Mitch is a former antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series. He is a hunter for Ericson's Boarding School. After Marlon's death, he serves as the tertiary antagonist of the episode "Suffer The Children".
Overview[]
Mitch is a hot-tempered but generally good-hearted person. He is initially very welcoming to Clementine and AJ. However, after AJ kills Marlon, he becomes resentful towards the two and is the most vocal on kicking them out. He has moments of coldness, such as having no sympathy for Ms. Martin, suggesting to burn her corpse rather than bury her. Despite that, he greatly cares for the well-being of his friends. Though he is furious at first when Clementine and AJ return, he eventually warms up to the two and reaccepts them as members of the group. Before his death, he attempted to save Tenn by charging at Lilly with a knife, showing his selflessness. Despite his death, Mitch's hand-crafted bombs would play an instrumental part in taking down the Delta.
Pre-Apocalypse[]
Location Unknown[]
Nothing is known about Mitch's life prior to or as the outbreak began, except that he was born in either 1993 or 1994 and was sent to Ericson's Boarding School sometime before the apocalypse for his interest in making explosives out of fertilizer. He later reveals to Clementine that, when he was eight years old, he blew up his father's garage.
Post-Apocalypse[]
During the early days of the outbreak, the teachers at the school left Mitch along with rest of the children to fend for themselves.
The Final Season[]
"Done Running"[]
Mitch is first seen with Brody and Aasim as they are returning to the school after a hunting trip. He is also seen sitting with Willy in the school's courtyard while waiting for dinner, crafting a wooden spear with his knife. He is later seen at the end of the episode during the showdown between Clementine and Marlon, staying quiet throughout most of it and remaining neutral, until Clementine reveals Marlon's secret. After Marlon is talked down or disarmed by Clementine, Marlon will solemnly surrender however at that moment Alvin Jr. shoots Marlon in the skull instantly killing him. Mitch and the others stare at Alvin Jr. in shock as the episode ends.
"Suffer The Children"[]
Following the events in "Done Running", as seen in a flashback, Mitch was enraged by Alvin Jr. killing Marlon. Mitch angrily confronted Clementine and berated her, causing Alvin Jr to tell him to back off. Furious, he pulls out his knife and threatened her with it, however, Clementine either talked him down or snatched the weapon. (Determinant) Either way, he walked back to the others and examined Marlon's body.
Later on, when Clementine and Alvin Jr. tried to apologize for their actions at Marlon and Brody's funeral, an infuriated Mitch chastised them along with calling Violet a bitch for trying to stand up for them. He then grows infuriated and suggested to the others vote whether they should vote to exile or punish Clementine and Alvin Jr. Mitch, along with four others, voted to throw the pair out.
When Clementine and Alvin Jr. returned after Alvin Jr. was wounded from shrapnel, Mitch remained hostile towards them. Later on, Mitch searched the greenhouse for supplies with Clementine, joined by Ruby to keep the peace. Arriving at the greenhouse, they found the door locked. Mitch suggested Clementine find another way in and check the place out before they also entered. Clementine entered the house and managed to take out the three walkers inside by herself, which impressed the wary and bitter Mitch. Inside the greenhouse, the pair located the barbed wire they plan on using to protect the fence.
Mitch spotted fertilizer to where he explains he used to make bombs out of stuff, remarking they could use it to attack the raiders if necessary, all he needed was a propane tank which Clementine found also. When the group discovered the hidden door to the Science lab, they went inside only for Clementine to almost get grabbed by a walker trapped in fence, revealing it to be the School's old nurse, Ms. Martin who Ruby loved for being the only teacher to stay behind and actually care for them before she sacrificed herself when walkers attacked allowing the others to escape. Mitch saw as just another walker so suggested that they should burn it around back, while Ruby wanted to give her a proper burial.
Clementine decided for them. (Determinant) After this, as the students prepared for the impending attack, Clementine checked in on Mitch while he made his bomb to provide assistance. When the bomb failed the first time, Mitch freaked out, telling her they do not have he needed to work on it alone to ensure it worked in time. Mitch finally accepted Clementine, even thanking her for trying to help. The following night, Mitch braced to defend the school from Lilly and Abel.
Clementine told Mitch, along with Willy, to prepare the bomb for when the Raiders broke in, however Omar is shot in the leg, setting off the fire-fight. Mitch and Willy sneaked behind the raiders, attempting to set up the bomb trap. Their plan went wrong when Lilly lured Tennessee out by mentioning his sister, whom she grabs and holds a knife to.
Mitch successfully detonated the bomb, the explosion knocking the raiders and Lilly, dazing them. Mitch rushed at Lilly, but she stabbed him in the neck with her knife, horrifying Willy. Lilly then jabbed her knife into Mitch's head, killing him. Mitch's sacrifice enabled the others to make it safely inside the admin building and mount a defense against the raiders with their traps set up by Willy and Aasim to avenge Mitch. Willy later mourned Mitch's death, with Ruby comforting him.
"Broken Toys"[]
Mitch's corpse is seen in the courtyard following the events of the previous episode. Willy is seen kneeling next to his body, still crying over the loss of his best friend. Tenn offers to help bury Mitch, but Willy angrily lashes out, shoving Tenn to the ground and accusing him of causing his death. Violet/Louis quickly defuse the situation, and Mitch is given a burial as Clementine goes to interrogate Abel.
After returning to the school later in the episode, Mitch is once again brought up by Willy, who plans to blow up the raiders' boat, having created another bomb using Mitch's own instructions. Clementine can also choose to name the bomb Mitch's Masterpiece, in honor of their fallen friend.
Death[]
- Killed By
Lilly lures Tennessee into emerging from cover with the promise of word on his sister. After Mitch's bomb explodes near the raiders' carts, Mitch rushes to rescue Tennessee from danger.

Quotes[]
The following is a list of some of Mitch's most memorable quotes.
The Final Season"Hey. You're new. (…) I'm carving a weapon. (…) You like that, huh, little dude? Wanna see something cool? (flips knife) Pretty rad, huh? That's how you fuck up some monsters. (…) That little dude said "fuck!"" "Whoa. She kicked his ass." "Saved you from that car wreck, and you fucking murdered him?! (…) Or what? (draws knife) You gonna let him kill me, too? Then who's next? Aasim? Willy? (…) How the fuck are you saying that to me after what he did? Screw both of you." "Bitch. (…) Seriously, Louis? He was your best friend. He wasn't perfect, but he deserved better than to get gunned down by that kid. AJ killed him like it was nothing. We all saw it, and no one stopped him." "Yeah? Well I don't appreciate your kid murdering my friend." "No. Go ahead, AJ. Yeah, we all wanna hear you explain why you murdered Marlon." "See what I mean? How can any of us trust these fucking people? I'm saying they gotta fuckin' go. We take a vote. Majority decides: they stay, or they leave. Today." "We brought you here. That means we can get rid of you, too." "Okay, what the hell's going on? Willy told me she was back, but I was like, "No way! Violet wouldn't just go against what we all decided." (…) Great. We're just giving them our medicine, too?" "How do I know? Maybe he shot one of their friends?" "You're only here 'cause we're desperate, you know, so don't get comfy. If we survive these raiders, you and I are gonna have words." "Wait. Make her go first. We send the one we don't mind losing. (…) Vi says we need her help, right? She shouldn't mind sticking her neck out." "You know, the barbed wire idea is smart, I'll give you that. Those assholes try and climb our walls, they'll tear their guts out. I'd kinda like to see that." "Hey. We can use these. (…) We can make bombs out of these. (…) Totally. It's the kind of stuff I made back home. Guilty. I just need some propane and something to create a spark, and we'll have ourselves a nice little homemade explosive." "Dare you to drink it. (…) Wimp." "Made my first one when I was eight. (…) I blew up the garage. It was awesome. Though, Dad didn't think it was awesome. Dad gave me a chemistry set to keep me from fighting the neighbors. (…) I had a lot of energy. Had to use it somehow. And they didn't like my face." "Fuckin' A, I was hoping there'd be one of those! That's an igniter. We can use it to create a spark. Now we just have to find propane, we can blast those motherfuckers to hell." "Bury her? Why bother? It's a walker. Help me drag it out back. We can burn it. (…) And? (…) She's been dead for years. There's no point." "It's not a her, it's a walker! Fine, whatever. I'm not wasting my energy on that thing." "It's better, you know. To get it over with. You get all caught up in who people used to be, and you can't deal with what's in front of you. "Mm, test. Gotta see if the bomb will go off. This little thing won't kill anybody. Just gotta see if it'll light. (…) Expect the unexpected. (…) I read that on one of those stupid inspirational posters. School used to have them everywhere. Soon as things went to shit, I tore them all down. Stupid shit. (tries to light bomb) Ugh, could you? My hand's all fucked up from messing with it all day." "It's not like I got all the time in the world to play scientist and figure this shit out! I'll figure it out. I just need more time. Alone time. To think. (…) Thanks, though. For helping." "Uh, no, it should've been two to one parts, but maybe with the double, it didn't... Little more dirt would catch if the propane was soaked in fir--no, no, no, stupid." "I'll set it under those carts. It'll work. I promise." |
