'A Million Little Things' Fans Want to Know: Who Is Barbara Morgan?

Now that we now have gotten to the ground of why Jon finished suicide, there may be nonetheless one 'A Million Little Things' mystery to remedy. Who is Barbara Morgan exactly? Here are the entire clues we now have.

The new ABC sequence, A Million Little Things, has been holding audience guessing ever because the first episode revealed that the ostensible star of the show — Ron Livingston's Jon Dixon — is the good friend whose suicide upsets the order of his tight-knit pal group. And, no faster had audiences discovered the solution to that thriller ahead of they had been introduced with another: just who within the heck is Barbara Morgan?

Jon turned out to be engaged in some risky dealings resulting in a staggering $18 million of debt and the imminent seizure of the relatives's property. But up to he became out no longer to be the individual his loved ones concept they knew, it seems they have been right about him having a plan B to be certain everyone was looked after after he was gone. The shrewd businessman had arrange a believe and named 4 non-family individuals because the beneficiaries.

We already know the primary three really well: his absolute best pals Eddie, Rome, and Gary. But the fourth, Barbara Morgan, has been a mystery. Gary put it in combination that the skyline painting Jon gave him while he was once in chemo was painted by a B. Morgan, and in the end tracked down the artist's closing known cope with.

The girl who replied the door is recognized handiest as Mrs. Nelson. And but, there may be plenty explanation why to imagine this thriller girl (performed by way of Sopranos superstar Drea de Matteo) is Barbara.

We do not know Mrs. Nelson's first identify but...

While we know she's married to a person named Mitch, Mrs. Nelson's first identify hasn't been revealed, so there is a possibility Barbara Morgan was once her maiden name and, for causes that experience but to be printed, she pretended to Gary that she wasn't her. 

She no doubt is aware of Jon from faculty.

The writers have long past to some beautiful great lengths to make Mrs. Nelson sketchy. She conned her method into the Dixon area by way of pretending to have met Sophie on the charity 5K they ran in Jon's honor. But a have a look at Jon's old Harvard memorabilia reveals Mrs. Nelson used to be part of Jon's circle again in the day. Plus, Mrs. Nelson has the envelope containing the memory card Jon used to record a video message for Barbara.

If Barbara = Mrs. Nelson, there are theories about why she's hiding...

The show is indubitably telegraphing lovely laborious that Mrs. Nelson and Barbara are one and the same, but why would she hide that truth from Gary and the Dixon kin? One idea is that Jon — who informed Ashley "I"m now not the person everyone thinks I am" — has a secret family stashed away. One person on reddit even suggests Jon is still alive and posing as Mitch Nelson.

"His voice sounds in point of fact familiar when you listen his voice on the finish of the episode," wrote Oceanta. However, showrunner DJ Nash has said Jon is for sure dead, and such a move would likely upset viewers as an unforgivable manipulation.

Even if Jon didn't fake his death, that doesn't rule out his having a secret family on the side. Mrs. Nelson has a teenage son, as revealed in the voicemail message from her husband. Some fans believe Walking Dead alum Chandler Riggs, who showed up briefly in the hospital waiting room in "The Rosary" as PJ, could be that son.

After all, it would be odd for him to only be in this tiny blip of a scene, and sure enough he's been booked for at least two episodes, with the possibility of more in Season 2. He even kinda resembles Jon a little, and his conversation with Rome at the hospital revealed he's definitely gone through something heavy recently.

Mrs. Nelson and Delilah will meet in the finale

Whether Mrs. Nelson is Barbara Morgan or a red herring, we can in all probability learn in Thursday's finale when Jon's widow, Delilah, goes to Mrs. Nelson's house for solutions. If Jon in point of fact isn't the person his friends thought he was once — hell, even the person we the audience know him to be — it kind of feels lovely clear this woman has some insights to be offering.

Watch the A Million Little Things finale the next day, February 28, at 8 p.m. on ABC.
