This Fish has two lives, apparently. TVLine and EW.com confirmed today that former Gotham star Jada Pinkett Smith will return to the show for a multi-episode arc before the season’s end.

The last time we saw her character, Fish Mooney, she was plunging off a rooftop and into the river thanks to a little push from Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor). Not that we thought she was really dead (her name is Fish, after all).

This season’s other guest stars include Paul Reuben (Pee-wee’s Playhouse) as Penguin’s even odder Papa. Here’s to hoping that he and Fish clash. What could be better than a showdown between Lena from A Different World and Pee-wee Herman?

Gotham returns on Monday, Feb. 29 at 8/7c on Fox.
