'Manifest' Season 1 recap: Ben Stone's involvement in Montego Air Flight 828 might be a little more complicated

Ben Stone had initially suggested that he would take the next flight home, but why would he do that when he knows that delaying would only harm his son?

Josh Dallas' character, Ben Stone, has been the typical hero in NBC's 'Manifest'. Coming from creator Jeff Rake, the show has been following the aftermath of the re-appearance of Montego Air Flight 828 which went missing for almost five and a half years. As one of the passengers on the plane, when he returned, Ben had not aged a day but like his sister, Michaela (Melissa Roxburgh) who was also on that plane, Ben was hearing strange voices in his heads that he is referring to as "Callings". Along with Michaela, and Saanvi (Parveen Kaur), a fellow passenger Ben has been trying to track the "Callings" in order to trace out their purpose. 

While throughout Season 1, Ben has come across as the perfect Prince Charming who puts his family before anything else, and is actually taking all the risk to save his son, Cal (Jack Messina) who had strangely developed clairsensitive powers, there might be a few things that we have missed out about our savior. Ben's return has put his wife, Grace (Athena Karkanis), under a shadow and her relationship with Danny (Daniel Sunjata) was immediately a reason for fans to despise her. However, it was Grace who has always been pointing out that something was oddly different about Ben when he returned. Grace's concern might seem of no value but considering that she never mentioned it about Cal, or Jared (J.R.Ramirez) always found Michaela just the same, probably there is a little more to Ben than meets the eye.
