We can hope for Morgan to come swooping in at the most opportune time to save Alicia, Strand and other characters from Virginia, only to explain later that every single blood vessel inside his head burst, leading to his gross red eyes.
The character that now has possession of Morgan’s stuff delivered a warning that was ominous for all the reasons.
Or that he stumbled into a food coloring processing plant and fell into a vat eyeball-first.
He went looking for Morgan’s body and didn’t find it, and though he almost definitely assumes that Morgan is a walker now, fans still have a sliver of hope that such villainous assumptions are destined to be thwarted.
