Manifest (2018) s03e03 Episode Script

Previously on "Manifest"
I'm assuming you didn't hear that.
Told you I almost died.
Congestive heart failure
I needed a transplant.
She was my donor.
I saw Evie. She's okay.
It warms our hearts each time
you walk in the door.
My mom worked for the government.
They think what happened to her
is somehow related to Flight 828.
I'm sorry!
I killed her. What do we do?
The three guys who kidnapped Cal
they're alive again.
For 84 days, we just keep
Cal far, far away from them.
Question is, where?
- Let me guess. You need something.
- I need help.
There, that's it.
Th-Those are peacock feathers.
Go to her.
T-That photo belongs to me.
This is a picture of me.
Boy staring at the girl
with the slushie?
That's me.
You were right. He's alive.
Our government will
classify him as a spy.
Vance isn't the biggest news in Cuba.
- So, what is it?
- A piece of 828.
How did you find out
about the Montego Air
Flight 828 tailfin?
A boy drew me a picture.
This boy sneak you into Cuba, too?
No, that was my NSA training.
Where were you before that?
New York mostly.
You went undetected for 18 months
in the busiest city in the world?
I ordered in a lot.
Do you think this is a joke, Mr. Vance?
Forget the PR nightmare.
The return of a dead division
head would wreak on the NSA.
The Attorney General is
contemplating charging you
with faking your own death.
Technically not a crime.
Done yet?
Wife's expecting me for supper.
Let me explain to you what is a crime.
Fraud.
Violating embargoes set forth
by the United States government.
Treason.
You may think you're going home tonight,
but I'm questioning whether
you ever get to go home.
Kathryn Fitz is the Major?
And her vanishing could
mean that she's coming
after 828ers again.
Her daughter showed up to
the precinct looking for you.
That can't be a coincidence.
I'll contact the Department of Defense.
Are there any other passengers
that know anything?
Yeah.
Saanvi.
The Major posed as her therapist.
They met together for months.
We got to give Saanvi a heads up
if the Major's planning something.
Yeah, I'll go on my way to campus.
Saanvi should hear this in person.
No, I'll go.
I want to talk to her anyways.
I'll keep you guys posted.
Thanks.
You know you don't have to be
a hero and take everything on.
What's that supposed to mean?
It means you're really
focused on everyone else
and you never take care of yourself.
Will you show Saanvi your hand?
Yeah, I have, but the hand is
the least of my worries, Mick.
- Mm.
- My family is in hiding.
The Meth Heads are still out there.
Listen, I've got to go
to campus with Olive.
TJ sent some artifacts from Egypt.
Maybe we'll find a mythological
clue that can help.
Yeah, I think that's a long shot, Ben.
Well, right now I need any shot.
Eden's not even gonna remember
who I am in three months.
Ben, I think you need to be laying lo
Listen, I can't just sit still!
We are doing everything we can.
If the Meth Heads are like us,
who knows what they're
capable of seeing, doing?
I will find them, okay?
Whatever it takes.
- Eagan Tehrani.
-
I got a busy day, Eagan.
Why'd you fall off my board?
Pete, you could've run and you didn't.
So come on. Talk to me.
Give me a name, an address, anything.
Okay, look.
Forget the fact that I'm a cop.
You came out of that lake for a reason.
This is your chance at redemption.
You and I, we were supposed
to find each other again.
Do you believe in fate?
The girl. From the King Kone.
What about her?
It's fate.
S-She knew where I
was, h-how to find me.
She just stared at me.
Yeah, she was scared.
No.
She wasn't afraid of me.
S-She was brave.
Okay, Pete, I'm gonna need you to focus.
I need your help finding Jace and Kory.
- Where are they?
- Take me back to my cell.
Hey, you make any headway with Pete?
Oh, here we go again.
A new Calling?
Actually, an old one.
It's Evie's heart.
Green and blue and turquoise.
The feathers were so long. It felt real.
Maybe it was a Calling.
Angelina had a Calling.
It led us to a stained-glass
angel holding scales.
It also had peacock feathers.
That has to be connected.
This whole thing just
hurts my head sometimes.
Yeah, I know.
I miss you guys.
Give Mom a big hug for me.
Bye.
Eagan?
I'm Ben Stone.
- I was on Flight 828
- Ben Stone, huh?
So you saw it, too.
So you know about the Callings?
Don't we all by now?
"Callings" it's kind of
a creepy way to explain
what's happening to us,
don't you think, Professor?
How'd you know my job?
I was a courier in my past life,
made a lot of deliveries to campus.
Ever do that?
Think about how your
life used to be before?
All the time.
How was your life when you got back?
My job, my rent-stabilized apartment,
my girlfriend all gone.
Sorry to hear that.
Yeah, losing my apartment hurt the most.
Now I just play chess for
cash, follow the Callings
whenever they come
poking, live off the grid.
Explains why I couldn't
get in touch with you.
Don't take it personally.
I just didn't feel like bonding
over bizarro visions in my head.
Speaking of, the kid we saw,
he looked passed out.
He could be in danger.
What kid?
All I saw was a bunch of art
stuff crashing to the ground.
Eagan, could we talk privately?
I think this kid's life
could be at stake.
Checkmate.
Checkmate.
And checkmate.
Let's go.
Glen? Beverly?
Hello?
Hey, Beverly, are you okay?
Hey, it's me Michaela.
Where's Glen?
Glen?
Glen?!
Thanks, Doctor.
Next customer?
Hey, Jared.
Are you feeling okay?
Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
Actually, I came here to talk to you.
- Do you have a minute?
- Yeah.
Uh
I think you know Major Kathryn Fitz.
Apparently she's gone missing.
Ben and Mick filled me in
on your history with her,
so I figured you'd want to
hear the news in person.
Um, uh, missing?
Yeah, I was hoping
you can, I don't know,
give me some information
about your sessions with her.
I know it's hard to talk about this.
We just want to keep you safe.
She ever share any personal
information with you?
Mnh-mnh.
Anything about her friends,
family, children?
I didn't know she had any kids.
Yeah, a daughter.
That's actually who
came looking for her.
It's Mick.
I gotta handle this.
Look, feel free to call me if
you remember anything, okay?
Okay.
I don't understand why
the Calling would give us
some of the same information,
but not all of it.
Maybe we're supposed to put our clues
together to solve the puzzle.
Chocolate and peanut butter.
Yeah, but this one happened so fast.
There's no way to remember everything.
I remember everything, all day long.
How do you think I know
1,327 opening chess moves?
You have a photographic memory.
Tell me what you do remember.
Uh
painting of a boat on the sea.
A rumbling.
Radiator, a gold frog.
It's a toad.
Bronze unicorn.
Light shimmering through a window.
An urn.
Cowboy statue.
Marble monkey.
What are you doing?
Re-creating the calling.
Gum wrapper unicorn,
bottle cap urn, paperclip
- Monkey.
- monkey.
Keep going. I'll be back.
Hey, what's up?
The Calling took me to Beverly's house.
Glen's dead.
Massive heart attack,
ME said this morning.
Oh. Mick, I'm so sorry.
I don't understand why
the universe would do this.
Yeah. I've been asking
myself the same question.
Michaela? Mick?
Hey, I gotta go. I'll call you later.
Zeke, what
I was at the clinic when
I got your message.
Figured you'd want him here.
Hey.
Hey.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Jared.
You look so grown and
handsome in a suit.
Evie won't believe it when she sees you.
I'm really sorry that
I didn't call you first.
It just When I saw Glen's
body, everything happened
Hey, hey, hey, there's
nothing to apologize for.
I'm here to help.
I saw my mom struggle
with my grandad's dementia.
Let me know what I
can do and I'll do it.
Just you being here is enough.
Amid renewed interest in the
passengers of Flight 828,
many wonder what happened
to the returnees.
Today we have an exclusive interview
Disappointed they didn't ask you?
Hardly.
Can't wait for the media to find
something new to fixate on
so I can have my family back.
Hey, boyo. Did you have
fun exploring the woods?
Yeah, I saw a peacock.
Like a lawn ornament?
That's flamingo, kiddo.
- I know what a peacock looks like.
- Do you?
'Cause I've lived here my whole
life never seen a peacock.
You know what, sweetie? Why
don't you go get washed up?
You want to cut him some slack?
This transition hasn't
been easy for him.
He's 12, Grace.
White lies at his age
aren't cute anymore.
My son is not a liar.
And I'd appreciate it if you didn't
talk about my family like that.
Your family?
That's the second time you said that.
What does that make me, Grace?
Never mind, I already know.
Oh, come on, Tarik, that's not fair.
No, what's not fair is you
leaving me alone with Dad.
Do you know what it's like to watch
someone you love get sick and die?
'Cause while you were doing
whatever you were doing for 11 years,
I was here!
Every day, I'd carry
that man to the bathroom
and watch him cough up blood,
then give him a TV tray, then
head down to the restaurant
to try to save it from drowning in debt.
It was hell, but I did it
because that's what family does.
We look out for each other.
Is this where your boyfriend works?
When he's not studying in Cairo.
Anyone special back home?
Promise not to laugh.
I'm almost 30 years old,
at least according to
my birth certificate,
and I've never even kissed anyone.
Which is probably why
I'm weirdly obsessed
with this guy in jail I don't even know.
Everyone's destined to meet
their soul mate, and who knows?
- Stranger things
- Shh, shh, shh!
High-pitched sound waves can
disrupt the restoration process.
Obviously.
Come on, this is what TJ was talking
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back up, okay?
Sorry.
I'm Olive, and this is Angelina.
And these are priceless.
Okay, well, my father said
that we could come in here
and check out some of
the Egyptian artifacts.
Of course. Nepotism and inexperience.
What could go wrong?
Sit. Don't touch.
We've alphabetized, done anagrams.
None of this makes sense together.
The urn.
It had numbers reflected on it 601.
What What if it wasn't a design,
but a designation, like "room 601"?
I didn't see any numbers.
But part of my Calling was
obscured by this blinding light.
That's why you didn't see the kid.
The light was shimmering,
like it was reflecting off of water.
This was a building, so
more likely the reflection
of water off another building.
There are hundreds of
waterside buildings.
The objects.
A-Alone, they're just
an assortment of items,
but together, they make up a collection,
- like a museum.
- Museum.
I made drops to to all the museums
back when I was a courier.
Museums by the water.
Uh, Museum of Jewish
Heritage. The Whitney.
How the hell are we supposed to know
what's hanging inside all these places?
The art. None of it was
hung up or displayed.
It was being stored.
I think I know where to go.
We've been at this for days.
What more do you want from me?
The truth, Mr. Vance.
You and I are done.
I've given 33 years of
my life to this country
five tours, two wars,
no questions asked.
You assigned me to find
out the truth about 828.
I got shot at, shot down,
still never wavered.
So you wanna lock me
up, say it to my face.
Are you buying all of this?
I believe him.
It's your call, Director.
So, what is this place?
Fancy name for self-storage.
It's where the not exactly 1%
hide their stuff from the IRS
and their ex-wives.
How do you suppose we get in?
Now, that I don't know.
Come on.
The teenager from the Calling
Think he was homeless?
Snuck in to avoid the cold?
You're not suggesting we crawl in there?
This kid's in danger. He needs our help.
Just so you know, the
average weight of a city rat
is one pound.
Duly noted.
You and Michaela
are such a sweet couple.
You better marry her.
Where is that girl, anyway?
Which girl?
Oh.
There you go, Beverly.
That is such a beautiful diamond.
Actually, it's a white sapphire.
Jared has good taste.
Not awkward.
Alright, I'm gonna get going.
I have a few things to
wrap up at the precinct.
- Thank you.
- Of course.
Zeke.
- Thank you, young man.
- Mm-hmm.
Beverly, this is Zeke.
T-This is actually my husband.
Heartbeats again?
Yeah, I-I don't I don't understand.
They're getting stronger right now.
I think they're coming from the
The DVDs?
You are so funny.
How do you like mine, Miss Michaela?
I love it.
What do you think of mine, Miss Evie?
Very nice.
I have an idea. Let's switch.
- Oh, this is sweet. Yeah.
- Switch. Alright.
You're lucky we're best friends.
Best friends forever.
Oh, look at the two of you.
- Tag!
- Ah!
- Oh, that's sweet.
- Get back here!
Hey, hey! Hey!
Safe!
Evie!
This is gonna take forever.
You can't time-lapse restoration, okay?
It's not Instagram.
Defensive much?
You have two sets of free hands here.
We're not doing anything.
Took me 4 years, 10
courses, and a thesis
on Medieval Egyptian
artisans to be let in here.
Technically, yeah, I'm
still in high school,
but I could write a
dissertation on AlZuras.
You know about Al-Zuras?
15th century European merchant,
known for his lithographs.
16th century.
Surprised I know about
more than just Instagram?
- I stand corrected.
- So, let's start over.
I'm Olive.
This is Angelina, and
we'd really love to help.
Some ground rules.
One gloves at all times.
Two no cellphones.
Three don't expect
credit when I publish.
Okay.
Olive.
Isn't this a
Peacock feather.
Did you ever figure out if that
peacock you saw was real?
Kind of a sore subject right now.
- What do you mean?
- Mom and Tarik got in a huge fight.
Over a peacock?
At first, but then they just
started screaming at each other.
Like us when you flushed
Yurtle down the toilet.
I thought I was freeing him.
Well, it was that bad.
Well, no matter the fight,
we always worked it out.
We're going on a treasure hunt.
A very important treasure hunt.
"X" marks the spot, a circle with a dot.
Spiders crawling up your back.
Hey, Ol.
I miss you.
I miss you, too, bud.
- Where's 601?
- There!
Damn it.
Hello?
Someone in there?
You got a credit card, ID?
Yeah.
Multi-talented.
Where is he? Where's the kid?
Must've got something wrong.
I'm never wrong about Callings.
Well, the Callings are
never wrong either.
What if the reflections threw us off?
I saw 601, but the
upsidedown image is
- 109.
- Look at you, Professor.
The rumblings!
I think this time it's for real.
We got to find that kid, now!
- Where did you get this?
- Right under there.
Callings don't get
more specific than that.
Oh, there you are.
Michaela, you are watching
this because I'm gone.
I hope it was painless.
I've made arrangements
for Beverly to go live
in an assisted-living facility.
As for you, Michaela, getting you back
was like getting part of Evie back, too.
It was priceless.
As a small token, we would
like you to have the house.
We love you, Michaela.
Godspeed.
Sorry, did he just give you a house?
He just gave us a house.
What's that smell?
It's gas. Cover your mouth.
Pipe must've burst.
Yeah, I'd say this is turning
into a 911 situation.
No service.
Over here!
Oh, God, the gas leak. He's out.
Shallow breath. He's alive.
Come on, we gotta move him
before the room collapses.
- Leave me alone.
- Alright, my name's Ben.
- What's yours?
- Caleb.
Caleb
we got to haul ass or
we're gonna die in here.
Can you handle the kid on your own?
- W-Why?
- Gas valves are in the basement.
You take him, I'll shut them off.
Are you crazy? You could die.
You said it yourself, the
Calling sent us here together.
For all we know, there's other people.
Alright, go. Go!
Come on!
Spoke to the facility coordinator.
They'll pick up Beverly tonight.
They think it's best to
move her right away.
There's no way I can accept this house.
It just It doesn't feel right.
Then we sell it.
Give the money to charity
MADD, Alzheimer's research.
You don't have to decide right now.
No, right now, I have to move
Beverly out of the only home
she's known for 40 years.
Why are my my pictures in this bag?
Who put my things in here?
Beverly, um
I-I put them in there.
You're moving today, okay?
I-I-I don't want to go anywhere.
Glen will be home soon.
Glen's not coming home, Beverly.
I don't like it when
you fib, young lady.
- You stop your lying.
- She's not lying, Beverly.
I-I'm not talking to you.
Who are you, anyway?!
Evie! Glen!
- No, hey
- Evie!
- Beverly, Beverly, hey
- Glen!
They're not Beverly,
no, they're not
they're not coming home, okay?
Where are they? Where are they?!
- No, right now
- When are they coming home?!
No! No! No, no!
No, you you're trying to hurt me!
You You stop it. You stop it!
You stop it!
Beverly.
I know how you're feeling.
You're confused. Your heart is racing.
It's scary.
When I feel like that,
I like to smell the flowers
and blow out the candles.
Smell the flowers
blow out the candles.
That's it.
Smell the flowers, blow out the candles.
That's great. Yeah, that's it.
There you go.
Smell the flowers.
That's it, keep going.
Keep it up.
You know what else helps me?
Finding something that gives me comfort.
Do you have anything like that?
This help?
Oh.
How did How did you do that?
Don't know. Just had a feeling.
My Evie made this for me.
She was brave.
- You okay?
- Uh, yeah.
Um, I'll be right back.
This looks just like Archangel Michael.
Couple of centuries and
a few thousand miles off.
This is Ma'at, Egyptian goddess
of justice and the afterlife.
She'd place the deceased's
heart on a scale of justice
and the feather of truth on the other.
If the heart was lighter
than the feather,
then they passed on to the
blissful Field of Reeds.
A metaphorical weighing of souls.
Yeah, exactly.
But But this depiction, it's unusual.
In every representation
I've come across,
Ma'at takes a heart and weighs
it against an ostrich feather.
But this is too colorful
to be an ostrich.
- It's almost like
- A peacock.
What is this missing section?
Wonder if anyone's
written about this before.
I'm gonna go check the database.
Don't touch anything.
So, the scales, afterlife
you think it's all about the Death Date?
I think it's a sign that
when you come back,
you're being judged.
Like getting a second chance.
- Really?
- I'm sorry.
Sorry.
Hi. Hey.
Hey.
Are you with Angelina?
The pivot.
Fires inside and that one good for two.
Goin' on a treasure hunt,
a very important treasure hunt,
"X" marks the spot, circle with a dot.
Spiders crawling up your back
Can't believe you remember
that stupid rhyme.
Actually, I didn't
till I overheard Cal
and Olive reciting it.
Brought me back.
You taught it to them?
Just like your dad taught it to us.
I really loved him.
He was always there for
me when I needed him.
And I should've been there for
I should've been there for
both of you when you needed me.
I wasn't just busy.
Um, Cal had leukemia.
He had just turned 6.
He was He was so sick.
And just so little.
God.
I-I-Is Is he better?
Yeah, he's been in remission
for over a year now.
I'm glad he's okay.
Me too.
I wish
I'd been there for you.
But at least we have each other now.
How did you know?
Know what?
That I needed to see Pete.
Long story short, I, uh, had a Calling
that took me on a journey that I thought
had nothing to do with you,
and in fact, it had everything
to do with you.
Hey.
You're safe, okay? We're
We're right here watching.
You have a visitor.
I keep looking at this
picture thinking it's
some wild coincidence,
but I-I think it's more.
I think it's a sign.
Michaela saved me.
I-I think I'm supposed to save you.
I-I heard this
voice in my head.
It said, "Go to her".
I-I think I'm supposed
to be with you, too.
Eagan!
Where are you?!
Eagan!
Come on.
Alright.
Close call. Nice work, Professor.
You're alive. W-When the
room collapsed, I thought
That gas got so intense I had
to turn around and head out.
That's my cue. Nice working with you.
Ooh. Wait, that's it?
Kid's alive. We're in one piece.
Calling stopped. Win-win-win.
And I, for one, don't have to explain
all this to New York's finest.
Hey, hey, you okay?
My head hurts. I wanna go home.
Alright, we'll get you
checked out first,
and then I'll drive you home.
- Thanks.
- Okay.
Where's the other guy?
He's
Hey.
You found something?
Please.
Is she alive?
That I don't know.
But what I found is, um
It's complicated.
Honestly, I'm not sure
you'll want to hear this.
I'm her daughter. It's
not a choice for me.
Sarah, your mother is a
high-level government operative
tasked with studying Flight 828.
She often engaged in
extra-legal activities.
English, please.
Torture, abduction.
It could have something to
do with her disappearance.
So, where is she now?
I wish I knew.
Whatever she did, she's still my mom.
Help me find her.
Please.
In light of your actions,
we've decided not to pursue charges.
Effective immediately,
you are hereby reinstated.
Welcome back to the NSA, sir.
Save it. I'm not coming back.
- Excuse me?
- You must be out your damn minds.
Want to talk about treason?
Every move I made working for the NSA
was shadowed by your
operative, Kathryn Fitz.
She tried to kill me, almost did.
I'm not about to get
in her crosshairs again.
Major Fitz was found dead
in New Orleans months ago.
Her covert op was shut down.
You come back, 828 is yours.
Just tell me what you need.
I don't need anything.
It's you who needs me.
But like I said, I'm out.
Bob, I know you said nothing
would change your mind
but what if I show you
something I know will?
- Hey, Mom.
- Caleb!
I'm sorry I ran away. It was stupid.
And I didn't know if you'd
want me to come back home.
I will always love you, no matter what.
This is Ben.
He saved my life.
Thank you.
I'm glad he's safe. Take care, Caleb.
The Lord has blessed me twice over.
Look who's here. It's safe.
It's just a man dropping
off your brother.
What's up?
Everything okay with Angelina?
Yeah, I'm just concerned about Beverly.
You have nothing to worry about.
We've logged Beverly's preferred
meals into our system,
so she's set for dinner tonight.
She's going to feel
right at home with us.
Okay, when can we visit her?
First thing tomorrow.
Okay.
Oh, don't be scared, baby.
I'll be home for supper.
- Okay.
- Here, you be a brave girl now.
Thank you.
Wait. Where are you taking my suitcase?
Oh, come outside, dear. I'll show you.
No, Glen and Evie will be
home for supper soon.
I-I can't leave. I can't go anywhere.
Where are you taking me?
Stop, stop, stop!
This is Beverly's home.
This is all she's ever known.
Zeke and I will take care of her.
Mick, Beverly needs 24/7 care.
Okay, great, so we'll move in here.
We'll We'll hire someone to help us.
We'll get an aid. We'll
learn to do this ourselves.
You sure you can live here?
Yeah, this is what Evie would
want. This is what I want.
And what the Calling wants.
But you've already paid
for the first month.
Consider it a donation.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
So, what are we having for supper?
Whatever you ask for, I will make.
Zeke will make. I'm not that good.
He's much better than me.
Sorry I'm late. Can't find
my campus ID, my work bag.
It's all good. Just one
of those days, huh?
Could be worse.
Another passenger and I helped a kid.
This guy, Eagan
he's better at the Callings than us.
And I don't trust him, which
scares the hell out of me.
Anyway, are these the
fragments TJ sent over?
Yeah, most of them, but, uh,
I don't know what they mean.
You've been here all day.
Give yourself a break.
But this
this is important.
You know, I thought the papyrus
was gonna give me a clue
about the Death Date,
