Manifest Season 1 Episode 5 "Connecting Flights" Review
Stories unfold for those left behind in the aftermath of Flight 828's disappearance; Cal takes Ben on a mysterious adventure.
This was a really interesting episode that had a lot of really good moments to it. I really enjoyed this episode focused on what life was like for the family and friends of those who went missing on Flight 828. Everything with Grace and Olive was well done with them telling the story of how they dealt with there loss and how Grace started to move on with Danny and Olive refusing to believe that her brother and father were dead. I do wish they would have shown more of Olive's "bad attitudes" because the last episode they made a big deal out of Olive being a trouble and rambunctious teen but all they really showed in this episode was that she was having a hard time getting over her families deaths and she didn't much care for Grace's new boyfriend. Then I also enjoyed seeing how Jared and Lourdes got together because of there shared loss and it was fun to see how even Michaela's parents were okay with Jared choosing to move on. Then the moments in current time with Jared were interesting with him dealing with the consequences of the last episode and Michaela and other are trying to convince him to tell the truth but him not willing to let Michaela take the fall. Then the moments with Ben and Cal were great with Ben deciding to ignore the voice in his head and making all the choices in his day out with Cal by a flip of a coin. Then how those coin flips and voice all leading to some truths of what is going on with Cal and how "everything is connected" was a really great way to bring Ben back into the world he was trying to escape from. Then just overall this was a really great episode and I'm interested to see what will happen next with it being reviled that Cal is more connected with the truth of what happened to them.
