    Why are you reading this thread if you haven't finished? Finish!

    As for the ep...holy god, that ending. Those choices. I was shaking by the end. I dropped Ben because he begged me to. I told Clem the truth and made her cry. I made Kenny kill the kid in the attack. These choices were killing me.

    I'm curious, did anyone leave Clem behind with Omid? If you do that, does Molly die if you don't fire quick enough?

    I dunno Rick had a leather jacket on did he not? I can only remember him getting "bit" that one time. I hate how Lee got bit. It's really similar to how Dale got bit. Maybe they amputate his arm? This episode was crazy. I don't know how to feel. I want Lee to make it out alive but I know it's impossible. What did you guys say to Vernon about taking Clem? I said no but maybe that might be one of the best options.

    I'm so stupid, I meant Dale of course. The game has many parallels with the comic. I beg to every God in this universe, let Lee amputate his arm. I'd literally be speechless if Lee dies.

    Am I the only one who chose to save Ben? Sure he's well....Ben...but still, I'd rather have everyone I can have to Clementine.

    He failed me at a much higher number of times than any one else and twice while with Clem sooooo....F**K HIM !!(Fyi he was the only one from the group[for obvious reasons] who wasn't with me on the end of the Episode.

    Maybe if you side with Vernon than you can amputate.

    Is this a plausible resolution set in The Walking Dead world? I would love an explanation.

    The bite is RIGHT on his wrist. If he cut off his wrist, then the infection wouldn't kill him. It would take forever to heal though, he would be disabled after, and the bleeding may kill him.

    What a lot of people do, especially if you get a snakebite, is to make a really tight knot around your arm, so the infected blood can't flow to the rest of your body. If Lee used anything to tie a knot around his elbow, he would have a little more time.

    What was up with all the star wars references? I got a bad feeling about this. I promise I won't put a scratch on her. Not a scratch right? I love it. I am going to do the rewind now. See what the outcome is if I let Ben die, and show the bite.
    I really like Star Wars.

    Also, just wanted to say something that I was just thinking about. I've always hated Lilly so much, but I feel like a small part of me liked her. I actually miss her a lot. Missing a character that you've always loathed? Or that you thought you did? None other than TTG has done this for me before.
    I miss Lilly, Katjaa and Duck so much. And don't even get me started on Carley. ): I miss the original cast so much, yet having this new cast just makes me remember and treasure the old cast even more, and makes me realize that even if I hated some characters, I actually have a part of me that liked them. Anyone else feeling like this as well? I can't say I dislike any character aside from Ben, whom I did feel sympathy for when he begged me to let go.
    No other game has done this for me. Terrific job. I've bought the Season Pass, but I definitely will buy the disc when it comes out because I just love it so much.

    I dunno. In the comics Dale survived an amputated leg after a bite. But it's just wishful thinking on my part. I'm just pretty torn up about Lee.

    OMG. This has been an INTENSE episode. I love this episode SO much.

    I saved Ben because I COULD not let him go. I just couldn't kill him. And at the end, I decided to show my bite to everyone. Christa, Omid, Ben, and Kenny went to go help me find Clementine. The whole group went with me. I heard that if you don't side with Kenny a lot or don't protect his family, he will not go with you. However, I was sort of on balanced with Lily and Kenny. Also, Kenny said that I've helped him save his family many times which made him come with me. Also, I told Ben to come with me, and he said that he is going to prove himself to Clementine and Kenny. Really good episode, can't wait for the fifth one :D

    It does not make a difference if you amputate, if the bite is more than skin deep he is dead, we just got to remember everyone is already infected (Hence the walking dead are the people not the zombies) . Maybe the bite is just a catylst to activating the virus.

    Another great episode! Great job Telltale! I agree with some that focused a bit too much on Ben, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Molly was an awesome character, but it sucks that she might not return in Episode 5... However, did anyone else have a feeling that she was the girl on the videotape that Lee played back in the nursery? It makes sense. For one, she attacked the zombie doctor outside, the one that got stabbed on tape. She went crazy on him and rightfully so, if that was indeed her on the tape. Then she disappeared for a brief moment after she and Lee found the battery. My guess is she gave birth to the child and is keeping him/her safe. She probably left to check back with the child. Guess we'll see how it unfolds in Episode 5.

    No. If you watch the third tape it shows Molly and not the other girl.

    No she did not give birth to her child LOL. It's unknown to what she did when she left, we may find out next episode. But hell no in way did she give birth to a baby, LMFAO.

    I wonder if that little "choose your words carefully" thing is coming back or what you said is going to stick? GREAT episode, though. The "Choices don't matter movement" has finally got what was coming to 'em.

    a question for those who helped Lilly in meatlocker.
    Kenny will help you rescue Clem?

    No molly was having sex with the doctor for medicine its on the third tape to help save her sister who has/had diabites. I think she will show up in episode 5 and be the savior of the group. Guess I should have read down some more because Christoaster gave the answer already.

    Sounds like some of you are not seeing Molly's full story. It's conditional.

    Was Brie the contest winner? Or is that in episode 5, because I don't think she attacked us. I was still pissed about how many times I died at the free your leg from the stair thing so I didn't pay attention to the zombie models.
  • edited October 2012
    Same here! However, she just might return in episode 5! I just posted something about this. Perhaps Molly was the girl on the tape that Lee found. Makes sense because she went crazy on the zombie doctor (the same one on the tape). Also, there was no explanation of her leaving for a brief moment after finding the battery. My guess is she gave birth to the child and is keeping it safe somewhere. She probably left for that brief moment to check back. And maybe she's not alone? Guess we'll see in the last episode

    Yes, I sided with Lilly in the meat locker. Kenny went to help rescue Clem. He said how I sometimes didn't have his back, but he did say that I helped his family all the time, so that made him come along with me.

    She left to get a picture of her sister who died. Lee needed to confront her when she returns with the battery.

    Only seen two tapes. Gonna go back to see the third. I guess the only significance of the tape was to show how the camp became compromised. Hopefully molly makes a return in episode 5 though.

    WARNING: SPOILERS ARE AHEAD, DO NOT GO FURTHER IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED EPISODE 4


    This episode was the worst (emotionally) episode yet. You thought the last two were bad? I laugh at that.

    This whole episode really brought out the fun and sadness into this game. No longer is Lee, Rick in disguise, the unexpected happens.

    At the beginning all I saw was the same WD things we see all the time. Zombies everywhere, drama, getting pissed at Ben, the works. I soon saw tha his liaise was far from it. The boy in the attic, he looked like Duck, and that saddend me morally. So from the beggining I was already fucked in the mind. But I soon forgot about that as TWD went Dead Island on us and made us go through a lot of zombies in a sewer.

    After some events we found lee and friends at the Crawford school gathering supplies. Oh, btw, the boat plan failed. But brave Clem found a boat that needed parts. Anywho nothing of importance really happend. But when we escaped the place we found the Kick Ass Lee and he killed dozens of undead. It was fun to speculate. But soon after, the moment, that now has little importance, was to save or let Ben die. See he was about to fall. And the classic "leave me; so you can escape" scene happend. I grew fond of Ben, but Kenny was my bro, and Ben wanted to die, so Ben drifted onto the wood floor. Only to soon be eaten by the damned. I wished he died BEFORE the zombies we him; as I felt sorrow and dipair from watching him die. From whom the bell tolls. Now I can't even sing the Metallica song, as the horror doesn't end there. This guy Vernon, who is a doctor; but kinda an ass. See he took Clem at the end, he thought it was best...
    But I did not approve of such thing. So Lee went to look for his daughter he never had. Only to slowly grab the fucking walky talky, and get BITTEN.
    At that point I was like "SEASON 2 BETTE HAVE CLEM AS A TEENAGER OT SOMEHING, CAUSE THE LEEGACY SHALL NOT PERISH!" Event event event, I decided to look for Clem by myself, I have no idea if lee is gonna turn and possibly bite someone.

    Well, this is the walking dead..............

    It's ben's fault......

    How do you mean conditional? as in by our choices, Or by hers as in she uses the group to find a semblence of revenge on the doctor for letting her sister die.

    I do think you did a great job on writing the story for episode 4, I really didn't expect Lee's outcome that was excellent cant wait for episode 5.

    She got attacked in the classroom and her intestine's got ripped out it was awesome she was a bitch anyways.
  • edited October 2012
    Found Chucks Body... :(

    On the other hand, Omid and the "Support" Group is screwed as far as I can tell. Omid's gonna die while Vernon is inspecting him, and the Support Group's sik people will die while he's away, biting the rest.

    And Chuck...

    Did we get to see Brie zombified? I thought the contest winner got turned into a zombie too? Maybe, episode 5?

    I sided with Lily in the meat locker but Kenny still told me I always had his back (even though I didn't, I was pretty anti-Kenny in episode 2). I guess he's let some things go between then and now.
  • edited October 2012
    For some reason I knew Lee would end up dying. I,ve read too many graphic novels and books to think other wise. The story is great guys. No real fan could ask for anything more. This is The Walking Dead. Can't wait for the last Eps. By the way, i'm a Sav native, and great job on making my city look authentic. Awesome job guys. Loved it.

    Where is the third video, I only found two?

    Is there a way to avoid the bite?

    In the locker with the handprint on it. You can find the combination in the doctor's pocket.
