'Manifest': 5 burning questions we have after NBC show's first episode

Since the flight stayed up for more than 5 years, and the passengers hadn't aged a day when they landed, it's better to take "normal" off the table

Touted as a show that can probably rescue NBC from its consistent fall in ratings, 'Manifest' has given itself quite a good start. In a story arc reminiscent of missing Malaysian MH370 flight, the show follows the return of Montego Air Flight 828 after it goes missing for almost 5 years, and its passengers who have been mysteriously unaffacted by the time lapse.

Other than introducing us to the chief characters, Episode 1 left us wondering what more awaits these hapless protagonists.

In the premiere episode, we saw the characters return from a turbulent journey. However, as it was revealed, this wasn't an easy comeback for neither the pasengers nor their families, since the flight landed on the ground after almost five years.
