Episode Five: The Final Choice

edited November 2012 in The Walking Dead
I'm pretty sure this won't happen, because I saw it posted in another thread as a joke - but when I really considered it, I really struggled to make a decision. Therefore, I think it'd be a horrible final choice to have to make.

Here it is:

Lee turns. The survivors are climbing aboard the boat, but before they can sail away, Lee is upon them - and he pulls one of them back and bites them. But who do you kill?

The broken Kenny? Innocent Clementine? Pregnant Christa? Harmless Omid? Ben, who is so eager to redeem himself?

I know this won't actually happen, because I'd imagine all if not most of your group will be very very dead by the close of episode 5. But I thought it was an interesting concept - we've been so concerned with saving group members - what if we were forced to kill one of them?

I really can't decide. I know a lot of people will have their own grudges against characters like Kenny and Ben, but really consider it. I'd love to hear what you guys would do.

    If this actually were to happen, I would go for Christa. Ever since she appeared, I didn't like her.

    Baby killer! Just kidding, I'm not keen on her either. She's definitely a candidate. Ken and Omid are bros. Obviously Clem is safe. And I wouldn't kill Ben after saving him. I really can't decide. I guess Kenny doesn't have much more to live for, whereas the others kind of do. But he's my bro... :-(

    Uh, yes, this is indeed very hard D:

    I dislike Kenny, I sort of like Christa and Omid, even though it feels like they don't really trust me, and Ben is my fave. Clem is just not an option here...

    I'd feel like a complete piece of shit after doing it, but I think I'd have to pick Omid here, seems like a better option for the sake of the group :/

    Difficult choise Indeed. Not.
    Ben, Of course. douchebag.. I'd eat his brain. Oh, Wait... He doesn't have a brain.

    I think purely as a mercy kill (and also it has a weird kind of poetic-ness to it) I'd have to take Kenny. He really hasn't got anything left, whereas Christa and Omid have the prospect of a coming child, and Clem and Ben are still young. Bros go down together.

    I would bite Kenny. I know it's mean, but Christa needs Omid if she is pregnant...and if Clementine survives, and still has no parents, they can take her in. And Ben is pretty young too so maybe he can chill with them for a bit as well. I don't want him to die young... :(

    Yeah that would be a horrible choice to make but probably Kenny. He's my dude but he'll probably kill himself within a few weeks of getting on the boat, so...

    He's my best friend and all, but I'd kill Kenny. The man, literally, has nothing left. He saw his entire family die days before, and there were a few points in 4 where I thought he was going to commit suicide. Christa and Omid are both good people, Clementine is Clementine so she's obviously immune, and Ben is just some young, stupid kid who I truly believe will make things right. But I wouldn't like doing it though, not by a long shot.

    The only scenario I can imagine that involves killing a friend would be if he Radio Man forced you to. And I picked Omid.....and he was such a nice guy....

    I'm sorry! I didn't want to! I never neglect Ben, and Kenny's my bro! And Christa's a girly lady! On second thought, yo might be right. Putting the guy out of his misery and all...

    I think it's freaking hilaaaaarious that ben is the leader in this poll when we were already given a chance to kill ben and most of you all wimped out. You didn't do it then and you sure as heck aren't going to kill him after you went through the trouble of saving him. You're not kidding anyone!

    Wonder how cold and black their heart is for the person who chose Clementine.


    Just kidding. :p

    Very tough decision. I chose Omid in the poll, but in the actual moment I might choose Christa. It's a decision i can never make unless it's on the spot.

    I saved Ben's life, not going to take it afterwards just like that. Kenny's the only survivor in the original group who has been there since day one(not counting Lee/Clementine). We have certainly had our differences but that alone has earned some permanent respect from me. After everything we've gone through, i can't just kill him.

    Imagine if you take too long to make a decision and Lee instead kills everyone. :eek:

    If you are a zombie you don't think rational anymore, therefore you take the easiest thing to grab -> Clementine :P

    That's just it... determining who is the easiest to grab takes rational thought. A walker will probably grab whoever is the closest and doesn't smell like a corpse.

    Christa, unless she can find some abortion pills. (horrible way of thinking i know but it is what it is) Too much noise in a zombie apocalypse, and we dont need another soul to suffer. If she sees it my way then i choose omid.

    Lol i have no reason to choose sombody ive known for a day, rather than a group member ive been with for a while
