Would Kenny have left Sarah?

If not, what would he have done?

  • I think we all know the answer to that. The REAL question is: Would Clementine have been mad at kenny for leaving Sarah?

  • My Clem would sure as hell be

  • My Clementine wouldn't be. She'd understand that Sarah was being a little bitch

  • I remember something similar to this.
    Most likely not.

  • He would have left her, and he would have been justified in doing so.

  • I approve this message

    He would have left her, and he would have been justified in doing so.

  • Justified? Yeah, you're worse than Crawford.

    He might've been able to carry her or something, but if not he'd definitely realize, much like Jane and Luke do in the non-ridiculous and slowed down version of that scene, that there was no other choice but to leave her. His reasoning would be very similar with that of the Larry situation.

    I mean, assuming the situation was the same, that they'd gone to the trailer park to save her, Nick and Luke then I think he would have saved her. I'm assuming he's just taking Clem's place? He's a grown ass man, he'd have hauled her up on the roof of that trailer regardless of protests and flailing.

  • I've thought about this a lot, especially when the season 2 episodes were first being released. Despite Kenny getting little to no interactions with Sarah, I do not think he would be okay with leaving a child to die a horrific death.

  • edited November 2018

    If it was in the trailer park he probably would have picked Sarah up kicking and screaming and between him and Jane they would have likely managed to lift her up the window.

    If it had been at the observation deck I imagine he would have handled it similar the meat locker scene with Larry.

    Anyone who says Kenny would have abandoned Sarah truly just never cared to focus on the man or who he is. The boat god abandoned NOONE. The guy ran into a walker swarmed building jeopardizing his and his families life for a man he knew less then a week in S1. Pulled Lee from certain death. Rescued Clem countless times. He's the last to abandon someone.

    Would never leave children behind especially. Not like that useless pig Jane. He sacraficed his own well being at the end of S2 for Clem.

    Ben led to the death of his whole family and he still stood during his final moments in that alley.

    Kenny is a hero. He would have died saving Sarah before he'd abandon her. Of course unless it was a situation in which she was truly fucked and impossible to save. then that's what it is and he'd move on. He would try to harden her though.

    The only time someone could note that Kenny abandoned someone was Ben at the bell tower and the Hershel son. But of course he picked his own son over the hershel son and he panicked. The apocalpyse hadn't hardened him yet.

    As for Ben, Kenny was hurt by him but more then made up for it later. Not to mention Kenny knew Lee was there and would have saved Ben.

  • Not sure what you are getting at with this one. Lee had ultimate decision in this choice. Kenny didn't abandon anyone even in this.... and I think you skipped the part where Kenny went against his own feelings and said "Whatever, just get in" to a FUCKING MURDERER. This more so proves Kenny not leaving someone to die.

    Someone who literally just off'd an innocent group member old western style with a bullet through the brain over a lost argument like a spoiled brat piece of trash. She should have gotten punted to the side of the road. Kenny was way more level headed than anyone in that situation and was talking the obvious to Lee. My Lee ditched her as anyone should. But it's crazy Kenny decides to keep her if Lee does. Tons of sympathy.

    But of course that's a much different situation from Sarah who's an innocent nice girl who never really hurt anyone outside of being a wuss. Lilly murdered and she was a head case who had to go. Truly a spoiled asshole with a heavy trigger finger that never did or never will accept that she isn't the authoritarian bitch she wants to be and she really is just a sad pathetic lil baby.

    What i'm getting at is Kenny would've abandoned her right then and there if it were up to him. His willingness to abandon her proves....you know.....he'd abandon somebody. Also, you say "a FUCKING MURDERER" as if Lee isn't one.

    she isn't the authoritarian bitch she wants to be and she really is just a sad pathetic lil baby.

    Isn't that sad/pathetic little baby, who isn't the authoritarian bitch she wants to be, the fucking LEADER of the Delta???

    Funny. I remember that one time when Kenny refused to help a recently kidnapped Clementine because of some personal grudges.

    People really romanticize his moral integrity. He would do anything to protect those he considers family, and that's it. This is especially apparent in S2. Sarah doesn't fall under "family" for him for sure, so his own life and the group's safety would take priority. And I wouldn't blame him. Anyone in their right minds would realize there was no time to have a deep conversation with Sarah with walkers literally seconds away from giving everyone - Sarah included - the chomp.

  • You're deliberately missing the lack of connection between a murdering sociopath piece of shit and a helpless girl. Of course Kenny and anyone sane would cut ties with anyone able to kill someone for no reason out of assumptions for the protection of the group. That's not Sarah. Their isn't just black and white. their is a lot of grey areas. Lilly murdering and Lee murdering aren't remotely the same in context. You know that. I don't have to explain.

    Isn't that sad/pathetic little baby, who isn't the authoritarian bitch she wants to be, the fucking LEADER of the Delta???

    Oh wow, she found her way. She can bully children with automatic weapons to form some pip squeak military of children because she is too weak to fight her own fights. A group where one of their most hardcore members and Lilly's right hand man got fucked up by a 16 year old girl and a 5 year old. :D

    Fuck the delta. I don't think it's anything to commend her for nor assume she's at all a authoritarian war lord or a leader in any shape of form. She's just a fragile broken little trust issue having bitch who happens to gain uphoric power trips off bullying the weak and MURDERING children. She has lust for blood and is a dirty nasty Logan Paul levels of sociopathic pig.

    With that said, my statement stands. Kenny abandoned noone from the group. Lilly was not part of the group the very minute she killed an innocent person. She was an enemy. A threat. No better than Carver or the stranger. Maybe even worst.

    Not in my story he did. Because my Lee loved Kenny and yours probably abused him lol.

    As for the leaving Sarah behind if walkers were swarming. Thats different. I dont consider it abandoning unless you could save her and didnt. If she was just swarned and crying I agree its illogical to save her but if it was just a crying Sarah. Kenny would carry her.

    Even though Kenny can get on my nerves and I personally wouldn't chose him to be with me during an apocalypse, I've always admired the fact that he doesn't give up. Sure, he's a cunt to you if you don't agree with him on certain things, but he would never give up on some-one nor he'd ever leave you behind. I remember that in episode 1, when Larry punched Lee in the face, Kenny went back to pick him up, even if Lee was a prick to him and his family. Sure, Kenny can be hot headed and he's not exactly on my favourites list, but he's a man who will do anything for the people he cares about, and that deserves some respect.

  • Well, he wanted to leave Omid behind in ep4 because he was walking too slow lmao.

  • Kenny could be a self serving son of a bitch, but he'd have tried to rescue Sarah.

    • She's a kid. He has a soft spot for kids. They eat first. They're thought about first, and after Ben was responsible for killing Kenny's family the man still couldn't leave him to suffer.
    • He can be brutal, but he's down to earth about most of his decisions. When it came to putting the woman down in the street or leaving her to scream, he didn't want to attract the walkers to the living and she was already dead.
    • He can refuse to go with Lee ( though he didn't in my play ), but realistically what is he demanding in that moment? Does Lee have his back in this insane suicide run he's asking him to do because up to that point the player hadn't. He's asking to be convinced, and the player can persuade him regardless of past history with the right word choice.
    • He'll jump down for Christa and boost her up to save her from the walkers if Ben is already gone. This is a very similar situation to Sarah's, and he was willing to do it for a pregnant woman he barely knew.

    Without painting Kenny as a saint, yes he would hoist Sarah up even if it meant sacrificing himself to do it in the trailer as he had for Christa. He would have ensured both girls were up before he got out of there. Would he have done it if he were in Jane's place at Sarah's second death opportunity? More difficult to say, but considering Ben's situation, I would assume so. Clementine wouldn't be convincing him to go down like she had been with Jane, but perhaps have a chance to try to talk him into staying with her as Lee did when he went for Ben.

  • I agree with this.

  • if he had something in risk that is more important to him(Clem for example) than giving his life for Sarah he would do the same.

  • edited November 2018

    here s what i think: Kenny would never consider the possibility of leaving Sarah behind unless she was confirmed to be bitten, not because he cares about Sarah as much as he cares about Clem since they dont even have any dialogue with each other but... Kenny is essentially much alike to the group that Jane mentions she was a part of before, the reckless group which got almost half of their members killed just to save one person who was trapped.
    So i do believe that he d jump in to save her if it was Sarah s 2nd death and if it was the trailer scene then he d likely carry her and give her to Luke while Yelling at her to snap out of it or something like that. ((Also its even more likely for him to do that in Sarah s case because she s not an adult and you know how protective he is of kids and teens... well with the exception of Ben for a while but he still ended up sacrificing himself in season 1 because of Ben if he lived thought episode 4 so it still counts.))

  • ( Not to mention Kenny knew Lee was there and would have saved Ben.)
    ??? excuse me since when Kenny was some kind of soothsayer to know that lee would never abandon Ben and there is literally two options there to let him fall or pull him. if you let him fall Kenny will say its the right choice and Ben deserve it and if pull him he shit on the choice and Ben.
    also Kenny depending on your choices in the first 2 episodes if you got only one of main 3 choices with Kenny siding against him he hates lee for it and abandon him when Danny attacks lee at the barn and in the Everett's shop he literally stare at lee when he is stuck under the door and walkers without doning a thing.
    i know you love Kenny i am too but don't let it blind you to state thing that are not complete facts. Kenny only care for people that mean a lot to him and for them he put his live for risk and easily don't give a fuck for other who mean less/nothing for him and he more than happy to see kids he hate like ben and arvo die for their reckless actions.

  • To Kenny, they might as well be. Luke and Jane are also included in his eye, btw.

    Also, Arvo might only be a year or two older than Sarah. Or held, even younger somehow. It's not exactly clear.

  • I think he would have. Sarah was a child and Kenny had a soft spot for those and I feel like he did try his best to keep people safe. He might not have always gone about things in the best way and he had a temper, I don't think anyone can deny that. But I know he had heart and I believe he loved those in the group he was close with. He was willing to die to help Ben despite what happened. That tells me he has good in him. And I have a soft spot for the guy, so maybe I'm wrong. I just can't see him abandoning her unless she was bitten.

  • S1 kenny = yes! , S2 kenny = hell no

  • Ben and arvo both are at their late teens maybe 18/19 year or two or even 3 older than S4 Clem they are not much different in age n size from the boarding school kids.
    i think they can be considered as grown kids and young men at the same time.

  • Exactly. Late teens and "kids" are two different things. I feel that Ben/Arvo already grew up. I think the other three have a lot more to learn.

  • You make good points. I guess I do tend to praise the boat god maybe to fanboy levels.

    But in fairness my counter would be that Ben basically is the reason the group fell apart, he killed kenny's wife essentially, broke bread with the bandits, led to the death of his son, his wife and even carly. And Kenny still stood in that alley with him in his final moments. Took a lot of gaul.

    Like I said, Kenny will leave you to die if you fuck him over. If you spent the whole game calling Kenny a piece of shit, punched him on the train, took Larry over him, didn't help him at all. Sure he might forget you. But if you don't wrong the man he'll die for you.

    Sarah was naive and a pain in the fucking ass, but I think she's innocent and helpless enough for Kenny to have the naturual boat god instinct to protect her. I think Kenny sticks out for the group of people who love him and treat him nice. I should have prefaced that.
