I have been trying to figure out how they will make this fit into the timeline, and for the life of me, I just can’t figure it out.
ZA + 2 months: Morgan and Dwayne are still at home, getting a grasp of what is happening. They meet Rick.
ZA + approx 1 year: Morgan is crazy, at home. He has lost Dwayne. He makes a crazy comment about seeing people who wear the faces of dead people.
ZA + approx 1.5 years: Morgan has left home and is tracking Rick. He has already met up with Eastman and is now Zen-Morgan. He has been with the group ever since.
Fear is currently at approx ZA + 6 months and S4 filming is taking place in San Antonio (filming starts today).
So did Dwayne get eaten by his mother almost immediately after Rick left? Then Morgan would have had to immediately make a B-line for Texas to meet up with the Clarks. In a post-ZA world, it would take what 2 or 3 months to get to West Texas from Georgia? And again, 2 or 3 months to get back?
The timing just doesn’t make sense. And Morgan is not just making an appearance. He is joining the cast of Fear.
On Talking Dead, Hardwick quoted Scott Gimple as saying that Morgan's arc in Season 8 positions him for his switch to Fear The Walking Dead. So it looks like Fear The Walking Dead will have a bit of a time jump and we'll continue to see Morgan's story in chronological order.
