The Morlocks Make Their Debut on This Week's New Episode of 'The Gifted'

At New York Comic Con this past weekend, “The Gifted” fans got an early look at the first act of Tuesday night’s new episode, but that was just a hint at all that is about to occur, including the debut of the Morlocks! 

You can watch a preview above, which gives you a glimpse of Eclipse’s journey to meet with the Inner Circle and the danger that presents. 

In “coMplications,” Polaris’ baby begins to suffer from a deadly illness, leaving the Inner Circle unable to heal her, and prompting them to turn to an unexpected source for help. Meanwhile, Reed and Lauren take an excursion to deliver illegal meds, but Reed’s powers complicate their plans. Then, Thunderbird and Blink meet the leader of the Morlocks – a shadowy group of mutants that live underground – who offers to help them find the Inner Circle, but the two factions may not have the same goals.

“The Gifted” – “coMplications” airs Tuesday, Oct. 9th at 8:00pm ET/PT on FOX.
