An alligator in a vest - An investigator

[@JL-cn1qi]

Alligator wearing a jacket, but yeah.

[@Lee_Forre]

Terrific channel. Your Last Of Us reactions are wonderful. Would love to see you react to other types of videos. Music or other films. You two are great.

[@Reece_Hart]

Cool that we're seeing an episode where Trent hasn't got the prior game experience for it and can watch it completely blind. The DLC itself though is around 2 and a half to 3 hours with most of it being the flashback with Ellie and Riley so they pulled almost all of it for the episode. There was also a little bit at the start with the Fedra school that was pulled from the comic book that was released. It's hard to believe we're already down to the last 2 episodes

[@system0fadowner251]

Yep were officially in the endgame now which is exciting and terrifying. More heartbreak, but also more beauty coming

[@xwpfan2]

Love your reactions. Hey, FYI, Ellie did meet Marlene (that was back in episode 1). She's the one who had Ellie locked up to the radiator. She knows Ellie is immune as was in the process of getting Ellie out of the QZ until their place got shot up. She commissioned Joel and Tess to take Ellie out of the QZ to meet up with Fireflies outside of Boston.

The moment where cut back to Joel and he’s shivering/his teeth are chattering broke my heart. He’s probably cold because they’re in that freezing basement, and I imagine you can feel cold from loss of blood/a fever from infection…wish Ellie had given Joel her winter hat or an extra blanket. I was thinking, “Can we please bundle Pedro up a little more…he’s chilly!” 😢🥶

[@roboct6]

You guys are fun to watch! Great reactions. I know you like a specific kind of show to watch but you should consider expanding out a little to other kinds of shows because you’re both good at this. I know I’d watch.

Once you hear foreboding music and see a creepy doll store, you know things are about to go bad.

[@toukie]

I don't know if it's been said somewhere or not, but Marlene told Ellie in the beginning that she put Ellie with Fedra because it's where she would be safest "until she decided to sneak out" so I wonder if Riley was being sent away because she was a bad influence on Ellie and she risked getting her in trouble (which, she did).

[@catindigo9907]

80s music = trouble, just got that

[@AmanCreatesArt]

Great job! Enjoyed your discussion at the end. This has become one of my three go-to reaction channels! 👍🏽

[@Lost_Northerner]

You guys are a great couple to watch, looking forward to watching more. Trent what did you do to your hand? Hope it heals fast!

[@TerryYelmene]

This is an excellent, excellent reaction all the way through... but when Julia grabs her side just as Ellie was about to begin stitching up Joel... well... that's so real.

[@bestistmate]

I watch this hoping for Trents affected eyes at the end . and there we go so sweet 34:59

[@daven4297]

I wonder where they got the batteries for the Walkman or the flashlight? After all, entire economies died, and so did the industry. So where did they get them from. When I bought batteries, they never lasted more than a few years in the drawer. Secondly. Where did they get the ammunition? After all, they had to refill it since they were constantly shooting. Someone will say that FEDRA supported companies like the arms industry, the food industry, etc. But we don't know that. Especially since the most profitable job in QZ was cleaning sewage... There's no sense here... I had similar questions in the previous episode with Jackson. Where did they replenish all those supplies. They had farms, probably had vegetable gardens, etc. But where did they replenish the ammunition?

[@gailseatonhumbert]

Good reaction and discussion. We've known what drives Joel's character from the very beginning and now we know about Ellie.

Thanks, Julia! Thanks, Trent! 🏬 #FandomZone #TheLastOfUs #TLOU #TheLastOfUsHBO

I love your reactions. You have already unpacked a lot of what the episode had to give. Maybe I have some additions here. The mall is located in the QC. Quarantine means cleaned zone. Usually no infected. Therefore, people who enter or leave without permission are also executed by Fedra. This prevents infected people from contaminating this zone. It was just propaganda to claim that they were full of infected to prevent people from going in. That there was finally an infected in it is unfortunate, but by no means predictable. Probably a smuggler who came back to the zone infected. That's why Ellie and Riley are so carefree with noise. In addition, both have never seen one before because they grew up in QC. Everything they know, they know from propaganda. Last episode Ellie got liquor from Joel and said "still gross". With Riley here she had her first. Mileena's finisher was already a topic in episode 3 when Ellie and Joel found the non-working MK machine. Then she told Joel that she once had a friend who knew everything about it and she described to him how Mileena sucks up and spits out her opponent. If you payed attention, the episode shows you how the story with Ellie and Riley ends. They don't have to show that explicitly. Riley played Mileena in MK2 and Ellie played Baraka (last game). Baraka skewered Mileena with his blades as finisher. That was the metaphorical endgame. Ellie had to kill Riley. Most likely with her knife. I don't think she used Riley's pistol. She would have had to disarm her first and it wouldn't have caused such a heavy reaction from her when she shot Bryan. That's why Ellie asked Joel in episode 2 what it was like for him to kill an infected, knowing that they once were human. I think she needed a comparison to her own feelings because she couldn't classify them. That's why she tortured and stabbed the stalker with her knife in episode 3. She first wanted to see if he felt something and then the anger broke through and she killed him because an infected bit Riley. Ellie kills Riley and because Riley didn't get in touch with Marlene the next day, she showed up at the mall, saw and took Ellie with her. She has prevented Ellie from being shot by her people, because she knows Ellie. As we learned in episode 1, it was Marlene who brought Ellie to Fedra Orphanage as a Baby. Marlene then locked her up for 3 weeks to see if she turned. The escalator can also be seen metaphorically. No matter how much Ellie runs against it (sometimes everything stays the same, sometimes there are highs), it still goes further and further downhill for her. Also, we've learned that Ellie's first impulse is to leave when she feels pushed away or is pushed away or is disappointed in any way, but she keeps coming back. This is one parallel between Joel and Riley. Another parallel is, both are Ellie's protectors. And don't forget Ellie's greatest fear of ending up alone. In the end, she will try everything possible to save Joel or even the world, which she was not able to do with Riley. Ellie has lost Riley and Sam to the fungus. She is the cure. She wants her survival to have value. Here it is shown no matter Fedra or Fireflys, for both you are just a number. They tell you what you want to hear and what benefits them, to achieve the respective goals. The officer at the beginning may be really nice, but he's definitely manipulative and told Ellie bullshit. There is no leader at all in Ellie. Riley brings everything that makes a leader and she was assigned to the sewers. There are always only 2 options to choose from and both are manipulated into thinking there are not more. There is only one clearly good or one clearly bad choice. Leaving Fedra obviously does not exist as an option. But orphans are easy to manipulate, as you can see from Ellie, who simply repeats what the officer told her in the conversation with Riley. Which in turn also shows that she is not a leader. And also with Fedra the people starve and kill each other, whereby Fedra officers lack nothing. The Fireflys are no different. Everyone comes in quickly, they made you feel you belong to a family and you are important to them. In fact, Riley is parked alone in the mall with bombs. These also kill civilians, as we saw in Episode 1 on Tess when one of these bombs exploded, killing two teenager. The series in general is all about the number 2. Bill and Frank, Ellie and Joel, Ellie and Riley, Sam and Henry, Joel and Tommy, Kathleen and Daniel, always only two choices, Mortal Kombat 2, joke book volume 2, t(w)ogethernes I actually thought Ashley Johnson (OG Ellie) would have her cameo here. Obviously, this was not the case, but it comes later in another memory. Most likely in the season finale. Next episode Troy Baker (OG Joel) will get his cameo. An important question was not answered. What do you call an alligator in a vest? An investigator. 😁 Your welcome. On the officer's keys was the Naughty Dog emblem.

[@NoShiiitSherlock]

Profoundly sad

[@johndock9164]

Honestly I am disappointed with this 7th one. Extremely stretched. In fact so stretched it became annoying.

[@_subzero_3941]

Walk away? Like a coward? Don´t think so......

[@catindigo9907]

80s music = trouble, just got that in this episode

[@jubilantsleep]

Ah-ha!

[@aviatrix7774]
