In the next episode of "The Gifted," Agent Jace Turner (Coby Bell) and the Sentinel Services plan their attack against the mutants.
The trailer for the upcoming installment, titled "3 X 1," was released just recently and showed Turner speaking at the funeral of agents who were killed by the mutant Esme (Skyler Samuels). "We have lost too many people. I am done tolerating evil," Turner says to the grieving families.
Later, he and Dr. Roderick Campbell (Garret Dillahunt) have a talk as they walk through the cemetery. "The time for mercy is over," Campbell says to the embattled Sentinel leader. It appears Turner will do whatever it takes to get back at the mutants. He employs the skills of some powerful mutants who Campbell captured and conditioned to work for the humans. The doctor was able to control their minds and have them do whatever he tells them.
In the meantime, Polaris (Emma Dumont), Thunderbird (Blair Redford), Eclipse (Sean Teale), and the rest of the mutants and human allies are figuring out their next move against the Sentinels. They know that it is just a matter of time before Turner and his forces find their hideout and capture them all. The powerful Esme wants to do something about the Sentinels. "The humans will come for us all," she says to the group.
In the last episode, Polaris and the rest of the team devised a plan to save all the captured mutants. However, Esme intercepted the convoy of prisoners and used mind control on the agents and had them kill one another. All the mutants were rescued, but it cost many humans their lives. Thunderbird and Eclipse were not pleased with Esme's course of action.
"The Gifted" season 1 episode 11 will hit the airwaves on Monday, Jan. 1, at 9 p.m. EST on Fox.
