Could Clem choose Lee over her parents?

edited September 2012 in The Walking Dead
What do you guys think? If we meet Clems mum and she demands
Lee leave, maybe because she knows hes a murderer, would Clem go with her? Would she at least put up a fight about it?

    I'm betting she would totally ditch Lee for her mom for obvious reasons. Maybe she would ask if Lee could go with them or something, but I'm certain that if her mother said no, she would go with her anyway.

    Based on her lying, I think she'd ditch Lee in an instant.

    I don't think Lee would let her make such choice. If her parents are indeed alive, they would talk with Lee in private and Lee would then explain to Clem how she must remain with her parents and he must go on and find his wife (or something else).
    I don't see him going with her parents if her dad is alive :D

    Ouch. :P

    What if she had good reasons for lieing? What if the guy said she would die if she told anyone about the walkie-talkie? Do you think she would still ditch Lee?

    Her MOM vs "some guy"?

    Yeah, in a heartbeat.
  • edited September 2012
    She'd put up a fight about it, yeah. But no, she won't abandon her parents to go with Lee.
  • edited September 2012
    Perhaps, if we're presented with that choice, it will depend on how we treat Clementine through the game. If we're nice and do the moral things, she'll stay with us. If we're mean and kill lots of people, she'll be scared of us and want to go with her parents.

    Maybe she was an abusive mum? Maybe she didn't treat Clem like a queen like my Lee did. :)

    Based on the messages on the phone?

    I get the feeling her mom is a normal mom who loves her child very very much.

    It has not struck that way. Just based on everything we experienced in their house and what Clem has explained, they had quite a loving relationship.

    It would be hard, but I would have no second thoughts to letting Clem go with her parents if they are alive. The Lee I'm playing as would want her to be with her family, that's why I've tried to stay optimistic that they are alive.

    But would you let her go if her parent was taking her into danger/making the wrong choice. What if the mum insisted on finding the dad, even if he was bitten?
  • edited September 2012
    I'd let her go, and then follow to make sure they were all safe.

    Bottom line, Clem is not Lee's kid.
  • edited September 2012
    if she chose to go with their parents I totally would understand.
    I am not of her relatives.

    I think her mum might get the wrong idea if you start following Clem and her mum around. :P

    What if she sees you and straight up points a gun at you and tells you to leave them alone?
  • edited September 2012
    Are you kidding?

    You kept her kid ALIVE and brought said kid to HER?

    She'd probably ask you to come along because she'd know you'd help keep Clem safe.

    Id let clem go with her parents, but only if they dont wanna join up with me (only me because I plan on splitting up with the group once clem gets her closure.)
  • edited September 2012
    well we have kept her safe this long, maybe her mom would join the remaining group of survivors, or maybe we get lucky and see the guy on the walkie talkie kill her gruesomely but clementine doesnt see and we have to try to tell her what happened. at this point i feel
    like the group will stay together
  • edited September 2012
    Lee thinks family is important, so Lee would defiantly want Clementine to be with her parents, so it would be up to the parents as to whether Lee can stay with her, if indeed any of her parents are alive
  • edited September 2012
    Murderer or not, he kept Clem alive, so I don't think her mom would just ditch him. Clem would absolutely go with her mom over Lee though.

    I agree. She might turn out as nice as Carley and the rest of the team - they were pretty ok with Lee being a convicted killer.

    Lee is not "some guy" anymore.

    I think lee would join up with clem's mom. You don't spend several weeks and not want to stick around. The past shouldn't matter, it's about survival now.

    True, but he'll never be her mom.

    At the same time, Carley and the rest of the group had known Lee for a little over three months by that point. They had his previous actions with them to take into account, like getting Larry his pills or saving everyone from the St. Johns. If in the first 30 seconds he says "btw, I murdered some guy before all this" Clem's mom would probably be scared. Even if Clem puts in a good word for us, we're still a stranger (who also just admitted to murder) she just met.

    I think that if Clem's mom is still alive, then Lee and Clem will be going their separate ways in the end, if they both survive. If there's one thing the radio-guy crisis tells me, it's that Clem still sees Lee as "just some guy". Poor Lee.

    If by some chance I do find Clems mum alive, I'm killing her. Clem is my daughter, you can't have her!

    Remind me to never be caught in the middle of a ZA with you.
  • edited September 2012
    Of course you give the kid back to her parents. What a silly question.
  • edited September 2012
    Clem would want to stay with you so long as you don't find her parents but if you find them healthy and well? say your goodbyes if they don't want you around, because Clementine isn't going to choose you over them.

    "Thanks for looking after me babsitter 2.0, Mommy's back so bye".

    How much would Clem's mother owe Lee at $5 per hour plus hazzard pay?
  • edited September 2012
    I don't even think Lee would mind to hand Clementine to her parents. She might be cute and clever, but she's also very young and quite a burden for Lee.
  • edited September 2012
    I think Clem will still play the guilt trip card on Lee if he tries to leave after finding her parent/s "where are you going, where a team", so he would want to stick around, also where else does he have to go he knows the fate of his family.

    In a world of uncertainty Lee and Clem have become a constant in each others lifes and so niether would want that to change.

    what a strange question...pick some stranger you've known for 4 months or the woman who gave birth to you and raised you for the past 8 yrs, aka Mom...tough call indeed.

    She'd probably ask you to come along because she'd know you'd help keep Clem safe.

    and plus her Husband is dead and it's been a long...loooong time now.

    good lord, seriously, TTG needs to make some kind of sex DLC to appease the lot of you
    It would probably skyrocket in sales and propel the company from Indie to AAA titlemakers.

    Aw come on, I know she adores Lee but their her parents! So yes I think she would.
  • edited September 2012
    1) We know nothing about her parents. We know a lot about Lee. Of course we would probably choose Lee, but it not a very fair or accurate answer.
    2) She would probably pick her mother, for very, very obvious reasons.

    There are no more (adult) women left. Unless you want this to go loli, looks like it's going homoerotic. :P
