All Call

Previously on Manifest
I'm Aaron Glover. I'm a
journalist. My podcast is 828-Gate.
I don't know what holy grail
the major is closing in on,
but I will not let my family be
collateral damage in her quest.
How about we stay up
here and forget the world?
But I'm assuming you have
something to get back to?
I'm not exactly sure.
I had a Calling. You're not
safe with me. You need to run.
I am sending an angel to
guard you along the way.
I think she may have already been sent.
What are you waiting for? Go to her.
Zeke.
- I'm still alive, right?
- Yeah.
I was just starting to
finally get over you.
Please don't do this.
He was supposed to be gone, Mick.
We should talk.
"To every thing, there is a season."
"And a time to every
purpose under heaven."
"A time to be born,
and a time to die "
"A time to laugh,
a time to mourn,
and a time to dance."
So the Registry just can't
get enough of you, huh?
- Weren't you just there?
- Yeah, last week.
You're only required
to report once a month.
I know. Something, uh
something must be up.
You think this is about Henry Kim?
I hope not. No one's
supposed to know he's alive,
let alone in the city.
Yeah.
Don't wanna go.
If you skip a Registry summons,
you'll be eating tomorrow's
breakfast behind bars.
And they don't serve fresh-squeezed.
Well, I kind of liked it better when
everyone thought we were miracles.
- Well, I think you're a miracle.
- Oh.
Hey.
Tough night?
Look, we're here for you
if you need us. We love you.
Love you too.
- Okay, I gotta go.
- Bye.
It's Saanvi.
- Hey, uh, can I come in?
- Be my guest.
Thanks.
Guess what was on the black box
recording? No, I mean, you can't
You're never gonna be able to
guess, but Okay, just go.
- Uh
- Okay, I'm just gonna tell you.
During the part where turbulence hits,
you can hear Capt. Daly crying for help.
- Just like
- Gupta heard at Eureka two years ago.
- How is that possible?
- That's what we need to find out.
You know who might
be interested in Daly?
I don't think my dad is interested
in hearing about anything.
Especially if I'm the one saying it.
Of course he's interested.
Ben knew Daly better than anyone.
He might remember something.
I don't know. You haven't
seen him in a few months.
He's gotten worse.
When he stopped responding to texts,
I figured he wanted to be alone.
- Maybe that wasn't a good idea.
- I don't think he knows what he wants.
Okay, just be ready.
Aaron Glover. Again.
I'm not giving up, Ben.
Really want you on the show. You
won't even have to leave the house.
I'll come to you. I'm
gonna keep calling.
Ben, hi.
It's really good to see you.
Look, we have some huge news.
Not only do we have in our
possession the black box,
but last night on said black box,
I heard Capt. Daly crying for help.
- You have the black box from 828?
- I do. I can play it for you.
Uh, I believe you.
Hello? Earth to Ben. This is
this is important. Give it a listen.
Eden's important.
Of course, but the black box
came to us because of a Calling.
Who knows what that's
gonna answer for us.
Our Death Date is in 18 months.
We have to follow every lead.
Knock yourselves out. I
don't follow Callings anymore.
All I have to show for it is a
murdered wife and a kidnapped daughter.
The Callings took everything from me.
I don't know what to say.
I'm sorry I bothered you.
Not gonna say I told you so.
Okay. I'm sorry, Cal,
but this is on us now.
After what Angelina did, our
Lifeboat is going to sink.
We need another way, or
we are dead too. All of us.
And while he rocked her, he sang.
I'll love you forever ♪
I'll like you for always ♪
As long as I'm living ♪
My baby you'll be ♪
There you go. No more tangles, right?
Now the bad man won't recognize us.
We'll be okay.
Sorry.
In the past four weeks,
have you had any encounters
with other passengers of Flight 828?
Ben Stone. Saanvi Bahl. Just
like every other check-in.
In the past week, have you
engaged in any illegal activity
such as human trafficking,
money laundering, terrorism?
- No, I haven't.
- In the past week, have you encountered any
Sorry to interrupt. Take five, Morales.
We have questions we
need to ask Ms. Stone
that aren't on your list there.
I'll take it from here if
you don't mind, Lieutenant.
A passenger who entered the country
illegally is wanted for extradition
for a number of crimes
in Singapore and China.
I'm not hearing a question. Sorry.
Were you at the Port of
New York yesterday morning?
No, I wasn't.
Do you have an alibi for where you were?
Someone who matches your height
and hair color was seen at the port.
So, you wanna try again? What
were you up to yesterday morning?
Yesterday?
Yeah, uh, that was the morning
that the death certificate
for my niece was dropped off.
One of your colleagues
closed down the case,
so I actually spent the morning
comforting a widowed, devastated father
while his only remaining child
was upstairs in her room crying.
Uh, what did you guys do?
She was your partner.
You buying this?
I am.
Great. I'd love to assist you further,
but I actually don't
have any information,
nor was I involved, so
if there's nothing else,
then I'd love to get back to my brother.
If you remember anything,
you know where to find us.
Dad, you know Saanvi's
just trying to help.
We've been looking for
the plane for two years,
and now a piece of it's
found its way to us.
And, Dad, it was my Calling
that led us to the black box.
You had a Calling?
I don't know why I'm
being trusted again.
You get one Calling, and
it leads you to exactly
what you've been looking for.
Dad, you've done everything
you possibly could.
Not everything.
I could go on Aaron Glover's show.
Aaron Glover? What, the podcast
guy? Wait. Why would you do that?
He left messages
begging for an interview.
He wants to hear what I have to say.
To help remind the world
that Eden's missing.
This guy does not wanna help you.
He just wants listeners. Period.
Remember what you always told us?
Overexposure could hurt 828ers.
Yeah, we're already hurting.
Go to Grandpa Steve's for a few hours.
You shouldn't be here
when they get here.
- Dad
- I need to do this.
Take a jacket!
Hey, I was telling Henry I'm
securing a safe house for him.
- In the Hamptons.
- Yeah, right.
It'll take another day or two
to work out all the details.
Until then, it is crucial
no one knows his whereabouts.
It's extraordinary what you've done.
Escaping. Finding your way here.
When I was young, I
was struck by lightning.
It gave me this strange-looking scar.
My father told me
the scar's a dragon.
Yeah. Yeah, I can see that.
He said this dragon lives inside me,
making me strong and
capable of doing anything.
Four weeks at sea. It's a miracle.
Not to mention two years as a lab rat.
But I would channel my inner dragon,
breathing through it
until I could lower my heartbeat enough
to feel vibrations from the box.
What do you mean, vibrations?
A humming, as if the box
was meditating along with me.
That is when it happened.
What happened?
I began to hear an ocean of
voices buried beneath the hum.
Like, multiple voices?
What did they say?
I can never make them out.
They're on top of
each other all at once.
I didn't hear anything like that.
Other than Daly calling for help.
That comes right at the end.
I'll show you. Can you play?
Close your eyes.
Breathe.
Are you sure about this?
Maintaining level altitude.
Here we go.
There. The humming. Listen.
Voices on top of voices.
Help me!
Hey. So, I have a few more.
Thank you.
Mick, I'm so sorry.
Do you need me to pick
anything up for the reception?
I don't think you should
come to the reception.
- If this has something to do with what I
- It does.
What you said about Zeke.
My husband.
It's not okay that
you're in my life anymore.
Say something.
You want me to say it's gonna be okay.
Hey, I get it.
I gambled, and I lost.
And I'd do it all over again.
Are you seriously checking
for bugs right now?
With the Registry, I, you know, just
Damn, Stone. You really
think I'd do that to you?
You had to pick this park, huh?
It's out of the way.
I don't need to remind
you how risky it is
for a badge to be seen with a passenger.
That's why I had Drea send you.
- This about me at the docks?
- Sort of.
China knows Henry's on US soil.
NYPD's tasked with bringing him
in. There's a team standing by.
What are they waiting for?
A location. We're
cooperating with the Chinese.
They're getting his coordinates.
I just don't know how.
Either they're tracking
his phone or a watch.
Or they're tracking him.
If you're stashing this guy somewhere,
you need to get him out fast.
You know, your M's held
up better than my J.
Well, you have terrible
handwriting, so
Remember how I used to have to read you
the cards I'd sent you out loud?
You couldn't make out my writing.
I could read it.
All right, you're
running out of time. Go.
Thank you.
I still don't hear anything.
No voices. Not even a hum.
I keep trying to enhance the
frequency. Let me try this.
What's that?
I still don't hear it.
No, I saw something. Over there.
That's one of the machines we
had Dr. Cooper install, right?
Yeah, it's tracking seismic activity.
That's the first time it's gone off
Stop the recording. We
shouldn't be doing this.
We might be causing real-world
damage again with our experimentation.
Okay, let's get Dr. Cooper in.
Hey, guys. I think the NYPD
might be tracking Henry.
- Why do you think that?
- I have a source.
Do you have a phone on you,
Henry? A watch, jewelry, anything?
I was afraid of that.
Is there any chance
they've implanted a
chip under your skin?
There were so many tests,
and sometimes I was sedated.
- It is possible.
- Okay, we've gotta get him out of here.
I know a place.
Take the ghost car and Henry.
I'll quarterback from here. Go.
In the past four weeks,
have you experienced
any unexplained visions
or voices in your head?
This time and every time, no.
In the past four weeks, have you
experienced, heard, heard about,
or otherwise become aware
of any event defying
conventional explanation?
I'll say the same
thing I say every time.
There is an explanation for all this.
You just don't accept my explanation.
Right. The agents of the apocalypse.
Mark it down. Also, mark down that
I refuse to be an agent of anything
except helping my fellow man.
My fingerprints haven't changed
since the last ten times you
Was that Did you just have a vision?
Heard a voice?
I was holding in a sneeze.
I'm fighting off a cold.
You should've mentioned that.
It could affect your vitals.
- Hey.
- Hey. How you doing?
No, no, don't use that on me, Zeke.
It's not a good time. I
gotta get the house ready.
There's never a good time, but I
think it's something you need to hear.
I'm asking for five minutes.
I can feel your anger.
Yeah, well, I'm angry, Zeke.
Toward Cal.
I'm not angry at Cal.
Well, he certainly doesn't know that.
For two years now, this darkness,
it sucks the energy
out of the room, Ben.
And by the way, you
don't have to be an empath
to feel it. Cal can feel it.
There's no blame here. I'm
just trying to find my daughter.
You know what?
Instead of armchair psychoanalyzing
my family, why don't you
How about you stick around
and use that empath thing
to help find my daughter?
What what's going on?
I've got an interview,
live. They take calls.
Maybe you'll pick up something.
A witness, an accessory
- Wait. The interview's happening here?
- Yeah.
Okay.
Can you do that for me?
- I'll try.
- Great, thank you.
I told Cal to stay away from the house,
but we've gotta get rid of
any trace that he lives here.
Divide and conquer?
Excuse me. I think you
left this in the bathroom.
Thank you.
You two in any trouble? I
I found a hotline for a shelter
Oh, no. We're fine. Fine.
Oh, so precious.
Is this for me? Oh.
I should probably get her down
for a nap. Time to go, love.
Come on.
Excuse me. Can I get some help here?
Take your next left. They're honing in.
You sure this is gonna work?
The building I'm leading you
to stores magnets so strong,
your credit cards will stop
working in the parking lot.
Okay. I wish you told me that
before I got in the car
with every credit card.
Point is, Henry's microchip
doesn't stand a chance.
You gotta get out. They're
getting closer. Gonna block you in.
Yeah. On it.
They're on my tail.
- There.
- Hard right at the intersection.
Guys, they've got air support.
Keep going. We can lose 'em
under the overpass up ahead.
Pick up speed. Wheels on
the ground are closing in.
Hang on.
- Why have you stopped?
- There's a garbage truck blocking me.
I'm turning around.
Hey! Henry, stop! What are you doing?
Get back in the car. We gotta go.
- Henry, get back in the car.
- I've done what I needed to.
- I gave Cal the black box, so go.
- No. No!
No! Henry!
You gotta get out of there now.
Nice and easy. Nice and easy.
I shouldn't have let him go.
I should have stayed with him.
- You'd be in jail.
- There's nothing you could've done.
What about you, Vance? Is
there anything you can do?
I wish there was.
Come on. You are the most hooked-up
person I know. Look at all this.
I tapped into a slush fund from
an old op to get us up and running.
And now no government involvement.
And we should keep it that way so
we don't risk exposing all this.
There has got to be someone
that you trust. Powell?
I'll make a call, but it's gonna
be tough keeping Henry on US soil.
He was used as a human lab rat and
nearly died trying to get to us.
The least we can do is try.
- Hey.
- Got an hour to spare?
Ben's going live with Aaron Glover.
Is that a joke?
I wish.
Saanvi, can you find the Glover podcast?
You know Ben.
He thinks maybe the perp will
call in, and I'll pick up on it.
I'm sitting here in the home
of passenger Benjamin Stone
to talk about the 828er who
committed cold-blooded murder
and got away with it.
Ben's timing sucks. Our family
needs to lay low right now.
The Henry Kim thing just blew up.
- They've got him in custody.
- Does the Registry know you were involved?
No, but, uh, only 'cause
someone tipped us off in time.
Thank God.
Yeah.
What aren't you telling me?
You're not using your
I don't have to. What is it?
It was Jared that tipped me off.
Second Jared-save this week.
- Are you okay with that?
- I don't know. Are you?
We should talk about it later.
- All right. I'll see you tonight.
- Yup.
Um
You said we should talk, so, um
I'll start.
Um
I still have feelings for Jared.
And I hate that I do, but I do.
Um
I'm sorry that you have to
feel that because that's not
that's not fair to you.
Frankly, it's not fair to me either
'cause there are things
that are meant to be private,
and that's just not the
case in our relationship.
- It's not like I try to read your mind.
- I know. I know.
Zeke.
The feelings will fade.
It's been a long time.
I don't know, Mick. Maybe you and
Jared were supposed to be together.
- No.
- If I never came out of the cave.
If we never met.
I chose you.
I will continue to choose
you every single day,
no matter if you have
one day left or 10,000.
I love you.
You have to feel that too, no?
I love you so much.
Give us time.
Give us the chance to get back to that.
Just you and me under the stars.
- Hey, where's Henry?
- He's not here. What's going on?
- Well, I need to see him.
- You can't. He's in custody.
What? No. I just had another
Calling. They're actually back.
And Henry was there too.
He was trying to give me
something, but his hands were empty.
He already gave you the black box.
There has to be something
else. I need to talk to him.
God! I finally get the Callings back,
and the one person who can help me
I have to solve this with him.
Okay, I'm gonna get Vance,
see if he's tracked him down.
Just stay put.
to find police surrounding
the house and your wife
- Is that
- brutally murdered.
Her alleged killer, Angelina Meyer,
uses a hide-a-key to gain entry
and kidnaps your daughter
and commits murder-suicide.
Angelina Meyer is not only
a murderer and a kidnapper,
but a continued threat.
She is alive.
No body. No eyewitnesses
from the bridge.
She's out there.
And if your listeners would
just simply look for her,
we can find her.
And if we find her, we find
my daughter, so please
Please help me find Angelina.
She's five-foot-two, dark brown eyes
My brother must have run out for a sec,
but we are so glad that you called.
It's really nice of you to let us stay.
I'll pay you back somehow.
Maybe I could do some cleaning
Don't be silly, Violet.
We are honored to house
an 828er in a time of need.
So make yourselves at home, and
I'll go get the bed made up for you.
All right, we're on with
Steven calling in with a tip.
Hi, Steven.
Um, yeah, so I have
a tip about Angelina.
You know, I know exactly where she is.
Feeding the fish.
Look, no one survives
a jump off a bridge
as high as the one by the Narrows.
- Come on. There's just no way
- Look, this isn't a joke.
No matter what you
think of 828 or of me,
a little girl's life is at stake.
She's three years old. She's all
alone. She's done nothing wrong.
So the next question is from me.
What about your other missing child?
What?
You didn't just lose
your daughter that night.
You lost your son too.
Uh
I'm here to focus on Eden.
There were whispers
that some government officials
would refer to Cal as the Holy Grail.
Do you fear your own son? Is that
why you aren't looking for him?
Cal ran away. He made a choice.
But Eden, she didn't choose any of this.
She's an innocent victim here.
What? Turn it back on. I'm okay.
We've heard enough. Cal, your
dad, he is trying to protect you.
- He doesn't mean any of that.
- Well, it's not like I don't deserve it.
- Cal, no one blames you.
- You sure about that?
My own dad won't even look
me in the eye. And I get it.
Because everybody else knew
Angelina was dangerous. But I
You were listening to a Calling.
We're doing the best we
can with the Callings.
They're the only hope that we have.
You'll get your groove
back. Give it time.
Good news.
I got a 20 on where
they've got Henry locked up.
Bad news, breaking him
out is gonna be impossible.
What if we break Cal in?
Here you go.
I think you two should
be comfortable in here.
Would it be okay if we just
kept it between us that I'm here?
And why is that?
A lot of people hate us passengers.
They don't think we're human.
What would you say you are?
I
I don't know.
Well, between us, it
might be good to find out.
You two stay right here.
I don't get it. You can vibe
what Mick wants for a snack,
but on this, you got nothing.
Why is everyone assuming I
can empath through the phone?
Just like you can't control when you
get a Calling, I'm still learning.
I'm sorry.
I know how much you wanted
this, and I'm not asking you
I'm not in the mood for
another lecture, Zeke.
I'm asking you to make room in your
heart for the rest of your family.
It won't mean you love Eden any less.
You can love more than one
person at the same time.
I would know.
No, no, no.
Don't do that.
I don't need help
bearing the pain, Zeke.
It's mine.
Great show, man. Calls
are still pouring in.
Hey, I'm back at my studio. Started
sifting through the messages.
And some lady said she saw someone
who might match the description.
I figured I'd let you know.
I'm coming with you.
Just remember you were never here.
I know the drill.
Same thing as when I didn't install
that seismology equipment for you.
Here, look at this.
- That's something, right?
- It's definitely something.
Those tremors appear every time
I play the cockpit voice recorder.
But it's odd.
They played it a zillion
times at Eureka and nothing.
Well, the recording's changed.
The black box recording? Changed?
That's not possible.
And yet
Help me!
Fascinating.
- So the reading spikes every 6.2 seconds.
- 6.2 seconds.
So, what? Every time
I play the recording,
I'm triggering a 6.2-second earthquake?
You're not triggering any earthquake.
If you were, all these other
machines would be registering it.
But this one's spiking.
That's because this machine
doesn't detect actual tremors
but emissions called
ultra low frequency. ULF.
Frequency as in sound waves?
Uh, sort of.
Um, electromagnetic waves that
can't be heard by the human ear.
The reason that it's relevant
to me, and therefore you,
is that ULF is emitted by earthquakes.
But earthquakes aren't causing
the frequency spike. So, what is?
- I wish I could go in with you, but
- You can't.
It was my Calling anyway, which sucks
'cause I have no idea what I'm doing.
Yes, you do. You got this, okay?
When you get past that front desk
Right, left, second door on the right.
- On the left.
- Yeah.
Henry will be inside.
Once you are in there,
you have two minutes tops.
- So find out what he knows and get out.
- Okay.
They won't know who you are
unless you leave a fingerprint.
They took them when we got off
the plane in 2018. Remember?
Yeah, so don't touch anything.
God, I feel like I'm
walking into the Death Star.
That's kinda 'cause you are.
It's gonna it's gonna work. Trust me.
This is the address he gave me.
That explains why no
one answered the phone.
- We'll come back.
- I can't let this lead get cold.
If Angelina and Eden passed
passed by here
I was just here.
It's Anna's house.
I'm pretty sure she has a
security camera. Come on.
Thanks, Anna.
It's about my daughter.
Someone at the laundromat down the
block thought they saw Angelina.
Oh my God. Someone saw her?
She was walking with a
little girl Eden's age.
Oh. Wow!
And I remembered your security cameras.
Can we take a look? They
might have walked by.
Oh, well, the camera's not real.
I just put it up to stop the vandalism.
I'm sorry. I I wish I could help.
You're lying.
Anna, what's going on?
Why are you so nervous?
You're covering, but inside, you're
afraid you're gonna get caught.
No.
I was helping you.
We saved someone.
She feels regret.
I'm sorry.
- I don't wanna get in trouble.
- What did you do?
I'm so sorry. I couldn't sleep last
night. I was tossing and turning.
I was wondering whether
I should call you.
I was manipulated by her. I swear it.
Angelina?
You talked to her? She's alive?
Eden?
Angelina told me that
she saved Eden from you!
She just told me awful things
about you and your wife,
and I was thinking about my nephews
and what I would do to protect them.
And it wasn't until I got to know
you yesterday that I realized
Eden's alive.
Where is she?
- Where is she?!
- Ben!
- Please!
- Ben!
Where is she?!
Ben
I just figured I'd report it.
Might be nothing, but it's about
an 828er, so you never know.
Cubicle five. You can file
your incident report there.
Next. Hey, ma'am, how can I
help you? What's your name?
Hi, I'm Jeanine.
My baby, you'll be ♪
Okay.
It's okay. Stay here for Mommy.
Adrian?
- You.
- Help me.
We gotta go. Quick.
Your other left.
I knew that.
Hey, did Intake tell you
about that extra test?
What test?
I'm not sure. You'd better go ask 'em.
I'll keep an eye.
Typical.
Two minutes.
Henry. Thank God.
I hoped I'd get to say goodbye to you.
I'm so sorry we didn't
get you out in time.
But Vance is in touch with his
contact at the UN Human Rights Watch.
- They'll make sure you're okay.
- I am okay. My journey is complete.
How can you say that after we
shared such an awful Calling?
You had your hand out
like you were trying to,
I don't know, give me something?
You have everything you need.
No, I don't. I need help.
For two years, I've had
Callings to find you.
I knew I had to reach you no matter what
to give you what you need.
I have faith in you.
You are strong, capable of anything.
You just need to believe it.
I wear my scar on the outside.
Yours is on the inside.
You're a dragon, Cal.
Just like me.
You need to bolt, now.
I still don't understand.
You will.
After I saw what kind
of person you really are,
I told her I couldn't do this anymore.
Last night, she took
what she could and left.
- Where are they now?
- I don't know. Truly, I'm sorry.
- Why are we stopping?
- We have to talk.
Mommy's gonna talk to her friend, okay?
- Be right back.
- Okay.
How could you do what you did?
