him that will be coming out very

Ultimately, their route is
blocked, trying to circumvent.

They go off course and are LED

And she is willing to tear the

70
00:04:13,100 --> 00:04:17,100
Foreboding cracked asphalt

to that.
Let us officially take a bite of
77
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,800
The Last of Us episode 5 and
door and survive.
78
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,500
Okay, well, you know, such a
menacing named Kathleen who
79
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:54,100
would have thought the villain
named Kathleen.
80
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,200
Yeah.
And you know what it out, you
81
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,200
know what, you know what else it
is about Kathleen, is that her
82
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,000
voice?
Is actually like a very soft
83
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
sweet Cadence.
Oh yeah, yeah.
84
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,400
She's like, you're a rat.
Kill them all.
85
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:09,700
It's like, whoa.
Whoa, your informants inform.
86
00:05:09,700 --> 00:05:14,900
I'm like, okay my gosh, just
like the present she has.
87
00:05:14,900 --> 00:05:18,000
And the way that we all sort of
like kowtow to her, you know,
88
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,100
they're there is a piece of me,
that wishes that we did get to
89
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:24,200
see a little bit of how she came
to power there.
90
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:26,300
No, thank you.
I want to know.
91
00:05:26,300 --> 00:05:28,100
No.
I mean the Glimpse that we get
92
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:33,000
of her prior To the cul-de-sac
scene and we see how she treated
93
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,900
the informant / Cora, coopera,
collaborators collaborators, I
94
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:39,500
was Robert Raiders.
Yeah, it's good.
95
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,700
Crab was Bar and Grill.
Delicious, mmm.
96
00:05:44,100 --> 00:05:48,600
Well, but we saw how she dealt
with those people and how she
97
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:50,800
is.
Just for violence, gives no
98
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,000
fucks.
Straight ahead and she
99
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,700
manipulates do 100% bait and
switch like nobody's business.
100
00:05:57,700 --> 00:05:59,700
Yeah, I don't think I can handle
more.
101
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:02,700
I liked her but I'm glad she's
gone.
102
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,800
No, totally agree.
No, I don't want to ever see.
103
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,500
I mean, we won't I don't ever
want to see her dealing with
104
00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:12,800
with Joel and Ellie again, but I
want to, I want the little bit
105
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,700
of a prequel to that that qz.
And, you know, was it really her
106
00:06:17,700 --> 00:06:19,200
role?
Or was it really her brother's
107
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,600
role?
And then she just happened to
108
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,800
take over when he died.
Yeah. 100% was her brother's
109
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,200
role and then she had to take
the reins which you didn't have
110
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,700
to should have had an election.
Yeah.
111
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,100
Yeah, democracy baby.
Well, I mean, I also am curious
112
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:37,200
because so much of the Romantic
relationships in The Last of Us
113
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,300
aside from some of the ones in
part to aren't explicitly said
114
00:06:42,300 --> 00:06:47,100
or shown, and I'm curious if
Kathleen and Perry there are
115
00:06:47,100 --> 00:06:49,800
some moments in, this one's
particularly in the cul-de-sac,
116
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:55,200
but he's just so willing to, I
don't know, just appease her and
117
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,600
do what she asked that it's a
little more than just a right
118
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,900
hand henchmen.
Situation.
119
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,600
And I'm curious if there is some
Romanticism happening there.
120
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,200
Yeah, his partner her, or it's
mutual, I don't know.
121
00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:12,800
You know, or maybe maybe it was
something that Harry was her
122
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,200
brother's right hand person
lover.
123
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:20,900
Oh, you know, I'm always pulling
for that lgbtqia+ storyline
124
00:07:20,900 --> 00:07:23,200
baby.
Yeah, something like that.
125
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,100
Or just best friends.
So, he feels like it's his duty
126
00:07:25,100 --> 00:07:27,400
to stick to Kathleen, man.
Best friends.
127
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,200
I don't know if I'd go that far,
like, for my Best friend to like
128
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,600
kill a group of people.
Yeah, I don't know.
129
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,600
It's, it's not good.
Whatever it is, you know, this
130
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,500
whole, this whole sort of
storyline really gives me Hunger
131
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:42,600
Games Vibes.
You know, the last movie when
132
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,000
coins, like I know, it will do,
it's like, well, kind of meets
133
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000
the same fate, she does, you
will see her and Ballad of song
134
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,100
birds and snakes.
This she's gonna be in that one.
135
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,100
But so Kathleen and Perry and
the terrible, I mean, there's a
136
00:07:57,100 --> 00:07:59,700
line that I believe cred
pragmas.
137
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:04,700
I said and it's also just said
throughout history that usually
138
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,300
the people that overthrow the
oppressors are just as bad as
139
00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:11,700
the people that were oppressing.
Them typically throughout
140
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:13,800
history and this is just a case
in point.
141
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,500
Yeah, it's all that power,
right?
142
00:08:15,500 --> 00:08:18,300
It's like, even though they
wanted that freedom, what do
143
00:08:18,300 --> 00:08:20,500
they end up doing freedom to do
what I mean?
144
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:25,300
I mean, I granted the Federer
was not great to them but also
145
00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:28,600
they're murdering people.
Yeah.
146
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,400
It's just down.
People's doors and yeah,
147
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:36,700
Kathleen Kathleen is just so
caught up in her grief about her
148
00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:39,400
brother that she's completely
blind to everything that she's
149
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,200
doing.
It, makes you think that people
150
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,400
in this situation in The Last of
Us universe or this type of
151
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,200
Mythos or anything that if this
is who they actually are and
152
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,400
when you're cut down to your
base person that you're able to
153
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,900
really let it show because it
again choices.
154
00:08:56,900 --> 00:09:00,800
And she's choosing to be this
way Brandon I don't blame her
155
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,300
for trying to place blame on
somebody reasonably for her
156
00:09:05,308 --> 00:09:10,300
brother's death but as we know
from salmon Henry side, it's not
157
00:09:10,300 --> 00:09:12,900
just black and white.
Like he wouldn't he didn't just
158
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:18,100
sell out her brother because he
wanted to because he wanted to
159
00:09:18,100 --> 00:09:21,100
get extra Federal money.
You know, it wasn't about that.
160
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:25,200
So yeah, and that's sort of the
hypocrisy of Kathleen though,
161
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,800
isn't it?
Is that she is trying to hurt
162
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,900
someone who hurt Her brother.
And that person that did.
163
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:35,100
That was trying to save his own
brother, right?
164
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:39,000
They put these siblings to like
head-to-head, it's just so
165
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,200
heartbreaking.
Yeah, and I think part of it is,
166
00:09:41,300 --> 00:09:45,000
right, is in the apocalypse who
you're left with is all you have
167
00:09:45,100 --> 00:09:49,500
the last of us who saying it, at
that point.
168
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,300
And then another point of ten
reads.
169
00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:54,000
Exactly.
The thing is that, that's all
170
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,100
you have.
So when that the last of you are
171
00:09:57,100 --> 00:10:00,400
taken away, you're left with
nothing except Rage.
172
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,900
Yeah, and grief.
Yeah.
173
00:10:01,900 --> 00:10:07,400
And this same, this is a, a few
steps back from where we left
174
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,800
off.
In the last episode.
175
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,200
We see salmon Henry, go into
hiding with the doctor that
176
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,300
Kathleen does end up killing and
we see them go up to the attic
177
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:19,200
and how he painted all those
things on the on the wall and
178
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,500
everything.
Like and it's I think we needed
179
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:25,800
that we needed to see the
urgency, we needed to see the
180
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,200
desperation to get away.
But also some of the
181
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,400
repercussions Russians from the
choices that and remade, we
182
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,200
needed it to fully flesh out
this character a little bit.
183
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,700
It's almost, you know, sometimes
whenever we're so far into a
184
00:10:39,708 --> 00:10:43,300
series and we step back a little
bit, like I'll come on, like, we
185
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:47,900
left off and such like an
intense place, but we needed to
186
00:10:47,900 --> 00:10:50,400
see how they got from point A to
point B to Joel and Ellie.
187
00:10:50,500 --> 00:10:52,400
Absolutely.
And I also think that we needed
188
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,300
that time with them to care
about them.
189
00:10:55,100 --> 00:10:58,500
You know, we really needed to
live with them for a little bit
190
00:10:58,500 --> 00:11:00,400
and what's interesting, right is
that I think they were in the
191
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,700
attic for something like 10 days
but for us, it was what 15
192
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:05,600
minutes.
If even that, but it was enough
193
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,300
time for us to get to know them
and to love them already.
194
00:11:09,300 --> 00:11:14,400
I mean, the, the character of
Sam played by cave on Woodard is
195
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,100
just an incredible character,
and he holds such power even
196
00:11:18,100 --> 00:11:21,000
though he's just this, this
little boy, he's, he's all of
197
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,200
our hope, right?
In that sense.
198
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:28,100
And I mean nothing beats a bag
of crayons, either a Ziploc bag,
199
00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:31,900
great and know.
No also good Big Brother for
200
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:33,900
take it stuff that he knows that
you would love.
201
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,900
Yeah, but we did need that
moment.
202
00:11:35,900 --> 00:11:38,200
We needed to see how much he
cared for Sam.
203
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,900
We needed to see that there was
so much innocence.
204
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:46,300
And, you know, just say I'm not
understanding like I'm hungry.
205
00:11:46,300 --> 00:11:48,800
I know there's one can of food
left but I'm hungry now.
206
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,300
Like why can't we get this
Henry's?
207
00:11:51,300 --> 00:11:52,700
Telling him?
It's hard to get food.
208
00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:55,100
We can't just get food but he's
like, but I'm hungry.
209
00:11:55,100 --> 00:11:59,500
Like I'm 11.
I need food.
210
00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:03,900
But we needed to see that stuff
and then leading to the
211
00:12:03,900 --> 00:12:09,200
confrontation with Ellie.
And Joel we get to see not only
212
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:12,800
Ellie finding somebody that she
can have kinship with but then
213
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,600
Joel seeing almost a reflection
of himself the opposite.
214
00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:19,300
It's like pessimism versus
aggression.
215
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,700
Almost and seeing how those two
balanced each other out, but how
216
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:25,300
much they actually have in
common?
217
00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:29,500
It's really cool thing to see.
And again, as we're moving on
218
00:12:29,500 --> 00:12:34,600
in, These episodes we keep
seeing Joel, you know, notice
219
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,400
these things, right?
So you have to wonder if Joel
220
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,100
weren't with Ellie at this point
in time when they won't.
221
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:44,400
When he wakes up with the gun in
his face, would he have reacted
222
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,000
differently 100%?
Right.
223
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,500
He would have he would have
tried to fight immediately but
224
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,700
Ellie in these instances is
almost I would say like a
225
00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:55,800
conscience but she's almost like
an inner voice for him to be
226
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,900
like okay well let's chill out.
This is what's happening but
227
00:12:58,900 --> 00:13:01,700
then immediately They're able to
find that common ground and
228
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:04,600
they're sharing food with them.
Yeah, because he's able to see
229
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,500
reluctantly.
But yeah, he's able to see that
230
00:13:07,500 --> 00:13:10,600
they're younger.
Mmm, you know, he could probably
231
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,700
tell that they don't necessarily
know what they're doing with the
232
00:13:12,700 --> 00:13:16,700
guns and he kind of is able to
flip that switch, which he
233
00:13:16,700 --> 00:13:18,100
hasn't been able to do in a
while.
234
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:22,900
Yeah yeah they make that plan to
get out of Kansas City which
235
00:13:22,900 --> 00:13:25,800
seems I mean as soon as they
mentioned tunnels I'm just like
236
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,700
I Guys, the undulating pit of
infected.
237
00:13:30,700 --> 00:13:33,000
We saw it.
We know what's coming.
238
00:13:33,300 --> 00:13:35,300
I know Kathleen's like we dead
bolted.
239
00:13:35,300 --> 00:13:36,800
The door.
It's fine, Double-Double
240
00:13:37,100 --> 00:13:38,800
deadbolt.
Yeah, we did the lock on the
241
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,100
handle and then the debt bubble.
Yeah, that'll keep them.
242
00:13:42,300 --> 00:13:46,100
But I do like that this growth
from Joel, not only with Ellie,
243
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:50,900
is also growing to trust people
little bit, even if it's to an
244
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:54,500
ends to a means, he needs his
help to get out of the city.
245
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:56,600
He knows that it's almost
impossible.
246
00:13:56,700 --> 00:14:00,200
All to get out, especially where
they are with everybody on such
247
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,200
high alert looking for salmon,
Henry, they go down into the
248
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,900
tunnel.
This episode, These two episodes
249
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:15,600
and three ebenbolter did Magic.
It is just so beautifully shot.
250
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,600
We see the scene of Henry and
Sam, when they're leaving that
251
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,700
attic.
For the first time, we get that
252
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:26,000
different perspective of Joel
fighting inside of that store.
253
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,000
But just thinking about doing
that and leading it almost doing
254
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,100
it in real time, to lead them
into their paths Crossing.
255
00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:37,500
It's just so cool.
This whole scene with the
256
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:40,700
contrast between, yes, it's a
dark scary tunnel and there's
257
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:44,400
possibly things down here.
Then they get to the mural on
258
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,800
the wall and then when you go in
there it's still depressing.
259
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:52,200
But it does feel hopeful.
You feel like something like it
260
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,100
could have been safe at one
point.
261
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,400
Yeah.
I mean that whole room is a
262
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,600
Really odd juxtaposition of
different things, right?
263
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,800
So it's you're thinking you're
underground.
264
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,100
There's a tunnel.
But yet there's light coming
265
00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:08,300
from the ceiling which you'll
hear about how they did that
266
00:15:08,500 --> 00:15:12,100
when you listen to our episode.
Yeah, we have these drawings on
267
00:15:12,100 --> 00:15:16,000
the wall but they're chip and we
know that the people who were
268
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,600
here aren't there anymore, but
yet, our quartet are there and
269
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,100
they're enjoying the space at
least Elian, Sam, right?
270
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:26,200
That's right.
I don't think that Joel is ever
271
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,800
going to Really enjoy a space
anymore, that's the magic of
272
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,800
Ellie, right?
He gets to sort of see things
273
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,300
through Ellie's eyes and because
Ellie is so young.
274
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:37,600
She's fearless in that way and
she's able to kind of see the
275
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,500
good in situations if you can.
So she takes us up as an
276
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:43,800
opportunity to say let's just
hang out here.
277
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,400
So this this scene in this
particular, whatever you want to
278
00:15:47,408 --> 00:15:53,200
call it bunker and these tunnels
is is one of joy and happiness,
279
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,800
but at the same time, you're
scared.
280
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,400
You don't know if there's
anything on the other side of
281
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,700
Door.
You don't know if anything is
282
00:15:58,700 --> 00:16:02,200
coming for them so you're kind
of just teetering on this Edge
283
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,600
the entire time.
You're like, Yay.
284
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,700
Kick the soccer ball but not too
loudly.
285
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:07,300
Yeah.
The it's it begs.
286
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:10,000
The question of if this was
safe, why is it not safe
287
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,800
anymore?
And let's make it depressing
288
00:16:14,100 --> 00:16:16,200
more leading up to depressing
stuff.
289
00:16:16,300 --> 00:16:20,700
Alright.
If you saw the tiny, your shot
290
00:16:20,700 --> 00:16:24,600
of the drawing on the wall, with
somebody call dish in the game
291
00:16:24,700 --> 00:16:26,400
you actually find out what
happens in that.
292
00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:31,300
At Bunker through notes being
found, you can piece together
293
00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:33,700
the story.
This dude was at Sea became
294
00:16:33,700 --> 00:16:36,600
lonely.
He came into the city to find
295
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,900
companionship found this family
with kids.
296
00:16:39,300 --> 00:16:42,100
They live down there.
It was great, those roles on the
297
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:48,600
wall, they were broken and
unfortunately, by so it's sad,
298
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,500
but it just gives that extra
layer of like what happened.
299
00:16:52,500 --> 00:16:56,400
Like why?
And I'm curious if they'll ever
300
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,400
Tell that story but maybe not
maybe it's just an Easter egg
301
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,700
for people, you know, like a
little a little present they
302
00:17:03,700 --> 00:17:07,000
left there for the people who
played the game and left us
303
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,800
wondering for me someone who
didn't play the game.
304
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,300
Like what did that mean?
You know, they it was such a, it
305
00:17:12,300 --> 00:17:15,300
had its own shot, you know, it
again of him looking at it that
306
00:17:15,300 --> 00:17:18,200
it made us realize, like, up
that means something to someone.
307
00:17:19,099 --> 00:17:24,200
So yeah, this little, this
little bunker is is, or was once
308
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,300
a safe space, it could still be
safe if they Follow those rules
309
00:17:27,300 --> 00:17:30,400
already pre written on the wall
and at this point in time,
310
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,700
you're there there.
It's like, well, what's next?
311
00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:37,000
You know, it's, we have this
moment.
312
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,900
We found another comic book.
Yay, hooray, but they're still
313
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:43,600
in the middle of this Escape.
Yeah, we don't know what's on
314
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,700
the other side.
I love the connection that
315
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:48,500
salmonella have they have it
throughout this entire episode
316
00:17:48,500 --> 00:17:52,000
and Ellie almost needs to have
that connection because she is
317
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,300
still young.
She's 14 and she needs to have
318
00:17:55,300 --> 00:17:58,500
some type of fun.
Some type of Hope and relating
319
00:17:58,500 --> 00:18:00,900
to somebody.
That isn't a middle-aged man.
320
00:18:00,900 --> 00:18:04,900
That's just completely broken
and hardened because it affects
321
00:18:04,900 --> 00:18:06,900
her.
She had a read so many puns, I
322
00:18:06,900 --> 00:18:10,000
did laughs God and it was the
poop pun that really broke him.
323
00:18:10,300 --> 00:18:11,200
Yeah.
Right.
324
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:14,700
And you know, there's also a
thought of saying, who is this
325
00:18:14,700 --> 00:18:17,000
the last time she gets to be a
kid.
326
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:22,100
I would say most definitely
exactly as it was a whole
327
00:18:22,100 --> 00:18:25,400
episode of mostly that.
Yeah, yeah.
328
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,200
So I mean there's So much being
said, as these episodes go on.
329
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,100
It's like, it's like the
crumbling of Joel's facade.
330
00:18:31,100 --> 00:18:33,700
But on the other side of it
it's, it's Ellie.
331
00:18:33,700 --> 00:18:35,700
Putting up her own Waltz, you
know what I mean?
332
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:39,200
Block Ling, losing her own
childhood, it's rough.
333
00:18:39,300 --> 00:18:46,000
Yeah, the I would say, the first
ending to this episode is
334
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,400
complete Mayhem and it's it's
something I don't want to say
335
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,900
the show needed, but it needed
to remind us.
336
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,900
Of what this world is because so
much.
337
00:18:58,100 --> 00:19:00,900
I guess the second episode was
really the last time we had a
338
00:19:00,900 --> 00:19:04,500
threat of infected, and we
haven't seen most of them.
339
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:07,100
They've kind of been there and
Ellie cut one on the head and
340
00:19:07,300 --> 00:19:10,300
stabbed in the head.
But it's been mostly people from
341
00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:12,500
here on out, which is fine,
that's the story.
342
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:16,600
But since it's not the video
game and most of the infected
343
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,600
fights aren't going to happen
from point A to point B because
344
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,400
they don't need entertain us
that way.
345
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:28,300
They need to amp it up in a Big,
big way they get to this
346
00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:31,900
cul-de-sac in this neighborhood
right outside of their area.
347
00:19:31,900 --> 00:19:34,700
They needed to get out of
Kathleen, finds them.
348
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,400
They're mowing down things with
that giant.
349
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Snowplow car plow thing goes
into a building I guess there
350
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,900
was another undulating pit in
that house everywhere in the
351
00:19:47,900 --> 00:19:53,200
hundreds of infected.
It's just such a cool scene to
352
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,800
see that What a, what a my
favorite sort of, poetic things
353
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,400
that happens in this is right in
the last two episodes we've seen
354
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,900
them really rolling through town
in that truck and on the plow
355
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,400
part of it.
It says run.
356
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,300
Yeah.
And then that truck is what ends
357
00:20:08,300 --> 00:20:11,900
up, breaking the pit open and
then they'll have to run your
358
00:20:11,900 --> 00:20:16,700
their lives, but I don't think
many of them make know, the, the
359
00:20:16,700 --> 00:20:22,900
conversation that Kathleen has
with Henry while Joel's up in
360
00:20:22,908 --> 00:20:24,800
the tower, after you took out
the sniper.
361
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,000
The tension in that scene is a
lot because you have Joel, it's
362
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,900
like, okay, take her out, take
her out.
363
00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:33,400
Joe like, you have the shot, you
could do it.
364
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,300
But you have Henry, Ellie and
Sam having to be literally right
365
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:42,700
next to this entire Army.
But her dialogue and what she
366
00:20:42,700 --> 00:20:48,900
says is terrifying and it really
puts into perspective who she is
367
00:20:49,300 --> 00:20:52,600
because he tries to tell her and
almost sympathize with her, like
368
00:20:53,300 --> 00:20:56,300
I did that, you know why I did
this like Hi, I did it to save
369
00:20:56,300 --> 00:20:59,600
my brother who killed your
brother, but like, I did it to
370
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,100
save my brother.
You should understand that.
371
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:07,200
No, she kids die all the time.
What's the problem?
372
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,100
No, I know why you did it?
I'm still going to kill you.
373
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,900
She's deranged yeah she's
completely lost her mind.
374
00:21:15,900 --> 00:21:20,400
Yeah he's like when you can try
and like make that sound.
375
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,400
Okay you've crossed over the
bridge to you know
376
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,200
cuckoo-bananas town and there's
Perry.
377
00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:28,600
Right next to her like go girl,
he's like I got my gun, you tell
378
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,200
you one, I got you, whatever.
You know, what's even worse
379
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,000
about this seeing though, is
that like the one person who
380
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,000
would be truly capable of
escaping?
381
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,000
The situation is nowhere near
anyone.
382
00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:40,700
Yeah, he's already finds already
up.
383
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:44,100
Freaking window.
You're like, no, Joel, don't
384
00:21:44,100 --> 00:21:45,300
leave them.
Why?
385
00:21:45,500 --> 00:21:47,200
Why why?
Why would he leave them?
386
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:51,200
Yeah, it's that Trope.
That it is as old as time
387
00:21:51,700 --> 00:21:54,700
mermaids.
No, no, no, that's beating the
388
00:21:54,700 --> 00:21:58,600
beasts Beauty and the Beast.
It's the separating yes.
389
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,600
Every time their separation it's
like oh shit and they've already
390
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:03,800
been that.
Like I mean it wasn't even for
391
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,500
that long but you knew it was
bad.
392
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:08,300
Yeah yeah.
So as soon as all the all of
393
00:22:08,300 --> 00:22:12,100
these infected just start
pouring out and The most
394
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,500
terrifying and just sick as hell
way.
395
00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:20,300
It gave me flashbacks of World
War Z, but it was just different
396
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:21,600
enough.
Yeah.
397
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,500
So where it seemed any of them
like you could point out one and
398
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:28,100
be like that one's gonna kill
me.
399
00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:30,500
That one's going to kill me you
know, like World War Z felt like
400
00:22:30,500 --> 00:22:33,100
just this giant mass.
Sure of a thing.
401
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,500
This one was just terrifying and
then they amp it up.
402
00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:39,800
We might not have gotten that
bloater in the school seen that
403
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,800
everybody wanted to see before.
Bill and Frank's house.
404
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:47,800
We got him here.
Never a good sign.
405
00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:53,900
When infected / zombies in a
piece of media are so hungry.
406
00:22:53,900 --> 00:22:56,800
That they knock each other down
and crawl on top of each other.
407
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,800
That is never good.
Yeah, when there's that many, I
408
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,800
mean that, I mean, when that
truck went in that hole, where
409
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,100
the, in fact they created the
whole the infected were like, oh
410
00:23:09,300 --> 00:23:14,600
well, well well there we go.
When they start, you know,
411
00:23:14,700 --> 00:23:17,500
Calling their arms.
Like you could tell.
412
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,600
There's just like no more like
hinges or anything, man.
413
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,600
Whoo, yeah, it's so good.
He just came out and he was
414
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,500
like, I'm gonna smash you to
Smithereens and then I'm gonna
415
00:23:26,500 --> 00:23:29,200
rip your head off.
I sure a lot of people have seen
416
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,500
this online that suit passed
half a million dollars.
417
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,900
Well, took over an hour to put
it on this 7-foot tall person
418
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:42,700
and it killed, it was so good.
We're seeing another stage of
419
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:45,400
the infection here.
I I will admit.
420
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,400
Okay, I'm just going to admit,
there's something that I was
421
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:53,200
curious about.
So this whole thing infected and
422
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,200
how it operates is to spread
this infection, not necessarily
423
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:02,800
to kill, but to spread libel
odor in this scene was very
424
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,300
much, just a murder machine
ripping.
425
00:24:05,500 --> 00:24:08,100
I don't think they bit, anybody.
They were just ripping heads
426
00:24:08,100 --> 00:24:10,800
off.
And just going, then the game,
427
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,800
they have like those essential
things.
428
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,800
Those almost like you.
Bulbs that they have on their
429
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,000
body.
They would take them off and
430
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,600
throw them and like a Spore bomb
would go off.
431
00:24:20,100 --> 00:24:23,400
We don't have spores in this
game but like I'm glad they
432
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,100
didn't add that extra thing
because I don't think anybody
433
00:24:26,100 --> 00:24:30,600
really I do like grenade fungus
pustules I don't know if it
434
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,900
would have really translated
they almost show they almost
435
00:24:33,900 --> 00:24:37,700
would have had to have tendrils
or something just because they
436
00:24:37,700 --> 00:24:41,200
took out the Spore element and
had the tendrils added so it
437
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,600
almost would have been too much.
Yeah.
438
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,800
And I mean, in the game, do we
learn how the different kind of
439
00:24:49,100 --> 00:24:53,500
sectors or levels of?
No, no, no.
440
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:54,700
It's just like there's clickers
in.
441
00:24:54,700 --> 00:24:57,000
There's bloaters.
And because it's like, how does
442
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,200
one?
Even how does one even bloat so
443
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,900
much?
I mean, I know what I'm like
444
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:03,400
after Thanksgiving my God.
No.
445
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,900
I mean I think it's just
inferred that the longer that
446
00:25:05,900 --> 00:25:10,100
something is infected, the more
just Lodi or it gets evolves.
447
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:13,900
I don't know if it goes to, you
know, from regular Runner.
448
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:18,300
So I Kurt's a clicker, then to
bloater then to you know, giant
449
00:25:18,300 --> 00:25:22,000
mutation it could but I don't
think anybody's really able to
450
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,900
study these things.
Well, no, I think you know what?
451
00:25:23,900 --> 00:25:25,200
That's probably a good point,
right?
452
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,500
Because if we actually think of
the actual fungus, what it does
453
00:25:28,500 --> 00:25:30,500
to the being that it goes in is
that it first?
454
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:32,600
It controls it.
Then it solidifies it and then
455
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,800
it blooms into something else,
right?
456
00:25:35,100 --> 00:25:37,100
So I think you hit the nail on
the head.
457
00:25:37,100 --> 00:25:41,600
I may be, I think you put the
fungus under the microscope.
458
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,000
You got it this this scene where
Everything Breaks Loose we
459
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,100
talked about with ebenbolter
quite a bit.
460
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,600
Wait to go, go listen to that
interview.
461
00:25:51,900 --> 00:25:57,700
I just love the shot of Joel in
the sniper's nest shooting
462
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,200
while.
Then we also go to them on the
463
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,800
ground while then we also see
through his scope it's just the
464
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:09,800
so many perspectives is so cool
and really just makes the scene.
465
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,800
Yeah I mean the tension is like
dialed up to a million.
466
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,800
Yeah you just like But I did
love that thing.
467
00:26:16,900 --> 00:26:21,100
The Kathleen soldiers just had
to be like, I don't care about
468
00:26:21,100 --> 00:26:23,100
anything else like we're all
gonna die.
469
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,300
I mean and you know what part of
it is that for so long, I think
470
00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:30,100
kind of along the lines of what
you were saying before his us as
471
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:33,000
the viewer I feel like they have
the same thing where they were
472
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,400
so fixated on overthrowing
Federer and now so fixated on
473
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,100
getting Henry and Sam that you
forgot that there was a freaking
474
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:43,800
infected out breakout right,
right.
475
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,200
Right.
And I think it's important for
476
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,200
that to happen.
And if it's used too much, it's
477
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,100
too much.
And if it's not, then when it
478
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:55,100
happens, it's a little more
exactly warming.
479
00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:56,800
You get ripped in half.
Yeah, floater.
480
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,100
Yeah.
So, you know, Perry gets his
481
00:26:59,100 --> 00:27:01,600
head ripped off because he saved
Kathleen and that scene mate,
482
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,000
that's what made me think of
them having almost like a
483
00:27:04,008 --> 00:27:06,800
romantic relationship because I
don't know.
484
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,000
It's just the way they looked at
each.
485
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,800
Other was just more like oh no,
it was the the kissy blue?
486
00:27:11,900 --> 00:27:12,700
Yeah.
No.
487
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,000
His head was already off the
blur.
488
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,400
Has his head on the hand.
Exactly, I love you Kathleen.
489
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,700
Darlene, come.
Give me a kiss and then I'll rip
490
00:27:24,700 --> 00:27:27,500
your head off.
I want a matching set.
491
00:27:29,100 --> 00:27:34,000
We cannot talk about clicker,
girl, we can't get clicker,
492
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,500
clicker, kid, clicker, kicker,
can click OK.
493
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:42,200
Click our girl.
But that when Ellie goes into
494
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:47,600
the van to seek Refuge From the
creators of the freakin show
495
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,200
decided, oh, you know who can
get through the same thing?
496
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,200
LED did a child?
Now, let's not just make it an
497
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,100
infected child.
Let's make it a clicker child,
498
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,000
and we'll get somebody that's a
contortionist to do.
499
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,500
It torsion is clicker kid.
I mean, it's too much.
500
00:28:05,500 --> 00:28:07,500
Okay, here we go.
We're we should really been
501
00:28:07,500 --> 00:28:12,200
making rules to how to survive
this particular outbreak.
502
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,200
Whenever you go through a tiny
window, Close it behind you you
503
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,400
know we can't blame her.
But yes, shall we get up?
504
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,000
No, and that went it Not only
was it creepy because it was
505
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,800
that kid and it came in your
like that but immediately starts
506
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,500
just twisting and tumbling and
it was baby tumble, surprise all
507
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:35,400
over again, baby tumbles
surprise.
508
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,400
Bit quicker, prize.
Pick your clicker clicker,
509
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,400
right?
Before your I clicker, clicker,
510
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,200
clicker, she should get a prize.
Be very surprised.
511
00:28:44,500 --> 00:28:49,300
Imagine just the doll with just
mushroomed head and just and now
512
00:28:49,300 --> 00:28:53,000
for Christmas 2023.
It's this hot selling toy.
513
00:28:53,100 --> 00:28:58,300
I love you baby, clicker that.
Yeah they should add a little
514
00:28:58,300 --> 00:29:02,800
voice box to it. 100%, they have
to but oh my god when she just
515
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:07,200
tumble rolled twisted over the
back seat like you didn't need
516
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,100
To show off.
But I'm glad you did because I
517
00:29:10,100 --> 00:29:14,800
would have been 100% like LA and
be like, nope, get out there.
518
00:29:14,900 --> 00:29:18,800
No II mean.
I would have been, like, Simone
519
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,800
biles like to help.
Child is amazing, I need oh my
520
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,200
gosh. 10/10 10/10, right.
I've been scouring the child.
521
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,500
Good job girl, get it it just
like yeah yes I'd be dead dead
522
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:32,300
for sure.
If you like, I love you.
523
00:29:32,300 --> 00:29:35,600
Stan.
She ate that.
524
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:41,300
No crumbs, no crow.
Yeah, but I would have, I don't
525
00:29:41,300 --> 00:29:42,800
know what I would have done that
situation.
526
00:29:42,900 --> 00:29:45,700
I'm glad she got out.
I'm glad she got out.
527
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:52,600
But yeah we can't say that she
didn't stick The Landing right
528
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,300
on to Kathleen's face to Bumble
the shit out of it.
529
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:02,300
She said I want Mommy tenderized
you know yes you know it's just
530
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:05,300
just so much irony and poetic
justice.
531
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:10,200
Is that one of the last Line she
says, is kids die all the time.
532
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,400
What kills her?
A child?
533
00:30:13,100 --> 00:30:17,500
The kid reminds me of that vine.
Yeah, a child, a child?
534
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:23,700
No, but I mean it's great.
It's what a way to go out, but
535
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,700
this show again, is just a
testament to have introducing us
536
00:30:28,700 --> 00:30:33,400
to characters in such a limited
time and the ending of them just
537
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,600
almost being like, oh, you made
me feel something.
538
00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:40,800
Well, you know, Gosh not, I
wasn't, I wasn't sad that she
539
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,000
died.
I'm just, no, no, I mean that
540
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,300
out there, you know, it's this
as a property is so different.
541
00:30:46,300 --> 00:30:49,600
I feel like than any other they
are all zombie things.
542
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,200
Not this one.
They are all so because usually
543
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,400
when I would, I remember
watching something like The
544
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,200
Walking Dead and being like,
where the zombies, give me the
545
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,200
zombies.
This I'm so invested in the
546
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,800
people on the screen, even if
they're only there for two
547
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,700
episodes.
Yeah, I've seen you forget And
548
00:31:07,700 --> 00:31:12,200
then it explodes and you're
like, yeah, I forgot, I thought,
549
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,800
this is just a family drama.
Oh no, this is a family.
550
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,200
Rip your heart out stomp on it a
few times and then probably kick
551
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,800
you in the face.
It's, how is there going to be a
552
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,500
hopeful Arc at the end?
There's not.
553
00:31:25,300 --> 00:31:31,000
So there's not, okay.
I think we got kid clicker out
554
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,400
of our system.
Comment below.
555
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:37,400
Do you stand kit, clicker?
Oh, I'm anxious.
556
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:39,400
It.
They're only like yeah.
557
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,500
So like no.
Yes, right, break.
558
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,100
Okay, wait, wait.
Let me contortionist kid,
559
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:45,400
clicker.
Kills Kathleen.
560
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,100
How's that for alliteration?
Season Kay's?
561
00:31:50,100 --> 00:31:52,200
Wow, that's all that hard cut.
Yeah.
562
00:31:56,100 --> 00:32:01,800
Okay, no, so yes, know, we have
to, we have to, I like how we've
563
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,500
like opened up our episodes a
little more.
564
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:07,100
We're not going.
So in chronological order, but I
565
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:10,500
would be just.
It just wouldn't sit right with
566
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:13,500
me.
If we didn't talk about Kathleen
567
00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:16,000
dying.
Before we talk about the second
568
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,100
ending of this episode.
Let's just end the episode.
569
00:32:19,100 --> 00:32:21,600
Now don't have to talk about it.
All know what happened.
570
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,600
Yeah, it's sad.
It's done.
571
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,300
Tears, tears, crying Emoji.
Crying Emoji, crying Emoji.
572
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:36,800
So, we get a scene with Ellie
and Sam, and this is one of my
573
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:42,000
favorite scenes in the show.
Just from the performances, we
574
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,400
have Sam who's deaf who has to
speak through his eyes?
575
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,000
I know there's a certain name
for this, my know, it's like a
576
00:32:49,100 --> 00:32:53,100
drawing peel.
Or I got magic pad Magic.
577
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,300
Old sheet.
Comment below.
578
00:32:56,300 --> 00:32:57,900
Do you know what it's called?
So it's got it, we're not
579
00:32:57,900 --> 00:33:01,600
Googling it.
No, but we get this conversation
580
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:06,300
with them, and as they're
communicating through this pad,
581
00:33:06,700 --> 00:33:11,900
we start seeing Sam ask very
pointed or bigger questions than
582
00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:13,900
you would think you would ask
when they're just reading a
583
00:33:13,908 --> 00:33:16,800
comic book.
And one of the questions he
584
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:23,400
asked Kelly, Why are you afraid?
Mmm, and she reveals a little
585
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,200
bit of herself and I think she's
kind of hinting at what's to
586
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,700
come.
But she says, she's afraid of
587
00:33:29,700 --> 00:33:33,200
ending up alone, right?
Which is just for a 14 year old
588
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,700
to say, is a lot, it's
heartbreaking, it's okay, it's
589
00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:40,800
heartbreaking, your face.
The way you what the words
590
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,300
you're saying, and your face are
complete opposites.
591
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,500
You're like smiling and saying
heartbreak.
592
00:33:45,500 --> 00:33:48,000
Well, you know why?
Because I'm being honest and
593
00:33:48,100 --> 00:33:51,100
also, I wanted to try to make
something work with Heartbreak
594
00:33:51,100 --> 00:33:55,500
Hotel, the song.
No, heartbreak, no.
595
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,600
Is we checked into Heartbreak
Hotel?
596
00:33:57,700 --> 00:34:00,700
I know we did and will never
leave where your Forever.
597
00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:02,400
What?
Yeah, as long as we're covering
598
00:34:02,500 --> 00:34:06,500
the last of us, we are for sure.
Jack didn't know free,
599
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:12,100
continental breakfast.
But Sam asks, a question that I
600
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:14,699
think has been brought up in
this type of property before.
601
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:18,900
And he asks, do you think
they're still human Mint or
602
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:20,800
something along those lines.
Like, after they turned you
603
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,000
think the monsters are still
themselves writers.
604
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,900
Yeah, I think that was more
along the lines of what he said,
605
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:30,600
but it's an interesting concept
because why wouldn't a child
606
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:35,000
think that especially a child
that is like posts this.
607
00:34:35,500 --> 00:34:38,400
So he just doesn't I don't know
if he's seen people that have
608
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:42,800
turned or he just knows that
they look like us but they don't
609
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,000
act like us.
So what is making him do that?
610
00:34:46,699 --> 00:34:49,500
I think also he just saw a child
gymnast.
611
00:34:49,500 --> 00:34:53,400
Still be able to Tumble, oh my
God, that's it, clicker.
612
00:34:53,500 --> 00:34:56,400
We're done with kid, clicker.
I'm just saying I mean, I think
613
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,700
honestly the question comes from
a place of fear because he knows
614
00:34:59,700 --> 00:35:02,000
what's happened to him and he's
afraid that he'll be gone
615
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,500
forever.
Also, what a champ, I mean he
616
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:08,200
walked all that way.
He was not crying and he looks
617
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:12,700
relatively fine and he has a
huge bite mark on his leg, which
618
00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:16,200
he does revealed to Ellie and
let's just like a up them.
619
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:21,000
Trying to make us cry or just
awful when Ellie tells him.
620
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,100
My blood is medicine and she
gets that cuts herself.
621
00:35:24,100 --> 00:35:26,700
Tries to rub it on there because
what I mean at that point, what
622
00:35:26,700 --> 00:35:29,000
do you do II?
Don't blame her.
623
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,300
And it's so selfless.
And it's so I want to protect
624
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:34,700
you and I want to help you.
My blood is supposed to be
625
00:35:34,700 --> 00:35:37,400
magic.
It's supposed to do this thing
626
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,200
that they're saying, but is it
going to work?
627
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,200
I also think there's the
innocence of a child, right?
628
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,600
Think about, I don't know if you
break a plate of your Others.
629
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,900
And, oh my God, back together.
And you're like, they won't
630
00:35:48,900 --> 00:35:51,700
notice, it'll be okay this fixed
it, you know?
631
00:35:51,700 --> 00:35:53,800
And has like the glitter glue.
Exactly.
632
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,900
Exactly.
It's just a complete mess and
633
00:35:55,900 --> 00:35:58,700
one of the pieces is missing,
but your kid and you're saying,
634
00:35:58,700 --> 00:36:00,600
No, this will fix it.
This will be okay, will do,
635
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,300
it'll be fine.
And it's sort of along those
636
00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:07,900
lines as well of her feeling
like this is this will this will
637
00:36:07,900 --> 00:36:10,000
be okay, I got it.
I got it, I could do this.
638
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:16,200
Yeah, yeah.
And the fact that They decide to
639
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,500
wear Ellie decides to not tell
Joel and Henry.
640
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:22,900
Like she's really either
believing or hoping that this
641
00:36:22,900 --> 00:36:27,500
blood work and what's just so
sad about this one.
642
00:36:27,500 --> 00:36:32,400
We finally see Sam has turned
into an infected is Ellie was
643
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:37,100
sleeping right there.
He was already turned and by
644
00:36:37,100 --> 00:36:40,900
chance, I guess because he is
deaf, right?
645
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:45,600
Maybe the infected wasn't able
to know No Ellie was there.
646
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Like, you just didn't hear it
because he didn't react until
647
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:52,600
she touched him and it's just,
and it's directly from the game.
648
00:36:52,900 --> 00:36:56,000
Like just seeing that scene
again, these scenes that I know
649
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,600
are happening.
They just hit just as hard, if
650
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,500
not harder because they're
actual people, this tiger.
651
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:05,900
Yeah, I think the source
material is just incredible and
652
00:37:05,900 --> 00:37:09,500
then it's totally completely
amped up to more human levels
653
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:13,100
because humans are acting out
these emoji and it's not the end
654
00:37:13,100 --> 00:37:16,800
game of Being a game of being
like that type of playability.
655
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,300
This time it's more you're going
to feel what this thing has been
656
00:37:20,300 --> 00:37:25,800
saying this entire time and the
act of or the attention that
657
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,400
happens in Joel wanting to go
get the gun right away and just
658
00:37:29,700 --> 00:37:33,800
save Ellie because that's the
rational thing to do Henry,
659
00:37:34,100 --> 00:37:37,200
doesn't act rationally.
Because why would he has his
660
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,400
brother?
It's time to process that when
661
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,600
he does shoot his brother.
And seeing what he did dealing
662
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:47,200
with that mean like imagine your
brother that you did all this
663
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,300
stuff for to save and you
finally think you're safe,
664
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,000
finally think you're save.
Joel has been Joel's going to
665
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,300
take you guys in.
There are going to go with you,
666
00:37:55,300 --> 00:37:57,400
they're going to become of a
quad now.
667
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,100
Yeah.
And the decision that he had to
668
00:38:00,100 --> 00:38:03,300
make in a split second but also
processing that grief and the
669
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:06,100
grief of like oh shit like he
was gone anyway.
670
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:13,700
You know what just there's also
something to be said About Henry
671
00:38:13,700 --> 00:38:16,800
as a person right compared to
Kathleen.
672
00:38:17,300 --> 00:38:22,700
She couldn't see her brother
being sacrificed to save someone
673
00:38:22,700 --> 00:38:23,400
else.
Right?
674
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,000
Right.
And somebody more in need and in
675
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,500
this scene, Henry is actually
able to make that decision.
676
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:34,600
Yeah, he's able to let his
brother go so someone else can
677
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:35,600
survive.
Yeah.
678
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,500
So he was always the opposite
lane.
679
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,700
Yeah, 100% always yeah.
Always always and Janet Lee.
680
00:38:41,700 --> 00:38:44,900
This is the last of us and you
can't stay hopeful for too long
681
00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:50,400
and you can't be happy for too
long and the look The acting
682
00:38:50,700 --> 00:38:54,600
that Lamar Johnson did was is so
phenomenal.
683
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,600
I don't think I've seen them in
anything else could be wrong but
684
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,400
this is definitely the first
starring role that I've seen or
685
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,000
guest starring and supporting.
Is that a better word?
686
00:39:04,100 --> 00:39:05,700
I don't know how it works when
you're only there for two
687
00:39:05,700 --> 00:39:13,500
episodes, but effective.
Yes, but The choice to, so, he
688
00:39:13,500 --> 00:39:16,400
kills himself, but the choice to
not just go to blacker and the
689
00:39:16,408 --> 00:39:18,100
episode there or anything
because they could have.
690
00:39:18,100 --> 00:39:22,300
It could have been a cliffhanger
Staying on Ellie's face.
691
00:39:22,900 --> 00:39:27,900
That is just the extra punch
because Ellie wasn't able to
692
00:39:27,900 --> 00:39:30,900
save Sam.
And now she lost two people,
693
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,100
right?
And I also think again, there's
694
00:39:33,100 --> 00:39:37,000
that conversation of slowly but
surely Ellie's innocence being
695
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,100
taken away from her, so there
she is again.
696
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:43,000
Watching another tragedy right
in front of her eyes.
697
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,100
And we're seeing her reaction to
that, realizing that she's going
698
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:49,700
to be an adult now.
Yeah, after this, there's no
699
00:39:49,700 --> 00:39:51,900
going back.
Right, she just on the last
700
00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:57,700
episode really harm somebody
with a gun in a very violent
701
00:39:57,700 --> 00:39:59,500
way.
And then this one she loses two
702
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:02,600
more people that you really, you
know, wanted to endure and
703
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:07,500
survive with and it didn't work
out and we see her processing
704
00:40:07,500 --> 00:40:11,700
that or really I don't know.
Like she's either at this point
705
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:15,300
or how they're writing her.
She's able to work through these
706
00:40:15,300 --> 00:40:18,100
fairly quickly.
She's the one that kind of just,
707
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:21,500
you know, tires ties your shoes
and Like let's go, which way is
708
00:40:21,500 --> 00:40:23,100
west.
Let's go, but she writes.
709
00:40:23,100 --> 00:40:26,000
I'm sorry on his pad and leaves
it on the graves that they Dig
710
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,800
Dug for them.
And it's just such a she know,
711
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,800
she's guilty like she you know
that she's feels guilty about
712
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:38,200
this and and it's so effective
the writing and just the acting
713
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:42,700
it's phenomenal.
Yeah, I also want to say how how
714
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,300
intense just the sound of a
gunshot is, you know, in these
715
00:40:47,300 --> 00:40:51,100
last two episodes we really
didn't see Something like we saw
716
00:40:51,100 --> 00:40:54,200
people holding guns and shooting
people but we never saw the
717
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,200
receiver of the bullet, feel it,
right?
718
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,500
Even when Kathleen murders the
doctor we don't see it.
719
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:04,900
And in this scene, there's two
just but the sound of a gunshot
720
00:41:04,900 --> 00:41:08,500
is so scary.
And so telling that we don't
721
00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:12,400
want to and we don't need to see
the under Ed other end of it,
722
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,000
you know?
Yeah, the, the effect of the
723
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,400
pool of blood from Sam, instead
of showing his body, which I
724
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,000
think is in weighs more.
Effective.
725
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:25,900
And I think the right choice do
but showing the blood and it cut
726
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:29,300
to it a few times and just
showing growing bigger and
727
00:41:29,300 --> 00:41:30,800
bigger.
Like this is permanent.
728
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,500
This is not like this is real,
this actually happened.
729
00:41:34,300 --> 00:41:38,100
It's just it's so many little
details that are in this type of
730
00:41:38,100 --> 00:41:41,400
scene that just shows the
strength of this show.
731
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:49,400
I very much was hoping that this
was a deviation from the game
732
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,900
because Cuz it they could have.
I'm curious, like I understand
733
00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:55,900
why they did it.
I understand the grand scheme of
734
00:41:55,908 --> 00:42:00,700
things why they did this.
I just like, could there have
735
00:42:00,700 --> 00:42:05,600
been a different way almost, you
know, it almost feels like when
736
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,200
they're taking things from the
game.
737
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,800
They're only going to change it
to make you sadder now.
738
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,800
Do you know, it was like, in the
game with with Bill and Frank,
739
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,300
right?
Frank takes his own life and we
740
00:42:17,300 --> 00:42:18,700
don't even meet him.
We don't know anything.
741
00:42:18,700 --> 00:42:22,300
No, but I'm so.
So he LT still dies in the show,
742
00:42:22,300 --> 00:42:24,900
but we get to see his beautiful
relationship, right?
743
00:42:24,900 --> 00:42:28,100
It even more impactful and made
that blow like a little easier
744
00:42:28,100 --> 00:42:31,100
is like, oh I feel sick but then
like a kiss on the cheek, it's
745
00:42:31,100 --> 00:42:35,000
like, okay, but I also think it
makes it harder as the audience
746
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,100
member to, to watch the person
died, right?
747
00:42:38,100 --> 00:42:42,000
So, even in these two episodes,
we got to really know Henry and
748
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,000
salmon really like them and then
they were gone.
749
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,700
Yeah.
So compared to the game because
750
00:42:47,700 --> 00:42:50,300
we get more time with them.
They change it in the future.
751
00:42:50,300 --> 00:42:52,500
Fact that they actually give us
more information.
752
00:42:52,500 --> 00:42:54,700
Yeah.
It makes the emotional punch
753
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,700
that much more of a knockout.
Yeah it did.
754
00:42:57,700 --> 00:43:00,900
And that's that's what I mean.
It's just such a gut punch.
755
00:43:00,900 --> 00:43:04,200
It's going to be a word that's
used for the show, but I think
756
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:08,200
symbolizes really what the
impact that this story could
757
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:13,400
have, I needed to take a warm
down absent salt after this
758
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:14,800
episode.
He really did.
759
00:43:14,900 --> 00:43:17,800
And then I came out and watch
You've Got Mail.
760
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,200
So yeah.
Meg, Ryan and Tom Hanks, because
761
00:43:20,300 --> 00:43:23,300
I just needed something silly to
watch.
762
00:43:23,900 --> 00:43:26,500
I was so emotionally disturbed
and upset.
763
00:43:26,500 --> 00:43:29,800
Yeah this, I mean episode for
was really like a breather,
764
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:31,900
almost any between three and
five.
765
00:43:32,300 --> 00:43:34,100
It was a bridge between
tragedies.
766
00:43:34,100 --> 00:43:36,300
Yeah.
And I have a feeling that that's
767
00:43:36,300 --> 00:43:38,600
going to be the the same
pattern.
768
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,000
Next episode is.
We know that he gets to his
769
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,300
brother, Tommy snow, there's
going to be snow, but then
770
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:49,200
episode 7, got punched, episode
8, maybe a bridge episode 9 got
771
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,900
punch.
It's a trend, it's a trend.
772
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,200
Yeah.
The data analysis.
773
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,900
I mean it's like this is fact
that it's gonna happen.
774
00:43:56,900 --> 00:44:01,200
I just want I I just want one
more nice episode.
775
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,600
Can we go see her again or next
episode we'll see what happens
776
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,700
with Tommy.
Yeah, I mean it got announce
777
00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:11,900
that there is season to this
conversation has come up with
778
00:44:11,900 --> 00:44:17,400
Derek and I quite a bit.
I-i'm curious where they go,
779
00:44:17,500 --> 00:44:21,400
like are we they're wrapping up
before the full first game and
780
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:25,700
this one, which is incredible.
But are we getting the second
781
00:44:25,700 --> 00:44:27,200
game right away?
Are we getting the same
782
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,900
characters playing everybody?
Because if they go straight to
783
00:44:29,900 --> 00:44:34,200
that second one at least older
I'm just really excited for the
784
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:38,500
show because I feel like after
this season with the success and
785
00:44:38,500 --> 00:44:41,400
everything they can really go
anyway.
786
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,400
Yeah.
Maybe what they'll give us
787
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:49,300
actually.
Is happiness, is the maybe
788
00:44:49,300 --> 00:44:52,800
season two of the show is giving
us the bridge between game one
789
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,600
and game two.
Maybe maybe they might have to
790
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:59,000
write that whole story for us to
finally get there.
791
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:05,000
I wonder if the decisions for
what these creators and people
792
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,800
that are working, the show seem
very intentional and I'm curious
793
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:15,900
if Neil druckmann would want us
to know, No that in between like
794
00:45:15,900 --> 00:45:21,200
would what happens in to be as
impactful if we have to wait as
795
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,200
long?
I know that I believe it was one
796
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,700
of the creators of the show said
that season or part two of the
797
00:45:27,707 --> 00:45:31,500
game would be multiple Seasons,
so they couldn't tell the full
798
00:45:31,500 --> 00:45:35,100
story of two and they're so we
very much just might get to, and
799
00:45:35,100 --> 00:45:40,200
then part or season season 2.
Part, 2 of part. 2 of Last of Us
800
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:41,800
would be the third.
I got it.
801
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:45,800
So I'm very Needless to say, all
this, I'm just trying to say is
802
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,100
I'm very excited for the show.
I don't think that there's been
803
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:51,500
an IP that I've known prior to a
getting a screen adaptation.
804
00:45:51,500 --> 00:45:55,500
That I've been this super
excited for or like they could
805
00:45:55,500 --> 00:45:57,400
do anything.
Like I just, I know what's
806
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,200
happening, but I don't and it's
just exciting.
807
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,700
History of the bloater is all
next season.
808
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,500
We just, we live.
We live with an underground
809
00:46:06,500 --> 00:46:08,300
group of bloaters.
No.
810
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,600
Oh my God, imagine there's like
a spin-off and it's like kid
811
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:15,200
clicker, but they make it like
Sitcom like when they did the,
812
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:19,400
the Geico caveman or whatever,
but Daddy bloater, exactly mommy
813
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,100
clicker.
Yeah, get quicker.
814
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,300
Can a bloater in a clicker, make
it work.
815
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:27,600
Welcome on bloaty clicks.
It's just a, what if season last
816
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:31,300
of, actually, totally.
And so next episode, we get
817
00:46:32,100 --> 00:46:35,600
Tommy, we get some brotherly
bonding.
818
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:39,500
Hopefully time we get snow.
Do you think we'll get like a
819
00:46:39,508 --> 00:46:43,400
little section of what?
Tom, how Tommy?
820
00:46:43,500 --> 00:46:45,900
Got there, 100% right now, it's
gonna be our flashback.
821
00:46:45,900 --> 00:46:50,200
Yeah, they might introduce us to
them prior to Joel and Ellie
822
00:46:50,500 --> 00:46:51,900
getting to the point that they
are now.
823
00:46:51,900 --> 00:46:55,700
I could see that happening, but
hey, I've been wrong before.
824
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,500
Not often.
Oh gosh.
825
00:46:57,500 --> 00:47:01,500
The Rock will let you have that
for now.
826
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,800
I just, I don't know.
I just can't, I don't know if I
827
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,400
could take this anymore.
It's just too emotional.
828
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:13,400
Yeah, so sorry.
Not covering season 2 will see
829
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:17,300
Evan, you want to come back and
we're waiting for you, but yeah.
830
00:47:17,300 --> 00:47:20,500
So that's it, you know, ten out
of ten.
831
00:47:20,500 --> 00:47:23,000
I feel like this so far.
There's been no episodes that
832
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,800
could do no wrong in this show.
It's just still so strong
833
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,800
halfway through season one.
Absolutely.
834
00:47:29,900 --> 00:47:34,000
I mean and you know I've said
before I'm not really sort of a
835
00:47:34,008 --> 00:47:39,000
drama guy when our dramas are
not my jam but I have to keep
836
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,700
coming back to it.
It's just too too good.
837
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,000
Yeah there's just two and it's
like sad because it's like I
838
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,500
want to keep coming back to it,
but I know it's going to be
839
00:47:48,500 --> 00:47:51,000
terrible.
Well, we don't know I'm signing
840
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,000
myself, we might tears.
We're gonna get.
841
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,900
Maybe we'll get more episodes
like episode 3.
842
00:47:54,900 --> 00:47:58,300
It was tragic, but it was just
so beautiful, so beautiful
843
00:47:58,700 --> 00:48:01,100
i-i'm.
So okay, we gotta end it here
844
00:48:01,100 --> 00:48:03,200
because we're just going to keep
talking about episodes already
845
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,800
talked about, but again, I can't
stress enough.
846
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,200
Listen to our ebenbolter
interview that we have, because
847
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:14,100
he tells us some interesting
things about episode 3, And some
848
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:16,300
of the feathery things that
happen.
849
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:22,800
Yeah.
But next week episode 6, right?
850
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,000

Okay, well, you know, such a
menacing named Kathleen who
79
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:54,100
would have thought the villain
named Kathleen.
80
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,200
Yeah.
And you know what it out, you
81
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,200

00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
sweet Cadence.
Oh yeah, yeah.

It's like, whoa.
Whoa, your informants inform.
86
00:05:09,700 --> 00:05:14,900
I'm like, okay my gosh, just
like the present she has.
87
00:05:14,900 --> 00:05:18,000
And the way that we all sort of
like kowtow to her, you know,
88
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,100
they're there is a piece of me,
that wishes that we did get to
89
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:24,200
see a little bit of how she came
to power there.
90
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:26,300
No, thank you.
I want to know.
91
00:05:26,300 --> 00:05:28,100
No.
I mean the Glimpse that we get
92
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:33,000
of her prior To the cul-de-sac
scene and we see how she treated
93
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,900
the informant / Cora, coopera,
collaborators collaborators, I
94
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:39,500
was Robert Raiders.
Yeah, it's good.
95
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,700
Crab was Bar and Grill.
Delicious, mmm.
96
00:05:44,100 --> 00:05:48,600
Well, but we saw how she dealt
with those people and how she
97
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:50,800
is.
Just for violence, gives no
98
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,000
fucks.
Straight ahead and she
99
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,700
manipulates do 100% bait and
switch like nobody's business.
100
00:05:57,700 --> 00:05:59,700
Yeah, I don't think I can handle
more.
101
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:02,700
I liked her but I'm glad she's
gone.
102
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,800
No, totally agree.
No, I don't want to ever see.
103
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,500
I mean, we won't I don't ever
want to see her dealing with
104
00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:12,800
with Joel and Ellie again, but I
want to, I want the little bit
105
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,700
of a prequel to that that qz.
And, you know, was it really her
106
00:06:17,700 --> 00:06:19,200
role?
Or was it really her brother's
107
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,600
role?
And then she just happened to
108
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,800
take over when he died.
Yeah. 100% was her brother's
109
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,200
role and then she had to take
the reins which you didn't have
110
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,700
to should have had an election.
Yeah.
111
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,100
Yeah, democracy baby.
Well, I mean, I also am curious
112
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:37,200
because so much of the Romantic
relationships in The Last of Us
113
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,300
aside from some of the ones in
part to aren't explicitly said
114
00:06:42,300 --> 00:06:47,100
or shown, and I'm curious if
Kathleen and Perry there are
115
00:06:47,100 --> 00:06:49,800
some moments in, this one's
particularly in the cul-de-sac,
116
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:55,200
but he's just so willing to, I
don't know, just appease her and
117
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,600
do what she asked that it's a
little more than just a right
118
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,900
hand henchmen.
Situation.
119
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,600
And I'm curious if there is some
Romanticism happening there.
120
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,200
Yeah, his partner her, or it's
mutual, I don't know.
121
00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:12,800
You know, or maybe maybe it was
something that Harry was her
122
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,200
brother's right hand person
lover.
123
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:20,900
Oh, you know, I'm always pulling
for that lgbtqia+ storyline
124
00:07:20,900 --> 00:07:23,200
baby.
Yeah, something like that.
125
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,100
Or just best friends.
So, he feels like it's his duty
126
00:07:25,100 --> 00:07:27,400
to stick to Kathleen, man.
Best friends.
127
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,200
I don't know if I'd go that far,
like, for my Best friend to like
128
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,600
kill a group of people.
Yeah, I don't know.
129
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,600
It's, it's not good.
Whatever it is, you know, this
130
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,500
whole, this whole sort of
storyline really gives me Hunger
131
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:42,600
Games Vibes.
You know, the last movie when
132
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,000
coins, like I know, it will do,
it's like, well, kind of meets
133
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000
the same fate, she does, you
will see her and Ballad of song
134
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,100
birds and snakes.
This she's gonna be in that one.
135
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,100
But so Kathleen and Perry and
the terrible, I mean, there's a
136
00:07:57,100 --> 00:07:59,700
line that I believe cred
pragmas.
137
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:04,700
I said and it's also just said
throughout history that usually
138
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,300
the people that overthrow the
oppressors are just as bad as
139
00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:11,700
the people that were oppressing.
Them typically throughout
140
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:13,800
history and this is just a case
in point.
141
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,500
Yeah, it's all that power,
right?
142
00:08:15,500 --> 00:08:18,300
It's like, even though they
wanted that freedom, what do
143
00:08:18,300 --> 00:08:20,500
they end up doing freedom to do
what I mean?
144
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:25,300
I mean, I granted the Federer
was not great to them but also
145
00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:28,600
they're murdering people.
Yeah.
146
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,400
It's just down.
People's doors and yeah,
147
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:36,700
Kathleen Kathleen is just so
caught up in her grief about her
148
00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:39,400
brother that she's completely
blind to everything that she's
149
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,200
doing.
It, makes you think that people
150
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,400
in this situation in The Last of
Us universe or this type of
151
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,200
Mythos or anything that if this
is who they actually are and
152
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,400
when you're cut down to your
base person that you're able to
153
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,900
really let it show because it
again choices.
154
00:08:56,900 --> 00:09:00,800
And she's choosing to be this
way Brandon I don't blame her
155
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,300
for trying to place blame on
somebody reasonably for her
156
00:09:05,308 --> 00:09:10,300
brother's death but as we know
from salmon Henry side, it's not
157
00:09:10,300 --> 00:09:12,900
just black and white.
Like he wouldn't he didn't just
158
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:18,100
sell out her brother because he
wanted to because he wanted to
159
00:09:18,100 --> 00:09:21,100
get extra Federal money.
You know, it wasn't about that.
160
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:25,200
So yeah, and that's sort of the
hypocrisy of Kathleen though,
161
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,800
isn't it?
Is that she is trying to hurt
162
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,900
someone who hurt Her brother.
And that person that did.
163
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:35,100
That was trying to save his own
brother, right?
164
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:39,000
They put these siblings to like
head-to-head, it's just so
165
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,200
heartbreaking.
Yeah, and I think part of it is,
166
00:09:41,300 --> 00:09:45,000
right, is in the apocalypse who
you're left with is all you have
167
00:09:45,100 --> 00:09:49,500
the last of us who saying it, at
that point.
168
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,300
And then another point of ten
reads.
169
00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:54,000
Exactly.
The thing is that, that's all
170
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,100
you have.
So when that the last of you are
171
00:09:57,100 --> 00:10:00,400
taken away, you're left with
nothing except Rage.
172
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,900
Yeah, and grief.
Yeah.
173
00:10:01,900 --> 00:10:07,400
And this same, this is a, a few
steps back from where we left
174
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,800
off.
In the last episode.
175
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,200
We see salmon Henry, go into
hiding with the doctor that
176
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,300
Kathleen does end up killing and
we see them go up to the attic
177
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:19,200
and how he painted all those
things on the on the wall and
178
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,500
everything.
Like and it's I think we needed
179
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:25,800
that we needed to see the
urgency, we needed to see the
180
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,200
desperation to get away.
But also some of the
181
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,400
repercussions Russians from the
choices that and remade, we
182
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,200
needed it to fully flesh out
this character a little bit.
183
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,700
It's almost, you know, sometimes
whenever we're so far into a
184
00:10:39,708 --> 00:10:43,300
series and we step back a little
bit, like I'll come on, like, we
185
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:47,900
left off and such like an
intense place, but we needed to
186
00:10:47,900 --> 00:10:50,400
see how they got from point A to
point B to Joel and Ellie.
187
00:10:50,500 --> 00:10:52,400
Absolutely.
And I also think that we needed
188
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,300
that time with them to care
about them.
189
00:10:55,100 --> 00:10:58,500
You know, we really needed to
live with them for a little bit
190
00:10:58,500 --> 00:11:00,400
and what's interesting, right is
that I think they were in the
191
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,700
attic for something like 10 days
but for us, it was what 15
192
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:05,600
minutes.
If even that, but it was enough
193
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,300
time for us to get to know them
and to love them already.
194
00:11:09,300 --> 00:11:14,400
I mean, the, the character of
Sam played by cave on Woodard is
195
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,100
just an incredible character,
and he holds such power even
196
00:11:18,100 --> 00:11:21,000
though he's just this, this
little boy, he's, he's all of
197
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,200
our hope, right?
In that sense.
198
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:28,100
And I mean nothing beats a bag
of crayons, either a Ziploc bag,
199
00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:31,900
great and know.
No also good Big Brother for
200
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:33,900
take it stuff that he knows that
you would love.
201
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,900
Yeah, but we did need that
moment.
202
00:11:35,900 --> 00:11:38,200
We needed to see how much he
cared for Sam.
203
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,900
We needed to see that there was
so much innocence.
204
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:46,300
And, you know, just say I'm not
understanding like I'm hungry.
205
00:11:46,300 --> 00:11:48,800
I know there's one can of food
left but I'm hungry now.
206
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,300
Like why can't we get this
Henry's?
207
00:11:51,300 --> 00:11:52,700
Telling him?
It's hard to get food.
208
00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:55,100
We can't just get food but he's
like, but I'm hungry.
209
00:11:55,100 --> 00:11:59,500
Like I'm 11.
I need food.
210
00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:03,900
But we needed to see that stuff
and then leading to the
211
00:12:03,900 --> 00:12:09,200
confrontation with Ellie.
And Joel we get to see not only
212
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:12,800
Ellie finding somebody that she
can have kinship with but then
213
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,600
Joel seeing almost a reflection
of himself the opposite.
214
00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:19,300
It's like pessimism versus
aggression.
215
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,700
Almost and seeing how those two
balanced each other out, but how
216
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:25,300
much they actually have in
common?
217
00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:29,500
It's really cool thing to see.
And again, as we're moving on
218
00:12:29,500 --> 00:12:34,600
in, These episodes we keep
seeing Joel, you know, notice
219
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,400
these things, right?
So you have to wonder if Joel
220
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,100
weren't with Ellie at this point
in time when they won't.
221
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:44,400
When he wakes up with the gun in
his face, would he have reacted
222
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,000
differently 100%?
Right.
223
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,500
He would have he would have
tried to fight immediately but
224
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,700
Ellie in these instances is
almost I would say like a
225
00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:55,800
conscience but she's almost like
an inner voice for him to be
226
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,900
like okay well let's chill out.
This is what's happening but
227
00:12:58,900 --> 00:13:01,700
then immediately They're able to
find that common ground and
228
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:04,600
they're sharing food with them.
Yeah, because he's able to see
229
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,500
reluctantly.
But yeah, he's able to see that
230
00:13:07,500 --> 00:13:10,600
they're younger.
Mmm, you know, he could probably
231
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,700
tell that they don't necessarily
know what they're doing with the
232
00:13:12,700 --> 00:13:16,700
guns and he kind of is able to
flip that switch, which he
233
00:13:16,700 --> 00:13:18,100
hasn't been able to do in a
while.
234
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:22,900
Yeah yeah they make that plan to
get out of Kansas City which
235
00:13:22,900 --> 00:13:25,800
seems I mean as soon as they
mentioned tunnels I'm just like
236
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,700
I Guys, the undulating pit of
infected.
237
00:13:30,700 --> 00:13:33,000
We saw it.
We know what's coming.
238
00:13:33,300 --> 00:13:35,300
I know Kathleen's like we dead
bolted.
239
00:13:35,300 --> 00:13:36,800
The door.
It's fine, Double-Double
240
00:13:37,100 --> 00:13:38,800
deadbolt.
Yeah, we did the lock on the
241
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,100
handle and then the debt bubble.
Yeah, that'll keep them.
242
00:13:42,300 --> 00:13:46,100
But I do like that this growth
from Joel, not only with Ellie,
243
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:50,900
is also growing to trust people
little bit, even if it's to an
244
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:54,500
ends to a means, he needs his
help to get out of the city.
245
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:56,600
He knows that it's almost
impossible.
246
00:13:56,700 --> 00:14:00,200
All to get out, especially where
they are with everybody on such
247
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,200
high alert looking for salmon,
Henry, they go down into the
248
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,900
tunnel.
This episode, These two episodes
249
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:15,600
and three ebenbolter did Magic.
It is just so beautifully shot.
250
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,600
We see the scene of Henry and
Sam, when they're leaving that
251
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,700
attic.
For the first time, we get that
252
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:26,000
different perspective of Joel
fighting inside of that store.
253
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,000
But just thinking about doing
that and leading it almost doing
254
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,100
it in real time, to lead them
into their paths Crossing.
255
00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:37,500
It's just so cool.
This whole scene with the
256
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:40,700
contrast between, yes, it's a
dark scary tunnel and there's
257
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:44,400
possibly things down here.
Then they get to the mural on
258
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,800
the wall and then when you go in
there it's still depressing.
259
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:52,200
But it does feel hopeful.
You feel like something like it
260
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,100
could have been safe at one
point.
261
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,400
Yeah.
I mean that whole room is a
262
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,600
Really odd juxtaposition of
different things, right?
263
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,800
So it's you're thinking you're
underground.
264
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,100
There's a tunnel.
But yet there's light coming
265
00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:08,300
from the ceiling which you'll
hear about how they did that
266
00:15:08,500 --> 00:15:12,100
when you listen to our episode.
Yeah, we have these drawings on
267
00:15:12,100 --> 00:15:16,000
the wall but they're chip and we
know that the people who were
268
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,600
here aren't there anymore, but
yet, our quartet are there and
269
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,100
they're enjoying the space at
least Elian, Sam, right?
270
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:26,200
That's right.
I don't think that Joel is ever
271
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,800
going to Really enjoy a space
anymore, that's the magic of
272
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,800
Ellie, right?
He gets to sort of see things
273
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,300
through Ellie's eyes and because
Ellie is so young.
274
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:37,600
She's fearless in that way and
she's able to kind of see the
275
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,500
good in situations if you can.
So she takes us up as an
276
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:43,800
opportunity to say let's just
hang out here.
277
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,400
So this this scene in this
particular, whatever you want to
278
00:15:47,408 --> 00:15:53,200
call it bunker and these tunnels
is is one of joy and happiness,
279
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,800
but at the same time, you're
scared.
280
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,400
You don't know if there's
anything on the other side of
281
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,700
Door.
You don't know if anything is
282
00:15:58,700 --> 00:16:02,200
coming for them so you're kind
of just teetering on this Edge
283
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,600
the entire time.
You're like, Yay.
284
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,700
Kick the soccer ball but not too
loudly.
285
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:07,300
Yeah.
The it's it begs.
286
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:10,000
The question of if this was
safe, why is it not safe
287
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,800
anymore?
And let's make it depressing
288
00:16:14,100 --> 00:16:16,200
more leading up to depressing
stuff.
289
00:16:16,300 --> 00:16:20,700
Alright.
If you saw the tiny, your shot
290
00:16:20,700 --> 00:16:24,600
of the drawing on the wall, with
somebody call dish in the game
291
00:16:24,700 --> 00:16:26,400
you actually find out what
happens in that.
292
00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:31,300
At Bunker through notes being
found, you can piece together
293
00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:33,700
the story.
This dude was at Sea became
294
00:16:33,700 --> 00:16:36,600
lonely.
He came into the city to find
295
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,900
companionship found this family
with kids.
296
00:16:39,300 --> 00:16:42,100
They live down there.
It was great, those roles on the
297
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:48,600
wall, they were broken and
unfortunately, by so it's sad,
298
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,500
but it just gives that extra
layer of like what happened.
299
00:16:52,500 --> 00:16:56,400
Like why?
And I'm curious if they'll ever
300
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,400
Tell that story but maybe not
maybe it's just an Easter egg
301
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,700
for people, you know, like a
little a little present they
302
00:17:03,700 --> 00:17:07,000
left there for the people who
played the game and left us
303
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,800
wondering for me someone who
didn't play the game.
304
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,300
Like what did that mean?
You know, they it was such a, it
305
00:17:12,300 --> 00:17:15,300
had its own shot, you know, it
again of him looking at it that
306
00:17:15,300 --> 00:17:18,200
it made us realize, like, up
that means something to someone.
307
00:17:19,099 --> 00:17:24,200
So yeah, this little, this
little bunker is is, or was once
308
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,300
a safe space, it could still be
safe if they Follow those rules
309
00:17:27,300 --> 00:17:30,400
already pre written on the wall
and at this point in time,
310
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,700
you're there there.
It's like, well, what's next?
311
00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:37,000
You know, it's, we have this
moment.
312
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,900
We found another comic book.
Yay, hooray, but they're still
313
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:43,600
in the middle of this Escape.
Yeah, we don't know what's on
314
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,700
the other side.
I love the connection that
315
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:48,500
salmonella have they have it
throughout this entire episode
316
00:17:48,500 --> 00:17:52,000
and Ellie almost needs to have
that connection because she is
317
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,300
still young.
She's 14 and she needs to have
318
00:17:55,300 --> 00:17:58,500
some type of fun.
Some type of Hope and relating
319
00:17:58,500 --> 00:18:00,900
to somebody.
That isn't a middle-aged man.
320
00:18:00,900 --> 00:18:04,900
That's just completely broken
and hardened because it affects
321
00:18:04,900 --> 00:18:06,900
her.
She had a read so many puns, I
322
00:18:06,900 --> 00:18:10,000
did laughs God and it was the
poop pun that really broke him.
323
00:18:10,300 --> 00:18:11,200
Yeah.
Right.
324
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:14,700
And you know, there's also a
thought of saying, who is this
325
00:18:14,700 --> 00:18:17,000
the last time she gets to be a
kid.
326
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:22,100
I would say most definitely
exactly as it was a whole
327
00:18:22,100 --> 00:18:25,400
episode of mostly that.
Yeah, yeah.
328
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,200
So I mean there's So much being
said, as these episodes go on.
329
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,100
It's like, it's like the
crumbling of Joel's facade.
330
00:18:31,100 --> 00:18:33,700
But on the other side of it
it's, it's Ellie.
331
00:18:33,700 --> 00:18:35,700
Putting up her own Waltz, you
know what I mean?
332
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:39,200
Block Ling, losing her own
childhood, it's rough.
333
00:18:39,300 --> 00:18:46,000
Yeah, the I would say, the first
ending to this episode is
334
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,400
complete Mayhem and it's it's
something I don't want to say
335
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,900
the show needed, but it needed
to remind us.
336
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,900
Of what this world is because so
much.
337
00:18:58,100 --> 00:19:00,900
I guess the second episode was
really the last time we had a
338
00:19:00,900 --> 00:19:04,500
threat of infected, and we
haven't seen most of them.
339
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:07,100
They've kind of been there and
Ellie cut one on the head and
340
00:19:07,300 --> 00:19:10,300
stabbed in the head.
But it's been mostly people from
341
00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:12,500
here on out, which is fine,
that's the story.
342
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:16,600
But since it's not the video
game and most of the infected
343
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,600
fights aren't going to happen
from point A to point B because
344
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,400
they don't need entertain us
that way.
345
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:28,300
They need to amp it up in a Big,
big way they get to this
346
00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:31,900
cul-de-sac in this neighborhood
right outside of their area.
347
00:19:31,900 --> 00:19:34,700
They needed to get out of
Kathleen, finds them.
348
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,400
They're mowing down things with
that giant.
349
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Snowplow car plow thing goes
into a building I guess there
350
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,900
was another undulating pit in
that house everywhere in the
351
00:19:47,900 --> 00:19:53,200
hundreds of infected.
It's just such a cool scene to
352
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,800
see that What a, what a my
favorite sort of, poetic things
353
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,400
that happens in this is right in
the last two episodes we've seen
354
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,900
them really rolling through town
in that truck and on the plow
355
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,400
part of it.
It says run.
356
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,300
Yeah.
And then that truck is what ends
357
00:20:08,300 --> 00:20:11,900
up, breaking the pit open and
then they'll have to run your
358
00:20:11,900 --> 00:20:16,700
their lives, but I don't think
many of them make know, the, the
359
00:20:16,700 --> 00:20:22,900
conversation that Kathleen has
with Henry while Joel's up in
360
00:20:22,908 --> 00:20:24,800
the tower, after you took out
the sniper.
361
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,000
The tension in that scene is a
lot because you have Joel, it's
362
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,900
like, okay, take her out, take
her out.
363
00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:33,400
Joe like, you have the shot, you
could do it.
364
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,300
But you have Henry, Ellie and
Sam having to be literally right
365
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:42,700
next to this entire Army.
But her dialogue and what she
366
00:20:42,700 --> 00:20:48,900
says is terrifying and it really
puts into perspective who she is
367
00:20:49,300 --> 00:20:52,600
because he tries to tell her and
almost sympathize with her, like
368
00:20:53,300 --> 00:20:56,300
I did that, you know why I did
this like Hi, I did it to save
369
00:20:56,300 --> 00:20:59,600
my brother who killed your
brother, but like, I did it to
370
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,100
save my brother.
You should understand that.
371
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:07,200
No, she kids die all the time.
What's the problem?
372
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,100
No, I know why you did it?
I'm still going to kill you.
373
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,900
She's deranged yeah she's
completely lost her mind.
374
00:21:15,900 --> 00:21:20,400
Yeah he's like when you can try
and like make that sound.
375
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,400
Okay you've crossed over the
bridge to you know
376
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,200
cuckoo-bananas town and there's
Perry.
377
00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:28,600
Right next to her like go girl,
he's like I got my gun, you tell
378
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,200
you one, I got you, whatever.
You know, what's even worse
379
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,000
about this seeing though, is
that like the one person who
380
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,000
would be truly capable of
escaping?
381
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,000
The situation is nowhere near
anyone.
382
00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:40,700
Yeah, he's already finds already
up.
383
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:44,100
Freaking window.
You're like, no, Joel, don't
384
00:21:44,100 --> 00:21:45,300
leave them.
Why?
385
00:21:45,500 --> 00:21:47,200
Why why?
Why would he leave them?
386
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:51,200
Yeah, it's that Trope.
That it is as old as time
387
00:21:51,700 --> 00:21:54,700
mermaids.
No, no, no, that's beating the
388
00:21:54,700 --> 00:21:58,600
beasts Beauty and the Beast.
It's the separating yes.
389
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,600
Every time their separation it's
like oh shit and they've already
390
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:03,800
been that.
Like I mean it wasn't even for
391
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,500
that long but you knew it was
bad.
392
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:08,300
Yeah yeah.
So as soon as all the all of
393
00:22:08,300 --> 00:22:12,100
these infected just start
pouring out and The most
394
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,500
terrifying and just sick as hell
way.
395
00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:20,300
It gave me flashbacks of World
War Z, but it was just different
396
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:21,600
enough.
Yeah.
397
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,500
So where it seemed any of them
like you could point out one and
398
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:28,100
be like that one's gonna kill
me.
399
00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:30,500
That one's going to kill me you
know, like World War Z felt like
400
00:22:30,500 --> 00:22:33,100
just this giant mass.
Sure of a thing.
401
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,500
This one was just terrifying and
then they amp it up.
402
00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:39,800
We might not have gotten that
bloater in the school seen that
403
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,800
everybody wanted to see before.
Bill and Frank's house.
404
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:47,800
We got him here.
Never a good sign.
405
00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:53,900
When infected / zombies in a
piece of media are so hungry.
406
00:22:53,900 --> 00:22:56,800
That they knock each other down
and crawl on top of each other.
407
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,800
That is never good.
Yeah, when there's that many, I
408
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,800
mean that, I mean, when that
truck went in that hole, where
409
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,100
the, in fact they created the
whole the infected were like, oh
410
00:23:09,300 --> 00:23:14,600
well, well well there we go.
When they start, you know,
411
00:23:14,700 --> 00:23:17,500
Calling their arms.
Like you could tell.
412
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,600
There's just like no more like
hinges or anything, man.
413
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,600
Whoo, yeah, it's so good.
He just came out and he was
414
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,500
like, I'm gonna smash you to
Smithereens and then I'm gonna
415
00:23:26,500 --> 00:23:29,200
rip your head off.
I sure a lot of people have seen
416
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,500
this online that suit passed
half a million dollars.
417
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,900
Well, took over an hour to put
it on this 7-foot tall person
418
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:42,700
and it killed, it was so good.
We're seeing another stage of
419
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:45,400
the infection here.
I I will admit.
420
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,400
Okay, I'm just going to admit,
there's something that I was
421
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:53,200
curious about.
So this whole thing infected and
422
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,200
how it operates is to spread
this infection, not necessarily
423
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:02,800
to kill, but to spread libel
odor in this scene was very
424
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,300
much, just a murder machine
ripping.
425
00:24:05,500 --> 00:24:08,100
I don't think they bit, anybody.
They were just ripping heads
426
00:24:08,100 --> 00:24:10,800
off.
And just going, then the game,
427
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,800
they have like those essential
things.
428
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,800
Those almost like you.
Bulbs that they have on their
429
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,000
body.
They would take them off and
430
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,600
throw them and like a Spore bomb
would go off.
431
00:24:20,100 --> 00:24:23,400
We don't have spores in this
game but like I'm glad they
432
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,100
didn't add that extra thing
because I don't think anybody
433
00:24:26,100 --> 00:24:30,600
really I do like grenade fungus
pustules I don't know if it
434
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,900
would have really translated
they almost show they almost
435
00:24:33,900 --> 00:24:37,700
would have had to have tendrils
or something just because they
436
00:24:37,700 --> 00:24:41,200
took out the Spore element and
had the tendrils added so it
437
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,600
almost would have been too much.
Yeah.
438
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,800
And I mean, in the game, do we
learn how the different kind of
439
00:24:49,100 --> 00:24:53,500
sectors or levels of?
No, no, no.
440
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:54,700
It's just like there's clickers
in.
441
00:24:54,700 --> 00:24:57,000
There's bloaters.
And because it's like, how does
442
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,200
one?
Even how does one even bloat so
443
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,900
much?
I mean, I know what I'm like
444
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:03,400
after Thanksgiving my God.
No.
445
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,900
I mean I think it's just
inferred that the longer that
446
00:25:05,900 --> 00:25:10,100
something is infected, the more
just Lodi or it gets evolves.
447
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:13,900
I don't know if it goes to, you
know, from regular Runner.
448
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:18,300
So I Kurt's a clicker, then to
bloater then to you know, giant
449
00:25:18,300 --> 00:25:22,000
mutation it could but I don't
think anybody's really able to
450
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,900
study these things.
Well, no, I think you know what?
451
00:25:23,900 --> 00:25:25,200
That's probably a good point,
right?
452
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,500
Because if we actually think of
the actual fungus, what it does
453
00:25:28,500 --> 00:25:30,500
to the being that it goes in is
that it first?
454
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:32,600
It controls it.
Then it solidifies it and then
455
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,800
it blooms into something else,
right?
456
00:25:35,100 --> 00:25:37,100
So I think you hit the nail on
the head.
457
00:25:37,100 --> 00:25:41,600
I may be, I think you put the
fungus under the microscope.
458
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,000
You got it this this scene where
Everything Breaks Loose we
459
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,100
talked about with ebenbolter
quite a bit.
460
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,600
Wait to go, go listen to that
interview.
461
00:25:51,900 --> 00:25:57,700
I just love the shot of Joel in
the sniper's nest shooting
462
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,200
while.
Then we also go to them on the
463
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,800
ground while then we also see
through his scope it's just the
464
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:09,800
so many perspectives is so cool
and really just makes the scene.
465
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,800
Yeah I mean the tension is like
dialed up to a million.
466
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,800
Yeah you just like But I did
love that thing.
467
00:26:16,900 --> 00:26:21,100
The Kathleen soldiers just had
to be like, I don't care about
468
00:26:21,100 --> 00:26:23,100
anything else like we're all
gonna die.
469
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,300
I mean and you know what part of
it is that for so long, I think
470
00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:30,100
kind of along the lines of what
you were saying before his us as
471
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:33,000
the viewer I feel like they have
the same thing where they were
472
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,400
so fixated on overthrowing
Federer and now so fixated on
473
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,100
getting Henry and Sam that you
forgot that there was a freaking
474
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:43,800
infected out breakout right,
right.
475
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,200
Right.
And I think it's important for
476
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,200
that to happen.
And if it's used too much, it's
477
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,100
too much.
And if it's not, then when it
478
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:55,100
happens, it's a little more
exactly warming.
479
00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:56,800
You get ripped in half.
Yeah, floater.
480
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,100
Yeah.
So, you know, Perry gets his
481
00:26:59,100 --> 00:27:01,600
head ripped off because he saved
Kathleen and that scene mate,
482
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,000
that's what made me think of
them having almost like a
483
00:27:04,008 --> 00:27:06,800
romantic relationship because I
don't know.
484
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,000
It's just the way they looked at
each.
485
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,800
Other was just more like oh no,
it was the the kissy blue?
486
00:27:11,900 --> 00:27:12,700
Yeah.
No.
487
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,000
His head was already off the
blur.
488
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,400
Has his head on the hand.
Exactly, I love you Kathleen.
489
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,700
Darlene, come.
Give me a kiss and then I'll rip
490
00:27:24,700 --> 00:27:27,500
your head off.
I want a matching set.
491
00:27:29,100 --> 00:27:34,000
We cannot talk about clicker,
girl, we can't get clicker,
492
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,500
clicker, kid, clicker, kicker,
can click OK.
493
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:42,200
Click our girl.
But that when Ellie goes into
494
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:47,600
the van to seek Refuge From the
creators of the freakin show
495
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,200
decided, oh, you know who can
get through the same thing?
496
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,200
LED did a child?
Now, let's not just make it an
497
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,100
infected child.
Let's make it a clicker child,
498
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,000
and we'll get somebody that's a
contortionist to do.
499
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,500
It torsion is clicker kid.
I mean, it's too much.
500
00:28:05,500 --> 00:28:07,500
Okay, here we go.
We're we should really been
501
00:28:07,500 --> 00:28:12,200
making rules to how to survive
this particular outbreak.
502
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,200
Whenever you go through a tiny
window, Close it behind you you
503
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,400
know we can't blame her.
But yes, shall we get up?
504
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,000
No, and that went it Not only
was it creepy because it was
505
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,800
that kid and it came in your
like that but immediately starts
506
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,500
just twisting and tumbling and
it was baby tumble, surprise all
507
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:35,400
over again, baby tumbles
surprise.
508
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,400
Bit quicker, prize.
Pick your clicker clicker,
509
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,400
right?
Before your I clicker, clicker,
510
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,200
clicker, she should get a prize.
Be very surprised.
511
00:28:44,500 --> 00:28:49,300
Imagine just the doll with just
mushroomed head and just and now
512
00:28:49,300 --> 00:28:53,000
for Christmas 2023.
It's this hot selling toy.
513
00:28:53,100 --> 00:28:58,300
I love you baby, clicker that.
Yeah they should add a little
514
00:28:58,300 --> 00:29:02,800
voice box to it. 100%, they have
to but oh my god when she just
515
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:07,200
tumble rolled twisted over the
back seat like you didn't need
516
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,100
To show off.
But I'm glad you did because I
517
00:29:10,100 --> 00:29:14,800
would have been 100% like LA and
be like, nope, get out there.
518
00:29:14,900 --> 00:29:18,800
No II mean.
I would have been, like, Simone
519
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,800
biles like to help.
Child is amazing, I need oh my
520
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,200
gosh. 10/10 10/10, right.
I've been scouring the child.
521
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,500
Good job girl, get it it just
like yeah yes I'd be dead dead
522
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:32,300
for sure.
If you like, I love you.
523
00:29:32,300 --> 00:29:35,600
Stan.
She ate that.
524
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:41,300
No crumbs, no crow.
Yeah, but I would have, I don't
525
00:29:41,300 --> 00:29:42,800
know what I would have done that
situation.
526
00:29:42,900 --> 00:29:45,700
I'm glad she got out.
I'm glad she got out.
527
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:52,600
But yeah we can't say that she
didn't stick The Landing right
528
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,300
on to Kathleen's face to Bumble
the shit out of it.
529
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:02,300
She said I want Mommy tenderized
you know yes you know it's just
530
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:05,300
just so much irony and poetic
justice.
531
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:10,200
Is that one of the last Line she
says, is kids die all the time.
532
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,400
What kills her?
A child?
533
00:30:13,100 --> 00:30:17,500
The kid reminds me of that vine.
Yeah, a child, a child?
534
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:23,700
No, but I mean it's great.
It's what a way to go out, but
535
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,700
this show again, is just a
testament to have introducing us
536
00:30:28,700 --> 00:30:33,400
to characters in such a limited
time and the ending of them just
537
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,600
almost being like, oh, you made
me feel something.
538
00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:40,800
Well, you know, Gosh not, I
wasn't, I wasn't sad that she
539
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,000
died.
I'm just, no, no, I mean that
540
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,300
out there, you know, it's this
as a property is so different.
541
00:30:46,300 --> 00:30:49,600
I feel like than any other they
are all zombie things.
542
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,200
Not this one.
They are all so because usually
543
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,400
when I would, I remember
watching something like The
544
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,200
Walking Dead and being like,
where the zombies, give me the
545
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,200
zombies.
This I'm so invested in the
546
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,800
people on the screen, even if
they're only there for two
547
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,700
episodes.
Yeah, I've seen you forget And
548
00:31:07,700 --> 00:31:12,200
then it explodes and you're
like, yeah, I forgot, I thought,
549
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,800
this is just a family drama.
Oh no, this is a family.
550
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,200
Rip your heart out stomp on it a
few times and then probably kick
551
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,800
you in the face.
It's, how is there going to be a
552
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,500
hopeful Arc at the end?
There's not.
553
00:31:25,300 --> 00:31:31,000
So there's not, okay.
I think we got kid clicker out
554
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,400
of our system.
Comment below.
555
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:37,400
Do you stand kit, clicker?
Oh, I'm anxious.
556
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:39,400
It.
They're only like yeah.
557
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,500
So like no.
Yes, right, break.
558
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,100
Okay, wait, wait.
Let me contortionist kid,
559
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:45,400
clicker.
Kills Kathleen.
560
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,100
How's that for alliteration?
Season Kay's?
561
00:31:50,100 --> 00:31:52,200
Wow, that's all that hard cut.
Yeah.
562
00:31:56,100 --> 00:32:01,800
Okay, no, so yes, know, we have
to, we have to, I like how we've
563
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,500
like opened up our episodes a
little more.
564
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:07,100
We're not going.
So in chronological order, but I
565
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:10,500
would be just.
It just wouldn't sit right with
566
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:13,500
me.
If we didn't talk about Kathleen
567
00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:16,000
dying.
Before we talk about the second
568
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,100
ending of this episode.
Let's just end the episode.
569
00:32:19,100 --> 00:32:21,600
Now don't have to talk about it.
All know what happened.
570
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,600
Yeah, it's sad.
It's done.
571
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,300

572
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:36,800
So, we get a scene with Ellie
and Sam, and this is one of my
573
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:42,000
favorite scenes in the show.
Just from the performances, we
574
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,400
have Sam who's deaf who has to
speak through his eyes?
575
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,000
I know there's a certain name
for this, my know, it's like a
576
00:32:49,100 --> 00:32:53,100
drawing peel.
Or I got magic pad Magic.
577
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,300
Old sheet.
Comment below.
578
00:32:56,300 --> 00:32:57,900
Do you know what it's called?
So it's got it, we're not
579
00:32:57,900 --> 00:33:01,600
Googling it.
No, but we get this conversation
580
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:06,300
with them, and as they're
communicating through this pad,
581
00:33:06,700 --> 00:33:11,900
we start seeing Sam ask very
pointed or bigger questions than
582
00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:13,900
you would think you would ask
when they're just reading a
583
00:33:13,908 --> 00:33:16,800
comic book.
And one of the questions he
584
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:23,400
asked Kelly, Why are you afraid?
Mmm, and she reveals a little
585
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,200
bit of herself and I think she's
kind of hinting at what's to
586
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,700
come.
But she says, she's afraid of
587
00:33:29,700 --> 00:33:33,200
ending up alone, right?
Which is just for a 14 year old
588
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,700
to say, is a lot, it's
heartbreaking, it's okay, it's
589
00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:40,800
heartbreaking, your face.
The way you what the words
590
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,300
you're saying, and your face are
complete opposites.
591
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,500
You're like smiling and saying
heartbreak.
592
00:33:45,500 --> 00:33:48,000
Well, you know why?
Because I'm being honest and
593
00:33:48,100 --> 00:33:51,100
also, I wanted to try to make
something work with Heartbreak
594
00:33:51,100 --> 00:33:55,500
Hotel, the song.
No, heartbreak, no.
595
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,600
Is we checked into Heartbreak
Hotel?
596
00:33:57,700 --> 00:34:00,700
I know we did and will never
leave where your Forever.
597
00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:02,400
What?
Yeah, as long as we're covering
598
00:34:02,500 --> 00:34:06,500
the last of us, we are for sure.
Jack didn't know free,
599
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:12,100
continental breakfast.
But Sam asks, a question that I
600
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:14,699
think has been brought up in
this type of property before.
601
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:18,900
And he asks, do you think
they're still human Mint or
602
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:20,800
something along those lines.
Like, after they turned you
603
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,000
think the monsters are still
themselves writers.
604
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,900
Yeah, I think that was more
along the lines of what he said,
605
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:30,600
but it's an interesting concept
because why wouldn't a child
606
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:35,000
think that especially a child
that is like posts this.
607
00:34:35,500 --> 00:34:38,400
So he just doesn't I don't know
if he's seen people that have
608
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:42,800
turned or he just knows that
they look like us but they don't
609
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,000
act like us.
So what is making him do that?
610
00:34:46,699 --> 00:34:49,500
I think also he just saw a child
gymnast.
611
00:34:49,500 --> 00:34:53,400
Still be able to Tumble, oh my
God, that's it, clicker.
612
00:34:53,500 --> 00:34:56,400
We're done with kid, clicker.
I'm just saying I mean, I think
613
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,700
honestly the question comes from
a place of fear because he knows
614
00:34:59,700 --> 00:35:02,000
what's happened to him and he's
afraid that he'll be gone
615
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,500
forever.
Also, what a champ, I mean he
616
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:08,200
walked all that way.
He was not crying and he looks
617
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:12,700
relatively fine and he has a
huge bite mark on his leg, which
618
00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:16,200
he does revealed to Ellie and
let's just like a up them.
619
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:21,000
Trying to make us cry or just
awful when Ellie tells him.
620
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,100
My blood is medicine and she
gets that cuts herself.
621
00:35:24,100 --> 00:35:26,700
Tries to rub it on there because
what I mean at that point, what
622
00:35:26,700 --> 00:35:29,000
do you do II?
Don't blame her.
623
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,300
And it's so selfless.
And it's so I want to protect
624
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:34,700
you and I want to help you.
My blood is supposed to be
625
00:35:34,700 --> 00:35:37,400
magic.
It's supposed to do this thing
626
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,200
that they're saying, but is it
going to work?
627
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,200
I also think there's the
innocence of a child, right?
628
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,600
Think about, I don't know if you
break a plate of your Others.
629
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,900
And, oh my God, back together.
And you're like, they won't
630
00:35:48,900 --> 00:35:51,700
notice, it'll be okay this fixed
it, you know?
631
00:35:51,700 --> 00:35:53,800
And has like the glitter glue.
Exactly.
632
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,900
Exactly.
It's just a complete mess and
633
00:35:55,900 --> 00:35:58,700
one of the pieces is missing,
but your kid and you're saying,
634
00:35:58,700 --> 00:36:00,600
No, this will fix it.
This will be okay, will do,
635
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,300
it'll be fine.
And it's sort of along those
636
00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:07,900
lines as well of her feeling
like this is this will this will
637
00:36:07,900 --> 00:36:10,000
be okay, I got it.
I got it, I could do this.
638
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:16,200
Yeah, yeah.
And the fact that They decide to
639
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,500
wear Ellie decides to not tell
Joel and Henry.
640
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:22,900
Like she's really either
believing or hoping that this
641
00:36:22,900 --> 00:36:27,500
blood work and what's just so
sad about this one.
642
00:36:27,500 --> 00:36:32,400
We finally see Sam has turned
into an infected is Ellie was
643
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:37,100
sleeping right there.
He was already turned and by
644
00:36:37,100 --> 00:36:40,900
chance, I guess because he is
deaf, right?
645
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:45,600
Maybe the infected wasn't able
to know No Ellie was there.
646
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Like, you just didn't hear it
because he didn't react until
647
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:52,600
she touched him and it's just,
and it's directly from the game.
648
00:36:52,900 --> 00:36:56,000
Like just seeing that scene
again, these scenes that I know
649
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,600
are happening.
They just hit just as hard, if
650
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,500
not harder because they're
actual people, this tiger.
651
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:05,900
Yeah, I think the source
material is just incredible and
652
00:37:05,900 --> 00:37:09,500
then it's totally completely
amped up to more human levels
653
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:13,100
because humans are acting out
these emoji and it's not the end
654
00:37:13,100 --> 00:37:16,800
game of Being a game of being
like that type of playability.
655
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,300
This time it's more you're going
to feel what this thing has been
656
00:37:20,300 --> 00:37:25,800
saying this entire time and the
act of or the attention that
657
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,400
happens in Joel wanting to go
get the gun right away and just
658
00:37:29,700 --> 00:37:33,800
save Ellie because that's the
rational thing to do Henry,
659
00:37:34,100 --> 00:37:37,200
doesn't act rationally.
Because why would he has his
660
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,400
brother?
It's time to process that when
661
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,600
he does shoot his brother.
And seeing what he did dealing
662
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:47,200
with that mean like imagine your
brother that you did all this
663
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,300
stuff for to save and you
finally think you're safe,
664
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,000
finally think you're save.
Joel has been Joel's going to
665
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,300
take you guys in.
There are going to go with you,
666
00:37:55,300 --> 00:37:57,400
they're going to become of a
quad now.
667
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,100
Yeah.
And the decision that he had to
668
00:38:00,100 --> 00:38:03,300
make in a split second but also
processing that grief and the
669
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:06,100
grief of like oh shit like he
was gone anyway.
670
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:13,700
You know what just there's also
something to be said About Henry
671
00:38:13,700 --> 00:38:16,800
as a person right compared to
Kathleen.
672
00:38:17,300 --> 00:38:22,700
She couldn't see her brother
being sacrificed to save someone
673
00:38:22,700 --> 00:38:23,400
else.
Right?
674
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,000
Right.
And somebody more in need and in
675
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,500
this scene, Henry is actually
able to make that decision.
676
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:34,600
Yeah, he's able to let his
brother go so someone else can
677
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:35,600
survive.
Yeah.
678
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,500
So he was always the opposite
lane.
679
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,700
Yeah, 100% always yeah.
Always always and Janet Lee.
680
00:38:41,700 --> 00:38:44,900
This is the last of us and you
can't stay hopeful for too long
681
00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:50,400
and you can't be happy for too
long and the look The acting
682
00:38:50,700 --> 00:38:54,600
that Lamar Johnson did was is so
phenomenal.
683
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,600
I don't think I've seen them in
anything else could be wrong but
684
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,400
this is definitely the first
starring role that I've seen or
685
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,000
guest starring and supporting.
Is that a better word?
686
00:39:04,100 --> 00:39:05,700
I don't know how it works when
you're only there for two
687
00:39:05,700 --> 00:39:13,500
episodes, but effective.
Yes, but The choice to, so, he
688
00:39:13,500 --> 00:39:16,400
kills himself, but the choice to
not just go to blacker and the
689
00:39:16,408 --> 00:39:18,100
episode there or anything
because they could have.
690
00:39:18,100 --> 00:39:22,300
It could have been a cliffhanger
Staying on Ellie's face.
691
00:39:22,900 --> 00:39:27,900
That is just the extra punch
because Ellie wasn't able to
692
00:39:27,900 --> 00:39:30,900
save Sam.
And now she lost two people,
693
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,100
right?
And I also think again, there's
694
00:39:33,100 --> 00:39:37,000
that conversation of slowly but
surely Ellie's innocence being
695
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,100
taken away from her, so there
she is again.
696
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:43,000
Watching another tragedy right
in front of her eyes.
697
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,100
And we're seeing her reaction to
that, realizing that she's going
698
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:49,700
to be an adult now.
Yeah, after this, there's no
699
00:39:49,700 --> 00:39:51,900
going back.
Right, she just on the last
700
00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:57,700
episode really harm somebody
with a gun in a very violent
701
00:39:57,700 --> 00:39:59,500
way.
And then this one she loses two
702
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:02,600
more people that you really, you
know, wanted to endure and
703
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:07,500
survive with and it didn't work
out and we see her processing
704
00:40:07,500 --> 00:40:11,700
that or really I don't know.
Like she's either at this point
705
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:15,300
or how they're writing her.
She's able to work through these
706
00:40:15,300 --> 00:40:18,100
fairly quickly.
She's the one that kind of just,
707
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:21,500
you know, tires ties your shoes
and Like let's go, which way is
708
00:40:21,500 --> 00:40:23,100
west.
Let's go, but she writes.
709
00:40:23,100 --> 00:40:26,000
I'm sorry on his pad and leaves
it on the graves that they Dig
710
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,800
Dug for them.
And it's just such a she know,
711
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,800
she's guilty like she you know
that she's feels guilty about
712
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:38,200
this and and it's so effective
the writing and just the acting
713
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:42,700
it's phenomenal.
Yeah, I also want to say how how
714
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,300
intense just the sound of a
gunshot is, you know, in these
715
00:40:47,300 --> 00:40:51,100
last two episodes we really
didn't see Something like we saw
716
00:40:51,100 --> 00:40:54,200
people holding guns and shooting
people but we never saw the
717
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,200
receiver of the bullet, feel it,
right?
718
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,500
Even when Kathleen murders the
doctor we don't see it.
719
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:04,900
And in this scene, there's two
just but the sound of a gunshot
720
00:41:04,900 --> 00:41:08,500
is so scary.
And so telling that we don't
721
00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:12,400
want to and we don't need to see
the under Ed other end of it,
722
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,000
you know?
Yeah, the, the effect of the
723
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,400
pool of blood from Sam, instead
of showing his body, which I
724
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,000
think is in weighs more.
Effective.
725
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:25,900
And I think the right choice do
but showing the blood and it cut
726
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:29,300
to it a few times and just
showing growing bigger and
727
00:41:29,300 --> 00:41:30,800
bigger.
Like this is permanent.
728
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,500
This is not like this is real,
this actually happened.
729
00:41:34,300 --> 00:41:38,100
It's just it's so many little
details that are in this type of
730
00:41:38,100 --> 00:41:41,400
scene that just shows the
strength of this show.
731
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:49,400
I very much was hoping that this
was a deviation from the game
732
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,900
because Cuz it they could have.
I'm curious, like I understand
733
00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:55,900
why they did it.
I understand the grand scheme of
734
00:41:55,908 --> 00:42:00,700
things why they did this.
I just like, could there have
735
00:42:00,700 --> 00:42:05,600
been a different way almost, you
know, it almost feels like when
736
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,200
they're taking things from the
game.
737
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,800
They're only going to change it
to make you sadder now.
738
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,800
Do you know, it was like, in the
game with with Bill and Frank,
739
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,300
right?
Frank takes his own life and we
740
00:42:17,300 --> 00:42:18,700
don't even meet him.
We don't know anything.
741
00:42:18,700 --> 00:42:22,300
No, but I'm so.
So he LT still dies in the show,
742
00:42:22,300 --> 00:42:24,900
but we get to see his beautiful
relationship, right?
743
00:42:24,900 --> 00:42:28,100
It even more impactful and made
that blow like a little easier
744
00:42:28,100 --> 00:42:31,100
is like, oh I feel sick but then
like a kiss on the cheek, it's
745
00:42:31,100 --> 00:42:35,000
like, okay, but I also think it
makes it harder as the audience
746
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,100
member to, to watch the person
died, right?
747
00:42:38,100 --> 00:42:42,000
So, even in these two episodes,
we got to really know Henry and
748
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,000
salmon really like them and then
they were gone.
749
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,700
Yeah.
So compared to the game because
750
00:42:47,700 --> 00:42:50,300
we get more time with them.
They change it in the future.
751
00:42:50,300 --> 00:42:52,500
Fact that they actually give us
more information.
752
00:42:52,500 --> 00:42:54,700
Yeah.
It makes the emotional punch
753
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,700
that much more of a knockout.
Yeah it did.
754
00:42:57,700 --> 00:43:00,900
And that's that's what I mean.
It's just such a gut punch.
755
00:43:00,900 --> 00:43:04,200
It's going to be a word that's
used for the show, but I think
756
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:08,200
symbolizes really what the
impact that this story could
757
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:13,400
have, I needed to take a warm
down absent salt after this
758
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:14,800
episode.
He really did.
759
00:43:14,900 --> 00:43:17,800
And then I came out and watch
You've Got Mail.
760
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,200
So yeah.
Meg, Ryan and Tom Hanks, because
761
00:43:20,300 --> 00:43:23,300
I just needed something silly to
watch.
762
00:43:23,900 --> 00:43:26,500
I was so emotionally disturbed
and upset.
763
00:43:26,500 --> 00:43:29,800
Yeah this, I mean episode for
was really like a breather,
764
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:31,900
almost any between three and
five.
765
00:43:32,300 --> 00:43:34,100
It was a bridge between
tragedies.
766
00:43:34,100 --> 00:43:36,300
Yeah.
And I have a feeling that that's
767
00:43:36,300 --> 00:43:38,600
going to be the the same
pattern.
768
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,000
Next episode is.
We know that he gets to his
769
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,300
brother, Tommy snow, there's
going to be snow, but then
770
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:49,200
episode 7, got punched, episode
8, maybe a bridge episode 9 got
771
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,900
punch.
It's a trend, it's a trend.
772
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,200
Yeah.
The data analysis.
773
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,900
I mean it's like this is fact
that it's gonna happen.
774
00:43:56,900 --> 00:44:01,200
I just want I I just want one
more nice episode.
775
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,600
Can we go see her again or next
episode we'll see what happens
776
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,700
with Tommy.
Yeah, I mean it got announce
777
00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:11,900
that there is season to this
conversation has come up with
778
00:44:11,900 --> 00:44:17,400
Derek and I quite a bit.
I-i'm curious where they go,
779
00:44:17,500 --> 00:44:21,400
like are we they're wrapping up
before the full first game and
780
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:25,700
this one, which is incredible.
But are we getting the second
781
00:44:25,700 --> 00:44:27,200
game right away?
Are we getting the same
782
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,900
characters playing everybody?
Because if they go straight to
783
00:44:29,900 --> 00:44:34,200
that second one at least older
I'm just really excited for the
784
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:38,500
show because I feel like after
this season with the success and
785
00:44:38,500 --> 00:44:41,400
everything they can really go
anyway.
786
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,400
Yeah.
Maybe what they'll give us
787
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:49,300
actually.
Is happiness, is the maybe
788
00:44:49,300 --> 00:44:52,800
season two of the show is giving
us the bridge between game one
789
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,600
and game two.
Maybe maybe they might have to
790
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:59,000
write that whole story for us to
finally get there.
791
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:05,000
I wonder if the decisions for
what these creators and people
792
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,800
that are working, the show seem
very intentional and I'm curious
793
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:15,900
if Neil druckmann would want us
to know, No that in between like
794
00:45:15,900 --> 00:45:21,200
would what happens in to be as
impactful if we have to wait as
795
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,200
long?
I know that I believe it was one
796
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,700
of the creators of the show said
that season or part two of the
797
00:45:27,707 --> 00:45:31,500
game would be multiple Seasons,
so they couldn't tell the full
798
00:45:31,500 --> 00:45:35,100
story of two and they're so we
very much just might get to, and
799
00:45:35,100 --> 00:45:40,200
then part or season season 2.
Part, 2 of part. 2 of Last of Us
800
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:41,800
would be the third.
I got it.
801
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:45,800
So I'm very Needless to say, all
this, I'm just trying to say is
802
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,100
I'm very excited for the show.
I don't think that there's been
803
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:51,500
an IP that I've known prior to a
getting a screen adaptation.
804
00:45:51,500 --> 00:45:55,500
That I've been this super
excited for or like they could
805
00:45:55,500 --> 00:45:57,400
do anything.
Like I just, I know what's
806
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,200
happening, but I don't and it's
just exciting.
807
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,700
History of the bloater is all
next season.
808
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,500
We just, we live.
We live with an underground
809
00:46:06,500 --> 00:46:08,300
group of bloaters.
No.
810
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,600
Oh my God, imagine there's like
a spin-off and it's like kid
811
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:15,200
clicker, but they make it like
Sitcom like when they did the,
812
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:19,400
the Geico caveman or whatever,
but Daddy bloater, exactly mommy
813
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,100
clicker.
Yeah, get quicker.
814
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,300
Can a bloater in a clicker, make
it work.
815
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:27,600
Welcome on bloaty clicks.
It's just a, what if season last
816
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:31,300
of, actually, totally.
And so next episode, we get
817
00:46:32,100 --> 00:46:35,600
Tommy, we get some brotherly
bonding.
818
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:39,500
Hopefully time we get snow.
Do you think we'll get like a
819
00:46:39,508 --> 00:46:43,400
little section of what?
Tom, how Tommy?
820
00:46:43,500 --> 00:46:45,900
Got there, 100% right now, it's
gonna be our flashback.
821
00:46:45,900 --> 00:46:50,200
Yeah, they might introduce us to
them prior to Joel and Ellie
822
00:46:50,500 --> 00:46:51,900
getting to the point that they
are now.
823
00:46:51,900 --> 00:46:55,700
I could see that happening, but
hey, I've been wrong before.
824
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,500
Not often.
Oh gosh.
825
00:46:57,500 --> 00:47:01,500
The Rock will let you have that
for now.
826
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,800
I just, I don't know.
I just can't, I don't know if I
827
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,400
could take this anymore.
It's just too emotional.
828
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:13,400
Yeah, so sorry.
Not covering season 2 will see
829
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:17,300
Evan, you want to come back and
we're waiting for you, but yeah.
830
00:47:17,300 --> 00:47:20,500
So that's it, you know, ten out
of ten.
831
00:47:20,500 --> 00:47:23,000
I feel like this so far.
There's been no episodes that
832
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,800
could do no wrong in this show.
It's just still so strong
833
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,800
halfway through season one.
Absolutely.
834
00:47:29,900 --> 00:47:34,000
I mean and you know I've said
before I'm not really sort of a
835
00:47:34,008 --> 00:47:39,000
drama guy when our dramas are
not my jam but I have to keep
836
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,700
coming back to it.
It's just too too good.
837
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,000
Yeah there's just two and it's
like sad because it's like I
838
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,500
want to keep coming back to it,
but I know it's going to be
839
00:47:48,500 --> 00:47:51,000
terrible.
Well, we don't know I'm signing
840
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,000
myself, we might tears.
We're gonna get.
841
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,900
Maybe we'll get more episodes
like episode 3.
842
00:47:54,900 --> 00:47:58,300
It was tragic, but it was just
so beautiful, so beautiful
843
00:47:58,700 --> 00:48:01,100
i-i'm.
So okay, we gotta end it here
844
00:48:01,100 --> 00:48:03,200
because we're just going to keep
talking about episodes already
845
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,800
talked about, but again, I can't
stress enough.
846
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,200
Listen to our ebenbolter
interview that we have, because
847
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:14,100
he tells us some interesting
things about episode 3, And some
848
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:16,300
of the feathery things that
happen.
849
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:22,800
Yeah.
But next week episode 6, right?
850
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,000
Yeah man, we'll see you then.
Alright, bye goodbye.
