<p"He surprises me. Always. Whenever he talks he surprises me," Johnson remarked regarding Morris. He further revealed, "An interesting thing about surprising is Lamorne Morris literally just passed literally as of this morning on the 'New Girl' reunion. We thought we had it. We were all excited. It was going to be like a potentially a big long episode we were going to maybe do it on FOX again and Lamorne said no."
