Will Zeke and Michaela live happily ever after? And what about Jared?

When everyone expected Zeke to die, the road ahead for Michaela and Jared to finally get together again seemed clear. Even Zeke himself expected it and basically told Jared to take care of the woman they both loved once he was gone.

But now that Zeke has defied his death date – what happens? Sure, Michaela loves him, but despite that fact, she only really agreed to marry him because she thought it was his dying wish. Is she ready to really commit to their second chance?

And what about Jared? Though we’ve seen him try to move on from Michaela, he’s failed miserably at doing so at least twice. And while he seems like the sort of decent guy who wouldn’t begrudge the woman he loved happiness with someone else, so what would losing the chance to be with her yet again do to him?

This is all, of course, separate and apart from the larger question: Is it time for Manifest to move on from this triangle? Can we even still call it a triangle? And if it’s not, should the show let Jared actually find happiness elsewhere?
