New(?) Masked Villain

Perhaps “New” may be premature to say, since he person behind the mask may very well be someone we know. For now what we know is that Cobblepot isn’t the main baddie and he’s working under this unnamed antagonist.

If I had to take a guess on who the villain was, choosing from the large rogues gallery, I would believe him to be The Scarecrow. Multiple times in this episode there have been people under the influence of some kind of toxin that will temporarily brainwash a victim to do an act to benefit our antagonist. 

Officer Renee Montoya was our first experience with this drug when she murdered Carmine Falcone at gunpoint while he was in a hospital bed. After the dust had settled, Montoya wakes up in shock at what she has done. So far this sounds like The Scarecrow’s M.O.
