Who is Meg Abbott in The Leftovers?
The convert who outruns the doctrine · Guilty Remnant
Meg Abbott (The convert who outruns the doctrine) is a character in The Leftovers, part of Guilty Remnant. Meg Abbott is the Remnant's newest recruit when the series opens: furious, unfinished, chopping a tree to splinters as Laurie's silent novitiate. Her mother died the day before the Departure — grief pre-empted, mourning stolen by the world's bigger wound — and the Remnant gives her rage a uniform. Meg's trajectory through the cult goes one direction: past its vows of passivity toward something with explosives in it, until she is the franchise the founders are afraid of.
