'Manifest' Season 2 Episode 6 Preview: Missing Saanvi? She now has a big 'death date' experiment to deal with

Where is Saanvi Bahl (Parveen Kaur)? 'Manifest' fans have been asking that question ever since Episode 5 aired tonight. While 'Coordinated Flight' put the spotlight on the Stone family and intensified attacks on 828 passengers, Saanvi was mysteriously missing. Well, the makers seem to have a reason behind it as she has a big role to play in the next episode. 

Titled 'Return Trip', the new episode hints at a risky experiment she is about to undertake. "We have to save the passengers," Saanvi says in the new 15-second clip and adds, "I have to test on myself." While Ben Stone (Josh Dallas) tries to save her while yelling "no," it seems like she has already decided to undergo the experiment.

Fans seem to be hysteric with the twist. "So y'all are just gonna leave Saanvi out of a whole episode then have her risking her life to solve the death date in the next episode? What's up with that #Manifest," one fan wrote and another said, "I figured you was hard at work which is why we didn't see you this week Saanvi but I didn't think that's what you was gonna be doing?? Testing on yourself? Your gonna put me through it next week aren't ya?" 



 

 The summary of the next episode reads: "Ben and Saanvi work together to orchestrate a surprising family reunion for an emotionally closed-off Flight 828 passenger. Meanwhile, Olive drifts further away from her family, Jared learns more about a growing cabal of anti-828 sentiment, and Michaela finds herself out on a limb when baggage from Zeke's past threatens to destroy his tenuous new life."

"Love that the #Manifest preview for next week had Saanvi just like “hold my beer I’m gonna experiment on myself quick," one fan posted and another tweeted, "This show really has me being skeptical about the characters that are around the Stone family and Saanvi (where was she?). The dude with the bruises. Tj with Olive at the church."

Written by Laura Putney and Margaret Easley, the next episode is scheduled for a February 10 release on NBC.
