@ 5:45 Joel sleeps like that because he has better hearing in his left ear. Because they were laughing and presumably talked themselves to sleep that night, He wound up on his left side and thus could not hear the glass from Henry and Sam. They show him laying on his right side numerous times in the episode, so when you finally see him on the left, you can tell the difference.

[@crococrustaceans6645]

I was just about to say that. Good catch!

the fact that Joel probably learned the whole spreading broken glass trick from watching Mission: Impossible is such a wonderful little detail, since he canonically is a big fan of action movies.

[@SoldierSpiderx]

They finally made Joel and Ellie bond in a way that is natural. The chemistry was great, and i love how Joel finally laugh thanks to Ellie. Something which he hasn’t done in probably 2 decades

[@JoePizzeria007]

I love how the infected aren't in it constantly so their presence feels more scary and intimidating. Whereas walking dead zombies are present constantly and after the first couple seasons they not scary anymore

[@GOBIAS.INDUSTRIES.]

I see your point, but you can't even say "constantly" for the last 2 episodes - the infected flat out aren't in it at all. There's been amazing writing and character development, but NO infected. They've almost gone too far not showing them, to the point you almost forget they're even a threat 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@leiderhosen7110]

@@GOBIAS.INDUSTRIES. It's consistent world-building. The cordyceps thrives in dark, damp places and requires a constant stream of fresh hosts to thrive. Most infected don't survive beyond a year or two, so remote, open areas with a very low population density are unlikely to have any living infected running around as they will have died or migrated a long time ago. The tunnels beneath the city on the other hand are cramped, dark and wet, and tons of people looking for the qz supply fresh hosts, so it's a perfect breeding ground. The infected are basically an extension of a whole fungus ecosystem that requires specific conditions to thrive

[@TonyTylerDraws]

@@GOBIAS.INDUSTRIES. but part of the danger of the open country is that people are far more deadly than the infected. You see that with Bill enjoying a meal and watching an infected get killed for the umpteenth time, to almost dying from a coordinated human attack.

[@GOBIAS.INDUSTRIES.]

@@leiderhosen7110 Couldn't agree more about the world building, which has been amazing (and is the main reason we were all excited about Mazin leading this bad boy) 🤗 But the infected are a big part of the world and the audience should be reminded of them. I get that they're only around populated areas, but between episodes 3 & 4, they drove from Massachusetts to Missouri... they couldn't have had a clip of them dealing with the infected at some point on the trip? 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@GOBIAS.INDUSTRIES.]

@@TonyTylerDraws Even without having The Walking Dead to learn from, which literally ran the "Fight the Dead, Fear the Living" tagline straight into the ground, we understand after a couple episodes that people are more dangerous than the infected. The infected are what really can set this apart from other "zombie" media. This has an amazing story, but the infected can really take it to another level.

[@JakeTaaylor]

One of my fav moments I’m not hearing anyone talk about is the night they spent in the woods. Joel is trying to sleep until Ellie asks, “Do you think anyone will find us.” Joel responds, “No, no one is gonna find us”. Which is sweet because he and the audience both know that he can’t be certain they’re safe. But he gives her comfort and reassurance in telling her they’ll be safe there. A moment which forces Joel to reflect on his failures protecting his loved ones in the past. The next shot we see is Joel standing guard over Ellie while she sleeps. Setting up that Joel is gonna make damn sure that he doesn’t fail again, that he’ll protect Ellie at any cost.

[@malekaius]

That moment was indeed great but then it’s undercut by the ending. As if he lets his guard down for a second and pays for it by being ambushed

[@VGJunky]

@@malekaius you could also say that him staying up all night is the reason why he slept through the sound of the glass, on top of having his deaf ear up

[@malekaius]

@@VGJunky that’s a good point.

[@dansmart3182]

Kansas City is built on a shelf of Limestone. There are massive caves underneath the city, including the largest underground storage facility. Which is where the fungus has been growing and slowly eroding their way into the city. This is why they changed from Pittsburg to Kansas City.

[@Lespritdelescali]

Right - I think the idea is that most of the survivable places that people think "don't have the fungus" are ironically the places that are most infested, the fungus is just underground forming bloaters, rat kings, and root network hubs. It makes you wonder if Kathleen's group actually "overthrew" FEDRA so much as FEDRA decided to abandon the city because it's about to be "Fungi Canyon." I personally would find it really interesting if the writers went so far to structure it as Kathleen being *completely* wrong about what happened with her brother and it wasn't so much that he was this amazing visionary revolutionary who was betrayed in some sort of elaborate conspiracy and it was more like he was just some random infected dude or in the wrong place at the wrong time to them. Or if he was "betrayed" it wasn't by anyone that she thinks and only because he knew the city was about to collapse and *he* wanted to work with FEDRA to evacuate everyone.

[@rigby1899]

Damn big brain nice connection

[@Yoteeeeej]

Though I was initially underwhelmed by this shortest of 4 episodes, the more I think about it the more I like it. I find it really interesting how perceptive and observant Ellie is, pointing out how Joel's hearing from his right ear is deteriorated and the episode ends with him sleeping on his left side with his right ear up. I also love how when they sleep in the forest Ellie asks if anyone will find them, causing Joel to be paranoid and keep watch all night. Then after the ONE time he lets his guard down and laughs, it ends up almost costing them their lives allowing themselves to be ambushed by Henry and Sam. The more I think about this episode, the more I like it

20:20, Interesting to note, but one of notes left behind in Pittsburgh detail a vengeful mother intending to attack FEDRA for killing her son no matter who gets hurt while Joel, who only values survival, commenting how pointless her revenge would be since every one would be suffering and dying. This woman may be some kind of adaptation of this mother character, motivated by vengefulness against FEDRA and ultimately becoming even more as cruel and brutal than they were. It would certainly play off the franchise’s themes of people being reduced to savages, even formerly decent people like Joel and Ellie, by the brutal world they live in.

[@LotanLevant]

I like how they took some of the details from the Seattle resistance in TLOU 2 and mixed it with Pittsburgh raiders to make it more personable. I'm sure plenty of places had FEDRA wiped out, so it fits.

[@SamanthaNStuff]

[@micah_bernardo]

I thought Joel kept facing towards the door so he could hear better. (Since they've mentioned a few times that he's hard of hearing on his right side). In the end, he ended up facing Ellie (he might have rolled over while sleeping) which probably prevented him from hearing the intruders coming in.

Not going to lie the only thing I hate about the shows is the fact that I have to wait a week to watch the new episodes 😂

[@dessieangel1021]

This week is gonna be different since it’s gonna show this Friday instead of Sunday bc of the Super Bowl. So, you don’t have to wait as long!

[@liabw05]

Yay!!

[@Gutendog]

When they pass the corpses she says “I think we’re heading north”. The direction of the shadow shows they’re heading south

Magic Spoon is one of the things I will really miss while trying to survive the real apocalypse when it arrives.

[@MrJimheeren]

So let’s make sure it never arrives

22:02 I first saw her in Two and A Half Men lol. It's always fun watching an actors/actress who you first saw in a comedy show/movie and then see them in more serious roles.

[@senorjalapeno3937]

You forgot to mention that the right hand of Kathleen ,the soldier with the long beard is the actual voice actor who played Tommy. As soon as I heard his voice I knew he sounded familiar lol

Joel saying sorry to Ellie made me cry 🥺

[@OptimusProvost]

24:34 “WE THE PEOPLE!” Thank you Paul! 😂

[@SayGeee]

the scene with the bridge thats broken in the middle was shot in my hometown, that bridge is the only real thing going for our town Also fun fact: They actually had to make the bridge look nicer before shooting

[@jemimahlikesfood5792]

When Ellie brought out that pun book I screamed!

[@TheThieftwo]

Loving the show! Keep it up on the breakdowns too, they’re great!

[@mooknick242]

i was wondering if maybe something was supposed to happen in this episode besides exchanging a few puns and they just forgot to include it. Having that Kathleen lady be some sort of leader was ridiculous there is no one that would seriously follow her orders. lol it was nice seeing Joe; and Ell bond but that is about all this episode had to offer

[@gtfochimba]

You are fast mate! Great video

[@lexlex8892]

I literally started monologing the whole scene with ellie and joel and bill's porn mag like a CHUMP ...But it literally took me back to 2013 and my first time playing TLOU ...epic

[@PleeseCallMeDan]

A Mossberg 500 is a pump shotgun. Joel uses some sort of bolt action rifle.

[@schools6555]

I can't wait until I can Binge Watch the entire Season!

[@darthalvarez2046]

19:11 That's not a Mossberg 500. A Mossberg 500 is a pump-action shotgun, which is likely the model they used for the shotgun in the games. The rifle Joel is carrying is likely a Remington 700, Winchester Model 70, or Sako 85 as these are the most common wooden-body bolt-action hunting rifles in the U.S.

[@MrQdiddy85]

Even in the post apocalypse I still don't think I'd choose to eat at Arby's

[@KenRen-hw8uv]

Great video, small correction. Joel’s gun is not a Mossberg 500. The Mossberg 500 is a pump action shotgun where the gun he uses is a bolt action rifle.
