Manifest S&S #2: “It’s All Connected” ~ Cal
 

When Montego Air Flight 828 landed safely after a turbulent but routine flight, the crew and passengers were relieved. But in the span of those few hours, the world had aged five years - and their friends, families and colleagues, after mourning their loss, had given up hope and moved on. Now, faced with the impossible, they're all given a second chance. But as their new realities become clear, a deeper mystery unfolds and some of the returned passengers soon realize they may be meant for something greater than they ever thought possible. From Robert Zemeckis and Jack Rapke comes an emotionally rich, unexpected journey into a world grounded in hope, heart and destiny.

Thanks for the new thread. We are already on a second one!

tftnt :)

I didn't really get a chance to comment on the two clips that were used on Live. I wonder if Ben will keep the job and I am not sure how I feel about the jumping back and forth between the hospital scene and the job interview. It saves time, but I hope they don't use that technique a whole lot in the future.

I will be surprised if he keeps it after the Midseason finale. I could see him working there in 8 while helping Vance. And 9 depending on the timing of the rescue.

ETA

Finally a sneak peek

tyftnt!

Thanks for that :)

Want a theory? Ben is going to end with Saanvi. Jared and Micah again. The flight is a top secret government experiment.

Wish we saw more o the Cal /Olive relationship.

I'm kind of expecting you to be right about the relationships. How would the flight work as a government experiment, though?

We need more of it!

Luna didn't film much for 5 and 6, but we are supposed to see more of the Olive and Danny story tonight. I like Luna a lot and have missed seeing Olive. I think she's extremely talented.

I guess Michaela and Jared are going to end up together, eventually. Now, that he knows the truth, he should be an ally. It appears that Ben and Saanvi are going to be working very closely together over the next couple of episodes. It's not hard to predict that they will develop feelings for each other. Ben's marriage is non existent, as Josh pointed out in the Parade interview. The winter finale is supposed to be when the triangles reach a crossroads. Likely both Jared and even will walk away from their marriages. Both men are keeping secrets from their wives. That is likely to explode in the winter finale. And both marriages will be collateral damage.

The rumored death will probably end up being Lourdes anyway. Another roadblock for Michaela and Jared, because they will no doubt feel guilty. Just we he decides to leave her, she will get killed by the calling gone wrong. :rolleyes: But, I could see it driving Ben and Saanvi together because they will realize that being on the flight together gave them and second chance at happiness. And they won't want to waste another minute.

They are going to need to ramp up the mystery though, because the romantic relationships are not going to keep people that interested. I can see Ben and Saanvi, along with Jared and Michaela getting pulled deeper into the mystery when the show returns in January.

Also Luna filmed a rock climbing scene for tonight. My guess Olive and Danny.

Less Olive can never be a good thing. I hope they see this now. Not interested in the Danny aspect though, he can go.

I kind of don't want Jared to walk away from his marriage this soon, especially as it hasn't been that long since the plane returned. It's inevitable, but I want him to be honest with Lourdes about how conflicted he is feeling and then take time to figure out what he wants instead of jumping at the first hurdle, so to speak.

I don't want Lourdes to be the death, but with the pregnancy she is probably announcing, the most likely options seem to be she dies or she's lying. Unless the announcement she makes is something else, it seems almost inevitable.

I love Ben/Saanvi as friends, and see the potential for a relationship. Wherever they go with it, I'll be happy. It's a nice feeling.

Yeah, the mystery needs to be the primary focus. Cal especially. That's the most interesting part.

The only way that Jared can get out of his marriage without looking like a total creep is if Lourdes dies. That also creates another obstacle for him and Michaela to overcome. I think Jared will become Michaela's main protector going forward. Melissa suggested as much in her interview. I could see him replaces Ben as her confidant.

I think a lot of people realize that Grace really isn't important to the plane mystery. She's outside looking in, which is why Saanvi and Ben make sense as a couple. They are part of the common experience and that makes the two of them, Michaela and Cal are central to the story. Grace and Olive are only really important as part of Cal's story. They don't really fit in with the rest. They will probably continue to be a apart of that. I can see Olive becoming more involved as Cal's twin. Like her grandfather told her, that twin connection will always be important. Grace doesn't have an important connection to the mystery. She will likely show up less and less as we go trough the season. She might not be a part of season 2 at all. I don't see a place for her as the story progresses.

Thanks for that!
