Montego Air Flight 828 from Jamaica to New York City experiences a brief period of severe
turbulence. When they land at Stewart International Airport in Newburgh, New York, the 191
passengers and crew learn from NSA director Robert Vance that over five and a half years have
passed while they were in the air, during which time they were presumed dead. As they
reintegrate themselves into present-day society, the passengers begin to face the fact that their
lives—and loved ones—are not the same as they were before, while they also begin to
experience guiding voices and visions representing events yet to occur, referred to as callings.

On April 7, 2013, Montego Air Flight 828 from Jamaica to New York City experiences a brief
period of severe turbulence. When they land they are diverted to Stewart International Airport in
Newburgh, NY. The passengers and crew learn that the current date is November 4, 2018. Over
five-and-a-half years have passed while they were in the air. Police officer Michaela learns that
her mother has died, and her fiancé, Jared, has married her best friend. Michaela begins
hearing a voice that guides her to save a child from being hit by a bus and to rescue two
abducted young girls. Medical researcher Saanvi learns that her work has helped save
hundreds of pediatric cancer patients while she was gone. Michaela's nephew Cal, who is
suffering from terminal cancer and was also on Flight 828, is a candidate for the treatment. Also
experiencing headaches and hearing voices, Michaela's brother Ben and the rest of the
returned passengers and crew are drawn to the airstrip where the plane is parked. As they look
on, the plane explodes.

T30.10102 8.45[16]
The NSA questions the 20 Flight 828 passengers and crew who were present when the plane
exploded, and they are told not to discuss their experiences with the media. Ben helps fellow
passenger Radd make contact with his son Adio, who is imprisoned at Rikers Island for a
robbery he says he did not commit. Ben's new abilities lead him to discover the real culprit is the
store owner's son, and Adio is freed. Meanwhile, Michaela avoids Jared's wife—her former best
friend Lourdes. Seeing the many posts and birthday messages Lourdes left for her on social
media during the years she was missing, Michaela reaches out to her, and lies that she was
planning to decline Jared's proposal before the plane disappeared. Ben learns from Olive that
there is another man in Grace's life. Kelly, one of the passengers from Flight 828, speaks with
the media, and is murdered.
3 3 "Turbulence" Paul Holahan Gregory Nelson & Bobak Esfarjani October 8,
2018 T30.10103 7.45[17]
Thinking Kelly's murder may be connected to her speaking out, Michaela and Ben visit the
murder scene, and later speak to Kelly's husband Patrick and housekeeper Christine. The NSA
takes control of the investigation, and Vance tries to compel Jared to keep him informed of
Michaela's movements. Cal is upset to discover that his former best friend Kevin is dating Olive.
Michaela is still traumatized by the death of her friend Evie, who was killed in a car wreck while
Michaela was driving, for which Evie's parents Glen and Beverly blame Michaela. She visits
Glen and Beverly and learns that Beverly has dementia while Glen is no longer angry at
Michaela. Michaela later faces her fear of driving to find Beverly, who has wandered off, and
saves her from being hit by a car. The driver is Christine, who is in possession of Kelly's missing
necklace and later admits to killing her. Michaela tells Jared that something has changed in her
that she cannot explain. Saanvi finds something unusual in Cal's blood, and then in her own,
which is usually produced by an ischemic stroke. The NSA takes custody of Kelly's body.

October 15, 2018 T30.10104 7.46[18]
A flashback reveals that flight attendant Bethany smuggled her cousin Leo's boyfriend Thomas
in the cargo hold, and the NSA found his fingerprints. Saanvi compares scans of her brain to
those of an institutionalized patient and seeks him out. He turns out to be Thomas. When
Michaela's partner is unavailable due to a "busted pipe," Jared reluctantly follows Michaela's
instincts and they interrupt the ATF's undercover operation. Jared takes responsibility for his
decision and is suspended. Grace learns the life insurance company intends to recollect the
$500K which they paid her after Ben's disappearance and presumed death. Ben meets Grace's
ex-boyfriend Danny after Olive was detained for attempting to shoplift a lipstick from a cosmetic
store. Thomas escaped from the institution and the NSA is searching for him. With help from
Michaela and Saanvi, Bethany correctly interprets the clues from Michaela's vision and they find
Thomas. Bethany explains that Leo went missing two years after their flight disappeared,
leaving no one to meet Thomas. Michaela and Saanvi help Bethany find a safe place in the
former mall owned by Kelly Taylor. Robert Vance subsequently adds Thomas as "John Doe" to
his Persons of Interest board, replacing Kelly Taylor.

Lester October 22, 2018 T30.10105 7.29[19]
Flashbacks show how Grace, Olive, Jared, Lourdes, and Steve coped during the day when
Flight 828 went missing. Jared's cover-up following the incident causes him to be docked 10
days pay thanks to Robert Vance. Ben and Cal go to Coney Island where Cal suddenly leads
Ben to Thomas while quoting "it's all connected" which Ben has been hearing in his head.
Bethany is picked up by the NSA to talk about the "John Doe" she snuck into the United States
while her wife helps Thomas escape to a cabin in the mountains. After advice from her father,
Michaela goes to speak to Jared at a bar. Ben and Cal learn from Bethany's wife Georgia that
she got picked up by the NSA. Michaela learns from Ben about Cal not hearing voices like they
do but still having abilities that manifest in a different way, causing Ben to dedicate himself to
figuring the mystery out. In the final scene, a flashback shows Cal looking out the window while
the passengers of Flight 828 are asleep as he sees something glowing outside and a voice
stating that "it's all connected," the words that have begun haunting Ben.
6 6 "Off Radar" Félix Enríquez Alcalá Matthew Lau & MW Cartozian Wilson
November 5, 2018 T30.10106 6.28[20]
When Cal develops an unexplained fever and begins speaking Bulgarian, Ben connects his
condition to Marko Valeriev, a Bulgarian passenger on flight 828 who has not been seen since
leaving the hangar. He and Michaela review footage from the night the plane landed and see
passengers loaded onto five buses, but only four arrived at their intended destination. The fifth
bus contained eleven passengers who were foreign nationals, had no next of kin, or were
otherwise individuals no one would report as missing. The buses were contracted by Unified
Dynamic Systems (UDS), a large corporation involved in many industries. After getting some
information from a translator, Michaela locates a farm where UDS is experimenting on the
eleven passengers, but she and Jared are chased away by armed men. Ben confronts Vance
about the missing passengers, believing the NSA is behind their disappearance and threatens
to tell the press. Although Vance has dossiers on the eleven passengers showing they are
accounted for, he leads a team to investigate the farm location. UDS has moved locations, but
Vance finds a bloody bandage that was left behind by accident. When the experiments on
Marko are stopped for the move, Cal recovers.
7 7 "S.N.A.F.U." Michael Schultz Jeff Rake & Bobak Esfarjani November 12,
2018 T30.10107 6.10[21]
Suspicious about Unified Dynamic Systems, Ben takes a low-level job at UDS's accounting firm,
J. P. Williamson. Browsing their records, he finds information about fellow passenger Fiona
Clarke. Michaela and Jared later respond to a crime scene where a young man's uncle was
killed by a robber. The nephew, Carlos, is reluctant to identify the culprit. Ben and Saanvi meet
Fiona, who informs them about the Singularity project and her work with mirror neurons. Ben
downloads information on UDS at J. P. Williamson, but he is caught by Vance and surrenders
the flash drive. Michaela convinces Carlos to cooperate, and they catch the culprit in the act of
another attack. Later, Michaela learns that Carlos received Evie's heart in a transplant. Vance
tells Powell that Ben did not have the downloaded information.

Lester November 19, 2018 T30.10108 5.56[22]
Ben and Grace allow Cal to return to school with Olive assisting Cal. After getting a "don't lose
him" calling, Michaela and Jared respond to a situation. Harvey, a flight 828 passenger, jumps
off a building after claiming he is the "Angel of Death." At school, Cal reconnects with his friends
who are now 5 1/2 years older, and his presence sparks old memories among them. Vance
contacts Ben and they agree to work together. They have Fiona visit her contacts at UDS and
plant a bug in Laurence Belson's office. While grocery shopping, Grace meets Lourdes and
notices a fertility kit in her shopping cart. Grace tells Michaela, who then discovers with Jared
that three people Harvey interacted with are dead from unlikely accidents. Michaela gets the
"don't lose him" calling again. Ben secretly borrows his boss's work ID to get to research where
UDS may have moved the passengers. Meanwhile, Vance uses NSA resources to track phones
that have been in known UDS areas. Together, they narrow the search. The Singularity project
staff prepares to work on Marko again, and Cal senses it.

November 26, 2018 T30.10109 5.97[23]
When Flight 828 landed, Vance discovered a warrant for the arrest of passenger Autumn Cox,
and she was one of the eleven taken by UDS. In the present, Autumn approaches Ben saying
she escaped the Singularity project and knew he would help her. Ben enlists Saanvi and Fiona
to help her at the hideout, where they tell Vance about the Singularity project and Laurence.
Meanwhile, Laurence demonstrates his experiment in a broadcast to his superiors. Marko is
tested with boosted power, causing all passengers to react. At the same time, Grace learns Ben
has been fired from his job. Michaela, Jared, Vance, Ben, and Fiona find nothing at the
warehouse, but Cal arrives and exposes a hidden door. There is a gun fight and the missing
passengers are freed. Vance, Jared, and Laurence are caught in an accidental explosion. Fiona
escorts the missing passengers to a safe location. At a hospital with Jared, Michaela is told
Vance died. Grace and Ben decide their marriage is no longer working and Ben leaves.
Privately, Autumn uses a hidden cell phone to contact Laurence's superiors and ask what they
want her to do next.

January 7, 2019 T30.10110 5.84[24]
As Ben leaves the memorial service for Vance, he is approached by "828Gate" podcaster Aaron
Glover who wants to interview him. Fiona and Saanvi note that all of the rescued passengers
have a simultaneous identical reaction, and arrange for some other passengers to visit them to
see if they experienced a similar phenomenon. Michaela receives a vision of a blizzard and
hears the words "find her". She and Jared find Helen, the wife of one of the passengers who has
awoken with amnesia. She says her husband had been abusive to her. Autumn becomes
frustrated with the pressure Laurence's superiors place on her. Olive invites Danny over for
dinner in order to cheer up Grace. Ben persuades Vance's subordinate Tim Powell to help find
info on "the Major", the shadowy figure in charge of the experiments on the passengers. Jared
confesses to Michaela that he still loves her, and they sleep together. As Powell is picked up by
people working for the Major, Autumn is visited by one of the Major's minions named Director
Jansen who states that the Major wants to speak to her. Cal has a calling where a man in a
blizzard is holding a picture of Michaela as he quotes "find her".
11 11 "Contrails" Marisol Adler Matthew Lau & Bobak Esfarjani January 14,
2019 T30.10111 5.46[25]
In flashbacks, Captain Bill Daly and co-pilot Amuta fly Flight 828 through an unexpected storm.
In 2018, Vance accuses him of questionable decisions. In the present, Bill tells Ben how he has
been blamed for what happened to Flight 828 and the event separated him from his family.
Michaela contacts Amuta, who supports Bill's claim but has returned to Jamaica. Bill and Ben
meet with a meteorologist, Roger Mencin, who suspected dark lightning contributed to Flight
828 vanishing, but he was coerced into silence before he could share his views publicly. Director
Jansen prompts Autumn to visit Michaela, who is watching Cal. Believing he can prove he was
not at fault for Flight 828, Bill abducts Fiona, whom he believes was involved in the conspiracy.
Bill flies a stolen airplane and Fiona into another dark lightning storm. The Air National Guard
claims the airplane was shot down, but the media reports no wreckage was recovered.
Meanwhile, Michaela learns Roger died in a suspicious boating accident and suspects Autumn
overheard a conversation about him. Grace discovers Cal is missing.
12 12 "Vanishing Point" Millicent Shelton Jeff Rake & Gregory Nelson
January 21, 2019 T30.10112 5.37[26]
Ben returns home to find Grace called the police about Cal's disappearance. Michaela
apprehends Autumn and meets Ben. Jared tells the police Cal is at his grandfather's house and
the search is ended. Finding a clue left behind by Cal, Ben and Grace try to find him in
Tannersville, New York. Director Jansen learns Autumn is in police custody and informs the
Major, who cancels the warrants so the police cannot hold her. Michaela learns that Autumn's
daughter was adopted before flight 828 returned and the Major had promised to reunite them.
Michaela locates the daughter and Autumn tells the Major's men, who were also looking for Cal,
to go in the wrong direction. Ben and Grace follow Cal's clues to a remote cabin. They reunite
with Cal, who left home by himself to help a man at the cabin. Shortly after, a hiker named Zeke
collapses at the cabin door. Michaela arrives and recognizes him from her last calling. He tells
them he took shelter in a cave during a blizzard two weeks earlier, in December 2017. Ben
informs him that it is currently December 2018. Meanwhile, the Major moves into a New York
apartment.
13 13 "Cleared for Approach" Constantine Makris Laura Putney & Margaret
Easley January 28, 2019 T30.10113 5.54[27]
Zeke is not ready to return to his life, prompting Michaela to stay with him, while Ben and Grace
take Cal home. As they settle back, a brick is thrown through their front window with Ben
discovering a large red X painted on their front door. While getting supplies for Zeke, Michaela
learns about Chloe, Zeke's younger sister who had died earlier in the same area. Jared
ultimately connects the Stone's broken window to Cody Webber, who runs a conspiracy website
about Flight 828 passengers that he talks bad about. Ben confronts Cody unknowing that his
threats are being live-streamed as the police had arrived during that time. At the police station,
Jared forwards a warning to Ben from his bosses. If he retaliates against Cody again, neither he
or Michaela can help him. Michaela and Zeke follow a calling to Chloe's memorial, where they
build a cairn to pay respect. Meanwhile, Saanvi tells Ben that Zeke has the same blood marker
they do, based on the sample he brought her. As she leaves her research lab, she too finds a
large red X painted on her lab door. Grace and Ben begin to reconcile. Michaela and Zeke find a
painting of two people under three stars, just as dark lightning forms in the sky.

2019 T30.10114 5.26[28]
Michela invites Zeke to stay at her apartment, who then has a calling about a black wolf, which
is also experienced by Cal. Saanvi is asked to treat the cancer-stricken husband of a desperate
woman named Alice Ciccone, a member of the "Church of the Returned", who believe Flight
828 passengers can perform miracles. When Saanvi cannot help the man, Alice forces her to
continue at gunpoint. Ben believes something has happened to Saanvi, locating a church
pamphlet Alice dropped in Saanvi's office. Michaela admits to her affair with Jared to Lourdes.
Ben and Michela head to Alice's house, where they find and rescue Saanvi. Adrian, the leader
of the Church of the Returned and a Flight 828 passenger, admits to Ben that he does not
believe what he is preaching and he scolds him for what Alice did. Director Jansen reports
seeing Ben during a church meeting to the Major. Michela visits Lourdes only to find she has left
Jared. Cal draws Zeke's calling, showing the wolf with Michaela. A getaway van from a robbery
is pulled from the East River three days after it crashed, which Michaela is assigned to
investigate. When she opens the door, the driver James Griffin lunges at her, gasping for air.

In a flashback, James Griffin kills two guards and his two accomplices during a robbery. In the
present, James is taken to the hospital where Saanvi works after he is pulled from his getaway
van. Griffin has a calling about a bomb threat which is overheard by Michaela, Jared, Ben, and
Zeke, but he is sedated before they can learn more. Saanvi finds the blood marker in Griffin,
and they realize he and his van were missing for 82 hours and 8 minutes. This was given a
negative comment by Calvin Webber. Michaela explains the callings to Griffin, who then decides
to offer what he knows to the FBI in exchange for a reduced sentence. Meanwhile, Saanvi
develops PTSD symptoms in response to the incident with Alice. Zeke is arrested while trying to
break into a townhouse, which he tells Michaela belongs to his mom. The FBI grants Griffin
immunity for the murders committed during the robbery and they defuse a bomb in Midtown
Manhattan using information he gives them. Afterwards, Michaela has another vision of the

February 18, 2019 T30.10116 5.36[30]
Griffin is released from police custody. Michaela, Ben, Saanvi, and Zeke all hear a calling to
"Stop him". Suspicious of Zeke, Jared asks fellow officer Tony Diaz to follow him. Diaz sees
Zeke purchase something in an alley. Michaela and Ben confront Griffin moments before he is
about to reveal the callings on a TV talk show. Zeke is planning to shoot and kill Griffin to obey
the calling. Suddenly, Griffin spews a massive amount of water, essentially dry drowning on a
dry sidewalk. Olive and Ben calculate that Griffin died eighty-two hours and eight minutes after
he returned – the same period of time he was gone. Ben calculates the Flight 828 passengers
will all die on June 2, 2024, with Cal confirming he had a vision of their deaths. Grace tells Ben
she is pregnant, but with Danny most likely being the father. Dr. Matthews recommends a
therapist to Saanvi for her PTSD, but the therapist turns out to be the Major. Jared confronts
Zeke in Michaela's apartment, believing Zeke bought drugs in the alley. When Zeke reveals he
actually bought a gun, Jared and Zeke engage in a fight. As Michaela returns to her apartment,
the fight triggers a gunshot fired off camera.

member not having callings and visits the Church of the Returned. Saanvi reveals the news
about the baby to the Major in a therapy session. Ben meets TJ, an 828 passenger and college
student who is called to dig up the body of a female classmate. Jared arrests TJ when his

Michaela and Zeke share a calling that leads them to a bank that is being robbed. Michaela
recognizes the gunman as an 828 passenger named Logan Strickland who has shared the
death date calling. They try to calm him and persuade the ESU to wait while they ensure he
gets into the safety deposit box he is after. At the same time, Ben and TJ work through a
separate calling that leads them to Logan's brother Frank. Frank has the key to the safety
deposit box and Ben takes him to the bank. Inside the box is a compass with a bullet in it that
saved Logan and Frank's grandfather during World War II. Logan believes it will save his life
too, and he gives it to Michaela for safekeeping while he is incarcerated. Having learned about
the death date, TJ is upset and Olive takes him to the Church of the Returned for hope.
Following the incident at the bank, Jared meets Tamara for a date. Meanwhile, the Major
realizes she has been exposed and has Saanvi's research stolen from her lab and home.
Saanvi tells Vance she had isolated the trait and was working on ways to both grant it to others
and remove it from those who have it.

February 3, 2020 T30.10205 3.55[35]
Olive is the only witness when Xers vandalize the Church of the Returned and attack a member,
and Ben receives a calling to "save her". Meanwhile, Grace's car is forced off the road by other
Xers. In both instances, police dismiss the seriousness of the events because the victims are
passengers and the attacks appear random. While being treated at the hospital, Ben and Grace
learn their baby is a girl and assume the calling was about her. Ben and TJ review events and
realize the Xer attacks have been carefully planned to divert police manpower. Olive tells
Michaela what she saw and identifies a suspect, who directs the police to a meeting place for
Xers. Jared knows Tamara's brother Billy was involved, so he leaks news of the coming raid to
them and Michaela's strike team finds nothing. In return, Jared is introduced to Simon White, the
organizer of the Xers. Meanwhile, Zeke tries to make amends with Courtney, a woman he
wronged as an addict. She initially rejects him, but later identifies herself to Michaela as Zeke's
wife. Olive tells her parents about visiting the Church of the Returned, Ben tells Adrian to stay

the club where Isaiah works, with an offer of free champagne. However, the champagne has
been spiked with gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid. Right after Cal gets a repeat calling to "save
them", Isaiah locks the club's doors and starts a fire to prove the 828ers are miracles. While
Ben, Michaela, Zeke and Jared are able to get several people out, numerous unnamed 828
passengers die from either the champagne or the fire as TJ throws himself on top of Isaiah. A
distraught Adrian walks way from the fire.

Jared to keep an eye on Billy as he can be a loose cannon. Michaela and Drea witness Jared
leaving the bar and kissing Tamara. After Drea infiltrates the bar and interacts with Billy,
Michaela finds that Billy has had some arrest records. As the ruined nightclub is used for
memorials, Ben's latest calling takes him to a zen mediation center. When he brings Olive,
another chanting calling leads them underground where they find TJ still alive. With a warrant
from Judge Trilling, Michaela secretly plants a bug in the bar, obtains evidence Jared is working
with the Xers, and gives it to Bowers. Bowers privately shares the information with Jared.

When Zeke goes to see Saanvi about the frostbite he is slowly developing, he finds that Saanvi
has been developing short-term memory loss causing him to call in Alex. Two internal affairs
agents arrive at the 129th Precinct to presumably discuss Jared's involvement with the Xers, but
they instead question Michaela about the cases she solves using mysterious means as well as
her interaction with Isaiah the night of the fire. Michaela states that she will not continue until
she gets a union representative by her side. Jared confronts Simon about the situation. Simon
says Michaela is a threat who must be disposed of. Cal's latest calling is shared with Ben,
Grace, and a recuperating TJ, where they try to build something during what appears to be a
thunderstorm outside. Thanks to some clues, they manage to pull together a makeshift ship's
rigging, which briefly places them on an ancient boat from which they see Flight 828 in the sky;
they also learn that the ancient mariners who tried to get rid of the callings went mad. Alex is
able to get a counter-agent injected into Saanvi as she advises her to be careful. Recognizing
the union rep from a previous Xer meeting, Jared has to arrest Michaela before the relocated
meeting in order to keep her from getting killed by the union rep.

undercover to disrupt the Xers. Grace gets a calling about a bridge over the Harlem River. She
and Ben go there and find Adrian, who had the same calling. Grace's water breaks and Ben
rushes her to the hospital. Shortly after, Adrian rescues a kayaker from the river. At the hospital,
Ben has to make a choice to save Grace or the baby as the specialist surgeon has not arrived
yet, and he chooses Grace (against her wishes). It turns out the specialist surgeon who can
save both Grace and the baby is the man rescued by Adrian. Despite this, Adrian tells Ben he
still does not believe the callings are ultimately good. Jared is called to the bar where Billy and
other Xers are holding Zeke captive. Simon arrives with Erika and orders Zeke to be killed,
which is heard by Michaela and others through the bug. This leads to Simon, Erika, Billy, and
two other Xers being arrested during the police raid. Tamara accuses Jared of only getting close
to her to capture the Xers which Jared denies. Adrian and Cal both have visions of three
mysterious shadows of human forms.

Zeke's estranged father Gordon, and Ben helps a reluctant Zeke make peace with him.
Michaela stops a teenager named Oscar fleeing a store, and he confesses to stealing a candy
bar. Michaela gets a calling to "let him go" and does so while watching Oscar board a bus. She
later learns from the bodega owner that Oscar also stole a large quantity of cold medication
known to be used to cook methamphetamine. Michaela works with Jared to follow Oscar's
steps, resulting in a bust at a meth lab run by ex-con Jace Baylor. Jace and his brother Pete
were in cahoots with the bus driver Kory, who drove the bus that Oscar got on. At the lab,
Michaela gets another calling to "let him go", but has to ignore it when Jace reaches for a
weapon. Jace, Pete and Kory are revealed to be the three shadows in the calling that Adrian

trade for his return, with help from Jared and Drea. A pedestrian notifies a patrol officer of the
bag Michaela left behind, botching the trade as Jace flees with Cal. Zeke has a calling which
helps them locate Cal in the Catskill Mountains. At a remote cabin, Pete frees Cal. Michaela,
Ben and Zeke approach the cabin as Cal leads the three criminals onto a frozen lake. All fall
through the ice, but Zeke jumps in, saves Cal, then dies. Within minutes, Zeke comes back to
life, appearing free from hypothermia and the death date. Ben concludes that the only way to
beat the death date is to follow the callings. Elsewhere, Saanvi ignores Vance's requests and
tracks down The Major, poisoning her in hopes of gathering information. As the two struggle, the
sole vial of antidote breaks and The Major dies. Ben has another calling in which Flight 828
explodes and crashes into the ocean. To Jared's disbelief, divers are unable to locate the bodies
of the three criminals in the frozen lake. A Cuban fishing boat recovers the tail of Flight 828 from

religious parents, who believe their daughter is possessed. She rescues Angelina, and Ben's
plane is diverted to rescue the group. Saanvi runs a private medical clinic, but is shown
following 828 leads in a back room. A woman visits the 129th precinct and talks to Jared, stating

With Olive's help, she digs up a time capsule containing an old photo of herself at a King Kone
stand, reminding her of a time when family life was normal. Pete tells Jace they should flee to
Canada. Jace agrees, but first tries to score money at the place he worked years ago: the King
Kone. While there, Pete retrieves the photo that Angelina dropped. Jace and Kory leave without
him when the cops come. Pete is arrested by Michaela and Drea, and says the photo has both
himself and Jace in the background. Elsewhere, Grace tries to find a safe place for Cal with the

Vance is interrogated by NSA but insists he won't work for the government again, citing Fitz's
attempt to have him killed. A calling leads Ben to 828 passenger Eagan, who helps him locate
and rescue a teenager from a museum that soon explodes. Ben takes the young man home and
it's revealed that the teenager is Kory's brother. Olive follows up on the pieces of Egyptian
artwork that TJ had given her, revealing more clues and a peacock feather at the same time that
Cal has a vision of a peacock; the artwork suggests a connection to the Egyptian goddess
Ma'at. Eagan is later shown discarding a key piece of the artwork after selling artifacts he stole
from the museum. Michaela follows a calling to her late friend Evie's home, only to find Greg
dead on the floor from a massive heart attack. She and Zeke later agree to take care of Beverly.

Two months later, Vance is heading up the 828 task force for NSA. He invites Ben and Saanvi to
view the operation, with the tailfin now added to the plane wreckage. Vance shows Ben and
Saanvi old security video of the tailfin vanishing and Saanvi recognizes the time stamp on the
screen as when she killed Fitz, the same day Zeke rescued Cal and beat the death date. Ben
enters a secure area and sees the body of 828 passenger Kelly Taylor in an experimental
container, remembering she was shot and killed over a year ago. He learns the body no longer
shows a bullet wound, but has injuries consistent with a plane crash. Coupled with the return of
the tailfin to the Caribbean, Ben says science now proves the passengers died on the plane.
Zeke discovers his callings have changed, when he feels exactly what Beverly is feeling during
an episode. He later uses this ability to get Pete to reveal that his high school football coach
named Hannity was forcing Jace, Kory and himself to deal drugs, which resulted in a
teammate's death. Using his pending death date as leverage, Michaela gets Pete to reveal that
Jace is going to Coach Hannity's house right now. Michaela arrives to find Kory has been shot
by Jace for trying to stop him, while Jace fled. At Kory's prodding, Michaela finds drugs in a vent
and arrests Coach Hannity. Meanwhile, Jared and Drea learn more about Fitz's disappearance,
as Emmett informs Vance that Jared is getting too close.

Jared continues getting closer to the truth and is abducted by Emmett under the alias of Special
Agent Fisher while Saanvi starts to understand the consequences of her choices; Jared is fed a
story about Fitz being taken out by an enemy spy which Vance reveals is how he covered up
her murder to everyone, including the government. With only a day left until his death date, Jace
goes on a bloody rampage trying to get revenge on Michaela and Pete is taken to Eureka to
have tests run upon him. In Jace's trailer, Michaela finds a drawing that matches part of the
ancient parchment on Maat. Levi suggests that it is a depiction of an ancient test called The
Last Trial which featured three criminals whose stories match Jace, Kory and Pete. The story
suggests that if Jace forgives Michaela and seeks redemption instead of vengeance, he will be
spared. In exchange for Vance allowing Pete to help Michaela confront Jace at the lake, Ben
agrees to allow Eureka to experiment upon him. After Tarik brags at a bar about the 828-themed
restaurant he wants to open with Grace, the family's location is revealed on the internet by a
reporter who overheard Tarik's pitch. While searching for Jace, Zeke is knocked unconscious,
leaving an oblivious Michaela alone in her search.
35 6 "Graveyard Spiral" Sherwin Shilati Laura Putney & Margaret Easley
April 29, 2021 T30.10306 3.21[48]
Michaela fights Jace who experiences a calling of Cal playing basketball and repeating "last
chance". Convinced that his survival is connected to Cal, Jace kicks Michaela off of a cliff and
goes after Cal. Michaela is later rescued by Zeke and Jared. Due to the family's whereabouts
being revealed, the tires on both of their cars are slashed, stranding Tarik, Grace and Cal and
revealing their location when Jace hears the call about the vandalism on Michaela's police car
radio. At Tarik's house, Jace ambushes the family, Pete, and Angelina when they arrive to help.
Jace tells Pete that he believes the resurrections and death dates are all connected to Cal, so if
Cal dies, they'll continue to live. Jace kills Tarik leading a vengeful Grace to attempt to kill him
while Kory arrives to protect Cal. With time almost out, Ben convinces Grace to not shoot, and
Jace soon spews lake water and dies. Pete and Kory's injuries heal and they remain alive,
seemingly beating the death date. Michaela promises to help Pete get early release in a couple
of years for his good deeds, and Angelina promises to wait for him. After Olive stops the
parchment from being taken away by two men, someone returns Ben's bag containing the final
missing piece that Eagan had stolen. The parchment reveals that as the three men were
resurrected together, they are being judged together. A shadowy figure rises from Jace's body,
grabs Pete and Kory and causes them to die for a second time. Ben and Michaela are stunned
by the realization that they "have it all wrong", while Angelina is devastated to lose Pete.

Furious that Pete is now dead alongside the fact that they now have the bodies of him, Jace,
and Kory in their custody, Dr. Gupta says Ben and Saanvi have to leave the Eureka project after
their current tasks are finished. Michaela, Eagan, and several other 828 passengers get a
calling of a dark cloud over the east wing of the building that houses the Eureka team, then they
see Ben leaving the building. Eagan and two others kidnap Ben with Eagan pressing him on
what is going on in the building. Ben admits he's allowed himself to be a research subject. He
says the east wing is a loading dock and agrees to investigate while also telling Eagan about
the three meth heads and how everyone from 828 is "in the same lifeboat". Michaela and Drea
locate Ben when it turns out that the house they were in doesn't belong to Eagan. By then, he
has already agreed to work with Eagan; Ben later bails him out and informs him not to do
anything he'll regret. Cal deals with guilt over Tarik's death knowing why Jace was there, while
Angelina has similar feelings about Pete's death. Jared gets closer with Sarah Fitz. Saanvi
makes a discovery about different metallic compounds found in people that have returned and
died recognizing them as materials in sapphire. Gupta later decides to retain Saanvi following
her breakthrough, then has something to show her in a sealed container.
37 8 "Destination Unknown" Claudia YarmyEric Haywood & Marta Gené Camps
May 6, 2021 T30.10308 2.85[49]
The object in the container is petrified wood, thought to be several thousand years old, that is
coated with the same minerals as 828 passengers. Ben and Michaela follow similar callings
which lead them to 828 passenger Rachel Hall. Rachel's ex-husband Jonah married her sister
Hannah during Rachel's 5+ years absence, but things are not what they seem. Rachel's anger
is not with her sister, but with her abusive ex-husband whom she's learned is also abusing
Hannah. Ben intervenes to stop Rachel from murdering Jonah. Due to Ben setting off the silent
alarm, all three of them are arrested by the police. Michaela is angry with Ben for putting himself
in danger, but he says it was necessary to preserve the 828 "lifeboat". As Jonah is being
booked, Hannah has agreed to testify on Rachel's behalf. Saanvi determines the petrified wood
is about 6,000 years old and contains some animal DNA, later learned to be from a peacock.
When Gupta says the wood was expelled from a long-dormant volcano that is revealed to be on
Mount Ararat, she and Saanvi discuss the possibility that it could be from Noah's Ark.
Elsewhere, Angelina seems to be able to calm Eden whenever she's crying, and Cal tries to use
Zeke's empathy power to determine if a girl at school likes him. Also, Michaela and Drea notice
that Jared is becoming romantic with Sarah Fitz.

Michaela, Ben and Eagan get similar dark cloud callings, except Ben's also has water and
Eagan's has a lion with blood emerging from its eyes. Eagan works with Ben, who picks up a
glowing copy of the Al-Zuras booklet, while they see that Saanvi's photo on Ben's wall is wet.
Saanvi has been running experiments bombarding the petrified wood with a dark lightning
simulator, when her eyes start to bleed. Ben hears of it and asks Olive, who is working with Levi,
if she can research anything about lions with bleeding eyes. She and Levi uncover a legend that
suggests the eyes are a symbol of deception. Michaela visits Saanvi, whose condition has
medical experts stumped, and gets her to admit to killing The Major with Vance and Emmett
covering it up. Saanvi's eyes immediately clear up. Gupta then shows Saanvi slo-mo footage of
her latest experiment, which shows the petrified wood disappeared for some milliseconds before
reappearing. Elsewhere, Zeke's empathy powers lead him to believe that Jared and Sarah
make a good couple with Sarah helping out Beverly. Angelina irritates Olive by trying to look and
act like her. Ben tells Grace the latest callings likely mean the 828 lifeboat is already taking on
water. He looks at the ancient mariners drowning in one of the Al-Zuras drawings, and ponders
if the victims sacrificed themselves for the greater good or were thrown overboard.

Easley May 20, 2021 T30.10310 TBD
Saanvi's latest experiment on the petrified wood causes a rare earthquake to hit New York.
When Saanvi sees TV news coverage of a fissure in a road with lava underneath, right at the
epicenter of the quake, she's convinced that Mount Ararat has come to New York to reclaim the
piece of Noah's Ark. She and Troy engineer a ruse in the next experiment to cause an explosion
that leaves only a pile of dust, when in reality they have removed the wood from the building.
Ben goes to see 828 passenger Astrid, whose photo was in flames during his and Cal's calling.
Astrid has received a calling of a boy in danger, who turns out to be the son of known anti-828er
Cody Webber whom Ben encountered before and has since received a restraining order not to
go within a certain feet of him. Ben assaults Webber again when he won't reveal where he's
hidden his son. Michaela and Jared break up the conflict as Michaela and Astrid are able to
rescue the child from earthquake debris. Jared says he has to arrest Ben for the assault, and
Michaela reluctantly agrees. At the Stone home, an incident during the earthquake has Angelina
believing that Eden is her guardian angel. Cal agrees that he, Angelina and Eden all have a
connection. However, when Angelina puts her theory to the test, she starts a fire that forces
Grace to evict her much to Cal's objection. At the site of the road fissure, Troy and Cooper
cause a distraction, allowing Saanvi to toss the petrified wood into the lava. The lava disappears

Production
Development
On August 23, 2017, NBC gave the production a put pilot commitment. The pilot was written by
Jeff Rake, who was also set to serve as executive producer alongside Robert Zemeckis and
Jack Rapke. Jackie Levine was expected to serve as a co-executive producer. Production
companies involved with the pilot were slated to consist of Compari Entertainment and Warner
Bros. Television.[51] In January 2018, NBC gave the production a pilot order[52] and that David
Frankel would direct and executive produce the pilot.[53] In May 2018, NBC gave the production
a series order of thirteen episodes[54] with a premiere in third quarter of 2018 and a Monday
timeslot at 10 p.m.[55] On June 19, 2018, the series premiere was set for September 24,
2018.[56] On October 18, 2018, NBC ordered an additional three episodes of the series,
bringing the total up to sixteen episodes.[57][58]

On April 15, 2019, NBC renewed the series for a second season, which premiered on January
6, 2020.[59][60] On June 15, 2020, NBC renewed the series for a third season which premiered
on April 1, 2021.[1][2]

Casting

Josh Dallas, Melissa Roxburgh and Jeff Rake at the San Diego Comic Con in 2018
In February 2018, Josh Dallas, Melissa Roxburgh, and J. R. Ramirez joined the pilot's main
cast.[61][62] Athena Karkanis, Parveen Kaur, and Luna Blaise were cast in main roles the
following month.[63][64] In August 2019, Yasha Jackson, Garrett Wareing, Andrene
Ward-Hammond, and Ellen Tamaki were cast in recurring role for the second season.[8][6] In
October 2019, Leah Gibson and Carl Lundstedt had been cast in recurring capacities.[9] On
September 22, 2020, Holly Taylor was cast a new series regular for the third season.[3] On
October 22, 2020, Will Peltz was cast in a recurring role for the third season.[10]

Release
Marketing
On May 13, 2018, NBC released the first official trailer for the series.[65] On July 21, 2018, the
series held a panel at San Diego Comic-Con in San Diego, California. Those in attendance
included executive producer Jeff Rake and actors Melissa Roxburgh and Josh Dallas.[66] On
August 28, 2018, the first nine minutes of the first episode were released among various digital
outlets.[67]

Premiere
The series took part in the 12th Annual PaleyFest Fall Television Previews on September 10,
2018, which featured a preview screening of the series.[68]

Reception
Critical response
The series was met with a mixed response from critics upon its premiere. On the review
aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds an approval rating of 57% with an
average rating of 6.24/10, based on 37 reviews. The website's critical consensus reads,
"Manifest's attempts to balance supernatural mystery and melodrama largely work thanks to its
well-chosen cast — though it could use a few more distinguishing characteristics."[69]
Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the series a score of 55 out of 100 based
on 15 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews."[70]

In a more positive assessment, USA Today's Kelly Lawler explained how she felt that the series'
simplicity and variety of drama subgenres might help it outlast similarly themed but ultimately
unsuccessful past shows. She further praised the series for maintaining the standard of quality it
set with its premiere episode saying, "Heavily serialized shows, such as Lost, Breaking Bad, or
Game of Thrones often start with a great concept and first episode. But many lesser shows
collapse when the story expands. Manifest navigated through its first major roadblock by easily
moving from the setup to meatier stories."[71] In another favorable evaluation, Variety's Daniel
D'Addario commented that the pilot didn't "pretend to have answers; it only poses questions. But
its inquisitiveness and willingness to be bold and fairly uncynical given all the things it's trying to
be is more than welcome."[72] In a mixed critique, Los Angeles Times's Lorraine Ali remarked
that the series had a compelling premise and that the many mysteries it introduced "point
toward a potentially addictive series if Manifest allows its gripping supernatural narrative to rise
above its characters' less interesting personal dramas."[73] In a negative review, The
Washington Post's Hank Stuever compared the series negatively to other network science
fiction series saying, "Manifest, alas, beelines thoughtlessly toward its hokiest idea, when some
of the returning passengers discover they've acquired psychic powers. Just like that, a viewer
who might have been interested in the human element is instead served a cold plate of mystery
meat — not the new Lost, but a feeble throwback to forgettable failures such as The Event."[74]
In a similarly dismissive appraisal, The New York Times' Margaret Lyons commented that
"Manifest has a frustrating lack of propulsion, a central dullness whose force field is so strong it
bends all the interesting parts toward itself."[75]
