No of course not! I thought it was implicit that this was standard behavior for them, to go out of town and leave her at home. Perhaps accusing them of being bad parents is a stretch but based on my interpretation, they were lackadaisical.

Just waiting for the ending that Clem and her mother reunite. It will be a Tearjerker and a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming. And then she ask who you are, Clem explains everything and says that Lee is a murderer and a shocked Mother shoots you in the Head.

I have a feeling Clementine will end up like Carl: a little more world weary, but very disturbed.

I really hope her mother is dead. Cause I want Lee to have Clem to his self. If you know what I mean..haha

On another note, if she's alive. She might be a good love interest. I mean Lee and Clem's father look similar. SO similar Clem mistakes Lee for her dad. Maybe I can maneuver Lee back into Clem's Mom's life to replace her dead zombie husband

I understood from the next-coming episode trailer that we will finally not be looking for Clem's parents.

We are investigating a huge city, right? There is no way to lose time on looking for someone who is probably gone a long time ago in this mess full of dangers at every corner.

Clem's parents won't surface anymore, unless as walkers, because you need Clem until the end of the game.

Plausible? Yes, and it would be a great move on telltale's part because of the dramatic tension it would bring. Clem likes Lee and depends on him, but ultimately her desire is to find her parents. It would be heart breaking on multiple levels to see Clem reunite with her mom if she is alive. It would break my heart to have to part with Clem, but I would be satisfied knowing I protected her until she found her family.

I highly doubt we'll ever see Glenn again, by this time he's already hooked up with Rick and his band of survivors.

Our questions regarding her parents should be answered in Ep. 4.

For the end I'm expecting the worst. TTG essentially said it's going to get exponentially worse from Ep. 3 on.

I would expect so. I suppose by then we'll start getting numb to losing favorite (and judging from some of the Carley threads, beloved characters), the writers will have a task on their hands in coming up with characters in unique ways to make us care about them.

It's probably going to become like it is for some who are caught up in a war. You don't want to get to know somebody too much or care too much about them because they're probably going to get killed and that repeated trauma of losing them won't be very good for you psychologically in the long run.

Like physical trauma, there's only so much psychological trauma a person can take.

How can it get exponentially worse when there's nearly no one left

It will, believe me. They are following Kirkman's vision on this.

We're only getting started, kids. I have already predicted that Clemmy Clem's first walker kill will be her mum.

So basically instead of writing a masterful story where bad things happen? Each writer is in a game of one-upmanship to see who can concoct the worst scenario, irregardless to the overall needs of the plot? No wonder episode 3 was such a let down.

The bad things happening were all laid out in the beginning of the story in broad strokes. "Here they choose this character. Here Larry dies, which sets Lily's arc. Here Kenny loses everyone."

The episodes are later fully written and the oneupmanship occurs after everything has largely been set in stone. Only cosmetic changes happen at that point, nothing cab be insanely rewritten. For instance, the episode 2 writer couldn't have killed Carley just because it seemed cool.

The father was bitten, turned and ate the mother. The guy on the walkie is a pedo.

I agree that her father's dead, and I sincerely hope her mother is too. The power struggle between Lee and Clem's mother would be frustrating.

This 100%. Plus from the screenshot someone took, the guy in the shadows looks like Homer Simpson's boss...a codgety old man.

I dont think Clem's mom is alive unless there is some kind of survival shelter, and even then, it would mean she left her husband in the hospital. Seems very unlikely. My guess is they both died when the hospital got overrun.
Also unlikely is that Fisher-Price kids walkie talkie has the range to maintain communication further than a few hundred yards.

The child's mother vs a convicted felon she's known for 3 mos.
What power struggle?
