Yes i think so..K2

Well, his face is never shown, I think. When the shot is heard, we only see a man whose face is obscured fall to the ground, and then he is dragged, once again facedown, behind some rocks. There could really only be one reason for obscuring his face, and that's if the writers/producers want to disguise the identity of the body for a later "surprise".

My hunch? I think Daniel is alive and the guy who is shot is his friend Tyler. My reasons: (1) It's a pretty big stretch that Emily would have Daniel killed; he's innocent, even though he is part of the Grayson family. (2) Tyler, while vacationing with the Graysons, has been stirring up trouble for Daniel AND Emily, so it seems to me he has an ulterior motive, what with him getting Daniel back into drinking again and him being just overall shady (3) Tyler has been borrowing suits from Daniel (see: the episode where Tyler borrows a suit from Daniel for when he goes to intern at Mr. Grayson's company) and it's pretty doable that Tyler would be wearing a suit that looks or fits Daniel.

i think he will.
