I'm gonna guess that just like in Howe's lot of unheared/unseen NPC's will go down with the place. Well at least I'm attached with the characters I'm controlling/sided with...
Oh... wait!

...anyone surprised? The protagonist is captured CHECK by a hostile group who has their own base CHECK The bad guys pretend to be the good guys who are simply misunderstood CHECK The bad guys push the protagonist or his/ger group too hard CHECK which causes the good guys to escape and destroy the settlement in process CHECK... Now, more than before, it feels like TT is simply rushing throught the story while rehashing previous TWD games. It's sad, because a base made out of boats seems like an interesting idea which will quickly come to an end, unexplored. I wonder where I've seen that before... Oh... right. Not that I think the plot is bad, but I really hope they don't stick with the generic "hostile colony of survivors" cliche for Season 3 and the rest of Michonne. Walking Dead: Season 1 had a lot more plot variety, and dedicated only one of five episodes to going against the cliche of a survivor groups (Crawford in Ep 104) by having the colony be abandoned and overridden with walkers, whereas Season 2 dedicated most of it's plot to that same cliche that Season 1 was smartly written enough to have subverted in one single episode. This is even coming from someone that doesn't mind Season 2's change in quality as much as other people did. There are a lot more ways to incorporate tough choice making and engaging story telling than just "[Playable Character] gets caught up in dispute between a small group of strangers against a colony of survivors with a maniacal tyrant in charge." It's not bad, but it feels kinda generic when Season 1 had so much variety in plot.

Goddamn it, they are essentially falling into the problem the show has sometimes, obvious repetition.

I'm just gonna headcanon that sam is actually a lying selfish butt and Norma is just hotheaded but otherwise perfectly rational as sam in fact did repeatedly steal from her.thus making sam a hidden antagonist and Norma more of a grey antagonist who isn't a tyrant and in thank is as nice as she claims to be. Randall is still psycho and also confirmed for death (if not then governer style mutilation which is always cool) That's a headcanon? I thought the episode itself strongly implied it - that's why I didn't side with Sam/that guy she escaped with at any time.

I was thinking that it'll be one of those scenarios where Michonne will trust Sam only for Sam to betray her later on, with Michonne realizing that Norma was right. If it's not and we'll end up with just a regular 'protagonist vs. hostile group'... that would be a really big waste.

Is this still coming out on the 29th or has MCSM bumped it out of its spot?

Deltino at the Telltale forums pointed out that Zachary is missing two fingers, so I wonder if they'll ever mention why that is if he survived (I doubt it's but neat anyway).

punishment for murder, possibly.
steal a object, lose a finger
steal a life, lose two fingers?

I'm guessing the entire episode is about 50 minutes and it's all about escaping from that ship and blowing it up. Wouldn't be surprised.
