does not show vs not shows

The correct phrase is "does not show." In English, when using the auxiliary verb "does" to form a negative sentence, the main verb should be in its base form (infinitive) without the -s ending. Therefore, "does not show" is the appropriate construction and "not shows" is incorrect.
