Sequence break/plothole in Episode 1
Slight spoilers for Episode 1 ahead:
When Lee starts looking for medicine for Larry in the drug store, the player can walk around and explore a bit. If you talk to Doug, he asks if you want to go outside. Looking around outside, if you focus on the TV store, you have the option to either look or use a TV remote. Selecting the remote will make Doug program it and turn on the TVs.
This is all well and good... but this is before visiting the office of the drug store, which is where you get the remote--to the player, Lee basically materializes this remote out of thin air before pulling it out of his pocket--it's a plothole!
I wondered if this was a known "bug" in the other versions of the game, and if it was something left in as a joke, but watching this video of the part in the PS3 version, the option to use the TV remote is not there (it's at about 2:00):
That's about it. Not at all a ginormous gamebreaking bug or something, but that did stick out. I was playing the latest Google Play version on a Nexus 7 2013, if that matters for some reason.
