i actually saw a love triangle with lee lilly nd carly... i thought lilly offed her and intentionally accused her than when she shot her and saw how angry lee was she knew lee loved carly, not her. the "will you come with me" was just a last ditch effort in which 99% said no... is that safe to say haha?

Yeah I'd kind of like to know why Lily blamed Carley of all the people she could blame if she needed a scapegoat.


but she blames Doug too.

It's because it's the third episode. I have my own literary term for it. I call it "The valley of depression". Episode 1 is fine, kinda sad but not too bad. Episode 2 starts off sad and just goes down hill from there. Then Episode 3 starts off real bad and just gets sadder and sadder. So, after all that, there's no way but up....

right?!?

Right...I think...Im trying to see how they could make it more sad in the next episode but I honestly cant think of anything. Kenny has lost everything so his death although obviously sad wouldnt be near as sad as it was for katjaa or duck. I dont care what happens to Ben, not saying he is as bad as everyone says he is but he really hasnt done anything for the group he usually just stands there. Chuck, we just met and seems like a nice guy but lets be honest- his death wont be sad since he is leaving nothing behind. As for Christa and Omid, well they could develop them through episode 4 than make a heart breaking tradgedy at the end but if anything happens to them based off of episode 3, it really wouldnt be sad.

God forbid but the only thing that would really give telltale the win in this staring contest of sadness is if something happened to clem or lee...

I think we should have been able to at least bone Carley before she died. It's not like they are trying to make this a family game.

I would of done anything to keep Carly around honestly since she was the only level headed one in the group who I really trusted besides clem. Alas, it would take telltale DOUBLE the amount of time to make and develop a whole other story if doug/carly stuck around. So i guess it the realm of it being "just a video game" it was for the benefit of the game I would of liked carly to die in a different matter where we could have an emotional burial or something but whatevvvvs

I think Clem would of liked a younger sister! haha no but seriously they were in a motel, the single place on earth where scandals happen and better yet in the zombie apocalypse!! I think lee and carly have done it just in between the time of episodes. I find it hard to believe they didnt. It seems everyone in the group knew they were fond of eachother

If keeping Carley/Doug around would have complicated the story, then why not have them become wounded by Lilly. She aims for the head shot but have Lee block it at the last second and they instead take a nasty graze to the head or something which puts them down for a while. The rest of the story then can unfold nearly unchanged except we're carting a wounded and unconscious Carley/Doug with us in the back of the train.

I definatly would have changed the way Carley died, made it a choice between her and ben or a goodbye or something no closure in that, I don't feel like were in a group anymore so if theres a choice to split up from everyone else I'll take it, I don't owe these ppl anything and christa should watch her mouth

I actually thought to leave her alive for the walkers as a distraction for Kenny and myself before Kenny even suggested it! Harsh to be sure, but tactically the wise decision!

And when Katjaa took Duck off into the woods, I thought "she's going to kill herself" so when we heard the shot and walked up and saw it, it really wasnt a shock, but still a "WOW" moment!

I also sensed katjaa was going to kill herself. Just by the way she said, duck is my whole life. idk if you told katjaa that you were a convict but I did and than told her what happened in the meat locker with larry and she replied "everythings changed"... so I think she saw how Kenny has changed into a terrible human. Just one note about the suicide, how did she get the gun...didnt kenny have it? I find it hard to believe unless he put the gun down for some reason that she quickly grabbed it fast enough from him.

Of course she died before sleping with Lee. I knew she was dead the moment she said she was thinking about Lee. In the apocalypse you NEVER declare love for another or try to settle down to start a family. NEVER.

I don't recall seeing Kenny give Katjaa the gun, but I kinda figured that's what happened. I guess some things are just implied that maybe just don't need to be shown.

I mean, that scene was about Kat and Duck and Kenny dealing with that situation, not about how did Kat get the gun!

I'd make Clementine the one who gave away the supplies.
Also: what was the consequence of the steal decision in Episode 2. Is there any?

The thing that irked me was how slow the attacking bandits were to respond after one of them got shot. They all had weapons and they just stood there looking stupid while they got picked off. I don't mean the sniping sequence, but before the rest of them came in.

There were a few other strange quirks, some minor animation problems, some odd dialogue, mostly near the beginning, but overall, great episode.

I would have reduced the number of deaths slightly. I think Doug/Carly should have been kept alive until at least the next episode.

I get it we all want to kill Lily after what she did to Carley..but killing her in front of Clem and the others especially after you told them you murdered someone doesn't go too well...

In 3rd person view if i was in the group and Lee came to me after all what happened and told me he murdered someone, i guess i would freak a bit but frankly glad for his honesty.....now after telling me that and killing Lily i would not be able to trust the guy at all

Well, once Ben told me it was him, I thought about replaying to see if I could get Lilly to kill him instead. Apparently that doesn't happen though.
