"eXploited," The Gifted

The Mutant Ages

"eXploited" is by far the best episode of The Gifted yet, with Esme Cuckoo's machinations on full display and tons of other great scenes in the mix. Blink, Dreamer, and the Strucker kids are in captivity at Trask Laboratories, and the torture has begun. The Strucker parents track down Jace Turner and try to convince him he's doing the wrong thing, and it actually works ... but unfortunately, Esme's plan runs in conflict with that. Next episode: We're taking a brief break from The Gifted to do a special episode about the comic series "X-Terminators" (2022). Feel free to read it along with us!
