‘The Blacklist' season 3 spoilers: Liz may still be alive; Did she fake her own death?

"The Blacklist" season 3 recently saw Liz (Megan Boone) being killed off. However, some fans of the hit NBC series believe that she's still alive.

According to Design N Trend, there are some ongoing fan speculations that Liz faked her own death and said that she's planned it all along with Kaplan.

On TV Line's website, one fan @Laura wrote, "Does no one remember the hushed conversation she had with Mr. Kaplan (aka Kate) after the birth? They conspired to fake her death. This way, her daughter is safe and she can disappear and try to find out who wants her so badly. The only way to make it convincing is to not let Red (James Spader) or anyone else in on the secret. Mark my words, she faked her own death. And this also conveniently leaves Tom free for the spinoff."

Another fan @clyn124 seconded the previous statement by saying, "I noticed she didn't have any oxygen at one point when she was supposedly in respiratory distress. Then they put a mask on her and asked her to breathe before she went out. Kaplan's in on it with doc... He could have faked the flatline by hooking it up to a real dead person, might have been under the guerney. Red didn't want her going to a morgue. Kaplan said to Red he couldn't protect her, so I think she decided to take over and went to tell Liz that."

@Evelyn added, "I agree, I think Mr. Kaplan, as they call her, faked her own death and Red knows nothing. The nurse she brought in with the ventilator gave her something in her IV and Mr. Kaplan was escorting her stretcher off and appeared to be looking at Liz with the body bag open."

On the contrary, some fans also believe that Liz is already dead primarily because it seems impossible for the character to survive from what happened at that time.

"I don't see how it could be a ruse. Respiratory failure is as critical as it gets, and following that birth without immediate intervention, she would be goner, which is what happened."

"The Blacklist" season 3 airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on NBC.
