The team might have to choose a new leader in "Scorpion" season 3.

The new season of "Scorpion" is coming in a few weeks. Ahead of its release date, fans are already worried that one of the core characters in the series might be killed off.

There are speculations that the new season will see the end of Elyes Gabel's character, Walter. According to reports, an action-packed episode in the upcoming season will leave Walter dead, forcing the rest of the team to move forward with their future missions without him.

Walter is one of the most fan-favorite characters in the series, so fans believe that taking him out at this point in the story will not do the series any good. This is especially since his romantic storyline with Paige has just started to unfold. On the other hand, fans wonder who among the characters will be worthy enough to take over the leadership if he really dies.

Fans also speculate that if Walter will die next season, then it is possible that he will finally reveal his true feelings for Paige. However, rumor has it that personal and professional issues will come in between them, causing their budding romance to end before it even starts.

While rumors about the death of Walter continue to swirl around, fans who refuse to believe the rumors speculate that the character will not die but will just disappear next season.

"Scorpion" season 3 premieres on October 3 on CBS.
