Sounds to me like Heller had already moved on to his new pet project (the new Gotham series perhaps) and wrapping this story line up was done as quickly as possible. Kind of like when you've landed a new job, but you still have some loose ends to tie up on a long running project at your old job right before your last day there... You want to do as little amount of work and spend as little energy as possible on that last project so you can move on to your next. That's how last night's episode occurred to me---and here's the crux of why everyone is upset ---the resolution is subpar because of the really good story line and build up leading into it. BH et al was the one who set the bar so high, and then left us with this so called resolution and called it done. Very lame, and we feel cheated, that's all.
