"Gotham's" kinder, gentler Oswald Cobblepot is doing his best to turn over a new leaf. But as this behind-the-scenes featurette shows, the violent tendencies that allowed him to rise to the top of the city' underworld may be in his blood.

Robin Lord Taylor discusses Oswald's now-positive outlook on life, and how discovering his long-lost father has the former crime lord hopeful for the future. But with his new family plotting to kill him, and his father (Paul Reubens) revealing the horrible violence his grandfather committed, it's probably a question of when the Penguin soars again rather than if.

"Gotham" stars Ben McKenzie, Robin Lord Taylor, and David Mazouz and airs on Fox, Mondays at 8 p.m.
