NBC's 'Manifest' has been following the aftermath of the sudden re-appearance of Montego Air Flight 828 which went missing almost five and a half years ago. And when the passengers arrived, they were subjected to some strange voices in their heads that they began to interpret as the "callings". While some of the passengers have assumed there to be a divine intervention in the "callings", others have been trying to reason with the help of science.

This is where the Jeff Rake-created show, starring Josh Dallas, Athena Karkanis, Melissa Roxburgh, and Parveen Kaur, finds its theme split into two halves. However, there is yet a third theme that deals with the collateral damage caused by the plane's sudden disappearance.
