Gotham 3.18 FAQ
What’s it called?
“Light The Wick.”
Who’s responsible?
Teleplay is credited to Tze Chun (“Once Upon A Time”).
What says Fox?
“Gordon discovers the weapon the Court of Owls will use to destroy Gotham, which leads him on a dangerous path as he tracks it down. Meanwhile, Kathryn (guest star Leslie Hendrix) and Temple Shaman (guest star Raymond J. Barry) reveal their next move to Bruce, and Ivy comes to Selina’s aid.”
How does it start?
In Arkham Asylum, Tetch watches as a heavily restrained Barnes is escorted by orderlies.
Can we get a hint with regard to the Owls’ weapon?
It’s not nuclear.
So does Ivy revive Catgirl, or do the cats?
Catgirl’s in the hospital before Ivy shows up, so I like to think the cats played a role.
Does Catgirl get superpowers like she did in “Birds of Prey”?
Not this week.
What’s doing with Penguin, Freeze and Firefly?
The search for Riddler continues.
I just watched the promo. Dr. Strange is back for this one?
He is. And before the opening titles.
What’s doing with Riddler?
He turns up very late in the episode.
What’s doing with Tabitha and Butch?
She listens to an old T Rex song.
Can the walls of Arkham hold the hulkish Barnes?
It’s not an issue.
Does Falcone seek vengeance against Tetch for endangering his family?
No Falcone this week, but Tetch seems vulnerable enough.
The big news?
We learn something new about The Shaman.
What else is Fox not telling us?
No Fish this week.
What’s good?
B.D. Wong as Dr. Strange. Cory Michael Smith as Riddler. Morena Baccarin as Leslie Thompkins. Robin Lord Taylor as The Penguin. Jessica Lucas as Tabitha. Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock. Maggie Geha as Ivy. The T Rex cover. The flaming corpse.
What’s not so good?
This hour feels like filler. Four more episodes remain after tonight; hopefully things pick up.
How does it end, spoiler boy?
“I will be his executioner!” hisses Barnes.
8 p.m. Monday. Fox.
