[SPOILER] In the forest with Duck:
Why do you guys think Katja shot herself? I personally think she wasn't happy with what her husband had turned into. Kenny's personality shifted from being pretty nice in Episode 1 to "I'll do whatever is necessary, good or bad, to protect my family" in Episode 2 and 3. (Kind of ironic how that never helped him in the end.) I think she was emotionally exhausted and Duck was the only "normal" thing she had left in the world.
Side note:
When Kenny and Katja are going to go say goodbye to Duck and Kat kills herself, how did she get the gun?
I repeated several times, "I'll do it guys. No parent should have to live through that." They then walk away to say goodbye to Duck, and then you follow them to find out that Katja shot herself.
What's weird is Kenny says "She couldn't do it!" or something like that, as if the game thought I said that she should shoot him. AFAIK Katja never had a gun before. (She's supposedly "against them" and would have used one by now if she had one, I'd think.)
So either she hid one somewhere or, for whatever reason, she asked Kenny for one.

Katjaa also did not seem like she was used to the situation...I mean she probably just looked over the kids, nursed the sick and...well I do not think that she went out on supply hunts. I mean she really does not want to use a gun, probably never even trained to. And then everything fell apart, starting with the farm, than the motor inn and finally her son. I can understand her.
And yeah...she appear broken when you tell her the truth about what happened to Larry. Maybe she wanted to die with her humanity left...and not being forced to do stuff like Kenny to survive.
We'll never know.
Kenny commented "you said were ready" in the sense of being ready to put down their son down to prevent him from becoming a zombie. She just couldn't do it.
I was pretty upset about it.
That could very well be the last scene of this game.
who the hell else would have done it?
One of my thoughts was that Kenny, in a fit of panic, might have killed Kat. That doesn't make too much sense, due to the situation with his son right after, but he just took the whole scene a little too well in my opinion. Maybe he was trying to protect Duck? Who knows, although that theory is kind of shaky due to the before mentioned.
I also agree that for a woman that stated that guns make her uncomfortable, her taking her life out of the blue was a little off (Especially with said weapon). The above posters make good points, but that scene just didn't set right with me. :P
He's referring to Kenny I'm guessing, though I don't see why.
Also, Katjaa got the gun cuz everyone was sposed to carry guns because the bandits could come at any moment. It's a dialogue you can pick.
Agreed. Shit just kept on coming and coming. I also believe, aside from the fact that she indeed couldn't live without Duck, that she might have lost her overall sense of purpose. Taking care of her son might have been the only thing keeping her going in the end. In that regard, if you choose to save Doug in ep.1 she briefly mentions her family in Belgium in a conversation when you arrive at the train, stating that they're "even further away now". That was pretty sad in my opinion.
I thought, when they were talking about weapons, it was implied that they were needed. I don't recall anything about Kat actually carrying one. The one on the couch could have been Kenny's. Look at the Walker that fell on them and the events of the raid. Kat didn't fire off a single shot, whether to protect the group or her son.
As someone else already mentioned...I think Kenny killed her. I think he has finally snapped but not yet gone off the deep end. I think hes fighting to control his sanity, but hes fighting a losing battle. Its the whole thing in the beginning of the episode where Katjaa talks about hating the guns around the motel that throws me for this wild conclusion and I just feel that the way Kenny handled the whole situation with Duck getting bitten and how he ignored it I feel like the next 2 episodes somethings gonna give and hes gonna lose his sh!t.
It's an effective tool.
Super effective, if you ask me.
Katjaa says she doesn't enjoy carrying them around and isn't used to it yet, and Lee can say "We have to, but it's good you don't feel comfortable."
Or maybe Duck shot her.
Yeah, but technically that doesn't say she has one, or carries one at all times, or has at all. Heck, except when she offs herself, she never fires a single shot, to my recollection. >_>
