Overview[]
Christa is an independent young woman capable of looking after herself after the death of her beloved boyfriend, Omid. She is caring towards those she loves, but can be unfriendly and cold to others that seem to be dangerous. When the apocalypse started, Christa was aware to be more terrified of the living rather than the dead and kept both her and Omid away from being a part of groups until she was reluctantly persuaded by Omid out of precaution for her pregnancy. She is always alert and aware of what is happening around her and the people she's with.
Christa can be intimidating at times as shown with her and Molly's relationship, but can be solved, and the event when the group votes to kick Ben out of the group. Other than that she deeply cares about Omid, Lee and especially Clementine whist looking after and knowing her for two years. Albeit a brief appearance, Christa was shown to have become hardened after losing Omid, going back to her attitude of not trusting others.
Pre-Apocalypse[]
San Francisco, California[]
Little is known about Christa's life prior to or as the outbreak began, except that she lived in a San Francisco apartment, and she and her boyfriend, Omid, were taking the "All-American Road Trip" when the apocalypse began. She also had parents who were into Kung Fu movies and had a very fancy home. Omid also mentions that they owned a cat.
Barstow, California[]
Christa and Omid went to Barstow, as mentioned by Christa in "All That Remains". At some point during their road trip, Omid slept in the rain, something that Omid and Christa share jokes on.
Post-Apocalypse[]
Season One[]
"Long Road Ahead"[]
During the train ride to Savannah, Lee's Group come across a hanging petroleum tank truck on-top of a bridge blocking the train tracks. They then spot Christa and Omid on the bridge above when Omid comments on Kenny's persistent shouting.
Lee climbs up, followed by Clementine, asking both of them to help move the tank truck. Omid is amazed by Clementine, since he has not seen a child since the apocalypse began. Christa then remarks that Lee doesn't resemble Clementine's father and asks if he is with them, to which he replies "no". Christa then asks Lee his story about how he found Clementine. Christa and Omid agree to help move the tank truck but if anything happens, she will move on with Omid, alone. Christa then comes down and Lee introduces them to Kenny, Ben, and Chuck. She then stays and chats with Clementine while Lee looks around.
During a conversation with Christa and Clementine, Lee discovers that she is from San Francisco and she and Omid were on the "Great American Road Trip" when the apocalypse happened. She also tells Lee that Omid has an interest in Civil War History, something Lee shares. She also takes a liking to Clementine and tells Lee that it's good that Clementine can use a gun for safety. She also gives some tips to him on how to stay alive.
After Clementine and Lee are attacked by walkers at the nearby depot, Christa walks in and sees the dead walkers. She then checks if they are both okay and goes to see if the noise attracted nearby walkers.
After the tank is cut down, a herd of walkers comes down the tracks, presumably following the train due to the amount of noise it made. Christa and the group get back to the train except for Lee and Omid, who are still up on the bridge. They both jump from the bridge, but Omid lands improperly and rolls off the train. Christa quickly rushes to his aid. Lee can then pick whether to save Christa or Omid, but either way, they are both able to get on the train.
"Around Every Corner"[]
After departing the train in Savannah, she, Omid, and the others travel to the river, where Kenny hopes there will be boats. Along the way, she tries to convince everyone that Omid needs to rest. When Clementine's radio goes off, with a man speaking, she questions Lee. Lee sees someone in a bell tower, and Christa asks if he was sure. Suddenly, after the bell goes off, a herd of walkers arrive. She uses her pistol to get Omid and her to safety. Once they are safe in the backyard of a mansion, she forces Omid to rest. Once that's done, she again questions Lee about the man on the radio. No matter what Lee says, she will be angered. After the house is searched and Lee buries Fivel, she is the first to see Lee after he finds someone stalking them at the gate. Fearing they're not safe, Kenny and Lee go to find a boat, while Ben stays behind with Christa, them taking care of Omid and Clementine.
After Lee comes back with Vernon, a doctor, she begs him to check on Omid. He does, briefly cleaning and patching up his wound. When Lee and Clementine find a boat in the garage of the mansion, she is excited to leave. However, they find out it has no battery or fuel. The group decides to steal medicine, fuel, and a battery from Crawford. She goes with the group, while Omid stays back in the house.
The group finds Crawford deserted and overrun by walkers. The group splits up to find everything they need. Christa and Vernon go to get the medicine from the Nurse's Office. However, the medicine is locked in a safe and they get trapped by walkers. Lee takes care of the walkers and finds two videotapes. They play them, discovering that Crawford forced pregnant women to have abortions. After a girl in the video ends up being forced to have to get an abortion, which she rejects, Christa gets upset. Also, earlier Lee mentioned that Christa has been throwing up the past couple of days. She denies anything if asked. Once they find the combination in the video, Christa and Vernon grab the medicine and head back to the Command Room. They make it back just in time, as the walkers arrive. Once inside the Armory, she finds a few rounds for her pistol. The group get trapped in the stairwell, forcing Lee to fend off the walkers with a newly-found shotgun. Christa saves Lee's life from walkers, as he reloads. Once everyone makes it to the top, she climbs onto the roof and escapes with everyone else.
Back at the house, the group finds Omid lying on the bed, motionless. She cries, but finds that he was just sleeping. With the medicine, Vernon saves his life. Once Omid is able to walk, they all plan to leave on the boat. However, they find Clementine kidnapped and Lee bitten, if he chooses to share that. Lee can ask for their help in finding Clementine.
Christa and Omid will offer to come based on how much they trust Lee up to this point - whether Lee reveals the bite to the group or not is an important factor in this. Christa, upon hearing the news, states that Clementine is all of their responsibility and that Lee doesn't have much time left. All suspecting Vernon, the group heads to the cancer survivors' underground shelter. However, it is found empty. Suddenly, a herd of walkers surrounds the outside of the building and the group receives a message on the walkie-talkie from the Stranger who has kidnapped Clementine.
Alternatively, she and Omid won't come, saying that she doesn't trust Lee, if he does not show much faith in her. Instead, she and Omid will guard the boat in the house. Concealing the bite will increase the chances that they won't come, but it is not the only deciding factor. If Clementine didn't go to Crawford, Christa and Omid will accompany Lee even if he concealed his bite because Clementine had saved Omid's life when a walker entered the mansion, and the couple will want to return her favor.
"No Time Left"[]
If Christa and Omid came with Lee, they are with Lee after the Stranger contacts him. She assures him that they will find Clementine. walkers begin getting in and they block and guard the door as Lee looks for another way out. After Lee finds a way, he passes out to due his bite. As he is unconscious, someone (either Christa or Kenny) will attempt to hack Lee's bitten arm off, but Lee awakes just in time. Lee will choose if he wants to hack the arm off and if he does, Christa will cut it off after Kenny expresses reluctance to do so. Either way, they all escape to the roof. After getting off the roof, they head back to Fivel's house for the last time. When they get there they find the boat gone. If everyone went with Lee, then Vernon's group left a note. However, if someone stayed behind, then they would be beat up and locked in the garage by Vernon. If Christa and Omid didn't go with Lee, they will also be locked in the garage by Vernon and his group. She will be either be shocked to see Lee's arm gone, or shocked by Lee's bite.
Either choice, walkers will approach the house and the group will attempt to make a stand in the house. This fails, and the group retreats to the attic. While in the attic, she and Omid get into a small fight. Lee can ask her and Omid to take care of Clementine or just to get her safe. Once out of the attic, they get into the neighbor's house and find a couple who committed suicide. She and Omid will stare at them and become depressed. Once Lee finds a way out, they head across the rooftops.
If Ben died in "Around Every Corner", Kenny will bump into Lee and the walkie-talkie will fall into a hole in the roof of a warehouse. She will jump down there to get it. Further inspection shows the building is full of walkers. Lee and Omid will panic and try to get her out. Kenny will jump down and boost her up. The walkers will approach and Kenny will be trapped by the horde, seemingly sacrificing his life to save Christa. The group looks down at the hole and leave, finding no evidence of his survival.
However, if Ben was saved in "Around Every Corner", Ben will fall off the roof and Kenny will instead sacrifice himself by putting a dying Ben out of his misery and a final gunshot is heard off-screen. The group then looks down at the alley from the rooftops, but finds no visible evidence of Kenny and assume his body is hidden amongst the undead. The group then accepts his death and continue their search for Clementine.
Either way, the group will make it on the rooftops to the Marsh House, which is across the street. However the street is full of walkers. Lee will either try to cross a sign or let Omid and Christa try to, however it breaks, separating them. If Lee volunteers to go first, he will imply that Christa is pregnant, stating that she would be "walking for two". Lee will tell them to either meet him by the train, boatyard, or tell them to go find him. He can also tell them to take care of Clementine. Their fate is unknown as they head off while Lee goes to the Marsh House.
Season Two[]
"All That Remains"[]
Christa was seen with Omid and Clementine as the trio make their way to the bathroom at Gil's Pitstop. Christa was shown to be heavily pregnant, and playfully discussed possible names for the child with Omid. After departing to use the restroom, Christa was unaware of the ensuing chaos in the neighboring restroom. She rushed in to the bathroom after hearing the gunshot, and ran over to Omid's dead body. She was devastated at his death and shot Michelle as she dropped her gun in surrender. Christa held Omid's body before noticing that the gun that Michelle had dropped was Clementine's. She pleadingly looked at Clementine, but Clementine was speechless and began to cry. Christa sobbed into Omid's shoulder as Clementine looked on.
Sixteen months later, Christa and Clementine attempted to start a fire in a small camp out in the woods of North Carolina. Christa was no longer pregnant, with the fate of her pregnancy and child left unclear. The pair had plans to eventually trek up North to Wellington together. Christa was shown to be cynical, with Lee and Omid being sore subjects.
Christa was ambushed after she went to search for wood for their fire. Christa, protecting Clementine, insisted that she was by herself. Clementine eventually hears the commotion and can either attempt to distract the scavengers or sneak away. If Clementine distracts the scavengers she throws a rock at Winston and yells for Christa to run away. If Clementine sneaks away, Winston sees her and stabs Christa in the leg with a spear and Christa yells for Clementine to run away. No matter what option is chosen, Clementine is forced to run away from Winston. As Clem runs away Christa can be heard yelling before a gunshot rings out.
When the cabin group questions Clementine, she has the option to tell them about Christa, that she was attacked and she lost her friend and wants to find her. Also, when Clementine was in the shed taking care of her bite, she says Christa showed her how to suture injuries.
Clementine found Victor at the end of the episode and demanded that he tell her where Christa is, but he wasn't able to answer due to being injured and dehydrated, leaving Christa's fate uncertain. If she did survive, she and Clementine never reunited.
"A House Divided"[]
After being reunited with Kenny, Clementine tells him that Christa had said that Kenny was dead and she explains that she had traveled with Christa and Omid following Lee's death, but that Christa is "gone" now. If Ben was dropped by Lee at Crawford, Kenny will tell Clementine about how he saved Christa and got himself separated from the group.
"No Going Back"[]
If Clementine travels to Wellington with Kenny, she hopefully asks Edith if Christa is there. However, Edith tells her that no one by the name of Christa is in Wellington, meaning that if Christa had survived, she never made it to Wellington in the end, at least by the time of Clementine's arrival.

Quotes[]
The following is a list of some of Christa's most memorable quotes.
Season One"Are you guys gonna be trouble? Because we could've just kept walking. (…) Anything that gets you killed or worse, and it tends to come hand-in-hand with groups of guys in distress." "That tank is your real problem. We'll help you with it, but if we see anything we don't like, we're moving on down the road. Alone." "I blame the one in there. He wanted the "great American road trip". (…) Who the hell is into Civil War history anyway? Other than old white guys. (Lee raises his hand) Wonderful. You two will be thick as thieves." "You got this girl shooting guns?. ("I don't need a lecture.") You weren't getting one. It's good. She SHOULD be able to take care of herself." "You and an eight-year-old versus three of them, huh? (…) If you two were to die in here, three dead turns to five, and THAT'S my business." "I hope you know what you're doing with her." "So you take her into a dark, boarded-up building to build character? (…) I think it's a good idea-- figurin' stuff out for yourself-- for what it's worth. But be smart about it, though, you know? Teach her to scan the area for things. You two should never be looking in the same spot-- that's a waste. Stay the hell out of places like that building over there, especially if you don't have more than one way to get out. And be more afraid of groups of living men than dead folk." "Omid and I are still alive because we're two, and not six or eight or ten. I don't believe in strength in numbers and you shouldn't either." "Omid! You son of a bitch! Save him! Omid!" "What the hell is wrong with you?! Is this how you protect your people?!" "What's the harm in letting her have it? It doesn't even work! (…) Sorry I spoke." "His leg's pretty bad. (…) You're not fine, you need to rest. He needs to rest. I said Omid needs to rest! Guys, can we stop for one minute? (…) I'm telling you, he can't keep going like this." "So, when were you going to tell us about the radio? (…) That it's working! That there's someone else on the other end of that thing! You didn't think that might have been worth sharing with the rest of us? Well? (…) I don't like people keeping secrets. I especially don't like it when they think it's for my own good." "What makes you think it's not the same person? Whoever was on the radio was close enough to see us in the street. And we didn't see anyone else other than the guy in the belltower. (…) How much sense does anything make anymore? In case you haven't noticed, there's a lot of twisted folks out there these days. At least the dead don't play games with you. (…) Maybe you're right. But whoever it was, they're watching us. Following us. And they don't want us to know who they are. I can't think of any explanation for that that would make me feel better. Can you?" "I was just asking Clementine if she knows who the man on her radio is. It's okay, honey, you can tell us. Who is he? What does he want? (…) I'm not saying she intended to. But she's just a kid, she doesn't know any better. You never told her not to talk to strangers? I mean, these days more than ever..." "Apparently, Lee's started having conversations with dogs. Should we be concerned?" "Time's the one thing we don't have! Not while Omid's lying upstairs getting sicker by the minute. We need to do something, and we need to do it now!"   "No. You wanna do a headcount, or do you wanna get what we need and get the hell out of here?" "No. You wanna do a headcount, or do you wanna get what we need and get the hell out of here?" "That is not gonna happen. Do you hear me? That is NOT going to happen. We're going to get these meds to Omid and he's going to be fine. He's going to be FINE!" "It's nothing. That was just... hard to watch. Don't worry about me, I'm fine." "What the hell's he babbling about? (…) No, wait, I want to know what he meant. What do you mean, this is all your fault?" "Well, I vote we leave him. I'm sorry, Ben. I know you mean well, but all I want to do is get back to Omid. And you put that at risk." "On second thought, I think I'm gonna abstain. Lee?" "I never should have left you. I'm so sorry."   "We're all responsible for Clementine. And in your condition, you may not make it to her in time. She needs our help. All of our help." "We're all responsible for Clementine. And in your condition, you may not make it to her in time. She needs our help. All of our help." "Lee, we're a team. That's how we've made it this far. We're not going to just abandon you. Especially now. You've earned that much." "Lee, I'm sorry. We can't. It's too risky for us. (…) I know. But Lee's asking us to put our trust in him... and that's just too hard for me. I hope you understand. I really am sorry. I hope you find her. But you're going to have to do it without us. This wasn't an easy decision, Lee. I want you to know that." "Lee, I'm sorry. We can't. It's too risky for us. And I have to put him first. He's not well enough to go off on some rescue mission. (…) He's just not up to it, Lee. And I'm not leaving him again. I really am sorry. I hope you find her. But you're going to have to do it without us." "You've been there for me when it mattered. How can I not be there for you now? (…) So that's settled then. We'll look for Clementine together." "We have to deal with this bite right now! (…) We've got to save him; we need every second we have. (…) Of course not. (…) There's gonna be a shitload of blood. (…) Then you and I go after Clementine and get the hell out of Savannah." "("You planning on growing some wings?") It's taking an immense amount of willpower to NOT make a crack about that suggestion coming from the one-armed man." "Honestly, my vision isn't great. I think it's allergies or all that shit those walkers are kicking up. (…) I know, right. You never see anybody in an end-of-the-world story with hayfever. It's not the time to get wistful." "We look out for each other, but we sure as hell weren't going to let you go alone, not with that time bomb chewed into your wrist." "He's right, they're not invalids. They're just people. People who have been dealing with shitty situations even longer than we have. No wonder they got the jump on us." "We get the fuck out of cities. I'm done with cities. We go into the countryside and make a go of it. (…) Then don't. Go your own way. (…) You wouldn't have a boat to lose without us, so shove it, okay?" "I know you're probably preoccupied, but don't stop thinking about the future, okay?" "We need solutions, not stupid jokes!... I'm sorry." "We're not lifers on Alcatraz here, we can't spend the next three months digging through a wall." "I'm glad you told us when you got bitten, it would've been easy not to. (…) We probably would've let you go alone if you hadn't told us. Which would've been a mistake." "I can't believe you didn't tell us you were bitten. (…) Well, it was a dumb thing to do. Omid and I have shown you who we are. You could've trusted us." "No. Except make sure Clementine had someone coming for her that wasn't liable to die on the way there. ("I wasn't gonna let that happen.") I'm sure that's what that Larry guy or whoever said." "It's so weird; I keep doing a double-take on your arm, expecting it to be there." "How are you? (…) I'm sorry. You've lost more than anyone. Well, as much as anyone." "I'm just asking him how he is. (…) I agree. I just wanted to say you've all lost a lot. We're still here, though." "Like you guys didn't have enough problems without punching each other in the face?" "I guess Crawford would've gotten them anyway." "And when we don't? And we don't know where to begin to look? Any clue, even the smallest one, is invaluable. We need that thing." "Look, Lee, this is a shitty time, but I want to clear something up. (…) Clementine. I know Kenny was your guy/Now with Kenny... gone... means Omid and I have to stay safe. For her. We'd do our best, you know that." Season Two"We're not calling our baby Omid. One of you is enough. Clementine, a little help here? ("It has a ring to it.") Yeah, the ring of an egotistical maniac." "Yeah, well, my vote counts for two. (…) Are you going into labor soon? No? Then don't talk to me about fair." "But I'm Christa. I don't want to call her Christa. That's just confusing." "You're not taking this seriously. (…) Keep talking and you'll be sleeping in the rain tonight. Remember that time in Barstow?" "Oh, God... Omid. Oh, God... Omid. Omid, can you hear me? Omid!"   "This'll never work. Look at this, it's pathetic." "This'll never work. Look at this, it's pathetic. The wood's too wet to burn. There's more smoke than flame. At this rate, we'll be eating this for breakfast. (…) There's only so much I can do. You should be doing this, not me. Tending a fire so you can cook and stay warm. It's something you have to be able to do, Clementine. Otherwise..." "All we do, all we have ever done is move. But we never seem to get anywhere." "Trust? You think you can trust someone out here? Not now. Not anymore." "You think this is bad, wait 'til we get up to Wellington, then talk to me about cold. If we make it. We still have a couple hard months ahead of us. This rain will turn to sleet, then ice, then snow. It won't be easy. Wellington's a long way from here. We just need to keep moving north. We sure as hell can't stay here."   "Clementine, run!" "I'm by myself! (…) It's just me!" "Clementine, run!" |
