Warning: Article contains spoilers for Fool Me Once

Author Harlan Coben has addressed what happened to the 'guy in helicopter' lesson after Fool Me Once fans become concerned with his whereabouts.

Fool Me Once remains Netflix's number one TV show after it dropped on the platform on New Year's Day.

The series follows grieving wife Maya Stern (Michelle Keegan) who is trying to come to terms with the murder of her husband, Joe Burkett (Richard Armitage).

After the funeral, Maya installs a nanny cam to keep an eye on her two-year-old daughter Lily (Thea Taylor-Morgan).

When taking a closer look at the footage, the mum is shocked to see her husband who was filmed on camera in the house, playing with Lily.

There's a lot to unpack in the action-filled series, but one of the most memorable scenes sees Maya making a living by using her ex-military expertise to teach people how to fly a helicopter.

During one helicopter lesson though, she travels with a passenger who was talking about his upcoming dentist appointment - that was until the lesson takes an unexpected turn.

Maya decides to cut the lesson short after she abruptly lands the plane in a forest after spotting a car she believes has been following her.

The mum uses her inner-Terminator skillet and chases the suspect through the trees, before landing the aircraft, dashing off and leaving her poor pupil in a field.

Commenting on the bizarre scene, one viewer tweeted: "Why is Maya following a car with a helicopter, with a student?"

"Fool me once is really good but the helicopter chase and the kids doing their own investigations is wild lol," another added.

"As much as I like Fool Me Once. I really doubt a deployed helicopter pilot would have a nice peach gell manicure," someone else joked.

Addressing the scene is the author of the novel of the same name Harlan Coben.

Taking to X (Twitter) he revealed what happened to the helpless helicopter pupil.

He said: "Non-Spoiler Alert: The guy in the helicopter made his dentist appointment. He had two cavities and was told to floss more often. #FoolMeOnce @netlix."

"Oh thank goodness, I was absolutely worried about what happened to him! Thanks for updating us!" one viewer replied, as another said: "Hahaha we were saying wonder if he made the appointment."

"Thanks for not leaving any loose ends. I was so worried about him that I couldn't sleep last night," a third added.

All eight episodes of Fool Me Once are available to watch on Netflix now.
