Episode 1: "I know your dad had a heart attack but FUCK HIM"
Episode 2: After seeing Mark legless "Hey guys, I heard the meat is delicious, Mark said it takes like human meat!" After Kenny stereotypes Lee, "Oh and since your from Florida, do you shoot people and claim self defense?"
Episode 3: "Carley, we'll bang okay" *To Lily while she's tied up "If you wanted me, all you had to do was speak up and make a move!"
Episode 4: "Vernon, If even touch Clementine I'll feed your legs to the walkers and laugh happily as bury you with that boy and his dog" "Ben, you had one FUCKING job to do! ONE FUCKING JOB AND YOU FUCK THAT UP AS WELL! Your now walker bait"
Episode 5: "For all the pain you caused me, FUCK YO WIFE AND KID AND FUCK YOU. I'm taking Clem back with me where she belongs and is comfortable and you can take your wife's walker head and shove straight up YOUR ASS!"
Seriously we needed to tell that asshole this, he acted like we didn't care for her and he knew the whole story and he was such holier than thou but he alone was a horrible person.
"Maybe I don't know Clem's birthday. But at least I know she hears more than she repeats, understands more than you tell her and makes up her … moreown mind what she's going to do next. If you think you're going to fool her a second goddamed time, you got a lot more to learn than her motherfucking birthday."
Fucking boss. I wish they literally put this IG.
Conversation between Lee & Clem at the Savannah mansion:
CLEM: I don't want anyone else to die.
LEE: No one else is going to die. I promise.
CLEM: (cross) You made a promise like that before, and Duck died anyway.
LEE: Oh, I'm sorry. Excuse me for trying to scrape together whatever optimism we have left in our miserable post-apocalyptic lives. I should spank myself for being such a naive idiot. How about this: It's likely we're all going to get killed in Crawford, while Omid's leg becomes gangrenous. Taking into account that you don't have the experience or tools to amputate, he'll die in considerable agony, leaving you completely alone in an empty house. Either you'll starve to death, walkers will break in and eat you alive, or - and this is the worst case scenario - a gang of pedophiles will find their way in and violate you multiple times, after which you can only pray they'll kill you. (PAUSE) Is that better?

"Hold on Ben I'm sure Kenny can wait 5 minutes; Okay Clem this stranger guy on the radio is a nutjob who is trying to fool you into thinking he has your parents. You know the people in this world are messed up like the St Johns. So don't talk to him anymore okay and just to make sure I'm going to take out the batteries that Caroug for some reason wasted on a broken radio Also your parents are probably dead Clem or if not they have left to go looking for you, sorry if that hurts but I need to be honest with you like you tell me to do"
Well, chastising your children when they do something wrong is part and parcel of being a parent. In this case, the "wrong" thing that the child is doing is pointing out that you're trying to placate her with empty promises that you both know you can't keep. Coming from a girl who quite recently watched a happy-go-lucky kid slowly dying in his mother's arms, I think a little cynicism here is forgivable if not warranted.
Yeah, man. Way to tell that 9 year old girl off. * claps once *
Hey, telling off children is part and parcel of being a parent. So thanks.
(If it helps, I usually pick the "Neither do I" option. Usually.)

No offence, but in this particular case, I think Clementine's precocious wisdom can go throw itself off a cliff. Let's suppose Lee tried to make that promise not so much out of a desire to placate Clem, but to push his own need to protect the group into overdrive. Perhaps Clem THINKS she knows Lee can't keep his promise, but Lee doesn't. That's why I get a little pissed off when the game makes Lee apologize to Clem if we click on the "no one else is going to die" option. Maybe my Lee WOULD be just a little batshit crazy, damn it. Maybe when he promises to Clem that no one else will die, HE FUCKING MEANS IT, and even Clem is somewhat taken aback by his intensity.
This is why I think you and I will always be at each other's throats - metaphorically, of course. You think Clem should blow Lee's brains out before he turns, I think Clem should tell "reality" to go fuck itself and walk away.

Honesty is always the best policy. Bravo, Mr. Morgan!

Episode 4:
"Dog food? Well, considering that we're still on the verge of imminent starvation after losing most of our supplies... Who's up for rations?!"
"Just a heads up, but Chuck died alone in the sewers. May we mourn him, if just for a moment?"
