Four years later, as Gotham City continues to plunge into a darker age of crime, teenage Bruce Wayne is under the care and guidance of his loyal butler, Alfred Pennyworth, and continues to train and test himself in order to become stronger, often including himself in Gordon's investigations to help stop the rising criminal underworld, caused by the death of Gotham's white knight, Thomas Wayne. The series sees Bruce Wayne coping with adolescence, as he begins exploring the secrets that his father left behind, while making new allies and menacing enemies, and ultimately moving towards his destiny as Gotham's Caped Crusader and Dark Knight, the Batman. Gotham has been shown to be a three chapter series; Chapter 1 (Seasons 1-4) being Bruce's teenage years in high school, involving himself in basic GCPD cases. Chapter 2 (Seasons 5-7) is the beginning of his adulthood and his more intense training. Chapter 3 (Seasons 8-10) is the beginning of his crime fighting career, and his final trials, leading to his destiny as the Dark Knight. The series also focuses on the people in Bruce's life; his loyal butler and caretaker, Alfred Pennyworth. His partner and friend, James Gordon. His peers, Renee Montoya and Ethan Bennete. His on-again off-again love interest, Selina Kyle. His allies Leslie Thompkins and Lucious Fox. And most importantly his friendship turned arch-rivalry with Jerome Valeska.
