Biography[]
Before Flight 828[]
Evie is the best friend of Michaela and Lourdes. Together the three are known as the Three Amigas. One day in sixth grade a boy named Bobby Tufford calls tries to write slut on her locker after she comes to school in heels, she catches him and refuses to rat him out to Mrs. Springs and she waits for him outside of school to beat him up and call him a "bitch-monkey". ("S.N.A.F.U.")
Many years later as an adult Evie and Michaela go to a bar where she becomes very drunk and Michaela slightly intoxicated, Michaela is forced to drive them home which leads them to get in a car crash, killing Evie. Evie's parents Glen and Beverly come to blame Michaela for the accident, as does she, before her disappearance on Flight 828. Evie's heart comes to be donated to a boy named Carlos who keeps her picture as a reminder of what happened to him. ("Turbulence", "S.N.A.F.U.")
During Flight 828[]
At some point Beverly develops dementia and she repeatedly forgets that Evie had died, while at first Glen has to remind her eventually he lies about where Evie to not make Beverly mourn her over and over again. ("Turbulence", "S.N.A.F.U.")
After Flight 828[]
One day after her return Michaela has a meal with Lourdes and Jared Vasquez where they fondly reminisce over the good times that they had with Evie. Michaela goes and visits Glen and Beverly where she discovers the dementia. She then has a Calling where she hears Evie's heart. After helping Carlos get over the death of his uncle she learns about how Evie's heart is now his. ("Turbulence", "S.N.A.F.U.")
After Beverly's death in 2021, she is buried beside her daughter. While running through the cemetery, Michaela visits Beverly and Evie's graves. ("Go-Around")
On May 31, 2024, two days before the Death Date, Michaela is drawn by her final Calling to the addiction treatment center where her husband Zeke Landon had worked and meets Carlos again who now works as an intern at the facility. Carlos helps Michaela face her grief and guilt over Evie's death with Michaela admitting that she has begged for Evie to forgive her ever since Evie died even though she knows that's impossible. Standing on the roof of the facility, Michaela talks to her friend, knowing that Evie was never one to hold a grudge and if she was there would say "come on Mick, you dumb shit. Move on with your life." Michaela is finally able to forgive herself for Evie's death, telling Ben later that it was the hardest Calling that she ever had. ("Lift/Drag")
Trivia[]
- Like Ben forgiving Angelina Meyer for the murder of Grace lightened his heart to beat the Death Date, Michaela finally forgiving herself for Evie's death may have lightened her own heart to beat the Death Date.
