UPDATED JAN 11, 2019

NBC's 'Manifest' returned with quite some revealing subplots, but it is Episode 11 which will become the terminal point of the series' first season. Starring Frank Deal as Captain Daly and Jack Messina as Cal, alongside Josh Dallas as Ben Stone, Melissa Roxburgh as Michaela Stone, Athena Karkanis as Grace, and J.R. Ramirez as Jared, this episode will see Daly attempting to take off in search for answers as to what happened on Montego Air Flight 828. Creator Jeff Rake, who has been teasing fans with clues and hints hidden in every episode, is about to give fans the biggest clue they have to look out for and it all points to the controversial Area 51.

Episode 11, named as 'Contrails' and subtitled as 'KXTA', will see Daly trying to convince Ben and Michaela that what he experienced on the plane as a pilot was nothing similar to what any of them had seen.
