How and why didn't Kenny give up in Season 1 Eposide 3 ?

edited April 2014 in The Walking Dead

We all know Kenny only lived to protect his family ( Katjaa and Duck ) ...

So , if there's a situation , When you watch your own family die all of a sudden , and there's nothing is the

world you would not care about , How Could you continue living and not give up ( even if you were a man that would be tough )

In Kenny's situation , All world's gone , your family's also gone in front of your eyes and you couldn't say goodbye to them , you only have people who don't know you that much , yet you continue to live ?? that's weird , because what's the point of living afterthat anyway ?

    "You don't just end it because it's hard. You stick it out - and help the folks you care about."

    Wise words from Kenny himself.

    I thought when he said that line he was blaming Katjaa for not staying with him , and I don't know a kind of man like Kenny would live to care about people he only saw months ago

    "You don't just end it because it's hard. You stick it out - and help the folks you care about." Wise words from Kenny himself.

  • That sums it perfectly.

  • he's not a suicidal guy, plus he still had people to care about like lee and clem (even though he didn't show it at times for some others i have no doubt in my mind that he didn't still at least care about them a little bit)

    I didn't mean he would suicide , but something like what Nick did at the start of eposide 2

  • Because he hates suicide. He can't stand it. Kenny is the type of guy to keep on trying and living no matter what. He had every reason to put a bullet in his head right next to Katjaa in Episode 3, but he didn't because giving up isn't who he is. For better or for worse, he keeps going on.

    Wait, you find weird not to kill yourself after having a hard time. You don't just kill yourself when you are sad, you try to fight it and overcome it, not just put a bullet in your head. Suicide is a real serious thing man.

  • I think that the reason Kenny didn't kill himself was because A: He hated suicide and was very mad that Katjaa killed herself. B: He felt like he still had a responsibility to get Clementine and the group to the boat.

  • what nick did is pretty much suicide :P he was gonna let himself waste there till he dies

  • umm no , to be clear , you remember what Jim did ( if I remember his name will ) in the show of season 1 - if you ever watched the show - he just sat besides a tree and didn't want to move or something like that .

  • He still had the love of his life to find: Boat.

    Don't you ever bring up that name again. Boat was a cheating fuckwit that left to be with Vernon. I'd say that Boat is telltale's version of Carl: annoying and doesn't know when to stay in the fucking boatshed.

    He still had the love of his life to find: Boat.

    One of the reasons I love the guy, he's a fighter.

  • he's a fighter he hated suicide he had one more task to get the group to the boat deciding how you treated him if treated him good your like brothers but anyway he's the guy that doesn't just give up when everything seems lost that's why he is my favorite

  • I wouldn't say they don't know him that much. They're the people watching his back, keeping him alive, and he's keeping them alive too. He's also known them for....about a few months at that point maybe? There was a time skip between episode 101 and 102. Also, maybe he just didn't want to die. If you're left alone with no reason to live other than to live, you might still choose to live.

    But I do think it was very impressive how he still got shit done directly after his family died.

  • Yh because he was bit,they asked if he wanted to put a bullet inside his head whom he refused.If that what are you trying to explain I was just clarifying.
