Jerome (Cameron Monaghan) reminisces abut his past life with the circus as his bound and gagged father, Paul Cicero (Mark Margolis), is forced to listen in this new clip from next week's episode of "Gotham."

"Every Spring, right around my birthday, there was this guy -- him and my mom used to drink and fornicate and beat the crap out of me. They'd make a whole night out of it," Jerome recalls, before relating the advice the blind psychic gave him -- fatherly advice (of a sort) from a man who never revealed his relationship to the then-innocent boy.
