==== Noah's Ark ====
The callings of the passengers of Flight 828 lead to the conclusion that the world will come to and end on a specific date. And they believe that solving the callings to help people will also lead the way to salvation from the death date, from the apocalyptic end of the world scenario. In Season 4 Episode 19, Marko, one of the passenger's who had been in a coma and under testing by the Major, woke up from his coma repeating the word 'ковчег' (''kovcheg'') in Bulgarian, which can have two meanings: either "coffin" or "ark". Marko himself thought that the reference was to a coffin, and drew a picture of a coffin on a piece of paper, but later, seeing a picture of Noah's Ark, realized that this could also be the meaning. The theme of Noah's Ark as a means of salvation from the death date is tied into the storyline: the Major had been experimenting on a fragment of Noah's Ark that was covered in sapphire, and which Saanvi had thrown into a fissure that had opened up at the base of Storm King Mountain.
