Manifest (2018) s04e07 Episode Script
Romeo
1
Previously on Manifest
Major says proceed.
They're using
massive electrical currents to
do experiments on their brains.
My son is channeling the pain
from one of the missing passengers.
It's all about the work for you.
I loved you. Vi, I'll always love you.
- Mommy!
- Give me back my daughter!
I just wanted to thank
you for saving us.
Anyone would've done the same.
I don't know if the people
I hurt will forgive me.
It's not about them.
It's about you.
And seeing yourself as
someone worthy of being loved.
We might just be on
the brink of changing
the very definition of science
as we know it.
It might very well
be the signature of
The divine?
Did I pass out?
After you insisted you
weren't gonna go back inside.
- But, Cal, we
- Don't.
We need to get you to a
doctor. You look like hell.
You're one to talk.
I can smell the alcohol
on your breath from here.
You collapsed. This is serious.
- It could be
- Anything.
It could be the flu, for all
we know. Don't worry about it.
I can sense you're worried about it.
Why don't we get your dad and
have Saanvi run some tests?
I am not telling my family.
And Saanvi's practically family.
Besides, she has enough
on her plate already.
- She'd make room.
- I said no!
They are just starting to
pull themselves together again
with Eden home.
Last thing they need is for me
to stress them out all over again,
especially over something
that could be nothing.
Fine. What If I can get you
to somebody who isn't family?
I need that address.
Let's pick up the pace.
Yeah, I got this right here.
Homicide on line 2. Where's the captain?
Just grab Thompson. We
need to get a team together.
Okay. Okay.
What the hell is going on?
Another passenger was
murdered. Anna Ross.
That's another 828er in 24 hours.
They don't think that Colvin
No, he's cleared for
everything but extortion.
Okay, so what's the plan?
Registry is all over this. Already
combing Anna's house for clues.
No, I mean, what is the
plan with the passengers?
Why is there not a cop
at every 828er's door?
That's the first thing I
suggested to the new boss.
I'm not the enemy here.
I know. I'm sorry. Just
Look. I had another Calling. There
was blood pouring down a red X.
I don't think this killer
is close to being done.
All right. I'll talk to the
captain and see what I can do. Okay?
- But in the meantime
- Steer clear of Anna's. Got it.
Saanvi, the sun is barely
up. What time did you get in?
I never left. I was going
over Cal's scar sample results.
And it turns out it's regular
tissue. Then Olive ca
Saanvi, you are gonna burn out
if you don't take
some time for yourself.
Get this. Sapphire may be the antenna
that tunes us in to
divine consciousness.
Sapphire, like on the tail fin
and the driftwood from Noah's Ark.
All I need is to get my
hands on some sapphire.
Hold on a second. What you need
is to take care of yourself.
Vance, I am.
Don't you see? There may be a
way for passengers after all.
A way for us to make it past 2024.
Of course you'll make it.
It's your father's 60th.
Oh my God! You're not listening to me!
There is no point in
buying me a plane ticket
or talking about anything
past June 2nd, 2024
because I will be dead.
We already lost you once.
I will not hear this again!
She just doesn't understand.
Of course she does. She
just doesn't want to.
Neither of us do.
Well, neither do I.
I would do anything for more time.
So why don't you? Surely there
must be somebody at the lab.
What lab, Dad?
After the plane disappeared,
the government shut it all down.
Then what about that nice man I met?
Vance? I haven't heard from him.
And your friend, the doctor? Alex?
There's no way to right the Lifeboat.
Passengers keep doing awful things.
Keep killing innocent people.
Maybe it's not about
righting the Lifeboat.
Maybe it's about
finding another way.
Okay.
Everything's been processed
under your pseudonym.
Even put "Gabriel"
down on your lab work.
Thank you for that.
And for seeing us on no notice.
Anything for friends of Dr. Bahl.
So, Gabriel
the CBC test results will
take a few more hours.
From there, you may need to come in
for a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy
to get the most accurate diagnosis.
Okay, but
But your condition
appears to be consistent
with falling out of remission.
Meaning my cancer's back.
Until the results come in,
I can't say for certain.
I know it's hard.
Try and focus on something else today.
Find a way to take
your mind off all this.
And do what?
Live your life.
Hey, sweetie.
- You wanna draw on this?
- No!
Chin up, kiddo.
You didn't like me hovering when
you were building Lincoln Logs.
Not at first, but I came around.
Hey, you still stuck in there?
Ben, Anna Ross was murdered.
- What? She was just at the house.
- I know. That's why I'm calling you.
Jared's gonna meet me at Sam's
to see if there's
something we've missed,
but two 828 murders, that's not random,
unless there's some connection
between Sam and Anna.
I hope so, for all our sakes.
Okay, uh, I will be in touch. But
until then, hunker down. Cal too.
Yeah.
Cal?
Hey, Cal?
Hi, it's Gabriel.
Please leave a message.
Oh, there you are. Thank God.
Thank God you're all right.
Why wouldn't I be?
Look, I'm sorry I
yelled at you last night.
Did something happen?
Anna Ross was murdered.
Oh my God.
Someone's killing 828ers.
Can't have anything happen,
which is why you gotta lay low.
- No leaving the house.
- Wait. What?
No one even knows who I am.
Angelina does.
Who's she gonna tell? The
police? They'll arrest her.
Cal, It's nonnegotiable.
Your life could be in danger.
Yeah, some life.
Cal.
He's got a lot on his mind.
Are those letters?
Huh.
A little young to be spelling.
I don't think she's spelling, Dad.
I think she's having a Calling.
Well, don't look at
me. Go figure it out.
- What? Now? I just told Cal to lay low.
- Eden needs your help.
She can't follow a Calling,
but you can follow it for her.
Maybe it could be something that
could help us catch this killer.
All right, you sure you don't mind?
And spend time with my granddaughter
I haven't seen in two years?
I'm positive.
All right. Don't worry, peanut.
Gonna figure this out
for the both of us.
Dad,
lock the door behind me.
Hey, I got your message.
Hey, um, thanks for
coming on your day off.
Of course. Two passenger
killings in the last 24 hours?
It's not a coincidence,
agreed. But why these two?
I don't know. I doubt we're
gonna find any answers here.
Between us and the Registry, this
place has been combed through.
Okay, we gotta comb again. There's
gotta be something in there.
Um, hello?
Oh, it's okay. It's
all right. We're police.
Did you know Sam?
We weren't besties, but he was nice.
Certainly didn't deserve all the hate.
For being a passenger, or
Those anti-828 people are no joke.
Stalking? Vandalism?
Like a Kim K robbery-level stalking.
Even cost me a babysitting gig.
Sam didn't have kids though.
Some lady and her daughter
were staying with him last year.
I offered to sit, but they took off.
I think the fear got to them.
Is this the kid?
Hey, yeah, I found the connection.
Anna and Sam both took
in Angelina at some point.
- So much for steering clear.
- Did you just hear me?
Angelina could be out
there on some revenge spree
against anyone who helped her, or,
I don't know, didn't help her enough.
Well, I could tell you where she's not.
Her psycho mom's place in Westchester.
Noelle's in New York?
Yeah, Registry got a tip.
Tossed the place. No sign of Angelina.
Well, maybe we poke the
hornet's nest a little more,
- see what we can stir up.
- Mick.
Look. I might find something
that your guys missed.
If Noelle can help me
get closer to Angelina,
to just ending this, then
Okay. Yeah, I'll send you the address.
Just, please, with everything going on,
be careful.
Yes. Thanks.
Explain to me again why
you think it's a good idea
to tear apart a $10,000 laser.
Because lasers use high-grade
sapphire in their lenses.
And right now, this lens
is all that we've got.
This is a loaner. Last thing
I need is for you to break
that.
For you to break that.
- Tell me this wasn't worth it.
- It wasn't worth it.
You just spent $10,000 on an antenna.
It's not any antenna.
Instead of waiting for the
Callings to come to us
You tune into them?
Yes. We'd have an all-access
pass to unlimited Callings.
All right. Maybe this was worth it.
Now all I need is an instruction manual.
Where you going? Why
is your shirt ironed?
Well, 'cause I'm
following doctor's orders.
I was told to do anything
other than wait for bad news,
so I'm going out.
Look, I feel for you,
sometimes literally,
but your dad was pretty explicit.
Zeke,
for once in my extremely
shortened life, I'm gonna live.
Can you please hold? Okay, thanks.
May I help you?
I hope so. I'm looking
for a place for my father.
He's He needs help.
One minute, he's with us.
The next, he's dragging me off to
the 500 Club to see Frank Sinatra.
I mean, we're pretty short-staffed.
I don't know if there's
anyone around that can
Please. I'll show myself around. I
can't manage him by myself anymore.
Yeah.
I don't know what I'm gonna do.
Okay, just a quick look around.
All right.
And don't disturb any of our clients.
Sure.
Hello, ALNI.
Yes.
Okay.
Who do you think you are?
You have some nerve thinking you
can flash your badge and barge in.
The police were already
here, demolishing my home.
Do you know what your partner
did to me? She abducted my child.
Actually, it sounds like she
saved your child from you.
How dare you! The only person Angelina
needed saving from was herself.
I bet she did kill those people.
And if that is anyone's
fault, that's yours.
I tried to protect the
world from my fallen angel,
and I was doing a fine job
of it until you took her away.
So you're telling me the last time
you saw your daughter was in Costa Rica?
The only person I would want
in my home less than you is her.
Wow! You believe all that?
Not a word.
- She certainly doesn't like you.
- I don't need her to.
If she's not gonna give us
proof that Angelina's involved,
maybe the bodies will.
Reynaldo.
Stone.
I haven't seen you
since you left the force,
which begs the question,
why are you in my morgue?
Two 828ers are dead, and I think
they were killed by the same person.
I also have a feeling
that person's not done.
We have a theory.
But to get this new boss to
believe it, we need proof.
Well,
both victims have identical markings
made in blood on the
palms of their left hand.
So you are correct in thinking
it could be the same killer.
Someone 130-135 pounds minimum.
How do you know that?
The knife was driven so
deeply into each body,
the hilt left bruising,
and that takes real weight.
There goes our proof.
Angelina's 110, tops.
What are you thinking?
I used to think someone was
trying to pin it on an Xer,
but maybe our killer just simply is one.
They were harassing Sam.
Hmm, they clearly know where to find
us, so let's go find one of them.
- Excuse me!
- Oh, I'm sorry. I apologize.
This is, uh this is my wife.
- Sorry I'm late. Traffic was crazy.
- Don't worry, babe.
Dad's gonna love this place. Do
you mind if we take one more lap?
Go ahead.
Hello, ALNI.
Okay, what was so important
that I needed to rush over?
Not what.
Who.
The detained passengers.
How?
Eden's Calling led me to them.
Someone must have dumped them here.
Well, we still don't know what
the major did to them or why.
I think Eden sent us here
to find out. The question
Who the heck are you?
You cannot be in here.
You can't disturb my patients.
Disturb them? Um, they don't
have any brain function.
Wow, cold much? They're still people.
- Let's go.
- You don't understand.
Buddy, don't make me call security.
Okay. Our apologies. We're leaving.
- What? We gotta get back in there.
- Like there's any chance I'd leave now.
Look. I made a promise
to myself a long time ago
that I would never give up on anyone.
Not ever again.
Maybe this is it ♪
This is all we get ♪
Excuse me. Give me another.
Maybe we can pick just a little bit ♪
It's all I get ♪
Before your exit, pull over ♪
Big night? What you celebrating?
Jumping ship.
I think it's about time I
realized I am getting ghosted.
But I don't need a girl tonight ♪
Just came up and feel all right ♪
Um
Do you mind if I get the
check, like, right now?
You know what? It's on me tonight.
Looks like you could use the win.
You know what I could use?
A big, dark cave I can just crawl into.
Well, I'm fresh out of those, but
I do have a bed you could crawl into.
What time do you get off?
Uh, Violet?
- Hi.
- Hey, thanks for meeting me.
I would've come to you,
but with my new job
Oh, don't sweat it. Seriously.
I'm the one that texted you.
Glad you did.
Uh, I've been meaning
to return your coat,
but I wasn't sure how to
reach the hero that saved me.
Oh, please. You're the hero.
This is my favorite jacket.
Uh
So, um
So
what did you have in mind to
to do?
Unless you just wanted your jacket.
Oh, no. Uh, um
I'm easy. Whatever you want.
Well, how about I buy you a drink?
The least I could do after everything.
I mean, only if you want to.
Yeah, a drink.
Uh-huh.
Lead the way. Okay, all right.
For sure.
- Take a look at this.
- Wait.
- You're gonna see what I found.
- I've read enough.
"Enough soft-pedaling
with the 828 passengers."
"Time to treat them like
the vermin they are."
How do you put up with this
shit? All the hate 24/7?
I don't. Just gotta tune out the crazies
and learn to find out
which ones are harmless
and which ones mean business.
- XOUT828?
- Look at his most recent posts.
He has a whole game plan
for wiping out 828ers,
starting with passengers
being marked with blood.
Wait. He said blood specifically,
like how the killer uses blood
to mark an X on the victim's palm?
It's not public information.
I think we're gonna need a name
and address for this XOUT828.
It sounds like you're
gonna need to call Drea.
I thought this was a
normal bar. I can't do this.
Of course you can.
- Well, I'm not good at singing.
- That's what makes it fun.
No one's good. Haven't
you done this before?
You're a karaoke virgin?
Is that what they're calling it now?
Don't worry. I'll make sure your
first time's one to remember.
Are you kidding me?
Please. I'm a doctor.
One look at their charts.
- That's all we ask. Then we'll go.
- Out of the effing question.
These people were in my care.
Oh yeah? Then what are they doing here?
I don't know,
but there could be something buried
in those charts that could help me
help you take care of them.
If you wanna help, leave.
If I violate HIPAA, I get fired,
and then my patients
are really out of luck.
I am the only one who cares for them.
The facility doesn't even care that
no one knows who these people are.
We know who they are.
They're Flight 828 passengers.
Okay. I see.
You're some of the folks that
are fascinated by the plane.
Okay.
You're wrong. We're some of those
folks that were on the plane.
Hey!
She's not lying. That's Marlon.
His wife, Joelle. And that's Lena.
And that's
Marko.
Oh my God.
Marko.
I'll never forget what the major did.
Those horrible experiments. The
connection you had with my son.
Eden led me here for a reason.
To remember.
It's not good enough to
help myself. I have to help.
All of us.
Forgive me, Marko.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
That can't be.
What did you do?
I asked for his forgiveness.
Well, I think he gave it to you.
He's conscious.
I think these passengers do
have function. They're awake.
Five minutes with their records.
If I can get inside their minds,
imagine the type of care
you could provide for them.
Five minutes, but that is all.
- Anyone catches wind of what we're doing
- They won't. We'll be in and out.
Just one of you.
Go. I'll stay here. I wanna
spend some time with these guys.
All right, so apparently our
guy XOUT828, AKA Greg Turner,
isn't allowed within 50
feet of any passenger.
You really think an Xer is gonna
behave based on a piece of paper?
There's only one way to find out.
We wait.
Figured it was gonna be a long
day. And, yes, before you ask,
there is extra avocado.
Yeah, I'm not making that mistake twice.
Yeah, there it is. Good job.
There's our guy.
Thanks for coming.
I've written all this down for
Cal, but it bears repeating.
This is a powerful opioid for the pain.
No more than two of
these every 12 hours.
Now, we aren't there yet, but
if Cal does end up needing chemo,
he has to stop taking those.
They can mask high temperatures.
His doctor will need to
know if he has a fever.
I can't hold on to these.
I'm all of 18 hours sober.
I've been so focused on
making others' pain go away,
I forgot about me.
My pain.
And now I have no room
left to process it.
I haven't even told
my wife I relapsed yet.
Sorry. It's the first time
I'm saying this out loud.
I don't know what to do.
I know the truth will hurt her.
- But if she finds I kept this secret
- It'll hurt her even more.
It's the nature of secrets.
You've been there.
I have so been there.
I can't believe this is the first
time I'm saying this out loud.
But on the day 828
was supposed to land,
I was at JFK
waiting for Saanvi.
Secrecy breeds pain, Zeke.
Promise me you'll love yourself
enough to make room for it.
Whoa! Talk about a deep cut.
Is this from when we were gone?
Try 20 years before we
existed. It's my mom's favorite.

What? What?
Nothing. I just
This is nice, is all.
It's been a while since
I felt like the real me.
Mm.
- Mysterious.
- Hmm.
Okay. Go on, then. Who are you really?
Uh, that's just it.
I'm actually Cal.
Cal Stone.
Cal Stone, the runaway?
But I thought he was
Younger?
Yeah.
Hard to explain, but it's me.
So that little girl
from the compound is
My sister Eden.
Oh my God.
I'm sorry. I should
have told you sooner.
I totally get if you hate me right now.
Hate you? You're gonna hate me.
That lady, Angelina.
I helped her, like, a year ago
with books and diapers and stuff.
I worked at a day care.
So I hooked her up.
I even let her crash there after hours.
I had no idea who she
was or what she had done,
but after seeing that little
girl reunite with her dad, with
with your dad
If only I had told someone sooner.
No. Angelina had us all fooled.
You are a good person.
And after everything you've been
through, you can't. You just

I'll stop the world ♪

Should be somewhere against
the back wall. I'll keep watch.
I don't understand. I saw
you crying. You're conscious.
How can you not have
any neural activity?
Hey, space cadet. We gotta go,
now. My boss is starting rounds.
Did you find something
that can help them?
I think I found something
that can help all of us.
That guy isn't allowed within
50 feet of a passenger's home.
What does he do? Shows up at one.
Okay, according to Ben's database,
this is Chris Levins's house. Seat 15B.
Someone's home.
Drop it!
Where's the knife?
The hell? What knife?
- He's not our guy.
- What? He's outside a passenger's house.
He's not the killer.
Killer? What are you talking
about? Get the hell off of me!
Relax, man! We're not
trying to hurt you!
There's a text from Drea.
Someone just stabbed a
third passenger to death.
Wait. So the serial
killer's still out there.
Hunting us.
I'm telling you, a giant light
leaped from Marko's brain scan.
Proving he's conscious?
Well, we saw him cry. We
already knew he was conscious.
Why get a Calling confirming
what you already knew?
That's the thing. I feel like the
Calling wasn't trying to tell me that.
It wasn't only Marko's.
All nine of them lit up.
And the beam wasn't just a light.
It was pointing straight
up like an antenna.
Like an antenna to the glow.
Yeah, but that would mean
These people have a direct
channel to divine consciousness.
How is that even possible?
The goal was never to save people.
What's the point of a powerful mutation
if you can't replicate and weaponize it?
The major.
She did this to them.
Of course she did. The torture. The
Forget torture for a
second. She figured out a way
to tune the detainees
into the God frequency.
I mean, if I could replicate that,
maybe create our own antenna
Saanvi, stop. What the
major did was awful.
Look what happened to
Marko, to all those
I'd never do that to anyone.
But if I could figure out
how the major did this,
I would know both what
to do and what not to do,
and maybe, just maybe, we can figure
out how to survive our Death Date.
A direct link to divine consciousness?
Yes, without getting anyone stuck there.
I mean, Ben, if our Callings aren't
enough to keep the Lifeboat afloat,
this is our other way.
Eden, her
her Calling led us to this.
She's a chip off the old block.
Thank you.
I know I haven't always been there.
But like you said, you never gave up.
Not on the passengers. Not on me.
It's okay.
What?
Welcome back, friend.
We're about to get started.
Oh, thank you, man.
- There you go.
- Hey, thanks.
Feel like starting off?
Sure.
My name is Zeke.
And as of today, I'm one day sober.
Did you find what you were looking for?
Daddy.
Well, I'd say so.
How did you know to send me there?
And how did that Calling
get in your little head?
Well
however it happened, thank you.
You reminded me that we're
all in the same lifeboat
and that I just might get the
chance to watch you grow up.
This is a sight for sore eyes.
All good things, Mick.
All good things.
Hey, Jared Vasquez from 129.
Do me a solid. Process this guy.
- No time.
- Make time.
He's an Xer in violation
of his court order.
Yep, all right, pal. Let's go.
Hey.
We got a problem.
That's all of them. But so
far, no mention of sapphire.
I don't understand. How could the major
tap into the God frequency without it?
You might want to ask Aria Gupta.
Dr. Gupta. Why would I talk
to her about the detainees?
Seems our old friend
conducted their intake exams.
What?
Why didn't she tell us?
Well, if she was an
accessory to torture,
it's not exactly
something you brag about.
You know, maybe she doesn't
understand what the major accomplished.
Okay, well, there's
only one way to find out.
We gotta go talk to her.
We're this close to figuring it out.
A chance for more time.
You all right?
Three of us are dead
and no clue what's next.
What do you think?
I think you don't need to go it alone.
Marko made me realize how
asleep at the wheel I've been.
Ben, you weren't asleep.
You were living a nightmare.
But if you wanna help, I'll take it.
Why did I see a bloody X
if it's not gonna lead me towards
the killer or the next victim?
Well, maybe there's more to
your Calling than meets the eye.
Let's start from the top.
I don't know, Ben. The X you drew,
there's something not
quite right about it.
I don't know. It's just It's too
Maybe we're looking at it the wrong way.
That's not an X. That's a cross.
The Calling, it was
leading me to the killer.
I was at the right house,
looking at the wrong person.
I know who it is. I
know who the murderer is.
- What the hell, J? You scared us.
- Where is Cal?
Cal? Where is he?
- Whoa. What's up?
- I need to see Cal. Where is he?
I'm here.
Talk to us, Jared. What's happening?
The Registry thinks
they found the killer.
It's Noelle, right?
Jared, tell me it's Noelle.
Why are you looking at me?
I don't even know who's dead.
What's this?
This this is the last image
the Registry has of the suspect
before he walks out of
frame, away from the victim.
Victim?
No.
No. She can't be. I was just with her.
With who? Can someone tell
me what the hell's happening?
What's happening is Gabriel
Stone's about to be arrested
for the murder of Violet Wheeler.
Jared, this has gotta
be some kind of joke.
Cal didn't leave the house tonight.
I didn't say he did.
The Registry doesn't know about
Cal. They think Gabriel's the killer.
Where were you?
Cal!
It doesn't matter where he was.
What matters is where he'll
go. Cal needs to run, now.
Previously on Manifest
Major says proceed.
They're using
massive electrical currents to
do experiments on their brains.
My son is channeling the pain
from one of the missing passengers.
It's all about the work for you.
I loved you. Vi, I'll always love you.
- Mommy!
- Give me back my daughter!
I just wanted to thank
you for saving us.
Anyone would've done the same.
I don't know if the people
I hurt will forgive me.
It's not about them.
It's about you.
And seeing yourself as
someone worthy of being loved.
We might just be on
the brink of changing
the very definition of science
as we know it.
It might very well
be the signature of
The divine?
Did I pass out?
After you insisted you
weren't gonna go back inside.
- But, Cal, we
- Don't.
We need to get you to a
doctor. You look like hell.
You're one to talk.
I can smell the alcohol
on your breath from here.
You collapsed. This is serious.
- It could be
- Anything.
It could be the flu, for all
we know. Don't worry about it.
I can sense you're worried about it.
Why don't we get your dad and
have Saanvi run some tests?
I am not telling my family.
And Saanvi's practically family.
Besides, she has enough
on her plate already.
- She'd make room.
- I said no!
They are just starting to
pull themselves together again
with Eden home.
Last thing they need is for me
to stress them out all over again,
especially over something
that could be nothing.
Fine. What If I can get you
to somebody who isn't family?
I need that address.
Let's pick up the pace.
Yeah, I got this right here.
Homicide on line 2. Where's the captain?
Just grab Thompson. We
need to get a team together.
Okay. Okay.
What the hell is going on?
Another passenger was
murdered. Anna Ross.
That's another 828er in 24 hours.
They don't think that Colvin
No, he's cleared for
everything but extortion.
Okay, so what's the plan?
Registry is all over this. Already
combing Anna's house for clues.
No, I mean, what is the
plan with the passengers?
Why is there not a cop
at every 828er's door?
That's the first thing I
suggested to the new boss.
I'm not the enemy here.
I know. I'm sorry. Just
Look. I had another Calling. There
was blood pouring down a red X.
I don't think this killer
is close to being done.
All right. I'll talk to the
captain and see what I can do. Okay?
- But in the meantime
- Steer clear of Anna's. Got it.
Saanvi, the sun is barely
up. What time did you get in?
I never left. I was going
over Cal's scar sample results.
And it turns out it's regular
tissue. Then Olive ca
Saanvi, you are gonna burn out
if you don't take
some time for yourself.
Get this. Sapphire may be the antenna
that tunes us in to
divine consciousness.
Sapphire, like on the tail fin
and the driftwood from Noah's Ark.
All I need is to get my
hands on some sapphire.
Hold on a second. What you need
is to take care of yourself.
Vance, I am.
Don't you see? There may be a
way for passengers after all.
A way for us to make it past 2024.
Of course you'll make it.
It's your father's 60th.
Oh my God! You're not listening to me!
There is no point in
buying me a plane ticket
or talking about anything
past June 2nd, 2024
because I will be dead.
We already lost you once.
I will not hear this again!
She just doesn't understand.
Of course she does. She
just doesn't want to.
Neither of us do.
Well, neither do I.
I would do anything for more time.
So why don't you? Surely there
must be somebody at the lab.
What lab, Dad?
After the plane disappeared,
the government shut it all down.
Then what about that nice man I met?
Vance? I haven't heard from him.
And your friend, the doctor? Alex?
There's no way to right the Lifeboat.
Passengers keep doing awful things.
Keep killing innocent people.
Maybe it's not about
righting the Lifeboat.
Maybe it's about
finding another way.
Okay.
Everything's been processed
under your pseudonym.
Even put "Gabriel"
down on your lab work.
Thank you for that.
And for seeing us on no notice.
Anything for friends of Dr. Bahl.
So, Gabriel
the CBC test results will
take a few more hours.
From there, you may need to come in
for a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy
to get the most accurate diagnosis.
Okay, but
But your condition
appears to be consistent
with falling out of remission.
Meaning my cancer's back.
Until the results come in,
I can't say for certain.
I know it's hard.
Try and focus on something else today.
Find a way to take
your mind off all this.
And do what?
Live your life.
Hey, sweetie.
- You wanna draw on this?
- No!
Chin up, kiddo.
You didn't like me hovering when
you were building Lincoln Logs.
Not at first, but I came around.
Hey, you still stuck in there?
Ben, Anna Ross was murdered.
- What? She was just at the house.
- I know. That's why I'm calling you.
Jared's gonna meet me at Sam's
to see if there's
something we've missed,
but two 828 murders, that's not random,
unless there's some connection
between Sam and Anna.
I hope so, for all our sakes.
Okay, uh, I will be in touch. But
until then, hunker down. Cal too.
Yeah.
Cal?
Hey, Cal?
Hi, it's Gabriel.
Please leave a message.
Oh, there you are. Thank God.
Thank God you're all right.
Why wouldn't I be?
Look, I'm sorry I
yelled at you last night.
Did something happen?
Anna Ross was murdered.
Oh my God.
Someone's killing 828ers.
Can't have anything happen,
which is why you gotta lay low.
- No leaving the house.
- Wait. What?
No one even knows who I am.
Angelina does.
Who's she gonna tell? The
police? They'll arrest her.
Cal, It's nonnegotiable.
Your life could be in danger.
Yeah, some life.
Cal.
He's got a lot on his mind.
Are those letters?
Huh.
A little young to be spelling.
I don't think she's spelling, Dad.
I think she's having a Calling.
Well, don't look at
me. Go figure it out.
- What? Now? I just told Cal to lay low.
- Eden needs your help.
She can't follow a Calling,
but you can follow it for her.
Maybe it could be something that
could help us catch this killer.
All right, you sure you don't mind?
And spend time with my granddaughter
I haven't seen in two years?
I'm positive.
All right. Don't worry, peanut.
Gonna figure this out
for the both of us.
Dad,
lock the door behind me.
Hey, I got your message.
Hey, um, thanks for
coming on your day off.
Of course. Two passenger
killings in the last 24 hours?
It's not a coincidence,
agreed. But why these two?
I don't know. I doubt we're
gonna find any answers here.
Between us and the Registry, this
place has been combed through.
Okay, we gotta comb again. There's
gotta be something in there.
Um, hello?
Oh, it's okay. It's
all right. We're police.
Did you know Sam?
We weren't besties, but he was nice.
Certainly didn't deserve all the hate.
For being a passenger, or
Those anti-828 people are no joke.
Stalking? Vandalism?
Like a Kim K robbery-level stalking.
Even cost me a babysitting gig.
Sam didn't have kids though.
Some lady and her daughter
were staying with him last year.
I offered to sit, but they took off.
I think the fear got to them.
Is this the kid?
Hey, yeah, I found the connection.
Anna and Sam both took
in Angelina at some point.
- So much for steering clear.
- Did you just hear me?
Angelina could be out
there on some revenge spree
against anyone who helped her, or,
I don't know, didn't help her enough.
Well, I could tell you where she's not.
Her psycho mom's place in Westchester.
Noelle's in New York?
Yeah, Registry got a tip.
Tossed the place. No sign of Angelina.
Well, maybe we poke the
hornet's nest a little more,
- see what we can stir up.
- Mick.
Look. I might find something
that your guys missed.
If Noelle can help me
get closer to Angelina,
to just ending this, then
Okay. Yeah, I'll send you the address.
Just, please, with everything going on,
be careful.
Yes. Thanks.
Explain to me again why
you think it's a good idea
to tear apart a $10,000 laser.
Because lasers use high-grade
sapphire in their lenses.
And right now, this lens
is all that we've got.
This is a loaner. Last thing
I need is for you to break
that.
For you to break that.
- Tell me this wasn't worth it.
- It wasn't worth it.
You just spent $10,000 on an antenna.
It's not any antenna.
Instead of waiting for the
Callings to come to us
You tune into them?
Yes. We'd have an all-access
pass to unlimited Callings.
All right. Maybe this was worth it.
Now all I need is an instruction manual.
Where you going? Why
is your shirt ironed?
Well, 'cause I'm
following doctor's orders.
I was told to do anything
other than wait for bad news,
so I'm going out.
Look, I feel for you,
sometimes literally,
but your dad was pretty explicit.
Zeke,
for once in my extremely
shortened life, I'm gonna live.
Can you please hold? Okay, thanks.
May I help you?
I hope so. I'm looking
for a place for my father.
He's He needs help.
One minute, he's with us.
The next, he's dragging me off to
the 500 Club to see Frank Sinatra.
I mean, we're pretty short-staffed.
I don't know if there's
anyone around that can
Please. I'll show myself around. I
can't manage him by myself anymore.
Yeah.
I don't know what I'm gonna do.
Okay, just a quick look around.
All right.
And don't disturb any of our clients.
Sure.
Hello, ALNI.
Yes.
Okay.
Who do you think you are?
You have some nerve thinking you
can flash your badge and barge in.
The police were already
here, demolishing my home.
Do you know what your partner
did to me? She abducted my child.
Actually, it sounds like she
saved your child from you.
How dare you! The only person Angelina
needed saving from was herself.
I bet she did kill those people.
And if that is anyone's
fault, that's yours.
I tried to protect the
world from my fallen angel,
and I was doing a fine job
of it until you took her away.
So you're telling me the last time
you saw your daughter was in Costa Rica?
The only person I would want
in my home less than you is her.
Wow! You believe all that?
Not a word.
- She certainly doesn't like you.
- I don't need her to.
If she's not gonna give us
proof that Angelina's involved,
maybe the bodies will.
Reynaldo.
Stone.
I haven't seen you
since you left the force,
which begs the question,
why are you in my morgue?
Two 828ers are dead, and I think
they were killed by the same person.
I also have a feeling
that person's not done.
We have a theory.
But to get this new boss to
believe it, we need proof.
Well,
both victims have identical markings
made in blood on the
palms of their left hand.
So you are correct in thinking
it could be the same killer.
Someone 130-135 pounds minimum.
How do you know that?
The knife was driven so
deeply into each body,
the hilt left bruising,
and that takes real weight.
There goes our proof.
Angelina's 110, tops.
What are you thinking?
I used to think someone was
trying to pin it on an Xer,
but maybe our killer just simply is one.
They were harassing Sam.
Hmm, they clearly know where to find
us, so let's go find one of them.
- Excuse me!
- Oh, I'm sorry. I apologize.
This is, uh this is my wife.
- Sorry I'm late. Traffic was crazy.
- Don't worry, babe.
Dad's gonna love this place. Do
you mind if we take one more lap?
Go ahead.
Hello, ALNI.
Okay, what was so important
that I needed to rush over?
Not what.
Who.
The detained passengers.
How?
Eden's Calling led me to them.
Someone must have dumped them here.
Well, we still don't know what
the major did to them or why.
I think Eden sent us here
to find out. The question
Who the heck are you?
You cannot be in here.
You can't disturb my patients.
Disturb them? Um, they don't
have any brain function.
Wow, cold much? They're still people.
- Let's go.
- You don't understand.
Buddy, don't make me call security.
Okay. Our apologies. We're leaving.
- What? We gotta get back in there.
- Like there's any chance I'd leave now.
Look. I made a promise
to myself a long time ago
that I would never give up on anyone.
Not ever again.

A big, dark cave I can just crawl into.
Well, I'm fresh out of those, but
I do have a bed you could crawl into.
What time do you get off?
Uh, Violet?
- Hi.
- Hey, thanks for meeting me.
I would've come to you,
but with my new job
Oh, don't sweat it. Seriously.
I'm the one that texted you.
Glad you did.
Uh, I've been meaning
to return your coat,
but I wasn't sure how to
reach the hero that saved me.
Oh, please. You're the hero.
This is my favorite jacket.
Uh
So, um
So
what did you have in mind to
to do?
Unless you just wanted your jacket.
Oh, no. Uh, um
I'm easy. Whatever you want.
Well, how about I buy you a drink?
The least I could do after everything.
I mean, only if you want to.
Yeah, a drink.
Uh-huh.
Lead the way. Okay, all right.
For sure.
- Take a look at this.
- Wait.
- You're gonna see what I found.
- I've read enough.
"Enough soft-pedaling
with the 828 passengers."
"Time to treat them like
the vermin they are."
How do you put up with this
shit? All the hate 24/7?
I don't. Just gotta tune out the crazies
and learn to find out
which ones are harmless
and which ones mean business.
- XOUT828?
- Look at his most recent posts.
He has a whole game plan
for wiping out 828ers,
starting with passengers
being marked with blood.
Wait. He said blood specifically,
like how the killer uses blood
to mark an X on the victim's palm?
It's not public information.
I think we're gonna need a name
and address for this XOUT828.
It sounds like you're
gonna need to call Drea.
I thought this was a
normal bar. I can't do this.
Of course you can.
- Well, I'm not good at singing.
- That's what makes it fun.
No one's good. Haven't
you done this before?
You're a karaoke virgin?
Is that what they're calling it now?
Don't worry. I'll make sure your
first time's one to remember.
Are you kidding me?
Please. I'm a doctor.
One look at their charts.
- That's all we ask. Then we'll go.
- Out of the effing question.
These people were in my care.
Oh yeah? Then what are they doing here?
I don't know,
but there could be something buried
in those charts that could help me
help you take care of them.
If you wanna help, leave.
If I violate HIPAA, I get fired,
and then my patients
are really out of luck.
I am the only one who cares for them.
The facility doesn't even care that
no one knows who these people are.
We know who they are.
They're Flight 828 passengers.
Okay. I see.
You're some of the folks that
are fascinated by the plane.
Okay.
You're wrong. We're some of those
folks that were on the plane.
Hey!
She's not lying. That's Marlon.
His wife, Joelle. And that's Lena.
And that's
Marko.
Oh my God.
Marko.
I'll never forget what the major did.
Those horrible experiments. The
connection you had with my son.
Eden led me here for a reason.
To remember.
It's not good enough to
help myself. I have to help.
All of us.
Forgive me, Marko.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
That can't be.
What did you do?
I asked for his forgiveness.
Well, I think he gave it to you.
He's conscious.
I think these passengers do
have function. They're awake.
Five minutes with their records.
If I can get inside their minds,
imagine the type of care
you could provide for them.
Five minutes, but that is all.
- Anyone catches wind of what we're doing
- They won't. We'll be in and out.
Just one of you.
Go. I'll stay here. I wanna
spend some time with these guys.
All right, so apparently our
guy XOUT828, AKA Greg Turner,
isn't allowed within 50
feet of any passenger.
You really think an Xer is gonna
behave based on a piece of paper?
There's only one way to find out.
We wait.
Figured it was gonna be a long
day. And, yes, before you ask,
there is extra avocado.
Yeah, I'm not making that mistake twice.
Yeah, there it is. Good job.
There's our guy.
Thanks for coming.
I've written all this down for
Cal, but it bears repeating.
This is a powerful opioid for the pain.
No more than two of
these every 12 hours.
Now, we aren't there yet, but
if Cal does end up needing chemo,
he has to stop taking those.
They can mask high temperatures.
His doctor will need to
know if he has a fever.
I can't hold on to these.
I'm all of 18 hours sober.
I've been so focused on
making others' pain go away,
I forgot about me.
My pain.
And now I have no room
left to process it.
I haven't even told
my wife I relapsed yet.
Sorry. It's the first time
I'm saying this out loud.
I don't know what to do.
I know the truth will hurt her.
- But if she finds I kept this secret
- It'll hurt her even more.
It's the nature of secrets.
You've been there.
I have so been there.
I can't believe this is the first
time I'm saying this out loud.
But on the day 828
was supposed to land,
I was at JFK
waiting for Saanvi.
Secrecy breeds pain, Zeke.
Promise me you'll love yourself
enough to make room for it.

I don't understand. I saw
you crying. You're conscious.
How can you not have
any neural activity?
Hey, space cadet. We gotta go,
now. My boss is starting rounds.
Did you find something
that can help them?
I think I found something
that can help all of us.
That guy isn't allowed within
50 feet of a passenger's home.
What does he do? Shows up at one.
Okay, according to Ben's database,
this is Chris Levins's house. Seat 15B.
Someone's home.
Drop it!
Where's the knife?
The hell? What knife?
- He's not our guy.
- What? He's outside a passenger's house.
He's not the killer.
Killer? What are you talking
about? Get the hell off of me!
Relax, man! We're not
trying to hurt you!
There's a text from Drea.
Someone just stabbed a
third passenger to death.
Wait. So the serial
killer's still out there.
Hunting us.
I'm telling you, a giant light
leaped from Marko's brain scan.
Proving he's conscious?
Well, we saw him cry. We
already knew he was conscious.
Why get a Calling confirming
what you already knew?
That's the thing. I feel like the
Calling wasn't trying to tell me that.
It wasn't only Marko's.
All nine of them lit up.
And the beam wasn't just a light.
It was pointing straight
up like an antenna.
Like an antenna to the glow.
Yeah, but that would mean
These people have a direct
channel to divine consciousness.
How is that even possible?
The goal was never to save people.
What's the point of a powerful mutation
if you can't replicate and weaponize it?
The major.
She did this to them.
Of course she did. The torture. The
Forget torture for a
second. She figured out a way
to tune the detainees
into the God frequency.
I mean, if I could replicate that,
maybe create our own antenna
Saanvi, stop. What the
major did was awful.
Look what happened to
Marko, to all those
I'd never do that to anyone.
But if I could figure out
how the major did this,
I would know both what
to do and what not to do,
and maybe, just maybe, we can figure
out how to survive our Death Date.
A direct link to divine consciousness?
Yes, without getting anyone stuck there.
I mean, Ben, if our Callings aren't
enough to keep the Lifeboat afloat,
this is our other way.
Eden, her
her Calling led us to this.
She's a chip off the old block.
Thank you.
I know I haven't always been there.
But like you said, you never gave up.
Not on the passengers. Not on me.
It's okay.
What?
Welcome back, friend.
We're about to get started.
Oh, thank you, man.
- There you go.
- Hey, thanks.
Feel like starting off?
Sure.
My name is Zeke.
And as of today, I'm one day sober.
Did you find what you were looking for?
Daddy.
Well, I'd say so.
How did you know to send me there?
And how did that Calling
get in your little head?
Well
however it happened, thank you.
You reminded me that we're
all in the same lifeboat
and that I just might get the
chance to watch you grow up.
This is a sight for sore eyes.
All good things, Mick.
All good things.
Hey, Jared Vasquez from 129.
Do me a solid. Process this guy.
- No time.
- Make time.
He's an Xer in violation
of his court order.
Yep, all right, pal. Let's go.
Hey.
We got a problem.
That's all of them. But so
far, no mention of sapphire.
I don't understand. How could the major
tap into the God frequency without it?
You might want to ask Aria Gupta.
Dr. Gupta. Why would I talk
to her about the detainees?
Seems our old friend
conducted their intake exams.
What?
Why didn't she tell us?
Well, if she was an
accessory to torture,
it's not exactly
something you brag about.
You know, maybe she doesn't
understand what the major accomplished.
Okay, well, there's
only one way to find out.
We gotta go talk to her.
We're this close to figuring it out.
A chance for more time.
You all right?
Three of us are dead
and no clue what's next.
What do you think?
I think you don't need to go it alone.
Marko made me realize how
asleep at the wheel I've been.
Ben, you weren't asleep.
You were living a nightmare.
But if you wanna help, I'll take it.
Why did I see a bloody X
if it's not gonna lead me towards
the killer or the next victim?
Well, maybe there's more to
your Calling than meets the eye.
Let's start from the top.
I don't know, Ben. The X you drew,
there's something not
quite right about it.
I don't know. It's just It's too
Maybe we're looking at it the wrong way.
That's not an X. That's a cross.
The Calling, it was
leading me to the killer.
I was at the right house,
looking at the wrong person.
I know who it is. I
know who the murderer is.
- What the hell, J? You scared us.
- Where is Cal?
Cal? Where is he?
- Whoa. What's up?
- I need to see Cal. Where is he?
I'm here.
Talk to us, Jared. What's happening?
The Registry thinks
they found the killer.
It's Noelle, right?
Jared, tell me it's Noelle.
Why are you looking at me?
I don't even know who's dead.
What's this?
This this is the last image
the Registry has of the suspect
before he walks out of
frame, away from the victim.
Victim?
No.
No. She can't be. I was just with her.
With who? Can someone tell
me what the hell's happening?
What's happening is Gabriel
Stone's about to be arrested
for the murder of Violet Wheeler.
Jared, this has gotta
be some kind of joke.
Cal didn't leave the house tonight.
I didn't say he did.
The Registry doesn't know about
Cal. They think Gabriel's the killer.
Where were you?
Cal!
It doesn't matter where he was.
What matters is where he'll
go. Cal needs to run, now.
