What happened to Luke?

Really have no idea, he seems too major to just disappear like that for good. But it seems weird with what was said; why would Luke just leave because Kenny told him to get lost. With the walkers everywhere and such.

Part of me feels Kenny attacked or even killed Luke as he wanted to keep Clementine. Maybe extreme but its a possibility.

Also slightly off topic but he could still be Rebecca's baby daddy as when she insists on searching for him and Alvin back at the lodge she says "Dammit Luke" Not Dammit Alvin.

I'm sure Luke will be back next episode but his disappearance is still a puzzle.

    She said "dammit Luke" because Luke insisted on taking Alvin to search for Clem, Nick and Pete. She fears for her husband's life.

  • Kenny: "Luke isn't coming to help us, Clementine!"

    Clem: "How do you know that Kenny?!"

    Kenny: "Because I killed him on that mountain side."

    Although I actually think hhe fled to 'fight another day.' I think he'll be back with a vengeance, and an army.

  • was sumthin said about him tryin to tell kenny something and kenny not having it, so he sent luke away. followin that, i'd think what happened is they saw carver's group show up and kenny wanted to run in and help, luke tried to stop him and said they needed to get some distance, kenny wouldn't have it, and they split up.

    as for him coming to save them... i'm not seeing it. if he wanted to flee carver's on his own, he probably could have, but he brought other people along. people that were friends or had disagreements with carver. people that could have been manipulated into following a person with luke's charisma. i think that with everybody else captured, he'll go on ahead and we wont see him till we reach whatever place up north they're going to.

  • ..I didn't even notice he was missing.. o_o

  • Well. Not sure about coming with an army.
    In the apocalypse people are not very willing to help strangers. If Luke's gonna come with someone, that has to be a guy he knows or that guy has to hate Carver a looot.
    Curious how telltale are going to play this one.

    This is really puzzling and worries me a lot. They both left to check the transformer when the power at the lodge went out. We know Kenny probably doesn't really like Luke all that much but I don't think Kenny would kill him (unless he's that messed up now) so there's no real reason to think he shot Luke. They probably just split up when zombies started showing up and Luke got lost and Kenny found his way back. When the group got captured, Luke might've come back in time to see them leave or figure Carver got them.

    I don't really know but I think later on in episode 3, we'll see Luke again because he seems like a major character (one that might make it to episode 5?? I hope??) Maybe Luke will sneak into the camp and try and free them. Who knows until they finally release the next episode.

  • Luke is a friendly person. I'm sure he could convince some to help him. Also I'm sure there is no shortage of people willing to help bring down Carver, after all he doesn't seem like the nicest or most gracious person to run into.

    Army was bad wording, a saving group if you will. Damn nit pickers :p

  • My guess is that Kenny locked him up somewhere or even shot his leg or something.. I don't think he's dead though.

  • I know Kenny has been an ass throughout season 1 but he would never kill a person like Lilly did.

  • So were ignoring the smashing a guy's head in with a salt lick then? Just making sure.

  • Not sure about comics, but in the show The governor manipulated a large group to attack Ricks group. Not once but twice.

  • Luke was probably trying to convince Kenny to come with him and leave the lodge behind because he knew they couldn't take on Carver by themselves. Kenny promptly told him where he could shove that plan of action, then headed back to the lodge while Luke escaped to fight another day.

  • Well. I meant that he could run into people like those dudes who split Christa and Clem.

  • True. He could also run into people like Clem and Christa. I'm just saying it think he will gather a group and try to bring Carver's prison camp to the ground.

    Though based on every movie, show, and game ever made only an antagonists can manipulate other people to work for them. We need an awesome anti hero to show up with Luke cough Nate cough cough

    " Part of me feels Kenny attacked or even killed Luke as he wanted to keep Clementine. Maybe extreme but its a possibility. " ...this again?

    Nothing personal but, are you out of your fucking mind? This whole Kenny killed Luke theory is nuts! Did we even play the same game in Season1? Didn't you see Kenny's character development in Season1? He might have lost it a little bit, due to the fact the he lost his whole family and all the people he once cared about and because of the fact that he was surviving all on his own for a very long time, after that happened. But what would make you believe that Kenny killed Luke? A innocent person that didn't try to hurt Kenny, out of anger and envy...that's maybe what Lilly would have done, but not Kenny!

    Luke ran away to look for hair products because he's a giant baby.

  • I just happen to think Luke got attacked off camera. I mean it makes sense in a way he goes out and is unable to make it back because he could of been knocked unconscious or run into some trouble he doesn't strike me as some one who would run away. Even so you could never tell what a person is going to do when it comes to that world.

  • Yeah, that sounds like the most likely scenario considering both their personalities. Unless something we don't know about yet happened to stop Luke this is what I'm leaning toward, not sure why Kenny killing Luke offscreen is such a widespread theory. o.O

  • Why did he kill Larry? Because he wanted to save his family. Why would he kill Luke? To preserve his new family. By Luke taking Clementine away, he is endangering Kenny's plans on rebuilding his family. Luke is the only thing standing in the way from him restoring his new family. I'm not saying he killed Luke, but saying that Kenny would never kill a person like Lilly did is a bit of a stretch

  • What I'm hoping is that Luke will come back probably end of episode 3 or beginning of episode 4.

    Remember the previews for the next episode where the huge wave of zombies come? I was thinking maybe it was Luke's doing luring them into Carver's base in order to save everyone sort of like what happened in 28 days later. I really hope telltale does something different and not kill off Luke lol. He was probably one of my favorites from the new group

    1. Luke may go 'lone wolf' and try to save the group in episode 4, after all I assume he knows where carver's base is located.
    2. Or he may find Christa and both will save Clem
  • Have Luke show up with Bonnie and a tank just to decapitate her :)

    Would kind of make my day since I didn't like Bonnie since 400 days.

    Have the Protagonists be the ones that assault with a vengeance for a change.

    I'm worried now. If Kenny has done anything to him then he's in trouble.

  • I think that if you ask Kenny about it twice he gets a slightly ashamed look or something like that IIRC. I can't be certain as I didn't get that in my playthrough. Still sounds like jumping to conclusions based on a small detail.

    This is why I'm leery of trusting other people's interpretations of scenes I haven't seen myself. I just checked and the first question about Luke gets the "told him to take a hike" dialogue. The second question basically insinuates that Clem doesn't think Kenny can handle things on his own ("I don't know, maybe we should find Luke"?). Kenny takes the shot at Johnny and has a triumphant look on his face as he glances at Clem. I'm not seeing how anyone can mistake that look for shame or guilt but there you have it.

  • I don't think Kenny would be that selfish to kill Luke so that he can have Clem. Like Carver said "he finally cut and run" Luke will come back later he made a smart move to stay back. Before the bridge scene he told Carlos "its better not to keep all eggs in one basket" or something like that, quiet nice foreshadowing there.
