'Manifest': Just like Grace, Jared too lost his hero status and went on to become the bad boy in fans' books
Stuck in between two women, Jared has always been clear about what he wants but he never had the courage to act on it.
As much as 'Manifest' has seen a steady development in its mystery about the missing Montego Air Flight 828, the characters, on the other hand, have been pretty much stagnant. Whether it's Ben (Josh Dallas), Michaela (Melissa Roxburgh), or anyone else, the characters have mostly one shade. Perhaps a tactic used by creator Jeff Rake in order to keep the viewer's concentration stuck to the mystery. However, there are only two characters who have seen massive ups and downs in their lives, and those are Grace (Athena Karkanis) and Jared (J.R.Ramirez). Yet more than Grace it is Jared whose character actually went for a roller coaster ride on the show, and yes, we feel his pain.
