Ideas for Episode 5
-MINOR SPOILERS FOR AMC's THE WALKING DEAD SEASON 4 AHEAD-
If you've seen the finale to Season 4 of The Walking Dead on AMC, you know how there were numerous flashbacks to Rick and Herschel before the prison fell. While some may argue this took away from the action of the episode, I thought, if implemented properly, it could work immensely well.
In Episode 5, Clementine could be all alone for some reason. She could be fighting a horde, running from a person, or simply living off the land in the abandoned, snow-covered Wellington. Either way, it could routinely switch back and forth between Clementine surviving in Wellington to Lee teaching Clementine a few things or two in history in Crawford's classroom. You could make decisions as both Clementines.
Then it could also have a subtle and quiet ending (The episode, that is) with one decision: Helping or not helping. Clementine could be walking alone around a building when she stumbles around a corner and sees a single man getting attacked by three or four walkers twenty-ish yards/meters away. Then the final decision comes.
[Leave Him]
Clementine turns around and continues on her way to the sound of the man screaming.
[Save Him]
Clementine runs over and puts and kills the walkers. She looks at the poor, starving man in the cold. She yells "Do you need help up?" over the sound of the blustering snow. The man shakes his head and gets up, and the two of them run to find shelter.
