What Happened To The Major In Manifest

Okay, let’s talk about a character on Manifest who stirred up more trouble than a toddler with a permanent marker: The Major. Remember her? She was all about figuring out what was going on with the 828ers, but her methods were…well, let’s just say she wasn’t winning any “World's Best Boss” awards.

Initially, she appeared as this almost mythical figure, pulling strings from behind the scenes. Her real name was Kathryn Fitz, and she was a military scientist obsessed with understanding the 828 phenomenon.

The Major's Mad Science Adventures

The Major believed the 828 passengers held the key to unlocking some kind of powerful weapon or technology. Think Bond villain, but with a lab coat instead of a cat. She was convinced the Callings weren’t just random visions, but something that could be controlled and weaponized.

She experimented on passengers, trying to decipher the mystery behind the Callings. This is where things got really ethically questionable, even for a TV show. Basically, think of her as the reason everyone was constantly stressed out.

She Tried to Control the Callings!

The Major was relentless in her quest to weaponize the Callings. She kidnapped and experimented on various 828 passengers including Erika Burness. It was a desperate, misguided attempt to control something that, frankly, was way beyond her control.

She believed that by understanding and controlling the Callings, she could give the military an unprecedented advantage. Imagine the power of knowing the future! But like all power-hungry folks, she didn’t stop to consider the moral implications.

So, What Actually Happened To Her?

Here comes the interesting part! The Major's reign of terror came to an abrupt and rather...unceremonious end. Remember Zeke Landon, the guy who came back from the dead and became super empathic?

Yeah, *that* Zeke. Well, he ended up having a Calling connected to The Major. This Calling led him to her location.

In a twist of fate (or maybe a twist of Calling?), Zeke, trying to save Michaela, accidentally caused The Major's death. It was a total accident, but hey, sometimes karma comes in mysterious packages.

A Sticky End

The way The Major died was also quite something. Let's just say it involved a struggle, a fall, and some unfortunate timing. Her death was swift and unexpected, cutting short her manipulative schemes.

Her death didn't immediately solve all the problems, of course. It just meant that a new set of challenges emerged. But it did remove a major obstacle for the 828ers who had been facing persecution and mistreatment at her hands.

While her actions were undoubtedly villainous, you almost felt a little bad for her in the end. She was so driven by her ambition, so convinced she was doing the right thing, that she completely lost sight of her humanity.

"She had an insatiable hunger for power, but she was, ultimately, flawed,"

The Aftermath

The Major's demise didn't exactly bring peace and harmony to the world of Manifest. But it did show that even the most powerful and manipulative individuals can be taken down by the unpredictable forces at play.

It also served as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked ambition and the importance of ethical considerations in scientific pursuits. So, rest in peace (or, well, maybe not!), The Major. You certainly left your mark on the 828 saga.
