Episode Written By: Craig Mazin
Episode Directed By: Craig Mazin
As they hike the final leg of their return journey to Jackson, Ellie insists Joel swear his story about the Fireflies is true. He swears and Ellie seemingly accepts his word.
In Utah Abby and the last survivors of the attack on the hospital vow to kill Joel slowly for his part in the death of the Fireflies.
Five years later, Joel is no longer The Contractor but he is the foreman for the expansion of Jackson Wyoming. He and Ellie have grown apart and Joel is seeking therapy for the breakdown of their relationship.
Meanwhile Ellie goes on patrol with Dina and they find a new variant of the Infected, a stalker, who bites Ellie but she's still able to hide her immunity from everyone.
After they've reported the anomalous Infected to the town council Ellie and Dina join the rest of the Jackson residents at the New Year's Eve party. Dina kisses Ellie but one of the townspeople, Seth, abuses them before he is knocked over by Joel. Angered by his overbearing, overprotection Ellie tells Joel she doesn't need his help in front of the whole town and storms out.
Later that night, as the drunken party goers return home, infected tendrils of cordyceps have found their way inside the town and Abby and her own party observe Jackson, Wyoming from the mountainside above.
We'll be be back next week with our chat all about The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 2.
