When - and if - Hannibal's Will Graham recovers from his recent stab wound, the profiler will have a little explaining to do.

Where Was Abigail Hobbs? Bryan Fuller Explains Return Of Allegedly Dead 'Hannibal' Character

Viewers will never know how "Mizumono" would have ended if Will (Hugh Dancy) hadn't tipped Hannibal (Mads Mikkelsen) off, but series creator Bryan Fuller has taken the time to explain why Will placed that fateful call to the cannibalistic psychologist.

"Well, there are several possible reasons, and we won't know exactly which one it was until Season 3," Fuller teased, according to TV Line. "But I think Will is feeling very conflicted about everything concerning Hannibal Lecter. And so, in that moment, he could have been calling Hannibal Lecter for one of two reasons: One was to warn him to get out of dodge, so his partner in crime could escape. Two was he wanted Hannibal Lecter to leave before Jack Crawford arrived, because he feared for Jack Crawford's safety. We very intentionally wanted Will's actions to be open to interpretation."
