Episode 3: Long Road Ahead
Omid and Christa are first seen walking on a highway above where the train had to stop with Lee and company inside due to a dangling tanker. Kenny leads Omid into the train to teach him how to operate it if anything were to happen to Kenny. When Lee and Clementine return from the train station with the blowtorch, Omid offers to help Lee free the dangling tanker. Lee is able to cut through about half of the support keeping the tanker attached to the truck, but the truck starts to move and Omid saves Lee from being hit by it. Lee thanks him and informs him that Omid needs to trust Lee and let him hold onto him while Omid reaches out to cut through the rest of the support. Omid is reluctant at first, but eventually gives in. Omid successfully frees the dangling tanker.

When the herd of walkers are seen coming towards the train, Kenny begins to drive the train forward. Lee tells Omid he has to jump onto the train, but once again, Omid is reluctant to do so. Despite what choice the character makes, whether to push him or let him decide, Omid does jump on the train. However, he lands the wrong way, bangs his shoulder against the top of the train, and topples off, injuring his leg. Christa jumps out and forces him to his feet. The player can choose whether to save Omid first or Christa first. If the player chooses Christa, she criticizes Lee. If Omid is saved first, Lee is criticized anyways. Omid is incapacitated and stays with Christa while Lee heads to the front of the train.
