Spoilers and ranting about character I loathe. It was a good episode but the end has given me the need to rant.

Shame that they got rid of Vance who was becoming a good character in this show. I character I loathe the most every single episode is Grace. Yeah we get it she thought her son and husband were dead for 5.5 years. She doesn't need to say that 10 times an episode every episode. In the flashback earlier this season she only cried about her son being gone and never her husband. She's selfish AF. She treats Ben as an inconvenience all the time and only seemed grateful for him when he came up with a plan to slowly repay the life insurance policy. When she says that she doesn't think this is right anymore, I wanted to slap Ben when he said he can't give her what she needs and deserves. Dude she's not good enough for him not the other way around.

... to please please PLEASE KILL GRACE asap.

I still love the show. You have to be willing to set reality aside, in every way, including the way normal people would react to a crazy situation like this. But all in all it's still addictive.

Glad they at least somewhat wrapped up the storyline with the missing passengers. Vance better not be dead, I'm hopeful since we didn't see a body. Grace is one of the worst characters I have seen on tv in a long time, enough said.

Haven't finished the episode yet, I hope Vance made it!

Well, this episode advances the story line. But the writers killed off one of the interesting characters (hopefully he's not actually dead) but left the most annoying (Grace).

Reaction / Review for Manifest Season 1 Episode 9: Episode 8 was great and I gave it a rating of 8/10. New passenger becomes part of the team? Nice. Ben is right, the experiments need to stop or Cal is in danger. Wow this time all of them feel the torture? Things just got more interesting. Cal's nose is bleeding but he says he is fine? What's going on? Oh boy they are going in. Is everyone gone or the location is wrong? Now that's a cool fight scene. Wait Vance died? This sucks, I love his character. This sucks for Ben, all he wanted was to save his son. Jared is in the hospital, where is his wife? Until I see Vance's dead body I cant believe he is dead. Now that there are no more experiments I wonder what's next. Wow this woman works for the enemy? I didn't expect that. Overall a great episode, my rating is 8.5/10.

So Ben Stone goes with sister Mick and NSA guy Vance and Jared and a bunch of armed guys to find the missing 11 passengers that are being experimented on / tortured by a secret government group. Son Cal shows up out of nowhere to help and guide his dad on what to do. There's a lot of shooting and explosions. After they successfully save the 11, Ben takes Cal home in a blown up car, to find wife Grace in tears. She blows up because she thinks Ben has put Cal in danger. Ben breaks down and cries too, but fails to even attempt to explain what actually happened, so she completely melts down and says it's over and he has to leave. Really? Okay, it's a nutty story, but at least this time he has Mick and some others that were there with them to vouch for what happened. Yet Ben makes basically NO effort to explain any of it and says "Ok, I'm leaving but I have to take Cal with me". So I guess this is all leading somewhere, but it's getting old and lame and just wondering if it's worth watching any more. Is it just me ?

Episode could've been much shorter if it wasn't for the sob fest at every possible occasion. Even with an episode packed with action, it's starting to lose its steam.
