Marlon isn’t as strong as you think.[Spoilers]
Ever since episode 1 , Marlon was the leader of the group he was paining a pretty picture to Clementine and AJ that they never had any problems with anything until we met Abel in the (train station) I mean hell Marlon started to change quick after when Clementine, AJ,Louis and violet went outside the safezone....and Marlon wanted to have a private conversation with Brody than she shoved him on the ground like if it was nothing than later Marlon killed Brody by accident in the process .
Later at the endgame of the episode when Clementine exposes Marlon for killing Brody and selling out Tenns sisters in the process and when mRlon decides to lower the gun he snatched from AJ you can decide to weather to catch him by surprise by attacking him or calming him down, and if you chose to attack him that makes 2 girls knocked him down.
Now I ain’t talking about boys vs girls nonesense I just wNted Too point it out that Marlon wasn’t really the Strongest leader em even tho things were smoking mirrors in the boarding school.
What do you guys think of this discussion, let me know in the comments below.
Peace✌?

Of course he was strong. It's already 7-9 years after the outbreak and he lived and served as their leader. It takes a lot. He made all the things work for them. That proves already that guy was strong.
Brody knocking him down doesn't prove anything since he didn't expect it. In TV Series in Season 6, Rick Grimes was easily knocked down by a random woman and saying that Rick isn't strong is real bullshit. Clementine knocking him down also doesn't prove anything since he was pretty much mentally broken at that time.
Giving Sophie and Minnie to The Raiders also isn't a coward move. I just think it's pretty clear that he had no choice in that case. Telling group the truth would of course be right, but at the same time risky since they wouldn't feel safe anymore. He should have told them that of course, but I can see why he didn't want to.
Of course he would never be as good leader as Rick, Negan or Magna from TWD universe, but for a teenager he already have done more than people could expect from him.
Did he even really claim to be, though?
And out of all the other people he was one of the best choices for their leader. Only Asaim would be a better pick.
Brody knocking him down was by surprise Clem from other side wasn't and Clem kicked his guts that more thanenough to make me cry if I gut kicked in my guts, and I can tell that she is more hand to hand expert that he is cause he mostly use bow and long ranged weapons I guess he always put a distance between him and his enemies that how he mostly survived in the Apocalypse.
Marlos last all this long as their leader. lets see now the opposite, not be a "coward" and fight the raiders.
coward marlon- 2 girls gone in +5 years
fighting raiders- lets see the count of corpses
i never thought of mullet as being strong, he was dangerous because he was a coward.
why does this matter, he was a kid who survived nearly a decade leading other kids
Marlon’s a nancy boy for losing the power struggle with Clem.
