Hate reactions

[@phantommangagirl]

When Bill said “There is no girl” was a defining moment for him. He could’ve easily lied and said he was playing for his wife or girlfriend or whoever, but he told him the truth. That’s how deep he felt the connection.

[@j0ellyfish]

Either that or there was no one to be afraid of anymore.

[@Spoopball]

"It's my favorite" Frank mumbled that before starting to play. So they were both kinda being vulnerable, and the character of frank was introduced as "being a bad liar" so Bill took the comment at face value. Part of the scenario was it was the end of the world, so there really wasn't a real reason to lie to one another, part of it was that they didn't want to.

This was one of the most emotional parts of this episode, it really got me when bill started his sad version of the song reflecting on all these years he went by surviving totally alone.

[@caronstout354]

What struck me about this scene...he didn't need the sheet music to play the tune...probably knew the piece by ❤

[@ShippiddSocial]

Frank: *Plays Long Long Time like a show tune* Bill: ... and I took that personally.

[@boba6890]

The acting by Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett is amazing, it's like you're in the room. Bill is increasingly unable to stand Frank playing "Long Long Time", not just badly, but like a jaunty jig. Bill's "No, No, Not This Song" tells us so much. A song about unrequited love is precious to Bill; Bill doesn't need the book when he plays/sings, he knows it by heart. Frank's subtle facial expressions speak volumes; he sees into Bill's soul. Bill presents himself as a stereotype; a gun-toting misanthrope. Reality is far more complicated. Bill is highly cultured, and he's an incurable romantic who always believed in true love yet endured a life without it. If I didn't know better I'd think I was watching a scene from a brilliant Jane Austen adaptation. This is the best movie I've seen in years and it's a bottle-episode from a series about a zombie apocalypse. People speak about how love endures and about the redemptive power of love. This story set in a broken world where all chance of love and redemption shouldn't exist proves that it's real. This deserves all the awards.

[@lunaretic3]

What? I like when the raiders got set on fire. YeehAW!

[@deirdremorris9234]

Well written!

[@ChipittyChak]

The real reason I loved this scene is cause you get to see their COMPLETELY different personalities. Frank starts off with playing it so upbeat and almost with a happy feeling. Then Bill steps up to the piano you see how more quiet and serious he plays it. It’s such a great metaphor for their personalities in general. Frank has happy-go-lucky personality traits and Bill is much more serious person, but he has so much heart and so much passion which is definitely displayed in his rendition of the song. Just a little beautiful moment of love

[@Hop3fulRomantic]

There was just something so beautiful about how Frank just KNEW which music was Bill's, and that he turned out to be right. The fact that the song he chose to play, that he said was his favourite, happened to be Bill's favourite too (shown by how Bill knew it completely by heart) was just so pure and sweet. It's something that instantly connects them. And actually shows how alike they are, they just express themselves differently. The way they both play the song so differently shows not only their different personalities but also the different experiences they've both had in their lives and how those experiences affected them and shaped them differently. Like you say Frank was the happy-go-lucky, carefree, positive one whilst Bill was the more careful, cautious, serious one but deep down had so much love he wanted to give and... also always wanted to one day receive. And they balanced each other perfectly. Bill taught Frank how to survive. Frank showed Bill how to live.

[@whereuwannabe7796]

Bill could have literally stuck to his guns and sent Frank packing but he took a chance and was rewarded with something he probably thought he'd never have... love.

[@trippiehippie5262]

That's what I love so much about it. He knew the risks of getting attached and distanced himself from the possibility. But Frank appealed to something Bill thought he lost: his humanity.

[@keandregreen5628]

Yeah that’s not love

I had to say, the contrast between Frank version of the song being more “comedic” and “fast”, was completely shadowed by the beautiful, sad and good version of Bill’s.

[@2Chenzzzz]

Normally it's the original source that is the best part of any adaptation. But what they did here with Bill and Frank was so much better than what was in the game. Not saying the game was at any fault. This story could've only been told in a tv show format and I am so glad they made this incredible backstory for Bill and Frank.

[@outdoorscholar6016]

I’m glad they added more to it because in the game, Bill is nothing more than a McGuffin that gives Joel a car and a shotgun, and we never see or hear of him again. HBO fleshed him out in a way that made me like him

And Offerman's version of this song, was just so raw, gripping with emotion. Was literally melting when I watched this. It's a bittersweet feeling that they fitted Bill and Frank's story all in one episode. But it was done so effortlessly and their relationship came so naturally. And I love that they fitted Offerman's iconic laughter in the episode! Love it! 😂🤣✨♥️

For a relationship between tertiary characters in the game, that was only hinted at, I wasn't sure how I felt as the episode fleshed out their characters more. By the end of it, I was engaged and moved in ways I was not sure I was capable of experiencing.

Love will abide Take things in stride Sounds like good advice But there's no one at my side And time washes clean love's wounds unseen That's what someone told me But I don't know what it means. 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long long time. Caught in my fears Blinking back the tears I can't say you hurt me When you never let me near And I never drew one response from you All the while you fell all over girls you never knew. 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think it's gonna hurt me For a long long time. Wait for the day you'll go away Knowing that you warned me Of the price I'd have to pay And life's full of flaws Who knows the cause? Living in the memory of a love that never was. 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and change your mind And I think I'm gonna miss you For a long long time. 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long long time.
