I'm gonna stick by she's just a kid. She wanted to look for her parents, and she thought that someone was going to help her. The stranger probably told her not to tell Lee about it.
To be honest I think she's being manipulated by the guy on the walkie-talkie. Does anyone know if you could get rid of it when the option came up in Episode 1? In any case, the situation has got me thinking about Clementines perspective on Lee seeing as she might be hiding something from him. Or if I'm making the right decision in teaching her right from wrong in a post-apocalyptic setting altogether. Till this point, I thought she was coping ideally, as far as someone at her age can, given the circumstances. But having the possibility of some rotten and sly individual feeding her nonsense through the walkie-talkie has got me wondering what she's really thinking, as might be the case for many of you. I really did think she was smarter than this if this is the scenario being played out.
DAMN it, Lee! DAMN YOU to HELL! I SAID that I WANTED a SUNDAE! Did you listen? DID YOU LlSTEN!?!? Well now you're going to die, Lee. You're going to die here alone and miserable. And I'm going to stand over your bleeding carcass and you're going to WATCH me eat this sundae. WATCH, Lee.

the old man used that 'santa claus' kid logic on her
'If you tell anyone our 'secret' your parents will be very mad with you, they told me so' so she's hoping if she's a good girl and does what she's told she will be able to see them again...maybe. That or he's using The Force
you do realize that what just occurred is not possible right? Those handheld radios do not have the range needed to communicate over extreme distances. So unless the random radio guy is within 1-5 miles at maximum, he would never pick anything up.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the time spent on the train, along with its speed and distance traveled, make it impossible unless the guy doing the calling on the radio is Also on the train with you, or possibly (but much less likely) driving alongside in some sort of vehicle. And considering the state of the roads I highly doubt it.

it's ok bro she's using the Fisher-Price: ARMY grade walkie talkies, they were a limited edition last xmas...all the rage
Think about it. Clementine cares about her parents more than anything and if a stranger says that he has them, that gives Clementine all the hope of the world.

are you aware of radio transmitters being huge satelite dishes ?? satelities in orbit bouncing signals ? or radio masts ?? so small minded thinking it's another walkie talkie...do some research on communications like during the war..

yup kids a full of hope they are not wise to all the bad shit..but i supose lee can try and open her eyes in our choices to make her see what could happen like the 'lying'
Because I don't like you, and in this zombie-apocalypse world, people I don't like have a tendency to get killed. Actually....even the people I do like have a tendency to get killed.
All the more reason for this mystery man to be afraid.
"Clementine saw you kill the St. Johns"
Oh God what have I done
"Clementine saw you slowly torture radio man to death"
Good. She needs to know how bastards like that are dealt with.
It's actually kind of funny how many people think Lee and Clemmy have this tight knit bond that'll bring them through the apocalypse unscathed. I've never actually looked at Clemmy to have that sort of bond with Lee.
At the moment, Lee is her caretaker, if anything. Of course they're going to have a bond. She's probably scared out of her gourde. Children have the tendency, especially if separated from their parents, to attached themselves to an authority figure until they're reunited with their parents. I've actually considered that as an ending. Her parents are alive and she departs with them, leaving Lee all alone... again.
Hopefully that's not the case, but I've always wondered why she wasn't a little more rebellious in some circumstances. With her wanting to find her parents, no matter what Lee says, I found that to be a proper response. Now we just have this asshat on the radio, effin' with us.
It's possible that the message Lee and Kenny heard was the first time that guy had been within range to transmit to Clem's walkie talkie. Given all the static and fade, it wasn't a solid signal. Maybe he had only been able to listen to her "talking" to her parents up until that point.
On all other accounts, she has proven to be pretty smart, so I don't think that's the issue here. I think it is just a child holding on to whatever hope she has that her parents are alive, overriding all reason.

I've actually considered this as an ending as well. That perhaps at least Clem's mom is alive still and if they find her and get to a boat, that there is room enough for everyone....but one. DUN DUN DUN. and to save everyone Lee can choose to stay behind and has to watch as Clem and her mom sail off into the sunset as zombies come to eat him up.
lol i've given this a fair amount of thought i guess.
Clem's mom doesn't want you around Clem and says you and them will part ways as soon as everyone find a boat and reach a safe place, and then at one moment a walker grabs Diana and you can save her, having to say goodbye to Clem forever later on, since she stays with her mom, or you can let things happen too fast as they usually do and keep Clem, since you're the better choice to be her guardian.
Remember, no happy endings without overwhelming guilt of killing a little girl's mom \o/

I think there is a bond but like you said a care taker not a parent, in my playthrough Lee said I know Im not your dad speech in ep1 and in ep 2 Clem says he'll make a great daddy given the right prompts.
It was in ep3 that I saw I was just a care taker when after making all the moral choices, on the train during planning Clem askes "can i tell my parents" mabe about Lees past, so I said no thinking it may be better coming from Lee then an eight year old.
She then said "you carn't tell me what to do", oh really Clem but you listen to radio guy saying not to tell Lee and to leave him so she can go to him, a guy she may/maynot have even met before. She only went there once!

You crack me up bro! I love how players make fun of Carley's stupidity about batteries!
LOL dude that is clever
Still, it was an interesting twist though.

Hey! I'm actually quite comfortable with that theory! Much better than the assumption that a pedo bear was waiting on the other end.:P
