'Manifest': 5 things the show needs to address when it returns after its fall break

The Jeff Rake-crreated show has left many things hanging by a thin thread, and we hope that they will be dealt with once the show returns in January.

Starring Josh Dallas (as Ben Stone), Athena Karkanis (as Grace), Melissa Roxburgh (as Michaela Stone), and Parveen Kaur (as Saanvi Bahl), Manifest follows the sudden re-appearance of Montego Air Flight 828, which went missing for almost five and a half years. The mystery deepens when all the passengers return alive, none of them seem to have aged even a day. The passengers get back into their daily world and realize they're now experiencing certain "callings" which seem to be leading them towards one destination. Keeping the mysterious element intact, during the course of its run, NBC's Jeff Rake-created show 'Manifest' kept dropping hints about the missing plane in every episode.

While the show is set to return on January 7, in the fall finale, it gave the audience certain hints which have either helped establish the villain of the show or offered glimpses into what could await the Stone siblings. However, there are still certain things that the show has left unaddressed. Whether its Saanvi's discovery regarding brain tissues or Vance's doubtful death, there are many things that have intensified the mystery. Considering every clue that seems to have been dropped here and there through the first half of Season 1, here are the top five things that 'Manifest' must address when it returns from the long fall break.
