The Walking Dead occurs simultaneously with events from the original comic and television adaption, with the onset of a zombie apocalypse that overwhelms much of society. Characters in the game come to call the zombies as "Walkers", as they move slowly and are only drawn to the living by loud noises. Though initially believed that being bitten by a zombie would be the only way to become a zombie, it is later discovered that the act of dying with a functional brain can cause one to be re-animated as a zombie after death. As with the comic and television series, the game's events occur in the state of Georgia.
In Episode 5, the final installment of this series, Lee and the other survivors head towards a hotel where the man and Clementine is held. Lee continues on alone when the group gets separated. The man at the hotel holds a grudge against Lee for indirectly causing the death of his wife, but Lee soon overpowers him and recovers Clementine. On the verge of turning, Lee assures that Clementine will be safe.
