So we're not doing this.

I just hope it'll be enough.

Saanvi: Listen, I discovered

something in Cal's blood.

It's a marker, and it wasn't

there before the plane,

and it turns out

that I have it, too.

Did you get a calling, buddy,

that told you to come here?

-He's coming.

-Cal.

He's almost here.

I was hiking.

There was a blizzard.

I had a vision

of you.

I heard you.

I-I saw you.

I fell in

some sort of cave.

I was burning

literally everything I had

trying to stay warm.

It was like you were giving me

your strength,

willing me to live.

How is it possible

you're here?

What year

did you leave?

2017.

Zeke,

it's 2018.

Stay away

Sure, we'll stay away

-Uh-huh.

I suppose your pilot friend

had no control

over the airplane

he stole.
