In the next episode of "Marvel's Inhumans," Maximus' henchmen hunt down Black Bolt (Anson Mount), Medusa (Serinda Swan), Gorgon (Eme Ikwuakor), and Karnak (Ken Leung) on Earth.

The trailer for the upcoming installment titled "Divide and Conquer" was just released which showed five powered henchmen getting transported to Earth to backup Auran's (Sonya Balmores) hunt for Black Bolt and the rest of the Royal Family of Inhumans. One of the minions has a metal mask on with glowing eyes which can shoot laser beams. It is apparent that all of them have special powers and abilities that could catch and even kill the Royal Family.

Gorgon tells one of the human islanders, "They swear that it's not going to be like anything you have ever seen. This is my fight for my people and for my king." Later, Gorgon appears to be chased by Maximus' minions and avoids their gunfire.

Medusa also gets involved in a car chase and shoots back at her enemies. She and Black Bolt also appear to have reunited at one point. She then contacts Maximus and warns him that Black Bolt is going to have a talk with him very soon. Maximus replies, "Tell my brother, I look forward to the family reunion."

In the last episode, Maximus staged a coup against Black Bolt which forced him and the rest of the Royal Family to flee the Inhuman city of Attilan which was hidden on the moon. With the help of Lockjaw the teleporting dog, the family escaped safely to Hawaii but have to remain on the planet in exile.

It remains to be seen how Black Bolt and Medusa got reunited and when they will join up with the rest of the Family.

"Marvel's Inhumans" season 1 episode 3 will air on Friday, Oct. 6 at 9 p.m. EDT on ABC.
