Plot[]

Ben and Vance are in Cuba to follow up on the tailfin. Upon touching it, Ben is thrown backward, which is caught on camera phone by a local boy. A Cuban police office sees the video and requests that Ben duplicate the incident, but Vance arrives to stop it. Ben and Vance's associate get on a plane to escape, leaving Vance behind as he is apprehended by the DGI. Michaela and Zeke are on their honeymoon in Costa Rica when Cal discovers a recent calling he's experienced with Michaela and Ben is of 828 passenger Angelina Meyer. Upon investigation, Michaela realizes Angelina is being held captive by her parents, religious missionaries living in Costa Rica who believe their daughter is possessed. She rescues Angelina and Ben's plane is diverted to Costa Rica to rescue the group. Saanvi is now running a private medical practice, but is soon revealed to be following 828 leads in a back room. A woman visits the 129th precinct and talks to Jared, revealing she hasn't heard from her mother Kathryn Fitz with him unaware of what happened to her. Ben and Michaela discuss the meaning of the found tailfin, now strongly believing that Flight 828 exploded and killed everyone, but they were resurrected for still-unknown reasons. Jace, Pete, and Kory are then shown emerging from the now-thawed lake and coming back to life.
