If you have not played Episode 4 please leave now!!!!





Okay,I think that Lee may be a false protagonist considering he was bitten,and I am pretty sure he will die.A false protagonist for those who don't know is a character who is ment to look like the main character,but is really just there to progress the story.It kind of makes sense,what do you think?

    He's been there from episode 1 to 4. He /is/ the story, he's been there for over the majority of it. Just because he's a bit it doesn't make him a false protagonist it just means he's probably most certainly doomed.

    Protagonists don't have to survive to be protagonists.

    Though I mean he will probably only be there for one season,maybe the next character we play will be there till the end?

    I kinda see it as one season being one side story in the comic universe, neatly wrapping up at the end. Next season will most likely be the same.

    This season is probably the end of this particular story. What end are you talking about?

    That indeed is the answer to the literary question in the original post.

    Had Lee been a false protagonist, Telltale would have had to kill him in episode 1. He is alive when episode 5 starts, he can't be "false" now.

    The season will end with clementine waking up in her treehouse. She climbs down, her parents are there, and everything's fine...

    Could you say Ben was a false protagonist in Episode 4? Because it really focused on him.

    LOL.

    Well the hero can die at any point as long as the story keeps going kind of like when In The Departed when leo died the story continued.
