The Purge: Lovely Dark and Deep (2018)
Season 1, Episode 7
7/10
Penny is Boring but Going Dark
28 October 2018
I agree the you, Sonajam, Penny's storyline is the worst. I can see why the EPs & writers wanted to have a character that would choose to be purged, simply to give the show another facet. However, her scenes are maddeningly boring & I'd almost want her to die if Miguel wasn't risking his life all the time to save her.

Unfortunately, I think she's going to purge him. She wants to see her parents again & the has a lot of latent anger against him (she could see his death as freedom for both of them & a new beginning for herself. She feels like he abandoned her, so I could totally see her killing him, possibly Pete (if he got in the way or was just an innocent bystander & got taken out by someone else). Then possibly letting someone purge her or choose to live. Either way, I think she's going to kill her brother; I can see the writers thinking this is a plot twist.

Her back story isn't that compelling compared to Jane's. She comes across as a petulant teenager instead of an intelligent young woman and it's boring.
