Eleven knocks on a dying MirandaвЂ™s door, letting her glimpse the space station thatвЂ™s frequented her thoughts for years: вЂњI have found you nine times before, maybe 10, and IвЂ™ll find you again.вЂќ People invent fiction around their lives, talking to the dead and the lost and conceptualized. After Kirsten and Jeevan are separated, he can only describe her as вЂњjust someone I ended up with.вЂќ The words donвЂ™t come close to grasping the richness of their relationship, but theyвЂ™re the only words he has to delineate a new type of relationship.

When Frank and Jeevan struggle to take care of Kirsten, they resort to speaking in Hindi to shield her from their situationвЂ™s despair, although she can still clearly read their body language.

Arthur speaks callously about Miranda to his family in Spanish only later does Tyler ambiguously reveal she could understand him all along. Throughout its 10 episodes, Station Eleven preoccupies itself with gaps in language and communication. The show recognizes ClarkвЂ™s callous interpretation of the people aboard Gitchegumee 452 as a fiction in itself, a way to make himself feel better. Showrunner Patrick Somerville takes this idea and digs into it with dialogue that shifts between the lyrical and the plain, getting to the core of how people use storytelling to shape their reality. The message shines right there on the side of the Traveling SymphonyвЂ™s wagons, the line itself borrowed from Star Trek: Voyager: вЂњSurvival is insufficient.вЂќ Heady material, sure, but what sets the show apart is its refusal to make grandiose proclamations about resilience or how trauma paves the way for character development. John MandelвЂ™s source novel about a troupe of actors focuses on the cultural response to a post-apocalyptic event, casting art as an innate human characteristic to make sense of a deeply transformed world. Captain Hugo, named for the same hurricane that wrecked MirandaвЂ™s life, turns on the intercom.Д®mily St. She tells him a story-how her entire family died in Hurricane Hugo when a live wire floated in their house, electrocuting everyone but the girl sketching atop the kitchen counter. Miranda, in her plea to convince the planeвЂ™s pilot to not disembark, turns to the method of communication she knows best. Adrift on the tarmac, Gitchegumee Air Flight 452 has been infected already, itвЂ™s part of a ghost story.

But even as she sees her own ending written out, Miranda seeks to protect an old friend and her former loveвЂ™s child, currently safe in the isolated Severn City airport. Miranda Carroll (a showstopping Danielle Deadwyler) lays dying in Malaysia from the lethal Georgia Flu, a viral epidemic in the process of annihilating 99% of the worldвЂ™s population.
