How to handle Lees past?
 

Personally I hope we get an interactive flashback where we discover more about Lee and how he killed the senator. Kind of like. He starts telling the story, we progress through a scene of before the apocalypse. Some sweet little breakfast scene with his wife. After a few dialogues Lee's like "Hey I'm off to work now." He's all suited up and ready to go. After a while as he drives to work he realizes he's left something at home. A portfolio maybe? So he returns home. When we arrive we bear witness to our wife and the senator going at it with a bit of ES EE EX. Nothing to graphic just noises from behind a door. Skip to Lees shocked face, then instantly to his rage face. Then we kill the man with our bare hands. Pressing buttons to do it. In the meanwhile Lees wife has called the police. Lees not running, he's exhausted now. He gets taken into custody before switching back to the survivors to finish off with a recap and a couple of question answers.

How do you want it to play out?

i dont think we will get a FB, i think you have to save carley to find out more about lee's past, seeing as she is the only one aside from larry who has mentioned it.

EDIT i just rememberd that lee has a sort of flash back in herschels barn, so a flash back may actualy be possible

I think it might be kind of interesting if Lee's past ends up being determined by his actions in the first 4 episodes... Ie: If you play Lee as a generally good guy, you find out he did what he did for noble reasons. If you play him as a badass, you find out he did it for vengeance.

ahhh. thats proberly the best theory i have heard man! you may even give telltale idears to do that if they aint done it already! =]

it still has not been clarified that lee really did kill the senator. It could have been an accident. It could have been self defense (perhaps the senator was really the bad guy!). I would also like to see if it turns out as the last poster mentioned, that Lee's past is determined by the players actions throughout the game.

i think he is right i think it will come down to that! if you spare lifes and that, you kill him in a simple self defence accident, if your a badass you simply beat he to death ( in self defence )

save carly:

when she was talking to lee going to the farm, you have 3 options about it

i suppose this will choose which way it goes ?
