I'm just happy to be with someone new who knows their shit. (...) Ah, I got a good idea. You radiate shit-knowing.
―Cleo to "Dana Bethune".[src]

Cleo Clifton is a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live. She is a consignee for the Civic Republic of Philadelphia.

Pre-Apocalypse[]

Location Unknown[]

Nothing is known about Cleo's life prior to or as the outbreak began.

Post-Apocalypse[]

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania[]

At some point following the outbreak, Cleo was found by the Civic Republic Military and taken to the Civic Republic of Philadelphia as a "B". Prior to this, Cleo was living in a tree and eating insects.

Season 1[]

"Bye"[]

At the culling facility, Cleo and the other consignees bang their Kill Sticks on the wall as a truck leads a herd of walkers to them. When the walkers get close enough, Cleo, Michonne, and the other consignees begin dispatching them with their kill sticks. In the aftermath, Michonne and Cleo load corpses onto carts while an announcer congratulates the consignees and states that they are two hours to transport to Richmond Power Station. Cleo notes that Michonne had cut through the walkers quickly, and asks if she's been out there for awhile. Michonne confirms it and introduces herself as "Dana Bethune", claiming that she's just taking it all in. Cleo, who was also out in the world for awhile, is excited to be on the doorstep of paradise. Although Michonne is dubious that it's paradise for everyone, Cleo thinks that it is, noting that she was eating crickets and living in a tree when the CRM found her. Hearing distant explosions, Cleo explains that it's Disruption Charges to scatter the walkers if too many build up in one area and it's the second time this week, but Michonne is visibly suspicious given her own experiences with the organization. Cleo asks if Michonne is on a three-day or a six-day training, explaining that it depends on how much steel the CRM thinks the consignees have after sizing them up. Cleo guesses that Michonne is on a three-day training, admitting that she's just glad to be with someone new who knows what they're doing.

As Cleo moves bodies from a pile, two of the walkers turn out to be non-kills. Although the CRM soldiers guarding them orders the consignees to get down so that they can shoot the walkers, Michonne impales one through the head with her kill stick, decapitates it, and throws the head into a walker that's sneaking up on Cleo from behind, smashing the second walker's head and saving her new friend's life. The soldiers and Cleo are impressed, and the soldiers move in to check for any more walkers that haven't been completely put down. The consignees are ordered to clear out for station assessment while Michonne and Cleo are ordered to return to transport for a health check and incident report.

Responding to a page, Rick joins Thorne at the culling facility where she tells Rick that he's in real trouble now. Cleo and Michonne are amongst the consignees putting down walkers, with Michonne doing so with a fury that surprises and impresses Cleo and the other consignees. Later that day, alongside the other consignees, Cleo is given a tour of the Civic Republic during orientation and allowed to explore Millenium Park.

On another day, Cleo is eliminating walkers alongside the other consignees when Thorne pulls Michonne aside to leave with her and Rick.
