Kenny has a brain?

don't lynch me pls
I think Carlos implied after the beating it could have caused him some type of brain damage (which is probably why after episode 3 Kenny is a lot quicker to anger than usual)
Possibly but I don’t think so. I think he just got more and more frustrated the more desperate as time went on and in the group in struggling to find food and a safe place, not to mention later having to care for a baby. There’s was Sarita’s death of course which also contributed to his increased anger
I don't think so.
Carlos said they won't know if the brain suffered any damage until he wakes up but it was never confirmed or denied if Kenny's brain suffered any damage.
There's never really anything that specifically implies he has brain damage, but it's a fairly safe assumption to make. If he was beaten badly enough to end up unconscious (and seemingly in a coma, given Carlos's "until he wakes up" line), the chances of it causing at least some sort of cognitive damage seems pretty likely.
is it alluded that causes his violent behavior afterward? (Carver, Arvo, Jane)
Well, considering he smacked in the face(right on the eye) several times and the eye is connected to the brain, I think he at least got a serious concussion and some specific trauma.
Like any sort of interesting plot point/idea in season 2, it was immediately dropped
but maybe it could explain how ridiculously stubborn he was acting. but kenny in season 2 is already different than kenny from season 1 in subtle ways, so it's hard to say
What if those hits made him the madman he is in s2 but he's cured from it in anf.#stupidtheories
