History NightmareFuel / THEWALKINGDEAD

** Over the course of the episode, learning the true nature of how the hospital is run and the heavy hinting at Beth's [[SexSlave most valuable purpose]] for being there.

* The trough room in the season premiere. The main characters are at the back of the line as redshirt captives are being slit one by one. [[spoiler: Glenn was only seconds away from joining them.]] Plus [[spoiler: the butchered human torso]].

* Seeing [[spoiler: Dale ]] get torn open in the stomach by a walker while he screams, his friends are too far away to help.

* Rick's nightmare shortly after [[spoiler:the fall of the prison.]] The world is like it was before the apocalypse and Rick saves Carl from walking in front of a car only to go inside and start making out with Lori. Things then turn gruesome as [[spoiler:Lori turns into a zombie and begins taunting him over the fact that he couldn't save her, all while eating him alive. What makes it really horrible is how Rick doesn't fight back and just agrees with her.]]
-->"I deserve this... it's okay... I deserve this..."

* [[spoiler:Kenny trying to murder Jane and possibly succeeding to do so.]]
** This scene really needs to be talked about in more detail. [[spoiler: After navigating through a blizzard, Clementine meets up with Kenny and Jane, the only other group members left. When Kenny notices that Alvin Jr is missing, he questions Jane, who hesitates. Kenny then [[BerserkButton snaps]] and starts trying to kill Jane. She fights back and one of the most intense fights in the series starts. Meanwhile, Clementine is trying desperately to stop what little of her friends are left from murdering each other, but they don't stop. Eventually Kenny gets the upper hand and tries to stab Jane with her own knife. Clementine notices a gun and grabs it. We then get a [[SarcasmMode lovely]] SadisticChoice kill Kenny or let him kill Jane. A TearJerker to be sure, but its over now, right. [[FromBadToWorse ''of course not!'']] Because ''now'' it turns out that Alvin Jr is alive, and the whole thing was set up by Jane to provke Kenny into snapping.]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Holy. Fuck.]]
* [[spoiler:Jane has some...unsettling favoring to Clementine in Episode 5. She downright has Kenny purposely lose it on her just so Clementine will choose her instead. She probably didn't expect you to possibly kill him, but she just says that it needed to be done. Geez...]]

* "I heard whispers, and I was afraid. [[spoiler: It was the dead. they were ''speaking''.]]"

* When [[spoiler: Lee gets his infected left arm amputated. The game does not treat you to just a cutscene and poof! Lee has a stump for a left arm, oh no! It treats you to a brutal, graphic scene of Christa having to ''saw through his Goddamned arm with a saw'' all while he's screaming in pain. If there was any consolation, it's that Christa and the others do not take pleasure in having to put Lee through this.]]

** [[spoiler: Let Kenny Live]]: [[spoiler: Alvin Jr. was alive all along, and it was a ploy by Jane to reveal Kenny's insanity to Clem. While this makes Kenny finally realize his failings and try to improve himself, it's still clear that he's far from okay, and it took him actually killing someone in a fit of anger to realize it.]]

** [[spoiler: Stay With Jane]]: [[spoiler: Alvin Jr. is still alive, but now the aftermath has changed - Kenny has died for nothing, and Jane's reasoning is shaky at best. Even ''she'' seems distraught by the outcome - depending on your dialogue choices, she may tearfully admit that she never should have done it, and wasn't thinking straight at all.]]

** [[spoiler: Stay With Jane]]: [[spoiler: Alvin Jr. is still alive, but now the aftermath has changed - Kenny has died for nothing, and Jane's reasoning is shaky at best. Even she seems distraught by the outcome - depending on your dialogue choices, she tearfully admits that she hadn't thought it through at all, and didn't want things to end this way.]]

** [[spoiler: Let Kenny Live]]: [[spoiler: Alvin Jr. was alive all along, and it was a ploy by Jane to reveal Kenny's insanity to Clem. While this makes Kenny finally realize his failings and try to improve himself, it's still clear that he's far from okay.]]

** [[spoiler: Stay With Jane]]: [[spoiler: Alvin Jr. is still alive, but now the context has changed - Kenny has died for nothing, and Jane's reasoning is shaky at best. Even she seems distraught by the outcome - depending on your dialogue choices, she tearfully admits that she hadn't thought it through at all, and never meant for it to turn out this way.]]

** [[spoiler: Let Kenny Live]]: [[spoiler: Alvin Jr. was alive all along, and it was a ploy by Jane to reveal Kenny's insanity to Clem. While this makes Kenny finally realize his failings and try to improve himself, it's still clear that he's far from okay, and it took him killing a (somewhat) innocent person to realize it.]]

** [[spoiler: Go it Alone]]: [[spoiler: The bleakest of all the endings, Clementine is left alone in the wilderness with Alvin Jr., silently and coldly dealing with walkers as she presses forward. The lack of dialogue or multiple outcomes, along with the short length, leaves a destitute feeling of hopelessness, and little else.]]

** It's also a lot worse if you're first thought is that [[spoiler:the following dream is a Death Dream.]]

* [[spoiler:Kenny]] yelling and cursing at Clementine for [[spoiler: Sarita's death]]. Especially since it seemed like something he would never, ever do. He really '''has''' crossed the DespairEventHorizon.

* The Governor's [[spoiler: final attack on the prison. He does this by nearly decapitating Herchel, then ''finishing the job'' and does a brutal, NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on Rick and nearly strangles him to death.]]
