  • While I respect your beliefs, I disagree completely!
    Love and pray for someone that just tried to kill me (Lee)?? Allow them the opportunity to try again?? No way!!!

    Now I will say that if more people thought as you, their may be many more survivors and perhaps the world would find a cure and someday the ZA nightmare would end.

    But the simple truth is, those who rely on faith will fall to those without! Those who ignore act's of violence will fall victem to those who embrace it. Now if you are content to die with your beliefs and know upon your death that you remained good and did your best to help other's then you may truely rest in peace!

    I will not simply turn the other cheek and let someone just kill me, leaving Clem alone to suffer.

    I (Lee) risked my life for Larry and in return for my compassion, he tried to kill me. So you would ignore that and just let it go?

    Do me a favor and pray for my soul as I slaughter anyone and everyone that tries to harm me or those I care about!

  • I risked my life to get him pills and he punches me right in the face afterwards. No, I didn't.

    The only threat Larry is to me is the anger that I bring out from him. Fighting about past events is just going to bring up more of those situations in the future.

    Fighting anger with anger is going to get someone killed. Might be Larry, could be you, and it may be someone on the sidelines or the group as a whole, but someone is going to get hurt by continuous fighting. Dark intent feeds on dark deeds. Not saying self defense is a dark deed, but holding onto grudges is.

    Honestly, I wouldn't feel safe if someone who is a convicted felon was just wandering around my daughter and a little girl, even if they did, "save my life". Would I punch them in the face and run off? No. But it's going to take more than a few pills to make me feel comfortable around him.

  • That pic is so... beautiful!

    I gave Larry food because I wanted to show him I'm not that bad of a guy! And he still hated me... Oh well, I still liked that grumpy ol' shit. Shame I crushed his head.

  • **Would I punch them in the face and run off? No. **

    You wouldn't but Larry would and did.. And it wasn't just the punch, it was the punch to knock Lee out or dizzy to leave him for the walkers to eat. It was a punch intended to kill Lee.

    Yes we know Lee was a convicted murder and we know more of the details than Larry did such as if was a fight in which the senator died. It's not like Lee was robbing someone and just killed him. Sure we all may be weary of someone we know was a murderer but Lee only tried to help while he was there and did nothing to anyone to suggest he was a threat to the group. It was Larry that struck the first blow in an attempt to kill Lee. That's why I didn't feed him or Lilly.

    Not knowing exactly what was going to happen in S1E2 I had it in my mind that if the opportunity to kill Larry or leave him to die, I would, so no need to waste food on him. And I was also concerned with how Lilly would react. If for example, Lee had a gun and the option to [Shoot Larry] came up, and I did, I would immediately turn and face Lilly, fully expecting her to shoot at Lee.. He may have had to kill them both. That's my though process and reasons for my decisions when we don't know what the next scene will be.

  • I did it the first time, why? i thought it will make Lilly like me more

  • Exactly. You said you might have to shoot both Larry AND Lilly if you killed her dad. You holding a grudge in that scenario would have taken two lives rather than avoiding future conflict as much as possible, and two lives are saved.

    Larry does save your life if you give him the axe, too. That is why I think that if he really WANTED you dead at the pharmacy, he would have thrown you to the walkers rather than give you a swift punch.

  • LIES! You cant feed Katja!

    I fed Larry after Kaatja, Lilly and Doug rejected the food I tried to give them.

  • To me, I wasn't holding a grudge as per the definition of grudge, I was doing what was needed to survive. It was about ensuring that he did not get the opportunity to try to kill Lee again. That is why I did not give Larry the axe. I wasn't about to hand the man that tried to kill me a weapon.

    You said if we give Larry the axe, that he does save Lee's life, that is totally correct, but we don't know that at the time. It could have become, we give Larry the axe to help with the fence, then as Lee turns his back, Larry plunges the axe into the back of Lee's head. I don't think it's accurate to argue the outcome of a scene after the episode is played because in the moment, while playing, we don't know what will happen.

    That's why I mentioned about having to watch Lilly.. If in the moment, if I shot Larry, and I knew for a fact that Lilly would not try to kill me, then I wouldn't have had to watch her to see if I had to defend myself against her.

    There's just too much risk and unknowns and I for one would rather error on the side of caution rather than put faith or trust in someone that tried to kill me.

    That is why I think that if he really WANTED you dead at the pharmacy, he would have thrown you to the walkers rather than give you a swift punch.

    In a sence, Larry did throw Lee to the walker's. He did not "push" him into them, but he did punch Lee hard enough to knock him down in a daze.. The only reason Lee lived, was because Kenny came back and saved him.

    Thank you for your calm debate. I enjoy discussing this game and situations with people who show respect for other's even if we don't share the same reasoning!

  • I gave Larry food so that I would be one step closer to winning Lily's heart. Turns out that doing such a thing decayed my own heart like a rotting Walker on a midsummer afternoon.

  • No problem! :)

    I would give him food if I had more though.
