Salvation Plot Summary

What happens in Salvation from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 10 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 1-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

A Staten Island televangelist tale follows Reverend Randall, a public spiritual figure who secretly bilks his flock and secretly watches pornography while rehearsing sermons in his grand, quiet home. The revelation of his double life collides with Rhonda Stample, a devout born-again believer who faithfully tunes into his programs and regularly sends him money, much to the irritation of her non-believer husband, Jerome.

After Jerome loses his factory job, Lenore arrives at Randall’s doorstep during a rainstorm, claiming car trouble. What unfolds is a charged round of seduction and retreat between the two, spiraling into a moment of violent intimacy. That same evening, Jerome shows up with two boorish neighbors and they lash out, believing the encounter with Lenore to be unwanted, leaving Randall to confront a dangerous, escalating confrontation.
