Smith recently talked about the turning point for Nygma. According to him, Penguin's betrayal hurt his character a lot. Nygma trusted Penguin above all. He was his first friend, the only one who accepted him for who he was. However, he said the die has been cast and there is no turning back.
"I think this row with Oswald is going to be a turning point in his ability to have or want friendships. ... This one is different because it's about betrayal on a really deep level. He was your best friend, the person who cares for you and who understands you the most. You look to as more of a mentor and a guide. When you have this person who you admire and respect [so much], it's really devastating [when the betrayal happens]," Smith said in an interview with CarterMatt.
"Gotham" season 3 airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on FOX.
