The Conspiracy of MANIFEST (a slight SPOILER, but only to set up a Fan-Theory/Elseworld)

Tweet

You know NBC's *MANIFEST* (the first two seasons showing (and now the third) on NETFLIX)---it's the story of 'the passengers of Flight 828,' a plane that was flying through a storm, blinked out of existence for 5-and-a-half years & blinked right back into existence with all the passengers not even aware that time passed for everybody else. The passengers keep getting these crazy hallucinations--each usually coupled with the vague instruction to "SAVE 'SOMEBODY' (HIM or HER or THEM... like you see in the picture)"--which they call "Callings." Each of The Callings helps The Passengers 'save somebody,' but they're usually 'saving themselves' from a situation that 'following The Calling' puts them in! In the latest episode I've seen so far (trying to limit myself to about 1 episode a day), the two passengers with the strongest Callings have started to see a trio of Looming Shadows ... spooky ... I guess I am wondering what your theory is/would-be---are The Callings a force for Good? or are they a sneaky Force for evil, luring The Passengers into a sense of false security?
