It was a real dumb storyline that, after two years, finally evacuated its bowels all over the bed.įinally, at the end of the episode, Ben has another calling/vision, and sees Flight 828 - the plane he was on - explode in mid-air. It didn’t matter, anyway, because we learned that The Major didn’t have a cure, that she was going to inject people with whatever it is that causes these callings, and weaponize it for the U.S. In a struggle, however, The Major broke the vial with the antidote, so The Major died. Saanvi injected The Major with poison and told her that she would die in 90 seconds if she didn’t tell her where the “cure” was. The Major stole some research that Saanvi - a scientist and Flight 828 passenger - compiled in trying to find a “cure” for these callings. Meanwhile, there has been a separate storyline involving an FBI agent named Vance and a mysterious woman played by Elizabeth Marvel known as The Major. Seconds later, however, he is hit with a warm glow, he wakes up, and he returns to normal. Ben - Cal’s father - pulls Zeke out of the water, and Zeke dies. At that moment, Zeke - about to die from frostbite - jumps into the water and saves Cal. However, before Michaela could exchange the meth for Cal, lightning stuck a frozen pond that Cal and the meth dealers were standing on and they fell into the icy waters. Thanks to the calling of Zeke - the fella dying of frostbite - they were able to locate Cal before the meth dealers slashed his throat. Michaela - a cop - stole the meth from the evidence locker with the help of her ex-fiance, Jared, who is also a cop. This week, the three meth dealers - who had escaped from prison - offered to exchange Cal for the meth with which they were caught and arrested. Last week, a little boy named Cal was kidnapped by three meth dealers - shadow people he once saw in a vision. That death date has finally arrived, and after marrying Michaela last week, it appeared as though he would die from exposure to the cold he felt in the cave six months prior (even though, in the present, Zeke lives in a comfortable environment). We learn this from Zeke, who - months ago - nearly froze to death in a cave while hiking but, like Flight 828, passed through a time hole and came out six months later, meaning his death date was six months hence. In the season finale, however, we learned that, if passengers follow their callings, they can be spared death on their death dates. On that day in 2024, all the passengers will die. The passengers also have a “death date.” Because the plane was missing for five-and-a-half years, the “death date” is five-and-a-half-years after they landed. Over the course of two seasons and 29 episodes, this is what we have learned that has stuck: The passengers on the plane have “callings,” or visions that beckon them to complete specific tasks.
