Will Pete Survive His Amputation?
As seen in the episode 1 preview, Pete is bitten in the ankle and the camera zooms in on what I believe to be a saw. My guess is we will get an option to cut it off, or leave it. Or we just do it without a choice. But if the foot is cut off, do you think he'll survive? They'd have to get it off fast after he was bitten, and the walk from the riverbank to the cabin seems far. And he could die of blood loss if they amputation is not treated properly. But in the preview, it seems they are in a titled white/gray room? Is this the cabin or another place? And why are Oete and Nick not seen in any otger scenes in the preview besides the first few seconds?
Give me your thoughts and predictions!

I think it will end up being the same thing as Lee: the infection may have already spread and he may live through one more episode then die. I'm worried about Nick, though.
You know what would be cool, if we have to get supplies and do the procedure for Pete. If we do the operation successfully, Pete lives, if you fail or do it too slow, he dies. Now that be an interesting choice, and would affect future episodes
He dies if you don't go with him, so even if he does somehow survive his amputation I don't think he will be around after E2
Pete will die. I just can't see telltale diverging the stories that much.
The amputation scene will be gruesome regardless lol
Well... choice isn't the correct words... perhaps "action with consequence" would be a better term.
definitely
I hope whoever you save lives more than the first 5 minutes of the episode though, then I feel it would just be pointless having a bug choice of saving them. At least have them live till episode 3 like Carley/Doug
I'm gonna say that Pete dies, solely based on the fact that I think he's awesome.
Would be way to much work.
Hopefully they will make two choices at least have some impact on future episodes
TT loves to kill the likeable ones
I see it more as a Ben impact. Carley/Doug had a role to play until they died, whereas Pete doesn't since he is dead in one situation. He may make it into E3 but I don't see it past that. Could be wrong though.
the one character from the new group I actualy like too. other than luke I guess.
I think that Pete wont live long enough to see whether or not the amputation was a success, and if you went with Nick then he dies the same way Pete would.
...An interesting thing would be if how each of them dies is they run into the zombified version of the other one.
That's what I meant
Be nice if it got the point where the story could differ in there games as much as say, the Witcher 2?
Sort of reminds me of TWAU with the thing of choosing when to do something making a huge impact.
Pete will die, If he cut it off and survived il be mad Lee didn't make it doing the same thing
I think the choice of whether or not to save Pete will determine how the group sees Clem in a way.
Pete gave orders to both Nick and Clem to come to his side, and Pete was clearly the one in charge among this small group of Nick, Pete and Clem. By abandoning Pete, it could be seen as the inability to follow orders, as well as not providing Pete the hospitality she herself asked for in Episode 1.
By saving Pete it establishes that Clementine is not just focused on herself and her survival, by being willing to try and save Pete in a situation where he was most certainly bitten, and Nick may even be greatly thankful to Clem for trying to save his uncle, even if they had a rocky relationship.
Ultimately I think Pete will die with either choice, but the way you play it will make a larger impact on how the group perceives you.
I think Nick and Luke are awesome as well. Nick actually seems like a fairly nice guy.
Nick's cool? Even with his... less than stellar first impression? (I think he's interesting, not exactly nice).
I want him to survive but I honestly doubt he will, I don't see TellTale diverging the story that much.
I feel like Pete will die regardless and Nick will make it back to the group safely regardless of choice.
EDIT: Wrong comment.
Yeah, that's the real proof that Kenny is alive.
Oh snap. You get an upvote for that.
eh, besides him accidentally almost shooting me, I think he's a cool guy.
It's gonna be "Pete dies anyway, Nick lives no matter who you pick" sadly
I see him pulling a heroic sacrifice in Episode 2, i.e taking a bullet for Nick. If you didn't save him, Nick gets shot.
Ditto. Aside from the whole misfire incident, he's one of my favorites of the Cabin Group. (Tied with Luke, both of whom are behind Pete).
We don't see anything of Nick or Pete after the initial scene in the teaser, so I wouldn't bet on the poor guy surviving that amputation...
Interesting idea, but i can't say i'm a fan of timed missions, i like being on the edge, but not on "If you won't do this fast enough you fucked up!" kind of edge.
*tips hat *
they stated this choice will have a BIG effect in the season
Really? Awesome!
But source?
I'm sure Pete will die. Nick? Possible. We don't see them among other members in the trailer for ep. 2. And probably it's not the cabin, where Nick drinks and Pete cuts. Just some shed on their way. Think about this - Carver comes, Clem opens the door, right? WHY SHE? Why not Luke, Carlos, Alvin or Rebecca? Where were they? FUNERAL maybe? Clem, stay with Sarah?
"EGM: Talking a little bit more about this first episode of Season Two, it ended on even more of a cliffhanger than usual. Why did you guys decide to end the episode where you did?
Sean Ainsworth: We obviously can’t go into a lot of detail without giving too much away, but I think we ended it here because all the ramifications that stem from your last decision in the episode will trickle out and affect the rest of the season. So, to dig into even the beginnings of that, and dig into those ramifications would require a lot more time than we had at that point in the episode."

Thanks dude
Nick lives either way, Nick is thankful for Clementine trying to save Pete, Pete dies from infection/blood loss, group thinks higher of Clem.
Nick lives either way, Nick is scornful of Clementine, Nick tells group that Clementine let Pete die, Clementine trys to convince them he was bitten, fails.
My two scenarios.
Maybe if you didn't give water to the dying guy Pete lives a few minutes longer. Enough for a few last words maybe.
But yeah, I think he's a goner.
