A new promo for Fox’s The Gifted shows the Strucker family preparing for a fight after Reed Strucker (Stephen Moyer) is captured by Sentinel Services. Reed isn’t sitting on his laurels, though, as he’s quick to form an alliance with an imprisoned mutant, Polaris (Emma Dumont). Likewise, Sentinel Services is forging its own partnerships with mutants who are helping to capture their own kind.

The promo also sees the ramshackle mutant resistance preparing for a fight after years of hiding from persecution. It would also appear as though Andy Strucker (Percy Hynes White) is honing his own abilities, as thus far he has been portrayed as the Strucker with the most potential for mutant devastation.

The video advertises the second episode in the first season of The Gifted, the premiere of which aired tonight. The next episode, “rX,” will follow Caitlin (Amy Acker) and Eclipse (Sean Teale) as they attempt to collect a serum that might save the life of Blink (Jamie Chung) after she over-exerted her powers. Reed will also have to make a tough choice between helping his family and calling Sentinel Services' bluff.
