Gotham Finale Review of 512 “The Beginning…” Synopsis

Directed by: Rob Bailey

Written by: John Stephens

As a more portly Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor) prepares to leave Blackgate Prison after ten years, strange things begin to take place in Gotham on the eve of the return of Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) for the opening of the new Wayne Towers. Many of Gotham’s residents are waiting for Bruce to return including Selina Kyle (played by Lili Simmons), who is still disappointed she was left behind. Whispers are abound of a dark menace blighting the criminal underworld, while the G.C.P.D. are unable to trace missing US military supplies.

As the day arrives and Penguin walks free more offbeat moments ensue as the Riddler (Cory Michael Smith) is busted out of Arkham Asylum and a shaken Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue) is framed for the murder of an Arkham guard.

As Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) begins to piece together the evidence helped by an unknown figure in black, a sinister plot targeting the city of Gotham and Wayne Towers is revealed to be masterminded by Jeremiah
Valeska (Cameron Monaghan), or is that Jack, Joseph, John or Mr Jay. As Jim prepares to face the disfigured Jeremiah at ACE Chemicals a new figure emerges to be the hero that Gotham needs.

Gotham 507 Review “Ace Chemicals” Synopsis

Directed by: John Stephens

Written by: Tze Chun

Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) races with Leslie Thompkins (Morena Baccarin) to the Narrows to investigate and uncover the criminal elements responsible for the deaths of members of the Chessmen gang. The grizzly murder and use of chemicals also threaten to end talks with the military that promise Gotham’s reunification with the mainland.

Meanwhile, ignoring Jim’s warning, Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) searches for Alfred Pennyworth (Sean Pertwee) who has been missing for five days. As he searches Gotham he is pulled along a new path as he spots, then follows, a couple that resemble his dead parents. Entering a tunnel Bruce is lead to Wayne Manor, where a very much alive Jeremiah Valeska (Cameron Monaghan) sets in motion his twisted recreation of the murder of Bruce’s parents with the help of Jervis Tetch (Benedict Samuel). As Jeremiah unleashes his final spin he prepares to insert himself into Bruce’s history by murdering Jim and Leslie. At the last minute Selina comes to the rescue.

As Jeremiah flees he uses Ecco (Francesca Root-Dodson) to set off his poisonous chemicals on Gotham but while it is foiled by Jim the toxins pollute the water from the city to the mainland. Pursued by Bruce, Jeremiah enters ACE Chemicals where he battles Bruce, but as they fight he falls into one of the chemical vats, leaving him severely disfigured.

Meanwhile, as the military decide against reunification Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor), Ed Nygma (Cory Michael Smith), and Barbara Kean (Erin Richards) come to a truce and an new arrangement to escape the prison that is Gotham!
