I gave it a 10, for the first time ever since it returned from hiatus.
Long story short, I felt this episode had everything a good episode needed: Character development for the existing characters (Bruce, Oswald, and Mooney), but also for the guest stars/villains (Thompkins / the Cranes).
I enjoyed it, especially Mooney's scenes. I KNEW she was going to kill that guy, and I loved her every second after she did it. I know I keep saying it, but I don't want to lose her. I love a strong female character. However, I wish they would've clarified where she was and exactly what happened before she was abducted, but you can't have it all.
I felt so bad for Jonathan Crane by the end, though. To see and be haunted by something you fear, constantly, is a curse I wouldn't want. I'm guessing that – over the course of the series – if he's even given any development, he'll end up going insane and merge with The Scarecrow to become The Scarecrow we're all pretty familiar with.
Anyway, a good, solid episode. Next week looks good, too. Can't wait.
Also, I would like to give special thanks to superhippie2000 for fixing my poll! You are officially awesome! Thanks!
