Follows a range of people who joined NXIVM, the controversial self-improvement group that disintegrated when criminal charges were brought against its highest leaders.
Prosecutor Moira Penza and defense attorney Marc Agnifilo prepare for trial after the arrest of Keith Raniere, Nancy Salzman, Clare Bronfman, Allison Mack and Lauren Salzman.
Nancy Salzman looks back at her professional and personal relationship with Keith Raniere and defends her intentions with the company: to help people achieve lasting, personal growth through Executive Success Programs.
Marc Agnifilo presents his case attesting to the good work of NXIVM; Marc Elliot remains loyal to Keith Raniere after he claims the symptoms of his Tourette’s syndrome were successfully reduced by Nancy Salzman.
Lauren Salzman testifies to decades of manipulation at the hands of Keith Raniere, a man she loved. Her loyalty and devotion eventually turned her into both a victim and victimizer of other women.
A witness for the prosecution gives heart-wrenching testimony about how Keith Raniere groomed her from a very young age and describes the coercive abuse she suffered at his hands, including being isolated in a room for two years.
Keith Raniere is found guilty on all charges, including racketeering, sex trafficking, forced labor conspiracy, identity theft and production and possession of child pornography.
Mark and Sarah, top former NXIVM leaders, describe the dream and mission of the organization. Bonnie, Mark's wife, becomes skeptical, but Mark believes there must be a misunderstanding.
Bonnie leaves NXIVM to make sense of it all and tries to convince Mark that something's amiss.
Sarah confides in Mark about DOS, a secret women's group. They lament their roles as recruiters and question what to do next.
The former members strategize with Catherine Oxenberg about how to get her daughter out of DOS.
The team approaches the New York Times in order to get the attention of the authorities. Mark reflects on his role supporting NXIVM.
When they see no action by the authorities, the team contacts additional media outlets. Barbara, an early defector, shares her insight.
Catherine meets with Frank Parlato to build a dossier of evidence for the New York Attorney General's office.
As the group prepares to testify, they reflect on their beliefs that the SOP and JNESS curriculums reshaped their ideas about gender roles and may have contributed to the foundation of DOS.
Keith leaves the U.S. and is spotted in Mexico. Catherine has a difficult reunion with India. Mark and Bonnie finally return to Clifton Park to confront their past.
