Manifest Theories: What Cal's Lifeboat Plan Is In Season 4

screenrant.com:

Cal has a plan for the Fight 828 passengers in Manifest season 4. The shocking debut of an older version of Cal came with the reveal that he knows what has to be done in the trails ahead. It seems that even though his role will be a bit different, Cal will remain instrumental to the passengers’ efforts to survive the Death Date.

At first, the passengers had cause for hope when Zeke got past his Death Date. Since then, though, certain discoveries have cast doubts on their chances of surviving. Pete and Kory dying alongside Jace in Manifest season 3 gave rise to the show’s Lifeboat theory. Ben and Saanvi’s Lifeboat theory postulates that all of the passengers must stay on the correct path in order for any of them to beat the Death Date. The idea that they have to keep so many people in line until June 2024 has made their journey even more difficult. However, theManifest season 3 finale promised a way forward when Cal suddenly showed up during Grace’s dying moments.

After disappearing and coming back five years older for an unknown reason, Cal knelt at his mother’s side and assured her that he knows what they have to do now. He hasn’t explained what that is yet, but the implication is that Cal’s disappearance has somehow allowed him to formulate a plan that will be key to Manifest season 4’s story. Since Cal has always had the strongest connection to the Callings, Ben, Saanvi, Zeke, and Michaela are sure to take his ideas – whatever they may be – to heart, while characters like Eagan and Adrian may be less willing to cooperate. Either way, there’s a good chance that adhering to Cal’s words will determine whether or not they save the Lifeboat and
