As a refresher, Episode 9, “Rendezvous,” ended with Michaela, Saanvi, Eagan and Thomas lastly discovering the Omega Sapphire. However earlier than they might determine what to do with it, Eagan swiped the dear gemstone and ran. Whereas he was packing in his motel room, he was attacked by a thriller one that stole the sapphire and bolted. Earlier than the tip credit rolled, Michaela, Cal, Saanvi, and Ben had a Calling of Zeke, Jared, Olive, and different family members on the aircraft. They had been caught of their seats as lava spewed round them and a volcano erupted out the window. The Calling helped the group notice that the Loss of life Date isn’t only for passengers…it’s for everybody. *GASP*

The midseason finale wastes no time letting us know who stole that sapphire. We see Angelina (ugh!) strutting down a metropolis avenue with a bloody head and the stone glowing in her hand. With every step she takes, the sidewalk cracks behind her, foreshadowing the dire destruction she’s able to unleashing.

We minimize to Zeke and Michaela waking up, and the cherry blossoms above them are gone. As a substitute, Michaela sees ash over Zeke’s head, and says, “I assumed saving 191 souls was overwhelming, but when the destiny of the lifeboat determines the destiny of billions of individuals, then what will we do?” Zeke says, “No matter we now have to,” and the 2 share a second extra treasured than that freaking sapphire. In the meantime, Eden asks Ben to see her mommy, Eagan is within the emergency room, and Cal is in a hospital mattress at dwelling coughing. Chaos!

With Cal’s well being quickly declining, nobody desires to go away his aspect, however he begs his household to snap again into motion earlier than it’s too late. “Guys I’m dying, however who else is? All of you. You need to preserve making an attempt. What if the sapphire can save me? Mother would need us to maintain pushing — to maintain combating,” he says. They get to work, however Zeke (who’s nonetheless recovering from being shot within the leg by Angelina’s dad) hangs again and helps preserve Cal comfy.

As Zeke units up previous household pictures for Cal, Michaela finds a triggering certainly one of her and Evie. “What fool downs a double Manhattan and will get within the automobile and drives? It’s unforgivable,” she says, however her rant is minimize quick when she will get a name from Detective Vasquez, who’s lastly working carefully with 828ers on the Registry, and nonetheless in a no-strings-attached relationship with Drea. Jared and Michaela head to the hospital to fulfill Eagan, the place they be taught Angelina has the stone. Michaela has a Calling of a darkish angel that shatters into stained glass, then she finds Angelina’s prayer guide, which reads, “Behold, I ship an Angel earlier than thee, to maintain thee in the best way, and to carry thee into the place which I’ve ready.”

On the Stone home, Ben will get a Calling of Grace, who says she misses him and must see Eden. With barely a second thought, Ben takes Eden to Grace’s gravesite, the place she seems in a Calling once more. She advises him to offer Eden again to Angelina, however earlier than he has an opportunity to argue, he notices Grace’s eyes are the unsuitable shade. Seems that’s not Grace in any respect, it’s Angelina simulating a faux Calling utilizing the sapphire. As soon as she stops, she grabs Eden and pulls a gun on Ben. Ben talks her down and suggests they let Eden select who she desires to be with. (OK, certain!) After actually standing in between them and weighing her choices, Eden yells, “I need to be with my daddy!” and runs to him. Angelina tries to shoot Ben, however he escapes, so she grabs sapphire and screams on the high of her lungs; an motion that causes passengers throughout the nation to shriek concurrently.

With the sapphire’s energy to create faux Callings, Angelina can singlehandedly sink the lifeboat, so the Stone crew splits as much as observe her down and save humanity. Ben and Michaela head to Angelina’s old fashioned, Olive and the just lately returned TJ look at an Egyptian papyrus for clues, and Saanvi and Vance name Dr. Gupta for assist.

Whereas everybody’s off making an attempt to save lots of the world, Cal remains to be in mattress, actually dying. However Zeke is true by his aspect, being cute as hell. He spends the day serving to Cal zoom via his bucket checklist with out leaving the home. He brings Jeter’s final Yankees recreation to the lounge, units up a mini Louvre, and performs Monopoly at Cal’s request. Flashbacks remind us that Cal pulled out Monopoly forward of Zeke’s Loss of life Date, and for those who suppose you want tissues now, simply wait. “That concern you’re feeling? I may also help you. I can take all of it away…Why else did I come again with this skill?” Zeke tells Cal after seeing his ache. (However extra on this later.)

Michaela and Ben discover Angelina in a church the place lava is flowing via the ground. She’s praying beneath a picture of a faceless angel, saying she’s the chosen one. After seeing a gaggle of kids trapped among the many lava, Michaela grabs her gun and tells Angelina it’s over. “It will likely be quickly, for all of you. God has chosen me…I’m an archangel despatched to carry vengeance upon the evil and to guide the righteous to salvation,” Angelina replies. Ben tells her she’s simply one other unhappy, misplaced, lonely member of the lifeboat awaiting judgement, and as Michaela tightens her grip on the gun, Angelina makes use of the sapphire to trick her with a false Calling. Angelina makes a picture of Evie seem earlier than Michaela, which flusters her a lot that she drops her gun into the lava.

Whereas Angelina is harnessing the facility of the sapphire, Cal’s scar pattern in Saanvi’s lab glows blue, as does the scar on his arm. Cal remembers Henry telling him he’s a dragon and makes use of his powers to create a Calling of his personal for Angelina. The 2 seem on the aircraft collectively and Cal tells her she’s destroying any likelihood they’ve of saving the lifeboat, however she doesn’t care and tries to toss him out of the aircraft. She makes use of the sapphire to create an think about of Grace, who urges Cal to surrender his combat. Cal sees via the stunt, grabs the sapphire in Angelina’s hand, and fights for it till it shatters. When Cal comes out of the calling, he realizes his time is up and asks Zeke to name his household so he can say goodbye. When Zeke overhears Olive saying she is aware of Cal is “the dragon” who can save humanity, he flashes again to his personal dying day and remembers how Cal did every thing he may to assist him survive. (We all know the place that is going, Zeke. And we don’t prefer it!)

Again on the church, Ben and Michaela save the hostages, and when Ben goes again in to save lots of Angelina he sees she’s been crushed by particles. Authorities raid Saanvi and Vance’s lab by order of Dr. Gupta, and all 828 passengers are being locked up till additional discover.

As Cal fades, Zeke makes the heartbreaking choice soak up his concern, ache, and terminal analysis. He locations his hand on Cal’s and because the life drains out of him and Cal’s most cancers enters his physique, he calls Michaela and says goodbye. “We had been all the time meant to be collectively, Mick. I used to be given a second likelihood at life. I didn’t know why, nevertheless it was you, Mick. It was you,” Zeke says. “It was my second likelihood to make up for all of the ache and harm I induced. And now I lastly get to do this…I’ll see you once more, beneath the celebs,” he says weakly. The sicker Zeke grows, the extra life beams from Cal. Ultimately, Cal wakes up and Ben clutches his wholesome physique whereas Michaela sobs over Zeke.

As if (completely!?) dropping Zeke and practically the entire 828 passengers sharing a cell wasn’t disastrous sufficient, the episode ends with Angelina rising from the rubble, reaching into the lava for a shard of sapphire, and having it burned into her hand. The ultimate shot reveals her strolling via a cemetery as lava burns the Earth round her. “Blessed are they who starvation and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be stuffed,” she says as screams fill the air. Y-I-Ok-E-S! We’d like Season 4, Half 2 instantly! And when you’re at it, give us Zeke again!!
