AJ possible status.
Based on what I saw in the trailer of episode 3, I think AJ is alive and with some Clementine's ally elsewhere (from Clementine's point of view), I don't think The New Frontier has killed him or provoked his death, this is because Clementine doesn't seek revenge or return for someone or something in The New Frontier, she wants to get away and have nothing to do with them, I think Ava or someone else decided to ally with Clem and go to a certain place. What do you think?

Uh...did you really watch the trailer? Cause the 2nd half doesn't really match up with the 1st.
Anyway, I think it's pretty obvious that either Ava, David, or "Dimitri" may have him in their custody, assuming he's still around that is.
But i don't think "inside" The New Frontier, unless Clem decide not involve nobody else and rescue AJ by herself, pretending to want to be away from them.
I have a theory of my own, regarding this. Considering how A.J. appeared sick in the new trailer, I have to wonder...what if AJ's illness is the reason why TNF took him away?
Back in season 1, it was mentioned that there was a certain group which had a reputation for executing people who were old, sick, or otherwise hampered in their ability to survive.
If TNF is anything like THEM, it is entirely possible (or even Plausible) that A.J. may have been euthanized, providing a reasonable explanation for why Clementine came off so aggressive at the beginning of the season.
Simply knowing that TNF would do anything like what the other group did in S1, would've automatically made her a threat for knowing too much. This could explain why Clementine was so afraid of being seen by them, which is why she was on the run, WHICH is why she was so intent on getting a vehicle in the first place.
Okay, you had me and you lost me: If AJ was probably euthanized, then why the fuck is Clementine afraid of being seen byTNF?
If he is in another place it would explain why she needs a truck so badly, but the truck could also be to crush it inside the new frontier base and recover AJ, who knows?
If AJ is alive (and I say if because I think what we see in trailer is a flashback) I don't think he's with TNF. If he was Clem would want to go back and get him, in episode 2 I sensed she didn't want to go anywhere near TNF. I will comment tho on the fact that did anyone notice how pale AJ looked? As if he was sick or something?
I guess it's possible but I certainly hope not. The other group did it because they were a strain on resources and the community. New Frontier does it because...? I mean, David specifically says the AJ stays, meaning they took him away from Clementine when she was leaving. His life would have had no negative impact on the group if he left with Clem, which would mean they forced him to stay so they could put him down because they're pure evil? Sounds so plain.
In the flashback of Ep2 he was already sick, not that sick, but still, he getting worse can be explained if you refused Ava invitation, I don't know how the scene should play if you went with her
I was thinking lack of food could be one reason. Seemed like Clem was struggling to get any. He's got to be ok in away because I'd think she would be more frantic and panicky to get to him. For example if Clem & Javier end up getting locked up in ep1 she's like "right let's go to sleep! " not oh no I gotta get out and get to someone
I don't have a solid answer for that right now. We may not know until the episode comes out; or, at the very least, more info is made available.
Bare in mind, I'm just speculating at the moment.
