WARNING: Spoilers Ahead. If you haven't seen the Season 2 finale of Secrets and Lies, do not continue

We may finally know who killed Kate and have finally learned every single secret that the Warner family was keeping (and boy were there some doozies in there), but Secrets and Lies fans are now going to be left wondering just how a third season would play out for the show if it was renewed, since things ended on a cliffhanger which appeared to set things up for that possibility.

After Eric (Michael Ealy) learned that his father, John (Terry O'Quinn) was actually a bigamist and had an entire other family in Georgia (and his half-brother he never knew about was the one blackmailing him), he was dealt yet another stunner when Cornell (Juliette Lewis) brought him in to charge him for trying to kill his mother as a kid. However, that was just a setup for a confession from Kate's (Jordana Brewster) killer-Eric's sister, Amanda (Mekia Cox).

However, since the show is an anthology series, things wrapped up with the Warner family's story (Cornell: Confidential online showed that Eric wound up adopting Amanda's daughter with Neal-Eric Winter- and that he and Patrick-Charlie Barnett-mended fences after he was released from prison). But one person who's story may be continuing on is Cornell's, as the episode closed with her finding her daughter Jennifer once again relapsed on drugs in her home, her gun missing, and someone unexpected sneaking up behind her with her own gun-and a screen that cuts to black as three gunshots ring out.

Fans have since reacted on Twitter, wondering if the show set up season 3 for Cornell to potentially be the suspect in a murder, or if it could be a way for the show to actually make her someone even more unexpected-the victim.

However, if those same fans expect to get answers from EP Barbie Kligman, she's keeping quiet for now, though she has expressed to TVLine she'd be interested in a world where Cornell was the one who's murder was being investigated.

"There's a world where that could happen," she said. "The season would be about exploring all of the people who could have done it. And given how many enemies Cornell has made over the years, there certainly wouldn't be a shortage of suspects."

As for whether season 3 would happen, that is up in the air-and fans will be left wondering much like they did when it came to waiting for season 2 to air.

"It really just depends on where ABC is and what the numbers are," Kligman said.
