What were his biggest mistakes? Was it believing in Butch's loyalty, or not thinking about the ways he was vulnerable through his mother?

He was really expecting that he'd be able to protect his mother. He really believed that he could do that, and he really was trusting in Jim Gordon and Butch Gilzean, and all of that was a major oversight on his part. Really, he didn't take the appropriate steps to protect his mother the way he should have.

Part of that seemed to be that it was just something he didn't even think was on the table. He had this particular code of conduct that made going after his mother seem repellant.

That's why he didn't put the appropriate resources towards protecting her the way he should have. He does believe in honor, and we see that in an earlier episode this season — there's a scene where Jerome and the Maniax are taking over, and he's watching it on television with Bullock, and he's disgusted by it. He thinks it's chaos for chaos's sake, and that's beneath Oswald.

There's another scene, his first meeting with Galavan when it's revealed that Galavan had taken his mother hostage. Before they get to that point, Oswald asserts that he's a builder. He wanted to build an empire instead of destroying things, and I think he truly does believe that. Oswald does have a moral compass, and what Galavan is doing is so against that. That's the genius of Theo Galavan.
