Manifest (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Episode #1.10 - full transcript
Previously on "Manifest"...
You've all been missing,
presumed dead, for 5 1/2 years.
Who is she?
Lourdes.
The government didn't release
all the passengers.
I think they're experimenting
on these people,
and Cal is somehow channeling
what they're going through.
I still feel them.
I found a remote property.
I'm going to take them there.
They'll be safe with me.
Just get him to trust you.
Be specific, but nothing useful.
Olive's not my kid. But I
stepped in when you were gone.
When she comes to me,
I-I can't turn her away.
I thought that we
could just start over
right where we left off.
I don't know you.
I don't think
this is right anymore.
Find out why
he's looking into us,
what he knows,
and who he's working with.
Is that perfectly clear?
Yeah.
I miss you so much, Mom.
Everything has been such a mess
since we got back.
It was supposed to be
happily ever after.
But after 5 1/2 years, you can't
just pick up where you left off.
Everyone moved on.
Except us.
So now we start over.
The government thinks
we're criminals.
Other people think
we're angels, or saints...
Or guinea pigs
to be experimented on.
Innocent people
are getting hurt.
Jared almost died.
What kind of cop am I
if I can't protect
the people that I love?
What kind of person am I...
if I love a man
who can't love me back?
"All good things."
What I would do to hear you
say that one more time.
I wouldn't say I don't believe.
I would say that I want to.
Because there has
got to be a reason
this is happening to us.
I don't know what it is.
But I know one thing.
I want my life back.
Help! Help! Help!

- What's wrong?
- They all jerked.
All at the same time.
Like fingers in a light socket.
It was freaky.
Are you sure?
Um, yeah.
Like that.
Could be a reflex.
It could be, uh, residual brain
trauma from the experiments.
But all at once?
It... It's like
they're still connected.
We need to bring
the passengers together.
Analyze their experiences.
And warn them.
191 passengers?
At least the ones that
were drawn to the airport
when the plane exploded.
Do you think they'll cooperate?
I mean, if seeing what happened
to their fellow passengers
doesn't convince people
to stick together...
These were
the low-hanging fruit.
Any single one of us
could be next.
Whoa! Hey!
This is my apartment, remember?
If anyone has dibs
to trash it, it's me.
There's got to be an answer
here. I just don't see it.
I'm sorry.
Where'd you go?
I went to go see Mom.
I gave her quite the earful.
She was always
the best listener.
Did it help?
It felt good to be there.
To do something.
Yeah. Tell me about it.
I'm going out of my mind here.
All I want to do is protect
Grace and the kids,
and now I can't even
be with them.
Grace is gonna take you back.
If I can just put this to bed,
life goes back to normal.
It has been 10 days.
No callings.
Maybe it's over.
Maybe the lab explosion
reset everything.
You really believe that?
I want to, yeah.
It's better than
letting it drive me crazy.
Meaning what I'm doing?
You said it, not me.
- Hey, where are you going?
- It's Vance's memorial today.
What, you think it's
a good idea to go to that?
I'll keep a low profile.
And I got to pay my respects.
He died helping us.
And?
And maybe I'll get a lead.
Come on. Isn't it Cop 101... go
to the murder victim's funeral,
look for a guilty killer?
Not quite like that.
And you're not a cop.
No, but I'm a dad,
and I've got to protect my son.
Cal channeled Marko.
Cal found the detainees
under that warehouse.
My kid is at the center
of everything happening to us.
I've got to know why.
It just...
It just might save his life.
You almost died.
You could take another week off.
I feel great.
As in great great?
Pretty damn good.
Well, I know another way that
we can beat the boredom.
And it doesn't involve
going to work.
Hmm.
And not to kill the mood,
but I'm ovulating.
Or not.
Look, after everything
I went through, I just...
I just need a beat, okay,
just to get my bearings back.
- That's it.
- Mm, babe, I get it.
No pressure. We got
all the time in the world.
- Mm.
- Thank you.
Frozen waffles.
This is bad.
They still taste good.
She's in a dark place.
She misses Dad.
Don't you?
Of course.
Here you go.
A little bit crispy,
but nothing some extra
maple syrup won't hide.
Thanks, Mom.
Yeah, I've got to go.
I have this, like,
study thing before school.
- See ya.
- Oh.
Why can't Dad come home?
He just needs some time
to take care of some things.
And we agreed that
it'd be best to do them
while he was living
with your Auntie Mick.
Don't eat that.
How about smoothies
on the way to school?
Sure.
An esteemed NSA Deputy Director,
a man of honor and dignity,
Robert Vance died as he lived...
In service of our great country,
uncovering a domestic terror
cell's bomb-making operation
in Red Hook.
Our heartfelt condolences to
Estelle and the Vance children,
as well as Bobby's friends.
Bobby wasn't
a particularly social man,
eschewing small talk,
but anyone who knew him
saw that the loyalty
he showed this country
could only be matched
by his devotion to his friends
and especially family.
Bobby's father
fought and died in Vietnam.
When I met Bobby,
the first story he told me
was of his devoted mother...
You have some nerve
showing up here.
You got him killed.
Look, I don't know
what you think...
Show some respect and leave.
Hey.
Ben Stone, right?
Don't tell me you believe
that story about mad bombers.
We both know it's not true.
I'm Aaron Glover.
I'm a journalist.
My podcast is "828-Gate."
Podcast.
That's still a thing?
Yeah, it's very much a thing.
You should have a listen.
Nope. No comment.
You can't stop me from reporting
that I saw you here.
And having a moment
with Agent Powell.
You seem to be pretty cozy
with the NSA.
My listeners
are gonna wonder why.
Say what you want
about the government.
But I'm a private citizen.
Keep me out of your story.
You are the story.
Look, I don't know you,
I don't know your podcast,
but you're wasting your time.
I've got nothing for you.
Maybe I have something for you.
Why did a chopper
drop off the Major
at that factory in Red Hook
an hour before
the whole thing goes boom?
Major who?
I don't know, but whoever it was
is still out there.
Still a threat.
What can you do about it?
You need allies,
and I can deliver them.
Just give me a statement.
What, and blow up my life
to launch your career?
No, thanks.
You know...
check out the podcast.
You'll see...
I want to do this right.
Did you reach all 20?
18, minus Harvey and Kelly.
Uh, most of them can make it.
Thanks for getting here
so quickly.
Ben's right behind me.
I recognize this guy
from the airport.
Yeah. Paul Santino.
He's a local.
His wife was a no-show
at the hangar.
Abandoned.
You and me both, buddy.
Find her.
Are you okay? Michaela?
Did you just have a calling?
Yeah, but that was not
like the other ones.
I was transported to a blizzard,
and I heard, "Find her."
What did you do to him?
I don't know.
Yeah, I don't... I don't...
I don't understand.
What... What is this place?
Who are you people?
Do you remember a plane?
- Do you know what year it is?
- What happened to me?
That's what we're trying
to figure out.
What is the last thing
that you remember, Paul?
Is that my name?
Paul Santino.
You have a wife... Helen.
I'm married?
That, uh...
That doesn't...
Doesn't feel right.
Are you sure?
You know what?
I'll double-check.
Sounds like complete amnesia.
Probably happened with
the electro-shock tests.
Can we try to see if you
can wake up another one?
I'm not magic, Saanvi.
I know.
I have been trying
around the clock to help them.
Nothing is working.
I would be crazy not to try.
Hey, Marko.
Marko?
See? I am not magic.
Could be a coincidence.
Or neuroplasticity.
Their catatonia
could be the body's way
of forcing the brain to rest
and rebuild neural pathways.
Heal themselves.
You're the doctor.
Okay, so I should be able to do
more than just keep them alive.
Maybe that is exactly what
you are supposed to be doing...
Giving them time to heal.
They will wake up
when they're ready.
Or when they're called.
You have to find her.
Paul's wife... Helen.
Maybe. I've been wrong
about the callings before.
You two share the same story.
His wife didn't show up
to the hangar.
Neither did Jared.
Maybe you two are connected.
I don't know.
There's got to be a reason
why he woke up just now,
even if we can't see it.
It's like the boy
with Evie's heart.
I think you're
supposed to help Paul.
Everywhere I go,
those crazy cult people
are watching me.
They were waiting for me
outside the court
the minute I made bail!
Has anyone else had contact
with the Believers?
Finally someone taking charge.
Maybe you can help me
get my life back, too.
I went from entrepreneur
wunderkind to out on my ass.
Hang on, Adrian. We're all
on the same side here.
Now, you all showed up
when the plane exploded,
so we know you've had strange
experiences since we landed.
Has anyone had one
in the last 10 days?
- A vision, maybe?
- You know something we don't.
Today something
happened to me. I...
It was like I was transported
into a snowstorm.
- Okay. What does that mean?
- We don't know.
But what we are sure of is that
we have to share information.
But what good will that do?
It might just save your lives.
As some of you know,
I study shared consciousness,
like the callings
you've all experienced.
I don't think it was an accident
I was on that flight with you.
I think I was there
to be an interpreter.
You're all welcome here.
A friend of mine lent me the use
of this place until the spring.
She studies
"shared consciousness"
and just happens to be on the plane?
Coincidences happen.
So do conspiracies.
Think about it.
What if this whole thing is
her twisted science experiment?
She's been a help to us.
Well, sure she has.
She's trying to get you
to trust her.
It has to stop.
Things can't fall into the wrong hands.
Things? Captain, if you know
something that can help...
Maybe I do, and maybe I don't.
But whatever's going on,
I'm gonna figure it out alone.
You don't have to. Let me...
Look, you weren't in that cockpit.
No one's blaming you for
what happened to MA 828.
You can't help me.
Coming here was a waste of time.
Sorry.
I wasn't eavesdropping.
I mean, I was,
but he seemed so aggro.
Yeah, at the farm,
do you remember
ever coming across
someone called the Major?
Is that a yes?
I-I overheard them on speakerphone
talking to someone they called Major.
Laurence was scared,
like the way you are
with someone who's
way more powerful than you are.
He was apologetic,
asking for more money.
The Major said
money wasn't a problem.
"The Holy Grail is priceless."
Holy Grail?
I remember 'cause it was
a weird thing to say.
No clue what it meant.
Ah.
Whatever the Major's
looking for, she wants it. Bad.
She?
Michaela's calling.
"Find her."
Are you positive
the Major is a woman?
Yeah.
That a big deal?
It just might be.
Thank you.
Where'd you go?
You're not dead.
You're not in jail.
Come on. You got to be
out there somewhere.
Right here, actually.
Not me you were looking for?
I didn't expect you
to be back to work so soon.
You know, you could've milked
the "almost died" thing
for way more sick days.
Doc gave me the green light.
And, uh, I wanted to talk to you.
Later, okay? I'm hot on
this missing-persons thing.
It's the wife of one of the detainees.
Riojas signed off
on me investigating it.
Okay.
Bring me up to speed.
Uh, he's an attorney,
serious money.
Looks like she lost everything after 828.
Last known address that we have
is some crappy street
in Astoria.
- Social media?
- Zero presence.
She didn't come to the hangar.
I mean, everything that I found
suggests a loving couple.
So... why didn't she show?
You think something happened to her.
I don't know what to think.
She... vanished.
Let's go find her.
Surprise.
Now, there's a face I've missed.
Same.
How about I cancel my bike ride
and we can hit the climbing gym?
One step closer to Acadia.
Or you could come see us.
Olive, I-I'd love that,
but it's really up to your mom.
She's not gonna ask.
I can tell she misses you,
but it's like
she's punishing herself.
Give her time to process.
Well, it's like
they died all over again.
She's barely smiling.
She's not eating.
Seeing her like that messed me
up more than the plane,
and I can't do it again.
And I don't want you to.
Then if you still love us...
help me help her.
Please.
During the 5 1/2 years
the plane was missing,
the flight path,
weather pattens,
and telemetry
have been exhaustively studied.
The NTSB report took 18 months.
And it's full of holes.
But I'm not giving up.
I'll find the truth.
Oh... hi.
Hi.
I thought I had them today.
Uh, Cal asked me to come.
I figured he told you.
Oh. No.
Dad!
Hey, buddy.
How was school?
Good. Uh, come on.
I've been working on my shot.
Almost.
Use your legs.
Why won't Mom let you come home?
Mom's not keeping me away,
buddy.
There's just things
I got to take care of.
Things to keep us all safe.
I know. But why can't you
do any of that here?
I wish I could, buddy.
Hey.
Mom and I both love you a ton.
Two tons.
Two tons of love weighs the same
as two tons of rocks.
So basically,
you're crushing me.
You want to crush this ball?
- Yeah.
- Crush it. Crush it!
I'm Aaron Glover,
and that's all for this week's
episode of "828-Gate,"
but you don't want to miss
next week's episode,
"Chapter Six: Closing in on the Holy Grail."
Next week's episode,
"Chapter Six: Closing in on the Holy Grail."
Glad you decided to trust me.
I haven't... yet.
But answer my questions,
and I might.
What did you mean by "The Holy Grail"?
Just something
a confidential source said.
Not good enough.
I won't name names.
Right after 828 returned,
Senate Intelligence Committee,
House Appropriations started
having secret meetings.
In which they earmarked millions
to preserve the phantom shiner.
It's a fish.
Hasn't been seen since the 1940s,
so why earmark funds?
To pay for
a clandestine operation.
Look at you.
But all my source had was a fragment
of a conversation he overheard.
A senator said,
"It's the Holy Grail.
We have to be the first,
or 828 blows up in our face."
The Holy Grail?
You think that's what
the Major's looking for?
No, not literally.
This isn't Arthurian legend.
But it's something big.
It's time to go on the record.
Not yet.
We're still on background.
But I will tell you this...
The Major on that chopper
was a woman.
- What's her name?
- Don't know yet.
The chopper could lead us to it.
I'm assuming you traced it.
My source told me it was
a military Black Hawk.
We need Intel access.
CIA, NSA.
Powell.
Vance's deputy.
- Can you trust him?
- Oh, hardly.
But I trust his loyalty
to Vance.
The thing is, I'll never get
through the NSA's front door.
But your sources could find me
a side entrance.
That's not a good sign.
Hello? NYPD.
Newspapers, mail.
This isn't looking like
a planned vacation.
I do not want to know what it
looks like inside that carton.
November 6th.
That's two days after 828 returned.
Causing her to leave in a hurry?
Yeah, or taken.
Maybe the same people
who took Paul took Helen.
I have to find her.
You had a calling, didn't you?
When? What was it?
Are you reading my mind now?
I know you, Mick.
I need to go back to the
beach house and see Paul again.
Try and jog his memory.
Maybe he remembers
relatives or friends
who might be able to help.
Yeah. Okay. Let's go.
Why don't you stay here
and search the place?
Maybe start with the mail.
Are you trying to ditch me now?
Paul's delicate.
It's better if I go it alone.
I don't recognize her.
How can I not remember
my own wife?
What happened to me?
I just want my life back.
Believe me, I know.
Listen, we're gonna find her, okay?
And I'm sure once you see her,
it'll all come back.
Find her.
Find her.
It just happened again.
Yeah. But these callings
are so different, Ben.
I thought it was about the words,
but the blizzard, the wind, it just...
it feels more vital.
Like it's not just about finding Helen.
I don't know
what the snow means,
but this mystery Major is a woman.
And we definitely need to find her.
Maybe Paul's wife
isn't who we're after.
Okay. Until we know
what's going on,
I think we should look for both.
- Hey.
- Hey, guys.
I got your message.
What's up?
Uh, this is gonna sound crazy.
I think our operational baseline
is 10 points up from crazy.
Well, this is gonna turn it up to 11.
Two sources told me
that the Major
is looking for the Holy Grail.
- Right.
- Yeah, I didn't think so either.
But she's used the phrase twice,
so it's got to be code
for something specific.
What is she chasing?
Same thing we are.
Answers.
To what's happened,
what's causing the callings,
how to control them.
I'll go through the lab notes.
Maybe I missed something.
Yeah.
Hey, I got to run.
Jared's got a lead that might
get us to Paul's wife.
And I got a lead on Powell.
What do you want from him?
The Major, the Holy Grail.
Where to begin?
The last charge
on Helen's credit card
was an Uber ride to here.
Clerk ID'd her photo.
Said she was in room 28.
Checked in alone.
So not a kidnapping.
More like she's hiding. Why?
Helen Santino?
NYPD.
Your husband, Paul, sent us.
Gun!
Oh, God. Please don't kill me.
Please don't kill me.
I'm sorry.
I didn't believe you were cops.
I thought Paul sent you to kill me.
Why would he want to kill you?
He came close a couple times.
Before.
He was abusive.
Not at first.
But after we were married,
it started.
Said if I'd been a better wife,
everything would've been easier.
And I tried. But I could
never be good enough.
None of this is your fault.
I know that now.
Years of therapy,
after he was gone.
When the plane disappeared.
Answered prayers.
When I found out
the plane was back...
The Paul you knew
wouldn't have been happy.
What do you mean
"the Paul I knew"?
What's going on?
Something happened.
Paul lost his memory.
So he's not coming?
You won't tell him where I am?
Helen, it's over.
You're safe. Okay?
When I got the news about 828,
I thought I'd never
be happy again.
Paul coming back was like
this wrecking ball
smashing into everything I'd built.
Hate to ruin your party of one.
Get the hell out of here, Stone.
I get it...
you blame me for Vance's death.
But I didn't get your boss killed.
Give me five minutes,
and you'll know who did.
One minute.
The Major.
That supposed to mean something to me?
It's who Vance thought
he was up against.
She's the head of
a covert military operation,
one that's circumventing
the intelligence community.
Deep pockets, no accountability.
You're not helping your case, Stone.
I thought you said
you had a name.
I don't.
But you can get one.
Trace a Black Hawk,
based out of D.C.
Flew into Red Hook
an hour before the explosion.
The Major, whoever she is,
was on board.
And she was looking for something
she calls the Holy Grail.
I need to understand all this, Powell.
It affects the safety of all
the passengers, of my family.
Please help me.
Your one minute's up.
Whatever you're into,
I want no part of it.
If you're smart,
you'll walk away, too.
No. Vance didn't. He believed
that no one is above the law.
He wanted to help me expose
the truth, wherever it led.
Like I said...
You got him killed.
No, not me. The Major.
And you have a chance to ID her.
Ask yourself... what would
Vance want you to do?
Hey!
Hey, what's up with you?
I don't want to talk about it.
Clearly. You didn't say a word
to me the whole way back.
What's going on?
Why didn't you come to the
hangar when the plane came back?
I'll tell you why...
Because I am a giant wrecking
ball smashing into your life.
- Mick.
- Let's not sugarcoat this, Jay.
We owe each other that.
I'm gonna tell the Captain
that I don't want to work
with you anymore.
- What? No.
- You found happiness, Jared.
You deserve it.
I am not blowing that up.
Hey. He's one of them!
It's Adrian.
Excuse me.
Can we touch you?
Please.
Trust me... this is gonna work.
I totally killed cooking dinner.
I don't think that the quality of
the food is gonna be the issue.
Please, me following
in her culinary footsteps
is just the warm-up.
Tonight is gonna be something
that everybody needs.
Did I hear the doorbell?
Hi.
Danny.
Um... this is
not a good time.
No, no.
It's all good, okay?
I invited him over.
Just for dinner.
I made meatloaf.
Olive.
Grace, she's worried about you.
I am too.
No. We're not having
this conversation.
Not now.
Not in front of her.
I think you should go.
- I don't want him to go.
- Olive, this is a family matter.
What the hell, Mom?!
Danny is family!
Olive!
- Did you find her?
- Yeah.
Where is she?
Can I see her?
No. You can't.
I don't understand.
You know, I thought we were
the same, you and me.
Coming back, being alone.
I felt sorry for you, for me.
But we are not the victims.
We do not get to come crashing into
their lives, wrecking their happiness.
What? Why would...
Why would I...
You seriously don't remember, Paul?
Mick. What's wrong?
Or maybe you don't want to
remember what a monster you are.
You beat your wife.
No.
- Michaela.
- You're wrong. I would ne...
- I just want my life back.
- Stop saying that!
- You do not deserve it!
- No, Michaela, stop!
You do not deserve a damn thing!
Stop it! Geez.
Hey. I got your text.
What's wrong?
You are not a grown-up, Olive.
- Mom and Olive?
- You're not acting like one.
Olive, you can't talk
to your mother like that.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
I-I was invited.
Really? 'Cause it doesn't
look like a happy reunion.
- Ben, it's fine.
- It's not.
I am not dead anymore.
I am right here.
And why does he get to be
in my house with my children?
You are the whole reason
this family is messed up.
I'm trying to pick up
the pieces.
- Ben!
- Stop!
All right?
I invited him!
It's my fault.
No, no, this is not your fault.
This is not your fault.
From the moment
that plane landed,
you wanted to walk back
into this family
like no time had passed.
And I get that,
because for you, it hadn't.
And you wanted the family
that we had built.
And I don't know what I want.
But no matter what I do, I'm the
bad guy, and I'm tired of it.
So we're not doing this.
I understand.
I-I'll leave.
No, no, no. I'll...
I'm sorry. I never really
understood until now.
I only thought about
how much you got back,
not... not what you lost.
Olive wants you here.
No. Dad.
It's okay, Ollie.
I'm okay.
You know you're safe here,
buddy, right?
Come here.
I love you guys so much.
Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
Promise.
Jared, no. You shouldn't
be here right now.
Stop.
Stop telling me what to do.
Or how I'm supposed to feel, Mick.
Look, you asked me why
I didn't go to the hangar.
I didn't go because
I knew if I saw you,
I would've never gone home.
Mick, you're not
a wrecking ball.
You're my soul mate.
No, Jared, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
I still wake up expecting
to find you next to me.
Mick, I still look at you,
and the rest of the world
just goes away.
I love you.
It's always been you.
I didn't cheat death
to live a half a life.
Neither did you.
Ugh.
Yeah?
I found the Black Hawk.
It went wheels up at Langley
10 minutes ago on red alert.
It's a VIP transpo,
assigned for someone's personal use.
It's got to be the Major.
You get a name?
Classified.
If they were at Red Hook,
they're likely behind the
explosion that killed my boss.
You asked me
what Vance would do.
He'd want me to help you.
Thank you.
Just watch your six.
The Black Hawk filed a flight plan...
New York City.
Whoever the Major is,
she's comin'.
I don't know her name.
But she knows me and my family.
And it looks like
she's after us.
All we did was get on a plane.
And because of that, our lives
have never been the same.
Everyone on that flight
got a second chance.
But it came at a high price.
And now there's a new danger facing us.
I don't know what Holy Grail
the Major is closing in on.
But I do know this...
I will not let my family be
collateral damage in her quest.
The way you worked in the tag...
Brilliant.
My subscribers are gonna
go through the roof.
You can't release it.
Are you crazy?
We've got to go after the Major.
Figure out who she is,
who she's working for.
Prove the government
is lying to us.
This is a huge scoop.
People need to know.
Do it, follow the trail.
It just can't go public.
Yet.
Then why did you come to me?
I'm your insurance policy.
If this ends badly,
blow the lid.
And if it doesn't end badly?
Then you've got a Deep Throat.
Be patient.
Who knows how high this all goes.
Danny...
You don't need to say anything.
If you're ready,
when you're ready...
Next week, next month,
next year...
Just say the word.
Then we should move the people
to a-a nursing home
- under false names.
- No.
Paul's awakening gave us an
insight into their catatonia.
They were harmed in
service of my theories.
Now we may be close to a cure.
I will not abandon them
when there's still hope.
Then we need to find a way
to keep you all safe.
Find her.
Find her.
Find her.
Hey.
The calling again?
"Find her"?
You found Helen.
Now it must be telling you
to find the Major.
I don't think
we're supposed to find anyone.
I think I'm having
someone else's calling.
What do you mean?
The voice in my head.
It's not mine.
What the hell's going on?
Here you go.
Um, can I squeeze by?
Autumn.
What a lovely name.
Your name.
It's on the cup.
Sorry. I didn't mean
to freak on you.
It's just been a weird day.
I understand.
And I think perhaps
you lost your phone?
No, that's not...
mine.
It is now.
The Major would like a word.
I think I found
the Major's Holy Grail.
What? What is it?
No, it's not a what.
It's a who.
These failed experiments
weren't all a complete failure.
The trial was tracking
relative success.
They found that some
of the passengers
are more sensitive to the callings.
Cal.
If the Major finds out
what he can do...
We got to make sure
she never does.
Find her.
You've all been missing,
presumed dead, for 5 1/2 years.
Who is she?
Lourdes.
The government didn't release
all the passengers.
I think they're experimenting
on these people,
and Cal is somehow channeling
what they're going through.
I still feel them.
I found a remote property.
I'm going to take them there.
They'll be safe with me.
Just get him to trust you.
Be specific, but nothing useful.
Olive's not my kid. But I
stepped in when you were gone.
When she comes to me,
I-I can't turn her away.
I thought that we
could just start over
right where we left off.
I don't know you.
I don't think
this is right anymore.
Find out why
he's looking into us,
what he knows,
and who he's working with.
Is that perfectly clear?
Yeah.
I miss you so much, Mom.
Everything has been such a mess
since we got back.
It was supposed to be
happily ever after.
But after 5 1/2 years, you can't
just pick up where you left off.
Everyone moved on.
Except us.
So now we start over.
The government thinks
we're criminals.
Other people think
we're angels, or saints...
Or guinea pigs
to be experimented on.
Innocent people
are getting hurt.
Jared almost died.
What kind of cop am I
if I can't protect
the people that I love?
What kind of person am I...
if I love a man
who can't love me back?
"All good things."
What I would do to hear you
say that one more time.
I wouldn't say I don't believe.
I would say that I want to.
Because there has
got to be a reason
this is happening to us.
I don't know what it is.
But I know one thing.
I want my life back.
Help! Help! Help!

- What's wrong?
- They all jerked.
All at the same time.
Like fingers in a light socket.
It was freaky.
Are you sure?
Um, yeah.
Like that.
Could be a reflex.
It could be, uh, residual brain
trauma from the experiments.
But all at once?
It... It's like
they're still connected.
We need to bring
the passengers together.
Analyze their experiences.
And warn them.
191 passengers?
At least the ones that
were drawn to the airport
when the plane exploded.
Do you think they'll cooperate?
I mean, if seeing what happened
to their fellow passengers
doesn't convince people
to stick together...
These were
the low-hanging fruit.
Any single one of us
could be next.
Whoa! Hey!
This is my apartment, remember?
If anyone has dibs
to trash it, it's me.
There's got to be an answer
here. I just don't see it.
I'm sorry.
Where'd you go?
I went to go see Mom.
I gave her quite the earful.
She was always
the best listener.
Did it help?
It felt good to be there.
To do something.
Yeah. Tell me about it.
I'm going out of my mind here.
All I want to do is protect
Grace and the kids,
and now I can't even
be with them.
Grace is gonna take you back.
If I can just put this to bed,
life goes back to normal.
It has been 10 days.
No callings.
Maybe it's over.
Maybe the lab explosion
reset everything.
You really believe that?
I want to, yeah.
It's better than
letting it drive me crazy.
Meaning what I'm doing?
You said it, not me.
- Hey, where are you going?
- It's Vance's memorial today.
What, you think it's
a good idea to go to that?
I'll keep a low profile.
And I got to pay my respects.
He died helping us.
And?
And maybe I'll get a lead.
Come on. Isn't it Cop 101... go
to the murder victim's funeral,
look for a guilty killer?
Not quite like that.
And you're not a cop.
No, but I'm a dad,
and I've got to protect my son.
Cal channeled Marko.
Cal found the detainees
under that warehouse.
My kid is at the center
of everything happening to us.
I've got to know why.
It just...
It just might save his life.
You almost died.
You could take another week off.
I feel great.
As in great great?
Pretty damn good.
Well, I know another way that
we can beat the boredom.
And it doesn't involve
going to work.
Hmm.
And not to kill the mood,
but I'm ovulating.
Or not.
Look, after everything
I went through, I just...
I just need a beat, okay,
just to get my bearings back.
- That's it.
- Mm, babe, I get it.
No pressure. We got
all the time in the world.
- Mm.
- Thank you.
Frozen waffles.
This is bad.
They still taste good.
She's in a dark place.
She misses Dad.
Don't you?
Of course.
Here you go.
A little bit crispy,
but nothing some extra
maple syrup won't hide.
Thanks, Mom.
Yeah, I've got to go.
I have this, like,
study thing before school.
- See ya.
- Oh.
Why can't Dad come home?
He just needs some time
to take care of some things.
And we agreed that
it'd be best to do them
while he was living
with your Auntie Mick.
Don't eat that.
How about smoothies
on the way to school?
Sure.
An esteemed NSA Deputy Director,
a man of honor and dignity,
Robert Vance died as he lived...
In service of our great country,
uncovering a domestic terror
cell's bomb-making operation
in Red Hook.
Our heartfelt condolences to
Estelle and the Vance children,
as well as Bobby's friends.
Bobby wasn't
a particularly social man,
eschewing small talk,
but anyone who knew him
saw that the loyalty
he showed this country
could only be matched
by his devotion to his friends
and especially family.
Bobby's father
fought and died in Vietnam.
When I met Bobby,
the first story he told me
was of his devoted mother...
You have some nerve
showing up here.
You got him killed.
Look, I don't know
what you think...
Show some respect and leave.
Hey.
Ben Stone, right?
Don't tell me you believe
that story about mad bombers.
We both know it's not true.
I'm Aaron Glover.
I'm a journalist.
My podcast is "828-Gate."
Podcast.
That's still a thing?
Yeah, it's very much a thing.
You should have a listen.
Nope. No comment.
You can't stop me from reporting
that I saw you here.
And having a moment
with Agent Powell.
You seem to be pretty cozy
with the NSA.
My listeners
are gonna wonder why.
Say what you want
about the government.
But I'm a private citizen.
Keep me out of your story.
You are the story.
Look, I don't know you,
I don't know your podcast,
but you're wasting your time.
I've got nothing for you.
Maybe I have something for you.
Why did a chopper
drop off the Major
at that factory in Red Hook
an hour before
the whole thing goes boom?
Major who?
I don't know, but whoever it was
is still out there.
Still a threat.
What can you do about it?
You need allies,
and I can deliver them.
Just give me a statement.
What, and blow up my life
to launch your career?
No, thanks.
You know...
check out the podcast.
You'll see...
I want to do this right.
Did you reach all 20?
18, minus Harvey and Kelly.
Uh, most of them can make it.
Thanks for getting here
so quickly.
Ben's right behind me.
I recognize this guy
from the airport.
Yeah. Paul Santino.
He's a local.
His wife was a no-show
at the hangar.
Abandoned.
You and me both, buddy.
Find her.
Are you okay? Michaela?
Did you just have a calling?
Yeah, but that was not
like the other ones.
I was transported to a blizzard,
and I heard, "Find her."
What did you do to him?
I don't know.
Yeah, I don't... I don't...
I don't understand.
What... What is this place?
Who are you people?
Do you remember a plane?
- Do you know what year it is?
- What happened to me?
That's what we're trying
to figure out.
What is the last thing
that you remember, Paul?
Is that my name?
Paul Santino.
You have a wife... Helen.
I'm married?
That, uh...
That doesn't...
Doesn't feel right.
Are you sure?
You know what?
I'll double-check.
Sounds like complete amnesia.
Probably happened with
the electro-shock tests.
Can we try to see if you
can wake up another one?
I'm not magic, Saanvi.
I know.
I have been trying
around the clock to help them.
Nothing is working.
I would be crazy not to try.
Hey, Marko.
Marko?
See? I am not magic.
Could be a coincidence.
Or neuroplasticity.
Their catatonia
could be the body's way
of forcing the brain to rest
and rebuild neural pathways.
Heal themselves.
You're the doctor.
Okay, so I should be able to do
more than just keep them alive.
Maybe that is exactly what
you are supposed to be doing...
Giving them time to heal.
They will wake up
when they're ready.
Or when they're called.
You have to find her.
Paul's wife... Helen.
Maybe. I've been wrong
about the callings before.
You two share the same story.
His wife didn't show up
to the hangar.
Neither did Jared.
Maybe you two are connected.
I don't know.
There's got to be a reason
why he woke up just now,
even if we can't see it.
It's like the boy
with Evie's heart.
I think you're
supposed to help Paul.
Everywhere I go,
those crazy cult people
are watching me.
They were waiting for me
outside the court
the minute I made bail!
Has anyone else had contact
with the Believers?
Finally someone taking charge.
Maybe you can help me
get my life back, too.
I went from entrepreneur
wunderkind to out on my ass.
Hang on, Adrian. We're all
on the same side here.
Now, you all showed up
when the plane exploded,
so we know you've had strange
experiences since we landed.
Has anyone had one
in the last 10 days?
- A vision, maybe?
- You know something we don't.
Today something
happened to me. I...
It was like I was transported
into a snowstorm.
- Okay. What does that mean?
- We don't know.
But what we are sure of is that
we have to share information.
But what good will that do?
It might just save your lives.
As some of you know,
I study shared consciousness,
like the callings
you've all experienced.
I don't think it was an accident
I was on that flight with you.
I think I was there
to be an interpreter.
You're all welcome here.
A friend of mine lent me the use
of this place until the spring.
She studies
"shared consciousness"
and just happens to be on the plane?
Coincidences happen.
So do conspiracies.
Think about it.
What if this whole thing is
her twisted science experiment?
She's been a help to us.
Well, sure she has.
She's trying to get you
to trust her.
It has to stop.
Things can't fall into the wrong hands.
Things? Captain, if you know
something that can help...
Maybe I do, and maybe I don't.
But whatever's going on,
I'm gonna figure it out alone.
You don't have to. Let me...
Look, you weren't in that cockpit.
No one's blaming you for
what happened to MA 828.
You can't help me.
Coming here was a waste of time.
Sorry.
I wasn't eavesdropping.
I mean, I was,
but he seemed so aggro.
Yeah, at the farm,
do you remember
ever coming across
someone called the Major?
Is that a yes?
I-I overheard them on speakerphone
talking to someone they called Major.
Laurence was scared,
like the way you are
with someone who's
way more powerful than you are.
He was apologetic,
asking for more money.
The Major said
money wasn't a problem.
"The Holy Grail is priceless."
Holy Grail?
I remember 'cause it was
a weird thing to say.
No clue what it meant.
Ah.
Whatever the Major's
looking for, she wants it. Bad.
She?
Michaela's calling.
"Find her."
Are you positive
the Major is a woman?
Yeah.
That a big deal?
It just might be.
Thank you.
Where'd you go?
You're not dead.
You're not in jail.
Come on. You got to be
out there somewhere.
Right here, actually.
Not me you were looking for?
I didn't expect you
to be back to work so soon.
You know, you could've milked
the "almost died" thing
for way more sick days.
Doc gave me the green light.
And, uh, I wanted to talk to you.
Later, okay? I'm hot on
this missing-persons thing.
It's the wife of one of the detainees.
Riojas signed off
on me investigating it.
Okay.
Bring me up to speed.
Uh, he's an attorney,
serious money.
Looks like she lost everything after 828.
Last known address that we have
is some crappy street
in Astoria.
- Social media?
- Zero presence.
She didn't come to the hangar.
I mean, everything that I found
suggests a loving couple.
So... why didn't she show?
You think something happened to her.
I don't know what to think.
She... vanished.
Let's go find her.
Surprise.
Now, there's a face I've missed.
Same.
How about I cancel my bike ride
and we can hit the climbing gym?
One step closer to Acadia.
Or you could come see us.
Olive, I-I'd love that,
but it's really up to your mom.
She's not gonna ask.
I can tell she misses you,
but it's like
she's punishing herself.
Give her time to process.
Well, it's like
they died all over again.
She's barely smiling.
She's not eating.
Seeing her like that messed me
up more than the plane,
and I can't do it again.
And I don't want you to.
Then if you still love us...
help me help her.
Please.
During the 5 1/2 years
the plane was missing,
the flight path,
weather pattens,
and telemetry
have been exhaustively studied.
The NTSB report took 18 months.
And it's full of holes.
But I'm not giving up.
I'll find the truth.
Oh... hi.
Hi.
I thought I had them today.
Uh, Cal asked me to come.
I figured he told you.
Oh. No.
Dad!
Hey, buddy.
How was school?
Good. Uh, come on.
I've been working on my shot.
Almost.
Use your legs.
Why won't Mom let you come home?
Mom's not keeping me away,
buddy.
There's just things
I got to take care of.
Things to keep us all safe.
I know. But why can't you
do any of that here?
I wish I could, buddy.
Hey.
Mom and I both love you a ton.
Two tons.
Two tons of love weighs the same
as two tons of rocks.
So basically,
you're crushing me.
You want to crush this ball?
- Yeah.
- Crush it. Crush it!
I'm Aaron Glover,
and that's all for this week's
episode of "828-Gate,"
but you don't want to miss
next week's episode,
"Chapter Six: Closing in on the Holy Grail."
Next week's episode,
"Chapter Six: Closing in on the Holy Grail."
Glad you decided to trust me.
I haven't... yet.
But answer my questions,
and I might.
What did you mean by "The Holy Grail"?
Just something
a confidential source said.
Not good enough.
I won't name names.
Right after 828 returned,
Senate Intelligence Committee,
House Appropriations started
having secret meetings.
In which they earmarked millions
to preserve the phantom shiner.
It's a fish.
Hasn't been seen since the 1940s,
so why earmark funds?
To pay for
a clandestine operation.
Look at you.
But all my source had was a fragment
of a conversation he overheard.
A senator said,
"It's the Holy Grail.
We have to be the first,
or 828 blows up in our face."
The Holy Grail?
You think that's what
the Major's looking for?
No, not literally.
This isn't Arthurian legend.
But it's something big.
It's time to go on the record.
Not yet.
We're still on background.
But I will tell you this...
The Major on that chopper
was a woman.
- What's her name?
- Don't know yet.
The chopper could lead us to it.
I'm assuming you traced it.
My source told me it was
a military Black Hawk.
We need Intel access.
CIA, NSA.
Powell.
Vance's deputy.
- Can you trust him?
- Oh, hardly.
But I trust his loyalty
to Vance.
The thing is, I'll never get
through the NSA's front door.
But your sources could find me
a side entrance.
That's not a good sign.
Hello? NYPD.
Newspapers, mail.
This isn't looking like
a planned vacation.
I do not want to know what it
looks like inside that carton.
November 6th.
That's two days after 828 returned.
Causing her to leave in a hurry?
Yeah, or taken.
Maybe the same people
who took Paul took Helen.
I have to find her.
You had a calling, didn't you?
When? What was it?
Are you reading my mind now?
I know you, Mick.
I need to go back to the
beach house and see Paul again.
Try and jog his memory.
Maybe he remembers
relatives or friends
who might be able to help.
Yeah. Okay. Let's go.
Why don't you stay here
and search the place?
Maybe start with the mail.
Are you trying to ditch me now?
Paul's delicate.
It's better if I go it alone.
I don't recognize her.
How can I not remember
my own wife?
What happened to me?
I just want my life back.
Believe me, I know.
Listen, we're gonna find her, okay?
And I'm sure once you see her,
it'll all come back.
Find her.
Find her.
It just happened again.
Yeah. But these callings
are so different, Ben.
I thought it was about the words,
but the blizzard, the wind, it just...
it feels more vital.
Like it's not just about finding Helen.
I don't know
what the snow means,
but this mystery Major is a woman.
And we definitely need to find her.
Maybe Paul's wife
isn't who we're after.
Okay. Until we know
what's going on,
I think we should look for both.
- Hey.
- Hey, guys.
I got your message.
What's up?
Uh, this is gonna sound crazy.
I think our operational baseline
is 10 points up from crazy.
Well, this is gonna turn it up to 11.
Two sources told me
that the Major
is looking for the Holy Grail.
- Right.
- Yeah, I didn't think so either.
But she's used the phrase twice,
so it's got to be code
for something specific.
What is she chasing?
Same thing we are.
Answers.
To what's happened,
what's causing the callings,
how to control them.
I'll go through the lab notes.
Maybe I missed something.
Yeah.
Hey, I got to run.
Jared's got a lead that might
get us to Paul's wife.
And I got a lead on Powell.
What do you want from him?
The Major, the Holy Grail.
Where to begin?
The last charge
on Helen's credit card
was an Uber ride to here.
Clerk ID'd her photo.
Said she was in room 28.
Checked in alone.
So not a kidnapping.
More like she's hiding. Why?
Helen Santino?
NYPD.
Your husband, Paul, sent us.
Gun!
Oh, God. Please don't kill me.
Please don't kill me.
I'm sorry.
I didn't believe you were cops.
I thought Paul sent you to kill me.
Why would he want to kill you?
He came close a couple times.
Before.
He was abusive.
Not at first.
But after we were married,
it started.
Said if I'd been a better wife,
everything would've been easier.
And I tried. But I could
never be good enough.
None of this is your fault.
I know that now.
Years of therapy,
after he was gone.
When the plane disappeared.
Answered prayers.
When I found out
the plane was back...
The Paul you knew
wouldn't have been happy.
What do you mean
"the Paul I knew"?
What's going on?
Something happened.
Paul lost his memory.
So he's not coming?
You won't tell him where I am?
Helen, it's over.
You're safe. Okay?
When I got the news about 828,
I thought I'd never
be happy again.
Paul coming back was like
this wrecking ball
smashing into everything I'd built.
Hate to ruin your party of one.
Get the hell out of here, Stone.
I get it...
you blame me for Vance's death.
But I didn't get your boss killed.
Give me five minutes,
and you'll know who did.
One minute.
The Major.
That supposed to mean something to me?
It's who Vance thought
he was up against.
She's the head of
a covert military operation,
one that's circumventing
the intelligence community.
Deep pockets, no accountability.
You're not helping your case, Stone.
I thought you said
you had a name.
I don't.
But you can get one.
Trace a Black Hawk,
based out of D.C.
Flew into Red Hook
an hour before the explosion.
The Major, whoever she is,
was on board.
And she was looking for something
she calls the Holy Grail.
I need to understand all this, Powell.
It affects the safety of all
the passengers, of my family.
Please help me.
Your one minute's up.
Whatever you're into,
I want no part of it.
If you're smart,
you'll walk away, too.
No. Vance didn't. He believed
that no one is above the law.
He wanted to help me expose
the truth, wherever it led.
Like I said...
You got him killed.
No, not me. The Major.
And you have a chance to ID her.
Ask yourself... what would
Vance want you to do?
Hey!
Hey, what's up with you?
I don't want to talk about it.
Clearly. You didn't say a word
to me the whole way back.
What's going on?
Why didn't you come to the
hangar when the plane came back?
I'll tell you why...
Because I am a giant wrecking
ball smashing into your life.
- Mick.
- Let's not sugarcoat this, Jay.
We owe each other that.
I'm gonna tell the Captain
that I don't want to work
with you anymore.
- What? No.
- You found happiness, Jared.
You deserve it.
I am not blowing that up.
Hey. He's one of them!
It's Adrian.
Excuse me.
Can we touch you?
Please.
Trust me... this is gonna work.
I totally killed cooking dinner.
I don't think that the quality of
the food is gonna be the issue.
Please, me following
in her culinary footsteps
is just the warm-up.
Tonight is gonna be something
that everybody needs.
Did I hear the doorbell?
Hi.
Danny.
Um... this is
not a good time.
No, no.
It's all good, okay?
I invited him over.
Just for dinner.
I made meatloaf.
Olive.
Grace, she's worried about you.
I am too.
No. We're not having
this conversation.
Not now.
Not in front of her.
I think you should go.
- I don't want him to go.
- Olive, this is a family matter.
What the hell, Mom?!
Danny is family!
Olive!
- Did you find her?
- Yeah.
Where is she?
Can I see her?
No. You can't.
I don't understand.
You know, I thought we were
the same, you and me.
Coming back, being alone.
I felt sorry for you, for me.
But we are not the victims.
We do not get to come crashing into
their lives, wrecking their happiness.
What? Why would...
Why would I...
You seriously don't remember, Paul?
Mick. What's wrong?
Or maybe you don't want to
remember what a monster you are.
You beat your wife.
No.
- Michaela.
- You're wrong. I would ne...
- I just want my life back.
- Stop saying that!
- You do not deserve it!
- No, Michaela, stop!
You do not deserve a damn thing!
Stop it! Geez.
Hey. I got your text.
What's wrong?
You are not a grown-up, Olive.
- Mom and Olive?
- You're not acting like one.
Olive, you can't talk
to your mother like that.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
I-I was invited.
Really? 'Cause it doesn't
look like a happy reunion.
- Ben, it's fine.
- It's not.
I am not dead anymore.
I am right here.
And why does he get to be
in my house with my children?
You are the whole reason
this family is messed up.
I'm trying to pick up
the pieces.
- Ben!
- Stop!
All right?
I invited him!
It's my fault.
No, no, this is not your fault.
This is not your fault.
From the moment
that plane landed,
you wanted to walk back
into this family
like no time had passed.
And I get that,
because for you, it hadn't.
And you wanted the family
that we had built.
And I don't know what I want.
But no matter what I do, I'm the
bad guy, and I'm tired of it.
So we're not doing this.
I understand.
I-I'll leave.
No, no, no. I'll...
I'm sorry. I never really
understood until now.
I only thought about
how much you got back,
not... not what you lost.
Olive wants you here.
No. Dad.
It's okay, Ollie.
I'm okay.
You know you're safe here,
buddy, right?
Come here.
I love you guys so much.
Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
Promise.
Jared, no. You shouldn't
be here right now.
Stop.
Stop telling me what to do.
Or how I'm supposed to feel, Mick.
Look, you asked me why
I didn't go to the hangar.
I didn't go because
I knew if I saw you,
I would've never gone home.
Mick, you're not
a wrecking ball.
You're my soul mate.
No, Jared, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
I still wake up expecting
to find you next to me.
Mick, I still look at you,
and the rest of the world
just goes away.
I love you.
It's always been you.
I didn't cheat death
to live a half a life.
Neither did you.
Ugh.
Yeah?
I found the Black Hawk.
It went wheels up at Langley
10 minutes ago on red alert.
It's a VIP transpo,
assigned for someone's personal use.
It's got to be the Major.
You get a name?
Classified.
If they were at Red Hook,
they're likely behind the
explosion that killed my boss.
You asked me
what Vance would do.
He'd want me to help you.
Thank you.
Just watch your six.
The Black Hawk filed a flight plan...
New York City.
Whoever the Major is,
she's comin'.
I don't know her name.
But she knows me and my family.
And it looks like
she's after us.
All we did was get on a plane.
And because of that, our lives
have never been the same.
Everyone on that flight
got a second chance.
But it came at a high price.
And now there's a new danger facing us.
I don't know what Holy Grail
the Major is closing in on.
But I do know this...
I will not let my family be
collateral damage in her quest.
The way you worked in the tag...
Brilliant.
My subscribers are gonna
go through the roof.
You can't release it.
Are you crazy?
We've got to go after the Major.
Figure out who she is,
who she's working for.
Prove the government
is lying to us.
This is a huge scoop.
People need to know.
Do it, follow the trail.
It just can't go public.
Yet.
Then why did you come to me?
I'm your insurance policy.
If this ends badly,
blow the lid.
And if it doesn't end badly?
Then you've got a Deep Throat.
Be patient.
Who knows how high this all goes.
Danny...
You don't need to say anything.
If you're ready,
when you're ready...
Next week, next month,
next year...
Just say the word.
Then we should move the people
to a-a nursing home
- under false names.
- No.
Paul's awakening gave us an
insight into their catatonia.
They were harmed in
service of my theories.
Now we may be close to a cure.
I will not abandon them
when there's still hope.
Then we need to find a way
to keep you all safe.
Find her.
Find her.
Find her.
Hey.
The calling again?
"Find her"?
You found Helen.
Now it must be telling you
to find the Major.
I don't think
we're supposed to find anyone.
I think I'm having
someone else's calling.
What do you mean?
The voice in my head.
It's not mine.
What the hell's going on?
Here you go.
Um, can I squeeze by?
Autumn.
What a lovely name.
Your name.
It's on the cup.
Sorry. I didn't mean
to freak on you.
It's just been a weird day.
I understand.
And I think perhaps
you lost your phone?
No, that's not...
mine.
It is now.
The Major would like a word.
I think I found
the Major's Holy Grail.
What? What is it?
No, it's not a what.
It's a who.
These failed experiments
weren't all a complete failure.
The trial was tracking
relative success.
They found that some
of the passengers
are more sensitive to the callings.
Cal.
If the Major finds out
what he can do...
We got to make sure
she never does.
Find her.
