the table he is sitting at with Mooney, remarking that he doesn't have to be afraid, she won't bite him - and then asks Mooney if this is indeed true. She answers with cold silence, as if seriously considering it.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x08: Masks]]]]
* The [[BlackComedy entire premise]] of turning dog-eat-dog corporate finance [[RefugeInAudacity into a fight club]].
* Mama Cobblepot's homemade rat traps built like dollhouses. So cozy-looking rats might intentionally go in just to use the sofa at least once.
* Gordon's trapped in the office space used for the fight clubs. [[spoiler:Black Mask]] tells the three would-be employees that the rules had changed for this fight: the one to kill war-hero cop Gordon gets the job. Just as Gordon tells the three that they could still walk away from this, [[spoiler:Black Mask]] casually adds, "Oh and a million dollar signing bonus." At which point Gordon has a fight on his hands.
** [[spoiler:Part of what makes the whole thing funny is Gordon's response to the signing bonus announcement: "[[OhCrap Aw, crap...]]"]]
** [[spoiler:By dint of Gordon beating all three, as well as BadBoss Black Mask, doesn't he get that signing bonus...?]]
*** [[spoiler:Since Gordon was not a prospective employee, he probably wasn't eligible.]]
* Bullock, realizing Gordon's done gone run off and got captured again, tries to get the GCPD to get off their asses to help find Gordon. Considering what happened previous episode, Bullock's not getting any takers. So it's up to him to give a RousingSpeech where he admits Gordon's an "asshat" but that he's still a cop, and the Gotham cops ought to help their own. Becomes a Heartwarming moment when the cops - starting with Essen, who apologized earlier to Gordon for her cowardice - relent and help out.
* Bruce failing to convince Alfred to home-school him.
* What does Bruce wanna do after beating up the school bully Tommy Elliott? ORDER A PIZZA!
* At one point in the episode, a pair of policemen see fur coats, a purse and other objects flying out of a storm drain. Curious, they walk over to investigate and out pops Selina Kyle. Her reaction to being caught like this is priceless.
-->'''Selina:''' Hi. [''"What-can-you-do?" look''] A girl's gotta shop.
* Gordon is on edge after all the other cops turned their backs on him last week, and is unusually threatening with a suspect. Bullock adds "I'd give you a good cop routine, but it's not in my playbook."
* Nygma is doing a forensic examination of a body. While recording, having noted the time, date and name of the victim, he pauses and adds in the exact same tone that he had part of a muffin earlier and is saving the rest for later.
** "What do a dead man, a cruise ship and an emu have in common? (holds mike to the dead guy) That's right. [[AntiHumor Nothing.]]"
** What really sells this scene is at the end, when it's revealed that Nygma's not actually allowed to examine the bodies and that he makes a habit of doing this behind the medical examiner's back.
** Later on, we have Harvey Bullock [[RunningGagged walking out on one of Ed's riddles.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x9: Harvey Dent]]]]
* Selina, watching Bruce test himself underwater: "You are the weirdest kid I know!" Oh, Selina, just you wait...
** The hint to Bruce's future [[CrazyPrepared contingency planning]].
--> '''Selina:''' What, so if someone attacks you with a diving board, you'll be ready?
--> '''Bruce:''' Yes.
--> '''Selina:''' *Incredulous look.*
* The ringtone on the hidden bomb? ''The Final Countdown''. Gotham's criminals may be a superstitious and cowardly lot, but they have a sadistic silly streak as well.
* Bruce's reaction when Selina asks him if he's ever kissed a girl, and asks him if he wants to. He's a stuttering wreck for about ten seconds before Alfred announces it's time for his studies. They way Bruce says "Thank you Alfred" sounds like he's thanking him for getting him out of that awkward situation.
* There's something profoundly hilarious about the fact that the first ever showdown between Batman and Catwoman is [[spoiler: a food fight in his living room.]]
* When Selina, who is staying at Wayne manor, mentions that she's hungry:
-->'''Bruce''': There's plenty of food in the kitchen, and Alfred will be happy to make you-
-->'''Afred''': No, he won't be, will he, because it's not a bloody hotel.
* Lovecraft's completely befuddled face when Harvey Dent reacts to his threat by getting into full scary mode and ''threatens him back''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x10: Lovecraft]]]]
* Selina and Bruce's conversation at the beginning of the episode:
--> '''Selina:''' You want to kiss me?
--> '''Bruce:''' No, thank you.
--> '''Selina:''' No?
--> '''Bruce:''' I would like to, but I can't help feeling you have an ulterior motive. I don't imagine you consider me a suitable romantic partner, so why would you want to kiss me? I don't know.
--> '''Selina:''' [[DeadpanSnarker You think too much, kid]]. I'm just trying to be nice.
--> '''Bruce:''' No offense, you don't strike me as a nice person.
--> '''Selina:''' What do you mean? I'm nice.
--> '''Bruce:''' I don't mean you're not a good person, but you're not nice. You don't care much for other people.
--> '''Selina:''' [[IResembleThatRemark Screw you, orphan]].
* After [[spoiler:his first try at roof-hopping and barely managing to not go splat]], Bruce, very politely, asks Selina to stop running because he's out of breath.
* Alfred, having found Bruce alive at the flea market warehouse, does his best StiffUpperLip response over his desperation to find the boy, saying he can't let Bruce die because nobody else employs butlers anymore in this day and age.
* Just the idea of Bullock teaming up with Alfred during the hunt for Bruce and Selina...
** And how Alfred plays Good Cop during a perp sweat [[spoiler:by simply bribing him with money.]]
** Alfred laying down an insult on Butch, mocking his name [[spoiler:before laying the smackdown on the mobster.]]
* Just as a gun fight goes down: "Am I the only person in this city [[IronicEcho who waits for back-up?]]"
* In a way, this episode marks Bruce [[DatingCatwoman and Selina's]] [[HilarityEnsues first date]] [[MythologyGag on the town]].
* After Selina pulls Bruce away from Ivy:
-->'''Bruce:''' She's just a little girl. Why are you so scared of her?
-->'''Selina:''' Because she's scary! Don't look back!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x11: Rogues' Gallery]]]]
* When Cobblepot is in the holding cell at the GCPD, Bullock [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf4Tqf7RLe0 compares him to a "bonsai tree"]]. Another in the holding cell just asks, "What's a bonsai tree?" With some added laughs to how Cobblepot HeadDesk after hearing that comment against the bars of his cell.
** Just the smooth, sarcastic way Bullock mocks having Pengy in that jail cell.
* Maroni calls a GCPD detective a "mook" for not listening to his request to free Penguin from his cell.
* Just having Bullock in this episode, period. The second he shows up at Arkham on Gordon's phone call for help, almost gleeful in teaming up with Jim one more time.
* Selina breaks into Barbara's (and Jim's) abandoned apartment in order to find Ivy a warm bed and meal. "I'm sure they're gone. There's something smells bad."
** And Ivy later answers the phone. Turns out it's Barbara having been run off by Montoya seeing if Jim's back. Ivy pretends over the phone to be a "friend of Jim's" and getting poor Barbara jealous enough to hang up in a rage.
** Ivy asks Cat to make her something vegan?! TRAITOR...
*** Oddly, Ivy's always been a vegan, as little sense as it makes. Just watch ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''.
* The [[TerribleIntervieweesMontage interrogation montage of the Arkham inmates]] has some funny moments, including...
** When asked if he stole the keys, the inmate just breaks out crying.
** Another inmate just sits there with a messed up look on his face, laughing.
** Another simply sits there petting a teddy bear, before lunging forward and trying to strangle Gordon.
** When told an inmate was a nice boy: "It says here you killed your family with an axe!" Inmate replies "I said 'Sorry'!"
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x12: What The Little Bird Told Him]]]]
* Bullock making a deadpan introduction on "The Electrocutioner".
* After Gordon and Bullock find out who The Electrocutioner is after, the show immediately cuts to Maroni at lunch, as he is in the middle of telling all of his goons about a time [[EyeScream he viciously ripped someone's eye out.]] laughing and going on about it as if it were delightfully hilarious. Penguin and the rest all laugh along with him, of course.
* Cobblepot's bad excuse for leaving Maroni to meet with Falcone regarding his mother's heart condition, saying things like "it's her... valves."
* Cobblepot getting electrocuted and blasted across Maroni's restaurant. It happens to him ''again'' later on at the police staton. Again, right as he was about to leave. By the end of the episode, he looks banged up bad enough that you'd be mistaken for forgetting that this was his triumphant moment over Fish.
** The way he springs to life on the stretcher behind Maroni and very loudly states that he has business with Don Falcone.
** [[BlatantLies His weepy, over the top assurance to Maroni that he's not involved with Falcone.]]
--->'''Cobblepot''': I swear on my dying mother's soul, may god strike her down with horrible torments if I am lying!
* The bomb that blasted Maroni and his men. You'd expect some people to die from it, but instead everyone walks out singed and frazzled. It seemed like it was more of a childish prank than an attempt on Maroni's life.
* When taking refuge at the GCPD precinct, Maroni casually makes himself at home by taking someone's chair, plopping Penguin's unconscious body onto a random desk, and ordering a uniformed female cop to get him a coffee.
* Nygma's continued failed attempts at making a good impression on his crush, Ms. Kringle.
-->'''Ms. Kringle''': You left this on my desk.
-->'''Nygma''': It's a riddle.
-->'''Ms. Kringle''': It's a cupcake with a live bullet sticking out of it.
-->'''Nygma''': ... It's a riddle.
-->'''Ms. Kringle''': It's menacing and weird and inedible!
** Though his explanation of the riddle ultimately doesn't make much sense, this is still a funny way of illustrating how Nygma's mind works.
* The Electrocutioner pointing out Maroni to his henchman, who lies unconscious with Cobblepot sprawled on top of him.
-->'''The Electrocutioner''': He's over there, beneath the funny looking fellow.
* It's pretty funny how Falcone shows up to the meet with Fish wearing Liza's little purple flower on his lapel. It turns into a bit of NightmareFuel quickly, but it's still an unusually funny sight.
* [[MommasBoy Falcone raging at Fish for using the affection he had for his late mother against him, referring to her as "My sainted mother!"]]
* Bullock deflating Gordon's attempt to declare the gloves are off in his fight against the city's corruption, as he can only ask over and over if Gordon actually thought he was being subtle before.
-->'''Gordon:''' I'm done being careful.\\
'''Bullock:''' You think you've been careful so far?\\
'''Gordon:''' I'm taking them all down.\\
'''Bullock:''' You think you've been careful so far.\\
'''Gordon:''' The mayor, Falcone, and every dirty cop I know about.\\
'''Bullock:''' You think. You've been careful. So far.
* The priceless look on the Electrocutioner's face when [[spoiler:Gordon takes him down with a cup of water.]]
* Bullock asks if Gordon got "nasty pictures" of him and Loeb from the press.
* After Gordon mouths off to Loeb:
-->'''Loeb:''' Follow me.\\
'''Bullock:''' Real nice knowing you.\\
'''Loeb:''' Bring your friend, Bullock.\\
'''Bullock:''' I hate you. I hate you.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x13: Welcome Back, Jim Gordon]]]]
* Drunk Penguin. [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs That is all.]]
* The encounter between Bruce and Ivy.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x14: The Fearsome Dr. Crane]]]]
* When Maroni tries to give Penguin a SecretTestOfCharacter, he obviously leaves his gun in an obvious bag, and, of course, Penguin grabs it as soon as Maroni leaves the room. Maroni tells him [[SincerityMode that the gun is loaded with blanks.]] [[WhatAnIdiot Penguin tries to shoot him.]]
* Even when Penguin is [[spoiler:about to die via car crusher]], he ''still'' tries to save his skin by calling Maroni's cell. At this point, Maroni is beyond fed up with the little bird's crap. The whole interaction makes it all the funnier. When Maroni is watching the car crusher, he hears his phone ringing and looks at his phone to see it is Oswald and sees him on the phone in the compacting car.
--> '''Maroni''': (Chuckling) You have got to be kidding me.
** Then Maroni's reaction when Penguin ''gets away''.
* When Edward gets caught performing an unauthorized autopsy on a corpse (again) he does a FacePalm with his blood-stained glove.
* Bullock is terrified of the thought of a single Jim Gordon, given what a pain he's been while actually getting laid.
* The sheer surrealness of [[spoiler: Penguin being rescued by a church choir.]] His pouty expression when getting on the bus is priceless.
* Crane's murders fill this episode's quote of BlackComedy:
** The first victim is hung by being thrown down of the roof of a skyscraper. The hanged body is visible can be seen from a room in the building, only the colf in it is too busy cleaning and singing to look out.
** The second victim is seen exiting home, and panicking at the sight of Crane ''holding a small pig in his arms and petting it''. Later, Jim and Bullock (who just had the discussion about Jim being a pain while actually getting laid) barge on Crane's accomplice about to kill him... And after shooting him they notice he's surrounded by pigs, and can only say "What the hell?".
* Ed getting back at the medical examiner for getting him suspended by doing something with his closet. What, exactly? Well, when he opens it, the examiner gets hit by ''the mountain of human arms and legs inside it''. And then he's seen with some in his arms by other cops.
-->"This is NotWhatItLooksLike."
** One of the cops later goes to Essen with one of the arms.
-->"Not now Joe. ''*{{Beat}}*'' Wait. Tell me that's not what it looks like."
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x15: The Scarecrow]]]]
* Don Falcone metaphorically telling the Penguin that he needs to sort out his priorities while Penguin assumes he's ignoring the prospect of [[spoiler:Maroni trying to whack him]].
* When Gordon and Bullock discuss the recent murder with Edward Nygma, Bullock takes one of Nygma's chemicals and thoughtlessly attempts to drink it. Edward stops him ''just'' in time.
** Nygma cheerful giddiness in seeing the lovely Leslie Thompkins coming in as the new Medical Examiner, chatting up how "pretty" she is right in front of a flustered - and potentially jealous - Gordon. He also notes that she's much nicer than the former M.E. and lets him use one of the rooms to examine bodies.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnqZGg-uyv8 Oswald Cobblepot meets Edward Nygma]].
* The lone punker slamdancing on his own in front of the rock band at Penguin's grand re-opening of Fish's old club.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x16 The Blind Fortune Teller]]]]
* Barbara goes back to her apartment looking for Jim and and instead finds Selina and Ivy squatting there. After they tell her that Jim has moved out some time ago, Barbara just sits down on the couch and starts chatting with them as if it is perfectly reasonable for the girls to be there.
* Barbara taking fashion advice - trying to win Gordon's attention back - from a couple of street urchins squatting in her apartment.
** Granted, the street urchins are femme-fatales-in-the-making Ivy and Selina. But what does it say about Barbara when pre-teens are more sensible about dating tips than her, a grown woman?
** And she doesn't [[FailedASpotCheck seem to notice that one of them has roughly the same voice]] that she got so upset about a few episodes ago.[[note]] Voices do sound different IRL than they do over the telephone, and Ivy did seem to be putting on a deeper voice than her usual one when trolling Barbara, so it's possible she really wouldn't make the connection. [[/note]]
* Gordon using a snake to sniff out the whereabouts of the circus' missing snake handler. Which kind of borders on genius considering snakes ''do'' have a good sense of smell and the snake would be particular in finding its owner. Still, Gordon has to explain this one to Essen - and the audience, who were all sitting there going WTF?
* Gordon's exasperated expression when the circus he's taken Leslie to for a date breaks down into a riot/fight between the clowns and the acrobats. Why yes, another night arresting more clowns...
* The MythologyGag of meeting Dick Grayson's parents.
** And the FeudingFamilies situation between the two making it so much a ShoutOut to Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet. Over a horse? Even Bullock can't take it seriously.
*** A dispute over a horse-involved incident that occurred ''three generations ago'' (50 to 75 years).
* Bullock uses his keen detective skills to figure out Gordon finally got laid.
* Bullock's reaction upon entering the police station and seeing all the circus people who were brought in for questioning.
* While holding her speech in front of the other prisoners, Fish uses one of them as a pedestal.
* Despite Leslie being the one who invited Jim to dinner, she's the one still mulling over Cicero's words. Until she figures them out, turning them into a lead. A location at the bottom of a bridge. And then she insists on kicking the investigation along by going there. Just after sundown. ''In the middle of dinner''. Jim's expression just screams [[DeathGlare "WOMAN..."]]
** Bonus points to the producers for turning the normally [[MsFanservice pants-messing]] MorenaBaccarin into the most hilariously {{adorkable}} thing EVER.
* When Leslie called out Jim hypocrisy for wanting a woman who share his actions yet (in her words) he wants her to "stay home and bake cookies". Jim said that's not really true...He would want her to stay home to bake any kind of pie.

* The initial wearer of the hood emceeing the robbery, chattering madly. Gains even more hilarity to comic book fans who know the [[ComicBook/TheJoker identity of the original Red Hood]].
** The elderly bank guard firing practically point-blank range and missing the Red Hood. Lampshaded immediately by Gordon and Bullock, who are told that the guard wasn't wearing his prescription glasses.
** Even before the robbery, as the gang stands outside bickering over whether they should have color-coordinated with the guy bringing the red hood.
* The foolish one [[TooDumbToLive falling victim]] to KlingonPromotion after suggesting that the wearer of the hood should be the leader.
* Barbara returns the favor from the previous episode and tries to teach Selina how to use her appearance as a weapon. Selina asks how well that's worked for Barbara.
* Bullock's effective detective skills not only find the body of the first Red Hood, but the stash of beer in the same fridge.
** "[[RefugeInAudacity What? If I don't, Forensics will!]]" Anyways, he earned that beer.
** '''Gordon''' (takes Bullock's reading glasses to magnify something on the bank tape recording): "Do you see that?" '''Bullock''' (miffed): "No, [[CaptainObvious because you took my glasses]]."
* The cops find an eyewitness to the second robbery, who'll only agree to viewing a lineup if the department clears a bunch of parking fines that his wife nags him over. And after the lineup, complains about his ''mistress'' getting upset if he doesn't show up on time.
** Also, that suspect lineup? Not exactly ''Film/TheUsualSuspects'', was it?
* The name of the gang leader - and the second Red Hood - is [[Franchise/GIJoe Destro]]?
* How does Butch procure liquor for the Penguin's tavern? [[ImpersonatingAnOfficer An IPO caper]] that fools even the Penguin!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x18 Everyone Has A Cobblepot]]]]
* A moment of BlackComedy that doubles as a MythologyGag for ''The Dark Knight''. Cobblepot has the elderly couple that were guarding [[spoiler:Loeb's daughter]] in his club, and tells them he knows Falcone will have them killed for failing him, but fortunately for them , Cobblepot has ''one'' train ticket to Arizona. The husband refuses since they've been married 30 years, but the wife turns on him and strangles him with a table cloth. She then turns around and finds Cobblepot pointing a shotgun at her. There's no train, he just needed their help; [[MagnificentBastard he only has one shell left]]. *bang*
** Just the gleeful way Cobblepot watches the ensuing fight, enjoying the rare wine he just ordered as well.
* When Bullock says Loeb's farmhouse doesn't look like what he expected, Oswald asks if he was expecting a sign that said "Super secret blackmail horde." Bullock shot back saying the last time the three of them went for a car ride, Cobblepot was in the trunk (reference to the first episode) and liked that way better.
* And the uncomfortable polite chatter with the friendly elderly couple living at the farmhouse.
** With Bullock making snide comments about the noticeable thumping of ''some huge raccoon'' upstairs...
* When [[spoiler:Loeb's bird-obsessed crazy daughter]] spies Cobblepot for the first time: "He looks like a bird!" Considering what she ''does'' to birds, Cobblepot might want to reconsider his deal with Gordon to be alone with [[spoiler:Loeb's secret]] for five minutes...
* Gordon and Dent's [[OhCrap dawning realization]] of what's about to go down in the Chinese restaurant.
** There is something both ''terrifying'' AND ''funny'' about being chased by knife-wielding Chinese accountants.
* Nygma's sure the attraction between Ms. Kringle and Flass was not intellectual. Why?
-->"How could it be, with that gorilla?"
* Fish trying to discuss terms with the Dollmaker on being his assistant. He response with whether to have Salsa lessons arranged for the elderlies on a Tuesday. Hers? ....[[FlatNo "No."]]
** The Dollmaker appreciates her [[BrutalHonesty honesty]], but he likes Salsa- so he adds it anyway.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x19 Beasts of Prey]]]]
* Bullock's none too happy that Gordon's taking on extra cases, and confronts Edward Nygma with it. "Question: do you want to work more or work less?" Nygma responds with "Is this a riddle?" So you saw it, boys and girls: Bullock out-Riddled the Riddler.
** "Let me say it in Spanish: No!" A delightful subversion of ElSpanishO.
* Some BlackComedy when the Penguin interrogates the guitar player who apparently seduced the daughter of a bar owner they've been trying to buy over. The {{Mook}} with Penguin suggests shooting the truth out of him. Penguin points out that as a guitar player, the loss of his fingers would hurt more. [[YourAnswerToEverything The mook suggests shooting his fingers.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x20 Under the Knife]]]]
* Alfred's gleeful ShipperOnDeck attitude when Bruce tells him that Selina is gonna be his date of the charity ball.
** His description of Selina as a "healthy young girl with a penchant for wearing too much leather."
* The nonchalant way Selina tells Barbara that she's going to be Bruce's date at the Charity Ball.
** Followed by a delivery of fancy clothes and accesories for her to chose from for the Ball courtesy of Alfred. Selina is not thrilled at the prospect of having to wear high-heeled shoes. They hurt.
* As Bruce and Selina dance together at the ball, they begin to draw attention from the other partygoers.
-->'''Selina''': Why is everyone staring?
-->'''Bruce''': Well, I ''am'' Bruce Wayne.
* Edward Nygma researching and deducing stabbing patterns...by stabbing watermelons to a pulp.
-->'''Edward''' ''(pretending to talk into a speaker)'': Yum.
** This gag eventually becomes relevant when [[spoiler: [[ChekhovsGag Edward stabs Kris Kringle's boyfriend multiple times in the stomach, killing him]]]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x21 The Hammer or The Anvil]]]]
* Nygma's look of exasperation as he's trying to dispose of Dougherty's body and Ms. Kringle interrupts him (and discovers the body parts), as well as his explanation for them, is good BlackComedy.
* Bullock going undercover at the Foxglove sex club, and witnessing the "main attraction" onstage. [[TakeOurWordForIt The viewer doesn't get to see what it is]]--we only hear the sounds of a woman, a man, [[NoodleImplements a whip, a chainsaw, and]] [[BestialityIsDepraved a pig]]--but it's horrifying enough to make Bullock drop his cover immediately.
-->'''Bullock''': Oh hell no. [''voice cracking''] GCPD! Nobody move! [''points at the stage''] Especially you two!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x22 All Happy Families Are Alike]]]]
* Gordon stopping Penguin ''right'' when he's about to kill Falcone.
-->'''Penguin''' ''[frustrated]'': ...Walk away!
-->'''Gordon''': Shut up. You're both under arrest for attempted murder.
* When he's tied up at the mercy of Fish Mooney, Gordon tries to win over Selina (who's joined up with Fish) by giving her a ''very'' [[TheUnSmile insincere smile]]. It does not work.
** Fish gives a rundown of how she's going to kill Falcone, Oswald, Gordon, and Bullock; she tells Gordon she'll keep it simple for him, but ''lets Harvey live!''
---> '''Fish:''' And you? We're cool.
* The shocked look on Oswald's face when he sees Fish alive when they arrives at the old warehouse where Falcone's gang used to resides is ''priceless'', considering he's been relishing in the belief that she was gone.
* In the middle of [[spoiler:Barbara going full AxCrazy on Leslie]], we get a pretty obvious ShoutOut to ''Film/TheShining'' [[spoiler:as Babs batters down the bathroom door to get at Les]]. Bordering more on BlackComedy than pure {{Narm}}.
** The ''Shining'' connection becomes even funnier when you consider a [[Film/{{Batman}} certain other]] [[ComicBook/TheJoker lunatic]] whom Creator/JackNicholson has played.
* The aftermath of the fight when Gordon, Bullock, and Falcone walk on Les [[spoiler: banging Barbara's head on the floor and when Les say Barbs' gone crazy.]] Harvey shouts out that he's called it.
[[/folder]]

!!Season 2

[[folder: [[AC: 2x01 Damned If You Do]]]]
* Jerome starts hitting on Barbara and asks her what she's in Arkham for. "Killing my parents." "Me too!" While it's true, the way Jerome says it sounds like a guy lying to try and get a girl to talk to him.
* Sionis is in the middle of a story when Zaardon makes his IncomingHam entrance, and barely spares him a glance before continuing.
** Just how blase everyone is about him. When Gordon's booking him:
--->'''Zaardon''': Zaardon will unleash hell upon you all!\\
'''Gordon''': ''[bored as he writes him up]'' That spelled how it sounds?\\
'''Zaardon''': ''[calmly]'' Two [=As=].
* Zsasz repeatedly interrupting Oswald to ask if he can just kill Loeb now, sounding like a kid asking if school's over yet.
-->'''Zsasz''': Do I kill him now?
-->'''Penguin''': [[SarcasmMode No, make him a nice cheese toast]]. ''Yes, kill him now please!''
** Zsasz and Penguin's entire schtick as they're intimidating Loeb. ThoseTwoBadGuys have their psychotic routine practically down to a science!
* And the payoff: a GilliganCut to a choir beautifully singing 'goodbye' to Loeb, while Loeb is sitting there with a shell-shocked expression.
* Bruce's emotional reading of his father's letter is interrupted by his father's pride at his figuring out the code to the secret room was his own name, when Bruce actually resorted to blowing the door up. The sheepish look Alfred gives when Bruce reads that line sells it.
* This gem during the confrontation between Edward and [[SplitPersonality his reflection]].
-->'''Edward''': Stop doing that!
-->'''Edward's Reflection''': What?
-->'''Edward''': ''That!'' Copying me!
-->'''Edward's Reflection''': Dude, it's a mirror. That's how they work.
* In Arkham, Barbara is wearing a [[InstitutionalApparel black and white striped]] prison ''skirt''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 2x02 Knock, Knock]]]]
* While the editor of the ''Gotham Gazette'' is ranting about wanting real news on the front page, three bodies are falling to their death by the window right behind him.
* Theo tries to get Aaron to try out the lines he's running with the Maniax, who's eating away. He decides to not bother with him.
* Samurai sword vs chainsaw. Too bad that little bickerfest was cut short.
* Galavan recoiling out of the way when Jerome takes his turn in the RussianRoulette so that he doesn't also get hit by the bullet.
* Tabitha and Barbara amusing themselves by whipping the mayor, and then Tabitha whipping him a final time to make sure he isn't dead.
* Alfred's obvious happiness over being reunited with Bruce after their mutual JerkassRealization has a bucket of cold water thrown on it when Bruce informs Alfred he has to repair the computer.
-->'''Alfred''': Fix it? How on Earth am I going to do that?
-->'''Bruce''': That's not my problem. I'm not the one who broke it.
* Alfred's story about trust told to Lucius Fox gets derailed when Lucius asks what a "kipper" is.
* This, from the opening:
--> '''Arnold''': What should we do with the, uh, spare?
--> ''Jerome ponders the bodies for a moment with a hilariously thoughtful expression, then has a lightbulb moment.''
--> '''Jerome''': Ooh! I know! ''[spray-paints an exclamation mark on the hostage]'' Aaron, would you kindly? ''[genial smile]''
--> ''Aaron tosses the final hostage over the side; the bodies now read 'MANIAX!' ''
* This gem: the Maniax have doused the bus full of cheerleaders with gasoline, and Jerome is igniting the lighter... only it doesn't work. So he...climbs back on board the bus full of terrified hostages: "Hey, anyone got a lighter?"
** He also casually comments how embarrassing it is.
** And during the ensuing fire fight, Jerome eventually runs out of bullets, then tosses the gun aside as if to say "Ah, screw it."
* When Gordon is fighting Aaron in the alley, he tries to hit him with a pipe. Aaron pretty much no-sells it - "Ow." - before [[CurbStompBattle beating the crap out of Gordon]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 2x03 The Last Laugh]]]]
* When Jim and Lee share a passionate kiss, in comes Harvey Bullock...
-->'''Harvey''': Not to interrupt your weirdly-timed make out session, but...
* An oblivious Alfred spending the fundraiser [[MythologyGag hitting on Lee]], and after he finally sees her kissing Gordon, Bruce insists he didn't know.
** Jim's utter ''WTH?'' face when he starts to realize what's going on, and Bruce's obvious exasperation during Alfred and Lee's polite, yet somewhat clumsy dialogue. Bonus points when you realize that this is basically Bruce meeting Selina all over again, but with Bruce and Alfred's roles completely reversed.
* Everyone mentioning "there's a magician" for the fundraiser, as if it's a highlight. It was... but not for the reason they expected. So much so that Alfred later says [[BlatantLies he always has hated magicians]].
* Oswald's frustration with the Maniax taking all the city's attention, and pondering putting on a crazy laugh himself.
* Jerome covering his eyes before shooting the hostage with the water gun: "Someone tell me if it turns out alright!" Then shooting the apple off the hostage's head with a real gun and demanding applause.
* After Jerome calls Gordon:
-->'''Jerome''': [''laughs maniacally into the phone for a few seconds, then hangs up''] I think that went well.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 2x04 Strike Force]]]]
* Penguin rebuffs the Galavans' request for his services:
-->'''Penguin:''' You need an assassin. This is Gotham, you can find them in the phone book. Under 'A'." [''saucy wink'']
* When Barnes want to talk with Gordon out of office, he calls at Lee's house. Why?
-->"Everyone knows you're banging the M.E."
* Butch tells two campaign workers that he has no idea why the Penguin is assassinating one of the mayoral candidates in her office. He later tells them [[AffablyEvil to think of their loved ones in a nice manner.]]
** And a bit of BlackComedy: just as Butch leaves the office, the last of a run of campaign signs for the candidate finishes on the printer.
* Alfred dropping on Bruce the first part of his training: coming back from school to Wayne Manor on his own. Six and a half miles.
-->'''Bruce:''' "Wait, you... you expect me to-to walk?"
-->'''Alfred:''' "[[DistinctionWithoutADifference No, master Bruce. I expect you to run.]]"
-->[''Alfred jumps in the car and leaves a bemused Bruce with a tracksuit and running shoes in his hands'']
* Edward practicing his attempt at asking Ms. Kringle on a date. His partner? ''A skeleton that appears to be wearing sunglasses''.
* Yes, it takes place before a whole lot of violence, but Zsasz modeling an election pin makes for a pretty funny sight.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 2x05 Scarification]]]]
* Barnes' reaction when he his raiding party is attacked with a rocket launcher and Harvey's deadpan commentary on it.
-->'''Barnes:''' A damn rocket launcher?
-->'''Harvey:''' Welcome to Gotham.
* The goons doing the money counting are in their underwear. After they're arrested, Garrett tells Barnes that they're asking for their pants back. Barnes wryly notes that the Miranda Rights don't mention anything about pants. Then he thinks a moment and says whoever can tell him where the hell they got the rocket launcher gets his pants back. A moment later, after Gordon and Bullock tell him about The Merc...
-->'''Barnes''': Belay that order. Nobody's getting pants.
* "The Merc", a business that is basically a [=CostCo=] for criminals where you can find anything from explosives to rocket launchers to acid. Only in Gotham.
** With a ''loudspeaker'' offering freaking ''two-for-one deals'', no less!
* A great piece of BlackComedy, right after Joe Pike [[spoiler:blows up into a million pieces when Gordon's bullet hits the brick of C4 in his pants]] Barnes gives Jim's gun the weirdest look:
-->'''Barnes:''' What ''the hell'' are you packing?
* Another piece of BlackComedy -- when one of Penguin's {{Mooks}} informs him that the cops have shut down his counting house, Butch gets an OhCrap look on his face and dodges out of the way, right before Penguin [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown goes to town]] on the poor guy with a fire poker. And then has an EurekaMoment, running off shouting to Butch that he knows how to deal with Theo.
* Nygma approaches Leslie and Gordon about doing a double-date with him and Ms. Kringle. They simultaneously say yes and no, respectively, and Leslie invites them to fondue at her place. Gordon seems more worried about the prospect of the awkward evening than, say, the mob bosses and armed weirdos he faces every day.
-->'''Gordon''': It's our place, we can't leave. We'll be ''trapped''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 2x06 By Fire]]]]
* Galavan's response to Butch's story.
-->'''Butch''': There was a lot of blood. A lot. And he he tried to take another swing and he slipped and fell, and so I just ran. I ran and I ran and then the next thing I knew, I woke up in the hospital.
-->'''Galavan''': Huh.
* Tabitha and Barbara brainstorm attachments to put on the end of Butch's stump, like a mini-chainsaw. They settle on a ''mallet-hand''. When he reports back to Penguin, Cobblepot starts to ask about it and Butch just exasperatedly declares he doesn't want to go into it.
* Alfred distracting Bruce by bringing up a dinner date with Silver before landing a sucker punch on him.
-->'''Alfred:''' Not ready.
* Harvey appealing to the fact that they're both gingers when questioning Ivy.
* The way Galavan calls for Tabitha after figuring out Butch and Penguin's ruse. It's like someone calling for their pet cat.
* For some nice BlackComedy, there's a very tense scene when the detectives are investigating Bridgit Pike's appartment after she [[spoiler: burns her abusive brothers alive.]] Gordon and Bullock are sneaking through the creepy abandoned appartment, with the lack of any people there making it [[NothingIsScarier massively suspenseful and creepy]], up until they discover the [[KillItWithFire scorched]] [[BodyHorror bodies]] of [[spoiler: Bridgit's brothers]] lying on the floor. Bullock steps closer, and [[spoiler: [[NotQuiteDead the nearest one]] [[JumpScare suddenly grabs his leg.]] ]] How does Bullock respond to this? [[spoiler: He completely ''freaks out'' and starts [[ComedicSociopathy kicking the man]] [[CrossesTheLineTwice until he]] '''[[CrossesTheLineTwice dies.]]''' ]]
* Bullock's line afterwards just seals the deal when Gordon [[WhatTheHellHero calls him out about it]].
--> '''Bullock:''' Oh, I'm sure it was my kicks that did it, not the fact that he was ''fried like a taquito!''
* Gordon comes back to find Lee being held at gunpoint by Selina, which they proceed to treat pretty much like a pushy workplace colleague dropping by. There are also ''milk and cookies'' on the table, implying that at some point in the preceding sequence of events Lee made her a snack. One wonders if this was before or after the shotgun came out, either seems possible.
--> '''Gordon:''' Sorry about this, Lee.
--> '''Lee:''' Oh, hey, no problem.
* A guy getting interrogated by Gordon says that female firebugs are "mad rare...like a unicorn or somethin'!"
* Crosses over into Heartwarming: when Bridget asks Selina why she's helping her, Selina responds, "Maybe because you remind me of me... if I was a doofus." Both their smiles are what sell it.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x07 Mommy's Little Monster]]]]
* This exchange:
-->'''Bullock''': I say we wait and see if someone can walk us inside. Try and keep things civil. ''(notices Gordon not paying attention)'' Did I tell you I was thinking about getting a cat?
-->'''Gordon''': ... [[FlatWhat What]]?
-->'''Bullock''': Hey! How are you? Why don't you get your head in the game here?
* When Gordon and Bullock get into a fire fight with Zsasz and his [[{{Mook}} Mooks]] after the latter demands that they leave, they manage to retaliate with ''[[AwesomeMoments machine guns]]''. Zsasz's response is just priceless.
-->'''Zsasz''': ... I'll take that as a "no"!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x08 Tonight's the Night]]]]
* Barbara's nightmare at the start turns into this when a bird flies out of her mouth.
** Just the fact that ''someone'' decided that Penguin should have a pencil moustache, making him look like Creator/JohnWaters.
* Nygma's cheerful nonchalance at disposing of the hunter who stumbled across his burial of Miss Kringle.
--> If I can't make the hole bigger, then I'll make you smaller.
** Then he discovers that someone stole his lunch while he was disposing of the hunter and notes that for the middle of nowhere, this spot of forest seems to see a remarkable amount of foot traffic.
* Lee's bright idea to stop Barbara's attack: ask about Barbara's wedding dress. The best part: ''it works''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x09 A Bitter Pill to Swallow]]]]
* Early in the episode, Bruce is talking with Silver at his home and is trying to con the name of the Wayne Killer out of her, and then:
-->'''Alfred:''' "Right, Master Bruce! On your feet."
-->''*Alfred enters wearing an apron and with two rakes in his hands*''
-->'''Alfred:''' "Bought a lovely couple of rakes from the ironmonger's. I suggest we get outside and get-"
-->[''[[DoubleTake Alfred notices Silver]], [[{{Beat}} stops for a moment]], and hounds her out.'']
* As the first assassin is trying to garrotte Jim in the elevator, the door calmly opens, then closes, as their fight continues.
* Penguin putting up with Edward.
-->'''Penguin''': If you're planning on killing me, can you get on with it? At this point, it would come as a welcome relief.
* Edward and Penguin singing with each other over Chinese food. Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like.
** The scene is just bizarre and maybe a little horrifying, since they're celebrating that Edward was able to convince Penguin that he really does have what it takes to ''start murdering people again.''
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x10 The Son Of Gotham]]]]
* Nygma and Penguin's OddCouple relationship.
* Bruce's [[{{Heartwarming/Gotham}} heartwarming]] reveal that the sweet talking words he used on Silver were actually about Selina is followed up with Selina being struck speechless, until she hits the escape button on the conversation by letting him know she'll be stealing one of his cars to get back to town.
* Bullock throws a villainous monk into and through a pillar while underground. Bricks start falling from the ceiling and realizes [[LoadBearingBoss what he's just done]]. He looks at the ceiling and starts begging it to stay up.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x11 Worse Than A Crime]]]]
* When Gordon regains consciousness from last week's hijinks, he finds himself in Nygma's apartment. With Nygma and Penguin playing piano, singing a duet, and generally looking like the odd couple fans have begun to love (Nygmobblepot indeed!). Their smiles once he's awake are what especially sells it.
-->'''Gordon''': (''utterly confused'') What the hell...?
* Nygma discreetly informs Lee about Jim's whereabouts. Of course, being the future Riddler, he does so with a rhyme ("Is your lover man alive? Go to Grundy 805"). Lee merely responds with a FlatWhat expression on her face.
* When Leslie finds them, she reams Gordon out for what he's about to do, saying he's crazy for allying with a "depraved sociopath" like the Penguin. Who is standing six feet away, and protests that [[ImStandingRightHere he can hear her]]. Leslie just snaps at him and tells him to shush as if he was a naughty child.
* Alfred getting tazed in the face by a couple of overzealous cops.
* Penguin's face when Lee reveals she's pregnant.
* Selina showing up to help, Fox asking who she is and Bullock responding "Fox, Cat. Cat, Fox."
* Alfred and Selina's bickering throughout the rescue mission:
--> '''Alfred:''' "How do we know that you're not working with Galavan now?"
--> '''Selina:''' "How do I know you're not a Martian in a rubber suit?"
** Later:
--> '''[[ServileSnarker Alfred]]:''' "I do believe, Master Bruce, that this falls very firmly into the category of "IToldYouSo"."
--> '''[[LittleMissSnarker Selina]]:''' "I told him so too, Alfred."
* Nygma suffering his first compulsion for riddles when asked where Penguin is.
-->'''Fox:''' "Home. So, he's at your home?"
-->'''Nygma:''' "No. Yes. ''({{Beat}})'' Who are you?"
* Bullock struggling to climb the stairs to get to the big fight that's been brewing for half a season. He misses the fight entirely -- only showing up to finish off the last of the villains. Everyone looks at him as he huffs and puffs and just says, "There were a ''lot'' of stairs."
** The fight itself. Around 20-30 cultists wielding nothing but knives charge at Gordon, Alfred, Penguin, Selina, and a dozen or so of Penguin's goons. Who all happen to have high powered firearms on their side. [[ForegoneConclusion It ends about as quickly as you'd expect.]]
* Bruce claiming that he had things well in hand [[BlatantLies and was getting ready to escape]]. The look Selina and Alfred give each other in response to that is ''priceless''.
* Tabitha stands up for Silver when Theo expresses his intent to leave her behind. And then she shoves her backward out of a skyscraper penthouse. (Silver was wearing a parachute, but still.)
* The coroners unbagging Theo's corpse... and revealing an ''umbrella shoved all the way down his throat''. BlackComedy 101, folks.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x12 Mr. Freeze]]]]
* When Gordon asks where you would get supercoolant liquid helium, Edward seriously asks "why do you need it?"
* After Victor freezes a pharmacist in front of a store full of people, it's darkly funny that he gets them to help him load the frozen man into his van as if he was an appliance he'd just bought.
* Bullock's insistence on being proven right about the correct pronunciation of the surname Fries.
* Victor goes to the police to give himself up, and asks to speak with Gordon... only to not be believed, as he's the ''fifth that night'' that came to confess. Quite funny... [[MoodWhiplash At least until he sees that his latest test subject survived]] and he runs.
** When musing on how many people came to confess, Alvarez mused "Must be a full moon". Turns out, it's actually a full moon.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x13 A Dead Man Feels No Cold]]]]
* Bullock complains that he might freeze to death while waiting for Mr. Freeze to show up. He immediately realizes how ironic that would be.
* Freeze's DynamicEntry into Arkham Asylum is met with a bewildered stare by one of the inmates. To top it off, Mr. Freeze pulls back the visor on his spacesuit/icesuit thing and ''smiles'', like an explorer who landed on the Moon.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x14 This Ball of Mud and Meanness]]]]
* [[OneSceneWonder Jeri]], the contact Bruce goes to see to learn the whereabouts of Malone. She strikes the right balance of creepy ''and'' funny, culminating in using a ''mosh-pit'' to subdue Jim Gordon. Plus, with her clown make-up, general attitude and JoiseyAccent, she reminds more than a few fans of [[Characters/BatmanRoguesGalleryPart1 Harley Quinn]], if she aged a few decades.
** Special mention goes to her using a ''mosh pit'' of all things to delay Gordon long enough for Bruce to escape.
** And then followed up by her conversation with Gordon in the interrogation room. Her bored responses and successful efforts to rile him up were made even more hilarious by Gordon's growing anger.
* Bullock's exasperation at Alfred admitting, to a ''pair of cops'', that he was planning on killing Malone.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x15 Mad Grey Dawn]]]]
* "[[ItMakesSenseInContext If you give us the coffee can and close your eyes, you'll be able to fly.]]"
* Nygma's reaction to the [[StepfordSmiler new Penguin]]:
-->"Gonna be totally honest, the new you is creeping me out."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x16 Prisoners]]]]
* The guard who helps Gordon escape asks Gordon to [[MakeItLookLikeAStruggle hit him so it'll look like he tried to stop him]], but adds a request to avoid hitting him in the mouth because he just had his teeth fixed.
* After Oswald rebuffs Elijah's stepdaughter's advances, his stepson matter-of-factly asks if she wants him to [[SorryImGay give it a try]].
* Falcone pointing out that Bullock is committing a faux pas in his presence.
-->'''Falcone''': You know, Harvey, it's very rude to wear a hat indoors.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x17 Into the Woods]]]]
* Harvey "using his connections into IA" to help Gordon get the tape that could point him to who framed him.
* "I saved enough for burgers."
* As the GCPD is preparing to arrest Ed, he bolts... and after 5 seconds he trips and falls face first into the snow.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x18 Pinewood]]]]
* After Barbara's rather dramatic reunion with Jim, Harvey casually comes in carrying pizza and beer. The OhCrap expression on his face upon seeing Barbara is just priceless.
** Even more hilarious is Harvey's reaction immediately after Barbara leaves. He comically crushes the pizza box he's holding repeatedly while yelling for Gordon and trying frantically and fruitlessly to break down Gordon's door.
* Just the sheer fact that Harvey has a "whammy drawer" filled with all sorts of crazy melee weapons, including, of all things, ''a pair of nunchucks''. Upon finding them, Jim just looks at Harvey as if to say, "Really?"
** And Harvey' response. "Oooh, good choice!"
** After Jim leaves, Harvey comments that it's going to be a bad day for Gotham's hitmen.
*** And, as the ensuing montage proves, he's ''right''.
* Barbara's plan to get information out of the Lady didn't impress Jim.
-->'''Barbara:''' I needed the Lady to trust me. It's called a plan.
-->'''Gordon:''' A plan? What if I'd stayed outside?
-->'''Barbara:''' ''(grinning)'' Really?
-->'''Gordon:''' ''(annoyed expression conceding the point)''
* As awesome as Gordon's plan turns out to be, there's something hilarious about him asking ''Bruce Wayne'' how much money he can put together in a hurry.
* Butch's nonplussed reaction to Tabitha kissing a sleeping Barbara. "Huh."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x19 Azrael]]]]
* Edward convincing everyone in his cell that he's conversing with a ghost named Lucy. It's just two whole minutes of pure Nygma hamminess.
* Hugo Strange decides to put Galavan's skills to the test. Providing him with a metal chest, he orders Galavan to kill Helzinger using whatever weapon it encases. He then proceeds to knock Helzinger out ''with the chest''. Strange ends up slack-jawed with surprise.
-->'''Hugo Strange''': ...Not exactly what I had in mind, but good enough. Try ''opening'' the chest, my son.
* When Edward enlists his fellow Arkham inmates to fetch him things that'll help him [[spoiler:find Hugo Strange's secrets]], one of them gets him a fly swatter, even though he specifically asked for a bug zapper.
-->'''Edward''': What is this?
-->'''Norton''': It's a fly swatter!
-->'''Edward''': I can see that it's a fly swatter. I didn't ask for a fly swatter, I asked for the bug zapper in the kitchen.
-->'''Norton''': What's the difference?
-->'''Edward''': The difference is that one has a black light that emits ultraviolet energy, and this is ''leather on a stick''!
-->'''Norton''' ''(defensive)'': They both kill flies!
* Strange's supremely irritated "What is it?" when a phone call pulls him away from Galavan.
* Peabody is in full ServileSnarker mode in this episode. Her "YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe" expression when Strange starts on his Saint Dumas shtick must be seen to be believed.
** Her unhelpful aside when Strange presents Galavan with what he claims is an AncestralWeapon passed down for generations.
-->'''Peabody''': Generations? That sword was made yesterday.
-->'''Strange''': I know.
* Barbara's slide back into insanity is played for laughs, due to Butch and Tabitha's reactions to it.
-->''Barbara appears above Butch and Tabitha wielding a cleaver with a crazed look''
-->'''Barbara''': Do we have any limes?
-->''cut to Butch, looking scared, and Tabitha, who doesn't react''

[[folder:[[AC: 2x20 Unleashed]]]]
* Selina and Nygma's banter while in the vents of Arkham.
** They immediately recognize each other, but don't remember each other's names:
--->'''Selina:''' Forensics guy!
--->'''Nygma:''' Street trash girl!
** When Nygma asks Selina if she knows how to pick a lock, she gives him a look that says "Have you ''met'' me?"
* Butch's frustration when Gordon and Bullock [[SwissCheeseSecurity just walk right into his headquarters]]:
-->'''Butch''': [[LampshadeHanging Do I even have security?!]]
* Penguin's hilariously casual dismissal of Azrael:
--->'''The Penguin:''' I, for one, do not buy this whole "Uber-Villain" thing. If he wants to [[HellbentForLeather wear leather,]] [[DracoInLeatherPants he should just wear leather]]! This is Gotham, nobody's gonna care!
* Combined with [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Awesome Moments]], the part where Penguin just casually strolls through the gates of Wayne Manor after Jim, Alfred and Bruce have ''all'' just finished trying to kill Azrael, and failed. His threat to Galavan with his umbrella just seals the deal.
-->''' The Penguin''': My last one got stuck in your throat, so I'm thinking about shoving this one [[AssShove somewhere else]].
* The assorted reactions when Butch [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill hauls out a rocket launcher]] to deal with Azrael/Galavan, made doubly so by the music accompanying the scene.
-->'''Azrael/Galavan:''' [[OhCrap Ohhh...]]
-->''Gordon, Alfred and Bruce--who are standing '''behind''' Galavan--take one look and dive for cover.''
** Penguin then says "You're welcome!" before leaving with Butch, who casually waves goodbye to them.
-->'''Butch:''' Goodnight fellas!
** Alfred waving back after Penguin and Butch as they walk off.
* Nygma spends the entire episode crawling through Arkham's air vents in order to escape. At the end, he finally makes it outside... [[ButtMonkey and is then apprehended by the cops just moments later]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x21 A Legion of Horribles]]]]
* Bullock's press conference. Just...Bullock's press conference.
-->'''Reporter:''' Can you confirm that the man known as Azrael was, in fact, disgraced Mayor Galavan?
-->'''Bullock:''' Well, seeing as how the suspect is now [[CrossesTheLineTwice meat dust]], a positive identification would be difficult.
-->'''Reporter:''' How long do you plan to serve as Acting Captain?
-->'''Bullock:''' Until literally the second someone else wants the job.
-->'''Reporter:''' Who killed Theo Galavan?
-->'''Bullock:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Which time?]]
** And when he explains that the killer calling himself "Azrael" was "blown up," by unknown assailants, it cuts to one of the reporters who looks up from his notebook with a look that says, "Seriously?"
* When Lucius and Bruce are being held prisoner by Nygma at Strange's request, Lucius remembers him as the forensic scientist with the funny name. Ed is clearly less than pleased at the description.
* When [[spoiler:Fish Mooney]] tries to get a guard's attention [[spoiler: she]] inadvertently demands him to make a grilled cheese sandwich. The whole sequence is... interesting to say the least.
-->'''[[spoiler: Mooney:]]''' Why did you make me a sandwich?
-->'''Guard:''' I... don't know.
* After Strange completes [[spoiler:Clayface's transformation into Gordon]], a shocked Gordon shouts in his direction, "You son of a bitch!" [[spoiler:Clayface]]'s response is a more positive-sounding and rather jovial "Son of a bitch! Nice to meet you."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x22 Transference]]]]
* In a BlackComedy sort of way, there's Penguin putting his [[DeadGuyOnDisplay dead stepmother's head on display]], with Barbara giving him advice on how to do so like it's a work of art, while a creeped out Butch watches.
-->'''Penguin''': What do you think, Butch?
-->'''Butch''': ...Interior design's not really my thing.
* [[spoiler:Clayface]] pretending to be [[spoiler:Gordon]] for a good chunk of the episode is quite an amusing sight, from his cheesy smile to his gruff voice and snarky personality. And ''no one realises'' he isn't really [[spoiler:Gordon]] until Barbara points it out.
* Fish getting a YourMom joke in at Peabody's expense.
** Later, when Strange is trying to win her over, she tells him that he'd "have made a good pimp".
* Lucius and Bruce get gassed and pass out. When they wake up, they're in a room with the similarly drugged Gordon, none too sure if they're alive. Lucius complains, "wow, that was ''unpleasant''!" and the three sort of bumble about and try to pull themselves together. Gordon offers a heartfelt apology for making his vow to Bruce, which leads to Lucius saying this gem: "Uhh... what kind of drugs did they give you?!"
* When coercing Nigma to help Gordon and Lucius find [[spoiler:the bomb]] Nigma playfully asks what he gets if he does help.
-->'''Gordon''': You get to live.\\
'''Nigma''': ''[{{beat}}]'' Fair enough.
* Gordon and Lucius [[spoiler:shorting out the bomb at the absolute last second with a cup of water,]] as per Peabody's instructions. Then it turns out she was [[spoiler:asking for a ''drink'' of water]]. Cue two hilarious "Holy Crap, we almost died because of a hunch!" looks on the men's faces.
** Additionally, look at Peabody when Gordon is getting the water [[spoiler:to disarm the bomb.]] She actually expects that he's getting it for her and is mildly disappointed when he walks past her.
* Penguin panicking and fainting at the sight of [[spoiler:Fish back from the dead]].
* At the end, Gordon leaves Harvey in charge to find Strange's monsters while he leaves Gotham to find Lee. When he gets into a car and drives off, Harvey immediately realizes...
-->'''Harvey''': ...That's my car. Th-that's my car!
** And his parting advice to Harvey? If he's the boss, he should get a haircut.
* With Hugo Strange locked up and the mystery behind who had the Waynes killed solved, Alfred notes that Bruce should be about ready to move on with his life...until Bruce says he learned about a secret council controlling Gotham City. All the poor butler can do is roll his eyes and mutter "[[HereWeGoAgain Bloody hell...]]"
* If that really was [[spoiler: Jerome]] getting off the bus in the end, he might have just demonstrated his [[spoiler: JokerImmunity]] for the first time!

!!Season 3
[[folder:[[AC: 3x1 Better to Reign in Hell...]]]]
* During his fight with someone who may well be [[spoiler:Killer Croc]], Gordon punches him in the gut [[NoSell for no effect]]... On his opponent, that's it: the way he slowly took his fist back and looked at it while saying "Ow..." indicates that it had some effect on ''him''.
* After Barbara beats up the gangster who tried to muscle her out of her bar, she cracks up at his inability to say the word "club" with his broken nose.
* Butch complains about working with Barbara.
-->'''Butch''': Hello? She's crazy, she was in Arkham!
-->'''Oswald''': Hello! So was I!
* Butch is brooding over how much seeing Tabitha with Barbara hurts. Selina comes up to him and leaves after making brief conversation, after which when Penguin comes back up to him.
-->'''[[AllLoveIsUnrequited Butch:]]''' Just seeing her kills me, you know?
-->'''Penguin:''' Get over it. And that child just stole your wallet.
* Penguin gives Nygma a puzzle box that has allegedly driven people mad trying to solve and open it for generations. Nygma opens it within seconds.
-->'''Nygma:''' [[DamnedByFaintPraise It was a lovely gesture]].

[[folder:[[AC: 3x2 Burn the Witch]]]]
* Jim's "Ugh, ThisIsGonnaSuck" expression when he realizes he has to see Barbara to find out where Selina is.
* Barbara telling Vale "Jim and I were engaged but I broke it off" and he just gives a "riiiiiiiight" look at her.
** The best part is, she's right! Technically, she ''did'' break it off with him. Even though she later wanted him back.
* Barbara's bizarre dream:
-->'''Barbara''': You were in a terrible accident and you lost your legs and I had to push you around in a giant baby carriage.
-->'''Jim''': Good to see you, Barbara.
* Gordon telling Fish he's useless as a hostage, since if she kills him, Barnes would probably just thank her.
* This parting exchange:
-->'''Fish''': Harvey, [[NothingPersonal no hard feelings?]]
-->'''Bullock''': Fish, screw you!
-->'''Fish''': Fair enough.
* Strange's clear panic at Gordon tossing his life into the bargain with Fish.
* Fish asks if Penguin is really going to kill her after she spared his life. He replies with a cheerful "Pretty much!"
* Alfred suggesting Bruce use his spare time for dancing lessons near the end.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 3x3 Look Into My Eyes]]]]
* Harvey trying and failing to keep Jim from meeting Lee when he comes to cash in a bounty while Barnes is offering her her old job, and [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Harvey and Barnes' faces when they do indeed meet]].
* Butch's comment about Penguin's election staff:
-->"Look, you know [[EvenEvilHasStandards I've faced the worst Gotham has to offer, but politicians, they scare me]]."
* Tetch uses Barbara in his hypnotism act, and picks the worst possible way to do it: [[{{Yandere}} making her think she loves him, but he doesn't love her back.]] Tabitha gives a casual "Oh dear" as she sees where this is going.
* Former mayor James, trying to worm his way back into the office after the disasters of Season Two but dealing with a politically ambitious Penguin, calls Cobblepot in for a face-to-face at a quiet little Italian restaurant. They both know the dangers of meeting in a place like that... which is why James hired three gunmen to pose as the wait staff to aim guns at Penguin when he moves like he's going to attack...
** Only for Penguin to reveal that he sent in ''everyone else in that restaurant'' to [[OutGambitted aim their guns]] at James' henchmen.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 3x4 New Day Rising]]]]
* When Penguin is angry at Nygma:
-->'''Penguin''': Give me one good reason why I don't tell Butch to shoot you.
-->'''Nygma''': Well, there's thirty witnesses here...
-->'''Penguin''': I don't care!
* Bruce becomes a little obsessed with the thought of Selina kissing his copy.
-->'''Alfred''': [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Oh, bloody hell.]]
* Oswald suddenly has an orange-tinted face in this episode, for literally no reason except to increase his resemblance to Donald Trump.
** Actually, that's a bit of FridgeBrilliance. In the old days of TV, orange makeup made a [[RealityIsUnrealistic face look white.]] Given that Gotham is a bit of an AnachronismStew, they probably use outdated TV cameras.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC:3x5 Anything For You]]]]
* At his constituent meeting, Penguin mentions his mother's murder and throws a brief glare at Butch, who did play an indirect role in said murder. Butch responds by innocently looking away.
* Nygma's return to the GCPD and his interactions with both Lee and Lucius.
-->'''Lucius''': You are insane.
-->'''Nygma''': ''Was'' insane. I have a certificate.
* There's something funny about the entirety of the scene where Bruce and Selina are talking on the roof. For two seasons, they've been in the worst possible places at any given time, through a combination of bad luck and impulsiveness. In this episode, they apparently missed the whole drama for the sake of Bruce confessing that he likes her.
** There's also Bruce getting confused. Selina walked away with a smirk.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC:3x6 Follow the White Rabbit]]]]
* When Jervis tries to taunt Gordon over the phone, the latter proceeds to hang up just to spite him. Jervis gets genuinely annoyed, and spends a minute repeatedly calling Jim back while Jim refuses to play his mind games.
-->'''Jervis''': Don't you ever do that again!
-->'''Gordon''': Okay. ''([[{{Troll}} hangs up again]])''
* Valerie again shows her dedication to her job by interviewing Lee about Alice's blood. While they're being held hostage.
-->'''Lee''': (annoyed) You and Jim are made for each other.\\
'''Valerie''': Thanks.\\
'''Lee''': It's not a compliment.

* The Penguin hearing from Gabe that he likes librarians [[spoiler:when he sabotaged Isabella's car.]]
* When Bullock meets back with Gordon after searching the party for Dr. Symon:

* The antiquity dealer saying he has an eye for beauty... [[MyEyesAreUpHere Just as he looks at Ivy's cleavage]].
* Selina's incredulous look when the ''adult'' woman in her house reveals herself as Ivy.
** She tells Bruce she knows it's her as "she came and ''immediately'' ate all my food."
* Ivy explains that "when you look like this, guys just come up to you and give you stuff. Half the time, you don't even have to steal it." When Bruce says Ivy "looks nice," Selina gives him a ''Seriously?'' look.
* When Ivy realizes that Bruce and Selina have hooked up since she last saw them:
-->'''Ivy''': Oh my God. Are you two a couple now?
-->'''Bruce/Selina''': Yes/No.
-->'''Bruce''': (''confused'') We're not?
-->'''Selina''': ...I am not doing this right now!
* Ivy's pitiful attempts to negotiate a price for the emerald with Bruce.
* Oswald trying to convince Edward to move on from Isabella.

* This gem from Barbara:
--> '''Babs:''' "Hello, comrade."
--> '''Olga the maid:''' "'Comrade' is not Russian word."
--> '''Babs:''' "Oh shut up, of course it is!"
* Penguin has just lied and told Barbara he has no idea where Butch or Tabitha are. The next second he is urgently on the phone with Ed, who is about to torture Tabitha and Butch, who Ed mistakenly thinks killed Isabella, when it was really Penguin himself:
--> '''Ed:''' "I need to work through my grief, my way."
--> '''Oswald:''' "Of course, and I support you. Any chance you could work through it a ''smidge'' faster?!"
** And after Ed gets off the phone:
--> '''Ed:''' ''[To Tabby and Butch]'' "He can be so self-centered."
* Gordon and Bullock, as usual:
--> '''Gordon:''' "I need you to keep an eye on Mario. ''[Bullock turns toward Mario]'' What are you doing?"
--> '''Bullock:''' "Keeping an eye on Mario."
--> '''Gordon:''' "Don't look at him!"
* As well as, Selina and Bruce, about to enter the bad guy lair:
-->'''Bruce:''' "There's no way of asking you to stay here that doesn't end with you yelling at me, is there?"
-->'''Selina'''(matter-of-factly): "No"
* Both Barbara and Ed having a "barf" reaction to Tabby and Butch being an item.

[[folder:[[AC:3x11 Beware The Green-Eyed Monster]]]]
* Nygma's absolute stunned reaction to realizing how Oswald is in love with him and Barbara hilariously mimicking how he bumped off Isabella.
* Jervis acting like a DeadpanSnarker when being interrogated by Gordon about who he infected with Alice's blood:
--> '''Jervis:''' "So, I've been quiet about it all this time, and now I'm going to help you because we're such good friends?"
--> '''Gordon:''' "'Because I could make your life here very uncomfortable."
--> '''Jervis:''' "More uncomfortable than [[CallBack having Captain Barnes next door screaming "guilty" all hours of the night]]?"

[[folder:[[AC:3x13 Smile Like You Mean It]]]]
* Jerome, upon (finally) coming back to life, decides to get his revenge on Theo Galavan for killing him, only to hear that he had already been killed. Disappointed, he asks who was responsible, only for Lee to bluntly let him know that he died ''twice''. After complaining about Galavan always upstaging him, he settles for [[ItMakesSenseInContext asking where his face is]].
** Also, Jerome turns out to be a ShipperOnDeck for Jim and Lee.
** He also sounds genuinely disappointed when he finds out that he failed to kill Bruce the night that he died.
-->'''Jerome''': So when I was last, y'know, ''alive'', I was about to kill Bruce Wayne. I suppose I didn't manage to... ''(Lee subtly nods "no")'' ...no, right.
** Jerome also not so subtly asks if he and Lee ever had sex, and she responds with a disgusted "Oh GOD no"
-->'''Jerome''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint What, ginger's not your type?]]
** The funniest part is probably the fact that Lee sounds so ''nonchalant'' about it, like this is just another part of her ordinary daily routine.
* When Lee suggests to Jerome that perhaps he's dreaming and if he shot himself he might wake up, Jerome does put the gun to his head for a second before waving it off as a bad idea.
* Even Gordon thinks the real Jerome is more entertaining than Dwight pretending to be him is.
-->'''Gordon''': For the record, you're doing one thing Jerome never did: boring me. ''[hangs up]''
** Heck, all of Dwight's attempts to upstage Jerome can come off as hilarious, with Jerome himself getting annoyed.
* Even with as nuts as the Joker gang is, Dwight's attempt to pass himself off as Jerome by wearing his face quickly has them all confused and calling bullshit.
* While he callously [[KickTheDog runs over a random pedestrian]] in a police car, Jerome has the decency to sheepishly [[BlackComedy shout "Sorry!"]] afterwards. What makes it funnier is that he sounds [[AffablyEvil genuinely apologetic]].
* At the beginning of the episode, two guards are playing cards, and one says, "Joker's wild!" Yes, yes [[{{Pun}} he certainly is]]...
* When told that there is likely a mole within the GCPD, Harvey angrily sweeps his desk, accidentally knocking over a lamp in the process. Cue beat, with Harvey himself looking embarrassed, before saying that he was going to replace said-lamp anyway.

[[folder:[[AC:3x14 The Gentle Art of Making Enemies]]]]
* When Bruce pushes Jerome during an attempt to hit another guy with a ball, he throws it at the bullseye and cries foul as if the minion nearest to him was a "zebra".
-->'''Jerome''': Foul! ...He pushed me! Did you see it?
* Butch and Tabitha's jabs at each other throughout the episode, from Tabitha pointing out that Butch knocking out Oswald meant he had to carry him, to the two bickering over which one of them could get Oswald to give up Nygma's location.
* In a [[BlackComedy morbidly humorous]] sort of way, Jerome shooting a cowboy dead for interrupting his show with annoying yells.
-->'''Jerome''' ''(through a bullhorn, visibly annoyed)'': '''SHUT UP!'''
* In the mirror room, Jerome challenges Bruce to a "man y mano" fight and eggs him on to "be a hero". When Bruce sneaks up from behind and tackles him to the ground, the latter complains, "What kind of hero tackles someone from behind?!"
** There's also Jerome's hilariously [[ComicBook/TheJoker Joker]]-esque fighting stance: he cartoonishly raises his fists while going "Put 'em up! Put 'em up!"
* After Jim takes down Jerome by punching his face off, the latter merely reacts with a simple [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction "Ow."]] before falling to the floor.
** Then there's Jim's [[OhCrap expression]] after he punched Jerome.
** And of course, Harvey says what we're all thinking and lampshades it.
--->'''Harvey:''' "At least you get to say you punched a man's face off. That's something, right?"

[[folder:[[AC:3x15 How The Riddler Got His Name]]]]
* A lot of Nygma's interactions with Hallucination!Penguin.
** When the hallucination first shows up, Ed complains about him dripping water and seaweed all over the couch.
-->'''Hallucination!Penguin''': You're the only person I know who complains about his hallucinations making a mess.
** At one point, the hallucination breaks out in a song and dance number, much to Ed's bafflement.
** Since Hallucination!Penguin appears as Oswald would after spending several weeks at the bottom of the sea, he also has seaweed and other plants growing on him. At one point, he picks a live crab off his shoulder with an amused look on his face.
* Nygma's idea of sending clues to the GCPD? Singing telegrams ''dressed as fruit''. The fact that the GCPD [[SeenItAll barely]] [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight react]] to it just makes it even funnier.
* Lucius and Leslie's nonchalant reactions to finding Harvey's stolen badge inserted into a corpse's stomach. Culminating in Lucius forgetting he's holding it and attempting to leave the room with the blood-covered evidence.
-->'''Lucius''': Thank you, doctor. ''(Heads for the door)''\\
'''Lee''': Uh...\\
'''Lucius''': ''(Hands her the badge)'' Thank you, doctor. Sorry. I know. Thank you.

* Gordon says there's one person outside the Court of Owls' control he can ask to investigate them. Bullock immediately starts shouting not to do it, followed by a GilliganCut to Barbara on her throne, collecting tributes while "Love Hurts" plays.
* Ivy reminds us that despite appearances she's still mentally a kid, as before helping Oswald she makes him promise to be nice to her. Oswald makes a face like he's struggling to conceive how he landed in this position.
* Bullock's reaction to the Court of Owls.
-->'''Bullock''': A secret organization that runs Gotham? Someone should tell them they're doing a terrible job.

[[folder: [[AC:3x17 The Primal Riddle]]]]
* Bullock noting the Hamlet actor the Riddler murdered. "I guess it wasn't...meant to be." Gordon's look at the joke is far funnier.
* The Mayor brushing off the Riddler's threat by pointing out that there are so many corrupt politicians in Gotham, the riddle could have been about anyone.

* When Oswald is put into a cage next to Ed, Ed slaps him on the forehead to make sure he's not another delusion.
* Oswald and Edward acting like five-year old babies while locked up, like calling each other names or laughing when the other gets hurt.
* Oswald scaring away the homeless people.
* Bullock yelling about Barnes going missing.
-->'''Bullock''': There's a nutjob running around in a leather suit with an axe for an arm! I know this is Gotham, but come on!
* Bullock's reaction to finding out about the Bruce clone is to just sit in a chair and [[INeedAFreakingDrink clearly wish for a drink]].

* In the opening scene, we see Gotham plunge into sheer anarchy as its denizens go mad from the Tetch Virus. Amidst the chaos, two infected little girls are shown chasing a man, violently demanding that he buy their cookies.
** The opening primarily focuses on a little old lady who has been infected with the virus. She holds up a bank for her life savings (which they probably [[AcceptableTargets screwed her out of]]). It seems pretty scary- until the GilliganCut to her walking down the street with a bag full of cash, perfectly happy and content, while the city tears itself apart behind her.
* After being cured, Jim goes into Harvey's office. Harvey is a bit sour due to Jim pushing him into a train earlier. No, ''two'' trains. According to Harvey, he felt like a "freakin' cartoon".

* The sheer RefugeInAudacity of Penguin ''licensing'' crime.
* The band at the wedding is playing a retro cover of [[MemeticMutation "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley]]. The show's not even trying to pretend it's not trolling the audience anymore.
* Bruce pulling his first Batman-style StealthHiBye on Gordon, in the middle of the GCPD in broad daylight. Gordon's confusion is priceless.
* Zsasz is back, and as usual is worth some BlackComedy laughs:
** He shows up to stop the unlicensed stick up of a wedding reception, shooting off the finger of one of the crooks to scare them away. And then, when the bride tries to thank him, he says not to bother, since the heavily armed men with him ''do'' have licenses.
** His back and forth with Tabitha when he shows up at her and Selina's rundown apartment.
-->'''Zsasz''': Didn't you use to be rich?\\
'''Tabitha''': That was before your boss stole my club.\\
'''Zsasz''': Well, you killed his mother and tried to kill him, so... call it even?
* Oswald does a big speech to the frozen Ed, noting how he now feels trapped and "I wonder which one of us is frozen." Naturally, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Ivy points out it's Eddie.]]
* Alfred's exasperation at the latest round of TheMasochismTango between Bruce and Selina -- her making him balance on a rooftop ledge with her to deliver his apology for being a jerk last time they talked.
-->"You two! Why can't you meet at the bloody cinema like normal teenagers?"

* Zsasz practically squeeing over the weapons in Barbara's arsenal.
* Harvey's trying to persuade Jim from not going to Don Falcone for help.
--> "You killed his son! Italians don't forget that sort of thing!"
* When Lucius Fox delivers the first of the proto-Batman suits, he keeps mentioning the equipment is for "rock-climbing," even mentioning the two way radio installed to keep in touch whilst "climbing rocks."

* When he discovers Ed's body is missing, Oswald freaks out. Victor is less upset as he takes in the massive hole in the ice block.
-->'''Zsasz''': I don't know. I think it opens up the room.
* Also, how very pleased with himself Zsasz sounds to have nailed the "frog in a blender" riddle.
* Just the insane humor of ''Nygma'' being "rescued" by a nutcase stalker who was also a former grade school classmate.
* Bruce's pathetic attempt at a "tough guy" accent at the docks.
* Bruce hamming it up at the auction. A theme of the episode is Bruce learning to wear masks, whether they be actual masks or metaphorical ones in the form of new personas. He's learning now how to play Bruce Wayne.
** Bruce and Barbara want the same knife, and twice, Bruce outbids Barbara by one dollar. The third time, he outbids her by one cent.
** And the Penguin deliberately cutting off Barbara's rival bid ''just'' because she annoys him.
* Selina comes into Wayne Manor's study to find Bruce in the dark.
-->'''Selina''': Why are you sitting alone in the dark?\\
'''Bruce''': I was expecting someone else.\\
'''Selina''': Like who?

* Ed sends Oswald a message in the form of two homeless men, who rap the riddle. Victor bops his head along with the tune.
** There's also Victor repeatedly whining about wanting to torture the men. Finally, Oswald gets so annoyed he lets him.
** Later, when Nygma shows up to confront Penguin, he's ambushed by Freeze, who casually asks him if he wants to be frozen in the same pose as last time, or something new, as if discussing a haircut.
** Oswald outright telling Nygma that his riddles suck.
* Oswald and Victor find a trio of mobsters wanting to throw in with Falcone.
-->'''Oswald''': Victor, how many graves did you dig?
-->'''Victor''': Two. But they're roomy.
* Gordon getting rid of Anubis, Ra's vicious dog-man, with an absurd yet logical action: Throwing him a dinosaur bone to fetch, [[DestinationDefenestration out a window]].

* #4 on Penguin's "To-Do" list is "Kill Sofia Falcone". When she comes to him to offer him an alliance, he tells his employee to add a question mark to the end.
* Ed tries to rob a pharmacy and screams about how they don't have anything for them. The tied-up clerk notes that "a pill to handle your brain being frozen and unfrozen? That's kind of specific...."
* The clerk claims he has some experimental drugs hidden away. Ed looks for them just in time for the clerk to ram a quill pen into his hand. He then grabs Ed's gun...which turns out to be fake. He tosses it into Ed's ribs causing him to yell and stalks out, adding that the pills are just sugar.
* Almost all of Ed's interactions with Solomon Grundy, the newly zombiefied Butch, are hilarious and oddly touching:
** After his EpicFail of robbing a pharmacy, Ed downs the sugar pill bottle he took, then runs into Grundy. He shouts, "''Butch?!''" in a YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe tone, tries to goad him to go after Barbara instead, and comments on his UndeathlyPallor. Grundy gives him a TapOnTheHead and remarks, "Man talk too much." After waking up the next morning, Ed first assumes the incident was a freaky trip from the pills before Grundy shows himself again.
** Ed rants, heartbroken, that he is too damaged himself to help Grundy remember his past, Grundy finds a way to cheer him up: A stolen hotdog cart.
-->'''Ed''': Well, I am feeling a ''bit'' peckish.
** Ed being proud of himself for thinking of something mundane as to throw water on Grundy when he gets lit on fire, and Grundy thanks him with a BearHug.

* Penguin's annoyance when Zsasz keeps referring to his time with Sofia as a "date".
* Due to his brain damage, the only threat Nygma can give Lee is a vague promise of doing "something" to her clinic if she doesn't help him. She can't help but laugh in his face.

* Brant brags that he can get them into this club. The club bouncer can't find the guys on "the list," so Bruce buys the club, in about 30 seconds, then bars Brant from entering.

[[folder:[[AC: 4x08 Stop Hitting Yourself]]]]
* Nygma's ridiculously over-the-top Penguin impression during the pre-fight show, complete with a makeshift penguin mask, a cartoonish waddle, and a nerdy, nasally voice.
* Penguin's chief aide tells Barbara, Tabitha and Selina about the mocking in "a terrible commedia dell'arte!" The trio stare at him as if he's speaking Martian.
* Selina can't help giggling at the news of Nygma mocking Penguin in the fights.
* Barbara's amazing OhCrap face upon seeing Butch. Seeing her aboslutely caught off guard for once is immensely satisfying.
-->'''Tabitha''': Do you know what this means?!
-->'''Barbara''': Yeah, it means you owe me an apology for electrocuting me.
* Oswald's "teaching" of how to properly take revenge against the adorable mute sociopath is both endearing and disturbing.
** The way the youth communicates via drawings shows a mind so dark you can't help but laugh.
* Ed mocks Lee's "only thing that stinks is you" line before shooting Firefly.
-->'''Lee''': I get melodramatic under pressure.

[[folder:[[AC: 4x09 Let Them Eat Pie]]]]
* However dark and grisly the situation, Pyg's parody of the [[Theatre/{{Chicago}} Cell Block Tango]] is worth a chuckle.
* Pyg reassures Sofia that he didn't harm the children that were suppose to perform for the dinner, because despite appearances, he isn't an animal. And then he oinks like a pig.

* Jim goes to a brothel to ask the madam if she's seen Harvey. She tells him how he asked for two very heavyset ladies.

* The ad for the Siren Club. Barbara and Tabitha are doing hot dancing while Selina is doing some lame hopping with a "please shoot me" expression.
-->'''Barbara''': The Club is back with a passion.
-->'''Tabitha''': Women drink for free while men...don't.
-->'''Selina''': ''(flatly)'' You'll like it. It's nice.
* Bruce's role in the episode is primarily hanging around in the background, [[BecomingTheMask leaning into]] the billionaire brat facade he cultivated as a cover just a few episodes before and making mildly annoying comments everyone ignores.
* All it takes is seeing an annoying redhead causing trouble and driving men crazy for Selina to figure it's Ivy.
* Barbara beautifully trolling Gordon by telling him where to find "the Doc," not letting him know it's Lee.
** Followed by Jim's "oh come ON!" look, first seeing Lee and then realizing Nygma is working for her.
* Jim brings Eddie up to speed on his target.
-->'''Gordon''': Toymaker turned assassin.

* Jim and Lee catch up.
-->'''Gordon''': So you're partners with Ed. Why?
-->'''Eddie''': I'm right here.
-->'''Lee''': Why not? He wouldn't have been my first choice but the universe has funny ways.
-->'''Eddie''': Still here.
* Alfred is surprised to find Harvey is now a bartender.

* Ivy uses her new toxins to make an entire family adore her.

* Bullock showing up as Alfred in Bruce's nightmare. And for some reason, he's petting a chicken.
* When Harper talks of Ivy as "the coolest", Jim automatically calls her a psycho. He then sees every cop in the building glaring at him and Selina confirms this is Ivy's work.
-->'''Harper''': What did you mean by Ivy's a psycho?
-->'''Jim''': Hold that thought, Harper...we'll be right back.
** He and Selina do a horrible job pretending to love Ivy later.
* Oswald tries to trick Jerome into being electrocuted. When Jerome escapes, Oswald does a hysterical "ah, nuts" pout. He then grabs a spork off a table.
-->'''Jerome''': Yeah, that's a spoon.
-->'''Oswald''': It is also a fork!
* The "mime-off" between Oswald and Jerome has to be seen to be believed.
* Ivy leaves a brainwashed Lucius to face Jim.

* Realizing Ivy is after Harvey, Jim leads cops to burst in. When they see Harvey laid out on the couch, Lucius groans "we're too late" but Jim knows Harvey's just drunk.
* Harvey realizes that he is the primary target for Ivy's revenge, and he's going to go after her alone:
-->'''Harvey''': ...I got more contacts in The Narrows than any of you. I'm going to find her. Alone.
-->''Beat''
-->'''Harvey''': (comes back in) Once I find my pants.
-->'''Gordon''': (nods, "good call")
* Ed offering the street urchins "a complete set of encyclopedias...minus the T." Then, finally motivating them with "...and twenty bucks."
** Later, his summation of the almost soap opera-like relationship web Lee, Gordon and Sofia are in:

* Penguin's increasing frustration at finding his former allies working for Sofia.
-->'''Penguin''': (To the Dentist) You're working for her?! ''Of course you are!''
* Sofia's expression when Zasz brings in Headhunter. She's clearly thinking "when did my organization get filled with these weirdos?"
** Her exasperation when Riddler will only answer her questions with riddles, ''even while being tortured.''
* The climactic battle of Gordon's war with Sofia somehow goes down at a fetish hotel for adult babies.
-->'''Harvey:''' What fresh level of Hell is this?
** It's hard to say who's more embarrassed when Jim and Harvey apprehend Mr. Penn: the cops, for interrogating someone who's dressed in an oversized baby romper, or Mr. Penn for being questioned in one.
* The I'm-sick-and-tired-of-minding-this-weird-kid look that Sofia's guard gives Martin, when the boy shows him a drawing of a toilet to explain why he's leaving the room.
* Riddler tells Martin that "Uncle Penguin" sent him.
* The sight of the Riddler with a flashlight atop his derby hat.
* The close-up of Riddler's OhCrap face when he realizes Grundy is Butch again.
-->'''Ridder''': Oh dear.
* Barbara matches Riddler when Butch says hi. She grabs a corkscrew to stick in his face.

[[folder: [[AC: 4x16 One of My Three Soups]]]]
* Any episode with Jerome in it is guaranteed to be a laugh-riot. Highlights from the ginger maniac include:
** The sheer weirdness of Jerome, of all people, acting like the sane man of the Jervis-Jonathan-Jerome trio, amidst the other two's loony ramblings and lack of focus.
** As he exits his cell, checking his bare wrist.
-->'''Jerome''': When I say three hairs past the freckle, gentlemen, I don't mean five hairs past.
** Him hiding from the police under a table, only to find some gum under there [[{{Squick}} to eat]].
** What he says to his uncle (though this borders on TearJerker and NightmareFuel territory as well): "You really brought back the utter helplessness of childhood."
** His indecision of whether to save Bruce or let him be killed, including his giggling all the while.
** The very sleazy grin he gives when he first lays eyes on Selina.
* Jervis calling Jim to tell him his location like an excited child:
-->'''Jervis''': Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim.
** Him becoming a sudden [[MoodSwinger Mood-Swinger]] in the same conversation.
-->'''Jervis''': To wit, James, find your way to Witt and James Way. ([[SuddenlyShouting Suddenly yelling]]) Do it, or I'm gonna kill someone! ([[MoodWhiplash Suddenly very calm]]) In case you had any doubts.
* Jervis lampshading a certain tendency villains have: "There'll be plenty of time to stab each other in the back later."
* One for Selina: "Bruce... your ego. It's huge."
* Bruce's quip to Jim after letting him know where to find Jerome: "You can yell at me there."
* Bruce's method of stopping Detective Harper from finding Selina stealing Jerome's file is to burst into fake tears.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4x17 Mandatory Brunch Meeting]]]]
* At last, the show's Freaks gather together: Jerome, Oswald, Freeze, Firefly, Scarecrow and Mad Hatter. All around a table where Jerome not only drops the episode title but names them "The Legion of Horribles." Just the sight of these lunatics in their various costumes having a sit-down meal is hysterical.
** One of the brunch servers, Carl, clearly doesn't know how to do his job.
-->'''Jerome''': '''USE THE TONGS, CARL!'''
* Jervis's attempt to hypnotize Harvey is derailed by Harvey letting out a berserker roar and ''bullrushing'' him. Cue Jervis and Crane immediately turning tail and running for their lives from the kamikaze detective.
-->'''Harvey''': Oh, HELL NO! I AM NOT LETTING YOU HYPNOTIZE ME AGAIN!\\
'''Jervis''': ''(while running)'' Must go! Must go! ... [[RhymesOnADime They're-after-me-and-the-Scarecrow]]!
* Jerome taking an elevator up with a shotgun and tapping his feet to the muzak. He mutters about how "I used to be a good whistler" to the elderly woman with him who's just frozen in terror.
* Jerome matter of factly asks a receptionist to tell her boss he's in. She runs off screaming.
-->'''Jerome''': Don't bother calling security, they're sort of...''(the woman screams off-screen)'' headless.
* The Riddle Factory. As in, the Riddler has set up his own ''game show'' promising cash to whoever can solve riddles which is the perfect insanity job for him.
* The punishments on the wheel include "having a live barracuda stapled to your face" and "sack of rabid rats".
-->'''Riddler''': My personal favorite!
* When Fries raises his hand, Jerome tells him to "put all questions on ice until the end".
* This exchange when Jerome holds Jeremiah hostage:
-->'''Jerome''': Get any closer and I splatter him! I'm gonna splatter broski!\\
'''Gordon''': No you won't. If you wanted him dead, you would've killed him already.\\
'''Jerome''': Hehehe... ''(deadpan face)'' he's right. I'll see you soon. ''(kisses his brother on the head)''
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4x18 That's Entertainment]]]]
* Jerome actually forces a player of the festival band to play a drumroll for a big announcement.
* Penguin is not thrilled by Gordon telling him he's going to have to pilot a blimp over the river.
-->'''Oswald:''' Steer a blimp? Are you out of your mind, Jim? I don't even drive my own car!
* At the end of the episode, Oswald calls Gordon to ask if someone can get him down. It is hilariously comicbook-y.
** He then proceeds to have a tantrum, including head-banging and screaming, [[SayMyName "JIIIMMMM!"]] as the camera zooms away on the huge 'Gotham' blimp, while Penguin's leitmotif blares.
* Just as Bruce is looking at his cake, Selina pops in to blow out the candles.
-->'''Selina''': For a billionaire, your security is laaaaaaaaaaame!"
* Bruce's birthday party is interrupted by Gordon and company bursting in to ask Bruce if he could be a hostage for Jerome in order to possibly jam the signal on his explosive collar remote and save some other hostages. Alfred blusters and promptly calls the cops out on suggesting Bruce put himself in great danger at the hands of a homicidal maniac who has tried more than once to kill him already. Selina quips, "For once, I agree with Alfred!"
** FunnyBackgroundEvent: While everyone in the room is discussing the hostage situation, Selina casually continues eating birthday cake.
* Jerome characterizes Jeremiah as their mother's favorite because he cleaned his room, did his homework, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick didn't try to kill everyone]].
** During this little speech, you can hear someone in the crowd yell out: "Who cares?!"

[[folder: [[AC: 4x19 To Our Deaths and Beyond]]]]
* Oswald's reaction to Riddler and Lee being together.
--> '''Oswald:''' Oh. My. God. Are you ''kidding'' me?!
* It was Ed's turn to taunt the Riddler.
-->'''Ed:''' "Lee, what am I to you?" Does that sound like you to you? Because to me, that sounds like me.\\
'''Riddler:''' I'm not proud of that phrasing.
* Ra's confronts Barbara on misusing her gift.
-->'''Barbara''': You might have left a "how to" manuel.
* Alfred and Tabitha pretend to be a married couple as a distraction.
* While Selina justifies her actions to Bruce, Alfred repeatedly concedes that she has a point.
** Bruce's anger at Selina seems hilariously misplaced, since she handed over the knife ''at gunpoint''. As in, if she hadn't, she and possibly Bruce and Alfred too would have been shot. Though, in spite of her many good points, she fails to bring this up.
* Barbara stabs Ra's al Ghul with the Balahsi Blade in an attempt to kill him, but it doesn't work this time. Ra's merely responds with a mocking "Ouch."
* Selina teases Bruce about the un-stealthiness of his CoolCar due to its loud engine. Bruce promptly engages the quiet exhaust mode. Selina's look is somewhere between laughing at his geekiness and being impressed.
* Ra's al Ghul [[MomentKiller awkwardly interrupting]] Bruce and Selina's moment. Even more so once he tells Bruce that Selina was right when she said that Ra's likes Bruce, indicating that he'd been creepily watching them for a while.
* The fact that the proto-Batmobile gets ''stolen'' by Babs and Tabitha within days of Alfred giving it to Bruce.

-->'''Penguin:''' ''[[ActuallyPrettyFunny (Impressed)]]'' Yes! That will do!

!!Season 1

[[folder: [[AC: 1x01: Pilot]]]]
* The brutal beating is juxtaposed with Fish talking to Cobblepot about her hair getting frizzy from the rain.
* Butch arguing with Fish's other goons on how to get the best shot for a video in which they execute Gordon. "What are you, a director?"
* Jim and Harvey's CasualDangerDialogue while being strung up in a meat-packing plant by Fish's goons.
-->'''Harvey:''' Hey, Jim. How ya doin?\\
'''Jim:''' You know...could be better. Thanks for trying to save me.\\
'''Harvey:''' Kinda wish I hadn't.\\
'''Jim:''' Eh.
* And after [[spoiler:Falcone saves them]], Harvey parrots his "Yeah, there are rules!"
* The comedian's joke, while dark as hell, is still ActuallyPrettyFunny.
--> '''Comedian''': I always wanted to die peacefully in my sleep, like my father. Not screaming in terror, like his passengers.
* Alfred curtly ordering Bruce to, in his own words, "get his bloody arse off the roof."
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x02: Selina Kyle]]]]
* Even as a kid...
-->'''Gordon:''' What do you want me to do?\\
'''Bruce:''' [[StealthHiBye He wants you to talk some sense into me.]]\\
'''Alfred:''' Haven't I told you to stop creeping up on people like that before? ''It's bloody rude!''
* Harvey asks Captain Essen if Fish is still mad at him and Jim.
* Harvey calling a toast right in the middle of the Mayor's debate with Jim.
* Harvey to Jim: "You're a monkey on a Racehorse." Despite not saying anything in response, it's clear Jim has no idea what that means.
** Jim's disbelieving that Harvey knows anything about women.
* Harvey to suspect: [[spoiler: "That means I can beat you like a bongo drum and Saint Jim here ''won't say a word!''"]]
** That whole scene, inverting the entire GoodCopBadCop routine where [[spoiler:Bullock's doing the beating but being nice about it, while St. Jim is standing there glaring and doing nothing, which is somehow worse.]]
* Extremely BlackComedy, but Oswald's inability to convince the mother of the guy he's kidnapped that his ransom demand is genuine, apparently because of the guy's CryingWolf already.
** Oswald's line about how he's willing to negotiate on the ransom as if he were selling an automobile.
* More BlackComedy. When [[spoiler: Selina scratches the guard's eyes out,]] he screams to one of the child kidnappers that he needs a Doctor. The woman completely deadpan, says the doctor is here and it doesn't look that bad, and then [[spoiler: ''shoots him in the face''.]]
** The poor guy doesn't even realize [[spoiler:he's hearing her clear the gun when it jams first.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x03: The Balloonman]]]]
* Selina is able to swipe Bullock's pen without him noticing.
* Gordon handcuffs Selina to a rail while he looks for the wallet she dropped in the sewer in the first episode. She picks the cuffs with the pen she stole from Bullock and then casually tosses them to him, topping it off by saying "Oh Detective! You're gonna need these".
* Harvey repeatedly pointing out that he's mostly on the Balloonman's side, while the man has a gun to his head.
* Harvey taking a lunch break in the middle of tracking down a suspect, which Gordon thinks is part of the process at first.
* The episode’s quota of BlackComedy is filled when one of the Balloonman’s victims flattens a little old lady who was walking her dog.
** Also the brief TV clip we see of the third victim being lifted up by balloon. He's a PedophilePriest who's wearing his full Cardinal's garb when he's attacked, so the sight of him hanging by his ankle from the balloon looks like something out of a Monty Python skit ("There's another Bishop on the landing!").
* Jim goes for the actual suspect and takes him down in routine fashion, while [[CurbStompBattle Harvey is getting his ass handed to him by the suspect's companion in the background.]] Jim stops things right before Harvey gets a television smashed down on him. Harvey returns the favor with a quick right hook. It's the look on Gordon's face that sells it. Did we mention ''she's a woman?''
* Bruce shows Alfred a news article about the Balloonman. Alfred's only comment is to dryly note that there really are easier ways to kill someone.
* Oswald arriving back in Gotham, witnessing several crimes taking place in broad daylight - and getting fuzzy HomeSweetHome feelings because of this.

--> '''Gordon''': It's a lead. Our only lead.
--> '''Bullock''': Says you.
--> '''Gordon''': Come on, there's no way you can be this lazy.
--> '''Bullock''': Have you ever considered that I might be a better detective than you?
--> '''Gordon''': ''(smiling sarcastically}'' Yeah, I considered it.

[[folder: [[AC: 1x05: Viper]]]]
* The note in the Guitar Player's guitar case at the start: [[BrutalHonesty "Why Lie? I Need Money For Drugs."]]
** And a guy actually puts some money in the guitar case.
*** And then a guy actually puts some ''drugs'' in the guitar case... except that turns out to [[PsychoSerum not be so funny after]].
* After Gordon drags him to a crime scene on hearing an alarm, Harvey Bullock only has one question: Did anyone die? On being told no, he concludes, "Well, we're homicide, and on lunch break," and turns to walk away.
* The episode gets its BlackComedy streak going early with [[spoiler:the guitar player's death via ATM, in addition to his bones crumbling to dust.]] And that's just the start. BloodyHilarious, indeed.
** And a bit earlier, when Gordon and Bullock first learn about the super strength, the JumpCut to the guitar player with the ATM on his back, running down the street like a mad bull.
* Oswald Cobblepot's hilarious reaction when he's asked if he doesn't like the name Penguin.
* Bullock wondered if there was dark and moral problems when he asked the professor on the suspect since he and Jim were told that he made shampoos for a living.
* Bullock asking a murderous professor "What's altruism?" To specify, he has no idea what the word means and is convinced it's a vital part of their case.
** Even funnier? Gordon's exasperated explanation of the word triggers a EurekaMoment about where the killer will target next. So it ''was'' a vital part of the case.
* Speaking of BlackComedy: "Fascinating!"
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x06: Spirit of the Goat]]]]
* Any time Oswald enters Snark Mode.
-->: '''Oswald''': Hi Ma, I'm alive.
** "THERE WAS NO HUSSY!!!"
* Oswald splashing in the bathtub.
* Bullock's failed [[CrossesTheLineTwice joke]] about the word "therapist".
* Bullock telling a brainwashed man to heel after being attacked by surprise.
* Gordon is surprised to learn that Bullock had white knight tendencies when he was partnered with Dix.
-->'''Gordon:''' ...we're talking about Bullock here?\\
'''Dix:''' We're talking about Bullock here.\\
'''Gordon:''' ''Harvey'' Bullock?\\
'''Dix:''' ''[mouthing]'' Harvey Bullock, yeah.
* Nygma "helping" the police archivist by reorganizing everything "laterally," with accompanying hand-motions whenever he says the word.
* As Gordon is being arrested for killing Cobblepot, shouting that he didn't do it, Bullock leaps in to agree, not getting at all that Gordon is admitting to Bullock himself that he ''really'' didn't do it. It takes Oswald himself strolling into the building for Bullock to get it, at which he instantly starts trying to beat Gordon up. The scene basically reads as:
-->: '''Gordon:''' I didn't kill Cobblepot!
-->: '''Bullock:''' That's right, he didn't kill him! ''(Penguin walks in)'' ...YOU DIDN'T KILL HIM?!
* Bullock has been arranging for Dix to get a steady supply of dirty magazines, much to his nurse's disapproval.
* When arresting the therapist, Bullock says she's under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder, coercion and "a few other things we'll probably have to name after you."
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x07: Penguin's Umbrella]]]]
* A completely plastered Bullock brings a prostitute - "Duchess"?! - to Gordon's apartment on his trip to join Gordon's fight against the city's corruption, and insists on sleeping with the woman first. Gordon thinks he's joking at first, then gets a look of pure horror when the two actually head into his bedroom.
** No, seriously, her name's Duchess?!
*** Wait, they used Barbara's bed?!?!
** Furthermore, when Gordon explains his grand plan for taking down Falcone, Bullock has one hell of a retort:
---> '''Bullock''': What, did you sit down with a panel of chimpanzees and a bucket of crack and come up with that one?
** Apparently Bullock has a fetish for playing Marco Polo. Do not get into a pool with him.
* During the face-down at Falcone's mansion, once Falcone has turned the tables and is openly talking about killing Gordon, the corrupt mayor can't get out of the room fast enough.
** Bullock, in the middle of Falcone's monologuing, interrupts with a request for a last drink or a meal.
* Zsasz's angry expression when he realizes Falcone is letting Gordon, Barbara and Bullock go unharmed. Like a spoiled child finding out a parent isn't going to let him enjoy adding to his body count.
** The fact that Zsasz's ringtone is ''Funkytown''.
** Almost every bit of dialogue out of Zsasz's mouth, due to the hilariously deranged expressions he makes. Particularly the way he says, "PLEASE," when ordering the police to leave the precinct.
* Oswald having to explain to Maroni what sound a goose makes.
-->'''Oswald''': Why do they want me back so badly?
-->'''Maroni''': I know why. Because they know I got a stone money maker here! A golden goose! They know it, and they don't want us to have him! Right, Penguin?
-->'''Oswald''': Honk honk!
-->'''Maroni''': ...What?
-->'''Oswald''': "Honk honk". It's what geese say.
-->'''Maroni''': R-right, right, honk honk!
* Oswald's 'sincere apology' to Fish Mooney. [[spoiler: Even better, the apology is actually sincere! He truly doesn't mean disrespect to Falcone! He's just taking the time to wind Fish up!]]
* The mayor confused on Gordon serving an arrest warrant on him with the mayor asking if he's nuts. Bullock tells him that it depends on the perspective.
* Gordon explains to Captain Essen that he plans to just go to just flat out arrest the mayor and Falcone. Essen's response is to ask him if he's insane. Gordon's reply?
--> '''Gordon''': No. ''[[{{Beat}} (Pauses, thinking)]]'' Well, maybe a little. Feels good!
** Just... Just ''look'' at Gordon's face when he says "Feels good!" He looks like he's starting the slow descent into madness.
* Mooney's goon Butch stops a shipment of Maroni's guns, and tells the drivers that they're not letting any of Maroni's trucks through until he hands over Cobblepot. The goon then adds that he's going to have to rough up the drivers, and asks if they'd like to be beaten up or shot.
-->'''Driver''': Why do we have to be roughed up?
-->'''Butch''': So Maroni knows we're serious.
-->'''Driver''': We'll tell him, he'll know you're serious.
-->'''Butch''': ''[frustrated]'' You know what? ''[shoots the drivers in the legs, then walks off looking annoyed]''
** How that scene even happened: Butch ''politely'' kidnapped and tied a [[RefugeInAudacity troop of nuns]] across a bridge underpass to stop the truck. BlackComedy up the wazoo with that stunt.
* Maroni orders Oswald to come to the table he is sitting at with Mooney, remarking that he doesn't have to be afraid, she won't bite him - and then asks Mooney if this is indeed true. She answers with cold silence, as if seriously considering it.

* Mama Cobblepot's homemade rat traps built like dollhouses. So cozy-looking rats might intentionally go in just to use the sofa at least once.
* Gordon's trapped in the office space used for the fight clubs. [[spoiler:Black Mask]] tells the three would-be employees that the rules had changed for this fight: the one to kill war-hero cop Gordon gets the job. Just as Gordon tells the three that they could still walk away from this, [[spoiler:Black Mask]] casually adds, "Oh and a million dollar signing bonus." At which point Gordon has a fight on his hands.
** [[spoiler:Part of what makes the whole thing funny is Gordon's response to the signing bonus announcement: "[[OhCrap Aw, crap...]]"]]
** [[spoiler:By dint of Gordon beating all three, as well as BadBoss Black Mask, doesn't he get that signing bonus...?]]
*** [[spoiler:Since Gordon was not a prospective employee, he probably wasn't eligible.]]
* Bullock, realizing Gordon's done gone run off and got captured again, tries to get the GCPD to get off their asses to help find Gordon. Considering what happened previous episode, Bullock's not getting any takers. So it's up to him to give a RousingSpeech where he admits Gordon's an "asshat" but that he's still a cop, and the Gotham cops ought to help their own. Becomes a Heartwarming moment when the cops - starting with Essen, who apologized earlier to Gordon for her cowardice - relent and help out.
* Bruce failing to convince Alfred to home-school him.
* What does Bruce wanna do after beating up the school bully Tommy Elliott? ORDER A PIZZA!
* At one point in the episode, a pair of policemen see fur coats, a purse and other objects flying out of a storm drain. Curious, they walk over to investigate and out pops Selina Kyle. Her reaction to being caught like this is priceless.
-->'''Selina:''' Hi. [''"What-can-you-do?" look''] A girl's gotta shop.
* Gordon is on edge after all the other cops turned their backs on him last week, and is unusually threatening with a suspect. Bullock adds "I'd give you a good cop routine, but it's not in my playbook."
* Nygma is doing a forensic examination of a body. While recording, having noted the time, date and name of the victim, he pauses and adds in the exact same tone that he had part of a muffin earlier and is saving the rest for later.
** "What do a dead man, a cruise ship and an emu have in common? (holds mike to the dead guy) That's right. [[AntiHumor Nothing.]]"
** What really sells this scene is at the end, when it's revealed that Nygma's not actually allowed to examine the bodies and that he makes a habit of doing this behind the medical examiner's back.
** Later on, we have Harvey Bullock [[RunningGagged walking out on one of Ed's riddles.]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x9: Harvey Dent]]]]
* Selina, watching Bruce test himself underwater: "You are the weirdest kid I know!" Oh, Selina, just you wait...
** The hint to Bruce's future [[CrazyPrepared contingency planning]].
--> '''Selina:''' What, so if someone attacks you with a diving board, you'll be ready?
--> '''Bruce:''' Yes.
--> '''Selina:''' *Incredulous look.*
* The ringtone on the hidden bomb? ''The Final Countdown''. Gotham's criminals may be a superstitious and cowardly lot, but they have a sadistic silly streak as well.
* Bruce's reaction when Selina asks him if he's ever kissed a girl, and asks him if he wants to. He's a stuttering wreck for about ten seconds before Alfred announces it's time for his studies. They way Bruce says "Thank you Alfred" sounds like he's thanking him for getting him out of that awkward situation.
* There's something profoundly hilarious about the fact that the first ever showdown between Batman and Catwoman is [[spoiler: a food fight in his living room.]]
* When Selina, who is staying at Wayne manor, mentions that she's hungry:
-->'''Bruce''': There's plenty of food in the kitchen, and Alfred will be happy to make you-
-->'''Afred''': No, he won't be, will he, because it's not a bloody hotel.
* Lovecraft's completely befuddled face when Harvey Dent reacts to his threat by getting into full scary mode and ''threatens him back''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x10: Lovecraft]]]]
* Selina and Bruce's conversation at the beginning of the episode:
--> '''Selina:''' You want to kiss me?
--> '''Bruce:''' No, thank you.
--> '''Selina:''' No?
--> '''Bruce:''' I would like to, but I can't help feeling you have an ulterior motive. I don't imagine you consider me a suitable romantic partner, so why would you want to kiss me? I don't know.
--> '''Selina:''' [[DeadpanSnarker You think too much, kid]]. I'm just trying to be nice.
--> '''Bruce:''' No offense, you don't strike me as a nice person.
--> '''Selina:''' What do you mean? I'm nice.
--> '''Bruce:''' I don't mean you're not a good person, but you're not nice. You don't care much for other people.
--> '''Selina:''' [[IResembleThatRemark Screw you, orphan]].
* After [[spoiler:his first try at roof-hopping and barely managing to not go splat]], Bruce, very politely, asks Selina to stop running because he's out of breath.
* Alfred, having found Bruce alive at the flea market warehouse, does his best StiffUpperLip response over his desperation to find the boy, saying he can't let Bruce die because nobody else employs butlers anymore in this day and age.
* Just the idea of Bullock teaming up with Alfred during the hunt for Bruce and Selina...
** And how Alfred plays Good Cop during a perp sweat [[spoiler:by simply bribing him with money.]]
** Alfred laying down an insult on Butch, mocking his name [[spoiler:before laying the smackdown on the mobster.]]
* Just as a gun fight goes down: "Am I the only person in this city [[IronicEcho who waits for back-up?]]"
* In a way, this episode marks Bruce [[DatingCatwoman and Selina's]] [[HilarityEnsues first date]] [[MythologyGag on the town]].
* After Selina pulls Bruce away from Ivy:
-->'''Bruce:''' She's just a little girl. Why are you so scared of her?
-->'''Selina:''' Because she's scary! Don't look back!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x11: Rogues' Gallery]]]]
* When Cobblepot is in the holding cell at the GCPD, Bullock [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf4Tqf7RLe0 compares him to a "bonsai tree"]]. Another in the holding cell just asks, "What's a bonsai tree?" With some added laughs to how Cobblepot HeadDesk after hearing that comment against the bars of his cell.
** Just the smooth, sarcastic way Bullock mocks having Pengy in that jail cell.
* Maroni calls a GCPD detective a "mook" for not listening to his request to free Penguin from his cell.
* Just having Bullock in this episode, period. The second he shows up at Arkham on Gordon's phone call for help, almost gleeful in teaming up with Jim one more time.
* Selina breaks into Barbara's (and Jim's) abandoned apartment in order to find Ivy a warm bed and meal. "I'm sure they're gone. There's something smells bad."
** And Ivy later answers the phone. Turns out it's Barbara having been run off by Montoya seeing if Jim's back. Ivy pretends over the phone to be a "friend of Jim's" and getting poor Barbara jealous enough to hang up in a rage.
** Ivy asks Cat to make her something vegan?! TRAITOR...
*** Oddly, Ivy's always been a vegan, as little sense as it makes. Just watch ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''.
* The [[TerribleIntervieweesMontage interrogation montage of the Arkham inmates]] has some funny moments, including...
** When asked if he stole the keys, the inmate just breaks out crying.
** Another inmate just sits there with a messed up look on his face, laughing.
** Another simply sits there petting a teddy bear, before lunging forward and trying to strangle Gordon.
** When told an inmate was a nice boy: "It says here you killed your family with an axe!" Inmate replies "I said 'Sorry'!"

[[folder: [[AC: 1x12: What The Little Bird Told Him]]]]
* Bullock making a deadpan introduction on "The Electrocutioner".
* After Gordon and Bullock find out who The Electrocutioner is after, the show immediately cuts to Maroni at lunch, as he is in the middle of telling all of his goons about a time [[EyeScream he viciously ripped someone's eye out.]] laughing and going on about it as if it were delightfully hilarious. Penguin and the rest all laugh along with him, of course.
* Cobblepot's bad excuse for leaving Maroni to meet with Falcone regarding his mother's heart condition, saying things like "it's her... valves."
* Cobblepot getting electrocuted and blasted across Maroni's restaurant. It happens to him ''again'' later on at the police staton. Again, right as he was about to leave. By the end of the episode, he looks banged up bad enough that you'd be mistaken for forgetting that this was his triumphant moment over Fish.
** The way he springs to life on the stretcher behind Maroni and very loudly states that he has business with Don Falcone.
** [[BlatantLies His weepy, over the top assurance to Maroni that he's not involved with Falcone.]]
--->'''Cobblepot''': I swear on my dying mother's soul, may god strike her down with horrible torments if I am lying!
* The bomb that blasted Maroni and his men. You'd expect some people to die from it, but instead everyone walks out singed and frazzled. It seemed like it was more of a childish prank than an attempt on Maroni's life.
* When taking refuge at the GCPD precinct, Maroni casually makes himself at home by taking someone's chair, plopping Penguin's unconscious body onto a random desk, and ordering a uniformed female cop to get him a coffee.
* Nygma's continued failed attempts at making a good impression on his crush, Ms. Kringle.
-->'''Ms. Kringle''': You left this on my desk.
-->'''Nygma''': It's a riddle.
-->'''Ms. Kringle''': It's a cupcake with a live bullet sticking out of it.
-->'''Nygma''': ... It's a riddle.
-->'''Ms. Kringle''': It's menacing and weird and inedible!
** Though his explanation of the riddle ultimately doesn't make much sense, this is still a funny way of illustrating how Nygma's mind works.
* The Electrocutioner pointing out Maroni to his henchman, who lies unconscious with Cobblepot sprawled on top of him.
-->'''The Electrocutioner''': He's over there, beneath the funny looking fellow.
* It's pretty funny how Falcone shows up to the meet with Fish wearing Liza's little purple flower on his lapel. It turns into a bit of NightmareFuel quickly, but it's still an unusually funny sight.
* [[MommasBoy Falcone raging at Fish for using the affection he had for his late mother against him, referring to her as "My sainted mother!"]]
* Bullock deflating Gordon's attempt to declare the gloves are off in his fight against the city's corruption, as he can only ask over and over if Gordon actually thought he was being subtle before.
-->'''Gordon:''' I'm done being careful.\\
'''Bullock:''' You think you've been careful so far?\\
'''Gordon:''' I'm taking them all down.\\
'''Bullock:''' You think you've been careful so far.\\
'''Gordon:''' The mayor, Falcone, and every dirty cop I know about.\\
'''Bullock:''' You think. You've been careful. So far.
* The priceless look on the Electrocutioner's face when [[spoiler:Gordon takes him down with a cup of water.]]
* Bullock asks if Gordon got "nasty pictures" of him and Loeb from the press.
* After Gordon mouths off to Loeb:
-->'''Loeb:''' Follow me.\\
'''Bullock:''' Real nice knowing you.\\
'''Loeb:''' Bring your friend, Bullock.\\
'''Bullock:''' I hate you. I hate you.

* The encounter between Bruce and Ivy.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x14: The Fearsome Dr. Crane]]]]
* When Maroni tries to give Penguin a SecretTestOfCharacter, he obviously leaves his gun in an obvious bag, and, of course, Penguin grabs it as soon as Maroni leaves the room. Maroni tells him [[SincerityMode that the gun is loaded with blanks.]] [[WhatAnIdiot Penguin tries to shoot him.]]
* Even when Penguin is [[spoiler:about to die via car crusher]], he ''still'' tries to save his skin by calling Maroni's cell. At this point, Maroni is beyond fed up with the little bird's crap. The whole interaction makes it all the funnier. When Maroni is watching the car crusher, he hears his phone ringing and looks at his phone to see it is Oswald and sees him on the phone in the compacting car.
--> '''Maroni''': (Chuckling) You have got to be kidding me.
** Then Maroni's reaction when Penguin ''gets away''.
* When Edward gets caught performing an unauthorized autopsy on a corpse (again) he does a FacePalm with his blood-stained glove.
* Bullock is terrified of the thought of a single Jim Gordon, given what a pain he's been while actually getting laid.
* The sheer surrealness of [[spoiler: Penguin being rescued by a church choir.]] His pouty expression when getting on the bus is priceless.
* Crane's murders fill this episode's quote of BlackComedy:
** The first victim is hung by being thrown down of the roof of a skyscraper. The hanged body is visible can be seen from a room in the building, only the colf in it is too busy cleaning and singing to look out.
** The second victim is seen exiting home, and panicking at the sight of Crane ''holding a small pig in his arms and petting it''. Later, Jim and Bullock (who just had the discussion about Jim being a pain while actually getting laid) barge on Crane's accomplice about to kill him... And after shooting him they notice he's surrounded by pigs, and can only say "What the hell?".
* Ed getting back at the medical examiner for getting him suspended by doing something with his closet. What, exactly? Well, when he opens it, the examiner gets hit by ''the mountain of human arms and legs inside it''. And then he's seen with some in his arms by other cops.
-->"This is NotWhatItLooksLike."
** One of the cops later goes to Essen with one of the arms.
-->"Not now Joe. ''*{{Beat}}*'' Wait. Tell me that's not what it looks like."

[[folder: [[AC: 1x15: The Scarecrow]]]]
* Don Falcone metaphorically telling the Penguin that he needs to sort out his priorities while Penguin assumes he's ignoring the prospect of [[spoiler:Maroni trying to whack him]].
* When Gordon and Bullock discuss the recent murder with Edward Nygma, Bullock takes one of Nygma's chemicals and thoughtlessly attempts to drink it. Edward stops him ''just'' in time.
** Nygma cheerful giddiness in seeing the lovely Leslie Thompkins coming in as the new Medical Examiner, chatting up how "pretty" she is right in front of a flustered - and potentially jealous - Gordon. He also notes that she's much nicer than the former M.E. and lets him use one of the rooms to examine bodies.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnqZGg-uyv8 Oswald Cobblepot meets Edward Nygma]].
* The lone punker slamdancing on his own in front of the rock band at Penguin's grand re-opening of Fish's old club.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x16 The Blind Fortune Teller]]]]
* Barbara goes back to her apartment looking for Jim and and instead finds Selina and Ivy squatting there. After they tell her that Jim has moved out some time ago, Barbara just sits down on the couch and starts chatting with them as if it is perfectly reasonable for the girls to be there.
* Barbara taking fashion advice - trying to win Gordon's attention back - from a couple of street urchins squatting in her apartment.
** Granted, the street urchins are femme-fatales-in-the-making Ivy and Selina. But what does it say about Barbara when pre-teens are more sensible about dating tips than her, a grown woman?
** And she doesn't [[FailedASpotCheck seem to notice that one of them has roughly the same voice]] that she got so upset about a few episodes ago.[[note]] Voices do sound different IRL than they do over the telephone, and Ivy did seem to be putting on a deeper voice than her usual one when trolling Barbara, so it's possible she really wouldn't make the connection. [[/note]]
* Gordon using a snake to sniff out the whereabouts of the circus' missing snake handler. Which kind of borders on genius considering snakes ''do'' have a good sense of smell and the snake would be particular in finding its owner. Still, Gordon has to explain this one to Essen - and the audience, who were all sitting there going WTF?
* Gordon's exasperated expression when the circus he's taken Leslie to for a date breaks down into a riot/fight between the clowns and the acrobats. Why yes, another night arresting more clowns...
* The MythologyGag of meeting Dick Grayson's parents.
** And the FeudingFamilies situation between the two making it so much a ShoutOut to Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet. Over a horse? Even Bullock can't take it seriously.
*** A dispute over a horse-involved incident that occurred ''three generations ago'' (50 to 75 years).
* Bullock uses his keen detective skills to figure out Gordon finally got laid.
* Bullock's reaction upon entering the police station and seeing all the circus people who were brought in for questioning.
* While holding her speech in front of the other prisoners, Fish uses one of them as a pedestal.
* Despite Leslie being the one who invited Jim to dinner, she's the one still mulling over Cicero's words. Until she figures them out, turning them into a lead. A location at the bottom of a bridge. And then she insists on kicking the investigation along by going there. Just after sundown. ''In the middle of dinner''. Jim's expression just screams [[DeathGlare "WOMAN..."]]
** Bonus points to the producers for turning the normally [[MsFanservice pants-messing]] MorenaBaccarin into the most hilariously {{adorkable}} thing EVER.
* When Leslie called out Jim hypocrisy for wanting a woman who share his actions yet (in her words) he wants her to "stay home and bake cookies". Jim said that's not really true...He would want her to stay home to bake any kind of pie.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x17 Red Hood]]]]
* The initial wearer of the hood emceeing the robbery, chattering madly. Gains even more hilarity to comic book fans who know the [[ComicBook/TheJoker identity of the original Red Hood]].
** The elderly bank guard firing practically point-blank range and missing the Red Hood. Lampshaded immediately by Gordon and Bullock, who are told that the guard wasn't wearing his prescription glasses.
** Even before the robbery, as the gang stands outside bickering over whether they should have color-coordinated with the guy bringing the red hood.
* The foolish one [[TooDumbToLive falling victim]] to KlingonPromotion after suggesting that the wearer of the hood should be the leader.
* Barbara returns the favor from the previous episode and tries to teach Selina how to use her appearance as a weapon. Selina asks how well that's worked for Barbara.
* Bullock's effective detective skills not only find the body of the first Red Hood, but the stash of beer in the same fridge.
** "[[RefugeInAudacity What? If I don't, Forensics will!]]" Anyways, he earned that beer.
** '''Gordon''' (takes Bullock's reading glasses to magnify something on the bank tape recording): "Do you see that?" '''Bullock''' (miffed): "No, [[CaptainObvious because you took my glasses]]."
* The cops find an eyewitness to the second robbery, who'll only agree to viewing a lineup if the department clears a bunch of parking fines that his wife nags him over. And after the lineup, complains about his ''mistress'' getting upset if he doesn't show up on time.
** Also, that suspect lineup? Not exactly ''Film/TheUsualSuspects'', was it?
* The name of the gang leader - and the second Red Hood - is [[Franchise/GIJoe Destro]]?
* How does Butch procure liquor for the Penguin's tavern? [[ImpersonatingAnOfficer An IPO caper]] that fools even the Penguin!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x18 Everyone Has A Cobblepot]]]]
* A moment of BlackComedy that doubles as a MythologyGag for ''The Dark Knight''. Cobblepot has the elderly couple that were guarding [[spoiler:Loeb's daughter]] in his club, and tells them he knows Falcone will have them killed for failing him, but fortunately for them , Cobblepot has ''one'' train ticket to Arizona. The husband refuses since they've been married 30 years, but the wife turns on him and strangles him with a table cloth. She then turns around and finds Cobblepot pointing a shotgun at her. There's no train, he just needed their help; [[MagnificentBastard he only has one shell left]]. *bang*
** Just the gleeful way Cobblepot watches the ensuing fight, enjoying the rare wine he just ordered as well.
* When Bullock says Loeb's farmhouse doesn't look like what he expected, Oswald asks if he was expecting a sign that said "Super secret blackmail horde." Bullock shot back saying the last time the three of them went for a car ride, Cobblepot was in the trunk (reference to the first episode) and liked that way better.
* And the uncomfortable polite chatter with the friendly elderly couple living at the farmhouse.
** With Bullock making snide comments about the noticeable thumping of ''some huge raccoon'' upstairs...
* When [[spoiler:Loeb's bird-obsessed crazy daughter]] spies Cobblepot for the first time: "He looks like a bird!" Considering what she ''does'' to birds, Cobblepot might want to reconsider his deal with Gordon to be alone with [[spoiler:Loeb's secret]] for five minutes...
* Gordon and Dent's [[OhCrap dawning realization]] of what's about to go down in the Chinese restaurant.
** There is something both ''terrifying'' AND ''funny'' about being chased by knife-wielding Chinese accountants.
* Nygma's sure the attraction between Ms. Kringle and Flass was not intellectual. Why?
-->"How could it be, with that gorilla?"
* Fish trying to discuss terms with the Dollmaker on being his assistant. He response with whether to have Salsa lessons arranged for the elderlies on a Tuesday. Hers? ....[[FlatNo "No."]]
** The Dollmaker appreciates her [[BrutalHonesty honesty]], but he likes Salsa- so he adds it anyway.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x19 Beasts of Prey]]]]
* Bullock's none too happy that Gordon's taking on extra cases, and confronts Edward Nygma with it. "Question: do you want to work more or work less?" Nygma responds with "Is this a riddle?" So you saw it, boys and girls: Bullock out-Riddled the Riddler.
** "Let me say it in Spanish: No!" A delightful subversion of ElSpanishO.
* Some BlackComedy when the Penguin interrogates the guitar player who apparently seduced the daughter of a bar owner they've been trying to buy over. The {{Mook}} with Penguin suggests shooting the truth out of him. Penguin points out that as a guitar player, the loss of his fingers would hurt more. [[YourAnswerToEverything The mook suggests shooting his fingers.]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x20 Under the Knife]]]]
* Alfred's gleeful ShipperOnDeck attitude when Bruce tells him that Selina is gonna be his date of the charity ball.
** His description of Selina as a "healthy young girl with a penchant for wearing too much leather."
* The nonchalant way Selina tells Barbara that she's going to be Bruce's date at the Charity Ball.
** Followed by a delivery of fancy clothes and accesories for her to chose from for the Ball courtesy of Alfred. Selina is not thrilled at the prospect of having to wear high-heeled shoes. They hurt.
* As Bruce and Selina dance together at the ball, they begin to draw attention from the other partygoers.
-->'''Selina''': Why is everyone staring?
-->'''Bruce''': Well, I ''am'' Bruce Wayne.
* Edward Nygma researching and deducing stabbing patterns...by stabbing watermelons to a pulp.
-->'''Edward''' ''(pretending to talk into a speaker)'': Yum.
** This gag eventually becomes relevant when [[spoiler: [[ChekhovsGag Edward stabs Kris Kringle's boyfriend multiple times in the stomach, killing him]]]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 1x21 The Hammer or The Anvil]]]]
* Nygma's look of exasperation as he's trying to dispose of Dougherty's body and Ms. Kringle interrupts him (and discovers the body parts), as well as his explanation for them, is good BlackComedy.
* Bullock going undercover at the Foxglove sex club, and witnessing the "main attraction" onstage. [[TakeOurWordForIt The viewer doesn't get to see what it is]]--we only hear the sounds of a woman, a man, [[NoodleImplements a whip, a chainsaw, and]] [[BestialityIsDepraved a pig]]--but it's horrifying enough to make Bullock drop his cover immediately.
-->'''Bullock''': Oh hell no. [''voice cracking''] GCPD! Nobody move! [''points at the stage''] Especially you two!

[[folder: [[AC: 1x22 All Happy Families Are Alike]]]]
* Gordon stopping Penguin ''right'' when he's about to kill Falcone.
-->'''Penguin''' ''[frustrated]'': ...Walk away!
-->'''Gordon''': Shut up. You're both under arrest for attempted murder.
* When he's tied up at the mercy of Fish Mooney, Gordon tries to win over Selina (who's joined up with Fish) by giving her a ''very'' [[TheUnSmile insincere smile]]. It does not work.
** Fish gives a rundown of how she's going to kill Falcone, Oswald, Gordon, and Bullock; she tells Gordon she'll keep it simple for him, but ''lets Harvey live!''
---> '''Fish:''' And you? We're cool.
* The shocked look on Oswald's face when he sees Fish alive when they arrives at the old warehouse where Falcone's gang used to resides is ''priceless'', considering he's been relishing in the belief that she was gone.
* In the middle of [[spoiler:Barbara going full AxCrazy on Leslie]], we get a pretty obvious ShoutOut to ''Film/TheShining'' [[spoiler:as Babs batters down the bathroom door to get at Les]]. Bordering more on BlackComedy than pure {{Narm}}.
** The ''Shining'' connection becomes even funnier when you consider a [[Film/{{Batman}} certain other]] [[ComicBook/TheJoker lunatic]] whom Creator/JackNicholson has played.
* The aftermath of the fight when Gordon, Bullock, and Falcone walk on Les [[spoiler: banging Barbara's head on the floor and when Les say Barbs' gone crazy.]] Harvey shouts out that he's called it.

!!Season 2

[[folder: [[AC: 2x01 Damned If You Do]]]]
* Jerome starts hitting on Barbara and asks her what she's in Arkham for. "Killing my parents." "Me too!" While it's true, the way Jerome says it sounds like a guy lying to try and get a girl to talk to him.
* Sionis is in the middle of a story when Zaardon makes his IncomingHam entrance, and barely spares him a glance before continuing.
** Just how blase everyone is about him. When Gordon's booking him:
--->'''Zaardon''': Zaardon will unleash hell upon you all!\\
'''Gordon''': ''[bored as he writes him up]'' That spelled how it sounds?\\
'''Zaardon''': ''[calmly]'' Two [=As=].
* Zsasz repeatedly interrupting Oswald to ask if he can just kill Loeb now, sounding like a kid asking if school's over yet.
-->'''Zsasz''': Do I kill him now?
-->'''Penguin''': [[SarcasmMode No, make him a nice cheese toast]]. ''Yes, kill him now please!''
** Zsasz and Penguin's entire schtick as they're intimidating Loeb. ThoseTwoBadGuys have their psychotic routine practically down to a science!
* And the payoff: a GilliganCut to a choir beautifully singing 'goodbye' to Loeb, while Loeb is sitting there with a shell-shocked expression.
* Bruce's emotional reading of his father's letter is interrupted by his father's pride at his figuring out the code to the secret room was his own name, when Bruce actually resorted to blowing the door up. The sheepish look Alfred gives when Bruce reads that line sells it.
* This gem during the confrontation between Edward and [[SplitPersonality his reflection]].
-->'''Edward''': Stop doing that!
-->'''Edward's Reflection''': What?
-->'''Edward''': ''That!'' Copying me!
-->'''Edward's Reflection''': Dude, it's a mirror. That's how they work.

* Galavan recoiling out of the way when Jerome takes his turn in the RussianRoulette so that he doesn't also get hit by the bullet.
* Tabitha and Barbara amusing themselves by whipping the mayor, and then Tabitha whipping him a final time to make sure he isn't dead.
* Alfred's obvious happiness over being reunited with Bruce after their mutual JerkassRealization has a bucket of cold water thrown on it when Bruce informs Alfred he has to repair the computer.
-->'''Alfred''': Fix it? How on Earth am I going to do that?
-->'''Bruce''': That's not my problem. I'm not the one who broke it.
* Alfred's story about trust told to Lucius Fox gets derailed when Lucius asks what a "kipper" is.
* This, from the opening:
--> '''Arnold''': What should we do with the, uh, spare?
--> ''Jerome ponders the bodies for a moment with a hilariously thoughtful expression, then has a lightbulb moment.''
--> '''Jerome''': Ooh! I know! ''[spray-paints an exclamation mark on the hostage]'' Aaron, would you kindly? ''[genial smile]''
--> ''Aaron tosses the final hostage over the side; the bodies now read 'MANIAX!' ''
* This gem: the Maniax have doused the bus full of cheerleaders with gasoline, and Jerome is igniting the lighter... only it doesn't work. So he...climbs back on board the bus full of terrified hostages: "Hey, anyone got a lighter?"
** He also casually comments how embarrassing it is.
** And during the ensuing fire fight, Jerome eventually runs out of bullets, then tosses the gun aside as if to say "Ah, screw it."
* When Gordon is fighting Aaron in the alley, he tries to hit him with a pipe. Aaron pretty much no-sells it - "Ow." - before [[CurbStompBattle beating the crap out of Gordon]].

-->'''Harvey''': Not to interrupt your weirdly-timed make out session, but...
* An oblivious Alfred spending the fundraiser [[MythologyGag hitting on Lee]], and after he finally sees her kissing Gordon, Bruce insists he didn't know.
** Jim's utter ''WTH?'' face when he starts to realize what's going on, and Bruce's obvious exasperation during Alfred and Lee's polite, yet somewhat clumsy dialogue. Bonus points when you realize that this is basically Bruce meeting Selina all over again, but with Bruce and Alfred's roles completely reversed.
* Everyone mentioning "there's a magician" for the fundraiser, as if it's a highlight. It was... but not for the reason they expected. So much so that Alfred later says [[BlatantLies he always has hated magicians]].
* Oswald's frustration with the Maniax taking all the city's attention, and pondering putting on a crazy laugh himself.
* Jerome covering his eyes before shooting the hostage with the water gun: "Someone tell me if it turns out alright!" Then shooting the apple off the hostage's head with a real gun and demanding applause.

[[folder: [[AC: 2x04 Strike Force]]]]
* Penguin rebuffs the Galavans' request for his services:
-->'''Penguin:''' You need an assassin. This is Gotham, you can find them in the phone book. Under 'A'." [''saucy wink'']
* When Barnes want to talk with Gordon out of office, he calls at Lee's house. Why?
-->"Everyone knows you're banging the M.E."
* Butch tells two campaign workers that he has no idea why the Penguin is assassinating one of the mayoral candidates in her office. He later tells them [[AffablyEvil to think of their loved ones in a nice manner.]]
** And a bit of BlackComedy: just as Butch leaves the office, the last of a run of campaign signs for the candidate finishes on the printer.
* Alfred dropping on Bruce the first part of his training: coming back from school to Wayne Manor on his own. Six and a half miles.
-->'''Bruce:''' "Wait, you... you expect me to-to walk?"
-->'''Alfred:''' "[[DistinctionWithoutADifference No, master Bruce. I expect you to run.]]"
-->[''Alfred jumps in the car and leaves a bemused Bruce with a tracksuit and running shoes in his hands'']
* Edward practicing his attempt at asking Ms. Kringle on a date. His partner? ''A skeleton that appears to be wearing sunglasses''.
* Yes, it takes place before a whole lot of violence, but Zsasz modeling an election pin makes for a pretty funny sight.

[[folder: [[AC: 2x05 Scarification]]]]
* Barnes' reaction when he his raiding party is attacked with a rocket launcher and Harvey's deadpan commentary on it.
-->'''Barnes:''' A damn rocket launcher?
-->'''Harvey:''' Welcome to Gotham.
* The goons doing the money counting are in their underwear. After they're arrested, Garrett tells Barnes that they're asking for their pants back. Barnes wryly notes that the Miranda Rights don't mention anything about pants. Then he thinks a moment and says whoever can tell him where the hell they got the rocket launcher gets his pants back. A moment later, after Gordon and Bullock tell him about The Merc...
-->'''Barnes''': Belay that order. Nobody's getting pants.
* "The Merc", a business that is basically a [=CostCo=] for criminals where you can find anything from explosives to rocket launchers to acid. Only in Gotham.
** With a ''loudspeaker'' offering freaking ''two-for-one deals'', no less!
* A great piece of BlackComedy, right after Joe Pike [[spoiler:blows up into a million pieces when Gordon's bullet hits the brick of C4 in his pants]] Barnes gives Jim's gun the weirdest look:
-->'''Barnes:''' What ''the hell'' are you packing?
* Another piece of BlackComedy -- when one of Penguin's {{Mooks}} informs him that the cops have shut down his counting house, Butch gets an OhCrap look on his face and dodges out of the way, right before Penguin [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown goes to town]] on the poor guy with a fire poker. And then has an EurekaMoment, running off shouting to Butch that he knows how to deal with Theo.
* Nygma approaches Leslie and Gordon about doing a double-date with him and Ms. Kringle. They simultaneously say yes and no, respectively, and Leslie invites them to fondue at her place. Gordon seems more worried about the prospect of the awkward evening than, say, the mob bosses and armed weirdos he faces every day.
-->'''Gordon''': It's our place, we can't leave. We'll be ''trapped''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 2x06 By Fire]]]]
* Galavan's response to Butch's story.
-->'''Butch''': There was a lot of blood. A lot. And he he tried to take another swing and he slipped and fell, and so I just ran. I ran and I ran and then the next thing I knew, I woke up in the hospital.
-->'''Galavan''': Huh.
* Tabitha and Barbara brainstorm attachments to put on the end of Butch's stump, like a mini-chainsaw. They settle on a ''mallet-hand''. When he reports back to Penguin, Cobblepot starts to ask about it and Butch just exasperatedly declares he doesn't want to go into it.
* Alfred distracting Bruce by bringing up a dinner date with Silver before landing a sucker punch on him.
-->'''Alfred:''' Not ready.
* Harvey appealing to the fact that they're both gingers when questioning Ivy.
* The way Galavan calls for Tabitha after figuring out Butch and Penguin's ruse. It's like someone calling for their pet cat.
* For some nice BlackComedy, there's a very tense scene when the detectives are investigating Bridgit Pike's appartment after she [[spoiler: burns her abusive brothers alive.]] Gordon and Bullock are sneaking through the creepy abandoned appartment, with the lack of any people there making it [[NothingIsScarier massively suspenseful and creepy]], up until they discover the [[KillItWithFire scorched]] [[BodyHorror bodies]] of [[spoiler: Bridgit's brothers]] lying on the floor. Bullock steps closer, and [[spoiler: [[NotQuiteDead the nearest one]] [[JumpScare suddenly grabs his leg.]] ]] How does Bullock respond to this? [[spoiler: He completely ''freaks out'' and starts [[ComedicSociopathy kicking the man]] [[CrossesTheLineTwice until he]] '''[[CrossesTheLineTwice dies.]]''' ]]
* Bullock's line afterwards just seals the deal when Gordon [[WhatTheHellHero calls him out about it]].
--> '''Bullock:''' Oh, I'm sure it was my kicks that did it, not the fact that he was ''fried like a taquito!''
* Gordon comes back to find Lee being held at gunpoint by Selina, which they proceed to treat pretty much like a pushy workplace colleague dropping by. There are also ''milk and cookies'' on the table, implying that at some point in the preceding sequence of events Lee made her a snack. One wonders if this was before or after the shotgun came out, either seems possible.
--> '''Gordon:''' Sorry about this, Lee.
--> '''Lee:''' Oh, hey, no problem.
* A guy getting interrogated by Gordon says that female firebugs are "mad rare...like a unicorn or somethin'!"
* Crosses over into Heartwarming: when Bridget asks Selina why she's helping her, Selina responds, "Maybe because you remind me of me... if I was a doofus." Both their smiles are what sell it.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x07 Mommy's Little Monster]]]]
* This exchange:
-->'''Bullock''': I say we wait and see if someone can walk us inside. Try and keep things civil. ''(notices Gordon not paying attention)'' Did I tell you I was thinking about getting a cat?
-->'''Gordon''': ... [[FlatWhat What]]?
-->'''Bullock''': Hey! How are you? Why don't you get your head in the game here?
* When Gordon and Bullock get into a fire fight with Zsasz and his [[{{Mook}} Mooks]] after the latter demands that they leave, they manage to retaliate with ''[[AwesomeMoments machine guns]]''. Zsasz's response is just priceless.
-->'''Zsasz''': ... I'll take that as a "no"!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x08 Tonight's the Night]]]]
* Barbara's nightmare at the start turns into this when a bird flies out of her mouth.
** Just the fact that ''someone'' decided that Penguin should have a pencil moustache, making him look like Creator/JohnWaters.
* Nygma's cheerful nonchalance at disposing of the hunter who stumbled across his burial of Miss Kringle.
--> If I can't make the hole bigger, then I'll make you smaller.
** Then he discovers that someone stole his lunch while he was disposing of the hunter and notes that for the middle of nowhere, this spot of forest seems to see a remarkable amount of foot traffic.
* Lee's bright idea to stop Barbara's attack: ask about Barbara's wedding dress. The best part: ''it works''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x09 A Bitter Pill to Swallow]]]]
* Early in the episode, Bruce is talking with Silver at his home and is trying to con the name of the Wayne Killer out of her, and then:
-->'''Alfred:''' "Right, Master Bruce! On your feet."
-->''*Alfred enters wearing an apron and with two rakes in his hands*''
-->'''Alfred:''' "Bought a lovely couple of rakes from the ironmonger's. I suggest we get outside and get-"
-->[''[[DoubleTake Alfred notices Silver]], [[{{Beat}} stops for a moment]], and hounds her out.'']
* As the first assassin is trying to garrotte Jim in the elevator, the door calmly opens, then closes, as their fight continues.
* Penguin putting up with Edward.
-->'''Penguin''': If you're planning on killing me, can you get on with it? At this point, it would come as a welcome relief.
* Edward and Penguin singing with each other over Chinese food. Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like.
** The scene is just bizarre and maybe a little horrifying, since they're celebrating that Edward was able to convince Penguin that he really does have what it takes to ''start murdering people again.''

[[folder:[[AC: 2x10 The Son Of Gotham]]]]
* Nygma and Penguin's OddCouple relationship.
* Bruce's [[{{Heartwarming/Gotham}} heartwarming]] reveal that the sweet talking words he used on Silver were actually about Selina is followed up with Selina being struck speechless, until she hits the escape button on the conversation by letting him know she'll be stealing one of his cars to get back to town.
* Bullock throws a villainous monk into and through a pillar while underground. Bricks start falling from the ceiling and realizes [[LoadBearingBoss what he's just done]]. He looks at the ceiling and starts begging it to stay up.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x11 Worse Than A Crime]]]]
* When Gordon regains consciousness from last week's hijinks, he finds himself in Nygma's apartment. With Nygma and Penguin playing piano, singing a duet, and generally looking like the odd couple fans have begun to love (Nygmobblepot indeed!). Their smiles once he's awake are what especially sells it.
-->'''Gordon''': (''utterly confused'') What the hell...?
* Nygma discreetly informs Lee about Jim's whereabouts. Of course, being the future Riddler, he does so with a rhyme ("Is your lover man alive? Go to Grundy 805"). Lee merely responds with a FlatWhat expression on her face.
* When Leslie finds them, she reams Gordon out for what he's about to do, saying he's crazy for allying with a "depraved sociopath" like the Penguin. Who is standing six feet away, and protests that [[ImStandingRightHere he can hear her]]. Leslie just snaps at him and tells him to shush as if he was a naughty child.
* Alfred getting tazed in the face by a couple of overzealous cops.
* Penguin's face when Lee reveals she's pregnant.
* Selina showing up to help, Fox asking who she is and Bullock responding "Fox, Cat. Cat, Fox."
* Alfred and Selina's bickering throughout the rescue mission:
--> '''Alfred:''' "How do we know that you're not working with Galavan now?"
--> '''Selina:''' "How do I know you're not a Martian in a rubber suit?"
** Later:
--> '''[[ServileSnarker Alfred]]:''' "I do believe, Master Bruce, that this falls very firmly into the category of "IToldYouSo"."
--> '''[[LittleMissSnarker Selina]]:''' "I told him so too, Alfred."
* Nygma suffering his first compulsion for riddles when asked where Penguin is.
-->'''Fox:''' "Home. So, he's at your home?"
-->'''Nygma:''' "No. Yes. ''({{Beat}})'' Who are you?"
* Bullock struggling to climb the stairs to get to the big fight that's been brewing for half a season. He misses the fight entirely -- only showing up to finish off the last of the villains. Everyone looks at him as he huffs and puffs and just says, "There were a ''lot'' of stairs."
** The fight itself. Around 20-30 cultists wielding nothing but knives charge at Gordon, Alfred, Penguin, Selina, and a dozen or so of Penguin's goons. Who all happen to have high powered firearms on their side. [[ForegoneConclusion It ends about as quickly as you'd expect.]]
* Bruce claiming that he had things well in hand [[BlatantLies and was getting ready to escape]]. The look Selina and Alfred give each other in response to that is ''priceless''.
* Tabitha stands up for Silver when Theo expresses his intent to leave her behind. And then she shoves her backward out of a skyscraper penthouse. (Silver was wearing a parachute, but still.)
* The coroners unbagging Theo's corpse... and revealing an ''umbrella shoved all the way down his throat''. BlackComedy 101, folks.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x12 Mr. Freeze]]]]
* When Gordon asks where you would get supercoolant liquid helium, Edward seriously asks "why do you need it?"
* After Victor freezes a pharmacist in front of a store full of people, it's darkly funny that he gets them to help him load the frozen man into his van as if he was an appliance he'd just bought.
* Bullock's insistence on being proven right about the correct pronunciation of the surname Fries.
* Victor goes to the police to give himself up, and asks to speak with Gordon... only to not be believed, as he's the ''fifth that night'' that came to confess. Quite funny... [[MoodWhiplash At least until he sees that his latest test subject survived]] and he runs.
** When musing on how many people came to confess, Alvarez mused "Must be a full moon". Turns out, it's actually a full moon.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x13 A Dead Man Feels No Cold]]]]
* Bullock complains that he might freeze to death while waiting for Mr. Freeze to show up. He immediately realizes how ironic that would be.
* Freeze's DynamicEntry into Arkham Asylum is met with a bewildered stare by one of the inmates. To top it off, Mr. Freeze pulls back the visor on his spacesuit/icesuit thing and ''smiles'', like an explorer who landed on the Moon.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x14 This Ball of Mud and Meanness]]]]
* [[OneSceneWonder Jeri]], the contact Bruce goes to see to learn the whereabouts of Malone. She strikes the right balance of creepy ''and'' funny, culminating in using a ''mosh-pit'' to subdue Jim Gordon. Plus, with her clown make-up, general attitude and JoiseyAccent, she reminds more than a few fans of [[Characters/BatmanRoguesGalleryPart1 Harley Quinn]], if she aged a few decades.
** Special mention goes to her using a ''mosh pit'' of all things to delay Gordon long enough for Bruce to escape.
** And then followed up by her conversation with Gordon in the interrogation room. Her bored responses and successful efforts to rile him up were made even more hilarious by Gordon's growing anger.
* Bullock's exasperation at Alfred admitting, to a ''pair of cops'', that he was planning on killing Malone.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x15 Mad Grey Dawn]]]]
* "[[ItMakesSenseInContext If you give us the coffee can and close your eyes, you'll be able to fly.]]"
* Nygma's reaction to the [[StepfordSmiler new Penguin]]:
-->"Gonna be totally honest, the new you is creeping me out."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x16 Prisoners]]]]
* The guard who helps Gordon escape asks Gordon to [[MakeItLookLikeAStruggle hit him so it'll look like he tried to stop him]], but adds a request to avoid hitting him in the mouth because he just had his teeth fixed.
* After Oswald rebuffs Elijah's stepdaughter's advances, his stepson matter-of-factly asks if she wants him to [[SorryImGay give it a try]].
* Falcone pointing out that Bullock is committing a faux pas in his presence.
-->'''Falcone''': You know, Harvey, it's very rude to wear a hat indoors.

[[folder:[[AC: 2x17 Into the Woods]]]]
* Harvey "using his connections into IA" to help Gordon get the tape that could point him to who framed him.
* "I saved enough for burgers."
* As the GCPD is preparing to arrest Ed, he bolts... and after 5 seconds he trips and falls face first into the snow.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x18 Pinewood]]]]
* After Barbara's rather dramatic reunion with Jim, Harvey casually comes in carrying pizza and beer. The OhCrap expression on his face upon seeing Barbara is just priceless.
** Even more hilarious is Harvey's reaction immediately after Barbara leaves. He comically crushes the pizza box he's holding repeatedly while yelling for Gordon and trying frantically and fruitlessly to break down Gordon's door.
* Just the sheer fact that Harvey has a "whammy drawer" filled with all sorts of crazy melee weapons, including, of all things, ''a pair of nunchucks''. Upon finding them, Jim just looks at Harvey as if to say, "Really?"
** And Harvey' response. "Oooh, good choice!"
** After Jim leaves, Harvey comments that it's going to be a bad day for Gotham's hitmen.
*** And, as the ensuing montage proves, he's ''right''.
* Barbara's plan to get information out of the Lady didn't impress Jim.
-->'''Barbara:''' I needed the Lady to trust me. It's called a plan.
-->'''Gordon:''' A plan? What if I'd stayed outside?
-->'''Barbara:''' ''(grinning)'' Really?
-->'''Gordon:''' ''(annoyed expression conceding the point)''
* As awesome as Gordon's plan turns out to be, there's something hilarious about him asking ''Bruce Wayne'' how much money he can put together in a hurry.
* Butch's nonplussed reaction to Tabitha kissing a sleeping Barbara. "Huh."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x19 Azrael]]]]
* Edward convincing everyone in his cell that he's conversing with a ghost named Lucy. It's just two whole minutes of pure Nygma hamminess.
* Hugo Strange decides to put Galavan's skills to the test. Providing him with a metal chest, he orders Galavan to kill Helzinger using whatever weapon it encases. He then proceeds to knock Helzinger out ''with the chest''. Strange ends up slack-jawed with surprise.
-->'''Hugo Strange''': ...Not exactly what I had in mind, but good enough. Try ''opening'' the chest, my son.
* When Edward enlists his fellow Arkham inmates to fetch him things that'll help him [[spoiler:find Hugo Strange's secrets]], one of them gets him a fly swatter, even though he specifically asked for a bug zapper.
-->'''Edward''': What is this?
-->'''Norton''': It's a fly swatter!
-->'''Edward''': I can see that it's a fly swatter. I didn't ask for a fly swatter, I asked for the bug zapper in the kitchen.
-->'''Norton''': What's the difference?
-->'''Edward''': The difference is that one has a black light that emits ultraviolet energy, and this is ''leather on a stick''!
-->'''Norton''' ''(defensive)'': They both kill flies!
* Strange's supremely irritated "What is it?" when a phone call pulls him away from Galavan.
* Peabody is in full ServileSnarker mode in this episode. Her "YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe" expression when Strange starts on his Saint Dumas shtick must be seen to be believed.
** Her unhelpful aside when Strange presents Galavan with what he claims is an AncestralWeapon passed down for generations.
-->'''Peabody''': Generations? That sword was made yesterday.
-->'''Strange''': I know.
* Barbara's slide back into insanity is played for laughs, due to Butch and Tabitha's reactions to it.
-->''Barbara appears above Butch and Tabitha wielding a cleaver with a crazed look''
-->'''Barbara''': Do we have any limes?
-->''cut to Butch, looking scared, and Tabitha, who doesn't react''

[[folder:[[AC: 2x20 Unleashed]]]]
* Selina and Nygma's banter while in the vents of Arkham.
** They immediately recognize each other, but don't remember each other's names:
--->'''Selina:''' Forensics guy!
--->'''Nygma:''' Street trash girl!
** When Nygma asks Selina if she knows how to pick a lock, she gives him a look that says "Have you ''met'' me?"
* Butch's frustration when Gordon and Bullock [[SwissCheeseSecurity just walk right into his headquarters]]:
-->'''Butch''': [[LampshadeHanging Do I even have security?!]]
* Penguin's hilariously casual dismissal of Azrael:
--->'''The Penguin:''' I, for one, do not buy this whole "Uber-Villain" thing. If he wants to [[HellbentForLeather wear leather,]] [[DracoInLeatherPants he should just wear leather]]! This is Gotham, nobody's gonna care!
* Combined with [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Awesome Moments]], the part where Penguin just casually strolls through the gates of Wayne Manor after Jim, Alfred and Bruce have ''all'' just finished trying to kill Azrael, and failed. His threat to Galavan with his umbrella just seals the deal.
-->''' The Penguin''': My last one got stuck in your throat, so I'm thinking about shoving this one [[AssShove somewhere else]].
* The assorted reactions when Butch [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill hauls out a rocket launcher]] to deal with Azrael/Galavan, made doubly so by the music accompanying the scene.
-->'''Azrael/Galavan:''' [[OhCrap Ohhh...]]
-->''Gordon, Alfred and Bruce--who are standing '''behind''' Galavan--take one look and dive for cover.''
** Penguin then says "You're welcome!" before leaving with Butch, who casually waves goodbye to them.
-->'''Butch:''' Goodnight fellas!
** Alfred waving back after Penguin and Butch as they walk off.
* Nygma spends the entire episode crawling through Arkham's air vents in order to escape. At the end, he finally makes it outside... [[ButtMonkey and is then apprehended by the cops just moments later]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x21 A Legion of Horribles]]]]
* Bullock's press conference. Just...Bullock's press conference.
-->'''Reporter:''' Can you confirm that the man known as Azrael was, in fact, disgraced Mayor Galavan?
-->'''Bullock:''' Well, seeing as how the suspect is now [[CrossesTheLineTwice meat dust]], a positive identification would be difficult.
-->'''Reporter:''' How long do you plan to serve as Acting Captain?
-->'''Bullock:''' Until literally the second someone else wants the job.
-->'''Reporter:''' Who killed Theo Galavan?
-->'''Bullock:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Which time?]]
** And when he explains that the killer calling himself "Azrael" was "blown up," by unknown assailants, it cuts to one of the reporters who looks up from his notebook with a look that says, "Seriously?"
* When Lucius and Bruce are being held prisoner by Nygma at Strange's request, Lucius remembers him as the forensic scientist with the funny name. Ed is clearly less than pleased at the description.
* When [[spoiler:Fish Mooney]] tries to get a guard's attention [[spoiler: she]] inadvertently demands him to make a grilled cheese sandwich. The whole sequence is... interesting to say the least.
-->'''[[spoiler: Mooney:]]''' Why did you make me a sandwich?
-->'''Guard:''' I... don't know.
* After Strange completes [[spoiler:Clayface's transformation into Gordon]], a shocked Gordon shouts in his direction, "You son of a bitch!" [[spoiler:Clayface]]'s response is a more positive-sounding and rather jovial "Son of a bitch! Nice to meet you."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 2x22 Transference]]]]
* In a BlackComedy sort of way, there's Penguin putting his [[DeadGuyOnDisplay dead stepmother's head on display]], with Barbara giving him advice on how to do so like it's a work of art, while a creeped out Butch watches.
-->'''Penguin''': What do you think, Butch?
-->'''Butch''': ...Interior design's not really my thing.
* [[spoiler:Clayface]] pretending to be [[spoiler:Gordon]] for a good chunk of the episode is quite an amusing sight, from his cheesy smile to his gruff voice and snarky personality. And ''no one realises'' he isn't really [[spoiler:Gordon]] until Barbara points it out.
* Fish getting a YourMom joke in at Peabody's expense.
** Later, when Strange is trying to win her over, she tells him that he'd "have made a good pimp".
* Lucius and Bruce get gassed and pass out. When they wake up, they're in a room with the similarly drugged Gordon, none too sure if they're alive. Lucius complains, "wow, that was ''unpleasant''!" and the three sort of bumble about and try to pull themselves together. Gordon offers a heartfelt apology for making his vow to Bruce, which leads to Lucius saying this gem: "Uhh... what kind of drugs did they give you?!"
* When coercing Nigma to help Gordon and Lucius find [[spoiler:the bomb]] Nigma playfully asks what he gets if he does help.
-->'''Gordon''': You get to live.\\
'''Nigma''': ''[{{beat}}]'' Fair enough.
* Gordon and Lucius [[spoiler:shorting out the bomb at the absolute last second with a cup of water,]] as per Peabody's instructions. Then it turns out she was [[spoiler:asking for a ''drink'' of water]]. Cue two hilarious "Holy Crap, we almost died because of a hunch!" looks on the men's faces.
** Additionally, look at Peabody when Gordon is getting the water [[spoiler:to disarm the bomb.]] She actually expects that he's getting it for her and is mildly disappointed when he walks past her.
* Penguin panicking and fainting at the sight of [[spoiler:Fish back from the dead]].
* At the end, Gordon leaves Harvey in charge to find Strange's monsters while he leaves Gotham to find Lee. When he gets into a car and drives off, Harvey immediately realizes...
-->'''Harvey''': ...That's my car. Th-that's my car!
** And his parting advice to Harvey? If he's the boss, he should get a haircut.
* With Hugo Strange locked up and the mystery behind who had the Waynes killed solved, Alfred notes that Bruce should be about ready to move on with his life...until Bruce says he learned about a secret council controlling Gotham City. All the poor butler can do is roll his eyes and mutter "[[HereWeGoAgain Bloody hell...]]"
* If that really was [[spoiler: Jerome]] getting off the bus in the end, he might have just demonstrated his [[spoiler: JokerImmunity]] for the first time!

[[folder:[[AC: 3x1 Better to Reign in Hell...]]]]
* During his fight with someone who may well be [[spoiler:Killer Croc]], Gordon punches him in the gut [[NoSell for no effect]]... On his opponent, that's it: the way he slowly took his fist back and looked at it while saying "Ow..." indicates that it had some effect on ''him''.
* After Barbara beats up the gangster who tried to muscle her out of her bar, she cracks up at his inability to say the word "club" with his broken nose.
* Butch complains about working with Barbara.
-->'''Butch''': Hello? She's crazy, she was in Arkham!
-->'''Oswald''': Hello! So was I!
* Butch is brooding over how much seeing Tabitha with Barbara hurts. Selina comes up to him and leaves after making brief conversation, after which when Penguin comes back up to him.
-->'''[[AllLoveIsUnrequited Butch:]]''' Just seeing her kills me, you know?
-->'''Penguin:''' Get over it. And that child just stole your wallet.

* Jim's "Ugh, ThisIsGonnaSuck" expression when he realizes he has to see Barbara to find out where Selina is.
* Barbara telling Vale "Jim and I were engaged but I broke it off" and he just gives a "riiiiiiiight" look at her.
** The best part is, she's right! Technically, she ''did'' break it off with him. Even though she later wanted him back.
* Barbara's bizarre dream:
-->'''Barbara''': You were in a terrible accident and you lost your legs and I had to push you around in a giant baby carriage.
-->'''Jim''': Good to see you, Barbara.
* Gordon telling Fish he's useless as a hostage, since if she kills him, Barnes would probably just thank her.
* This parting exchange:
-->'''Fish''': Harvey, [[NothingPersonal no hard feelings?]]
-->'''Bullock''': Fish, screw you!
-->'''Fish''': Fair enough.
* Strange's clear panic at Gordon tossing his life into the bargain with Fish.
* Fish asks if Penguin is really going to kill her after she spared his life. He replies with a cheerful "Pretty much!"

* Tetch uses Barbara in his hypnotism act, and picks the worst possible way to do it: [[{{Yandere}} making her think she loves him, but he doesn't love her back.]] Tabitha gives a casual "Oh dear" as she sees where this is going.
* Former mayor James, trying to worm his way back into the office after the disasters of
[[Funny/GothamSeasonOne Season Two but dealing with a politically ambitious Penguin, calls Cobblepot in for a face-to-face at a quiet little Italian restaurant. They both know the dangers of meeting in a place like that... which is why James hired three gunmen to pose as the wait staff to aim guns at Penguin when he moves like he's going to attack...

* Oswald suddenly has an orange-tinted face in this episode, for literally no reason except to increase his resemblance to Donald Trump.
** Actually, that's a bit of FridgeBrilliance. In the old days of TV, orange makeup made a [[RealityIsUnrealistic face look white.]] Given that Gotham is a bit of an AnachronismStew, they probably use outdated TV cameras.

* At his constituent meeting, Penguin mentions his mother's murder and throws a brief glare at Butch, who did play an indirect role in said murder. Butch responds by innocently looking away.
* Nygma's return to the GCPD and his interactions with both Lee and Lucius.
-->'''Lucius''': You are insane.
-->'''Nygma''': ''Was'' insane. I have a certificate.
* There's something funny about the entirety of the scene where Bruce and Selina are talking on the roof. For two seasons, they've been in the worst possible places at any given time, through a combination of bad luck and impulsiveness. In this episode, they apparently missed the whole drama for the sake of Bruce confessing that he likes her.
** There's also Bruce getting confused. Selina walked away with a smirk.

-->'''Gordon''': Okay. ''([[{{Troll}} hangs up again]])''

* Jim is hallucinating about being locked in an elevator with Barbara, who's wearing a NaughtyNurseOutfit. She reprimands him for its corniness, since this is his imagination. So he imagines her dressed as a nun instead.

* The Penguin hearing from Gabe that he likes librarians [[spoiler:when he sabotaged Isabella's car.]]
* When Bullock meets back with Gordon after searching the party for Dr. Symon:
-->'''Bullock''': No luck. He must have skedaddled.\\
'''Gordon''': ''*sees the drink in Bullock's hand*''\\
'''Bullock''': I thought he might be at the bar.\\
'''Gordon''': Uh-huh.

[[folder:[[AC:3x9 The Executioner]]]]
* The antiquity dealer saying he has an eye for beauty... [[MyEyesAreUpHere Just as he looks at Ivy's cleavage]].
* Selina's incredulous look when the ''adult'' woman in her house reveals herself as Ivy.
** She tells Bruce she knows it's her as "she came and ''immediately'' ate all my food."
* Ivy explains that "when you look like this, guys just come up to you and give you stuff. Half the time, you don't even have to steal it." When Bruce says Ivy "looks nice," Selina gives him a ''Seriously?'' look.
* When Ivy realizes that Bruce and Selina have hooked up since she last saw them:
-->'''Ivy''': Oh my God. Are you two a couple now?
-->'''Bruce/Selina''': Yes/No.
-->'''Bruce''': (''confused'') We're not?
-->'''Selina''': ...I am not doing this right now!
* Ivy's pitiful attempts to negotiate a price for the emerald with Bruce.
* Oswald trying to convince Edward to move on from Isabella.
-->'''Oswald''': Ed, I, as much as anyone, know how hard it is to lose someone, [[CallBack even if you've only known them for like... a week]].

* This gem from Barbara:
--> '''Babs:''' "Hello, comrade."
--> '''Olga the maid:''' "'Comrade' is not Russian word."
--> '''Babs:''' "Oh shut up, of course it is!"
* Penguin has just lied and told Barbara he has no idea where Butch or Tabitha are. The next second he is urgently on the phone with Ed, who is about to torture Tabitha and Butch, who Ed mistakenly thinks killed Isabella, when it was really Penguin himself:
--> '''Ed:''' "I need to work through my grief, my way."
--> '''Oswald:''' "Of course, and I support you. Any chance you could work through it a ''smidge'' faster?!"
** And after Ed gets off the phone:
--> '''Ed:''' ''[To Tabby and Butch]'' "He can be so self-centered."
* Gordon and Bullock, as usual:
--> '''Gordon:''' "I need you to keep an eye on Mario. ''[Bullock turns toward Mario]'' What are you doing?"
--> '''Bullock:''' "Keeping an eye on Mario."
--> '''Gordon:''' "Don't look at him!"
* As well as, Selina and Bruce, about to enter the bad guy lair:
-->'''Bruce:''' "There's no way of asking you to stay here that doesn't end with you yelling at me, is there?"
-->'''Selina'''(matter-of-factly): "No"
* Both Barbara and Ed having a "barf" reaction to Tabby and Butch being an item.

[[folder:[[AC:3x11 Beware The Green-Eyed Monster]]]]
* Nygma's absolute stunned reaction to realizing how Oswald is in love with him and Barbara hilariously mimicking how he bumped off Isabella.
* Jervis acting like a DeadpanSnarker when being interrogated by Gordon about who he infected with Alice's blood:
--> '''Jervis:''' "So, I've been quiet about it all this time, and now I'm going to help you because we're such good friends?"
--> '''Gordon:''' "'Because I could make your life here very uncomfortable."
--> '''Jervis:''' "More uncomfortable than [[CallBack having Captain Barnes next door screaming "guilty" all hours of the night]]?"

[[folder:[[AC:3x12 Ghosts]]]]
* Bullock's reaction to the Jerome worshipping cult:
--> '''Bullock''': "Okay, weird"
--> '''Gordon''': "But not illegal"
** And after Dwight picks up a microphone which turns on a lightbulb next to it:
--> '''Bullock''': "Okay, weirder"

[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC:3x13 Smile Like You Mean It]]]]
* Jerome, upon (finally) coming back to life, decides to get his revenge on Theo Galavan for killing him, only to hear that he had already been killed. Disappointed, he asks who was responsible, only for Lee to bluntly let him know that he died ''twice''. After complaining about Galavan always upstaging him, he settles for [[ItMakesSenseInContext asking where his face is]].
** Also, Jerome turns out to be a ShipperOnDeck for Jim and Lee.
** He also sounds genuinely disappointed when he finds out that he failed to kill Bruce the night that he died.
-->'''Jerome''': So when I was last, y'know, ''alive'', I was about to kill Bruce Wayne. I suppose I didn't manage to... ''(Lee subtly nods "no")'' ...no, right.
** Jerome also not so subtly asks if he and Lee ever had sex, and she responds with a disgusted "Oh GOD no"
-->'''Jerome''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint What, ginger's not your type?]]
** The funniest part is probably the fact that Lee sounds so ''nonchalant'' about it, like this is just another part of her ordinary daily routine.
* When Lee suggests to Jerome that perhaps he's dreaming and if he shot himself he might wake up, Jerome does put the gun to his head for a second before waving it off as a bad idea.
* Even Gordon thinks the real Jerome is more entertaining than Dwight pretending to be him is.
-->'''Gordon''': For the record, you're doing one thing Jerome never did: boring me. ''[hangs up]''
** Heck, all of Dwight's attempts to upstage Jerome can come off as hilarious, with Jerome himself getting annoyed.
* Even with as nuts as the Joker gang is, Dwight's attempt to pass himself off as Jerome by wearing his face quickly has them all confused and calling bullshit.
* While he callously [[KickTheDog runs over a random pedestrian]] in a police car, Jerome has the decency to sheepishly [[BlackComedy shout "Sorry!"]] afterwards. What makes it funnier is that he sounds [[AffablyEvil genuinely apologetic]].
* At the beginning of the episode, two guards are playing cards, and one says, "Joker's wild!" Yes, yes [[{{Pun}} he certainly is]]...
* When told that there is likely a mole within the GCPD, Harvey angrily sweeps his desk, accidentally knocking over a lamp in the process. Cue beat, with Harvey himself looking embarrassed, before saying that he was going to replace said-lamp anyway.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC:3x14 The Gentle Art of Making Enemies]]]]
* When Bruce pushes Jerome during an attempt to hit another guy with a ball, he throws it at the bullseye and cries foul as if the minion nearest to him was a "zebra".
-->'''Jerome''': Foul! ...He pushed me! Did you see it?
* Butch and Tabitha's jabs at each other throughout the episode, from Tabitha pointing out that Butch knocking out Oswald meant he had to carry him, to the two bickering over which one of them could get Oswald to give up Nygma's location.
* In a [[BlackComedy morbidly humorous]] sort of way, Jerome shooting a cowboy dead for interrupting his show with annoying yells.
-->'''Jerome''' ''(through a bullhorn, visibly annoyed)'': '''SHUT UP!'''
* In the mirror room, Jerome challenges Bruce to a "man y mano" fight and eggs him on to "be a hero". When Bruce sneaks up from behind and tackles him to the ground, the latter complains, "What kind of hero tackles someone from behind?!"
** There's also Jerome's hilariously [[ComicBook/TheJoker Joker]]-esque fighting stance: he cartoonishly raises his fists while going "Put 'em up! Put 'em up!"
* After Jim takes down Jerome by punching his face off, the latter merely reacts with a simple [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction "Ow."]] before falling to the floor.
** Then there's Jim's [[OhCrap expression]] after he punched Jerome.
** And of course, Harvey says what we're all thinking and lampshades it.
--->'''Harvey:''' "At least you get to say you punched a man's face off. That's something, right?"
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC:3x15 How The Riddler Got His Name]]]]
* A lot of Nygma's interactions with Hallucination!Penguin.
** When the hallucination first shows up, Ed complains about him dripping water and seaweed all over the couch.
-->'''Hallucination!Penguin''': You're the only person I know who complains about his hallucinations making a mess.
** At one point, the hallucination breaks out in a song and dance number, much to Ed's bafflement.
** Since Hallucination!Penguin appears as Oswald would after spending several weeks at the bottom of the sea, he also has seaweed and other plants growing on him. At one point, he picks a live crab off his shoulder with an amused look on his face.
* Nygma's idea of sending clues to the GCPD? Singing telegrams ''dressed as fruit''. The fact that the GCPD [[SeenItAll barely]] [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight react]] to it just makes it even funnier.
* Lucius and Leslie's nonchalant reactions to finding Harvey's stolen badge inserted into a corpse's stomach. Culminating in Lucius forgetting he's holding it and attempting to leave the room with the blood-covered evidence.
-->'''Lucius''': Thank you, doctor. ''(Heads for the door)''\\
'''Lee''': Uh...\\
'''Lucius''': ''(Hands her the badge)'' Thank you, doctor. Sorry. I know. Thank you.

* Gordon says there's one person outside the Court of Owls' control he can ask to investigate them. Bullock immediately starts shouting not to do it, followed by a GilliganCut to Barbara on her throne, collecting tributes while "Love Hurts" plays.
* Ivy reminds us that despite appearances she's still mentally a kid, as before helping Oswald she makes him promise to be nice to her. Oswald makes a face like he's struggling to conceive how he landed in this position.
* Bullock's reaction to the Court of Owls.
-->'''Bullock''': A secret organization that runs Gotham? Someone should tell them they're doing a terrible job.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC:3x17 The Primal Riddle]]]]
* Bullock noting the Hamlet actor the Riddler murdered. "I guess it wasn't...meant to be." Gordon's look at the joke is far funnier.
* The Mayor brushing off the Riddler's threat by pointing out that there are so many corrupt politicians in Gotham, the riddle could have been about anyone.

[[folder:[[AC:3x19 All Will Be Judged]]]]
* When Oswald is put into a cage next to Ed, Ed slaps him on the forehead to make sure he's not another delusion.
* Oswald and Edward acting like five-year old babies while locked up, like calling each other names or laughing when the other gets hurt.
* Oswald scaring away the homeless people.
* Bullock yelling about Barnes going missing.
-->'''Bullock''': There's a nutjob running around in a leather suit with an axe for an arm! I know this is Gotham, but come on!
* Bullock's reaction to finding out about the Bruce clone is to just sit in a chair and [[INeedAFreakingDrink clearly wish for a drink]].

[[folder: [[AC: 3X20 Pretty Hate Machine]]]]
* Ivy tells Oswald Selina knows where Firefly is and was asking questions about their men and guns and "duh, we're all alone!"
-->'''Oswald''': You idiot! It's a trap!\\
'''Ivy''': No way! Selina would never do that... Well, unless they offered her money...

[[folder:[[AC: 3x21 Destiny Calling]]]]
* In the opening scene, we see Gotham plunge into sheer anarchy as its denizens go mad from the Tetch Virus. Amidst the chaos, two infected little girls are shown chasing a man, violently demanding that he buy their cookies.
** The opening primarily focuses on a little old lady who has been infected with the virus. She holds up a bank for her life savings (which they probably [[AcceptableTargets screwed her out of]]). It seems pretty scary- until the GilliganCut to her walking down the street with a bag full of cash, perfectly happy and content, while the city tears itself apart behind her.
* After being cured, Jim goes into Harvey's office. Harvey is a bit sour due to Jim pushing him into a train earlier. No, ''two'' trains. According to Harvey, he felt like a "freakin' cartoon".

[[folder:[[AC: 4x01 Pax Penguina]]]]
* The sheer RefugeInAudacity of Penguin ''licensing'' crime.
* The band at the wedding is playing a retro cover of [[MemeticMutation "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley]]. The show's not even trying to pretend it's not trolling the audience anymore.
* Bruce pulling his first Batman-style StealthHiBye on Gordon, in the middle of the GCPD in broad daylight. Gordon's confusion is priceless.
* Zsasz is back, and as usual is worth some BlackComedy laughs:
** He shows up to stop the unlicensed stick up of a wedding reception, shooting off the finger of one of the crooks to scare them away. And then, when the bride tries to thank him, he says not to bother, since the heavily armed men with him ''do'' have licenses.
** His back and forth with Tabitha when he shows up at her and Selina's rundown apartment.
-->'''Zsasz''': Didn't you use to be rich?\\
'''Tabitha''': That was before your boss stole my club.\\
'''Zsasz''': Well, you killed his mother and tried to kill him, so... call it even?
* Oswald does a big speech to the frozen Ed, noting how he now feels trapped and "I wonder which one of us is frozen." Naturally, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Ivy points out it's Eddie.]]
* Alfred's exasperation at the latest round of TheMasochismTango between Bruce and Selina -- her making him balance on a rooftop ledge with her to deliver his apology for being a jerk last time they talked.
-->"You two! Why can't you meet at the bloody cinema like normal teenagers?"
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4x02 The Fear Reaper]]]]
* Bruce explaining he got caught simply because he naturally assumed the Gotham cops would ''never'' respond to an alarm so quickly.
* Barbara brushing off Tabitha and Selina's shock at her being alive.
-->'''Barbara''': [[DeathIsCheap It's Gotham.]] Next time, check for a pulse.

--> "You killed his son! Italians don't forget that sort of thing!"
* When Lucius Fox delivers the first of the proto-Batman suits, he keeps mentioning the equipment is for "rock-climbing," even mentioning the two way radio installed to keep in touch whilst "climbing rocks."

[[folder: [[AC: 4x03 They Who Hide Behind Masks]]]]
* When he discovers Ed's body is missing, Oswald freaks out. Victor is less upset as he takes in the massive hole in the ice block.
-->'''Zsasz''': I don't know. I think it opens up the room.
* Also, how very pleased with himself Zsasz sounds to have nailed the "frog in a blender" riddle.
* Just the insane humor of ''Nygma'' being "rescued" by a nutcase stalker who was also a former grade school classmate.
* Bruce's pathetic attempt at a "tough guy" accent at the docks.
* Bruce hamming it up at the auction. A theme of the episode is Bruce learning to wear masks, whether they be actual masks or metaphorical ones in the form of new personas. He's learning now how to play Bruce Wayne.
** Bruce and Barbara want the same knife, and twice, Bruce outbids Barbara by one dollar. The third time, he outbids her by one cent.
** And the Penguin deliberately cutting off Barbara's rival bid ''just'' because she annoys him.
* Selina comes into Wayne Manor's study to find Bruce in the dark.
-->'''Selina''': Why are you sitting alone in the dark?\\
'''Bruce''': I was expecting someone else.\\
'''Selina''': Like who?
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4x04 The Demon's Head]]]]
* Ed sends Oswald a message in the form of two homeless men, who rap the riddle. Victor bops his head along with the tune.
** There's also Victor repeatedly whining about wanting to torture the men. Finally, Oswald gets so annoyed he lets him.
** Later, when Nygma shows up to confront Penguin, he's ambushed by Freeze, who casually asks him if he wants to be frozen in the same pose as last time, or something new, as if discussing a haircut.
** Oswald outright telling Nygma that his riddles suck.
* Oswald and Victor find a trio of mobsters wanting to throw in with Falcone.
-->'''Oswald''': Victor, how many graves did you dig?
-->'''Victor''': Two. But they're roomy.
* Gordon getting rid of Anubis, Ra's vicious dog-man, with an absurd yet logical action: Throwing him a dinosaur bone to fetch, [[DestinationDefenestration out a window]].
** When Gordon demands Anubis' handler state who sent them, the man responds viciously in another language.
-->'''Gordon''': [[DeadpanSnarker Thanks for clarifying.]]

[[folder:[[AC: 4x05 The Blade's Path]]]]
* #4 on Penguin's "To-Do" list is "Kill Sofia Falcone". When she comes to him to offer him an alliance, he tells his employee to add a question mark to the end.
* Ed tries to rob a pharmacy and screams about how they don't have anything for them. The tied-up clerk notes that "a pill to handle your brain being frozen and unfrozen? That's kind of specific...."
* The clerk claims he has some experimental drugs hidden away. Ed looks for them just in time for the clerk to ram a quill pen into his hand. He then grabs Ed's gun...which turns out to be fake. He tosses it into Ed's ribs causing him to yell and stalks out, adding that the pills are just sugar.
* Almost all of Ed's interactions with Solomon Grundy, the newly zombiefied Butch, are hilarious and oddly touching:
** After his EpicFail of robbing a pharmacy, Ed downs the sugar pill bottle he took, then runs into Grundy. He shouts, "''Butch?!''" in a YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe tone, tries to goad him to go after Barbara instead, and comments on his UndeathlyPallor. Grundy gives him a TapOnTheHead and remarks, "Man talk too much." After waking up the next morning, Ed first assumes the incident was a freaky trip from the pills before Grundy shows himself again.
** Ed rants, heartbroken, that he is too damaged himself to help Grundy remember his past, Grundy finds a way to cheer him up: A stolen hotdog cart.
-->'''Ed''': Well, I am feeling a ''bit'' peckish.
** Ed being proud of himself for thinking of something mundane as to throw water on Grundy when he gets lit on fire, and Grundy thanks him with a BearHug.

[[folder:[[AC: 4x06 Hog Day Afternoon]]]]
* Penguin's annoyance when Zsasz keeps referring to his time with Sofia as a "date".
* Due to his brain damage, the only threat Nygma can give Lee is a vague promise of doing "something" to her clinic if she doesn't help him. She can't help but laugh in his face.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 4x08 Stop Hitting Yourself]]]]
* Nygma's ridiculously over-the-top Penguin impression during the pre-fight show, complete with a makeshift penguin mask, a cartoonish waddle, and a nerdy, nasally voice.
* Penguin's chief aide tells Barbara, Tabitha and Selina about the mocking in "a terrible commedia dell'arte!" The trio stare at him as if he's speaking Martian.
* Selina can't help giggling at the news of Nygma mocking Penguin in the fights.
* Barbara's amazing OhCrap face upon seeing Butch. Seeing her aboslutely caught off guard for once is immensely satisfying.
-->'''Tabitha''': Do you know what this means?!
-->'''Barbara''': Yeah, it means you owe me an apology for electrocuting me.
* Oswald's "teaching" of how to properly take revenge against the adorable mute sociopath is both endearing and disturbing.
** The way the youth communicates via drawings shows a mind so dark you can't help but laugh.
* Ed mocks Lee's "only thing that stinks is you" line before shooting Firefly.
-->'''Lee''': I get melodramatic under pressure.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:[[AC: 4x09 Let Them Eat Pie]]]]
* However dark and grisly the situation, Pyg's parody of the [[Theatre/{{Chicago}} Cell Block Tango]] is worth a chuckle.
* Pyg reassures Sofia that he didn't harm the children that were suppose to perform for the dinner, because despite appearances, he isn't an animal. And then he oinks like a pig.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4X11 Queen Takes Knight]]]]
* Barbara's "what did you say?!" reaction to learning Sofia slept with Jim.

* Jim goes to a brothel to ask the madam if she's seen Harvey. She tells him how he asked for two very heavyset ladies.
-->'''Jim''': Yeah, that's him.

* The ad for the Siren Club. Barbara and Tabitha are doing hot dancing while Selina is doing some lame hopping with a "please shoot me" expression.
-->'''Barbara''': The Club is back with a passion.
-->'''Tabitha''': Women drink for free while men...don't.
-->'''Selina''': ''(flatly)'' You'll like it. It's nice.
* Bruce's role in the episode is primarily hanging around in the background, [[BecomingTheMask leaning into]] the billionaire brat facade he cultivated as a cover just a few episodes before and making mildly annoying comments everyone ignores.
* All it takes is seeing an annoying redhead causing trouble and driving men crazy for Selina to figure it's Ivy.
* Barbara beautifully trolling Gordon by telling him where to find "the Doc," not letting him know it's Lee.
** Followed by Jim's "oh come ON!" look, first seeing Lee and then realizing Nygma is working for her.
* Jim brings Eddie up to speed on his target.
-->'''Gordon''': Toymaker turned assassin.
-->'''Eddie''': Oh, that is so Gotham.
* Jim and Lee catch up.
-->'''Gordon''': So you're partners with Ed. Why?
-->'''Eddie''': I'm right here.
-->'''Lee''': Why not? He wouldn't have been my first choice but the universe has funny ways.
-->'''Eddie''': Still here.
* Alfred is surprised to find Harvey is now a bartender.
-->'''Harvey''': I love bartending. It involves two of my favorite things. Drinking and ignoring people.

* Ivy uses her new toxins to make an entire family adore her.
-->'''Selina''': So your perfume turns people into your super-fans?

* Bullock showing up as Alfred in Bruce's nightmare. And for some reason, he's petting a chicken.
* When Harper talks of Ivy as "the coolest", Jim automatically calls her a psycho. He then sees every cop in the building glaring at him and Selina confirms this is Ivy's work.

-->'''Jim''': Hold that thought, Harper...we'll be right back.
** He and Selina do a horrible job pretending to love Ivy later.
* Oswald tries to trick Jerome into being electrocuted. When Jerome escapes, Oswald does a hysterical "ah, nuts" pout. He then grabs a spork off a table.

* The "mime-off" between Oswald and Jerome has to be seen to be believed.
* Ivy leaves a brainwashed Lucius to face Jim.

[[folder: [[AC: 4X14 Reunion]]]]
* Realizing Ivy is after Harvey, Jim leads cops to burst in. When they see Harvey laid out on the couch, Lucius groans "we're too late" but Jim knows Harvey's just drunk.
* Harvey realizes that he is the primary target for Ivy's revenge, and he's going to go after her alone:
-->'''Harvey''': ...I got more contacts in The Narrows than any of you. I'm going to find her. Alone.
-->''Beat''
-->'''Harvey''': (comes back in) Once I find my pants.
-->'''Gordon''': (nods, "good call")
* Ed offering the street urchins "a complete set of encyclopedias...minus the T." Then, finally motivating them with "...and twenty bucks."
** Later, his summation of the almost soap opera-like relationship web Lee, Gordon and Sofia are in:
-->"So, your ex was sleeping with your dead husband's mafioso sister."
* We get the long-awaited first meeting of Jim Gordon and Batman...and Gordon promptly shoots him in the chest.

* Penguin's increasing frustration at finding his former allies working for Sofia.
-->'''Penguin''': (To the Dentist) You're working for her?! ''Of course you are!''
* Sofia's expression when Zasz brings in Headhunter. She's clearly thinking "when did my organization get filled with these weirdos?"
** Her exasperation when Riddler will only answer her questions with riddles, ''even while being tortured.''
* The climactic battle of Gordon's war with Sofia somehow goes down at a fetish hotel for adult babies.
-->'''Harvey:''' What fresh level of Hell is this?
** It's hard to say who's more embarrassed when Jim and Harvey apprehend Mr. Penn: the cops, for interrogating someone who's dressed in an oversized baby romper, or Mr. Penn for being questioned in one.
* The I'm-sick-and-tired-of-minding-this-weird-kid look that Sofia's guard gives Martin, when the boy shows him a drawing of a toilet to explain why he's leaving the room.
* Riddler tells Martin that "Uncle Penguin" sent him.
* The sight of the Riddler with a flashlight atop his derby hat.

-->'''Ridder''': Oh dear.
* Barbara matches Riddler when Butch says hi. She grabs a corkscrew to stick in his face.

'''Fries''': Don't care. ::zap::
* Oswald saves Riddler as he's about to be gunned down at a certain spot in Gotham...

-->'''Oswald''': Oh, I agree!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4x16 One of My Three Soups]]]]
* Any episode with Jerome in it is guaranteed to be a laugh-riot. Highlights from the ginger maniac include:
** The sheer weirdness of Jerome, of all people, acting like the sane man of the Jervis-Jonathan-Jerome trio, amidst the other two's loony ramblings and lack of focus.
** As he exits his cell, checking his bare wrist.
-->'''Jerome''': When I say three hairs past the freckle, gentlemen, I don't mean five hairs past.
** Him hiding from the police under a table, only to find some gum under there [[{{Squick}} to eat]].
** What he says to his uncle (though this borders on TearJerker and NightmareFuel territory as well): "You really brought back the utter helplessness of childhood."
** His indecision of whether to save Bruce or let him be killed, including his giggling all the while.
** The very sleazy grin he gives when he first lays eyes on Selina.
* Jervis calling Jim to tell him his location like an excited child:
-->'''Jervis''': Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim.
** Him becoming a sudden [[MoodSwinger Mood-Swinger]] in the same conversation.
-->'''Jervis''': To wit, James, find your way to Witt and James Way. ([[SuddenlyShouting Suddenly yelling]]) Do it, or I'm gonna kill someone! ([[MoodWhiplash Suddenly very calm]]) In case you had any doubts.
* Jervis lampshading a certain tendency villains have: "There'll be plenty of time to stab each other in the back later."
* One for Selina: "Bruce... your ego. It's huge."
* Bruce's quip to Jim after letting him know where to find Jerome: "You can yell at me there."
* Bruce's method of stopping Detective Harper from finding Selina stealing Jerome's file is to burst into fake tears.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: [[AC: 4x17 Mandatory Brunch Meeting]]]]
* At last, the show's Freaks gather together: Jerome, Oswald, Freeze, Firefly, Scarecrow and Mad Hatter. All around a table where Jerome not only drops the episode title but names them "The Legion of Horribles." Just the sight of these lunatics in their various costumes having a sit-down meal is hysterical.
** One of the brunch servers, Carl, clearly doesn't know how to do his job.
-->'''Jerome''': '''USE THE TONGS, CARL!'''
* Jervis's attempt to hypnotize Harvey is derailed by Harvey letting out a berserker roar and ''bullrushing'' him. Cue Jervis and Crane immediately turning tail and running for their lives from the kamikaze detective.
-->'''Harvey''': Oh, HELL NO! I AM NOT LETTING YOU HYPNOTIZE ME AGAIN!\\
'''Jervis''': ''(while running)'' Must go! Must go! ... [[RhymesOnADime They're-after-me-and-the-Scarecrow]]!
* Jerome taking an elevator up with a shotgun and tapping his feet to the muzak. He mutters about how "I used to be a good whistler" to the elderly woman with him who's just frozen in terror.
* Jerome matter of factly asks a receptionist to tell her boss he's in. She runs off screaming.
-->'''Jerome''': Don't bother calling security, they're sort of...''(the woman screams off-screen)'' headless.
* The Riddle Factory. As in, the Riddler has set up his own ''game show'' promising cash to whoever can solve riddles which is the perfect insanity job for him.
* The punishments on the wheel include "having a live barracuda stapled to your face" and "sack of rabid rats".
-->'''Riddler''': My personal favorite!
* When Fries raises his hand, Jerome tells him to "put all questions on ice until the end".
* This exchange when Jerome holds Jeremiah hostage:
-->'''Jerome''': Get any closer and I splatter him! I'm gonna splatter broski!\\
'''Gordon''': No you won't. If you wanted him dead, you would've killed him already.\\
'''Jerome''': Hehehe... ''(deadpan face)'' he's right. I'll see you soon. ''(kisses his brother on the head)''

* Jerome actually forces a player of the festival band to play a drumroll for a big announcement.
* Penguin is not thrilled by Gordon telling him he's going to have to pilot a blimp over the river.
-->'''Oswald:''' Steer a blimp? Are you out of your mind, Jim? I don't even drive my own car!
* At the end of the episode, Oswald calls Gordon to ask if someone can get him down. It is hilariously comicbook-y.
** He then proceeds to have a tantrum, including head-banging and screaming, [[SayMyName "JIIIMMMM!"]] as the camera zooms away on the huge 'Gotham' blimp, while Penguin's leitmotif blares.
* Just as Bruce is looking at his cake, Selina pops in to blow out the candles.
-->'''Selina''': For a billionaire, your security is laaaaaaaaaaame!"
* Bruce's birthday party is interrupted by Gordon and company bursting in to ask Bruce if he could be a hostage for Jerome in order to possibly jam the signal on his explosive collar remote and save some other hostages. Alfred blusters and promptly calls the cops out on suggesting Bruce put himself in great danger at the hands of a homicidal maniac who has tried more than once to kill him already. Selina quips, "For once, I agree with Alfred!"
** FunnyBackgroundEvent: While everyone in the room is discussing the hostage situation, Selina casually continues eating birthday cake.
* Jerome characterizes Jeremiah as their mother's favorite because he cleaned his room, did his homework, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick didn't try to kill everyone]].
** During this little speech, you can hear someone in the crowd yell out: "Who cares?!"

* Oswald's reaction to Riddler and Lee being together.
--> '''Oswald:''' Oh. My. God. Are you ''kidding'' me?!
* It was Ed's turn to taunt the Riddler.
-->'''Ed:''' "Lee, what am I to you?" Does that sound like you to you? Because to me, that sounds like me.\\
'''Riddler:''' I'm not proud of that phrasing.
* Ra's confronts Barbara on misusing her gift.
-->'''Barbara''': You might have left a "how to" manuel.
* Alfred and Tabitha pretend to be a married couple as a distraction.
* While Selina justifies her actions to Bruce, Alfred repeatedly concedes that she has a point.
** Bruce's anger at Selina seems hilariously misplaced, since she handed over the knife ''at gunpoint''. As in, if she hadn't, she and possibly Bruce and Alfred too would have been shot. Though, in spite of her many good points, she fails to bring this up.
* Barbara stabs Ra's al Ghul with the Balahsi Blade in an attempt to kill him, but it doesn't work this time. Ra's merely responds with a mocking "Ouch."
* Selina teases Bruce about the un-stealthiness of his CoolCar due to its loud engine. Bruce promptly engages the quiet exhaust mode. Selina's look is somewhere between laughing at his geekiness and being impressed.
* Ra's al Ghul [[MomentKiller awkwardly interrupting]] Bruce and Selina's moment. Even more so once he tells Bruce that Selina was right when she said that Ra's likes Bruce, indicating that he'd been creepily watching them for a while.
* The fact that the proto-Batmobile gets ''stolen'' by Babs and Tabitha within days of Alfred giving it to Bruce.

-->'''Prisoner:''' The Riddler! We're saved!
-->'''Riddler:''' (closes door)
-->'''Prisoner:''' (later) Penguin! We're saved!
-->'''Penguin:''' (grabs one guy and closes the door)
-->'''Other prisoner:''' You ever get tired of being wrong?
* When Penguin and Butch are torturing one of Jerome's followers:
-->'''Butch:''' Want me to shove chicken bones up his nose until he squawks?
-->'''Penguin:''' ''[[ActuallyPrettyFunny (Impressed)]]'' Yes! That will do!
-->'''Butch:''' ''(Grabs chicken bones from plate)'' Here comes the wing bone train!
-->'''Penguin:''' ''(Pumping his hand in the air)'' Choo-chooooooooo!
