I want to be sympatetic towards oz but ... (spoiler)


wtf oz, why killed vic your most loyal man ???
I know the penguin is untrustable, unredeemable, self-centric, manipulative, but by killing vic makes his moral standard worst even than the hangman or among other the batman's adversaries.
I am not sure if killing vic will make the series' ending better or worse, but I choose the latter, so disappointed

I also disliked that scene.

But Oz is a psycho and an egomaniac. He only loves his power. Anything else is a distraction .

He’s nuts.

Right? Did people forget about him paying the hooker to dress up like his mother? Dude is Norman Bates-level of fucked up.

I feel the same. True loyalty means nothing to a villain? I guess show runners saw too much of Donald Trump i.e. he was cool with hanging Mike Pence. The killing of Victor made me lose interest in a future season of Penguin. I thought the series was great but killing Vic just soured it for me.
