Clem's Walkie Talkie
This is just my opinion. Feel free to argue with me!
There seems to be a lot of confusion concerning the walkie talkie. A lot of people on this board seem to think that the person on the other end is either A) Clem's Dad or connected to her Dad in someway -
Connected to Glenn or - C) been talking to Clem ever since Macon.
A - Clem's dead is either dead or a walker. He was attacked by a strange man outside of the hotel. The same hotel the group is currently headed towards.
B - I really don't see how this is possible unless Glenn ran into a another group and somehow gave or lost the radio. Then this person or group made their way to Savannah before Clem's group did. A long way with a lot of zombies in between. This has to be the least likely scenario.
C - MOST radios like this do not have that long of a range. It's about 130 miles or so from Macon to Savannah. It would be a stretch to think that Clem found a radio and another person in Savannah just happened to another radio with that type of range. And, they happened to be on at the same time. Possible, but unlikely.
Solution, IMO: Clem started using the radio the closer she got to Savannah in the hopes her parents would have the other one. Remember though, she had one in the tree house, and Lee used the other in the kitchen. Glenn took that one. (See B above.)
Clem, being young, alone, and afraid probably started clicking on the radio and asking for her Mom and Dad - just like she did in the tree house back home. She probably heard nothing at first, but then someone in Savannah was scanning - maybe with a HAM radio or something. The stars aligned and this pervert or another group of bandits heard her and is pretending to know the whereabouts of her parents - thinking Clem's group is loaded with supplies.
Either way, I just don't see any type of happy ending for the group in Savannah. Maybe Huey's on River Street is open and they can get some Shrimp n Grits!
Of course, we could all be wrong.

I could be wrong too. XD
Yes, that tanker was filled is a noxious gas that made everyone on the train hallucinate. The reason why they hear noises on the walkie is because everyone is imagining it. Also that horde of walkers following the train doesn't exist- they are all just hallucinations.
In fact there is no zombie apocalypse.
It's all Lee's dream.
Which is a dream inside of Clem's dream.
So its a voice inside of a walkie talkie, in a zombie apocalypse, in a mans dream, that is in a little girls dream.
Zombseption!!!!!!!!
(The above statement is also in a dream.)
(I'm on a horse.)
Someone's gonna make a movie about that!!!
I guess I'm just thinking the chances of both of them having a more advanced radios are slim - of course not as slim as a zombie apocalypse, though.
I hope that TTG explains how Clem has been doing this. It seems to be a point of consternation on this board - or at least on a lot of topics.
That would make him super freaky <,< If its true top of my hit list.
1. It didn't sound ANYTHING like Glenn.
2. Glenn is in a camp outside Atlanta. He doesn't leave Atlanta until later when Rick Grimes shows up. Considering this is now more than three months after the start of the infection, Rick has already shown up to Atlanta about two months ago.
Glenn's a comic character so that's confirmed canon.
I thought this as well. Obviously Clementine, in her innocence, was the one who gave up the information FIRST, either willingly to some one claiming to know her parents, or willingly in hopes of getting some sort of response from her parents.
Could it be possible that, like Jolene, that this guy has been "tracking" us since we first came to Macon? He may not have even been to Savannah, but in a stroke of luck that is where we ended up heading and it fit with his whole "find your parents" plan?
In the preview for episode 4, it seemed like a toss up to me of whether he was warning Lee or threatening him. I do get the feeling though that maybe he is not as dangerous as we think.
wow you right
Regarding the range of the walkie-talkie I just guess that TTG forgot about that
It surely seems that the guy on the other hand is a pervert or something (I base this speculation on the way he talks) - surely someone dangerous.
Or zombception. I don't know. I mean, motordead is on a horse.
Not in the comic he didn't. That was just in the television series. Rick was never in a tank in the comic. The tv series and the comic are in two separate TWD realities. The game is supposed to be in the same reality as the comic.
I do think this guy has been "listening" since Macon. I doubt Clem's walkie talkie was ever broken, maybe just dead batteries or she just didn't understand how to fully use it. Maybe she just chipped a corner and thought it was broken.
Given mobility during a ZA, I do think the wacknut always was/is in Savannah or very close to the city the whole time and it's just played out to his advantage. Hers may not be the only frequency he's been monitoring.
However, I agree that he may not be as twisted as hinted, all things being somewhat grey in nature (i.e. Chuck telling Clem she was going to die).
And he just happened to know Clem would not only survive, but be packing a walkie talkie? A relative or acquaintance is too specific. This guy doesn't "know" Clem, he just got lucky.
The developers said in a Q@A that the parents might appear within the series. Now whether or not this means they will appear alive or as walkers is debatable, but it would be a twist in itself that the parents are actually alive. If that's the case, the person attacking the father not being a walker could fit because it would explain why he is still alive and not a walker.
or he just use a radio station to send the broadcast it's remind me of dead light but the important question is who is this guy and what dose he want from clem or lee ?
I think you may be on to something. I just recently heard the telephone message during the beginning of Episode 1, and indeed it could have been a crazy person, or someone with a grudge against the family. Also, during the 2nd message, Clementine's Mother says "They're not letting us leave." Suggesting that they could be either in a shelter, or were kidnapped while visiting the city. Using common sense the kidnapping part makes more sense, because once they found out about the walkers, they would have left Savannah in search of their daughter. They wouldn't stay in a shelter unless they knew something was going on. Which brings up the idea that they were kidnapped, then the apocalypse began while in their sequestration. That, or the hotel they were in found out about the walkers, and didn't tell their guests. Either way, Clementine's parents being kidnapped is a legit possibility.
Yeah, I get the feeling all the hype is a misdirection and may end up being a great help to the group.
And maybe just maybe all of the choices done around Clem are being reported to her "parents" and that effects the way the mystery person treats Lee.
"Do you really think a person who killed two people in cold blood should be looking after a little girl?"
or
"How do we know that you wont abandon this little girl like you did one of the people in your group."
It would be a most welcome outcome to finally see choices made throughout the game all tie together and have a real impact on the game.
Naw, it's just cause she is a brooding black woman.
Also this, I'm playing through the game again and making the opposite choices I made the first time. When Lee and Kenny come back to the motor inn at the beginning of ep3, I noticed Clem talking on her walkie talkie. She didn't do that the first time I played. Maybe 'cause at the end of ep2 I mentioned the walkie talkie this time, I don't know.
So, my point is this: I don't think she is talking to this mysterious man in Savannah while in Macon. Why would TTG put that important clip of Clem talking on the walkie at the motel in one version and not in the other? If that was an important part, it would be something you'd see in any version - no matter what path you take.
Also, in the comics, Rick talks to Lori on a phone - that isn't connected and after Lori is dead. (Sorry, television fans!) Michone talks to her sword. I think it may just be something the characters do; they hold onto something from the "before" time as a coping mechanism. I think that's what Clementine does; it's only when they get close to Savannah that the strange man picks up the signal.
Come on, TTG!! Puts us out of our misery and release ep4! We'll no the answer to this question, and then we'll move onto something else!
