It seems like one of my predictions from two episodes ago is starting to appear correct. Jared knows Tamara and her brother, Billy, are X'ers, somehow, I guess his rank of a detective is beginning to hold true, and also that the bar is a hangout of X'ers, altogether, I imagine, so due to his conversation with Michaela, he's deciding to go on the path of proving his worth to her by embedding himself within the deeper ranks of the X'ers, and take them down from the inside. It's a decent plan, I'll give him that, but problems are most likely going to arise to create and add more drama. We'll have to wait and see. Then there's Ben, going over to the dark side. The ending was pretty cool, I admit. But the best part of the episode was undoubtedly Ben's obligatory "dramatically taking off his glasses" moment, the scene where he drove up to where the car accident happened, opened the door, left it open, like a boss, dramatically stared a second or two, then dramatically took off his glasses, in a swift motion. And that wasn't the only time he did it in this episode. You are too kind, writers, to bless us with more than one of those moments. We are undeserving of your generosity. It can never be a Manifest episode without at least one of them. After all, it's what we're watching each episode to see.
