![]() It’s like Michaela said: “If we have zero control then what’s the point of us coming back in the first place?” Thankfully, we could see that Pete, Jace’s younger brother, was sympathetic to Cal in giving him a blanket and that circumstances would arise that could be taken advantage of. Surely they could see how difficult it would be to let a murderous meth cook go free just because of a voice in her head no matter how reliable it’s been in the past, especially since the callings’ innate goodness was recently called into question. It wasn’t quite as fun to see Ben and Grace so angry with Michaela for not heeding the calling’s insistence that she let the criminals go. Adding the tour group crossing the bridge to prevent Ben from getting to Cal was a nice touch, too, as it felt like one of those nightmares where the sleeper is walking through thickened air. This scenario is very believable in today’s New York City, especially when combined with the skepticism of the beat cop. It seemed at first like the exchange would be made without issue until the good samaritan showed up to tell Michaela she left her bag under the bench. The attempted exchange in public held much more tension, no matter what Manifest viewers may have thought about the questionable way in which Jared and Michaela were able to get a bag full of meth out of evidence lockup. Plus the captain has proven herself reliable in the past! The most frustrating aspect of the subterfuge in this episode was that they went behind Captain Bowers’ back twice to get the job done even though it’s doubtful it would have made a difference once the trio that had Cal was in the cabin far from civilization. ![]() This recurring attitude towards justified deception in Manifest can be a bit tiresome, but it was enjoyable to see both Jared and Drea join in on the conspiracy this time. That journey included the somewhat rocky attempt to rescue Cal, and as usual, Michaela is not a fan of involving her police colleagues even when callings or the danger of being called crazy or an insider aren’t involved. What if Griffin, the criminal who drowned on dry land in last season’s finale, only had a death date because he abused his callings? Zeke’s sudden recovery after saving Cal would appear to indicate that the deadline is surmountable by following the visions, which is what makes Saanvi’s distress over her lost-cause cure so upsetting, but despite a lot of giant question marks remaining, the journey itself was a fitting conclusion to a sophomore season that outdid its predecessor. Manifest Season 2 Episode 13Īmongst all the hostage maneuverings in the Manifest finale, which were until the final moments quite secondary, a critical possibility surrounding the death date suddenly arose.
