The synopsis:
As a new wave of the Affliction presses, Gus ( Christian Convery ) and a group of fellow hybrids are held captive by General Abbot ( Neil Sandilands ) and the Last Men. In an effort to consolidate his power by seeking a cure, Abbot uses the children for the experiments of captive doctor Aditya Singh ( Adeel Akhtar ), who is desperate to save his infected wife Rani ( Aliza Vellani ).
To protect his friends, Gus agrees to help Dr. Singh and begins a harrowing exploration of his origins and mother Birdie’s ( Amy Seimetz ) role in the events leading up to the Great Collapse. Outside the Reservation, Tommy Jepperd ( Nonso Anozie ) and Aimee Eden ( Dania Ramirez ) team up to free the hybrids, but their alliance will be tested as Jepperd’s secrets emerge.
