will there be a "Carl" in season 2?

edited November 2013 in The Walking Dead

I think this is a good possibility. By "a Carl" I mean a kid who has basically lost their sence of morality, making them cold, and more calculated. And I don't mean like Becca. Becca is a bitch, but Carl kills in cold blood for barely anything. (like the fleeing kid in season 3 of the tv show.)

It would be interesting if there was a character like this, close to Clem's age, as I could picture the obvious tension between them and Clem. The character could act as a sort of semi-antagonist, pushing Clem to lose her morality by making certain choices. I can't have been the only one who's thought of this scenario.

  • In a sense, Becca could be that "Carl" you were referring to. Of course she doesn't kill in cold blood, but she has lost most of her sense of morality.

  • I chose to execute the guy in 400 Days, but it seemed odd that the adults let a kid watch a guy get shot right in the face.

  • I have to agree here - just because she isn't Carl, doesn't mean she hasn't evolved the same way.

  • I'm sure that in the ZA you have to get used to seeing people getting their brains blown out, kid or not. I'm just saying, if I had a kid uring the ZA, I would tell him: Son/Daughter, there are zombies roaming the streets. If you get to close, they'll kill you slowly and horribly. Grab a weapon and mash their brains if they get close. And go round up every can of food you find in this goddamn house. Then, grab a hammer, and cover the entrances with furniture. And don't make too much noise.

    Worse. There will be a Becca.

    I think Carl did the right thing in that one scenario. Hershel told the guy to drop his gun but instead, he reached out and tried to give it to Carl. If Carl had tried to take it, he would have let his guard down for a second and that could have been fatal.

    In answer to the original question, I think we will have the chance to shape Clem into that kind of character in Season 2 depending on our choices.

  • Five Carl's combined will still be better than Becca... She's the worst.

    will there be a "Carl" in season 2? Worse. There will be a Becca.
