The Last of Us | Joel and Tess Find Out That Ellie Is Infected

[@enzomezacasa]

4:26 to 4:36. The world succumbed so long ago to the Cordyceps infection that Joel has lost his faith on the cure. It’s a small dialogue, but tell so much about the hopelessness of the remaining humans.

[@sutlive22]

Do you feel like this moment and scene is depicted well versus the video game? I think this is set up and acted well however the video game moment of the same exchange feels more raw with the rain and dark skies seeming like a fourth character or an omen. @enzomezacasa

Anna Torv was the best casting choice for this show. She felt as close to the game character more than anyone else.

[@Bloooo95]

If we not include Marleen then yes. 😉

[@MR.ICE.]

@@Bloooo95 Very true. Marlene being the same actress from the game was perfect.

[@KidAstronaut]

I miss her. Wish we got more time with her and Sarah.

[@_essence_07]

totally agree, i also liked the casting for tommy and maria. pedro and bella are some of the weaker performances in the show imo.

[@MR.ICE.]

@@_essence_07 Yep, this is exactly how I feel.

[@iammr24]

Tess's tune immediately changes when she sees Ellie eating a sandwich. The virus transferred through flour and stuff; the bread Ellie is eating would obviously have to be "new" and likewise not infected, but part of me wonders if Marlene packed it as a nudge nudge. As far as I can tell, Ellie eating bread is right about when Tess seems to mull the thought over extra hard and change her tune.

[@bluepower1177]

Huh that’s actually a pretty cool observation I didn’t consider that. Good work 🤙🏼

[@plesnivyzajac]

great bread eating continuity between 3:32 and 3:38

[@Mia7189]

It would be great to have a flashback episode in season 2 of how Tess and Joel met and the things they did.

[@hectorcastillo3943]

Oh yes yes yes yes that is what the gamers expected with tlou2, see Joel, Tess and Tommy back in their dark days when they were hunters, but they just showed us entirely Abby's character and not Even a glimpse of Joel's past, before Ellie

[@shino8854]

Defo need a prequel game. Defo need a prequel spin off series.

[@quitmakingmelaugh]

@@hectorcastillo3943yeah because the story isn’t about Joel, it’s about Ellie, otherwise left behind would’ve been based around joel but it wasn’t, was it?

[@stephengrigg5988]

​@@quitmakingmelaughjust because a dlc focused on ellie doesn't mean that Joel wasn't just as important overall. The first game was about *both* of them, and if you forced me to pick, Joel is more the main character in the first one. The whole game is building to his decision, and he has the most agency over the plot. And if you dont think it's fair to say that fans wanted to see more of Joel in tlou2, I dont know what to tell you😂

[@incarnateTheGreat]

I was thinking that the story provides a wonderful opportunity at a prequel for Joel, Tess, and his brother.

[@ziachung4547]

Tess is so badass. The actress absolutely nailed it

[@Roberto2278x]

I hate that she doesn’t look like the video game Tess but she did a good job. In the game she looks young and fine and here she looks like a grandma

I wish Anna Torv's character had lasted longer, but i guess they needed to focus on Joel and Ellie.

I thought Post Outbreak Era, All the bread got contaminated? but however it doesn’t matter for Ellie because she’s immune!

[@slappy8941]

Post Outbreak Era! 😂😂😂😂 Why did you write it like that?

[@emilylewis5373]

Not all bread. Just one big batch of flour. Any wheat or grain grown after outbreak would be fine. Or any not from that one facility.

[@johncampbell631]

​​​​@@emilylewis5373 'Would be fine?' The cities are bursting at the seams with Cordyceps. The spores would carry on the wind for miles and make consuming any grain a gigantic risk after the outbreak.

[@Finn-wc8nq]

@@johncampbell631there doesn’t seem to be spores like in game in the tv show

[@etienne8110]

​@@johncampbell631 It is a plothole, both in game and in série. If the spores can contaminate through breathing (thus the gasmasks) and can carry for miles through the wind, humanity would already be over. Probably can be fixed by saying the spores doesn t survive long, so any flour stored for a while is good. And the fast shipements back then was the cause for the outbreak?

Why kill someone if they're infected? They didn't choose to be, let them live their days in peace.

[@toxicfataldestiny5408]

You’d say that until the person started turning and coming after you.

[@olgabahirkina1286]

Pretty sure the only reason people survived is cause they killed every infected suspect.

[@amandalogan89]

“Peace”? Turning into a running and into cannibalism? Early on in the game you can find runners crying. Plus, basic safety. Don’t allow free roaming infected to wander and spread a deadly disease

[@HaydrogenBomb]

You know what getting infected entails, do you? Did you play the game or watch the show.
