Sandeman left the cult when he discovered J.C. would fail initiation. He says he will take Max to Sandeman, but delivers her to White, his brother, instead.

White's men track one of the captured transgenics back to Jam Pony, but Cindy lifts Max's and Alec's files before they are discovered.

Then a bunch of transgenics, including Joshua, Alec, and a preganant X5, are cornered in Jam Pony, holding the couriers hostage, and surrounded by police, with White and his team of well-bred super soldiers moving in to take out Max. But Max takes control, and, despite White's best efforts, manages to stop it turning into a blood bath. The transgenics escape to the toxic waste area, and start getting good publicity from the way they handled the hostages.
