Talk:Zoey

This picture is a picture of the old Zoey, not the model used in the finished game. takua108 02:14, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Good point. I've now added the new pics to each article. --Psykwakz 05:47, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Excellent! I've wanted to see side-by-sides for awhile now. takua108 07:26, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Zoey's Speech
She doesn't talk much during, but she does talk about how close she is. "Almost thereeeee.....Almost thereeeee"

Phew, that was close.

(By deadly)

"Zombies aren't supposed to be fast, why are they fast? I'm calling zombie bullshit on that, you know? (Giggles Nervously) They're... not ALLOWED to be so fast"
 * Heh, that was funny. Sometimes, on the elevator, she'll say something like, "Game over man, game over!" (which I believe to be a reference to Aliens...not unlikely due to her horror movie marathon) in response to Bill saying they just keep coming.  After she says that, he's like, "What was that?"  Then she and Louis laugh.  I wonder if they're just, you know, trying to release stress by saying silly things? - Stigma-231  † God is dead • [ talk  ] [ cont  ] 15:48, 1 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I've heard her say, "Do you think everything will just ... go back to normal?" or something to a similar effect while on the elevator. She's also famously quoted as saying, during the Terminal level in Dead Air, "Oh no! The zombies killed God!" after encountering graffiti with the phrase, "GOD IS DEAD" on the wall. -ZombieRevolution
 * I laughed so hard when I heard that. - Stigma-231 † God is dead • [ talk  ] [ cont  ]


 * I think the funniest thing she said was "Wait, that makes me the last woman on earth...shit."--Dragonking 16:33, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Model
Zoey wasn't modeled after Alésia Glidewell. The only female the game credits thank for lending her likeness to Left 4 Dead is Sonja Kinski. A quick Google Image search of both women easily confirms which one Zoey is modeled after, as seen here:  -ddrguy

Looks like Alesia Glidewell was the model for the old version of the Left 4 Dead models, as this page may show: http://www.alesiaglidewell.com/oncamera.php --90.35.206.144 14:00, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey you're right, only I wish she looked more like Sonja, so that Zoey would look hotter.--Dragonking 16:20, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Louis
Has anyone noticed the kind of flirty relationship she has with Louis? They seem to be closer than the others. For example:


 * "Louis... You'd look good in one of those hospital gowns." Note that a hospital gown makes someone practically naked from behind. Kinky Zoey. ;)


 * "Anything for you, Louis!" This appears to be the only appraisal with a name in it, and is the nicest "you're welcome" saying from her.


 * "Well, you're an optimist Louis, I'll give you that." I think she appreciates his generally upbeat manner.


 * "Zoey! My plans! MY PLANS!!" He has a plan, eh? Go Louis!


 * "I knew you wouldn't leave me." I have only ever heard her say this to Louis when he helps her up.


 * "You are beautiful, sexy and charming! Thank you!" She says this to him after he has healed her or helped her up. I have heard her say "You are a charming beautiful man!" to the others but she has never referred to anyone besides Louis as "Sexy".

The three points below may show a playful humor that they share and that they enjoy affectionately 'poking fun' at each other. Or at least, Zoey enjoys 'poking fun' at him.


 * Louis -"You guys ready to bounce?" Zoey -"Yeah, yeah I'm ready to bounce! (Giggles)."


 * "Louis, your row isn't boarding yet." During the last level of Dead Air.


 * When Zoey yells "Game over, man! Game over!" Bill is confused. Both Zoey and Louis laugh at this together. Francis remains quiet.


 * Probably a coincidence, but it is Zoey that rushes in (remarkably quickly) to save Louis from the Hunter during the opening cinematic. She uses much more bullets in quick succession than necessary.


 * I have heard Louis scream "Zoey!" when she is grabbed by a smoker. He also screams "Bill!" when he gets caught. He rarely says anything for Francis, though. Alternatively, Zoey will scream "Louis!" or "Francis!" when they get caught, but rarely for Bill. Minor point.


 * I am uncertain about the PC version, but this is true on the Xbox360 version:
 * When Zoey is low on health - (Below 30) i.e. After being incapacitated - pressing the left analogue stick in when facing a near survivor with a health pack, she will request it. This is true for all survivors. On the 360, she has only one line for each. These are her requests to Francis, Bill and Louis respectively.
 * "Francis, if you aren’t gonna use that first aid kit, can I have it?"
 * "Bill, if you aren’t gonna use that first aid kit, can I have it?"
 * "Louis, if you aren’t gonna use that first aid kit, can I have it, please?"


 * Note that these are generic, with different names simply added. Excepting Louis, where, at the end of the sentence, she adds "please?".

EDIT: Many have expressed their doubts about this point. I can only prove it on the 360 version. Proof: Start an offline co-op on expert on No Mercy level 1 with two human players, or at least, two controllers. Kill the two bots. Have the second player - Francis, Louis or Bill - to incapacitate the first player - Zoey. Player two revives Zoey and picks up a health pack. Wait for Zoey to comment on her pain and then click in the left analogue stick while facing player 2. She will say her line depending on who player two is. Change player 2's character to another to hear the other ones. You'll see that she only says "please?" for Louis.


 * While playing around with the bots as Zoey, I discovered that she mentions Louis even if he's dead. Both Louis and Francis were dead, Bill was incapacitated and Zoey was inside the ending safe-room. She quickly stated:
 * "C'mon Louis, we can't leave Bill behind!"

Louis' body was slumped up in a corner, dead. She still talked to him.


 * Zoey is beside Louis in every poster. Coincidence? Let's see..


 * Zoey has a 1/2 chance of being on the inside and 1/2 of being on the outside


 * If she is inside, then the chance of Louis being placed next to her is 2/3.
 * If outside the chance of Louis being next to her is 1/3


 * Therefore the chance of Louis being next to Zoey in any given poster is (1/3 x 1/2) + (2/3 x 1/2) = 3/6 = 1/2


 * The chance of Louis being next to Zoey in all four posters is 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/16


 * 16 to 1 that she wouldn't be next to him in at least ONE poster. But she is beside him in each. Coincidence? Possibly, but the odds are certainly against it.

EDIT: I just want to add that with the "Survival Mode" DLC comes the "Last Stand" map. And guess who's beside Zoey in that? Yep, you guessed it, Louis again. That makes it a 1/32 chance that she'd be beside him every time. And she is. Now the odds are definitely against it.

Well I have stated my case. I am not saying they are together. I am merely stating the evidence that they might be. Secretly, maybe? Who knows, I want you good people of the wiki to help me solve the mystery.

Honestly I think there is too much evidence to ignore, but that's just me. :) --Five Dog 23:26, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Lol, math. But that's exactly my point on Talk:The Survivors!  Things like that make the projected relationships between the Survivors so obvious.  I feel we would definitely be able to write about their relationships, all of theirs, and back it up with evidence from the game.


 * Oh, and by the way, they do say "behind you!" to other Survivors. "Watch out!", "Watch your back!", "Behind you!" - §tigma-231  ♠ ৳ hаt i ɯill nəvər escaρe [ łalk  ][ ςont ] 14:27, 3 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I thought I was wrong about that. Hence the COMPLETELY WRONG thing. And I can help out with the "relationships" thing if we ever go through with it. :) --Five Dog 16:43, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, this is ALL the evidence. While it might suggest a possible relationship between Louis and Zoey, it might also be possible that Zoey likes the brothers and is just being extra flirtatious with Louis, and he's responding in kind. I think this is leftover dialogue from a possible storyline the developers were going to use and they didn't want to go back and re-record all the voices when they changed it. --MadDawg2552 14:47, 3 April 2009 (UTC)


 * No, they originally intended for Zoey to be together with Francis. So I think there may be something going on between her and Louis. Maybe nothing special,but they're quite close. --Five Dog 15:37, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Heh, heh, heh. Found something, it proves nothing obviously. But it seems someone else has the idea of them together as well. --86.45.201.142 13:49, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
