Manifest (2018–…): Season 3, Episode 3 - Wingman - full transcript

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.

I 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.

The question is where.

Let me guess. You
need something.

I need help.

There. That's it.

Those are peacock feathers.

Go to her.

That photo belongs to me.

This is a picture of me.

Boy staring at the
girl with the slushy,

that's me.

You're 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?

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 embargo 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 at
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've 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 wanna 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?

Means you're really
focused on everyone else

and you never
take care of yourself.

Did you show Saanvi your hand?

Yeah, I have, but the hand is
the least of my worries, Mick.

- Mmm.
- 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...

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.

We've got a busy day, Eagan.

Why'd you fall off my board?

Pete, you could have
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.

She knew where I
was, how to find me.

She just stared at me.

Yeah, she was scared.

No, she wasn't afraid of me.

She was brave.

Okay, Pete, I'm gonna
need you to focus.

I need your help finding
Jace and Kory. Where are...

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 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.

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 bizarre 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?

Rise and shine.

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
General 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.

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?
- Mm-mm.

Anything about
friends, family, children.

I didn't know she had any kids.

Yeah, a daughter. She's
actually who came looking for her.

It's Mick.

We're gonna handle this.

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.

Um...

A painting of a boat on the sea.

A rumbling radiator, gold frog.

It's a toad.

Bronze unicorn,

light shimmering
through a window,

an urn,

cowboy statue,

marble monkey...

What're you doing?

Recreating the calling.

Gum wrapper unicorn, the
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.

M.E. 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's just when I saw Glen's
body, everything happened...

Hey, hey. There's
nothing to apologize for.

I'm here to help.

I saw my mom struggle
with my granddad'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.

I 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 wanna 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 if you didn't
talk about my family like that.

Your family?

That's the second
time you've said that.

What does that make me, Grace?

No, never mind. I already know.

Oh, come on,
Tarik. That's not fair.

No, what's not fair is you
leave me alone with Dad.

Do you know what it's like to watch
someone you love gets sick and die?

'Cause while you were doing whatever
you were doing for 11 years, I was here.

Every day I 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 soulmate

and who knows,
stranger things...

High-pitched sound waves can
disrupt the restoration process.

Obviously.

Come on. This is
what TJ was talking...

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.

Urn...

It had numbers
reflected on it, 601.

But 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.

They're objects.

Alone, they're just an
assortment of items.

But together, they
make up a collection

- like a museum.
- Museum.

I made drops to all the museums
back when I was a courier.

Museums by the water.

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, shutdown.
Still never wavered.

So you want to lock me up?

Say it to my face.

Are you buying all of this?

I believe him.

It's your call, Director.

What is this place?

Fancy name for self-storage.

It's where the not
exactly one percent

hide their stuff from the
IRS and their ex-wives.

How do we suppose we get in?

Now that I don't know.

The teenager from the calling...

You 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.

- Oh.
- There you go, Beverly.

That is such a
beautiful diamond.

Actually, it's a white sapphire.

Jared has good taste.

Not awkward.

All right, 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.

Beverly, this is Zeke, this
is actually my husband.

Heartbeats again?

Yeah, 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.

You're lucky we're best friends.

Best friends forever.

Look at the two of you.

Get back here.

Hey. Hey.

Evie! Evie!

This is gonna take forever.

You can't time-lapse
restoration.

Okay? It's not Instagram.

Defensive much?

You've two sets
of free hands here.

We're not doing anything.

Took me four years,
ten 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 Al-Zuras.

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 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 cell phones.

Three. Don't expect
credit when I publish.

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.

- Spider's crawling up your back.
- Spider's crawling up your back.

Hey, Ol!

I miss you.

I miss you too, bud.

601...

601...

- Where's 601?
- There.

Damn it.

Hello.

Someone in there?

You got a credit card, ID?

Multi-talented.

Where is he? Where's the kid?
We must have 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
upside down images...

- 109.
- Look at you, Professor.

The rumblings.

I think this time it's for real.

Let's 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 have made
arrangements for Beverly

to go live in an
assisted living facility.

As for you, Michaela,
getting you back

was like getting a
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.

109.

What's that smell?

It's gas. Cover your mouth.

Pipe must've burst.

Yeah, I'd say it's 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.

Hi. My name is
Ben. What's yours?

- Caleb.
- Caleb.

We gotta haul ass or
we're gonna die in here.

Can you handle
the kid on your own?

- 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.

Right, go. Go!

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 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 pictures in this bag?

Who put my things in here?

Beverly, um...

I put them in there.

You're moving today, okay?

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'm not talking to you.

Who are you anyway?

- Evie! Glenn?
- No, hey.

- Evie - Beverly, Beverly.

They're not... Beverly.

No, 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're trying to
hurt me. 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?

Would this help?

How did... how did you do that?

I don't know.

- Just had a feeling.
- My Evie made this for me.

She was brave.

- You okay?
- Uh...

Yeah. 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 in the afterlife.

She placed the deceased's
heart on the 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.

Metaphorical weighing of souls.

Yeah, exactly, but... but
this depiction, it's unusual.

And every representation I've
come across, Ma'at takes the heart

and weighs it against
an ostrich feather.

But this is too colorful
to be an ostrich.

It's almost like...

- A peacock.
- A peacock.

What is this missing section?

I 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?

We're goin'on a treasure hunt

A very important treasure hunt

Xmarks the spot

Circle with a dot

Spiders crawling up your back

I can't believe you
remember that stupid rhyme.

Actually, I didn't. Until I
overheard Cal and Olive reciting it.

Brought me back.

You taught it to him?

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 have
been there for...

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 six.

He was...

- He was so sick, and so little.
- God.

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 had been there for you.

At least we have each other now.

How'd you know?

Know what?

That I needed to see Pete?

Long story short,
I 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 right here watching.

You have a visitor.

I keep looking at this
picture thinking it's...

some wild coincidence,

but I think it's more...

I think it's a sign.

Michaela saved me.

I think I'm supposed
to save you.

I heard this...

voice...

in my head.

It said "Go to her."

I think I'm supposed
to be with you, too.

Eagan, where are you?

Eagan!

Come on!

Close call. Nice
work, Professor.

You're alive.

When the room collapsed...

That gas got so intense, I had
to turn around and head out.

That's my cue. Nice
working with you.

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, you okay?

My head hurts.

I want to go home.

All right. We'll get you checked
out first, and then I'll drive you home.

Thanks.

- Where is 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 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...

extralegal 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!

Oh.

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.

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 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.

Babe, Beverly needs 24/7 care.

Okay, great. So we'll move in
here. 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.

So what we're 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. I 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...

These the fragments
TJ sent over?

Yeah, most of them.

But, uh, I don't know
what they mean.

Hey, you've been here all
