Reaction / Review for Manifest Season 2 Episode 9: Episode 8 one was great and I gave it a rating of 8.6/10. So glad TJ is alive. Cal has a new calling, im interested. Saanvi's behavior is really weird. I don't think it would be a good idea for Zeke to take the ''cure'' Saanvi made, she obviously has bad side effects from taking the drug. It's nice to see Zeke caring about Saanvi's health tho. I didn't expect that Michaela would be arrested. She is innocent and Jared isnt but this IA people don't see it. The callings keep getting weirder and weirder, it's trippy. Something was off with episode, something wasnt right, I don't know exactly what but it's not as good as previous episodes. My rating is 7.5/10.

Best episode yet. First one to actually match abortamir's score.

There were three storylines and I found all of them quite compelling. I didn't find any of the main characters annoying this episode, not even Jared.

First, Michaela is being questioned by IA presumably about Jared, but it's pretty clear they seem to think she's guilty of something, and push her until she's ready to tell them anything and everything about Jared. Thankfully her union rep seems quite capable and suggests taking the interview down to 1PP. When Jared recognizes him as one of Simon's people and realizes Michaela's life is in danger, he decides to arrest her for the arson. This adds to my suspicion that he's been working undercover (at least I hope he is). It would explain why the captain is aware of his involvement with the Xers.

Then we've got the Stones and TJ. The storm added to the tension inside the house, despite (or perhaps because of) not being real. Grace wasn't feeling well (as though seasick), TJ and Cal, who are usually very laid back, were both on edge and short-tempered, and Ben was uncharacteristically impatient with Cal. It all added to a sense of foreboding. Then finally, when Ben realized what Cal was trying to build and helped him do so, and they found themselves on the ship, we finally realized what the silver dragon was, and how the events of the past are connected to the present. And then comes the realization that to survive, the passengers must accepts their callings (recall that the armoured car robber died after he decided to exploit his calling instead of following it).

Finally, there's Zeke and Sanvii. Zeke has gone to see Sanvii, hoping to get rid of the calling, but Sanvii (who's been treating herself) is obviously not well, and doesn't realize it. Zeke enlists the help of Sanvii's ex, and she seems better. But is she doomed? Or will she get her calling back?
