  • Ben abandons Clementine, Lee doesn't go off on him. Lee's boiling point was immediate harm to Clementine or her group not alleged or unsubstantiated harm.

    Maybe so, but attacking/killing someone after an accident has already occurred isn't protecting anybody. Its just about taking your frustrat

  • I have no qualms about him dieing whatsoever. Frankly, I think it was a mistake that they bought him back for S2 rather then leaving him dead in S1. I found Jane a much more interesting character anyway.

    The only time (I remember in Season 2) he was a physical threat to a group member. He was a threat at other times though, like completely ignoring Clem as she was freezing to death because he was in another one of his rages beating up Arvo.

    Not helping Clem out more in that situation does not constitute him being a threat. Punching an enemy of the group three times after he mouthed off after getting group members hurt/killed does not mean he is a threat to be worried about. Certainly not to the extent that he would be a personal threat to another group member.

    I read it as Jane has realised she needs to take AJ too, to protect him, in which case Kenny can't know because as Jane has already said, Kenny would never let the baby go.

    There is never any indication of that. Where are you getting that idea from? Even when you criticize her for the manipulation, she never says anything about this. She just said it needed to be done in order to show Kenny's true colors (a really illegitimate way to do that.. by the way). If you decided to leaver her, she says "I did this for you". She never says anything about the baby at all. Regardless, she was willing to kill another human being in order to try and prove a point. She had no right to do that.

    But that isn't what happened, big difference between died and killed. Jane said there was an accident, she could have fallen over, or ran into a walker. An accident means the baby died, not necessarily that Jane killed him, but as Jane already knew (and was trying to prove to Clem) Kenny snaps instantly before she can explain (with whatever false story she'd have given).

    Jane manipulated him into thinking she killed his kid. That was the entire point. Of course she couldn't just come out and say she did that, as it would have turned Clem against her in that situation. She did the next best thing. She was intentionally shady about it. She didn't even try explaining herself. Saying it was an "accident" one time doesn't just make everything go away, and she knew that. A parent who thinks someone just murdered their baby isn't going to be immediately rational, sorry. Jane would have needed to explain herself in that situation. That would have gone against the agenda though, because she wanted to fight. That was the entire point. The point wasn't to sit down and try to rationalize with Kenny. That would have been counter productive/ pointless to what she wanted to achieve.

  • Well i think its all Fking BullSit because there is no real good end. And than people think it is a good game because people sometime cry about it but i was just angry when i saw all endings. Everythin begins good like jane and luke where getting closer and than luke dies (the begin of it) than half of the group leaves like for no reason and than you have to chouse to kill some1 of youre best freinds. yea you will cry because of that but still it was a good game the ending thou. The moost people would just look away but than you can leave kenny and go alloon anyway and if you go away with him it ends there. I dont like it but still good game after all

    refusing to help the other members of the group just because they didn't agree with him, pretending that a bitten Duck was okay, going crazy with the whole "we need a boat" thing, getting drunk when Lee wasn't there and someone had to check on Clem, encouraging Lee to kill Ben, refusing to go with the others and look for Clem just because he didn't like Lee, shooting at Carver's men when they had taken the whole group as hostages, trying to instigate a suicide-war with Carver's men after the truck's ride, fighting with Luke (or anybody else when Luke isn't there) when the group needed to stay together, acting as he was the leader when nobody chose him as such and causing Mike and Bonnie' s decision to steal everything and leave., yelling to Jane and Clem while he was driving a car in a place filled with zombies.

    I'm not going to address these (though I would disagree with you on almost all accounts), as they have nothing to do with the Jane situation. None of those are comparable to personally being a direct threat to a group member... as in none of those have anything to do with Kenny intentionally inflicting harm/violence on a member of the group. No comparison at all.

    Again, your opinion.

    You don't have to follow up every statement with this. Of course its my opinion. That goes without saying.

    I watched the whole scene, and I had the impression that Jane didn't use all of her skills during the fight, while Kenny did.

    Completely baseless argument. It doesn't matter anyway. She was trying to kill him, that is all that matters.

    Oh and right then he was totally crazy, do you really think that he would have believed Jane if she said "HE'S ALIVE; JUST STOP THIS!!!

    You don't know either way, so there is no argument to make. Just because you personally don't think it would have worked doesn't mean there was not merit in trying. And I mean come on.. if she told Kenny the baby was alive he would have no reason to continue fighting unless she was still trying to kill him.

    As umbr44 wrote, she didn't say she killed Aj,

    Because that would have been hilariously counter productive and pointless to what she was trying to achieve overall. Clem would never get on board with her if she used that excuse to make Kenny mad. It wouldn't prove anything.

    it looked like an accident.

    No it didn't. There was nothing to look at. All there was to go on was Jane saying it was an accident... just one time.. with no explanation or reasoning at all. Her intention was to make it look like she killed the baby in Kenny's eyes. If she wanted to rationalize and give a legitimate explanation for her actions she wouldn't have done what she did in the first place. Again, it would have been counter productive.

    And I trusted Jane and knew she would't do such a thing,

    You knew she wouldn't have done such a thing? How? We know she abandoned her sister. We know she wanted to abandon a defenseless Sarah. We know she wanted to abandon Kenny. So why would she not abandon a baby? She never gave us any reason to believe her at all. There wasn't really any reason to infer that she didn't do it.

    I understood her plan from what she said to Clem before the fight started, it was easy to understand what was really going on if you just focused on those words.

    So you understood she was willing to kick Kenny where it hurt the most in order to try and draw a reaction out of him so she could have an excuse to leave him behind? It was a terrible thing to do.

    As I wrote, that wasn't the first time that I considered Kenny a danger, or that he tried to kill/get someone killed

    He never intentionally tried to kill another group member before.

    It's the f*cking apoclaypse, there's nothing weird if a newborn baby dies in a world filled with zombies during a blizzard.

    Okay, then it should have been easy to explain what happened. Again, she couldn't do that though because it went against the agenda.

    That's not a good reason to kill someone.

    He only killed her because she was trying to kill him. He was fighting for his life.

    And that wasn't Kenny's kid, btw.

    Who cares? He took care of that baby from the moment that it was born. He helped bring him into the world, and he clearly cared very much about him. Alvin Jr. was family to him.

    I shot Kenny because I thought it was the right thing. And when it was revealed AJ was still alive I was just...speechless.

    Oh god, I just can't believe I killed Kenny...

  • edited December 2014

    All I'm saying is that Jane clearly knew that Kenny wasn't emotionally stable at that time, she took advantage of that in the most manipulative way. I know it's not the best comparison, but the way I see it is, it's not unlike telling a friend who you know has an eating disorder about all the food you ate today, and how you never gain weight no matter how much you eat, and isn't that just awesome that you don't have to worry about that etc. This is very likely to cause a breakdown for the friend with the eating disorder, and you look like a heartless, insensitive, asshole because you knew this friend wasn't stable. Then lets say that you explain that you pushed the friend to their breaking point because you were trying to make a point to another friend who could be being influenced by the friend with the eating disorder. Under no circumstances, even if it's for another's benefit, is it ok to do that to a person who you know is not in the right mind. That is what Jane did to Kenny by implying that she let the baby die, when she knew how much he cared about AJ, when she knew how fragile his mindset was. Not to mention, it just plain rubs me the wrong way that Jane came up with this plan to force Clem into going with her. I'm not condoning Kenny killing Jane, but I won't say that she didn't bring it on herself either.

    Except he didn't become Carver or Lilly. Kenny didn't kill a defenseless, innocent bystander(Doug/Carley) due to his paranoia, nor did he kill people because they were weak/didn't follow his leadership. Kenny killed a woman who was actively attacking him, and purposely gave him the impression that she let a baby die/killed a baby to bring him to his breaking point. You can say that he instigated the physical fight, but she's the one who pulls a knife on him, slashes at his stomach, and then pursues him after he backs off. She even goes on to dig her fingers into his already wounded eye, I think by then she had already proved her point that Kenny was unstable, and yet she continues on. Why? because she wants to kill him. Jane was an active threat to Kenny's life, unlike Carley/Doug and Carver's followers. Jane came looking for a fight to the death, she wanted to "end it". She was playing a sick mind game from the beginning to get her way, and there is no excuse for toying with a person's emotions like she did.

Even though it may seem like you're both at each other's throats here, from an outsider's perspective this is giving me a lot of really cool insight into what both people in Camp Kenny and Camp Jane think.

  • How did he cause Luke's death? He had nothing against him what so ever, and he ran because of the zombies.
    basically Sarah alongside Sarita's death - they never meant that to happen. Kenny didn't blame Sarah though. He just picked Arvo so he could unleash his anger upon him.

    Arvo started a fight - because he wanted to confront his bully. Kenny beat him up again and again - so he stood up against the guy who hurt him again and again.

  • I can understand why people killed Kenny... But the way I saw it, when Clem shot Kenny, he died thinking he failed Clem and AJ... At least if Clem stayed with Kenny there was a sense of hope created he would heal (slowly, gradually) with his new family; if she stayed in Wellington, he would still be a broken man, but one that fulfilled his duty and could finally die in peace.

  • Punching an enemy of the group three times after he mouthed off after getting group members hurt/killed does not mean he is a threat...

    He never once turned around to help Clem, even when she called to him and brought him back from where his mind had vanished to. It wasn't a threat aimed AT Clem, but it still makes him a threat to other people. If it was just Clem and Jane, Clem would have survived, just Clem and Kenny and Clem may have frozen to death by the time Kenny came back to his senses.

    There is never any indication of that.

    She says in the car that Kenny would never let them take AJ, at that point I'm not sure she was intending to take him. However when it comes down to the fight, as people keep stating she could have told Kenny the baby was still alive at any point (he may not have believed her but she could have said it.) The only logical reason not to, is because she intends to take the baby with her as well.

    If she didn't want to take the baby, all she had to do was not walk Clem to the car with AJ in it, if she was cold enough to kill someone over a point she'd be cold enough to leave the baby wouldn't you say?...

    Jane manipulated him into thinking she killed his kid.

    How? She walks in and says "He's" whilst showing more emotion than Jane ever has...then whilst Kenny is gone she comes out of it to tell Clem to stay out of it. Then Kenny comes in, barges past Clem and accuses Jane of killing the baby to which she says she didn't and it was an accident. She never manipulates him into thinking she killed AJ.

    She knew he would assume that and not listed to what she said true. But she didn't manipulate him, this is exactly what she was trying to show Clem. Kenny came straight in on the attack, he never once gave Jane a proper chance to explain. Again she knew he wouldn't, but she didn't make Kenny do anything.

Well that's kind of hypocritical since he was killing her - he pissed her off too, such as calling her nothing. He acted as if she was a punching bag - exactly like Arvo, just so he can let lose his stress.

    Maybe Kenny should take some anger management classes from his friend, Walter..

    Yes.. I know. That was before the fight even started really. And he said multiple times. Not just one time. What he said was false.

  • All you said was purely facts that aren't true - how do you know he walked 100 times, or knew where it was safe?

    Also - Arvo didn't force any of them, he just said that it was safe - it was the group's choice to walk across the ice, not his. Luke's death was a situation which could not have been forseen by Arvo or forced by him. It was the groups call as to whether they should walk straight or not - and they did.

    And "Rooskies are devious" is kind of stereotypical approach to the whole thing, is it not? Putin is just one Rooskie, not all.

  • Jane wasn't finished when she put her knife away, and she knew Kenny wasn't finished. She knew Kenny wasn't going to try anything while she had a knife in her hand. That would be suicide and not worth the risk.

    It would defeat the entire purpose of her plan if she truly wanted to stop the incident right there. After she puts her knife away she says: "Don't you come near me". If Kenny listened to her and did what she said, she would have proven pretty much nothing. She then would have had to admit that the baby was actually still alive and all alone in an abandoned truck. She would have looked like a fool.

    Kenny started on her first. What was his reason then? She even put her knife back in her pocket when she thought he stopped.

  • It very clearly went beyond defending herself. She was the one who turned a physical scrum into a fight to the death. She was the one who purposely provoked Kenny into an altercation in the first place.
