When the group arrived at the farm, the group could either take the biscuits or leave. Lee could also freely leave the farm and go back to the motor inn if desired.
The group discusses whether to stay at a farm that has offered them food and shelter or to leave. Lee is skeptical and concerned about the safety of the kids, including Clementine. There's a disagreement, with some arguing that the farm's defenses and food supply make it a better option, while others, including Lee, feel uneasy and prefer to stay where they are.
Eventually, they decide to vote on the matter, with the majority opting to return to the farm, while others, including Lee, prefer to stay put. Clementine's opinion is also briefly mentioned, but it doesn't influence the decision.
Lee's Cut Dream Sequence
There is a dream sequence present in the game's data, complete with voice lines and partially completed animations.
In this scene, the character you didn't save in Episode 1 returns to haunt Lee in his dream, their eyes resembling the white eyes seen in walkers. They question Lee for why they weren't saved, blaming him for their death, and say that Clementine will inevitably die because of his actions. Lee's ex-wife Sam and Senator Hans are mentioned as well. The scene culminates with them asking the question: "Do you think you can save me this time?" as they raise a gun to their head.
Mark and David's Alternative Fate
During the bear trap incident, the situation was completely different. Travis was not present and Lee, Kenny or Mark had to help Ben shoot the walkers while one of the three cut off Mr. Parker's leg. If Mr. Parker was saved, the story would progress as normal, but if he was left behind, Lee would have been left with an additional choice of whether to leave Ben behind as well. If David was left behind, Mark would get shot in the head at the dairy by the bandits after he and Lee finish clearing the fence at the St. Johns dairy, requiring Lee to get back to dairy alone, Mr. Parker would then be found taking up Mark's role of being the dinner
Unseen Details
As can be seen in this video, there are just three bandit models physically present during the attack on Lee and Mark while they're out checking the perimeter fences. These are the only bandits that exist at this point, and they're simply known as bandit A, B, and C. Bandit A wears the "Hard Ass" T-shirt. Bandit B is the one that Bandit A shoots in an altercation while the group heads to the dairy, but here they're shown alive again. Bandit C is only used here in this episode, as they would make a more prominent appearance in the next episode.
Unused Models & Textures
Early versions of stuff that would get (re)used in the future, or just general unused models and textures.
Chuck
Just as some of the characters seen in this episode had early textures present in Episode 1, so does this episode contain early textures for some characters later seen in Episode 3. Chuck, for example, kept the same clothes, but they were made darker and grimier in the final release. His hair and face, however, saw the biggest changes. The final version of Chuck looks way more unkempt. He has dirtier, darker skin, thicker eyebrows, more details on his cheeks and ears, a different nose and eyes, a scruffier beard, and darker hair in a different hairstyle. This version of Chuck was seen (albeit shortly, and only from behind) in the "Next Time On" segment at the end of Episode 2.

Omid
Unlike Christa, Omid wasn't yet present in the game's files for Episode 1. He does, however, have early textures in this episode. Weirdly enough, he only has a body texture with his hurt leg. His body texture basically stayed identical, but it got made a lot dirtier. His face texture was also made a bit dirtier, his skin tone changed slightly, as did his beard type. This earlier version of Omid was also seen in the "Next Time On" segment, in a scene that was not present in the final release.

Reused Models and Textures
Travis, one of the teens encountered in the woods, was added late in development. Ben Paul, who would go on to become a main character, was originally voiced by Ruby Butterfield. When the decision was made to instead let Trevor Hoffmann voice the character, the developers created Travis purely for Butterfield to voice him. His face texture is derived from Chet's from the previous episode. However, Travis is slightly more tanned, and lacks any kind of facial hair. He also lacks some of the discoloration seen at Chet's nose and eyes, and Travis also has noticeable freckles on his cheeks as well as completely different eyebrows.
Chet
Travis
Similarly, Travis' hair texture is just a black recolor of Chet's.
Chet
Travis
For Travis' body texture, the developers combined Ben's and Shawn's. Travis reuses Shawn's pants and shoes, colored slightly darker, paired with Ben's top, which now includes Travis' name instead of Ben's (in a completely different style, as well) and has Ben's hoody colored dark blue instead of white. Also, Travis' top is a lot dirtier than Ben's, for some reason. You can clearly see that Ben's body texture was used as a base here, as his original can still be seen underneath where Shawn's were pasted on.

Opening Forest Sequence
8 lines marked with an asterisk have their associated subtitles stored in the file forestbeartrap_lee_mark_english.landb. The others have had theirs made from scratch, and as such might not be 100% punctuated like the developers intended. All lines are from an earlier version of the episode's start, with Mark and Lee by themselves.

Lee
I'm too hungry to think.
Lee
Maybe if we could spot a deer...
Mark
Deer? Hell, I'd be happy to find a raccoon. Anything the Walkers haven't already ripped apart.
Lee
I dont know, Mark.
Mark*
I thought we'd be fine if we survived the Walkers. Never expected that they'd starve us out.
While the line never gets said by anyone in the final release, it is said during Episode 1's "Next Time On" segment. However, in the segment, the line is spoken by Lee, not Mark.
Lee
Maybe instead of hunting, we should head back to Robins. See if there are any MRE's left.
"Robins" refers to Robins Air Force Base in Warner Robins, Georgia. This is where the group encountered Mark, but it never gets explicitly named in the final release.
Mark
No way I'm going back there. You saw what it was like when you guys picked me up, completely overrun.
It seems that, at this point, you would've had the usual set of three responses alongside silence.

General Notes
Ruby Butterfield was originally meant to be the voice of Ben, evidenced by his performing of Ben during the trailer for "Starved For Help". There is even some left over files of Ruby's voice acting of Ben.
Ben would tell what really happened to his classmates, and had to witness several traumas such as being forced to see rape. This was a major key factor left out, whereas Ben dealt with the bandits to save a friend he thought they had.
Found in the files are unused voice lines related to Brenda that indicate that she was originally not voiced by Jeanie Kelsey, and instead being voiced by an unknown actor, half of her lines seem to be similar to the voice lines heard in the final game with only alterations, there are also completely different lines that weren't recorded by the final voice actor.
When the group arrived at the farm, the group could either take the biscuits or leave. (Refusing them apparently results in some hilarious dialogue between Mark and Carley/Doug.) Lee could also freely leave the farm and go back to the motor inn if desired.
There was more to Jolene. Depending on Lee's choice she could mention another bandit called Paul, and her daughter Danielle.
The dinner sequence was much larger, with an unused sequence where Lee had to cut Clementine's food or let Lilly/Kenny do it. Lee could also choose to add more salt or pepper to Clementine's plate or let the two above do it. There were several retakes of a prayer, and Lee at this point had found out that Mark/David was dinner.
Multiple smaller lines related to Larry's demise exist, in which he would've apologized to Lilly for not being able to protect her and her mother.
Mark Darin stated in an interview that originally, Lee would have to move from stall to stall while avoiding detection by Danny St. John and he would have to place the bear trap in order to catch Danny (as opposed to him stumbling into it during a cutscene).
