Manifest (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 2 - Grounded - full transcript
Ben forms a cautious alliance with a student from Flight 828; Saanvi strives to further her research into the Death Date; Grace makes a startling discovery about her pregnancy.
Previously on "Manifest"...
Save the passengers.
Grace: I'm pregnant.
I just thought this would be
something special
to bring us all together
when everything else
is so scary.
NSA, drop your weapon!
[ Machine-gun fire ]
Somebody help me!
You're Dr. Saanvi Bahl,
right?
I'm sorry. And you are...?
Troy Davis.
Oncology lab tech.
I have an appointment...
with a therapist.
Michaela and I,
we're meant to be together.
[ Gun cocks ]
Back off!
[ Gunshot ]
Where's Zeke?
NYPD's looking for him.
I'm here to ask you
to call off the hunt.
It was an accident.
Bowers: You got shot,
and your new
boyfriend ran off.
The Callings said
you guys are gonna die!
You need to be
with Michaela.
She doesn't have much time.
And neither do you.
He's never gonna know
about his Death Date.
He's innocent.
We have to make it possible
for him to come home.
I didn't mean to hurt you,
and I did.
What happens the next time
I get a Calling?
This is what I need to do --
own up to my actions.
Jared:
Zeke turned himself in.
He knows he's guilty.
You're not the only one
who can come back from the dead.

Paramedic:
You okay, sir?
My arm hurts like hell,
but I'll live,
thanks to you
pulling me out of there.
Sir, we need to get you
to a hospital.
No, people inside
our own government
were willing to kill me.
If I'm gonna
take them down,
I want them to think
they succeeded.
You know the drill.
The world needs to think
I'm dead.
Michaela:
Well, I was convinced.
Ben:
The whole world was.
You would have loved
your funeral...
Bobby.
Hmm.
Well, I'm sorry I couldn't
tell the truth to you --
well, both of you,
but no one knows
except my guys,
my wife,
and now the two of you.
You want to bring her up
to speed, or should I?
Well, I wasn't planning
to see you
until I knew who the Major was,
but your bloodhound brother
accelerated
our little reunion.
Yeah, well,
that's our Ben for you.
So far, I've identified a-a
black ops financial pipeline
that appears to be funding
a shadow 828 investigation.
Suffice it to say,
I've been following the money.
And in the past week,
that money has doubled.
Why?
What's the Major planning?
Well, that's why
I asked you here.
I was hoping one of you
could tell me.
A budget spike like that had to
be the response to something.
Did anything significant happen
to the 828 passengers
this week?
Hmm,
not that we know of.
You want me to do
some poking around?
Stone, the last time
you poked around,
you ended up
in the back of a van
with a hood
over your head.
Right. Yeah.
I'll leave the espionage to you.
But I have been connecting
with more
and more passengers
every day.
In fact, I've got a meeting
in an hour with an 828er.
He's a freshman
at Astoria.
He called me
twice yesterday.
Seems like he's got
something to tell me.
Good.
'Cause after all this is over,
I can stop being dead,
and I would really
like you all to live.
And maybe we can get
to the bottom
of where the hell you all went
for 5 1/2 years.
♪♪

Ben: TJ.
Hey.
Hey.
Thanks for meeting me
on campus.
No problem.
I'd forgotten how quiet
a campus gets
between sessions.
I used to be a professor.
You don't teach anymore?
[ Chuckles ]
No, I'm trying,
but with all
the attention and suspicion,
the opportunities
just haven't been there.
Yeah.
828 changed my life
a lot.
Me too.
It changed
everything for me.
I used to love it here.
Did well in my classes,
joined the cross country team,
the Latin club.
I was in it.
And my mom was proud...
which made me proud.
And then
you went to Jamaica.
You know, this was
probably a mistake.
I'm sorry
that I bothered you.
TJ.
Listen, you asked me here
for a reason.
♪♪
Is it because
you're seeing things?
Hearing things, maybe?
Both.
And they've gotten...
Hey, it's okay.
You can talk to me about this.
I-I get them, too.
A lot of us do.
"Callings."
Sometimes they can be
pretty terrifying.
Like seeing
your own death?
Yeah.
Yeah, like that.
This morning,
I had a vision
of being inside
my own grave.
Cal: You think it's
a Death Date Calling?
You still thinking
about the "save
the passengers" Calling?
Yeah, me too.
It felt like the plane
was crashing.
So maybe it's showing us
how we're gonna die?
Um...
Well, your dad seems to think
that it's about
saving the passengers
before the Death Date.
It felt more urgent
than that, didn't it?
I know.
We have to talk to Zeke.
He was on the plane
in our Calling,
even though he wasn't
in real life.
That means something.
Yeah, I know.
Well, once he's out on bail,
we can talk to him.
He had the same Calling,
so --
He didn't.
How do you know that?
In the Calling, he couldn't
hear us or see us,
and neither
could anyone else.
We have to save him,
just like we have to save
the rest of the passengers.
Okay,
I'm gonna try again
to talk to him, alright?
Okay.
I'm gonna miss having you
live with us, Auntie Mick.
Well, I'm gonna miss
stealing your waffles, buddy,
but I got to go back
to my apartment.
It's time.
[ Sighs ]
[ Horn honking ]
♪♪
Are you sure about this?
Once we know,
we can't un-know.
It's gonna be okay,
no matter what.
[ Door opens ]
Paternity, right?
Yeah.
So, we just need to get
a single vial of blood
and then
I'll swab your cheek
and we'll send them
both to the lab
and we should have results back
within one to two days.
Great.
Are you afraid of needles?
No.
[ Echoing ] Stop.
Who...?
You okay?
Um, uh...
[ Echoing ] Stop.
Grace?
[ Echoing ] Stop!
[ Gasps ]
Grace!
I'm -- I'm sorry,
we have to go!
Wait, you -- you -- you --
you can't -- you can't just --
We have to go.
Honey.
Honey, are you okay?
What just happened?
I just h-heard
my own voice,
over and over,
telling me to stop.
Oh, my God.
You just had a Calling.
[ Engines roaring ]
♪♪
I don't understand.
How could I have a Calling?
It doesn't make any sense.
I wasn't --
I wasn't on the plane.
But I was.
That still
doesn't explain...
Oh, my God.
The pregnancy.
It's the only thing
that makes sense.
So...
that would mean...
it's your baby.
It sure seems that way.
God, Ben, it's your baby.
Come on.
Let's get you home.
Come on.
[ Cell door buzzes ]
That inmate
is refusing visitors.
Ezekiel Landon?
Can you try again?
That inmate's
refusing visitors.
Uh, does this help?
Sure, assuming
the ADA sent you,
advised the inmate's lawyer,
and you have a case number.
No, I'm not officially
on the case,
but I'm
an interested party.
I'm a friend of his.
You...
Next.
Thank you.
Have a good day.
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Wycoff and Holland,
look into the automobile theft
at Clark Towing.
I got it.
And, Raines,
your warrants came through
on the 15th Avenue bust.
And of course, welcome,
Detective Stone,
back from medical leave.
[ Whistling and applause ]
Okay, let's get to it.
Detective Stone.
Hi.
Hi.
Drea Mikami.
I just want to say it's such
an honor to meet you.
Oh.
Your conviction record
is almost too good to be true.
I was wondering, maybe,
if you had a second,
we could sit down,
and I could pick your brain
about how you --
Um, Mikami, do you mind?
Uh, kind of.
Yeah.
Detective Stone, I see you've
met your new partner,
Detective Mikami.
Um...
Hold on.
Captain. Captain.
Wow, this is --
This is great.
Yeah, give --
one sec.
Uh, Captain?
Detective Stone and I --
we used to be partners.
Yeah, and that partnership
triggered a lot
of internal investigations
and unwanted attention
from One PP.
So now I'm in charge,
and Detective Stone
has a new partner.
Don't start sleeping
with this one.
Hey.
You know this
is not gonna work.
You need me to have
your back here.
You know what?
Actually, I think
I just need you to let this go.
Maybe it's for the best.
Clean break.
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Grace:
Definitely need this nap.
I forgot how exhausting
it is to make a new human.
Well, I am a big fan
of your work.
We should still confirm.
I'll go see Saanvi
as soon as I'm up.
[ Cellphone vibrating ]
Hmm.
It's that kid TJ,
the one that had
the Death Date Calling.
I was supposed to meet him
again tomorrow, but...
Yeah.
Go.
Alright.

TJ?
TJ?!
TJ: Ben?
I didn't know what to do.
I didn't want
to call the police.
Alright, what is it?
What happened?
It wasn't me
I saw in the grave.
What?
It wasn't me.
[ Sighs ]
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, TJ,
what happened?
I have no idea.
I was trying to follow
the Calling,
to see if I could make
any more sense of it
after we talked
this morning.
A-And it brought you here?
And I just started digging.
God.
What do I do?
Grace: Apparently,
the Calling
only trusts you
to take my blood.
This changes everything
I thought I knew.
Scientifically speaking,
Callings have now been
transferred genetically
through the baby.
So, if it is
Ben's baby...
will the Death Date
also transfer?
We have no proof
of that...
okay?
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Detective Vasquez,
129th.
Catch me up.
You are looking at late teens,
early 20s.
Rigor is abating,
suggesting that she's been
dead at least 36 hours.
Blunt force trauma
and suffocation.
We found a student key card
in her pocket.
Campus security is going
to run it for an I.D.
Thank you.
You're campus security,
right?
I want to know every time
and place that key card
was used this week.
Copy.
Jared, I called 911.
How'd you get put on this?
Oh, I saw your name
as a reporting witness.
I thought I should just
come check it out.
Uh, this is TJ.
He was on 828,
and he...
found the body.
Oh.
How, exactly?
It's okay.
He'll understand.
Well, I was walking,
and, I don't know,
I just had a feeling.
So I started digging,
and I found her.
I know how crazy
that must sound.
Can I talk to you
for a minute?
♪♪
So, he's saying
that a Calling
he had led him here,
and you believe him?
Yeah, how else could he have
found the girl's body?
He could have found her
by putting her there.
Come on, Jared.
You think he killed her?
Look, I don't think
anything, Ben.
I'm gathering
the facts, okay?
That's my job.
[ Indistinct conversations,
telephones ringing ]
You're a better cop
than a criminal.
Sorry, what?
You swiped that file
off Vasquez's desk.
Is that his court docket?
Yep.
Are you and Vasquez
in some kind of detente
I need to know about?
Uh, need to?
No.
Got it.
My last partner retired.
Aviera. Good guy,
but super old-school.
How did Aviera feel about
being paired with a rich kid?
Where'd that come from?
That watch
is three months' salary,
you say things
like "detente,"
and you have a photo
on your desk of a horse --
English saddle,
not Western.
So, yeah,
you're moneybags.
Okay, not me, exactly,
but my mom kind of killed it
on Wall Street.
I'm guessing this isn't
quite the trajectory
she had in mind for you.
Being a cop?
No.
But I love it.
And I want to learn
from the best.
So maybe lesson one
is why you read arraignments
so carefully?
Lesson one is this.
What is the foundation
of any good partnership?
Trust.
Great.
So, you can trust me
not to tell anyone
about your
Upper Eastside past.
Tribeca. Deal.
What do I do?
Cover for me while I deal
with something.
Go.
I'll return the contraband.

I don't know.
Oh, no, honey.
We can't be talking
to Believers.
No, mom, she's super nice.

really careful.
If they find out
there's an 828 baby --
If it is an 828 baby.
It is.
Wait. Wait.
So, i-it is dad's baby?
You took the paternity test.
Yeah.
I mean, not exactly,
but, yeah, it's dad's.
Wait, what?
I'm --
How do you know, then?
Um...
I had a Calling.
What? Wait?
How -- How is that even...?

Not really.

What if I can't
afford the bail?
We're gonna get the money.
One count of assault
in the first degree.
And you wish to defend yourself?
I do.
Can I make a statement?
Go ahead.
Your Honor, I've made a lot
of mistakes in my life,
and I've hurt people,
good, decent people
whose only flaw
was believing in me.
I hurt my little sister,
my parents,
and I hurt someone --
someone I never wanted
to hurt.
I don't want
to spend the time
I have left fighting
these charges
and dragging out the pain
for those I care about.

possession of a firearm...

You must be TJ.
Hi.
I hear Detective Vasquez
brought you in

Though he's kept us
waiting long enough.
It's fine.
TJ's a glutton
for punishment.
He's a cross-country runner

What's that about?
Um, probably my
unscheduled appearance
at Zeke's arraignment.
You don't have to wait

Yeah.
If you're here, I'm here.
The question is...
do you want to stay?
I want to see it through.
I mean, there's got
to be a reason
why I got this
Calling, right?
Why it was sent to me
and not you or your sister?
Yeah, maybe.
We still haven't figured out
exactly how it works.
Well, at least
you have each other.
Hmm.
Just like me with my mom.
