(First i want to tell that i watch the show in english(not my native language) with subtitle so it’s really harder to get all the information and understand everything so please be indulgent )

I overall like the show but there is still some point that i don’t understand.

1. In an episode, stone family get teleport on Al-Zuras ship and they saw the plane 828 in the sky. What was the plane doing here ? I don’t remember if there is an explanation on the show.

2. Was the passagers really know everythinks on the plane ? Because they says calling was memory and in the last episode nothing happen on the divine conscience.

3. Why 5.5 years ? Why those passager exactly ? Why fly 828 ? It’s not really important but is there a signification ?

4. What was the point of all that ? Why those passager got telleport in an another dimension to solve calling ? To show they’re kind and worthy ?

Again i didn’t watch the whole show fully focused so maybe my question is stupide but please stay nice 😅.

If you see some spelling mistake tell me.

I just finished binge watching the show Manifest. Great ending but there are a few unanswered questions.

Like:

1. What happened to the woman that kept Angelina and Eden hidden?
2. Don't air marshals usually hide and blend in with the passengers just in case someone wants to hijack the plane?
3. What about the criminals that came back to life? Do they repeat the crimes they committed and get away with it since the callings are no more?

I'm sure there are others I haven't thought of yet. Please tell me your thoughts.

Obviously the passengers would all prefer the original timeline to the new one, but there’s so many “positive” developments in the alternate timeline that created so much progress that are basically just erased from reality and the memories of anyone who wasn’t a passenger.

Eden, Drea and Jared’s relationship/baby, Michaela and Zeke’s relationship, Drea and Michaela’s friendship, Michaela and Jared’s friendship after their split, TJ and Olive’s relationship, etc. are all just gone. I know that there’s a backdoor setup for some of these things, and that some of the developments simply could never happen (TJ and Olive mainly, but it still hurts how he remembers her but she doesn’t remember him) but there’s just soooo much good of the new timeline that is cut, and it doesn’t even seem like the passengers care all that much.

It would’ve been much harder for Michaela to walk away from Jared, and more or less say “just trust me bro” to convince him of her thought processes, especially when it puts their professional and platonic relationships in limbo as well. She doesn’t know that they’ll remain friends or colleagues. She doesn’t know that she’ll ever get to be partners/friends with Drea. There are plenty of barriers for the passengers (Michaela and Ben in particular) that they lose in the original timeline. And even if some of these instances eventually transpire in a different capacity, their friends/family (Jared, Zeke, Drea, Cal, Olive and Grace) will never know about the alternate timeline that actually made it all possible. I guess I understand why this is, but you can’t tell me it doesn’t suck in a way that none of them will ever know the positive progress made in the alternate timeline. If I was a passenger on that plane it would agonize me that my loved ones could never recall 5 years worth of experiences that we shared together, and could never be told about them without the passenger seeming absolutely insane. Saanvi lucked out with this though, as there is no sacrificed development of hers that is worth mourning. She gets all the glory, unlike Michaela, Ben and TJ.

Something else that I genuinely do not get is how 11 passengers (plus the original PILOT… hello?) turn to ash and everyone else is just able to walk off the plane free of investigation? Is it just me or is that not legitimately MORE suspicious and worthy of investigation than returning years after a disappearance? Maybe I’m just crazy but I do not get how that could ever fly, no pun intended.

What do you think would happen to like the major and griffin?

First time watching, I'm up to season 2 episode 11 I love the show but it's so corny and the acting is so bad at times I can't cope.

This is very inconsequential but... why are they always hugging? It feels like when the writers didn't know how to end a scene, they'd throw "they all hug" in the script and move on. I've never seen a show with so much hugging in my life.

Oh my Gosh she irritates me. Does she ever even die? She has SO MUCH PLOT ARMOUR SHE COULD MAKE A WHOLE MEDIEVAL ARMY INVINCIBLE 😭

"God wouldn't punish one of his angels?"

Who in the Theology Department approved this? She's supposed to be learned in the Bible...
