Lee can answer him "She's great.", "She's fine.", "Not really." or "Her dad tried to kill me, so...". And Larry revealed that he tried to kill Lee because Lee is a convicted murderer and Lee can hurt innocent people. And Larry threatens Lee about stay away from Lilly and Clementine.
Starved For Help[]
Three months later, Larry is seen at the Travelier Motel while building the barriers for the walls with wooden planks. Later, when Lee, Kenny and Mark cames to the motel with Ben Paul and a wounded David/Travis, Larry swears them and thinks Ben is lying and praises Lilly, later leaves them angrily and continues to fortify the motel. Later, Lilly gives Lee four food items to give only four people. At that time, Larry berates Mark to work harder. And Mark and Larry want the axe from Lee. If Lee gives the axe to Mark, Larry will grouch. If Lee gives the axe to Larry, Lee will say to Larry try not to make much noise and Larry will say he is not stupid. And Mark will say Larry about what Lee told Mark. Mark can ask to Larry about the personal grudge of Lee, his racism, his protective for Lilly or his thinking about Lee is dangerous. If Lee gives Larry a food, Larry will say "This does not make us friends." or "I should shove it to your ass but I'm hungry." or "That girl needs to quit worrying about me". If Lee did not feed Larry, Larry will grouch again and tells "Where is my food?!".
After, the wounded David/Travis dies and reanimates as a zombie and attacks Katjaa. Later, Lee saves her and the zombie attacks Lee. If Lee gives Larry the axe and if Doug is survived. Larry will kill the zombified David/Travis and save Lee and grouch again "You're gonna get us all killed!" and gives Lee the axe back and leaves.
Later, Andrew and Danny St. John come to the motel and offers Lee for came to their dairy. If Lee does not accept this, Larry will grouch again. Later, in the dairy, Larry claims they are good people and feeds them and will praise Brenda St. John as "You are an angel".
When Lee finds out the family are cannibals and the meat is Mark's legs, Lee tells this information to the group. However, Larry didn't believe him and eats the meat (if Lee tells him to eat it). However, when Brenda confirms it, Larry grows outraged and later, the group is imprisoned by the family.
When an outraged Larry punches the door continuously, Larry gets a heart attack and fainted. Kenny becomes scared because Larry could reanimate into a walker. Lilly calls for help and Kenny supports to kill Larry. Lee can help Lilly to help revive Larry or help Kenny to kill Larry. Regardless of player choice, Kenny crushes Larry's head with a salt lick.
Personality[]
Larry is an aggressive and cynical man, with a very unpleasant temper and attitude that tends to annoy others in the group. Despite his attitude, Larry does firmly believe in his daughter's leadership and always supported her. He shows to be very gruff and ruthless, as he was willing to try and kill Duck after believing that the boy was bitten. According to Lily, a lot of things in Larry's life have hardened him, including the loss of his wife.
Larry is also extremely distrusting towards Lee, having knowledge that he is a convicted killer. Whether Lee is tolerable and understanding, or chooses to be nasty back, their relationship still doesn't improve. In the final season, Clementine believes that Larry was racist, which might even be true since he called Lee "boy" and doesn't deny the accusations thrown at him by Mark. He could also be homophobic, asking "you and what homo parade" when arguing with Lee and Kenny over Duck's bite in the drugstore.
A softer side to Larry is revealed upon meeting Brenda St. John, as he soon grows fond of her, engaging in friendly conversation, and calls her an angel when she prepares dinner for the group, hinting at some romantic interest. Brenda even refers to Larry as a "big old sweetheart". Should Lee talk to him about this though, Larry will sternly tell him to mind his own business. This all ends however upon learning the truth about the St. John's cannibalism.
It is revealed that Larry raised his family strictly with a focus on discipline, as he allowed the power to his family's house to get cut in order to teach Lilly not to waste power by leaving the lights on.

- Killed by Kenny: Regardless of the choice Lee makes, Kenny will always throw a salt lick onto Larry's head, destroying his brain to prevent reanimation.
- Killed by Lee Everett (caused, determinant): If Lee chooses to help Kenny kill Larry, he'll restrain Lilly while Kenny throws the salt lick onto Larry's head.

Trivia[]
- Larry has ischemic heart disease which requires him to take nitroglycerin tablets.
- Larry has two tattoos in his left arm, a scorpion and an eagle tattoos.
- Larry raised his daughter, Lilly, in a military-esqe fashion with a focus on discipline.
- Due to his violent and disparaging temper, his death was considered by many fans as well-earned.
- Despite this, some players tried to save him as well. Reasons for this could be because they didn't want to kill Larry if he wasn't dead and could be saved, not wanting to kill Larry in front of Clementine, believing that he didn't deserve to die despite his antagonism towards Lee, or believing that he would start to like Lee if he saved him and see that he's not a danger to the group as he believes.
- A lot of fans were also disappointed that killing Larry was deemed to be a bad choice, even though it was the only way to remain on Kenny's good side throughout the majority of the following episode.
- If the player attempts to resuscitate Larry, then for a moment, his mouth can be seen moving while Lee gives him CPR, implying that he very well could have been saved had it not been for Kenny. On the other hand, this could have been a sign of reanimation.
