Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* ShootTheDog: More like Shoot [[KickTheSonOfABitch The Son Of A Bitch]], as he kills Larry by smashing his head with a salt lick to prevent him from reanimating. Considering the group had no weapons, no medicine, and would be stuck with a walking piledriver of a human being, he arguably did the group a favor.

* KickTheSonOfABitch:
** Determinately punching Larry in the face in Episode 1 might have caused more tension amongst the group, but the GrumpyOldMan deserved it, considering he had just suggested kicking his son out of the pharmacy.
** [[spoiler: If you consider Arvo to be directly responsible for Luke's death, then his NoHoldsBarredBeatdown of him can count as an example.]]
** His murder of Jane may count if the player allows him to do so, as she put Alvin Jr. in danger to prove that Kenny himself is dangerous.



* PayEvilUntoEvil: In season 2 against Carver when he smashes his face with a crowbar.

Not enough context (ZCE)


* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While Kenny is kindhearted and loyal to his friends, he is temperamental and can become a surly bully if the goals of others don't align with his. Kenny genuinely desires to help those around him, but due to his HotBlooded nature he would rather take immediate action and fly by the [[IndyPloy seat of his pants]] than stop and make [[DidNotThinkThisThrough an actual plan first]]. [[spoiler:By Season 2 Kenny's bad qualities have begun to overtake his good ones, and Clementine has to eventually decide whether he should be put out of his misery, abandoned, or forgiven.]]

** [[spoiler:While he had an understandable reason to smash Larry's head in, calling Lee "fucking worthless" if he doesn't side with him was unwarranted. Furthermore, while he clearly does regret the action, he deals with it by lashing out at everyone around him.]]



* NiceGuy: In Episode 1, at least.

* NiceGuy: In Episode 1, at least. He will stand by Lee, give him advice, and rescue him from the walkers regardless of the choices he makes. After the 3 month TimeSkip, [[TookALevelInJerkass he has hardened a lot]]. He will only have a chance to return to this if [[spoiler:forgiven in Season 2, whereupon he will remain a good father-figure for Clementine and AJ, sticking by her until performing a HeroicSacrifice for them. Despite this, his actions leading up to this can make Clementine wonder whether it was worth it to remain by him]].

* AntiHero: Starts off as a PragmaticHero, encouraging some of the harsher options (and refusing to compromise if you don't back him up) but generally looking out for the group and his family. He becomes an UnscrupulousHero after [[spoiler: his family's death]], especially with the cavalier wathe treats Ben, and remains in that territory even after [[spoiler:his return in Season 2, whereupon he still encourages killing enemies or abandoning other survivors.]] He slides slowly into NominalHero territory after [[spoiler: Sarita's death]] in Episode 4, bordering on AntiVillain depending on your interpretation, to the point where Clementine inevitably struggles with the choice of [[spoiler: killing or abandoning him]]. Luckily, he has a HeelRealization if he survives.

* AlasPoorVillain: While his status as a villain is debatable, if Clementine chooses to [[spoiler: shoot him to save Jane, he sincerely apologizes to her for making her do it before passing away, and reassures her that she made the right decision.]]
