Winston is an antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series. He served as the primary antagonist of the episode "All That Remains".
Overview[]
Winston is an aggressive, hostile, ruthless, boorish, and aggrieved man. In the middle of the woods, he and his group ambush Christa and threaten to kill her. After he notices Clementine, he relentlessly chases her down. He is shown to be particularly crude and vulgar, cursing at Clementine at every moment. He is more than willing to resort murder others, even children, as shown in one of the game over screens when he gladly takes the opportunity to shoot Clementine after being ordered by Victor. However, Clementine's feistiness will subdue Winston when a walker devours him.

"All That Remains"[]
Winston is first encountered 16 months after Omid's death. As Christa and Clementine attempt to start a small fire in the woods in order to prepare a weasel, they discover that the moist wood does not burn well. Christa departs from Clementine in order to salvage more firewood, though she never makes it back as she is ambushed and interrogated by a group of three scavengers, who believe that she is not revealing the location of any of her other group members.
As Clementine observes the robbery, she is noticed by Winston after she either uses a rock to distract the scavengers or tries to sneak away undetected. Winston immediately gives chase to the fleeing child, though Clementine's small stature gives her an advantage as she dodges walkers and uses the environment to get away.
Winston eventually subdues Clementine by grabbing her. Clementine responds to this by biting his hand until his thumb is nearly ripped off in an attempt to escape which succeeded. (Determinant) She attempts to then crawl into a log to avoid the injured Winston, though she is dragged out from the log and held down. (Determinant) Clementine tilts sideways in his grasp in order for a trapped walker to grab his arm, and then inadvertently leads another walker into him after pulling her arm away from it when it grabbed her. After pulling her arm away, the pulling force she was using makes her fall over and knock Winston over with her, rendering the vulnerable man incapable of escaping his dispatch as the last, fatal abrasion is delivered from a walker, ultimately ending his life.
