This episode was weird. Joel gave Ellie the ick by almost dying and needing Ellie to stitch him up. She wanted to see his vulnerable side, but the second he showed it she regretted wanting to see it and it made her not like him anymore. Then he kept talking about his daughter to Ellie like his daughter was an ex and Ellie didn't like that either. Joel basically turned into a clingy "nice guy" and Ellie liked him more when he had that bad boy mystique. Ellie might be a lesbian but she has straight hoe tendencies.

You read that dynamic waaaaayyyy differently than I did lol
I thought that change in her to being more aloof and withdrawn had to do with the trauma of almost being raped and eaten and having to hack a man to death, but I guess, that’s just another way of looking at it.

I was mostly joking.
Honestly tho, I would rate the season a solid B. It doesn't live up to the hype for me but still good television worth watching.
It’s funny because you’re going to feel immense guilt no matter what choice is picked

His brother is part of that millions.. along with his either niece or nephew
Dude that surrendered and put down his gun and Joell killed him anyway
Who?
Tommy fine, he's safe
Fuck that dude, letting him live and he would have shot while Joel escaping from the place
Can't name names but it's some people in here who was waiting on Joel and Ellie to form a connection and now people saying Joel should have let her die

Read back through the thread, people were waiting on them to form a bond now things have shifted to he should have left her

A lot of cures you know today we’re just “theories” at some point. Why try anything in that case? It’s all a theory right?

Curious how people felt about that cliffhanger that never played the game

Just kind of hokey a little bit and some stuff wasn't super well done. Joel picking up a Mini-14 off one of the guys he killed, and then taking a mags for an M4 off the other dead guy. A mag for an M4 would not work with a Mini-14. Things like these really annoy me. Then him just killing 20 people with storm trooper aim doesn't seem real to me.
Also Nic Offerman grabbing a fucking deer rifle to engage raiders when he has a plethora of military grade weapons to fight with.
I think some of the video game style level bosses worked better than others. The preacher was a good villain to introduce and kill off in an episode, while the Fedra gal episode wasn't so great.

Did those cures involve cutting out the brain of your surrogate daughter?
