Default Morgan LeFlay? (SPOILERS HERE)

So is Mo' still a ghost, or what? When she said "Ghost Pirate Hunter™" did she mean that she was a Ghost, and hunts pirates, or did she mean that she hunts ghost pirates?
I'm assuming the first one, since she walked away from the Voodoo Lady as a ghost.
While I'm pleased that she's happy with this ending, I can't help but feel upset that Guybrush didn't really seem to have any concerns, especially after all she did for him! I mean, for all he knows, she's still rotting at the crossroads!
Okay, sorry, just needed to rant about that.
Comments, ideas, etc.?

One thing about Morgan I wish was explained, or maybe I missed it... what happened to Morgan's body?

She'll be a villain of the second season, that's for sure.

That's badass, refreshing, and adorable.

I kinda hope she's not. I don't think she'll directly be out for Guybrush (again). But I hope their paths cross and she's a considerable thorn in his side - just not a direct nemesis for him.

Maybe she'll get her own spin-off! Who's with me?

Good lord, no.

I still didn't really care much for Morgan in this episode but I know she has a lot of fans so all the character emphasis AGAIN was to be expected. The scene where she calls Guybrush out for being a wuss is nice though. It's also kind of funny that as much as I severely dislike the voice chosen for her, it was a lot better when she was depressed for some reason. My friend and I were all "hmm, I think her voice actually fits now" but then when she got confident again it went back to normal and we were all "oh nevermind."

As for her being a ghost, I don't really think she was intended as a villain at the end (I mean if after all those scenes they're really going to pull that stunt I'd be pretty angry) though I do think she was portrayed rather carelessly. Even if I don't like the character I was hoping IF she came back to life she'd join the crew like Winslow, not something in between. Since I had all those "feel sorry for this character and like her please" cutscenes shoved in my face, I would have liked such an ending. Oh well.

I love the Monkey Island games. Morgan has been the most interesting addition to the series to me.

Strange after all the Monkey Island games, I still do not like Elaine.

The development of Morgan LeFlay its pretty sustancial and more so than any other character. She has risen as more important than Murray, Stan and gotten to the level of Lechuck and the Voodoo Lady. We get to know more of Morgan and her reputation, her admiration for Guybrush, later her cooperation and smartness into the plot by being involved in quests for adventure and lastly she dies and apparently comes back to life due to the voodoo lady.

She clearly appeared to be working with her and puts her on the level of principal antagonist and with unresolved plots to solve at the end of the game. Because we as players dont know whats her involvement and deals with the voodoo lady. And what part will Lechuck play in the voodoo lady and LeFlay's plan (if they are really working together).

I love the fact that Morgan is a ghost pirate hunter. In fact, I would have done the same if I were a screen writer after what happened in E4 so I'm pleased Telltales obviously planned this all along. This was the perfect way out of the love triangle while keeping Morgan alive to wreak havoc in the next episodes.

It's not so much that I'm a Morgan fan - I simply like the edge the character throws into the Guybrush-Elaine relationship (the duel over Guybrush in the 41 bar was just hilarious) and with the ghost hunter pirate set-up there is a lot of material for very good comedy in the following episodes. Morgan has always had her own agenda (the final scene shows this all too well) and I'm anticipating some very funny/awkward future encounters.

I believe it's just about money like the previous case (or powers, as she is a ghost now, meaning she may have Danny Phantom powers minus all the ghost mucus cliché), so she doesn't care the plan of Voodoo Lady.

I just want to see Voodoo Lady's villainous acts now. I believe seeing the face of Guybrush will automaticly make her switch sides. I KNOW it didn't work well in their first encounter, but still.

I think that's reading too much into it. Morgan is a pirate hunter. She delivered LeChucks remains (or parts) in exchange for being able to reenter the living world. Sounds like a simple and fair deal to me.

Yes, but, if I remember correctly, they weren't married until the end of Curse/beginning of Escape.

I agree entirely!! Surely Guybrush could've made some sort of "I hope Morgan's okay"-esque comment, and then Winslow could've said something slightly offensive or provocative about her... and it would have been funny... sigh...

In the end, I thought Morgan was better suited to Guybrush, too... as an aside. I also found her slightly annoying, like PecanBlue, however, I thought the chemistry between her and Guybrush was fantastic. They made a good team!

I am! I think she is definitely a good enough character to have her own game (and not "just because of her cleavage").

'Ghost Pirate Hunter LeFlay' reminds me of 'Ghost Pirate LeChuck'. Wonder if she will become even more obsessive and try to force Guybrush to be her undead husband

Personally I think it'll be more fun if Morgan simply agrees that having Guybrush as her undead husband is one of her aims, but she doesn't think she'll succeed, and certainly isn't go to force him.

Elaine won't believe her about for force. Not realising their is a major difference. Morgan actually loves Guybrush. LeChuck was obsessed.
