Miguel is determined to rescue his sister from this cult before it's too late, but he quickly realizes that he may be in over his head.
Meanwhile, Jane, a successful businesswoman who has thus far been immune to the effects of the Purge, finds herself facing a personal crisis when she is confronted by a mysterious figure who seems to know more about her than she does herself.
