Spoiler Alert for 'Money Heist' aka 'La Casa de Papel' Season 2 Part 4 Episodes 1-8

One thing that the Spanish crime-drama 'Money Heist' aka 'La Casa de Papel' does best is leaving fans at the edge of their seats after those shocking moments of suspense. Season 4 ended at a major cliffhanger and it makes you wonder if the Professor (Álvaro Morte) will die.

Leaving him battling between life and death, inspector Alicia Sierra (Najwa Nimri) pulls a gun on him and leaves viewers thinking: How will the Professor escape?

What's worrisome is that he seems to have no personal connection with the badass pregnant cop, unlike his romantic relationship with the former inspector Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituño).

Fans are pretty bummed and one popular Reddit theory even says that Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó) might be the only survivor in the end. "I just binged all three seasons over the weekend and was wondering why Tokyo was the narrator during the series and not the professor or other," one fan wrote and another said, "I guess it was because at the end only Tokyo will survive so she was narrating the incidents."

Another Twitter user said, "#Spoiler soooo ya see in #MoneyHeist that scene where Denver and Moscow are talking to the Professor about Juanito and it turned out to be an afterlife moment with Berlin and Oslo, does that mean Denver, Helsinki and the Professor will die?"

One confirmed, "Hello guys. You still think I'm lying? Professor is gonna die in the end. #MoneyHeist." A few spoiler-filled jokes are also doing the rounds, such as: "If you spoil Money Heist season 4 you should die, just like the professor dies #MoneyHeist."

However, one viewer has hopes that the Professor may still be alive. "Because somebody had to be the narrator. It couldn't be the Professor because it would destroy the element of surprise when he suddenly comes up with a new idea. They wanted us to admire him (like the gang did), to guess what he thinks or plans to do, and this was only possible if we looked 'from the outside'." 

Meanwhile, one viewer wants to see more action between Alicia Sierra and the Professor in the next season. "Why does everyone want Agent Sierra to just die? Can't wait to see the showdown with her, Lisbon and the Professor," the tweet read.

While there is no confirmation on whether we will get to watch another season of 'Money Heist', the final scene only confirms the possibility of another one. For now, if you haven't watched the show yet, binge-watch the eight episodes on Netflix right away.
