On June 1, 2015, Morgan made his first public appearance since the crash, in an interview with Matt Lauer on "Today". In that interview, he appeared lucid but said that "I have my good days and my bad days, where I forgot things," and that he also gets recurring headaches. He also stated that he had no memory of the crash. Morgan made a surprise appearance at the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards on September 20, and was greeted with a standing ovation. He then hosted an episode of "Saturday Night Live" on October 17, 2015. On the November 3, 2016 episode of "Conan", Morgan said that he was no longer angry about the collision and had forgiven Roper. The driver of the Walmart truck, Roper, accepted a plea deal in which he pled guilty but would serve no jail time. Morgan's 2017 Netflix standup special "Staying Alive" joked about Walmart and the lawsuit, while detailing his hospitalization, rehab and recovery.
