The following shot (spoilers)

[Arctic]

So, I know, there has been a lot of threads coming up about the new gameplay trailer, but I just thought I would start one myself

In the trailer, right after Lara says "Drop it, Zip, or I'll drop you!" the screen turns black and we hear a shot.

So who do you think is shooting? And who's getting shot?

Post your opinions and lets have a good discussion

Edit: And now that we are beginning to talk about the 'flashlight'-scene (01:13) I thought I would add that to the topic:
Who do you think it is, Lara is walking around with?

Pictures: (Spoiler!)

Haha.. Yeah maybe. Or maybe

Lara shoots Zip?

[josh1122]

I think Zip shot Alister to be honest because if he was aiming for Lara she'd be dead at that range. The shot clearly goes behind her at a different target, which im just assuming is Alister and Lara's reaction of ''wtf'' helps that.

Then it probably goes into detail why he did it and he'll explain why he shot alister and what his plans are and it pisses Lara off since zip was a friend and so was alister. which brings her to her breaking point line of ''Drop It Zip or ill drop you!''

[Arctic]

@ josh - You could be right.

We haven't heard anything about Alister, so..
Unless he's already dead at that point? Killed by Natla maybe?

[tombraidergal]

Hmm, here is my theory

When Lara says drop it Zip or i'll drop you! It might not be saying drop the gun, it might be a conversation and then bang! Don't know who shot who but Zip could've seen someone running around and got confused so he shot Lara, but which Lara?

I bet that confused you, here's my second theory for why i said the double.

Natla could be Lara and Lara could've been holding her gun up at Zip, and Natla could've shapeshifted, making it possible for Zip to have taken an aim at Natla but missed, and Lara and Zip could've quickly made an escape route out of the house.

Or maybe Natla could've shot Zip which led Lara gob smacked staring at the replica of her, and they could start fighting, unless she isn't shown until the end of the game, so maybe Zip could've shot Alister like some one said. To be honest, Alister is quite annoying so i wouldn't be surprised if he did shoot Alister!

Perhaps Alister and Zip could've been fighting and Lara said just drop it Zip and then Maybe Winston shot Zip or Alister...

Lara's finger or Zips could've slipped onto the trigger and maybe shot nothing or someone, but who.

I guess we'll never know until we go on the game.

[breathehdnlies]

the one thing im still curious about is that...there was no mention at all of amanda?! and when lara says what she says in the video to zip...for some reason i believe that he was pointing the gun at winston. and thats why she ment "drop the gun zip or ill drop u" cause she didnt want zip to kill him. then again..thats just my opinion. who knows? only time will tell i guess.

[garbhan]

maybe its all the farting the butler did in tomb raider 2 lol.

i dont think shes pointing at winstton i think shes trying to save him from zip. but then again who knows. it will be interesting to know the connection between zip and natla. i mean did he know her before he started to work for lara? and maybe even in legend he was planning his attack the whole time.

Post your opinions and lets have a good discussion

Did you notice that the level in which Lara says that is the Flaming croft manor . If you look in the backround you will see burning furniature . And who were those guys who were also waving flashlights in the dark temple with lara in the video ?

Yes I did notice
Those guys.. hmm..

Isn't it Winston? That's what I thought
But.. there seems to be more than one man. Hey that's good 'cause I was beginnng to wonder if there was going to be any new characters in Underworld at all!

I think the first time in the trailer when its dark and theres two people with Lara its zip and alister, then when zip shoots at Lara the man in that part is Winston

[jayjay119]

OK here's my theory. And its quite plain TBH;

We see Zip shoot something behind Lara, and then the trailer jumps quite quickly as if its been spliced so i don't think those two events directly follow each other but there is something in between.

I think Zip may be getting concearned for Lara and how dangerous she is becoming to herself and others with her obsession over certain artifacts so out of protection for her and everyone else he tries to shoot something vital for Lara to continue that may be on a table behind her. Mistaking it as a shot at her she jumps out the way shocked. So a conversation a long the lines of this goes.

Zip; Lara look at what your doing to yourself to us, look at the manor- you need to stop
this is going to far-
Lara; whose side are you on exactly here Zip?

Zip; Yours Lara you know that but look around all you've accomplished is destruction- how
far are you going to let this obsession drive you?

Lara; As far as i need to go Zip and if your in my way then i'll have to move you-

Zip; No I can't let you continue Lara-...

--Zip shoots--

Lara; What the hell are you doing Zip,?

Zip; i'm going to destroy that thing and put an end to this, i'm only trying to help you Lara.

Lara; I Don't need your help Zip, not anymore. I've come too far to let you ruin it all now, drop your gun and i'll let you walk out of her alive.

Zip; No, Lara I...

Lara; DROP IT ZIP OR I'LL DROP YOU.

What do you guys think? I think something like this fits TBH.

The dark scene with flashlight? I don't think it's Zip and Alister.

I took a couple of screenshots:
