Tweedle Dum's Appearance in episode 4...

[Professor929]

I opted to kill Dum in episode 3 because shooting at Bigby with an infinite amount of shotgun shells is going over the line and then some for my taste.

So it surprised me when I saw Tweedle Dum in The Crooked Man's office in episode 4. Is this a bug or were they able to revive him somehow?

Do you have more than one game going? If so, I'd check the save file. If you kill him, he's supposed to be dead. You'll still see Tweedle Dee, but not Dum.

[Professor929]

I don't have more than one game going but I did replay the episode so I can see what happens when you go to the butcher shop first instead of the lucky pawn. I hope it's not corrupted or anything like that.

I killed him as well and he wasn't in CM's office in my game.

Same for me. Dee is there though

[keeveek]

Are you sure it's not just his twin brother, lol

[Hag god]

There's a little "bug" when you wanna replay something, for example when i decided to replay episode 4, i chose restart episode 4 and it'll start off from the last chapter of episode 3 so it's maybe your problem

Well I've looked up Fables Wikia and the twin you can choose to kill was Tweedledum. The other one, Tweedledee is surprisingly still alive but how he survived is a rather confusing mystery, I guess that because he didn't get ripped to shreads then it's logical that he would be fine afterwards. From what I've found out, if you speared Tweedledum's life then at the end of episode 4 your supposed to see both of the twins I believe, otherwise it would just be Tweedledee there.

Fables are hard to kill. Every Fable we've seen killed so far has either had their body severed, or in Prince Lawrences case, spent days trying to die. We just beat the crap out of Tweedle Dee and threw him aside.

Yeah, you don't kill both of the twins, you only kill the one, or neither. It doesn't matter if you throw the other into orbit, he survives, Fables are tough.

The general belief amongs fables are that the more famous their story are, the harder they are to kill. In the comic Snow survives being shot in the head from a high powered sniper rifle

He didn't slit Tweedle's throat, he ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ removed it. The axe to the head was but a scratch compared to Tweedle's wound.

I'm not really sure about Fable biology, but they don't seem to mind taking an ensorcelled axe to the head at all, since we've seen that several times, in situations where the Fables don't seem concerned at all- if it was a human and the cranium had been penetrated, that's a life-changing injury including paralysis if not death. We probably see this to show us how hard Fables are to kill or even maim, it's shocking the first time we see it, but by the third time we can probably drop an anvil on the axe on their head without worrying about maiming them.

However having your throat ripped open would be just as fatal or more for most humans, if the jugular or carotid get cut, you're most likely a goner, withoiut a couple of minutes tops, even with modern medicine- it's not exactly a step down from cranial injuries. If a human gets their throat slit, they usually die, pretty much depending on if the vitals get cut, the Fable had his throat torn out, that looked much more severe than an injury that usually kills humans.

He actually gets his esophagus (the big tube going from his throat to his stomach) sliced open, while having just that cut is barely survivable in itself, it would mean not being able to eat or drink with his mouth ever again.. which is pretty bad.

That said, I'm finding it hard to follow the exact logics too, and I haven't read the comics if there's an explanation. They certainly seem resistant to head injuries, but have been maimed or killed in other ways. Either that or Woody's axe plain sucks or has lost much of it's power/become dulled somehow. We know that some items can lose their power (ring of dispel), maybe Woody's axe is just an sentimental item now, at best. It has been used to threaten Jersey and Bigby though, but perhaps decapitation is exactly the thing it's best at. That could even imply that for some the neck is a Fable's weakpoint. Either that or someone has some kind of neck fetish haha, with all the neck-related deaths. Like I said, I can't really follow the logic myself.

[denna3]

Logic? Logic is simple - Bigby, thats why. The Gren and Dum were maimed by Bigby himself, an I guess his claws\teeth are count as +over9000 magic weapons.

[David]

^ you win based on that all the possible visible maimings so far have been dealt by Bigby.
Dat meanz Bigby iz ze murderer 2 becuz al ze ded pplz haf no hedz. :P

By the way did anyone here watch the latest episode of Game of Thrones? Dat ending. Finish Him! Fatality!
