im kind of confused with what happened. everyone escapes from Sam/junior while the narrator takes care of the tumor. how come after they leave max doesnt go back to normal? was the narrator lying?

also i was surprised how sad sam was when max died. in season 2 they died and became zombies and also went to hell and saved that rat. so why is dying in this game different? why didnt max become a zombie or why cant sam go to hell and get him back?

    Well, zombies are undead, but they still have a body, and I'm not sure much would be left after a nuclear explosion in space.

    The Narrator said he can take care of the Tumor in 5 minutes. The maintron, according to Momma Bosco, will impact in 4 minutes. I guess the Narrator didn't have enough time.

    1- They became Zombies thanks to Jurguen's machine, which is specially for make zombies. Under normal conditions you just die.
    2- What's New Belzeebub? is also a special condition: Harry Moleman was controling the train at the time and he let Sam and Max go back and forth to Hell. Now Satan surely has more extrict rules about enter to Hell, which probably make impossible to bring Max back.

    Jurgen's Soul Sucker was a machine spesifically designed to take souls and leave the corpses as zombies. It's not the same thing as dying, like, dying-dying. Or dying-dying-dying.

    Hell does beg a question, though. Maybe it's because he can't return to Hell now. He either doesn't have a soul token or he doesn't know the new location of Soul Train station, since the old one is obviously not there anymore.

    You should probably stop there and play the game over. Sam? Junior? You sure ARE confused, heh.

    At no point in the game we escape FROM them though.

    Are you sure? Sounded like a mixup of "Sam" instead of "Max"(but then Max's Superego also makes that mistake of calling "Max" "Sam", but I think that was a bug), and the mistake of thinking "Norrington's" Junior was mixed with Max at the end of BTAOTD.

    They weren't escaping from Sam and Sam Jr. at any point, I don't think...and besides, a lot of people seem to have left SJ inside Max...poor thing.
