'Manifest' Season 1 recap: The finale might have just wrecked Grace's reputation forever on the show

Grace came up with a secret which changed the Stone family's dynamics in the end, however, it still seems that the family will get over the obstacle, yet again.

Athena Karkanis' character 'Grace' was almost on the verge of retaining her place as a considerably good character on NBC's show, 'Manifest', but the finale seems to have completely abolished her chances. Fans have been keeping her under the radar ever since it was revealed that she was having an affair with Danny ( Daniel Sunjata) while her husband, Ben (Josh Dallas) was missing for almost five and a half years. Ben was one of the passengers on Montego Air Flight 828, which mysteriously went missing for almost five and a half years. However, when these passengers finally landed they began hearing strange voices in their heads which they referred to as "Callings". 

While Ben, his son, Cal (Jack Messina), and his sister, Michaela (Melissa Roxburgh) were busy looking for the secret behind these "Callings", for a long time, Grace had absolutely no clue about what was happening. However, when things began to go out of hand and the Stone family fell apart, Ben finally took an effort to explain to Grace about the "Callings", and Cal's ability to predict the future. The couple immediately became a team, and it almost seemed that Grace has been able to close her brief chapter with Danny, and has returned to her husband, Ben. However, one revelation in the finale changed everything.
