Where are Clems Parents?
Hi,
please apologize, i´m not a native english speaker so it could be that i have missed something in the game.
I have one question:
At the end of Episode 3, there is the option to try to figure out with Clem where Clems parents could be.
And then, you two decided to look in the "Marsh Hotel".
But if i remember correctly, you (and so Lee) could hear in Ep.1 on the answer machine that Clems Mother has said that they are gone from the Hotel to the Hospital because Clems Father was bitten and get sick.
So...why looking at the Marsh Hotel and not at the Hospital?
Or have i missed some information?

Its a good question to ask. I think really Lee is just humoring Clem by exploring the Marsh House, I think he is convinced her parents are dead but don't want to upset her just yet. It's far more likely they may be at a hospital (as you said thats what her mother said on the phone) but a hospital would be a certain no-go area due to the high number of dead there is likely to be there and would be suicide to even think about visiting.
Lee heard the answer machine, which said they were at the hospital and couldn't leave.
Clem never heard those messages. She thinks they are at the Marsh House.
I don't know what Lee is thinking taking her there. Maybe it's just to make her feel better. Maybe he wants to look for supplies and thinks it's a nice place to rest.
Nobody knows what Lee's motives are.
so clem going by what she was told (common thread in the game) she would deduce thats where they are.. and because her dad is 'ill' and the hospital was overrun/busy then hotel is the next logical place to find them..as they could rest up after some basic treatment.
Investigating - finding out what happened to them. Maybe someone still knows, has seen the tragedy, there might be other clues, whatever. It's their last known location, the place to start. I am convinced that the storyline with Clem's parents will see some closure in episode 4. We WILL find out what happened to them, and that's the reason why Lee is taking her to the place.
Hi and welcome to the forum.
The Marsh Hotel seems like a fair place to start looking for Clem's mother. From the answering machine, I got the impression that Clem's mother was calling from the Hospital the first time, from the hotel the second time (she said she had to get back to the hospital) and maybe from the hotel the last time since maybe trying to get to the hospital was getting too dangerous. Then again maybe she made all these calls from her cell phone...
Welcome to the forums!
I think the reason Lee and Clem are going to The Marsh House is because that is their only solid lead. I don't live in Savvanah, but I'm fairly certain that it is a large city. It would likely have many hospitals, and in the confusion of the city being overrun by walkers, Clementine's parents could have ended up at any one of them. The Marsh House is the only place that they would have been at for certain.
good point, maybe he was just investigating possible places they could be, maybe he already assumes they are at the hospital but wanted to ask about other possibilities just in case, i guess we will find out next episode.
and the hospital may be a place we want to go anyway, to help Omid and just general medicine.
Their last known location was the hospital.
So when Clem's mom said "they're not letting us leave" you think she was talking about the hotel?
So, this is the question.
Okay, on this side, i can understand now why Lee and Clem will look at the Marsh Hotel first.
Perhaps Clems Mother gone back to grab some things for her husband.
I suspect even if Clem's mother is still alive the chances of finding her at the Marsh hotel is unlikely,it sounded as if they were trapped in the hospital.
I really hope that at least Clem's mother is alive because that is her rightful place. A part of me is hoping this is true because I suspect we may even see that some players will resemble Jolene, by trying to take someone else's child and keeping them for themselves! I have just read an article on GameInformer and the female reporter wrote that she hopes that Clem's parents are dead so she can keep Clem?! justifying it by saying that Lee(a convicted killer) is better suited to care for Clem than her own family,a very selfish attitude if you ask me! Clementine would dump Lee ,in an instant,if that was the choice.
Wishful thinking, especially when Clementine reveals Lee's past and if he has continued to kill. Any parent will be naturally wary and will need a good deal of convincing that a total stranger has treated their child PERFECTLY for the last three or four months.
"He didn't touch you in a naughty place did he Clem?" sad but true.
Remember three months is a long time, so in any investigation you start with what you know,
They were at the Marsh House Hotel, from the reception you could find out which room and grab a spare key.
Inside the room could be a digital camara with view screen so they can see all the photos of where they went or one of the parents diary's?
From this information they would plan their next move on which location to choose or a person to look out for.
Also although implied Clem's farther was attacked by a crazy person, they didn't say bitten so it could have been a regular attacker (human) and maybe alive
I believe radio man has Clem's parents around, just not in the state anyone would expect... no need for a pedo in a Zombie apocalypse to shock a little girl and her warden.
