Secrets are unraveled as the new ‘Manifest’ episode brings a fresh set of faces.

Now, what happens in the new episode? Will the show answer some of the most pertinent questions that fans have been waiting to know? 

Titled ‘Wingman’, the summary of the episode reads: "While in pursuit of criminals, Michaela is sidelined by devastating news; Ben teams up with a gifted 828er to aid a young teen; as Grace confronts ancient family wounds, Olive explores ancient mythology in hopes of helping all the passengers."

In a promo, Jared Vasquez asks: "Are there any passengers that know anything?" Ben then meets the gifted young man, Eagan Tehrani (played by Ali Lopez-Sohaili) — who has a photographic memory.

An actor and writer, Ali Lopez-Sohaili is known for his stints in 'Run it Back' (2016), 'Shakespeare Hashish and Ish' (2012) and 'Manifest' (2018).
