[indistinct chatter]
- Hello?
- Hey, it's Nina.
Please leave a message.
- It's Ginny. Where are you?
Your school counselor said
you dropped out
and no one's seen you.
Just call me back.
Tell me where you are.
I'm worried.
I miss you, sis.
[dramatic music]
- Welcome to Becoming You! Hi.
- Thank you.
I'm so excited to be here.
- Oh, we're excited
to have you...
- Oh, I'm Anna.
- Kelly. So great to meet you.
Do you have ID
for the register?
- Absolutely.
I look like a serial killer
here.
Promise I'm not, though.
- Mm-hmm.
- Sorry.
- For you.
- Thanks.
- Oh.
And for you.
[chuckling]
[clapping]
Welcome. Hi!
What a beautiful sea of faces.
Hi, everybody. I'm Kelly.
Have you ever felt
that you're taping into
only a fraction
of your potential?
Yes? Ever wondered why
some people seem to get
everything they want,
and you can't?
- Yes.
[crowd]: Yes.
- Six years ago,
I was just like you.
I set out to try and make it,
be the next 40 under 40.
But it just wasn't happening.
I blamed everyone.
Everyone, but me.
Then I came on this course,
and my life has never been
so happy or fulfilled.
And we're gonna do
the same for you.
Get ready to blow your minds.
[clapping]
- Great day, huh?
- Sure beats going to class.
- Oh, are you a student
right now?
- Jennaman College.
Paolo, by the way.
- Right. Anna.
- Have a good night.
- You too.
Thank you for today.
I've learned so much.
- Aw, and that's just day one.
Next time, we'll be diving
into a questionnaire
that we've specially developed
to get to know the real you.
- Hmm.
- Your life is gonna change.
Best $300 you've ever spent.
- See you soon.
[ominous music]
[door opening]
[door closing]
"Your life is gonna change."
I wanted to scream in her face.
And guess what?
First person I meet
goes to Jennaman.
- Of course.
It's initiation week.
Get them while they're green,
right?
It's been a long day.
Do you need anything?
- Can I get a bottle of water
or something?
- Yeah, of course.
- Thanks, Victor.
- And are you okay?
Fake ID worked okay?
- We'll find out.
Let's hope we covered
every base.
- You'll be fine.
As far as they know,
you are Anna Ransome.
Former law student,
currently working in marketing.
All calls will go through me.
We've set up fake social media
accounts, fake ID...
- I know. I just... don't know
if I can keep up the act.
- Well, do you want to?
- I have to.
- Okay. Then...
just play it cool.
You'll be fine.
We've been preparing for this
for three months.
I know these cults
inside and out.
It's what I do.
Speaking of which...
Tomorrow, they'll give you
the questionnaire.
- Okay...
- Made you a cheat sheet.
That's everything Corinne
told me during deprogramming.
What they're going to tell you
is that the questionnaire
is designed to help
find the real you.
What it's actually for
is helping them figure out
what makes you susceptible
during the next stage,
which is where the real
indoctrination begins.
- So I have to memorize
these answers
and get the perfect score.
- Exactly.
We're gonna find your sister,
Ginny.
- It's her birthday on Friday.
My dad's beside himself.
I have to bring her home.
- We haven't given up.
- Can't say the same
for the police.
- We won't give up.
I promise.
- And today, we have with us
the great Ray Wilson,
our most senior Spearhead.
[clapping]
- Thank you, Kelly.
Hello, everyone.
I have so much to share
with you.
Today, we are going to find out
who you really are.
Let's get started.
[clapping]
- Your questionnaire, Anna.
Thank you.
[Kelly clears her throat]
- Thank you.
Alright.
Anna, you're up.
[Ray clears his throat]
Anna.
You loved English Literature
but you ended up doing
a law degree.
- It seemed like
the sensible thing to do.
- But it's not what you wanted.
So why did you do it?
- My dad believes in hard work
and a good education.
- Is it your dad's life?
- No.
- And what about your mom?
- She passed away.
- She was an English teacher.
Do you think she'd be happy that
you ended up doing a law degree?
Maybe that's why she didn't
put up more of a fight
when she got sick.
If you didn't think you were
worth fighting for,
maybe neither did she.
The choices we make
are our choices.
Not Mom's, not Dad's. Ours.
When we own them,
we can change them.
Thank you, Anna.
[indistinct conversation]
- Anna?
Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm just...
Today was intense.
- Shall we walk together?
- I didn't realize it was gonna
get that heavy.
- Aw. We deliberately
don't warn you.
If your guard's up,
it doesn't work.
- I spent so long trying not
to think about losing my mom.
It's hard when it's suddenly
right there in front of you.
- Well, we can't become
our best selves
without taking some time
to look at the bad stuff.
It pays off. I promise.
- So how did you become
a teacher?
- Mmm, well,
after Becoming You,
I joined the retreat called
Route to Fulfillment
where you can train
to become a trailblazer.
If you think Becoming You
is intense, well...
you should try that.
[Kelly chuckles]
Takes place at
a beautiful lake house,
and people are amazing.
It's magical.
- And this is all connected
to White Light
and David Trask, right?
- We call him The Pathfinder.
He created all of this.
He's a genius.
- Isn't there an investigation?
Some sort of legal case?
Sorry, I just read an article...
- No, honestly, anytime someone
tries to do something different,
there's always naysayers.
Some people are just
so threatened.
We're trying to help people
find their true calling,
and... harness that knowledge
to forge a better world.
One built with community
and togetherness,
not money and power.
- You know, I studied law.
I'm sure White Light
has their own legal team...
- Well, actually, yes.
But... currently, as things are,
they haven't met
The Pathfinder's expectations.
- Well, if there is ever
anything I can do to help...
Look over documents
or give legal advice.
- Thank you, Anna.
I'll tell Ray.
- Well, I should go.
I am exhausted.
- May your light shine
on the world.
[screaming]
Get off me!
- Hey!
[spraying]
Are you okay?
Should I call the police?
- No, no, no. I'm fine.
Oh, thank goodness
you were here, Anna.
Thank you.
[sighs]
- I'm so glad you're okay.
- Me too. Thank you.
- Gosh.
- Are you okay to...
- Yeah. He's gone. I'll be fine.
- Okay. Thank you.
- Get home safe.
- You too.
[panting]
[door closes]
[soft mysterious music]
[sighing]
- You think she bought it?
- I think so.
- Good.
[sighing]
[birds chirping]
[Ray]: I'm sure it must've been
scary, but we're here today.
[Kelly chuckles]
Here she is.
[clapping]
Alright, everyone sit, please.
Anna, we all heard what
you did last night.
Absolutely incredible.
And we all love Kelly very much,
and we couldn't do any
of this without her.
Now, action changes lives,
and Anna demonstrated that
last night.
As a sign of our gratitude,
if you'd like to go further down
the route to fulfillment,
we would like to offer you
a free place
on our next retreat.
May your light shine
on the world.
- Thank you.
- I told Ray about
your legal knowledge.
He'd like to chat.
- I'd be honoured.
- Okay.
- Also, great work to Kelly,
who after teaching
her tenth course,
moves up from Trailblazer
to Spearhead.
[clapping and cheering]
[door creaking]
[suspenseful music]
- They took all
my White Light notes.
- Is there somewhere you can go?
It's too risky for you
to come to my house.
- No.
They were gonna find me
sooner or later.
They always do.
We just need to make sure
they don't find you.
This free spot has me worried.
Trask usually squeezes every
penny out of his recruits.
Are you sure
they're not onto you?
You're drawing
a lot of attention.
- I don't have a choice.
I can't spend years climbing
the ranks like Kelly.
I have to find Nina now.
[birds chirping]
- To reach our true potential,
to become our best selves,
we need to have an honest
experience away from naysayers.
Now, those who make up stories
about White Light,
who try to turn people
against us,
are just afraid
of what we show them.
That the world doesn't need
to be greedy or cruel.
It can be loving. Generous.
So...
let's cast them out
of our lives. Hmm?
Guard your life.
[all]: Guard our lives!
[Paolo]: I'm scared
I'll never find love.
[all]: Weak.
- I'm scared my life will
never amount to anything.
[all]: Weak.
- I'm scared I'll never live up
to my dad's expectations.
[all]: Weak.
- I get scared I'm not
good enough.
[all]: Weak.
- I worry about my appearance.
[all]: Weak.
- I care what other people
think of me.
[all]: Weak.
[Ray]: We love you, Anna.
[all]: We love you, Anna.
[insects chirping]
[device beeps]
[exhales]
- Come up.
Wow. Look at you.
I mean, you are... glowing.
I can see that being here
agrees with you.
Please, sit.
- Thanks.
- So,
how are you finding The Path?
- I feel really good.
I love all the classes
and the exercises.
- Even Resilience?
- It's hard.
But... I can see how
it's making me stronger.
- There's no progress
without pain.
You have such an incredible
energy.
And such a positive
aura about you.
Kelly says you've been
a fantastic addition
to the group.
[chuckles]
Do you know what we're trying
to do here?
- I think so.
- We want to change the world.
I know that sounds clich,
but...
that is our mission.
We want people to see the world
the way it used to be.
Communal. Tribal.
- It's beautiful.
- Kelly also mentioned
that you studied law.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, The Pathfinder and I
are curious
to get your perspective
on something.
There was a girl.
A wonderful soul
who we all loved dearly.
But...
her parents refused to let her
make her own choices.
Please.
They turned her against us.
Against herself.
Snuffed out her light.
- Corinne Wragg.
I've read about her.
- Lies, most certainly.
The papers will make up
just about anything.
I do feel bad
for her mom and dad.
The Pathfinder's trying to keep
this from getting to court.
It would be...
It would be too painful
for them.
Do you want to help
the cause, Anna?
- Yes.
- You're gonna do great here.
[phone ringing]
- Are you okay?
- I just left Ray's office.
He showed me Corinne's file,
it was in a locked cabinet.
- That's great.
- Maybe one of the files in
his office says where Nina is.
I just have to get the keys,
but they're always
in his jacket.
- There is something
that Corinne told me.
Ray used to take everyone out
for these intense runs.
Push them for miles.
- We haven't done one yet.
- Might be worth a try.
[ominous music]
[birds calling]
- This was a wonderful idea,
Anna.
A good run invigorates
the soul.
- Ah! Twisted my ankle.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah. I'll be fine.
I'll wait at the house.
You go ahead.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
[suspenseful music]
The Sanctuary...
[Ray]: Alright, great work,
everyone.
Nice work, let's get inside.
[keys jingling]
- Hey. You're back early.
- How's the ankle?
- It's a little sore,
but I don't think
it's anything serious.
- Good.
[birds chirping]
[waves lapping]
Now today is our last day
together,
but it doesn't end here.
Some of you will carry on
our mission
by bringing in new recruits,
while others will want
to live in the light
every moment of the day.
Well, The Pathfinder has created
a place where that can happen.
The Sanctuary.
It's a place where
we can grow in tune
with The Pathfinder's
principles,
and find our inner light.
We live off the land,
we meditate.
It's living on this planet
the way we ought to be.
Now, there are a few
spaces available
for newly qualified recruits.
Anyone who wants can undertake
an initiation tonight
in the woods at the top
of the hill.
It'll be tough,
it will be scary,
but it's a whole new beginning.
[crickets chirping]
Trust yourselves.
Trust the process.
It's a beautiful thing.
Let's begin.
[suspenseful music]
[breathing heavily]
[bell ringing softly]
In the moment before death,
we see a white light
at the end of the tunnel.
Only when we look
death in the eye
can we truly appreciate life.
If you can't take it anymore,
just ring the bell.
[music intensifies]
[gasping]
[pained gasping]
[panting]
[loud shrill squealing]
[screaming]
[screaming]
[intense music]
[screaming]
[eerie droning music]
[birds chirping]
- Welcome to White Light.
[breathing shakily]
We knew you had guts, Anna.
But still.
Incredible work at initiation.
[chuckles]
Now...
As Trailblazers,
anything we own,
anything we earn,
helps to support our community.
We share absolutely everything.
And on that note,
did you bring your banking
details that we requested?
[Victor]: When Corinne
became a Trailblazer,
that's when they got a hold of
the photos and the bank detail.
They dress it up as a trust
exercise, but it's blackmail.
Plain and simple.
- So we have to give them
something incriminating?
I have an idea.
It happened to someone
I worked with.
- You can trust us
with absolutely anything.
Mistakes you've made.
We share those mistakes
together.
Like what happened
at your first job,
at Sigmund and Sons.
- How do you know about that?
- Oh, Anna. There is no shame
in a gambling addiction.
I mean, it can happen to anyone.
They were wrong to fire you.
They should've shown you
compassion.
We promise here that no one
will ever find out.
- Thank you.
- No, thank you.
- Oh, I thought about
Corinne Wragg's case.
I doubt the police have reached
the threshold
for manslaughter charges.
But if you're worried,
you can file a defamation suit,
to keep them busy.
- Thank you, Anna.
- I don't like you going
there alone.
No one knows what happens
at The Sanctuary.
Corinne would never
talk about it.
- Nina is there, Victor.
I'm going tomorrow.
And you know you can't come
anywhere near me.
It's too risky.
For both of us.
[sighs]
- If Nina is there...
she's at the heart
of White Light.
Only the top recruits make
it there. Yourself included.
- Last night was so hard.
If I hadn't known
what to expect...
Thank you.
- It's okay.
Even if you do find her,
she's not just gonna
walk out the door with you.
We have no idea
what they've done to her.
- I just have to get to her.
She'll listen to me.
She has to.
- I'll follow you there.
I'll be nearby.
- Victor...
- I'll send you my location,
that way you can
keep me updated.
Just so I know you're safe.
I mean it, Ginny.
[tense music]
- Anna. Hi.
- Hi.
Wow, this is... impressive.
- Some of our wealthier members
give donations.
The Pathfinder can be very
persuasive for the cause.
- Alright.
Everybody gather around.
The most extraordinary man
I know,
The Pathfinder himself,
David Trask.
- I keep telling him
not to say that.
[others chuckling]
Thank you, Ray.
Hi.
May your light shine
on the world.
May your light shine
on the world.
May your light shine
on the world.
May your light shine
on the world.
Anna.
May your light shine
on the world.
You did a great job
with the Wragg's case.
We filed our countersuit
yesterday.
I'd like to thank you
personally.
Come and see me in my residence.
- I'd like that.
- Ray will show you
where to sleep
and give you your roles
in the community.
We eat twice a day,
at six AM and six PM.
And there's Resilience
every night.
Make yourselves at home.
- May your light shine
on the world.
Now, uh, if you would please
hand over all
of your cellphones.
[phone buzzing]
Technology kills the moment.
I promise you,
you won't miss them.
Thank you.
Kelly.
Alright.
Let me show you the Paradise.
[unsettling music]
[insects chirping]
[indistinct chatter]
- New recruits.
We eat in silence
to be aware of each mouthful,
and the goodness
and energy it brings.
No meat.
All animals are equal to us.
[cutlery clinking]
[dramatic music]
- Hey!
- Oh, this can't be happening.
- It's me. Please.
- You shouldn't be here.
- I just wanted to see you.
Make sure you're okay.
- Well, I'm fine,
so you can go now.
- That's it?
After two years,
I have been so worried
about you.
- I don't even understand.
What about the questionnaire?
How did no one spot it?
- I lied.
I made up a name
and told them
what they wanted to hear.
But only so I could see you.
- But you must've gone through
initiation.
- What, being tied to a tree
and scared half to death?
What kind of people
do that to each other?
- You haven't changed.
- You can't fall in for this.
Come home.
- You're not my sister anymore.
You're no one.
- Nina!
Oh, so good to see you.
- How long are you
staying here for?
- Oh, just until
the next course. A month.
- I've been reading recruit
files. Tell me about Anna.
Is she committed?
- Oh my goodness, 100 percent.
She really gets the mission.
She's a true believer.
- You know she saved Kelly.
There's no problem, is there?
- No. No, she just reminds me
of someone I know, that's all.
May your light shine
on the world.
[crickets chirping]
- Resilience is all about
breaking ourselves down
to build us up again.
It's our greatest weapon against
the naysayers who hurt us.
Anna?
Before, you told us
your weaknesses.
But here, we tell you.
Knowing how other people see us,
it helps us grow.
Anyone want to start?
How do you see Anna?
How can she improve?
- You're smug.
You think you're better
than everyone.
- Thank you.
- When I first saw you,
I didn't like how
you wear your hair.
It makes you look ugly.
- Thank you.
- Sometimes you come off
a little... false.
- Thank you.
- I don't trust you.
And I don't think you've earned
the right to be here.
- Thank you.
- Very good, Nina.
Very good, everyone.
It's that time again.
Let us all drape her
with our love.
Come.
[all]: We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
[echoing]: We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
[suspenseful music]
- Hi.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
- Did you find Nina?
- She's fine. She's just...
so... cold and angry.
It's not like her at all.
Maybe my dad was right.
Maybe this was all for nothing.
- We always knew
this was a possibility.
But your dad chose
to run away from this.
You're not going to.
- I'm not giving up on her.
I just need her to see
how crazy this all is.
- We're not the only ones
who are onto them, by the way.
She might be worth talking to.
- In the meantime,
keep a low profile.
I can't keep coming back.
They watch us like hawks.
- Don't take any chances, okay?
- I won't.
[suspenseful music]
[inaudible conversation]
- Anna.
- Oh! You scared me.
- You shouldn't be out
after curfew.
Pathfinder wouldn't like it.
- I thought I heard something.
Just went to take a look.
It won't happen again.
[birds chirping]
[loud horn blaring]
[gasping]
- What time is it?
- Oh...
time is immaterial.
Nina wants you at the car
in 15 minutes.
- Kelly.
I saw you in the private wing
last night.
- Were you spying on me?
- It was an accident.
What's going on?
- Well, it's part
of the Mission.
It's private.
No one's supposed to know.
- Are you and The Pathfinder...
- Anna. I said we can't
talk about it.
Please don't bring it up again.
For both of our sakes.
- I'm sorry. I won't.
- Well, go on. Hurry up.
They're waiting for you.
- The local newspaper,
The Franklin Chronicle,
is run by Olivia Carmen.
She's a classic naysayer.
Prints things about White Light
that have no basis in fact,
makes up stories about what goes
on here, calls us a cult...
There she is.
- Corinne talked to Olivia
when she ran away.
Now we think she's passing on
these lies to the cops.
- The authorities hate
movements like ours.
We threaten the status quo.
- We need Olivia
to call this off,
so we're just giving her
a little nudge
in the right direction.
[Nina]: David was right.
She's trying to get
the police involved.
Anna. You come with me.
Hold this. Be careful.
- What is it?
- Just hold it.
- If you hate me so much,
why haven't you told them
who I am?
- Because you put me in
an impossible situation.
And I think you could actually
benefit from being there.
- Look, I'm just trying
to understand
how you left without
even telling me.
- Because I chose a different
path than you?
Didn't do what you wanted?
- I never made you do anything.
- "There is none so blind
as those who will not see."
- What are you talking about?
- I finally found a place
where I feel valued.
When I came here,
David was about to give up.
- Has it crossed your mind that
you're all being manipulated?
If it wasn't for Trask,
Corinne might still be alive.
- Hey come on, hurry up.
Let's go.
- Now, come with me.
- Why did you pick me?
- Because you lied about
the gambling habit.
This is a real crime
to answer for.
[device beeping]
[car unlocks]
- How did you do that?
- Stop asking questions.
Now, put it in the car.
- What is it?
You're crazy.
I can't do this.
- You have to.
- I'm not doing this.
- Put it in the car.
- Nina. Don't make me do this.
- You have to.
- I can't.
[heavy breathing]
[engine starts]
[engine revving]
[phone ringing tone]
[crickets chirping]
- Today was hard.
If any of you have
any questions,
now would be the time.
- Paolo.
- I know that woman's
corruptive.
But I'm just worried.
What if she got hurt?
- She hurts us every day,
sharing her one-sided opinions
without even having
a conversation with us.
Are we supposed to allow this?
- No.
But was it venomous?
- It will have given her
a shock, that's all.
We do not seek enemies, Paolo,
but when they come for us,
we must stand up
for ourselves, no? Yes?
[all]: Yes.
[sighs]
[tense music]
- Next time...
she will weigh her options
more thoughtfully.
- Paolo, can I talk to you?
- Yeah.
- If you question
The Pathfinder,
we will throw you in the cage.
Do you understand?
- Yeah.
- Good.
[breathing heavily]
[Trask]: I hate
all these slip-ups.
Corinne, Olivia Carmen,
that so-called expert,
Victor Johnson.
And now Anna is being
suspicious?
Ray said she was... scared.
- It was a big step-up.
- Yeah, well, if she can't
handle the pressure,
she shouldn't be here.
- We can tell her to leave.
[sighs]
- No. Tell her to come see me.
I'm tense, I just need to relax.
- Come on. The Sylphs are ready.
- You know I'd be lost
without you.
- Me too.
[footsteps approaching]
[]
- Did you say you checked
Anna out?
- Social media, job history,
education. No red flags.
- Check again.
[]
[crickets chirping]
[door closes]
[buzzing]
[buzzing]
[sinister music]
[gasps]
[birds chirping]
[soft music]
- Can I help?
Thought you'd be too important
to do a job like this.
- No one is too important here.
- I don't see him doing it.
Nina, will you come and see
a friend of mine with me?
- What? Who?
- Somebody who really
understands White Light,
and can hopefully give you
a new perspective.
- Why would I need
a new perspective?
Why can't you understand
I am right where I belong?
- When Mom died,
something broke in us.
In all of us.
I want us to finally heal,
as a family.
- We have a more honest
experience away from our family.
- Nina, are you and Trask...
- Stop it, Anna.
- I mean, I wouldn't blame you.
Minus the fact that he's clearly
a sociopath, he's kind of hot.
- Hmm, you're debasing yourself.
- What about Ray?
There's something going on
with him and Kelly, right?
- Kelly is not Ray's type.
- Do you remember
Darren Painter?
- Summer camp?
- Now, he was hot.
[laughing]
[clears throat]
- The Pathfinder
would like to see you.
- Okay. I'll go see him.
If you come with me to see
my friend Victor.
- The difference is you don't
get a choice.
- Sure I do.
Go see Trask,
or go to the cage.
Right?
- How do you know about that?
- The important thing
is I'm not afraid.
I'll only see Trask if you come
with me to see Victor.
[sighs]
- Fine.
[soft unsettling music]
- I need an explanation.
- I have no idea who he is.
- This is the guy looking
into Corinne's death.
Why does he have
such an interest in you?
- I don't know.
Don't tell David about this,
just let me handle it.
- You make sure you do.
- This is risky.
- I know, but we made a deal.
Come on!
Nina, we can't be out here.
Come.
- I can't.
- You have to come with me.
- I can't.
- You can...
- Who's there?!
- Run.
- Nina. What are you doing?
- You said I had to deal
with the naysayer,
so I'm dealing with it.
- By sneaking off in the night?
Does Trask know?
- I thought it would be easier
if I handled this myself.
- I'll have to let him know
you tried to leave.
- Ray... please.
He doesn't need that right now.
- Are you afraid he won't
love you anymore, Spearhead?
- You know how much
he means to me.
- He means that much
to all of us!
You're right.
He wouldn't want to know
about this.
It would shatter him,
and we need all of his strength
right now.
Look, deal with it tomorrow.
But do not go behind
my back again.
Otherwise, you know
what'll happen.
[birds chirping]
[phone ringing]
- Olivia Carmen.
Uh, I don't know anyone
called Victor Johnson.
Okay. I suppose you should
put him through.
- Mrs. Carmen,
this is Victor Johnson.
Thank you for taking my call.
- Should I know you?
- No.
But I read your articles
on White Light
in the Franklin Chronicle.
I think I have some information
you might be interested in.
- Go on.
- A friend of mine, Ginny,
she's embedded herself
in White Light.
She's there to save
her sister, Nina Budd.
I haven't heard from her
in days.
- Interesting.
Okay, Mr. Johnson.
Can you meet at my office
this afternoon at three?
- Will do. See you then.
[sighs]
[knocking on glass]
[sighs]
[device beeps]
As dangerous
as this whole thing is,
the time when
you're most vulnerable
is when you're alone with Trask.
[suspenseful music]
All cults are built around
a single charismatic leader
who is an expert
at manipulating minds.
And they have all sorts of
techniques at their disposal.
Things like disorientation.
Waking you up early,
disrupting your sleep patterns.
Or physical control,
like telling you what you can
wear, what you get to eat...
But the greatest danger of all
is when they get in your mind.
- It must have been hard.
You lost your mother so early.
[Victor]: They'll use things
they learned about you
from the questionnaire,
or from thoughts
you don't even remember sharin.
- But you still have
your father,
and a little sister.
What's her name?
- Jennifer.
- Trask will aim to go to
the deepest parts of your soul.
Your darkest secrets.
Your worst nightmares.
He wants you naked, vulnerable.
So broken that he can plant
the seed of any idea he wants.
Because then, he controls you.
Then you belong to him.
- Tell me about
your relationship.
I'm curious.
- We used to be close,
but we've grown apart.
- How so?
- There was a guy.
He got inside her head.
Started to control her.
She changed.
- In what way?
- I don't know.
- Perhaps she had to.
There's a fine line between
caring about someone
and wanting to control them.
- It doesn't matter how strong
you think you are,
you'll need nerves of steel
to resist him.
- But sometimes, the people
who care about us the most
end up hurting us the most.
Especially when they're
keeping us from being free.
- It wasn't like that.
- We have a more honest
experience
when we're away
from our families.
Come.
Let me show you something.
[birds calling]
[soft music]
- I went to see Trask.
Now it's time for you to keep
your side of the bargain.
- I did.
- Everyone...
this is Victor Johnson.
He calls himself an expert.
An expert on things
he doesn't know anything about.
This leech has made it
his life's work
to attack our mission.
And now we find him creeping
into our home to spy.
I think he deserves a particular
type of punishment.
Paolo, what punishment
do you think it appropriate?
- The cage.
Put him in the cage.
- Hmm. And you, Anna?
What do you think?
- Put him in the cage.
- Very well.
Take your time in there.
Think about the pain
that you've caused us.
Oh, uh, Ray?
You may as well give him
some music to listen to.
[loud shrill squealing]
[tense music]
- Don't be weak, Anna.
Don't waste your tears
on that naysayer.
- How can you say that?
What is this?
That's his name, isn't it?
David Trask, The Pathfinder.
- It's the greatest honour
I could have.
- It's like you're his property.
How could you possibly
be okay with that?
- You have no idea
what you're talking about.
When the reckoning comes,
we will all live in White Light.
- Reckoning?
What's the reckoning?
- I'm ashamed of you.
- Kelly, what's the reckoning?!
[suspenseful music]
[crickets chirping]
[car alarm blaring]
[car beeps]
[whimpering]
[gun clicks]
[breathing heavily]
[loud shrill squealing]
[groaning]
[panting]
- Victor.
What were you thinking?
Why did you come?
- I was worried.
I needed to know you were okay.
Nina said she could take me
to you, but listen, I'm okay.
You need to go
before it's too late.
- It is too late.
Kelly talked about something
called the reckoning.
It sounds almost
like a doomsday.
- Trask must be paranoid.
I was supposed to meet
the editor of the Franklin
Chronicle later.
When I don't show up,
she'll go to the police.
They'll come looking.
- Okay.
[gasps]
- You scared me.
- You shouldn't be here, Ginny.
Ray doesn't trust me anymore,
and it won't be long
until he's onto you.
- What?
- I've done my best
to throw him off,
but I can only do so much
to keep you safe.
- You know this means
you still care about me.
- Ginny.
You need to keep up the act.
Don't let anyone catch you.
- I'm so sorry, Victor.
- I'm sorry about this.
- No!
[loud shrill squealing]
[screaming]
- Dinner's almost ready.
Is everything okay?
- No, actually.
Why... did you lie to me?
Did you think that Ray
wouldn't tell me?
Ray tells me everything.
- Everything?
[scoffs]
- I know...
that you want to handle
Victor on your own,
but everything needs
to come through me.
- I'm sorry. I...
- Trust is everything, Nina.
If you lie to me again...
I can't be responsible
for what happens.
- I understand.
Trust is everything.
- I haven't heard from Victor
Johnson in a few hours.
I also have a journalist
embedded in the organization,
they've been there
for some time.
I'm worried for their safety.
Yes, I understand it hasn't been
48 hours yet, but...
[sighs]
Okay. Fine.
[sighs]
Thanks for nothing.
[ominous music]
You scared me.
- I haven't got much time.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I am. But listen.
Trask performs a ceremony
he calls Calico
in a private wing
of the building.
I'm working on Ray
to let me join them.
- What kind of ritual?
- I don't know, but it might
lead to a clue
to where the money's going.
- Well, don't go.
It's too dangerous now.
I think Victor Johnson's
gone missing.
- They have him.
- We should let the police know.
- No, not just yet.
We just need a little
more evidence,
and we can take him down.
Victor seems safe for now.
But I gotta go.
- Wait, there's a woman. Ginny.
Do you know her?
Apparently, she started
as a recruit when you did.
- It must be Anna.
She must be using a fake name.
- She's Nina Budd's sister.
She's trying to rescue her
and get her out.
- Nina doesn't seem like someone
who needs rescuing.
- Talk to her.
Maybe she can help you.
- Okay.
- Good luck.
[crickets chirping]
[tense music]
- Hey. It's me, it's okay.
You're Nina's sister?
I'm a journalist
at The Chronicle.
Trask and Ray are going
to Calico tonight.
They invited me.
If anything happens,
you have to tell Olivia.
- Slow down, what are you
talking about? What's Calico?
- It's taking place
in the private wing.
- What happens there?
- I'm going to find out.
But if I can find proof
Trask is stealing the money
he makes from recruits,
we can take him down.
Wait, is that for Victor?
That's too risky.
Trask is getting more and more
paranoid.
I'm worried
he's planning something.
- A reckoning.
- He talks about it
from time to time.
The moment we enter White Light.
His version of the end
of the world.
Come on, we should go.
- It's the first Sunday,
so, as you know, I'm...
[unsettling music]
It's the first Sunday.
So, as you know, I'll be headed
on my monthly retreat
to observe Calico.
To reconnect with the source
and to remind myself
of the reasons that we're here.
As always, I'll be leaving you
in the capable hands of Nina.
The hardest path in humanity
is staying true to your vision,
even when others try
to shake you.
May your light shine
on the world.
- He changed his mind.
He wants you to stay here
and help Nina.
- Are you sure?
- I'm sure.
- One of the Spearheads
saw Paolo meeting
with Olivia Carmen today.
He did some digging.
His real name's Laurence Draper.
He's a journalist.
- He can't be.
- We're on a knife's edge here.
[scoffs]
God...
There's a traitor hiding out in
our midst, and no one sees it?
You and Ray, Kelly,
you're sleeping on the job.
Everything that we have
built here
relies on us staying vigilant.
[sighs]
It needs to be handled.
I want you to deal with it
while Ray and I are busy
at Calico.
- How do you want me
to deal with it?
[ominous music]
- I'm done playing nice.
We need to show them that
we will do whatever it takes
to protect
what we have built here.
And not just Paolo. Victor too.
Can you do it?
[]
[crickets chirping]
- Ray, I just feel like
everything's collapsing.
People are doubting.
People are hiding things.
The vultures are circling.
- We can pull back.
- We're getting close
to the reckoning.
- Are you serious?
- Yeah.
We always knew that this would
happen eventually,
and I've been waiting,
but now I can feel it.
- Are you really sure
about this?
- There is no pure expression
of what we believe in
and how much we believe in it.
I will not let them take away
everything that we have built,
everything that we have
worked for. I just won't, Ray.
[crickets chirping]
- When?
- I don't know.
We'll have to see.
[unsettling music]
- Hey, hey. You seem tense.
Let's go have a drink, huh?
- Calico.
[]
[exhales deeply]
[]
- Corinne.
[computer beeps]
- You don't have to do this,
Nina.
- Quiet.
- What would Anna think?
I know she's your sister.
She must really love you to...
- No, I said quiet.
- You're not a killer, Nina.
- Quiet.
- Please, Nina. For your sake.
[grunts]
[panting]
- No, no. No, no, no.
[gunshot]
[Nina screams]
- Trask said you'd be too weak.
[panting]
[phone ringing tone]
There's something
you should know.
- Thank you, Kelly.
You've done the right thing.
[phone beeps]
Nina.
[recording plays]
- Ray?
- Hello, Corinne.
- No!
[screaming]
[gunshot]
[Ray]: May your light shine
on the world.
- Ray...
[recording ends]
[breathing heavily]
[ominous music]
- Hello, Ginny.
[loud shrill squealing]
[squealing stops]
- You really shouldn't
have come.
- Hey! Come back!
[car engine starts]
Hey!
[engine revving]
Come back!
Come back!
[sighs]
[soft music]
- You know, I find it remarkable
that you could pull
a stunt like this.
That you would go to these
lengths for your little sister.
You must love her very much.
- I'd do anything for her.
- That's a shame,
because I don't think
she feels the same way.
[Trask on recording]:
So, Ginny wasn't there for you?
[Nina]: My mom got sick,
she just ruined everything.
I hate her. I really hate her.
[recording ends]
- I don't know
what she's talking about.
- You don't want to know.
- I don't care
what she thinks of me.
I just want her free
from your poison.
- But I didn't poison her,
Ginny.
I never did a thing.
Nina was the easiest recruit
we ever made.
Making her feel special
was so easy.
We were there for her.
- You're a monster.
- Really?
[recording plays]
[Nina]: She abandoned us.
She left me to deal
with Mom alone.
[Trask]: What do you mean?
[Nina]: Mom didn't want her
to know she was sick.
She didn't want it to get
in the way of her dreams.
But I... I had to stay back
home to care for her, alone,
during the worst of it.
- What?
[Nina]: At least I got to spend
the last days with Mom.
Ginny didn't even get that.
Even when we told her to come
home, she never had time for u.
[recording stops]
- I can't imagine
what it's like to hear that.
[crying]
But it's not your fault,
you lost your mother too.
You had pain.
You also suffered.
And Ginny, who was there
to be there with you?
You never meant to hurt her.
- I didn't mean to.
It's not my fault.
[crying]
- No, it was never your fault.
[sobbing]
[crickets chirping]
There...
Now, Ginny, you took something
from my office.
I need you to give it back.
[soft music]
See?
Now, that wasn't so hard,
was it?
Get some rest now.
- What happened to her?
- I've got more important things
to worry about.
- David!
- I didn't know how sick
she was.
I would've come home earlier.
- I tried calling you,
but you were always so busy.
- I'm so sorry I wasn't there
for you.
I really miss you.
But if being here is
what you want, then...
that's your decision.
- I don't even know anymore.
I've never seen him like this.
- He really did lie to you,
Nina.
He steals the money from
the donations and the courses.
None of it goes to the mission.
He doesn't observe Calico,
he's just counting his money.
And it was Ray
who killed Corinne.
- What are you talking about?
- I'll show you. We just have
to find the memory stick.
- Come with me.
David?
- Do you know where he keeps
the phones?
Nina. My phone.
Get my phone.
- Yeah.
[tense music]
- I need to call the police.
- No.
- You have to listen to this.
Trust me.
- Go.
[computer beeps]
[recording plays]
- Ray?
- Hello, Corinne.
- No! Ray!
[gunshot]
[Ray]: May your light shine
on the world.
- Nina?
[gasps]
How did you get that?
- Ray murdered Corinne.
- Oh, Nina.
[gun clicks]
[coughing]
[breathing heavily]
- When a handful of us built
this place,
we always knew that
we would face a choice.
Succeed in our mission to change
the world outside, or...
step into the White Light
together, on our own terms.
And now, the entire world
will hear
that this was not a failure.
No. It was a grand success.
Our final message will spread
across the globe
and resonate through
eternity, so everyone,
all people will know that
we have found our true selves.
We have trodden the path
to fulfilment.
And now it's time
for the reckoning.
To embrace White Light.
May everyone say with me...
May our light shine
on the world.
[all]: May our light
shine on the world.
- Trust in me, but more so,
trust in the White Light.
- Hi. My name is Ginny Budd.
I need the police.
[Trask]: ...this special moment.
[breathing heavily]
May your light shine
on the world.
- Don't move.
- May your light shine
on the world.
Kelly. I forgot to mention...
I've given you the privilege
of staying here.
- Of?
- To observe, to make sure
the mission is a success.
- Of course, Pathfinder.
- May your light
shine on the world.
[suspenseful music]
- You know what to do.
- Hmm.
Drink, everybody.
May your light
shine on the world.
Make sure she drinks.
- Oh, you have the plane
tickets?
- Yeah.
- Mexico, here we come.
Ray, what did you do?
These aren't for me and you,
these are for you and Kelly.
- Welcome to the White Light.
[thuds]
[Trask gurgles]
- This is how it feels to be
stabbed in the back.
[blade slices]
[grunts]
- Hey!
[grunts]
[panting]
[grunting]
[shouting]
[screaming]
[soft music]
- This isn't right.
This isn't right.
This isn't right.
The Pathfinder's gone.
He's abandoned us.
Can't you see? He lied to us.
Stop drinking.
Stop drinking.
[Ginny screaming]
Ginny.
Move.
I said move.
[glass shatters]
[screaming]
[grunting]
- Tie her up!
Tie her up!
Are you okay?
I'm gonna go get Victor.
[panting]
[coughing]
Victor.
[coughing]
Stay with me. I need your help
to get you out of here, okay?
[Victor coughing]
[coughing]
Okay, lift.
[grunting]
[indistinct chatter]
[soft music]
[handcuffs clicking]
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
- Why didn't you just
give up on me?
- Because you're my sister.
We're gonna figure this out,
okay?
I love you.
- I'm proud of you.
Let me take you home.
[birds chirping]
If you're looking for closure,
this is one of the steps
in deprogramming.
- Are you sure
you want to do this?
- I'm sure.
[Nina sighs]
It's weird.
I still can't believe I was
really a part of all this.
- You're free now.
That's all that matters.
- And I'm grateful for that,
it's just...
Every day is...
- One foot in front
of the other.
- You're right.
[chuckles]
I'm proud of my progress.
- I'm proud of you too.
- Let's go.
[chuckling]
[tense music]
[soft mysterious music]
[elevator dings]
[indistinct chatter]
- Hello?
- Hey, it's Nina.
Please leave a message.
- It's Ginny. Where are you?
Your school counselor said
you dropped out
and no one's seen you.
Just call me back.
Tell me where you are.
I'm worried.
I miss you, sis.
[dramatic music]
- Welcome to Becoming You! Hi.
- Thank you.
I'm so excited to be here.
- Oh, we're excited
to have you...
- Oh, I'm Anna.
- Kelly. So great to meet you.
Do you have ID
for the register?
- Absolutely.
I look like a serial killer
here.
Promise I'm not, though.
- Mm-hmm.
- Sorry.
- For you.
- Thanks.
- Oh.
And for you.
[chuckling]
[clapping]
Welcome. Hi!
What a beautiful sea of faces.
Hi, everybody. I'm Kelly.
Have you ever felt
that you're taping into
only a fraction
of your potential?
Yes? Ever wondered why
some people seem to get
everything they want,
and you can't?
- Yes.
[crowd]: Yes.
- Six years ago,
I was just like you.
I set out to try and make it,
be the next 40 under 40.
But it just wasn't happening.
I blamed everyone.
Everyone, but me.
Then I came on this course,
and my life has never been
so happy or fulfilled.
And we're gonna do
the same for you.
Get ready to blow your minds.
[clapping]
- Great day, huh?
- Sure beats going to class.
- Oh, are you a student
right now?
- Jennaman College.
Paolo, by the way.
- Right. Anna.
- Have a good night.
- You too.
Thank you for today.
I've learned so much.
- Aw, and that's just day one.
Next time, we'll be diving
into a questionnaire
that we've specially developed
to get to know the real you.
- Hmm.
- Your life is gonna change.
Best $300 you've ever spent.
- See you soon.
[ominous music]
[door opening]
[door closing]
"Your life is gonna change."
I wanted to scream in her face.
And guess what?
First person I meet
goes to Jennaman.
- Of course.
It's initiation week.
Get them while they're green,
right?
It's been a long day.
Do you need anything?
- Can I get a bottle of water
or something?
- Yeah, of course.
- Thanks, Victor.
- And are you okay?
Fake ID worked okay?
- We'll find out.
Let's hope we covered
every base.
- You'll be fine.
As far as they know,
you are Anna Ransome.
Former law student,
currently working in marketing.
All calls will go through me.
We've set up fake social media
accounts, fake ID...
- I know. I just... don't know
if I can keep up the act.
- Well, do you want to?
- I have to.
- Okay. Then...
just play it cool.
You'll be fine.
We've been preparing for this
for three months.
I know these cults
inside and out.
It's what I do.
Speaking of which...
Tomorrow, they'll give you
the questionnaire.
- Okay...
- Made you a cheat sheet.
That's everything Corinne
told me during deprogramming.
What they're going to tell you
is that the questionnaire
is designed to help
find the real you.
What it's actually for
is helping them figure out
what makes you susceptible
during the next stage,
which is where the real
indoctrination begins.
- So I have to memorize
these answers
and get the perfect score.
- Exactly.
We're gonna find your sister,
Ginny.
- It's her birthday on Friday.
My dad's beside himself.
I have to bring her home.
- We haven't given up.
- Can't say the same
for the police.
- We won't give up.
I promise.
- And today, we have with us
the great Ray Wilson,
our most senior Spearhead.
[clapping]
- Thank you, Kelly.
Hello, everyone.
I have so much to share
with you.
Today, we are going to find out
who you really are.
Let's get started.
[clapping]
- Your questionnaire, Anna.
Thank you.
[Kelly clears her throat]
- Thank you.
Alright.
Anna, you're up.
[Ray clears his throat]
Anna.
You loved English Literature
but you ended up doing
a law degree.
- It seemed like
the sensible thing to do.
- But it's not what you wanted.
So why did you do it?
- My dad believes in hard work
and a good education.
- Is it your dad's life?
- No.
- And what about your mom?
- She passed away.
- She was an English teacher.
Do you think she'd be happy that
you ended up doing a law degree?
Maybe that's why she didn't
put up more of a fight
when she got sick.
If you didn't think you were
worth fighting for,
maybe neither did she.
The choices we make
are our choices.
Not Mom's, not Dad's. Ours.
When we own them,
we can change them.
Thank you, Anna.
[indistinct conversation]
- Anna?
Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm just...
Today was intense.
- Shall we walk together?
- I didn't realize it was gonna
get that heavy.
- Aw. We deliberately
don't warn you.
If your guard's up,
it doesn't work.
- I spent so long trying not
to think about losing my mom.
It's hard when it's suddenly
right there in front of you.
- Well, we can't become
our best selves
without taking some time
to look at the bad stuff.
It pays off. I promise.
- So how did you become
a teacher?
- Mmm, well,
after Becoming You,
I joined the retreat called
Route to Fulfillment
where you can train
to become a trailblazer.
If you think Becoming You
is intense, well...
you should try that.
[Kelly chuckles]
Takes place at
a beautiful lake house,
and people are amazing.
It's magical.
- And this is all connected
to White Light
and David Trask, right?
- We call him The Pathfinder.
He created all of this.
He's a genius.
- Isn't there an investigation?
Some sort of legal case?
Sorry, I just read an article...
- No, honestly, anytime someone
tries to do something different,
there's always naysayers.
Some people are just
so threatened.
We're trying to help people
find their true calling,
and... harness that knowledge
to forge a better world.
One built with community
and togetherness,
not money and power.
- You know, I studied law.
I'm sure White Light
has their own legal team...
- Well, actually, yes.
But... currently, as things are,
they haven't met
The Pathfinder's expectations.
- Well, if there is ever
anything I can do to help...
Look over documents
or give legal advice.
- Thank you, Anna.
I'll tell Ray.
- Well, I should go.
I am exhausted.
- May your light shine
on the world.
[screaming]
Get off me!
- Hey!
[spraying]
Are you okay?
Should I call the police?
- No, no, no. I'm fine.
Oh, thank goodness
you were here, Anna.
Thank you.
[sighs]
- I'm so glad you're okay.
- Me too. Thank you.
- Gosh.
- Are you okay to...
- Yeah. He's gone. I'll be fine.
- Okay. Thank you.
- Get home safe.
- You too.
[panting]
[door closes]
[soft mysterious music]
[sighing]
- You think she bought it?
- I think so.
- Good.
[sighing]
[birds chirping]
[Ray]: I'm sure it must've been
scary, but we're here today.
[Kelly chuckles]
Here she is.
[clapping]
Alright, everyone sit, please.
Anna, we all heard what
you did last night.
Absolutely incredible.
And we all love Kelly very much,
and we couldn't do any
of this without her.
Now, action changes lives,
and Anna demonstrated that
last night.
As a sign of our gratitude,
if you'd like to go further down
the route to fulfillment,
we would like to offer you
a free place
on our next retreat.
May your light shine
on the world.
- Thank you.
- I told Ray about
your legal knowledge.
He'd like to chat.
- I'd be honoured.
- Okay.
- Also, great work to Kelly,
who after teaching
her tenth course,
moves up from Trailblazer
to Spearhead.
[clapping and cheering]
[door creaking]
[suspenseful music]
- They took all
my White Light notes.
- Is there somewhere you can go?
It's too risky for you
to come to my house.
- No.
They were gonna find me
sooner or later.
They always do.
We just need to make sure
they don't find you.
This free spot has me worried.
Trask usually squeezes every
penny out of his recruits.
Are you sure
they're not onto you?
You're drawing
a lot of attention.
- I don't have a choice.
I can't spend years climbing
the ranks like Kelly.
I have to find Nina now.
[birds chirping]
- To reach our true potential,
to become our best selves,
we need to have an honest
experience away from naysayers.
Now, those who make up stories
about White Light,
who try to turn people
against us,
are just afraid
of what we show them.
That the world doesn't need
to be greedy or cruel.
It can be loving. Generous.
So...
let's cast them out
of our lives. Hmm?
Guard your life.
[all]: Guard our lives!
[Paolo]: I'm scared
I'll never find love.
[all]: Weak.
- I'm scared my life will
never amount to anything.
[all]: Weak.
- I'm scared I'll never live up
to my dad's expectations.
[all]: Weak.
- I get scared I'm not
good enough.
[all]: Weak.
- I worry about my appearance.
[all]: Weak.
- I care what other people
think of me.
[all]: Weak.
[Ray]: We love you, Anna.
[all]: We love you, Anna.
[insects chirping]
[device beeps]
[exhales]
- Come up.
Wow. Look at you.
I mean, you are... glowing.
I can see that being here
agrees with you.
Please, sit.
- Thanks.
- So,
how are you finding The Path?
- I feel really good.
I love all the classes
and the exercises.
- Even Resilience?
- It's hard.
But... I can see how
it's making me stronger.
- There's no progress
without pain.
You have such an incredible
energy.
And such a positive
aura about you.
Kelly says you've been
a fantastic addition
to the group.
[chuckles]
Do you know what we're trying
to do here?
- I think so.
- We want to change the world.
I know that sounds clich,
but...
that is our mission.
We want people to see the world
the way it used to be.
Communal. Tribal.
- It's beautiful.
- Kelly also mentioned
that you studied law.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, The Pathfinder and I
are curious
to get your perspective
on something.
There was a girl.
A wonderful soul
who we all loved dearly.
But...
her parents refused to let her
make her own choices.
Please.
They turned her against us.
Against herself.
Snuffed out her light.
- Corinne Wragg.
I've read about her.
- Lies, most certainly.
The papers will make up
just about anything.
I do feel bad
for her mom and dad.
The Pathfinder's trying to keep
this from getting to court.
It would be...
It would be too painful
for them.
Do you want to help
the cause, Anna?
- Yes.
- You're gonna do great here.
[phone ringing]
- Are you okay?
- I just left Ray's office.
He showed me Corinne's file,
it was in a locked cabinet.
- That's great.
- Maybe one of the files in
his office says where Nina is.
I just have to get the keys,
but they're always
in his jacket.
- There is something
that Corinne told me.
Ray used to take everyone out
for these intense runs.
Push them for miles.
- We haven't done one yet.
- Might be worth a try.
[ominous music]
[birds calling]
- This was a wonderful idea,
Anna.
A good run invigorates
the soul.
- Ah! Twisted my ankle.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah. I'll be fine.
I'll wait at the house.
You go ahead.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
[suspenseful music]
The Sanctuary...
[Ray]: Alright, great work,
everyone.
Nice work, let's get inside.
[keys jingling]
- Hey. You're back early.
- How's the ankle?
- It's a little sore,
but I don't think
it's anything serious.
- Good.
[birds chirping]
[waves lapping]
Now today is our last day
together,
but it doesn't end here.
Some of you will carry on
our mission
by bringing in new recruits,
while others will want
to live in the light
every moment of the day.
Well, The Pathfinder has created
a place where that can happen.
The Sanctuary.
It's a place where
we can grow in tune
with The Pathfinder's
principles,
and find our inner light.
We live off the land,
we meditate.
It's living on this planet
the way we ought to be.
Now, there are a few
spaces available
for newly qualified recruits.
Anyone who wants can undertake
an initiation tonight
in the woods at the top
of the hill.
It'll be tough,
it will be scary,
but it's a whole new beginning.
[crickets chirping]
Trust yourselves.
Trust the process.
It's a beautiful thing.
Let's begin.
[suspenseful music]
[breathing heavily]
[bell ringing softly]
In the moment before death,
we see a white light
at the end of the tunnel.
Only when we look
death in the eye
can we truly appreciate life.
If you can't take it anymore,
just ring the bell.
[music intensifies]
[gasping]
[pained gasping]
[panting]
[loud shrill squealing]
[screaming]
[screaming]
[intense music]
[screaming]
[eerie droning music]
[birds chirping]
- Welcome to White Light.
[breathing shakily]
We knew you had guts, Anna.
But still.
Incredible work at initiation.
[chuckles]
Now...
As Trailblazers,
anything we own,
anything we earn,
helps to support our community.
We share absolutely everything.
And on that note,
did you bring your banking
details that we requested?
[Victor]: When Corinne
became a Trailblazer,
that's when they got a hold of
the photos and the bank detail.
They dress it up as a trust
exercise, but it's blackmail.
Plain and simple.
- So we have to give them
something incriminating?
I have an idea.
It happened to someone
I worked with.
- You can trust us
with absolutely anything.
Mistakes you've made.
We share those mistakes
together.
Like what happened
at your first job,
at Sigmund and Sons.
- How do you know about that?
- Oh, Anna. There is no shame
in a gambling addiction.
I mean, it can happen to anyone.
They were wrong to fire you.
They should've shown you
compassion.
We promise here that no one
will ever find out.
- Thank you.
- No, thank you.
- Oh, I thought about
Corinne Wragg's case.
I doubt the police have reached
the threshold
for manslaughter charges.
But if you're worried,
you can file a defamation suit,
to keep them busy.
- Thank you, Anna.
- I don't like you going
there alone.
No one knows what happens
at The Sanctuary.
Corinne would never
talk about it.
- Nina is there, Victor.
I'm going tomorrow.
And you know you can't come
anywhere near me.
It's too risky.
For both of us.
[sighs]
- If Nina is there...
she's at the heart
of White Light.
Only the top recruits make
it there. Yourself included.
- Last night was so hard.
If I hadn't known
what to expect...
Thank you.
- It's okay.
Even if you do find her,
she's not just gonna
walk out the door with you.
We have no idea
what they've done to her.
- I just have to get to her.
She'll listen to me.
She has to.
- I'll follow you there.
I'll be nearby.
- Victor...
- I'll send you my location,
that way you can
keep me updated.
Just so I know you're safe.
I mean it, Ginny.
[tense music]
- Anna. Hi.
- Hi.
Wow, this is... impressive.
- Some of our wealthier members
give donations.
The Pathfinder can be very
persuasive for the cause.
- Alright.
Everybody gather around.
The most extraordinary man
I know,
The Pathfinder himself,
David Trask.
- I keep telling him
not to say that.
[others chuckling]
Thank you, Ray.
Hi.
May your light shine
on the world.
May your light shine
on the world.
May your light shine
on the world.
May your light shine
on the world.
Anna.
May your light shine
on the world.
You did a great job
with the Wragg's case.
We filed our countersuit
yesterday.
I'd like to thank you
personally.
Come and see me in my residence.
- I'd like that.
- Ray will show you
where to sleep
and give you your roles
in the community.
We eat twice a day,
at six AM and six PM.
And there's Resilience
every night.
Make yourselves at home.
- May your light shine
on the world.
Now, uh, if you would please
hand over all
of your cellphones.
[phone buzzing]
Technology kills the moment.
I promise you,
you won't miss them.
Thank you.
Kelly.
Alright.
Let me show you the Paradise.
[unsettling music]
[insects chirping]
[indistinct chatter]
- New recruits.
We eat in silence
to be aware of each mouthful,
and the goodness
and energy it brings.
No meat.
All animals are equal to us.
[cutlery clinking]
[dramatic music]
- Hey!
- Oh, this can't be happening.
- It's me. Please.
- You shouldn't be here.
- I just wanted to see you.
Make sure you're okay.
- Well, I'm fine,
so you can go now.
- That's it?
After two years,
I have been so worried
about you.
- I don't even understand.
What about the questionnaire?
How did no one spot it?
- I lied.
I made up a name
and told them
what they wanted to hear.
But only so I could see you.
- But you must've gone through
initiation.
- What, being tied to a tree
and scared half to death?
What kind of people
do that to each other?
- You haven't changed.
- You can't fall in for this.
Come home.
- You're not my sister anymore.
You're no one.
- Nina!
Oh, so good to see you.
- How long are you
staying here for?
- Oh, just until
the next course. A month.
- I've been reading recruit
files. Tell me about Anna.
Is she committed?
- Oh my goodness, 100 percent.
She really gets the mission.
She's a true believer.
- You know she saved Kelly.
There's no problem, is there?
- No. No, she just reminds me
of someone I know, that's all.
May your light shine
on the world.
[crickets chirping]
- Resilience is all about
breaking ourselves down
to build us up again.
It's our greatest weapon against
the naysayers who hurt us.
Anna?
Before, you told us
your weaknesses.
But here, we tell you.
Knowing how other people see us,
it helps us grow.
Anyone want to start?
How do you see Anna?
How can she improve?
- You're smug.
You think you're better
than everyone.
- Thank you.
- When I first saw you,
I didn't like how
you wear your hair.
It makes you look ugly.
- Thank you.
- Sometimes you come off
a little... false.
- Thank you.
- I don't trust you.
And I don't think you've earned
the right to be here.
- Thank you.
- Very good, Nina.
Very good, everyone.
It's that time again.
Let us all drape her
with our love.
Come.
[all]: We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
[echoing]: We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
We love you, Anna.
[suspenseful music]
- Hi.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
- Did you find Nina?
- She's fine. She's just...
so... cold and angry.
It's not like her at all.
Maybe my dad was right.
Maybe this was all for nothing.
- We always knew
this was a possibility.
But your dad chose
to run away from this.
You're not going to.
- I'm not giving up on her.
I just need her to see
how crazy this all is.
- We're not the only ones
who are onto them, by the way.
She might be worth talking to.
- In the meantime,
keep a low profile.
I can't keep coming back.
They watch us like hawks.
- Don't take any chances, okay?
- I won't.
[suspenseful music]
[inaudible conversation]
- Anna.
- Oh! You scared me.
- You shouldn't be out
after curfew.
Pathfinder wouldn't like it.
- I thought I heard something.
Just went to take a look.
It won't happen again.
[birds chirping]
[loud horn blaring]
[gasping]
- What time is it?
- Oh...
time is immaterial.
Nina wants you at the car
in 15 minutes.
- Kelly.
I saw you in the private wing
last night.
- Were you spying on me?
- It was an accident.
What's going on?
- Well, it's part
of the Mission.
It's private.
No one's supposed to know.
- Are you and The Pathfinder...
- Anna. I said we can't
talk about it.
Please don't bring it up again.
For both of our sakes.
- I'm sorry. I won't.
- Well, go on. Hurry up.
They're waiting for you.
- The local newspaper,
The Franklin Chronicle,
is run by Olivia Carmen.
She's a classic naysayer.
Prints things about White Light
that have no basis in fact,
makes up stories about what goes
on here, calls us a cult...
There she is.
- Corinne talked to Olivia
when she ran away.
Now we think she's passing on
these lies to the cops.
- The authorities hate
movements like ours.
We threaten the status quo.
- We need Olivia
to call this off,
so we're just giving her
a little nudge
in the right direction.
[Nina]: David was right.
She's trying to get
the police involved.
Anna. You come with me.
Hold this. Be careful.
- What is it?
- Just hold it.
- If you hate me so much,
why haven't you told them
who I am?
- Because you put me in
an impossible situation.
And I think you could actually
benefit from being there.
- Look, I'm just trying
to understand
how you left without
even telling me.
- Because I chose a different
path than you?
Didn't do what you wanted?
- I never made you do anything.
- "There is none so blind
as those who will not see."
- What are you talking about?
- I finally found a place
where I feel valued.
When I came here,
David was about to give up.
- Has it crossed your mind that
you're all being manipulated?
If it wasn't for Trask,
Corinne might still be alive.
- Hey come on, hurry up.
Let's go.
- Now, come with me.
- Why did you pick me?
- Because you lied about
the gambling habit.
This is a real crime
to answer for.
[device beeping]
[car unlocks]
- How did you do that?
- Stop asking questions.
Now, put it in the car.
- What is it?
You're crazy.
I can't do this.
- You have to.
- I'm not doing this.
- Put it in the car.
- Nina. Don't make me do this.
- You have to.
- I can't.
[heavy breathing]
[engine starts]
[engine revving]
[phone ringing tone]
[crickets chirping]
- Today was hard.
If any of you have
any questions,
now would be the time.
- Paolo.
- I know that woman's
corruptive.
But I'm just worried.
What if she got hurt?
- She hurts us every day,
sharing her one-sided opinions
without even having
a conversation with us.
Are we supposed to allow this?
- No.
But was it venomous?
- It will have given her
a shock, that's all.
We do not seek enemies, Paolo,
but when they come for us,
we must stand up
for ourselves, no? Yes?
[all]: Yes.
[sighs]
[tense music]
- Next time...
she will weigh her options
more thoughtfully.
- Paolo, can I talk to you?
- Yeah.
- If you question
The Pathfinder,
we will throw you in the cage.
Do you understand?
- Yeah.
- Good.
[breathing heavily]
[Trask]: I hate
all these slip-ups.
Corinne, Olivia Carmen,
that so-called expert,
Victor Johnson.
And now Anna is being
suspicious?
Ray said she was... scared.
- It was a big step-up.
- Yeah, well, if she can't
handle the pressure,
she shouldn't be here.
- We can tell her to leave.
[sighs]
- No. Tell her to come see me.
I'm tense, I just need to relax.
- Come on. The Sylphs are ready.
- You know I'd be lost
without you.
- Me too.
[footsteps approaching]
[]
- Did you say you checked
Anna out?
- Social media, job history,
education. No red flags.
- Check again.
[]
[crickets chirping]
[door closes]
[buzzing]
[buzzing]
[sinister music]
[gasps]
[birds chirping]
[soft music]
- Can I help?
Thought you'd be too important
to do a job like this.
- No one is too important here.
- I don't see him doing it.
Nina, will you come and see
a friend of mine with me?
- What? Who?
- Somebody who really
understands White Light,
and can hopefully give you
a new perspective.
- Why would I need
a new perspective?
Why can't you understand
I am right where I belong?
- When Mom died,
something broke in us.
In all of us.
I want us to finally heal,
as a family.
- We have a more honest
experience away from our family.
- Nina, are you and Trask...
- Stop it, Anna.
- I mean, I wouldn't blame you.
Minus the fact that he's clearly
a sociopath, he's kind of hot.
- Hmm, you're debasing yourself.
- What about Ray?
There's something going on
with him and Kelly, right?
- Kelly is not Ray's type.
- Do you remember
Darren Painter?
- Summer camp?
- Now, he was hot.
[laughing]
[clears throat]
- The Pathfinder
would like to see you.
- Okay. I'll go see him.
If you come with me to see
my friend Victor.
- The difference is you don't
get a choice.
- Sure I do.
Go see Trask,
or go to the cage.
Right?
- How do you know about that?
- The important thing
is I'm not afraid.
I'll only see Trask if you come
with me to see Victor.
[sighs]
- Fine.
[soft unsettling music]
- I need an explanation.
- I have no idea who he is.
- This is the guy looking
into Corinne's death.
Why does he have
such an interest in you?
- I don't know.
Don't tell David about this,
just let me handle it.
- You make sure you do.
- This is risky.
- I know, but we made a deal.
Come on!
Nina, we can't be out here.
Come.
- I can't.
- You have to come with me.
- I can't.
- You can...
- Who's there?!
- Run.
- Nina. What are you doing?
- You said I had to deal
with the naysayer,
so I'm dealing with it.
- By sneaking off in the night?
Does Trask know?
- I thought it would be easier
if I handled this myself.
- I'll have to let him know
you tried to leave.
- Ray... please.
He doesn't need that right now.
- Are you afraid he won't
love you anymore, Spearhead?
- You know how much
he means to me.
- He means that much
to all of us!
You're right.
He wouldn't want to know
about this.
It would shatter him,
and we need all of his strength
right now.
Look, deal with it tomorrow.
But do not go behind
my back again.
Otherwise, you know
what'll happen.
[birds chirping]
[phone ringing]
- Olivia Carmen.
Uh, I don't know anyone
called Victor Johnson.
Okay. I suppose you should
put him through.
- Mrs. Carmen,
this is Victor Johnson.
Thank you for taking my call.
- Should I know you?
- No.
But I read your articles
on White Light
in the Franklin Chronicle.
I think I have some information
you might be interested in.
- Go on.
- A friend of mine, Ginny,
she's embedded herself
in White Light.
She's there to save
her sister, Nina Budd.
I haven't heard from her
in days.
- Interesting.
Okay, Mr. Johnson.
Can you meet at my office
this afternoon at three?
- Will do. See you then.
[sighs]
[knocking on glass]
[sighs]
[device beeps]
As dangerous
as this whole thing is,
the time when
you're most vulnerable
is when you're alone with Trask.
[suspenseful music]
All cults are built around
a single charismatic leader
who is an expert
at manipulating minds.
And they have all sorts of
techniques at their disposal.
Things like disorientation.
Waking you up early,
disrupting your sleep patterns.
Or physical control,
like telling you what you can
wear, what you get to eat...
But the greatest danger of all
is when they get in your mind.
- It must have been hard.
You lost your mother so early.
[Victor]: They'll use things
they learned about you
from the questionnaire,
or from thoughts
you don't even remember sharin.
- But you still have
your father,
and a little sister.
What's her name?
- Jennifer.
- Trask will aim to go to
the deepest parts of your soul.
Your darkest secrets.
Your worst nightmares.
He wants you naked, vulnerable.
So broken that he can plant
the seed of any idea he wants.
Because then, he controls you.
Then you belong to him.
- Tell me about
your relationship.
I'm curious.
- We used to be close,
but we've grown apart.
- How so?
- There was a guy.
He got inside her head.
Started to control her.
She changed.
- In what way?
- I don't know.
- Perhaps she had to.
There's a fine line between
caring about someone
and wanting to control them.
- It doesn't matter how strong
you think you are,
you'll need nerves of steel
to resist him.
- But sometimes, the people
who care about us the most
end up hurting us the most.
Especially when they're
keeping us from being free.
- It wasn't like that.
- We have a more honest
experience
when we're away
from our families.
Come.
Let me show you something.
[birds calling]
[soft music]
- I went to see Trask.
Now it's time for you to keep
your side of the bargain.
- I did.
- Everyone...
this is Victor Johnson.
He calls himself an expert.
An expert on things
he doesn't know anything about.
This leech has made it
his life's work
to attack our mission.
And now we find him creeping
into our home to spy.
I think he deserves a particular
type of punishment.
Paolo, what punishment
do you think it appropriate?
- The cage.
Put him in the cage.
- Hmm. And you, Anna?
What do you think?
- Put him in the cage.
- Very well.
Take your time in there.
Think about the pain
that you've caused us.
Oh, uh, Ray?
You may as well give him
some music to listen to.
[loud shrill squealing]
[tense music]
- Don't be weak, Anna.
Don't waste your tears
on that naysayer.
- How can you say that?
What is this?
That's his name, isn't it?
David Trask, The Pathfinder.
- It's the greatest honour
I could have.
- It's like you're his property.
How could you possibly
be okay with that?
- You have no idea
what you're talking about.
When the reckoning comes,
we will all live in White Light.
- Reckoning?
What's the reckoning?
- I'm ashamed of you.
- Kelly, what's the reckoning?!

[breathing heavily]
[loud shrill squealing]
[groaning]
[panting]
- Victor.
What were you thinking?
Why did you come?
- I was worried.
I needed to know you were okay.
Nina said she could take me
to you, but listen, I'm okay.
You need to go
before it's too late.
- It is too late.
Kelly talked about something
called the reckoning.
It sounds almost
like a doomsday.
- Trask must be paranoid.
I was supposed to meet
the editor of the Franklin
Chronicle later.
When I don't show up,
she'll go to the police.
They'll come looking.
- Okay.
[gasps]
- You scared me.
- You shouldn't be here, Ginny.
Ray doesn't trust me anymore,
and it won't be long
until he's onto you.
- What?
- I've done my best
to throw him off,
but I can only do so much
to keep you safe.
- You know this means
you still care about me.
- Ginny.
You need to keep up the act.
Don't let anyone catch you.
- I'm so sorry, Victor.
- I'm sorry about this.
- No!
[loud shrill squealing]
[screaming]
- Dinner's almost ready.
Is everything okay?
- No, actually.
Why... did you lie to me?
Did you think that Ray
wouldn't tell me?
Ray tells me everything.
- Everything?
[scoffs]
- I know...
that you want to handle
Victor on your own,
but everything needs
to come through me.
- I'm sorry. I...
- Trust is everything, Nina.
If you lie to me again...
I can't be responsible
for what happens.
- I understand.
Trust is everything.
- I haven't heard from Victor
Johnson in a few hours.
I also have a journalist
embedded in the organization,
they've been there
for some time.
I'm worried for their safety.
Yes, I understand it hasn't been
48 hours yet, but...
[sighs]
Okay. Fine.
[sighs]
Thanks for nothing.
[ominous music]
You scared me.
- I haven't got much time.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I am. But listen.
Trask performs a ceremony
he calls Calico
in a private wing
of the building.
I'm working on Ray
to let me join them.
- What kind of ritual?
- I don't know, but it might
lead to a clue
to where the money's going.
- Well, don't go.
It's too dangerous now.
I think Victor Johnson's
gone missing.
- They have him.
- We should let the police know.
- No, not just yet.
We just need a little
more evidence,
and we can take him down.
Victor seems safe for now.
But I gotta go.
- Wait, there's a woman. Ginny.
Do you know her?
Apparently, she started
as a recruit when you did.
- It must be Anna.
She must be using a fake name.
- She's Nina Budd's sister.
She's trying to rescue her
and get her out.
- Nina doesn't seem like someone
who needs rescuing.
- Talk to her.
Maybe she can help you.
- Okay.
- Good luck.
[crickets chirping]
[tense music]
- Hey. It's me, it's okay.
You're Nina's sister?
I'm a journalist
at The Chronicle.
Trask and Ray are going
to Calico tonight.
They invited me.
If anything happens,
you have to tell Olivia.
- Slow down, what are you
talking about? What's Calico?
- It's taking place
in the private wing.
- What happens there?
- I'm going to find out.
But if I can find proof
Trask is stealing the money
he makes from recruits,
we can take him down.
Wait, is that for Victor?
That's too risky.
Trask is getting more and more
paranoid.
I'm worried
he's planning something.
- A reckoning.
- He talks about it
from time to time.
The moment we enter White Light.
His version of the end
of the world.
Come on, we should go.
- It's the first Sunday,
so, as you know, I'm...
[unsettling music]
It's the first Sunday.
So, as you know, I'll be headed
on my monthly retreat
to observe Calico.
To reconnect with the source
and to remind myself
of the reasons that we're here.
As always, I'll be leaving you
in the capable hands of Nina.
The hardest path in humanity
is staying true to your vision,
even when others try
to shake you.
May your light shine
on the world.
- He changed his mind.
He wants you to stay here
and help Nina.
- Are you sure?
- I'm sure.
- One of the Spearheads
saw Paolo meeting
with Olivia Carmen today.
He did some digging.
His real name's Laurence Draper.
He's a journalist.
- He can't be.
- We're on a knife's edge here.
[scoffs]
God...
There's a traitor hiding out in
our midst, and no one sees it?
You and Ray, Kelly,
you're sleeping on the job.
Everything that we have
built here
relies on us staying vigilant.
[sighs]
It needs to be handled.
I want you to deal with it
while Ray and I are busy
at Calico.
- How do you want me
to deal with it?
[ominous music]
- I'm done playing nice.
We need to show them that
we will do whatever it takes
to protect
what we have built here.
And not just Paolo. Victor too.
Can you do it?
[]
[crickets chirping]
- Ray, I just feel like
everything's collapsing.
People are doubting.
People are hiding things.
The vultures are circling.
- We can pull back.
- We're getting close
to the reckoning.
- Are you serious?
- Yeah.
We always knew that this would
happen eventually,
and I've been waiting,
but now I can feel it.
- Are you really sure
about this?
- There is no pure expression
of what we believe in
and how much we believe in it.
I will not let them take away
everything that we have built,
everything that we have
worked for. I just won't, Ray.
[crickets chirping]
- When?
- I don't know.
We'll have to see.
[unsettling music]
- Hey, hey. You seem tense.
Let's go have a drink, huh?
- Calico.
[]
[exhales deeply]
[]
- Corinne.
[computer beeps]
- You don't have to do this,
Nina.
- Quiet.
- What would Anna think?
I know she's your sister.
She must really love you to...
- No, I said quiet.
- You're not a killer, Nina.
- Quiet.
- Please, Nina. For your sake.
[grunts]
[panting]
- No, no. No, no, no.
[gunshot]
[Nina screams]
- Trask said you'd be too weak.
[panting]
[phone ringing tone]
There's something
you should know.
- Thank you, Kelly.
You've done the right thing.
[phone beeps]
Nina.
[recording plays]
- Ray?
- Hello, Corinne.
- No!
[screaming]
[gunshot]
[Ray]: May your light shine
on the world.
- Ray...
[recording ends]
[breathing heavily]
[ominous music]
- Hello, Ginny.
[loud shrill squealing]
[squealing stops]
- You really shouldn't
have come.
- Hey! Come back!
[car engine starts]
Hey!
[engine revving]
Come back!
Come back!
[sighs]
[soft music]
- You know, I find it remarkable
that you could pull
a stunt like this.
That you would go to these
lengths for your little sister.
You must love her very much.
- I'd do anything for her.
- That's a shame,
because I don't think
she feels the same way.
[Trask on recording]:
So, Ginny wasn't there for you?
[Nina]: My mom got sick,
she just ruined everything.
I hate her. I really hate her.
[recording ends]
- I don't know
what she's talking about.
- You don't want to know.
- I don't care
what she thinks of me.
I just want her free
from your poison.
- But I didn't poison her,
Ginny.
I never did a thing.
Nina was the easiest recruit
we ever made.
Making her feel special
was so easy.
We were there for her.
- You're a monster.
- Really?
[recording plays]
[Nina]: She abandoned us.
She left me to deal
with Mom alone.
[Trask]: What do you mean?
[Nina]: Mom didn't want her
to know she was sick.
She didn't want it to get
in the way of her dreams.
But I... I had to stay back
home to care for her, alone,
during the worst of it.
- What?
[Nina]: At least I got to spend
the last days with Mom.
Ginny didn't even get that.
Even when we told her to come
home, she never had time for u.
[recording stops]
- I can't imagine
what it's like to hear that.
[crying]
But it's not your fault,
you lost your mother too.
You had pain.
You also suffered.
And Ginny, who was there
to be there with you?
You never meant to hurt her.
- I didn't mean to.
It's not my fault.
[crying]
- No, it was never your fault.
[sobbing]
[crickets chirping]
There...
Now, Ginny, you took something
from my office.
I need you to give it back.
[soft music]
See?
Now, that wasn't so hard,
was it?
Get some rest now.
- What happened to her?
- I've got more important things
to worry about.
- David!
- I didn't know how sick
she was.
I would've come home earlier.
- I tried calling you,
but you were always so busy.
- I'm so sorry I wasn't there
for you.
I really miss you.
But if being here is
what you want, then...
that's your decision.
- I don't even know anymore.
I've never seen him like this.
- He really did lie to you,
Nina.
He steals the money from
the donations and the courses.
None of it goes to the mission.
He doesn't observe Calico,
he's just counting his money.
And it was Ray
who killed Corinne.
- What are you talking about?
- I'll show you. We just have
to find the memory stick.
- Come with me.
David?
- Do you know where he keeps
the phones?
Nina. My phone.
Get my phone.
- Yeah.
[tense music]
- I need to call the police.
- No.
- You have to listen to this.
Trust me.
- Go.
[computer beeps]
[recording plays]
- Ray?
- Hello, Corinne.
- No! Ray!
[gunshot]
[Ray]: May your light shine
on the world.
- Nina?
[gasps]
How did you get that?
- Ray murdered Corinne.
- Oh, Nina.
[gun clicks]
[coughing]
[breathing heavily]
- When a handful of us built
this place,
we always knew that
we would face a choice.
Succeed in our mission to change
the world outside, or...
step into the White Light
together, on our own terms.
And now, the entire world
will hear
that this was not a failure.
No. It was a grand success.
Our final message will spread
across the globe
and resonate through
eternity, so everyone,
all people will know that
we have found our true selves.
We have trodden the path
to fulfilment.
And now it's time
for the reckoning.
To embrace White Light.
May everyone say with me...
May our light shine
on the world.
[all]: May our light
shine on the world.
- Trust in me, but more so,
trust in the White Light.
- Hi. My name is Ginny Budd.
I need the police.
[Trask]: ...this special moment.
[breathing heavily]
May your light shine
on the world.
- Don't move.
- May your light shine
on the world.
Kelly. I forgot to mention...
I've given you the privilege
of staying here.
- Of?
- To observe, to make sure
the mission is a success.
- Of course, Pathfinder.
- May your light
shine on the world.
[suspenseful music]
- You know what to do.
- Hmm.
Drink, everybody.
May your light
shine on the world.
Make sure she drinks.
- Oh, you have the plane
tickets?
- Yeah.
- Mexico, here we come.
Ray, what did you do?
These aren't for me and you,
these are for you and Kelly.
- Welcome to the White Light.
[thuds]
[Trask gurgles]
- This is how it feels to be
stabbed in the back.
[blade slices]
[grunts]
- Hey!
[grunts]
[panting]
[grunting]
[shouting]
[screaming]
[soft music]
- This isn't right.
This isn't right.
This isn't right.
The Pathfinder's gone.
He's abandoned us.
Can't you see? He lied to us.
Stop drinking.
Stop drinking.
[Ginny screaming]
Ginny.
Move.
I said move.
[glass shatters]
[screaming]
[grunting]
- Tie her up!
Tie her up!
Are you okay?
I'm gonna go get Victor.
[panting]
[coughing]
Victor.
[coughing]
Stay with me. I need your help
to get you out of here, okay?
[Victor coughing]
[coughing]
Okay, lift.
[grunting]
[indistinct chatter]
[soft music]
[handcuffs clicking]
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
- Why didn't you just
give up on me?
- Because you're my sister.
We're gonna figure this out,
okay?
I love you.
- I'm proud of you.
Let me take you home.
[birds chirping]
If you're looking for closure,
this is one of the steps
in deprogramming.
- Are you sure
you want to do this?
- I'm sure.
[Nina sighs]
It's weird.
I still can't believe I was
really a part of all this.
- You're free now.
That's all that matters.
- And I'm grateful for that,
it's just...
Every day is...
- One foot in front
of the other.
- You're right.
[chuckles]
I'm proud of my progress.
- I'm proud of you too.
- Let's go.
[chuckling]
[tense music]
