Join Dwayne, Tosin & Andrew as we break down the penultimate episode of the season, and, honestly, one of the best episodes in the series. We discuss the cycle of violence and how Joel rises above it, why Ellie is absolutely hell-bent for Abby, and how we predict the entire series will end.

This week, Dwayne, Tosin & Andy trek to the hospital with Ellie, Dina (& Jesse!) (& not Shimmer 😔).

Along the way, we ponder whether Joel's fate was disproportionate to his actions, why the series chose to introduce spores now, if Jesse's rescue was necessary, and... between Ellie and Dina, who's Han Solo and who's Princess Leia?
