Cal Jones) Production Code: 1LAJ01 Summary: City prosecutor Reed Strucker and his wife Caitllin are shocked when they discover that their teenage children Lauren and Andy are mu- tants. They have no choice but to turn to the mutant underground for helping escaping the U.S. when the government comes for the chil- dren. In Atlanta, the police get a report of fugi- tives and move in. They get a visual on one of the fugitives, Clarice Ferguson. The police continue pursuit and trap her in an alleyway. Clarice concentrates on her hands and summons an energy portal, and steps through it. The police car drives through it as it disappears and they real- ize that their target has disappeared. At a railyard, three youths check the area and one of them, John Proudstar, tells the other two that Clarice is close. John says that she’s moving strangely, and one of the others, Marcos Diaz, summons a ball of light. He spots pieces of a police car and they go over to investigate. As they go over, Marcos flirts with his girlfriend, Lorna Dane. Meanwhile, John tells them that Clarice is inside a nearby building. They break in and split up to search for Clarice. Marcos and Lorna find Clarice in an office and says that they’re just there to talk. Clarice insists that she can’t go back, and Marcos tells her that they heard that she broke out of the mutant detention center and wanted to see her. When Clarice throws a hole puncher, Lorna magnetically catches it. Marcos tells Clarice that they’ve all been where she is, and they can help her. John comes in and warns that there’s trouble. There are cops moving in, and Lorna cuts the lights. The police surround the building and say that they’ll surrender if Clarice doesn’t surrender. Lorna blows out the lights on their cars, and the police open fire. John looks for a way out, and Lorna magnetically tosses the policemen 3 The Gifted Episode Guide around and moves the cars. Marcos runs over to her, generating a blinding light, and John gets a rear door open. The four mutants head out and a police officer shoots Marcos in the shoulder. Furious, Lorna slams him repeatedly against a nearby dumpster, and more police arrive and taser her. she takes out one of them but the others subdue her. Meanwhile, John gets Marcos into their van with Clarice. Belleview Acres High School: 14 Hours later Reed and Caitlin Strucker meet with the principal, Ted Baird, to discuss their son Andy. The principal insists that they have a zero tolerance for bullying, and Reed says that recently Andy has stopped talking to him. Caitlin worries that it’s affecting Andy’s sleeping and grades. Ted principal says that want to put Andy with the bullies and get them to communicate, reconcile, and empathize. Reed insists that Andy needs help and threatens to sue the school if he doesn’t. Ted quickly goes to get someone, and Reed gets a text for a pleas conference. Clarice assures him that the kids understands and leaves. At the Strucker home, Lauren is Skyping with her boyfriend Jack asking his opinion on her outfit choices. Caitlin arrives home while Jack tells Caitlin that he’ll see her that night. Lauren comes down to where Caitlin and Andy are having supper, and they talk about the dance that night. Caitlin asks Andy how his day was, and he’s well aware that she and Reed met with Ted. She talks about the law they’re making to test people for the x-gene, and one kid freaked out because his cousin is a mutant. Lauren takes offense when Andy uses the word ”mutie”. At the mutant wing of the Garland Detention Center, Reed and his associate Carla Jackson meet with an imprisoned Lorna. He points out that she’s under arrest for assaulting two police officers and being a mutant, and Lorna claims that she was just out walking. Reed knows that she’s part of the mutant underground and have helped dozens of fugitives. He opens the door and goes into her cell, and insists that he’s trying to help her. Lorna senses metal screws in his knee and says that she could pull them out, and says that if she wanted the cops dead then they’d be dead. Reed shows her a file and says that he’s going to have the court assign her a lawyer. Lorna curses at him and then screams, the lights shorting out as her power runs wild. Reed tells her to give it some thought and leaves. That night, Lauren heads out to meet Jack. Andy is in the car with her, and says that he snuck out and was going to go with her. He points out that he hasn’t been out on a weekend for years, and Lauren wonders if he really wants to go to a dance after the bullying. Andy says that he’s used to it, and Lauren tells him to buckle up. At the school dance, Jack meets Lauren and they kiss. Andy interrupts them to say that he’s going to the dance, and Jack tells him to have fun. The band goes to a slow dance and Andy approaches a girl. She walks away before he can talk to her, and the bullies come in and see Andy. Meanwhile, Lauren tells Jack that she can’t stay out later. She sees the bullies confront Andy, and Andy asks if they’re going to do it in front of everyone. They shove him into a locker room and drag him to the showers. They turn on the shower in his face, cranking up the heat, and the entire building starts to shake. The shower poles bend away from Andy, who screams. The bullies get blasted back and the walls shatter. In the gym, everyone panics and runs, but Lauren tries to go find Andy. A pole falls toward two students, but it stops momentarily as Lauren runs by. The bullies run out of the locker room, and the debris falls on Lauren. She generates a force field with a gesture and the bullies see what she does. Continuing on, Lauren finds Andy and manages to calm him down. She leads her brother out, and Andy sees the lead bully on the floor as they go. At the mutant underground headquarters, a car pulls up and a guard lets it inside. Inside, one of the mutants Sage questions Clarice. She says that there’s no one to contact about her, and Safe says that she can stay there for a few days until they can move her out. Meanwhile, John tends Marcos’ wound, and Marcos wants to rescue Lorna. John advises caution, but Marcos points out that they don’t know if groups like the X-Men and the Brotherhood even exist anymore. John warns that they’d be risking everything that they’ve built. Sage tells them that they have a situation. They watch a news report about how two mutant terrorists attacked a high school dance. John figures that it’s more dangerous than ever. At home, Andy tells Caitlin what happened. Lauren tells her mother to accept that Andy is a mutant, and finally admits that she’s a mutant as well.

  • AMPHIBIUS Villain
    AMPHIBIUS Villain Real Name: Unrevealed. Occupation: Warrior. Identity: Amphibius's existence is unknown to the general public. Legal Status: None. Other Aliases: None. Place of Birth: The Savage Land. Marital Status: Single. Known Relatives: None. Group Affiliation: Savage Land Mutates. Base of Operations: The Savage Land. First Post-Reboot Appearance: UNCANNY X-MEN # History: The origins of the creature known as Amphibius are currently a mystery. He is – or was – apparently a human who was born in the Savage Land, a hidden "lost world" in Antarctica, and was mutated to his current form in some as-yet unexplained manner (see Savage Land). He and the other Savage Land Mutates first clashed with the mutant adventurers known as the X-Men on the latter's first trip to the Savage Land (see Savage Land Mutates; X-Men). The Mutates' mysterious "Master" ordered them to attack the visiting X-Men, but they were defeated. Amphibius has since been seen with the other Savage Land Mutates in their subsequent clashes with the Avengers and the Brotherhood of Mutants (see Avengers; Brotherhood of Mutants). Of all the Mutates, Amphibius is perhaps the most angry and short-tempered, probably because he resents the inhuman form he has been given. Height: 6' (normally appears as smaller due to his stance). Weight: 145 lbs. Eyes: Black. Hair: None. Skin: Green with black spots. Other Distinguishing Features: Amphibius has the form of a humanoid frog. Uniform: White chest piece with water circulation tubes running to a water tank on the back; water tank is also held by a black belt around his waist.
