Gotham 508 Review “Nothing’s Shocking” Synopsis

Directed by: Kenneth Fink

Written by: Seth Boston

Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue) ‘s past comes back to haunt him when two former G.C.P.D. officers are murdered at the Sirens Club. With information from Barbara Kean (Erin Richards), Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) discovers that a shape-shifting Indian Hill escapee called “Jane Doe” is behind the killings. Brought in to the Precinct she escapes and murders Bullock’s former partner Detective Dix (Dan Hedaya).

As Harvey take matters into his own hands his partnership with Jim becomes strained as he confesses that he and the victims unethically forced Jane, formerly “Jane Cartwright” (Sarah Pidgeon), to incriminate her mother for killing her abusive father.

Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) and Alfred Pennyworth (Sean Pertwee) explore the tunnels beneath the city as they attempt to track down the missing husband of an injured woman. But “if you go down to the sewers tonight you sure of a big surprise” as they rescue the woman’s husband they discover a severely disfigured and immensely powerful hybrid-human who was affected by Jeremiah’s chemicals.

Elsewhere, Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor) and Ed Nygma (Cory Michael Smith)’s plans to escape Gotham look like being torpedoed by Cobblepot’s former accountant Arthur Penn (Andrew Sellon). Suffering from a split personality, Penn is embodied by a ventriloquist dummy, Scarface (also Andrew Sellon), resulting in a confrontation with his former boss that leads to the death of Scarface and the the death of one Arthur Penn.
