The rest of Twitter appears to be simply shocked and somewhat confused by the chopper overhead. Christian can't seem to believe it.

Everyone seems to have a theory but there is one which is prevailing...
prevnextThe Crossover
The most popular conclusion about the helicopter and who is in it seems to tie to the Fear the Walking Dead crossover which the producers promised at New York Comic Con. One character from either Fear the Walking Dead or The Walking Dead will appear on the other series.
Could this helicopter be carrying a Fear character into Walking Dead territory? The Internet seems to think it's not only possible but likely.
and oh guys that helicopter Rick saw:
an intentional prelude to the "Fear The Walking Dead" crossover? #TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/jwsV6J8T86

Some fans want to know, if this is a character from Fear, which one is it?
@colmandomingo @KimDickens @DebnamCarey You wouldn't know where the helicopter came from in the latest Walking Dead episode would you? ;) @WalkingDead_AMC @FearTWD #TheWalkingDead #helicopter

Twitter account Laur misses Lexa caught on to the fact that Negan was a high school teacher, like Travis of Fear the Walking Dead, and noted that in their theory.
Anyone still watching TWD who also watches Fear? Did you think anything when the helicopter appeared? Do you think it's coincidental that Negan was a HS teacher just like Madison?

prevIt may seem farfetched but the helicopter may have been carrying characters from Fear the Walking Dead who are due for a crossover with The Walking Dead's survivors. #thewalking ? pic.twitter.com/ftcSmRgHST
