Gotham Season 5: Predicting The Fate Of Every Character
22. Leslie Thompkins
If Barbara Kean's run on the show has been surprising, Leslie Thompkin's progression has been downright unfathomable. Despite Lee being a kindly elderly doctor to Batman in the comics, Morena Baccarin's take on the character has been far more interesting. After being infected by a virus, she has recently embraced her darker side but has been able to maintain some semblance of the morality that she had while working for the GCPD.
In the latest season, Thompkins assumed leadership of The Narrows, the poorest part of Gotham with the help of Edward Nygma. At the end of the season, the two of them stabbed each other yet were taken by Hugo Strange. It can be assumed that she will return to her role in leading The Narrows, with or without Nygma.
Given that she finished Season 4 in the hands of Hugo Strange, she could undergo yet another transformation. However, the character portrait above seems to show no significant changes, meaning her character will likely be similar to before.
Considering that she is one of the few morally good turf leaders, it is likely that she will survive. She will probably be busy keeping her people safe and out of the way while most of the action is concentrated elsewhere. It is still a possibility that she will die, perhaps protecting The Narrows or even Nygma, but she will most likely make it out unscathed.
