Telltale Texas Hold'Em The boy just ain't right :) What's he going to do next?

I would never treat a real life child this way but since it's a game it's different.

Does anyone else out there find it hilarious that Duck is so stupid? I want to like the kid but I'm just having such a hard time. The writers can't get rid of him Duck is single handed the comic relief in the video game.

I have to wonder who the creators of the game based his character on in real life. They seem to just have it out for the poor kid.

At the beginning his own father (Kenny) freely admits that his off spring is such a block head not even the end of world phases him. "He makes up for it in enthusiasm" that's like saying in the bathroom Duck sometimes points up at his face instead of down at the urinal cake...!

After that Duck causes his first kill and is not even noticeably sad.... He decides to start up the tractor he was playing on and run over poor Shawn I swear he was smiling at one point.

The apple does not fall far from the tree since Kenny can't even tell Herschel that he's sorry his son Duck ran over Shawn with the tractor.

I can't believe on the Farm that the game writers did not have Duck peeing on the electric fence. What a missd opportunity. All I can say is thank goodness Duck was not with Mark and Lee during the tractor scene with the arrows. Duck might have decided to run over Lee and Mark then drive the tractor in to a ditch.

Moving along Duck proves he has ADHD at the dinner table when despite Lee's best effort to say hey your eating a person Duck continues to eat Mark's leg. What's worse is Duck noticably wants to keep eating Mark. Everyone is like OMG and Duck is there with fork is mouth about to scream "Pass over those 2 meatballs please"

I don't know. I just can't get on the side of poor old Duck.

What do yur guys think.. Is Duck gonna cause another death in Episode 3? Perhaps they will head back to the drug store and Duck can eat a tube of Preparation H? Duck could root through Carly's purse and find her secret toy she really needs those batteries for. The possibilities are hilarious and endless.

You never know Duck could figure out that since a zombie bites kills a human Duck could make the connection that if he eats or bites a zombie it will bring the zombie back to life.

Anyway what do you guys think Duck will do or cause in episode 3??

I have a feeling that Duck's going to be around for a while. Hopefully he'll pull off some stunt that saves Lee's life.

I'm guessing you need more?

Duck is a kid = He's going to get in trouble, he's going to make mistakes BECAUSE he's a kid. Just because there is a zombie apocalypse doesn't magically change that. Sure Clem is smarter and more mature but that's pretty rare in children their ages (although she did taste a salt lick which equals a kid move).

Duck taking the blame for the tractor incident is nuts to me. Why isn't Shawn getting the blame? Shawn is the adult who let a kid play on a tractor without supervision.

As far as the dinner table scene. It's pretty often that when a child is into something they're really into it and sometimes they need something like a snap of the fingers in front of their face, or a clap, or even a removal of whatever it is to get their attention away from what they're doing.

Duck get's a lot of undeserved flack which has caused me to go pro Duck. I hope the little guy makes it to the end.

Duck is just here to drive Kenny. Then drive him over the edge.

Unless you're playing the other side, then it'll be Lily that turns against you.

Duck was an assasin before the zombies came, and he was dedicated to the job so he killed shaun and made it look like an accident. But we know better next episode you battle him to the death he has black belt in martial arts.

There was a guy at work who used to make his boy dig trenches in his yard when the kid got out of line or did stupid things. Needless to say if Duck was his kid that trench would circle the world. Twice.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say most kids aren't brought up that way.

Who says he doesn't notice? Maybe he chooses to stay enthusiastic in spite of everything.
