Marc Headley unveils the grueling daily schedule of Scientology's Sea Organization members, from early morning musters to midnight cleaning sessions, and everything in between.

• Sea Org members work approximately 100-120 hours weekly for about $50 ($45 after taxes)
• Basic schedule runs from 9am to midnight daily, with additional all-nighters expected at least once weekly
• Members perform "Chinese School" at musters, reciting Scientology definitions and policies in unison
• Saturday "renovations" require all members to perform construction, maintenance, or landscaping regardless of their regular position
• Food budget for Sea Org members is approximately $1 per person per day
• Sea Org members receive less compensation and time off than prison inmates or factory workers in developing countries
• Members develop creative strategies to catch sleep, including hiding in auditing rooms where disturbance is prohibited
• David Miscavige's inspections create "chaos machines" resulting in additional work, reassignments, or punishments
