Gotham: Synopsis For ‘The Scarecrow’

We already know that a new level of fear will be coming to Gotham when we get introduced to their version of the “original” Scarecrow in the February 2nd episode, “The Fearsome Dr. Crane. Now we have a synopsis for the follow-up episode that airs the following week and is a direct continuation of the events from “The Fearsome Dr. Crane”. And tellingly, the title of the episode is “The Scarecrow”.

"Gordon and Bullock set out to stop Gerald Crane, a biology teacher who has been harvesting the glands of his murder victims. Meanwhile, after finding herself in an unusual setting, Mooney continues plotting to gain power, and Falcone attempts to change Maroni’s plan for the Penguin. Then, Bruce takes a treacherous hike in the all-new “The Scarecrow” episode of GOTHAM airing Monday, Feb. 9 (8:00-9:00 ET/PT) on FOX. (GTH-115) (TV-14 D, L, V)"

It’s already been confirmed that Gerald Crane is the father of Jonathon Crane, who is the Scarecrow we all know and fear from the Batman comics & video games. We don’t know if we will see a young Jonathon Crane in either of these episodes though. The official cast listing doesn’t say who is playing Gerald Crane, so they could be keeping both these under wraps. But it will be just a short while until we see The Scarecrow in Gotham!
