Karlene wants to give Lulu, Katie, and Sadie back their own selves from the time before they met Charlie. Following Charlie's teaching, Tex believes that they can become invisible at will. They are accompanied by Katie and Linda Kasabian.Īfter the Tate murders, Charlie orders Katie, Tex, and Lulu to commit the LaBianca murders. He orders Sadie and "Tex" to go to the Terry Melcher's old house, now occupied by Sharon Tate, to kill the residents. He decides to kick-start the race war by killing some white people and blaming the killings on African Americans.
This makes Charlie angry and, later that evening, he beats Sadie. But, when record producer Terry Melcher sees Charlie and his back-up singers perform Look at Your Game, Girl, he is not impressed. Charlie thinks that he is going to be a rock star. In another flashback, Dennis Wilson tells Charlie that the Beach Boys will record one of Charlie's songs, Cease to Exist. Karlene tries to get them to think rationally instead of believing what Charlie taught them. Lulu, Katie, and Sadie tell Karlene about Charlie's belief that they will wait out the revolution in a bottomless pit and that when it is over, some of them will become winged elves who fly to the surface. Charlie believes that some passages in the Book of Revelation refer to him and that he will lead mankind after a revolution caused by a race war. In one scene, he takes her to a cliff and tells her that if she wants to leave the ranch, then she must jump. In various scenes, Lulu is chastised for questioning the inconsistencies in Charlie's mandates.
Then he has sex with Lulu and tells her to think of it like making love to her daddy and that "it is what all the girls want but can never have." He says that there has to be some death of self. After Lulu sees Charlie callously disregard the pain of a crying Family member, he explains his philosophy that the members of his group are trying to let go of their materialistic culture, to submit, and to get rid of their egos and hang ups. Women aren't allowed to serve themselves food until the men at the table have served themselves. Some days, Charlie sends the women out to panhandle and hunt through dumpsters for food. Incredulous, Karlene thinks that Lulu, Katie, and Sadie have been brainwashed and offers them copies of Our Bodies, Ourselves and Sisterhood is Powerful. Returning from the flashback, Lulu tells Karlene that every girl should have a daddy like Charlie. In front of the group, Charlie tore down Sandy's personality and relationship with her parents, then gave her a new interpretation of herself and sealed the deal with group affirmation. That evening, Lulu witnessed a deeply emotional scene involving another Family member, Sandy. The members of the Family are happy and loving to each other.

Karlene Faith, a University of California, Santa Cruz graduate student, is assigned to teach them college classes.

It shows how Faith, as a graduate student, helped the Manson women come to understand the magnitude of their crimes, and eventually renounce Charles Manson.
