Season 2

Season 1

Episode 1. Lee attempts to find his family after the start of the zombie apocalypse; his parents are implied to have died and he later finds his brother as a zombie. Later, the player is forced to make a decision that will get one of two companions killed no matter what.

Episode 2. Two companions die. One is cannibalized and another suffers from cardiac arrest before having his skull bashed in to prevent him from turning as a zombie. The player has the option of killing the character themselves or attempting to help him, but his death is inevitable.

Episode 3. In a paranoid state of mind, one character will murder another. The player has the choice to abandon her on the side of the road, and it is implied that doing so will lead to her death as well. Later in the episode, a child is bitten by a zombie. His mother commits suicide in grief. The child can then be killed—by either the player or the child’s father—or left to turn.

Episode 4. A companion of the player will attempt to hold off a group of zombies. His remains are later found. Late in the game, the player has the option to let a companion fall to his death, but can pull him to safety instead.

Episode 5. If the companion was rescued in the previous episode, he will die in this one. The player’s longest companion will fight off a hoard of zombies off-screen, his death implied. Clementine learns her parents are dead. At the end of the episode, the player can ask Clementine to kill Lee so he will not become a zombie.

Season 2

Episode 1. The game opens with Omid being killed, who acted as a primary caretaker of Clementine. Christa also becomes separated from Clementine. Although it’s never clear whether or not she dies, her chances of survival seem low. Later, Clementine befriends a dog, but the two fight over food and Clementine is forced to kill it. At the end of the episode, if Clementine chooses to aid Nick rather than Pete, Pete will be killed.

Episode 2. If the player chose to aid Pete in the previous episode, he will die in this episode. Later, the group encounters a man named Matthew and he quickly befriends Clementine, but due to miscommunication, he is killed by a group member who believes he is a threat. Later in the episode, the group is attacked and Walter is killed as an example to others. Depending on player actions, Alvin may be killed as well.

Episode 3. A man who befriends Clementine is thrown off the roof by a villain. If Alvin survived the previous episode, he is killed in this one while trying to buy time for Clementine. Carlos is shot in the neck while escaping with the group, especially distressing for his daughter, who witnesses it.

Episode 4. Sarita dies, either from being swarmed by zombies or as a mercy killing. Sarah dies either from being left behind in a catatonic state while zombies are swarming in, or from falling off of a balcony and being trapped while zombies attack her. The episode ends with Rebecca dying from complications after child birth and the player must choose whether or not to shoot her before she reanimates and potentially harms her newborn, a decision heightened by the fact the group is surrounded by bandits.

Episode 5. A supporting character, Arvo, witnesses the deaths of his friends and sister and is traumatized by it. Luke dies while attempting to traverse a frozen lake. The game ends with the decision regarding whether to kill Kenny before he has a chance to kill Jane, or to look away and let him.

Episode four involves a settlement called Crawford that had a ‘survival of the fittest’ mentality. Anyone who was too young, old, disabled, or otherwise deemed ‘weak’ were killed.
