  • The human being part still applies, you know. It seems like you are ignoring that.

    Arvo was human being. I suppose you feel empathy for him also? Or is there even more double standards?

    Yes. Is not a excuse, but it tends to be more of a natural reaction that 'Just leave her'.

    Again, the situations were very different when Kenny was angry at Clementine and when Bonnie was angry at Clementine.

    There is no double standard because, even if the situations are vaguely similar, Bonnie leaving Clem to die-after leaving her to die anyway by agreeing to leave with all the supplies- is a far worse reaction. Kenny´s reaction is far more understable that Bonnie´s reaction.

    I suppose you agree with me that Kenny was also a prick for wanting to leave Arvo to die? Arvo is a human being after all? Mike and Bonnie wanted to leave Kenny behind instead of Arvo, Clementine just happened to be the one to get hurt in middle of it. And again, Bonnie still hated Clementine for what she did and she had no reason to feel pity for her, she didnt care about Jane and wanted/had to leave Kenny behind.

  • Huhwhat? Sarita died because she got bit. Cutting off the arm is an attempt to "save" Saritas life and if the established lore is right then it would have worked if she wouldn't have screamed and got herself bit again.

    Sarita's death is her own fault.

    Also because the only time she does blame Clem is when Bonnie herself is the one who got him freaking killed.

    Nobody should have tried to approach him knowing that he was on thin ice.

    Kenny is the one who decides to steal the supplies and Katjaa agrees with him, no matter what player does.

    They didnt know if it was abandoned, Kenny and Katjaa only assumed so (and they were wrong).

    It's pretty damn clear that she doesn't like where the group is going, that she doesn't agree with most decisions. And that is a perfectly acceptable reason for leaving, what makes her(as well as Mike, and Arvo) a backstabbing traitor is the fact that she attempts to steal all the supplies, and the only working vehicle for miles away from children, the person who found the supplies, and the person who got the truck running in the first place.

    Having a working car is too good to pass on, and Kenny didnt leave them any option. If they wanted to take that car to ensure their own survival, they had to do it in secret. Taking all supplies was shitty move from Clems point of view, but from their side necessary to ensure own survival. The supplies were Arvo's property after all, so they didnt exactly steal, just take back what was his.

    Some, but not much. Since, you know, the figth with the russians. was Arvo´s fault and that her sister got killed was also Arvo´s fault. Which is my main issue with Bonnie, real.

    Again, the situations were very different when Kenny was angry at Clementine and when Bonnie was angry at Clementine.

    And? Does that make leaving Clem to die anymore justificable?

    I suppose you agree with me that Kenny was also a prick for wanting to leave Arvo to die? Arvo is a human being after all?

    Arvo is also the reason Clem´s group nearly got killed. Is a far more valid reason to hate somebody.

    Mike and Bonnie wanted to leave Kenny behind instead of Arvo, Clementine just happened to be the one to get hurt in middle of it.

    This is not even about that. Stop changing the subject. This about Bonnie being happy to leave Clem to die.

    And again, Bonnie still hated Clementine for what she did and she had no reason to feel pity for her,

    No reason apart that Clem bleeding to death? In any case, when Mike tried to come to help her Bonnie told her to just leave her, showing she not only did not care if Clem died but that she wanted Clem dead.

    The point is that all the supplies went to benefiting the whole group. Kenny and Katjaa don't hoard it to themselves. Bonnie, Mike, and Arvo try to. As I said previously, as far as they knew, it was abandoned. They didn't have time to stick around to see if anyone would come back, they just escaped from a madhouse, and they needed to get out of there fast (not to mention, people were injured). They didn't know when they'd come across supplies again, so they had to take them. And it's still not a valid comparison, because Kenny wasn't stealing from his own group with the intentions of fucking them over to save his own sorry ass, like Bonnie and co. He stole from The Stranger with the intentions of helping the group and his family.

    Then maybe, just maybe, they should have waited until it was a smarter time to leave? It was not the time or the place to carry out their escape, had they went with Kenny, Jane, and Clem, they would have seen all the cars they came across. That would have been the perfect time to leave and find another working car. Again, I still don't think that's a good justification, maybe if they planned to take Clem and AJ with them it would be different. But they didn't, they were leaving two kids to die in the cold.

    You mean, why was he breathing heavily after tearing througth a walker horde with a knife and (determinantly) a piece of glass, figth the Stranger, strangle him with one hand and (determinantly) a shot in the gut, and losing a lot of blood? I don´t know.

    Even if none of that determinant shit happens, he is in same condition.

    He looked less sick, and more tired and pale to me.

    He was bit and the bacteria/all other shit from Walker bite spread through his body and he got sick. If you get bitten, the bacteria spreads pretty fast.

    You said 'if they managed to stop her for bleeding out'. I said there was no way to do that.

    Thats why i said "if", not "they could".

    The point is that Sarita was not as good as dead-there was a chance.

    She was bitten, she was nervous and heart rate was up, the bacteria from bite would just spread before they got out from the horde to safe location.

    Saving your own life so some maniac doesnt kill you is justified.

    Arvo is also the reason Clem´s group nearly got killed. Is a far more valid reason to hate somebody.

    Clem or Kenny is the reason they almost got killed. Arvo's group never had intentions to kill any, they simply wanted to rob them.

    No reason apart that Clem bleeding to death? In any case, when Mike tried to come to help her Bonnie told her to just leave her, showing she not only did not care if Clem died but that she wanted Clem dead.

    And yet again, the situations were completely different. Bonnie didnt pull the trigger, she just didnt care enough about Clementine to die for her.

  • The point is that all the supplies went to benefiting the whole group. Kenny and Katjaa don't hoard it to themselves. Bonnie, Mike, and Arvo do.

    As far as i can see it, they were not part of their group after what Kenny did and said.

    As I said previously, as far as they knew it was abandoned.

    No, they didnt know, they assumed. Learn the difference. They had plently of reason to assume it wasnt abandoned. There were lights on, keys inside, no signs of struggle & blood, bunch of supplies in the trunk.

    They didn't know when they'd come across supplies again, so they had to take them.

    Well neither did Bonnie and Mike, so why not take everything to ensure the survival of their group?

    And it's still not a valid comparison, because Kenny wasn't stealing from his own group, with the intentions of fucking them over to save his own sorry ass, like Bonnie and co.

    Bonnie and Mike took Arvo's supplies and Arvo with them, because they didnt want to go north and Kenny would not let them take the car. Kenny would have also left Arvo to die even if they came with Kenny to north. If they didnt steal from Kenny, Kenny would have stolen the car from them. Kenny was ignoring his whole group and trying to drag everyone else down with him. He wasnt a member of group anymore in my eyes, he just wanted to do the "right" thing for AJ, risking everyone else while doing it.

    Again, I still don't think that's a good justification, maybe if they planned to take Clem and AJ with them it would be different. But they didn't, they were leaving two kids to die in the cold.

    They knew Clementine wouldnt leave Kenny behind and Kenny sure as hell wouldnt give AJ to urban and ex drug addict, who cut herself (not that Kenny knew about this). Kenny wanted to leave Arvo to die and was about to risk Bonnie, Mike, Clementine, Aj, Jane and himself to die from cold in the north, because of a story. How is that any better plan?

  • She really, really doesn't, there is literally nothing she could have done to save her and she was already bitten when you get there, you have a choice to cut off her arm but let's be serious here, there was no way that was going to work because assuming she wouldn't get eaten for screaming in pain she would have bleeded out anyway before she made it out of the herd, so she was really already dead, if anyone is to blame is Kenny, if he hadn't been so adamant on getting his petty revenge and had just shot Carver in the head they wouldn't have wasted so much time in something so pointless and stupid.

Next day the Stranger finds her wife and daughter dead and he takes his wife's head with him. He was broken and went insane. After talking with Clem for long time through walkie talkie, he decided that Clementine would be more safe with him than Lee and he decided to kidnap her. While Lee went to investigate, he got bit and eventually dies from this or from Clem shooting him.

    Are you even reading yourself? In the Zombie Apocalypse, robbing somebody is the same as killing them. Do you honestly think they could have survived withouth supplies, out in the cold?

    They didnt have anything else but ammo and guns anyway. Also, you can always find new stuff. Might aswell say that if Arvo's group didnt try to steal from them, they (clems group) would have starved to death.

    Her actions lend to Sarita´s death, so is her fault. I am not saying is all her fault-Sarita could have not gotten herself bitten in the first place- but it was mostly Clem´s fault.

    What the heck do you want her to do?

    That those were her only choices does not change anything.

    Sarita got bit in the middle of a herd. She was good as gone at that point.

    Even if we accept that, you should also admit that Clem basically killed her.

    By your standards maybe, but that doesn't change the fact that all the supplies were shared with the group. He didn't keep any supplies to himself.

    They saw a car, with the doors open, key in the ignition, with lots of supplies in the trunk. It doesn't make sense to leave the car like this, unless they were in a hurry and had to leave, lets say because of walkers. Prior to The Stranger's debut, it made sense that the vehicle was abandoned.They put what they knew together, and came to the conclusion that it's either abandoned or somebody may or may not be coming back. They didn't have the time to wait around to see, and seeing as they had kids, and injured members with them, they had to take it.

    Bonnie and Mike were with a group already, they were choosing to leave and steal from their own group at the worst possible time. Kenny wasn't planning to ditch his group, it was a genuine concern that they didn't know when they'd find more supplies for the whole group, seeing as they're shelter was ransacked by bandits. Again, because they already had a group to ensure the survival of.

    Kenny wouldn't let them take the car, because he got it running. They just met Arvo a few hours ago, whose group ambushed theirs, with the intent to rob them and kill them. Yeah, makes perfect sense for him to say "let bygones be bygones, come to my group, and become another mouth to feed." Oh my God, Kenny didn't steal the car from anyone, he got it running by himself. It was his car. He planned to go to Wellington from the beginning of season 2, and so did Christa with Clem. He wasn't going to change his course of action because of a few people he just met a few days ago. Yes, in your eyes he wasn't, and it's such a terrible thing that he's worried about the safety of an infant isn't it.

    The point is that they didn't care about the survival of anyone in the group that they supposedly cared about but themselves. If Kenny was so dangerous, and they cared so much, they would have at least tried to take Clem and AJ to safety.. But they didn't, so clearly he wasn't as much of a threat as they said, or they just didn't give a shit like they pretended to. It wasn't a story, because several other people had heard of it. Christa thought it was legitimate, and Kenny's quote makes perfect sense, "where there's smoke, there's fire." Sounded a lot better than going down to Texas, to God know's where, or back to Howe's, when last time we saw it was infested with Walkers.
