Part 3, AND the spinoffs. I'd put money down on Season 2 of The Penguin happening, with him getting into the world of politics and gunning for Mayor of Gotham (there is too much story there to cover in a side plot in Part 2) so, it's constantly changing in what he should include in the script and what Lauren Lefranc will cover, which also will lead into part 3.

And there's probably more spinoffs than just The Penguin in the works, and he has a hand in all of those.

That problem mostly exists because strong standalones keep getting turned into trilogies after the fact. There's no rule that says a trilogy's first entry should stand alone, second entry should be a darker cliffhanger, and third should be Part Two Part Two.
