Previously on Manifest…
Someone is stalking me. It transformed and then just shattered.
Do any of these details mean anything to you?
There was a… a stained-glass window at my old school in Syosset.
Sapphire.
I have found sapphire all over the tail fin,
but also all over Ben's hand.
This looks just like Archangel Michael.
This is Maat, Egyptian goddess of justice in the afterlife.
A metaphorical weighing of souls.
I knew that Eden would never let me get hurt.
She just proved that she and I are connected.
I wear my scar on the outside.
Yours is on the inside.
You're a dragon, Cal.
Mm.
You look like hell.
Good morning to you too.
How's the leg?
-Delightful.
Guess you're not seeing cherry blossoms again, huh?
Mm-mm. Ash,
in keeping with our apocalyptic-themed anniversary.
I thought saving 191 souls was overwhelming,
but if the fate of the Lifeboat determines the fate of billions of people, then…
what do we do?
Easy. Whatever we have to.
I love you, Zeke Landon.
Right back at you, Stone.
How on earth did you get Eden to eat all those melon slices?
I called them unicorn cookies.
Well, you've got her number.
I'm glad you two are doing so well.
Yeah, me too. All things considered.
Although she did… ask me to see her mommy today.
Guys, come on.
I can't even clear my throat without you acting like it's over.
I don't look that bad, do I?
Tough crowd.
-Come on. You want some water? -No.
Is TJ coming over?
Uh, no, probably not.
Seriously?
Any news on Eagan and the sapphire?
Yeah, Eagan's in the ER,
and, uh, Jared's gonna go see him when the hospital gives them the green light.
What? Jared's going, not you?
Guys, I'm dying.
But you know who else is?
All of you. You have to keep trying.
There's nothing more important than being here with you right now.
But what if the sapphire could save me?
Seriously, would you wanna find that out after I'm gone?
Mom would want us to keep pushing.
Keep fighting.
Then let's find that sapphire.
None of these people know how little time they have left.
I'm not sure they'd believe it anyway.
The fate of the world lies in the hands of less than 200 people.
Sorry, what?
There's this new thing they just invented. It's called sleep.
-You should try it. -Yeah.
Sleep is for suckers, especially given the stakes.
Well, that's fair.
Eight billion people. It's pretty damn stakes-y.
Yeah, well, that's a tomorrow problem.
Today, I'm just trying to save one life, Cal's.
I thought you said there was nothing more you could do.
Well, I didn't say that there was nothing more I could try.
You really are working here now.
Wow! There's that sharp detective work I keep hearing so much about.
Well, don't get comfortable. I've gotten you demoted before.
Yeah, and I've knocked your ass out before.
-There's that.
Detective Vasquez. Welcome aboard.
I already hate it here.
Well, it's a means to an end.
We're more help to the 828ers inside the belly of the beast.
And this is your cubicle.
I think we can both agree it is adorably tiny compared to mine.
Mm.
And in the top drawer,
you will find a set of nonregulation handcuffs as a welcome gift.
Wow. So we've, uh, graduated to giving each other gifts now?
Does that mean--
They're handcuffs, Vasquez, not my letterman jacket.
No strings attached, remember?
That is the hospital. Eagan's awake.
Text Michaela. Tell her you'll meet there. Get that hot ass out the door.
Hurry back. It's day one. Can't afford to rock the boat.
Staring at the phone won't make the Eagan news come any sooner.
Uh-huh. Fair enough.
Found this box of family photos. Put 'em all around Cal when he wakes up.
You're incredible for setting that area up for him.
That and so many other reasons.
I can still hear her laugh.
Mick.
What idiot downs a double Manhattan, and then gets in a car and drives?
-Don't do that to yourself. Not today. -It's unforgivable.
Mick, you gotta forgive yourself.
Um, this is Jared.
-He wants me to meet him at the hospital. -Okay.
Hey, Dad.
TJ's coming over. He thinks he may be onto something.
Can we work up here?
Yeah. The more people we have looking for that sapphire, the better.
Ben.
Grace?
Grace.
I've missed you, my love.
I… I'm broken without you.
No, Ben.
You're strong.
Please help me.
What do I do for our boy?
I'll tell you.
But you need to bring Eden to me.
What?
I need you to bring her to me.
It will all make sense.
How's he doing?
Sleeping peacefully.
How are you doing?
I, uh, just had a Calling.
It was Grace.
Oh my God.
I think she can help with Cal.
How? What did she say?
She wants me to bring Eden to her. There's only one place I can think of.
Her grave site. Eden has never been there, right?
No, but…
maybe that's what Eden meant when she said she wanted to see her mommy.
-Hm. -But I can't leave him.
I've got Cal, and I'll be able to tell if he gets worse,
even if he tries to hide it.
-All right. I'll get Eden. -Okay.
Oh, fun. Time to play bad cop, bad cop.
Well, hey, last time I saw you,
you'd stolen a sacred object and left us for dead.
So yesterday. Move on, eyebrows.
Do you have any idea where the Omega Sapphire is?
It was taken from me,
along with a chunk of my scalp, by the world's smallest sociopath.
Angelina?
How'd she even find out about it?
Hell if I know.
Do you know where she is?
Boiling a rabbit somewhere?
Where'd you get this?
From Nutjob the Elder, Angelina's mom.
I borrowed it from her car. Check out the first page.
"Behold, I send an angel before thee, to keep thee in the way,
and bring thee into the place which I have prepared."
Angelina thinks Eden's her guardian angel.
Look at this guy. Can almost hear the wheels spinning.
-Yikes. Keep it. It's yours.
Not much of a reader.
Ah, just in time.
Jeter's up to bat.
It's his last game. 2014.
This is next-level bucket listing, man. Thank you.
I don't think I can keep these down.
For tossing at the TV when the other team's up.
This is too much.
No!
Now it's too much.
Hey, guys.
Uh…
Cal, I…
What's up, TJ?
If you get hungry from saving the world,
Zeke's catering lunch.
-And dinner.
Y'all have fun.
Okay. Come on, Jeter.
This is it, Eden.
I know you don't remember your real mom,
but I want you to know how much she loved you.
Please, Grace.
Thank you for bringing her.
Of course.
Ben, I know it's been hard without me. But I need you to do something.
Anything, name it.
I need you to let Eden go back to Angelina.
What?
She's the only mother Eden's ever known.
Eden loves her, Ben.
Grace, Angelina murdered you. I'm not--
Your eyes.
What about them?
The color's wrong. You're not Grace. You're not--
My guardian angel!
Eden! Stay away from her.
Is this what you want? Show Eden who you really are?
You killed her mother. You gonna kill her father in front of her?
You can't keep us apart, Ben.
Eden's my angel. We're supposed to be together.
It's what she wants.
You sure about that?
Given the chance, are you sure Eden would choose you?
I'd bet my life on it.
Then lower the gun, Angelina.
Let Eden decide.
My love, do you wanna stay with Mommy, or you wanna be with the bad man?
Oh, Eden.
Hey, come on, Eden.
You know I'm not a bad man.
I'm just a daddy
who loves his little girl so, so very much.
I love you, Eden. And you love me.
Let her say it.
Eden, who do you wanna be with?
Eden.
-I wanna be with my daddy.
No!
No, Eden.
Don't leave me!
Eden!
Daddy!
Hey. Hey, hey, hey. Hey, man. You all right?
Everything's okay. It's just the two of us,
so we're a bit overprotective of each other.
Sit down, okay?
Hey, man, what was that all about?
I have no idea. But, uh, it was awful.
-Let's go. -Hey, yo!
Hey, man, what are you doing? Where you taking him?
Hey, new guy, maybe you need to read the handbook
because the minute a passenger exhibits particularly onerous or unusual behavior,
we detain 'em.
Pretty sure mind-meld scream counts.
-Daddy, what's happening? -Sit tight. I'll be fine.
It's okay, sweetie. Just… just stay right here. Okay?
Come on. Let's go.
Calls are pouring in from all of the regional offices.
What happened to the passengers just now happened all across the country.
Ah, Dre. Seriously, I'm worried for all of them.
Yeah.
So Angelina used a sapphire to send you a fake Calling?
With the one image she knew I'd do anything for.
I dropped Eden with Dad just in case. I'm gonna fill Saanvi in.
So if she's got the sapphire, what chance does the Lifeboat have?
-No, it's sunk. -Well, not if we find her.
Right? I mean, we can get it back.
We have absolutely no idea where she is.
Be nice if a Calling could help us out with that.
You know what? I think it might have.
-Where'd that come from? -Eagan.
I was reading it when we were talking about Angelina, and I got a Calling.
There was a figure. It had wings, no face.
And it shattered into glass.
How'd you know?
I helped Angelina with the same exact Calling.
She thought the angel was chasing her, trying to tell her something.
I know where she is.
-I'm coming with you. -Zeke, you can barely walk.
What's going on?
I got the 20 on Angelina. I'm gonna go there now.
Dad?
You have to go with her.
Please.
You have to get the sapphire.
I'll stay here with Cal. We have a busy day.
All right. Back before you know it, pal.
-Thanks. -Yep.
All right.
Let's see if what I brought can help Cal.
I can't believe Astoria let you check this out.
Yeah, once the guy verified I was the one who sent it from Egypt, he was fine.
I think his name was Levi. You know him?
Uh, kinda. Back to work.
What do you see between these two?
Um…
-They're identical. -Almost identical.
Okay, eagle eye, school me.
Okay, so in the papyrus,
there's a hole on Maat's chest where the Omega Sapphire should be.
Yeah, that's not good.
That sapphire may help us tip Maat's scales of judgment.
It might be the key to saving humanity.
And maybe even Cal.
So the one clue that we needed from this papyrus is missing. Now what?
Maybe there's something else.
Uh… I… I don't see anything.
What if we're not seeing it because we can't see it?
Okay. School me.
I learned that the Egyptians used pigments that were vibrant blue,
but over time, they faded away.
The only way to see them now would be through an infrared filter.
There might be more to this papyrus, just hidden from view.
I actually may have something that could help.
Vance.
Remember when I said I was concerned
about the Omega Sapphire falling into the wrong hands?
Tell me.
Angelina…
She used it to push a thought from her head into Ben's.
She created a false Calling?
We didn't see that coming.
No, but we should have.
We've been so focused on using sapphire to connect to the divine,
we completely forgot about our connection to each other.
If Angelina has that power,
how will you know if a Calling is real or false from now on?
We won't.
This is bad.
Well, this is worse.
If misusing the Noah's Ark fragment created a volcanic fissure…
What consequences will misusing the Omega Sapphire have on the world?
I'm calling Gupta because we need the help.
Voilà.
Next stop on the Bucket List Express, Le Louvre.
I found an amazing virtual tour. All the masters. No waiting.
We can do something else.
Monopoly?
Like it.
-I haven't played this in ages.
Let's go.
Do you think there might be a way for you to beat the Death Date?
I don't know.
Hey.
That fear you're feeling, I can help you and take it all away.
You taking it on and making it go away are not the same.
Come on. Why else did I come back with this ability?
Why did I come back older?
I'm sure there's a reason.
Problem is,
I'll never live long enough to uncover that reason.
Ah.
A DSLR camera with an infrared filter.
Okay, let's see if it still works.
-Ah!
-Giving me very Euro vibes. -Where'd you even get this?
My mom, actually.
Oh.
She said I had a knack.
Yeah, that was…
that was right before she…
You know what sucks?
How much my mom would've loved your mom.
I can't take any more loss.
You know, just even the thought of the Death Date, and I can't…
-I can't lose Cal. -Hey.
Cal's gonna pull through somehow.
We all will. I know it.
For some reason…
when you say that,
it somehow sounds possible.
So thank you for being here.
There's no place I'd rather be.
This is Angelina's old school.
Olive thinks she's here looking for the angel.
Why are the windows glowing?
Forgive me.
I thought for so long that you were chasing me.
I now realize you chose me.
You wanted me to realize I don't need to find an angel.
I am the angel.
Shh.
Angelina, it's over.
It will be. Soon.
For all of you. God has chosen me.
Whatever power you think you have, you don't.
Are you blind? Look at what I did.
You haven't done anything. This is your punishment.
The Lord would never punish his angel.
You, an angel?
I'm an archangel
sent to bring vengeance upon the evil and to lead the righteous to salvation.
No, you're just a person.
A sad, lost,
lonely person in the Lifeboat awaiting judgment
just like the rest of us!
Read your scripture, Ben!
Since you kept my command to endure patiently,
I will keep you from the trials that will test all who dwell on this earth.
You're warping God's words.
Nobody's endured more than me!
No one? No one? His wife is dead!
And so am I.
You did this to me, Michaela.
No, Evie.
No. No, no, no, no.
Mick. It's not her.
There's no one there. It's… it's Angelina.
She's creating this from things she's heard
or maybe a picture she saw.
I trusted you,
and you killed me.
Vance?
-What is it? -It's Cal's scar sample. It's glowing.
You said that scar tissue tested negative across the board.
It did, but something's changed. I've seen it before.
On Ben's hand. It's sapphire.
See?
Sapphire.
Surrounded by a bunch of dots.
All around the sapphire.
Hold on.
Hmm.
Let's see here.
Sort of a random pattern.
Mm.
Actually…
I don't think it's random at all.
Draco.
Constellation. The Dragon.
It's the same.
You see how the tail,
it touches the scale?
A dragon.
What's up, bud?
Can you see that?
My scar. It's moving.
What the hell?
He was right.
Who?
Henry.
You're a dragon, Cal. Just like me.
I am the Dragon.
Cal?
Did you bring me here? You pulled me into a Calling? How?
You're destroying any chance we have. You have to stop this.
I'm doing what I was chosen to do, Cal.
I won't be manipulated by you again.
What happened?
I think she's in a Calling.
-Please help us!
Oh my God.
Get back. Get back!
Yeah? Go.
Stay there. Stay there.
Come on, come on. All right.
Stay back. I'm warning you.
I'm already dying. There's nothing you can do to me.
-Mom?
How?
It's time to let go now, Cal. Then we can be together.
Come to me, my sweet, sweet boy.
I missed you so much…
but…
I think there's more I'm supposed to do.
No.
No, you've done so much.
Now it's time to rest.
Come.
I'm ready.
Let go.
Cal? Stay with me.
Cal.
Signature, please.
He's all set.
You okay?
I'm so sorry about today.
Thank you.
Ice cream?
Get home safe, guys.
-Thanks. -Yeah.
Hold that thought.
New ball game.
Listen up, folks.
Effective immediately,
we are to detain every passenger on US soil until further notice.
Wait, what?
No. Wait. You can't do this. I'm all he's got.
Child protective services will take care of it.
Daddy! Daddy!
No! Daddy!
I'll be back, okay?
My sweet, sweet boy.
You're so close.
-No need to fight any longer.
Cal?
Cal, what is it?
All those years,
the whole time I was sick,
never once did she tell me to stop fighting.
Listen to your mother.
-This isn't my mother.
Stay back!
Inside, you're just a scared little boy.
Guilty little weakling who couldn't save his own mother.
The little boy is gone. Now you have to deal with me.
No!
Hey, what happened? Cal? Cal, what happened?
The glow is fading.
Why?
I don't know.
The major was right. Cal really is the Holy Grail.
What the hell is that?
Vance?
Put your hands in the air! Now!
Destroy everything.
Vance?
Hands where I can see 'em! Step away from the computer! Now!
Hang in there, bud. Please?
It's time.
-Please get Olive. -Okay.
Call everyone.
Okay.
We have to figure this out. It might save Cal.
Okay. Okay, so a sapphire
inside of a dragon hovering over Maat's scales? Why?
Well, the scales taught us about the Lifeboat.
That all passengers are being judged together.
But if a passenger… well, a dragon,
gets touched by the sapphire, I mean, it could tip the scales,
and all of you could survive,
which means the entire world can survive.
But who's the Dragon?
Cal. Cal can save all of us.
But who can save Cal?
I don't know how I can ever thank you, Cal.
You saved my life in more ways than one.
Don't go.
Please.
I'll always be here for you, with you, okay?
You're my best man.
I'll always be with you.
I need fire and police support to the corner of 82nd and Grant.
Okay. Please hurry.
All right, that's everybody.
There you go.
-I'm going back in for Angelina. -No, it's way too dangerous.
She won't stop until we stop her. It's what your Calling wants.
-That's why we're here. Stay with them. -Ben!
All right.
Hey. I'm right here, okay? Help's on the way, all right?
-Just gonna check you out. -Thank you.
It's gonna be okay.
-No!
There has to be something left.
Get away from me!
Angelina, it's over. The sapphire is shattered. This ends now.
Cal is dying.
I saw him, Ben.
The life is draining from him while you're here trying to get to me.
Poor Cal.
You're lying!
This is the way it has to be.
Hey, what's going on? Is it Cal?
No. No, it's me.
Uh, can it wait till I get home?
I won't be here when you get home.
Hey, Zeke, you're scaring me.
No, don't be scared.
I'm not…
because of you.
We were always meant to be together, Mick.
Zeke, what's going on? Why are you telling me this right now?
I was given a second chance at life, Mick.
I didn't know why, but it was you, Mick.
It was you.
And then in the cave,
that magazine photo of your beautiful face kept me going.
And then when I came back,
I wanted to find you.
I had to.
The first time we touched,
it was like I could feel you in every cell of my body
like you were a part of me.
You're why I came back.
You're my breath and my blood and my soul.
You let me know what it means to be truly alive.
The universe brought us together for a reason, Mick.
It was my second chance
to make up for all the pain and hurt I caused.
And now I finally get to do that.
Zeke, whatever it is you're gonna do, you don't have to do it.
Stop. Okay, just wait till I get home. Just wait… just wait for me, please.
I wish I could.
Zeke, stop. Zeke.
Zeke! Zeke!
-Angelina's gone.
Ben, we gotta go home. We gotta go home right now.
Why?!
When you lost the Omega Sapphire, you put the whole world at risk.
I warned you about playing God.
Cal. Come on, buddy.
No. Hey. Come on. Stay with me. Don't leave me, please. No.
It's okay, my love.
I'll see you again.
Under the stars.
No. No, no.
No! No! No! No, no, no, no, no, no!
