[@waynejohnson9374]

My problem is that they basically added a happy ending to a not so happy world. Bill being a crazy asshole with traps everywhere more accurately depicted how a human by themselves would be like for that many years. No to mention in the game, they were partners but had didn't have a great relationship as Frank left in his suicide note because he got bit. I think they catered to non gameplayers with the direction that this episode went.

Tess and Joel got 13 yrs together in the apocalypse any thing over 2 yrs is a life time In that world

[@waynejohnson9374]

@@killerx4227 Everyone is fooled by what happened in the episode... Wait until the end of season 1 and you'll know that this episode gives zero to no relevance to the actually story... At least in the game Bill's Town shows the eerie ambiance of an abandoned town that can be explored post apocalypse. For instance, the dialogue in the vinyl record store is simple but hits hard. Exploring Bill's Town was satisfying yet scary because I still thought a clicker would pop out of no where, which it does before it runs into a trap. That's the true reality of this world, infected could be anywhere at anytime and they watered it down with this backstory. I love that there was a backstory but this is something that should have stayed true to the game. This was nothing but a "filler" episode.

[@demian9715]

@@waynejohnson9374 it adds alot to the story by simply showing what it means to survive in this world (Bill before he met Frank) and to live in this world (Bill after he met Frank). That's the same development Joel will have with Ellie.

[@waynejohnson9374]

@@demian9715 I get what you're trying to say there, but in my opinion (and it's just my opinion) I think so far the game has shown a more accurate depiction of what survival in this world is than the show has. I'm open to see where the rest of the series goes because I have been waiting for it for a long time, but the last two episodes just didn't do it for me.

i loved this portrayal of bill and frank, especially on how they went out. i think that a lot of people focus so much on the infecteds impact on the world, we often forget that other illnesses exist, such as cancer. no matter how much you try to survive, those illnesses can occur in anyone.

[@pabloc8808]

Speaking of how they went out: "Paying attention to things is how we show love", Frank said as he tried to convince Bill to renovate part of their "neighborhood". Frank paid attention to everything, always, so much that as he drank his last glass of wine he could tell there were already pills in the bottle. It's how he showed love

The main point behind them not being called zombies is the fact that they are not dead. The infected are still living, just not in control of their body and minds. But they are still somewhat present, just unable to do anything. People say in the game you can hear some of them cry while feeding on others because of this.

Also, the show didn't specify the illness, but co-creator says Frank has MS or early stages of ALS. And the marriage at the end of the episode is even more powerful if you think about it. In this show, the world fell in 2003 and Gay marriage was not legal as Massachusetts became the first to legalize it in 2004 in the real world. This makes Bill and Frank's marriage at the end of the episode even more beautiful, with the two joining together in a way their world did not legally allow.

Joel notices that there is a hanged corpse in the room. Joel asks if Bill knows the man. It does; it is the body of Frank, Bill's former partner. He had hanged himself after becoming infected, not wanting to become a monster. Despite trying not to show it, Bill is saddened by her death. Joel finds a suicide note near Frank's body, in which Frank tells Bill that he hated him. Bill is puzzled by this, but again tries his best not to show it. Throw away the note after reading it. I guess you were right. If I try to leave this city, I will die. Still, it's better than spending another day with you. Frank lived in Lincoln with Bill. The pair survived in the city for nearly twenty years together, fortifying it against infected attacks and ensuring that any wayward survivors did not enter the city. Bill described Frank as his old partner, someone he cared about. Despite this, Frank grew tired of Bill's survival methods. Because of this, he left Bill, stealing many supplies and a car battery from a military truck at the high school on the way to the truck at his hideout. On the way back, Frank was bitten several times by a horde of infected. He hanged himself at home so as not to succumb to the Cordyceps brain infection. Frank left Bill a note telling him how he "hated his guts", getting tired of Bill's ways and how he ran the town.

[@kkjhn41]

Interesting that on the show in the note Bill wrote for Joel, he tells him he never liked him, but he respected him. It is a nod to the note Frank left in the game telling Bill that he never liked him the difference being in the show Bill was probably joking about not liking Joel while in the game Frank was serious about hating Bill. In fact, he got bit because he left tp get away from Bill. In the game Bill crumpled up the note and threw it away while Joel did the same on the show.

[@magnuscordoviz486]

Bill was standing outside in the open so that the raiders won't shoot at the house where frank is.

While I am bummed we didn't get to see an interaction between Ellie and Bill, and that they omitted one of the better sections of the game, trying to pull off that entire sequence within a single episode would have been a near impossible task. Nevertheless, I'm completely satisfied with this beautiful character study of Bill. Excited to see where they take the series next.

[@TheNeonParadox]

Some people didn't like the diversion since we missed out on some fun character interactions between Ellie and Bill, but it's a fair tradeoff in my opinion. Actually getting a fulfilling back story between Frank and Bill is worth it for me. That little nod at the end was nice, too. "It's like a spaceship." If you know, you know.

You stab anything in the brain, it usually dies, genius…

[@eme.261]

39:27 Frank didn't have cancer. Per the showrunner, Craig Mazin, he was suffering from a degenerative neuromuscular disorder, either ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) or MS (multiple sclerosis). Considering the symptoms of either, I can definitely understand Frank coming to the decision to only have one more day of the suffering. ALS is a neurodegenerative disease that affects nerves in the brain and spinal cord. It is usually caused by a combination of environment and inherited genes; although, some unlucky few are destined to have it simply due to genetics. ALS is fatal, with a life expectancy of 2 - 5 years, with a steady decline in functions from the time when symptoms present. Typical symptoms are difficulty walking, weakness in the legs and hands, slurred speech, trouble swallowing, muscle twitches, and cognitive behavioral changes. It also destroys nerve cells, which can affect breathing as it worsens. Multiple sclerosis is a disease that attacks the central nervous system of the body, including the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. There's no cure for MS. While in itself it isn't fatal, a sufferer can have difficulties that lead to death. Major MS symptoms are depression, pain, vertigo, bowel and bladder problems, weakness, vision difficulties, stiffness, numbness, and walking difficulties.

[@killgoretrout9000]

While it's not said ALS is the likely culprit. I've had some experience with MS my mom had it and she was 28 years from diagnosis to death and I had an uncle who had it and he was ~15 years from diagnoses to death. ALS is much quicker something like 5 years from diagnosis to death typically. That said the symptoms of both diseases look very similar and the scene with Bill putting Frank into bed hit me hard as I had been there and done that with my mom.

[@OrdemDoGraveto]

They are "zombies". They Just arent undeads. The first zombies ever in cinema werent undead eighter. They were mind controled people. Basically all that is needed to be a "zombie" is being mindless, but still moving. Thats why we literraly refer to the ants that get the fongus as "zombies" in biology.

HUMANS No they're not zombies, for the simple fact that they're not dead or undead, they're humans being mind-controlled by the fungi. They are killed when you kill or destroy the fungus not the brain, that's why clickers in episode 2 didn't die from headshots.

[@chance1774]

they ARE killed when you destroy the brain; clickers are hard because they’ve grown that “armor” around their heads

[@drago2drago]

Do want to add, it wasn't because of Joel and tess that raiders showed up. Joel just warned them about the inevitable. They managed to keep up a connection and trades reliably for 3 years and they made it a long time with no incidents. That aside, their story is what so many zombie shows and movies miss out on and that's the love. Their story ended in death but the whole way through it was all about love and life and teaching each other to enjoy the world they were in despite the circumstances of it. Even through the end of the world they kept their humanity and found a way to grow old which in itself was incredible

[@jakeiwnl]

"Stab them in the brain and they die" hahaha I giggled at that. Yes that is true that they die if you stab them in the head, but that's not the only way they can die. The fungus needs a LIVING host. If you remember, in the game you sneak up on some infected and you can strangle them to death as well. They're living and the fungus controls their body from their brain and their muscles. It's pretty terrifying because that's a real thing that cordyceps do to insects.

If you stab a human in the brain they will also die, which is why the Infected will die as well.

The third episode is definitely my favourite so far (up to 5th episode). You just didn't expect this kind of story (and being a gay romantic story) to be depicted in such detail. The relationship dynamic between Frank and Bill is so natural and effortless. What's so brilliant about the script is that the writer dropped so many small details so viewers can just make their own inferences of what is happening. For example, they never mentioned about Frank's disease (but audience gets it by how Frank has lost most of the mobility issue). In Bill's letter to Joel, he mentions about how he hated the world until that special someone comes to his life--this reflects his hatred of the world as a closet-gay man in a small country town. Plus, the back story of the radio which comes from Frank reaching out to Tess. Brilliant piece of work. And yes, I got teary eyes as well :o

What were the "terrible things" Joel and Tess did? Well, Joel says with the utmost certainty that "there will be raiders, they will come at night, quiet and armed, and they'll beat the fence and the traps". You can safely assume that's something he has done before: come at night, beat the fence and the traps, wipe everyone out quietly. Considering he's a smuggler even other smugglers fear (as stated in episode 1), Joel must be a menace, even in this world.

It's not a big deal to me, but I understand why people would prefer the infected not be called zombies. Until they actually die and are used by the fungis to spread spores, the people who are infected are living. Even the clickers, gross as they look, are still living. Zombies are reanimated dead. The people have been killed one way or another, but their bodies still move.

Being undead is not required to be a "zombie". The first zombies ever in cinema were not dead, they were just mind controled. And in biology we literally refer to the Insects controled by the fungus as "zombies".

@PanonAzeroth just because people choose to refer to something as a "zombie" does not mean it truly is one with respect to the true meaning of the term. I personally refer to people who constantly stare into their phones as tech zombies, but I do so only because they resemble actual zombies with their fixation on their devices. The formal/true definition of the word is that of a reanimated corpse. Like I said, I'm not super concerned about the use of the term in relation to TLoU.

I can't say anymore than "Incredible well done"

[@opiumfx]

The same actor from show and game is Marlene

[@jhonkings1510]

Wow What Episode !

[@gengen0302]

I don't think it's the infected that alert each other, but the actual cordyceps fungus growing on/under the ground that alerts the infected to locations where it's been disturbed.

One of the best episodes of tv i have ever seen.

Joel, tess and Bill knew each other in the game and are all "friends" more or less, however in the game, joel doesn't know who frank is. Bill, Joel and Ellie find his corpse randomly, turns out frank commits suicide because he was infected. Also Bill surivies in the game.

[@tomh779]

Watching Bill cry was like watching my grandpa cry. I don't wanna see that cause it'll make me cry!

[@WorldClassSatanist]

Great show

[@clover2739]

You probably didn’t notice it while watching but Tess mentioned Bill and Frank in the last episode and then at the beginning of this one Joel tells Ellie that Frank is nice, when she asked if Bill and Frank are nice. Bill is in the game and is alive so it’s a big difference but I like what they did here more, Bill was still gay and was implied that Frank and him were lovers how it didn’t end well and Frank left Bill which got himself bit so he hung himself

[@gumperP]

Great reaction, now I don't know if this is the same for anyone else, but your own promo around the 28 min mark appears to be silent, with no audio. Just a heads up. :)

Zombies would imply that they died then came back to life. These are still people with a fungus growing inside of them controlling them. They're still even aware of the things they're doing during the first few months of infection but have no control over it. In the game you can hear runners crying and saying sorry and stuff like that.

[@OrdemDoGraveto]

No. Being undead is not required to be a "zombie". The first zombies ever in cinema were not dead, they were just mind controled. And in biology we literally refer to the Insects controled by the fungus as "zombies".

[@egglick8139]

[@kratosGOW]

Marlene is the character played by the same actress both in the show and in the games.

[@kratosGOW]

Just as an FYI, let me elaborate on the different names of stages of infected. 1. When an infected doesn’t have any visible fungal growth, they’re called “runners”. 2. When an infected has fungal growths on the head BUT can still see, they’re called “stalkers”. 3. When an infected has fungal growths on the head such that they are blind and are now using echolocation, they’re called “clickers”. There are others of course but this is a spoiler-free version for you guys. You know, if you’d like to stick with the game’s nomenclature to satisfy pedantic gamers like myself. 😅😆

[@Sc0pe777]

RIP Ron and Mike

[@Mistah47]

14:22 Yes he’s gay in the game too, but it’s only alluded to, he refers to Frank as his partner, and we never see Frank alive in the game.

It's interesting the Walking Dead comparisons because this episode was like the antithesis of the Walking Dead. It's like they said, "What would Walking Dead do here?" and just decided, "Okay, let's do the opposite." There was no jump scares every time things got intimate or serious. There was no zombie jumping out to ruin a moment or to snatch someone's life right when they are happiest. There was no cheap deaths done as a gimmick to shock or break your heart. They played the episode entirely straight, they played it totally sincere, and knocked it out of the park with maybe the best episode of TV in years. Really a masterclass in writing and directing and acting.
