what happens

Following the epic events of last season, the Legend of the Dark Knight resumes as Gotham City is divided between Gordon's GCPD jurisdiction and some of the city's most notorious villains. As the city's heroes try to gain control and salvage what's left of the deteriorating city, it teeters between good and evil, even as new villains, including the iconic Bane are introduced.

4 of 12 with a score

Every episode has a page — its synopsis, who was in it, and a place to rate it. A number appears when discussion or ratings support one; where there is neither, the dash is the honest answer.
