why was she on the plane?

glad you asked. she was transporting a prisoner who was in danger because he was about to spill the beans on an Epstein-like conspiracy he uncovered while in jail

why was the prisoner in jail?

glad you asked. he murdered her fiancé.

best show on television.

two seasons ago, Angela Bassett’s character thwarted a pirate attack while on her honeymoon cruise

last season, she landed a passenger plane on the freeway after the pilot had been yeeted out of the cabin during a tornado of bees

get the backrest of your wheelchair adjusted every year or so to prevent your shoulders and neck from locking up
