How did they not hear Clem banging on that _____?

How did Marlon and Brody not hear Clem smashing that lock with a brick? It's not like she was pulling a Shawshank and timing the smashes to thunder. I don't see how they didn't hear it.

  • Clearly. Still bothers me lol.

    Plot-deafness

  • Well they were yelling and it was storming...though if I were telltale I woulda had Clem time her hits with the thunder...

  • This and that awful hand grenade trap were the only 2 things that really bothered me this episode.

  • I'd have done something else entirely, like find a metal bar (like a piece of the metal accent fencing around the walls) to use to leverage the lock and break it open quietly. Like, put a piece of rebar inside the lock loop, twist the shit out of it and pop it open.

  • The censorship here makes me laugh I didn't know her and violet were that loud is my future episode answer.

  • What an interesting title.

  • I think it’s because they were arguing and also because of the storm that was happening around them

  • Nah, cause they were too busy banging it out themselves.

  • awful hand grenade trap

    That bothered me too. Where did the grenade come from? It looked like someone threw it in there. Also, wouldn’t they be able to hear the pin being pulled when they opened the latch?

  • When the camera cuts to inside the crawl space with the food you can see the grenade hanging by the hatch opening. You can hear the pin being pulled and the spoon kick off when Clem opens the hatch.

  • Also, I’m kinda bothered the other kids didn’t hear clem yelling for help when Brody’s walker pulled her down? She opened the doors for a seconf and I’m pretty sure they were ourside with Marlon

  • It took Clem a minute to kill walker Brody. I imagined the kids didn't get into the courtyard until just after Clem fell back into the basement.

  • That makes sense

  • Lol, everyone was going deaf, including when Clementine wS banging in the Be ment door and screaming.

    Plot-deafness

  • I wondered that too, along with the grenade scene when a actual frag grenade blows up and somehow their is still salvageable food in the basement and not an ounce of damage to the floor or nothing. The walkers are even still sitting there hanging out like nothing ever happened like "sup clem, nice seeing ya again. You left with a bang last time" pun.

    I can imagine they were arguing real loud and maybe they just assumed it was thunder. The game played a large role in making the smashing sound sound louder than it is. Sounded like the titanic blowing up.

  • I know it was hanging there, I saw it the first time I played, so after 5 seconds "should have gone off by then" it randomly bounces to the centre of the hole? It made no sense at all, a pipe-bomb with a long fuse that gets ignited when the hatch is opened would have been much better, she could have noticed the hissing sound and peeked inside only to see the fuse being near it's end. Voila proper trap scene.

  • I´m just glad I finished off the walker couple. Nasty people. They kill themselves yet still don't want anybody else to have their food.

  • Besides I think Brody was a little "Light Headed"

    :joy:
    Granted, I had a different thought due to another spoiler, but man!

    Yeah, that is odd.
    Effective shot, though.

    ...Tryin to figure out how I should take that.

    Gotta be dramatic, man!
    The alternative sounds like a Tom and Jerry cartoon.

    @Onmens Nasty people.

    Call down there, Prez.

  • Do you want another Rhysha Rhyona war? Why can't both of our ships coexist peacefully?

    You spelled Louis wrong.

  • Bring on the war, I’ll be eating popcorn on the sidelines while you two fight it out.

  • Admittedly, I probably can't imagine the clones getting too loud.

    You do know how grenades work, right? You pull the pin and let the spoon (the handle looking thing), which is spring loaded and held in place by the pin, you let the spoon fly off and it triggers the fuse inside the grenade. The spoon may not have immediately flipped off. In fact, I'd wager it didn't immediately flip off when she opened the hatch. You can hear it ting when she opens the hatch but it doesn't sound like the spoon ever hit the ground. I'd wager it only flipped when the grenade fell, either the spoon finally flipped and caused the grenade to fall or the grenade falling allowing the spoon to actually flip off.

    Also, real life grenades are unpredictable and can have several seconds of variance between the spoon flipping and it actually detonating, which is why it's stupid to "cook" them (hold it in your hand for a couple seconds before throwing it after letting the spoon flip off so the enemy doesn't have time to throw it back at you). Cooking a grenade only makes you more likely to blow yourself up or have it detonate in your face as you throw it or detonate in mid flight (making it a complete waste) than you are to ensure the enemy can't throw it back. I say all that because a grenade can take extra long to detonate, too. They aren't like video games and movies.

  • Cooking a grenade is pointless because it'd be crazy to try tossing it back.

    I don't understand what you're saying. Can you try to be more clear?

  • Well when one lands at your feet your options are accept your death or try to throw it back.

    I just replayed the episode to get all the collectibles and I paid special attention during that sequence. It wasn't thundering or anything when she went down. It was cloudy and windy, a storm was definitely looking likely, but it wasn't actually storming until after Marlon killed Brody and ran back out.

    Maybe they knew a storm was coming in and thought that her banging on the lock was thunder, maybe, but it just seems really weird.

    Standard frag grenades are fatal up to 5 meters, over 15 feet, and reliably cause casualties (debilitating wounds) up to 50 meters. Unless you can blow the world record standing long jump out of the water (3.7 meters), you're not gonna jump away from a grenade at your feet and live.
