Rumors have swirled for months that Fish Mooney's days are numbered, but the would-be crime lord of "Gotham" isn't dead yet. In fact, when she makes her return to the streets Batman will one day call home, Jada Pinkett-Smith's character will look more fierce than ever.

"Gotham is a crazy place. When you think something is going to happen the way you expect it to, things turn around," Executive Producer Bruno Heller tells Entertainment Weekly, promising "a very iconic moment" in the season's final episode. "Not withstanding what anyone has said in the press, you can't ever be sure about that stuff until you see what happens."

And there's plenty left to happen before the show's freshman season takes its bow. From Mooney's inevitable clash with Detective Jim Gordon to what could well be the final showdown with the her one time protege and now-rising Penguin, Oswald Cobblepot, her dance card is stacked from the second she arrives home.

"Gotham" airs Monday nights on Fox at 8pm.
