Trivia
Summer Gleeson, the journalist who confronts Sofia at her mother's fundraiser, works for the Gotham Gazette, which is the major newspaper in the city in both the comic books and in the wider The Batman series. She's also a character in Batman: The Animated Series who makes it her work mission to find out who the Batman really is.

Goofs
When Sofia raises her red wine glass to toast her family, saying "Cent'Anni," the fill level is down one inch or more from the rim, whereas when she had begun her speech, the glass was nearly overflowing.

Quotes
Sofia Falcone: I've had a lot of time to reflect. And I have to say... I was genuinely surprised at how many of you wrote letters telling the judge that I was mentally ill, like my mother. Not that the judge needed much convincing. My father saw to that. Still, I trusted you. I loved you. And yet, not one of you... tried to help me. Except for my brother, the man you all flew in to mourn. And you know, the real thorn in my side is that, unlike everyone here... I was innocent. I mean, Jesus Christ, Milos has a higher body count than I do.
Luca Falcone: Sofia!
Sofia Falcone: I know you're all anxious for me to leave. No one has been shy about that. I'd really hoped that it would be different. But I understand, I don't fit into this family anymore. So tomorrow, I'm starting a new life. For the first time, I have hope.
[Raises her glass]
Sofia Falcone: To new beginnings. Cent'anni.

Incredible

The whole series so far is amazing, but this episode is a cut above.

This episode is proof alone, if any was really needed, of why a lot of the comic-book movies we're getting lately would be far better served by being made into series instead. Especially when the time and effort that went into this episode in particular is put into them in general.

Cristin Milioti shows incredible work in an episode that's light on the Oz stuff in favour of building out her backstory further - with a welcome, though brief, appearance by the always wonderful Mark Strong as her father Carmine - and also showing the potential she has to become a force of nature herself. It was also great to see Theo Rossi pop up again, but it's always great to see him in the screen.

I honestly have a hard time believing how much better this series gets as it goes along, and I kinda hope it never ends.
