All right.
Yeah.
38
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:19,300
Okay, let's talk.
All right, let's take a look
39
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:24,500
back at The Last of Us.
Episode 7, left behind another
40
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:28,200
jovial, a chapter.
Wait, wait, do we didn't?
41
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,800
We already know.
We didn't, we didn't.
42
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,600
About this already.
Oh, I thought we already talked
43
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,000
about like I know we talked
about it but I forgot we had to
44
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,200
do.
Look, back on that episode.
45
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,800
We talk about it, right?
Yeah, very cool.
46
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,600
I'm saying listen, these,
they're so sad.
47
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,000
They all just blend together.
Did we block an entire week out
48
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,900
of our memories?
That's what it sounds like.
49
00:02:47,900 --> 00:02:52,300
All right, go ahead.
All right, this holy, it's just
50
00:02:52,300 --> 00:02:54,100
so stoked, forget it, whatever
it said.
51
00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:59,400
Okay as Joel lays in a basement
on the brink of death, he tells
52
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,200
a lie to go just as she's about
to leave.
53
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,800
We flash back to her days at the
federal Academy Riley appears
54
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,000
and takes her on a trip to see
the for actually, five
55
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,700
escalators included wonders of
them, all Riley confides in
56
00:03:13,700 --> 00:03:16,300
Ellie that she has joined the
fireflies and will be leaving
57
00:03:16,300 --> 00:03:19,300
the next day as the pair dance
on a display case that a
58
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:21,100
Halloween store, they share a
kiss.
59
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,800
The Magic Moment is broken by an
infected after a fight with the
60
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,800
monster.
Both girls discover they have
61
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,800
been bitten in the present,
Ellie, finds a needle and thread
62
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,700
I'd begin stitching Joel's wound
refusing to lose someone else
63
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:38,500
close to her, okay.
Thanks, you're welcome you this
64
00:03:38,500 --> 00:03:40,600
season.
You have the one job.
65
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,900
I do not like because you just
remind us of that.
66
00:03:43,900 --> 00:03:45,900
And then we get to talk about
the current.
67
00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:51,100
Let's relive some traumas.
Let's talk about sad things
68
00:03:51,100 --> 00:03:53,400
again.
And then you said things,
69
00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:56,000
alright.
Spoiler alert for The Last of
70
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,200
Us, pretty much season one.
We got one episode left and I'm
71
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,100
not going to spoil the game.
So you're fine, you're free,
72
00:04:03,100 --> 00:04:05,900
you're free from that.
All right, let us officially
73
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:10,400
Take a bite of The Last of Us
episode 8 when we are in need
74
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,100
whoo.
Great title for anything.
75
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,600
I just love it when we already
need.
76
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,700
Well, it's not the sound of
music but yeah.
77
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,600
Hey, I could have been, I was
doing more of a church choir.
78
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,700
So this episode Joel's still not
doing good, he's doing worse, I
79
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:28,800
would say is doing worse, he
can't even keep his eyes open.
80
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:35,200
It's a very not great experience
for LA, but this episode gives
81
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,100
us and Only a chance to see a
little bit of a role reversal.
82
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,200
Sure.
Meow.
83
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,300
So it's really taking the lead.
Yeah.
84
00:04:42,300 --> 00:04:45,000
And in the game, when this
happened, it was very much
85
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,800
alike.
I'm Ellie.
86
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,300
Okay.
I guess we're gonna do this.
87
00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:54,300
Yeah, so it was cool to have a
very, I want to say Ellie
88
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:56,100
centered episode.
Yeah.
89
00:04:56,100 --> 00:05:00,100
Aside from the Silver Lake crew,
but it was Ellie.
90
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:03,200
And this is what it would be.
Like if you were on your own and
91
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,700
sadly for someone who is, I In
on their own, for probably the
92
00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:10,800
first time.
She's learned a lot.
93
00:05:10,900 --> 00:05:14,000
She's grown a lot and she kicks
a lot of, but yeah, but, you
94
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,900
know, she did ask Joel did
really help her with hunting and
95
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:22,400
training and would have come in
handy just a little bit, but she
96
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,300
was still good.
Yeah, a little hunting
97
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:27,100
Excursion, she, she got some
things done.
98
00:05:27,100 --> 00:05:29,900
Maybe not to the way that she
wanted to complete them.
99
00:05:29,900 --> 00:05:33,800
They probably didn't all go as
planned, but she was fearless
100
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:38,700
and she used some tactics.
But you know that everything
101
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:43,800
worked out listen she tried her
best because Joel Joel is an
102
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,600
uninfected person during the
entire time of the infected with
103
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:53,600
an infection, what an infection
to have when infections suck.
104
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,800
Then there's no medicine.
Yeah.
105
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,800
It's like the word is taboo but
the dude has an infection.
106
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,100
Yeah.
It's just that, it's not good.
107
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,200
You know.
And Ellie is really trying her
108
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,200
best.
I mean, she She has the tiniest
109
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,100
little scraps of food.
She found some needle and
110
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:13,200
thread, you couldn't ask for
more from her.
111
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:19,300
Well medicine from her calendar.
You can't ask for more.
112
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:21,300
She know.
It's like well she she she
113
00:06:21,300 --> 00:06:24,800
should be a frickin pharmacist
in canvas and figure it out.
114
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,600
Yeah, well they didn't teach you
that vegetable.
115
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,200
Isn't it in Resident Evil?
They're mixing herbs to create
116
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,900
the ultimate healing object.
I'm sure there's herbs.
117
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
A game.
How do you heal in The Last of
118
00:06:38,008 --> 00:06:40,600
Us, you make like medpac?
Okay.
119
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,600
Yeah a lot of the game is like
finding screws and bolts and
120
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,200
like things to make your weapons
more durable and also more
121
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,800
pointy.
Of course.
122
00:06:48,900 --> 00:06:51,200
It's so it is important.
Yeah, there's a, there's
123
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,600
actually a pretty cool game
mechanic in there but you know,
124
00:06:54,900 --> 00:06:58,100
they don't have Med packs like
they know and not not in the
125
00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:59,800
real world version, this one.
Yeah.
126
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,200
And the game you have to like
after you have a certain amount
127
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,800
of Med packs obviously, but the
game doesn't instantly.
128
00:07:05,900 --> 00:07:08,900
Only hear you when you use it.
Like the motion is there like
129
00:07:08,900 --> 00:07:11,700
wrapping their arm and stuff.
So things are still coming,
130
00:07:11,700 --> 00:07:14,000
ashore.
You as you're trying to heal
131
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,400
yourself, it's it's trespassing.
They're just gonna say that this
132
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,000
game, this game.
It's like emotionally
133
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,000
manipulative, it's stressful.
It's like everybody's like it's
134
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,000
the greatest game on earth.
It is to my grave, I will say.
135
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,900
Until there is one that is
better.
136
00:07:32,900 --> 00:07:35,400
It's just narratively the best
game.
137
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:39,800
Is and probably ever will be.
So I heard it here first, I
138
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:46,200
believe you cosign, Noah, but so
this, this episode very wintery.
139
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:51,000
It's a very, it's a harsh harsh
winter, but we get to see ye
140
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,800
another group of people that,
you know, aren't great and
141
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,100
aren't doing so great as Ellie
calls him, the hunger Club,
142
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:04,400
yeah, they're obviously very
hungry, but it's an interesting
143
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,700
group to see.
See because again the lines the
144
00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:11,400
moral compass.
Where is it?
145
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:14,400
It's the the lines that people
will go the things that they
146
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,100
need to do.
Because remember, Joel this
147
00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:20,800
whole time is like I've done
things in my past as he done
148
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,100
some of the things that these
silver like people have.
149
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,500
And I don't know, I don't know
either.
150
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,100
And I think there's an
interesting juxtaposition here.
151
00:08:28,100 --> 00:08:31,300
You know, the last sort of big
group that we saw was Tommy's
152
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,400
group.
Yeah, in Jackson and they were
153
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,799
like la-di-da having movie
Nights.
154
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,200
Really understanding how to run
civilization in a way and then
155
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,700
we get to these people and
you're like, oh, another group,
156
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:47,000
they must really love it there.
No, no.
157
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,100
It's quite Apparent from the
first scene that we get them.
158
00:08:52,100 --> 00:08:54,800
So, they're having some type of
funeral.
159
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,200
There's a you love reading that
David is doing Scott Shepherd
160
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,900
plays.
David the performance in this
161
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:05,300
between Bella Ramsey and Scott
Shepherd.
162
00:09:05,300 --> 00:09:09,300
I just this show does not miss.
It doesn't miss with these
163
00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:12,200
people that they chose to play
these characters.
164
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,300
Oh, well, the nuances.
Yeah, the looks the.
165
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,800
The smirks.
Oh my God.
166
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,600
It's amazing.
And between the two of them in
167
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,000
their conversations, it
throughout the entire episode.
168
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,500
It's like the power keeps
shifting.
169
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:27,300
But yeah to them it's like oh,
you feel like oh, David has the
170
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:27,900
upper hand?
No.
171
00:09:28,100 --> 00:09:30,500
No Ellie has the upper hand.
They just keep shifting back and
172
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:31,500
forth.
It's a really interesting
173
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:35,200
Dynamic to watch.
Yeah, we get the sense that the
174
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,200
first sin PSI.
It's a in this episode that
175
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,600
something isn't quite right?
With this group is when the
176
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,600
young girl of Alec who had
passed away, that they're
177
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:49,200
bearing her, you know, his
daughter asked, can we bury him?
178
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,200
There's hesitation, hmm, there's
hesitation there whenever he's
179
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,500
talking to James played by Troy
Baker, aka, the original voice
180
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:58,900
actor for Joel know which I was
expecting to hear Joel, but I
181
00:09:58,908 --> 00:10:02,400
guess it was just acting when
he's doing the voice.
182
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,300
He was acting.
Yeah, doing his job but that was
183
00:10:05,300 --> 00:10:07,800
really the first First moment we
got like, oh that's that's like
184
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,800
why did why would you didn't
answer it right away and I don't
185
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:11,400
like that.
Yeah.
186
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,800
And in this scene, I think
something else that I took note
187
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,900
of is there felt like some
people weren't look willing to
188
00:10:18,900 --> 00:10:21,000
look him in the eye, as he was
speaking.
189
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,600
People were avoiding his gaze,
which made it feel like he held
190
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,400
power over them and some of them
weren't comfortable with it.
191
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:31,400
It's very much like, they're his
subjects and they have to do
192
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,600
whatever.
He says, they have to go to the
193
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,700
readings, they have to go to
church or what?
194
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:39,100
Listen to his sermons.
Because what I mean, they left
195
00:10:39,100 --> 00:10:43,400
from Pittsburgh because that
fedra qz went to hell.
196
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,300
What are you going to do?
You're in a blizzard I guess I
197
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:49,500
don't know.
Write a story together.
198
00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:53,300
I gotta.
Yeah, the dynamic between David
199
00:10:53,300 --> 00:10:58,400
and Ellie is its term, oily.
It's you'd like you said, who
200
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,300
has the upper hand?
Who doesn't I?
201
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:03,300
Love the part?
Where Ellie sees the deer.
202
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:06,500
Right?
She gets the deer, she's
203
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:09,700
tracking it down but James and
David or the one that finds it.
204
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:13,000
And I'm just I'm just I just
want to say, okay, but it out
205
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:13,700
there.
Cannibalism?
206
00:11:13,700 --> 00:11:15,400
Okay.
They ate, they eat people.
207
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,300
Yeah.
The girl's father, they're
208
00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:20,100
eating him.
They didn't bury him because
209
00:11:20,100 --> 00:11:23,600
they ate him that he's currently
unlike the Butcher Block.
210
00:11:24,300 --> 00:11:27,600
Yeah and I kind of definitely
said in an earlier episode or
211
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,100
maybe it was the patreon
episode.
212
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:30,900
I just I'm not comfortable with
cattle.
213
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,400
No.
And there seems to be a lot of
214
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,600
cannibalism.
And properties lately.
215
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,400
You it's trending hashtag
trending, it wasn't the game, so
216
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,400
2013.
All right, so they started the
217
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,400
truth.
But so there's something that
218
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,700
they were, you know, they went
to cannibalism, right?
219
00:11:48,900 --> 00:11:53,200
And there's a conversation
before James and David go and
220
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,900
find the deer and find Ellie and
like, they're having a hard time
221
00:11:57,500 --> 00:12:01,700
finding food and hunting and
they sent that group out where
222
00:12:01,700 --> 00:12:04,000
Alec died because Joel killed
him.
223
00:12:04,500 --> 00:12:07,200
Full circle here but it's like,
okay.
224
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,400
So this 14 year old girl, just
walked outside.
225
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,900
And 10 minutes later found a
deer.
226
00:12:13,900 --> 00:12:19,400
Like, are you guys really do it?
Are you trying or like it?
227
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,500
Did you guys like want to eat
each other?
228
00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:24,600
I well, I think David might of
he's violent.
229
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,300
Let's try it.
Yeah, it's like very much like
230
00:12:27,300 --> 00:12:30,300
he's like I found religion.
I know the body of Christ.
231
00:12:30,300 --> 00:12:32,200
It's a body.
We got to eat bodies.
232
00:12:33,100 --> 00:12:34,700
We're eating, we're eating.
Bodies.
233
00:12:35,300 --> 00:12:39,700
God body, eat, body, anybody
Eat, Pray, Love Ya, Julia
234
00:12:39,700 --> 00:12:42,600
Roberts, obviously, that's
right.
235
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,100
So I thought that was funny
because it's like this, this
236
00:12:45,100 --> 00:12:48,600
girl finds it very easily and
was able to do it.
237
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:54,400
My other question though is is
like didn't that guy like come
238
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,200
swinging at Joel?
Yeah.
239
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,100
So it's well like they weren't
if they were out looking for
240
00:13:01,100 --> 00:13:03,800
like they should eat in the
monkeys on the campus like why
241
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,300
are they trying Going to kill
Joel.
242
00:13:05,300 --> 00:13:09,300
Well I think it was one of those
things you know, the this show
243
00:13:09,300 --> 00:13:13,000
in this episode, I think paints
different perspectives pretty
244
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,100
well.
So we got the role reversal
245
00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:18,800
where Elly is going to
experience, what Joel kind of
246
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,400
has to do on a daily basis and
what violence the toll that it
247
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:28,600
has on him, Maybe they thought
Joel and Ellie were Hunters just
248
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,600
like they died.
So it's that's where I'm saying
249
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,700
like the the line between good
and evil or the more compasses.
250
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:38,800
It's very much blurred because
are you really going to chance
251
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,900
it?
I don't know.
252
00:13:41,500 --> 00:13:45,100
So unfortunately Joel did kill
that guy.
253
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,900
It's like get before you get
got.
254
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,400
Exactly.
Exactly.
255
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,500
Just be nice.
Just be nice.
256
00:13:50,500 --> 00:13:53,300
Just talk to each other.
Yeah, Scott.
257
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,700
Hi.
Why you got a bat?
258
00:13:55,700 --> 00:14:00,000
What are you doing?
I mean that is a good point.
259
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,400
I don't think they really had
guns.
260
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:07,000
So I mean you know module, yeah.
Well that's the thing with Joel
261
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,900
though, right?
Is that swings?
262
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:12,100
First ask questions later he's
at he might be sort of a leap
263
00:14:12,100 --> 00:14:14,600
before you look person in those
types of situations.
264
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,100
But in that moment, a couple of
days before it, he was going to
265
00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:21,400
leave Ellie.
So he has finally accepted the
266
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,300
responsibility and in his mind
he cannot Failed her but any any
267
00:14:25,300 --> 00:14:26,900
chance.
So he needed to get rid of this
268
00:14:26,900 --> 00:14:28,300
person.
That was coming at them.
269
00:14:28,300 --> 00:14:32,700
I mean, not really mad at him
hard to be, you know, unless
270
00:14:32,700 --> 00:14:35,400
David was like yeah, go out
there looking for deer, but if
271
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,300
you find a human wink, wink.
Well hello.
272
00:14:38,300 --> 00:14:43,700
Only a few people knew
especially venison.
273
00:14:43,700 --> 00:14:49,100
AKA young fellow girl made for
grunting all groan, man.
274
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,600
Well, as we know, he does not
want the kids to Die, the young
275
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,400
ones to die.
Well, okay yeah.
276
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:57,300
So yeah, I don't want to talk
about that right now.
277
00:14:58,100 --> 00:14:59,500
We don't want to talk about it
ever.
278
00:14:59,500 --> 00:15:02,600
Yeah.
So the power of the conversation
279
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,300
that Ellie and David have the
first one I think is interesting
280
00:15:06,900 --> 00:15:10,900
and it shows just how fucked up
David is really.
281
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,100
So he sends Jame off James off
to go get the medicine.
282
00:15:15,100 --> 00:15:18,300
Great penicillin, we need it to
happen that way.
283
00:15:18,300 --> 00:15:21,700
Joel is able to be Joel.
Again the medpac we needed the
284
00:15:21,700 --> 00:15:23,300
medpac.
Yeah but I'm glad it.
285
00:15:23,500 --> 00:15:26,100
It happened because I was
thinking up to the scene.
286
00:15:26,100 --> 00:15:28,300
I was like how how is this going
to happen?
287
00:15:28,300 --> 00:15:30,200
Like how is she going to get the
medicine from them?
288
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,500
So I'm glad that David was good
on his promise for that, but the
289
00:15:34,500 --> 00:15:40,300
conversation is so weird.
We find out that he didn't find
290
00:15:40,300 --> 00:15:44,700
God until after the apocalypse.
But then, he also kind of talks
291
00:15:44,700 --> 00:15:48,800
about how, you know, he was a
violent person before this like,
292
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,300
he had a violent heart.
He's the same way as Ellie.
293
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:57,100
So it's very Durning that that's
that he divulges, this
294
00:15:57,100 --> 00:15:58,400
information.
I don't know if he's just trying
295
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,400
to connect with her, because he
thinks that he sees that in her
296
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,300
or they're similar.
Well, it feels a little bit
297
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,300
like, well, don't forget, he
knows he already knows who
298
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:10,300
Elias.
Oh, my God, right, when he
299
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:11,400
revealed that.
Yeah.
300
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,400
So you're so he's trying to keep
her calm.
301
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,400
He's trying to get her trust
waiting for James to come back.
302
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,500
Exactly.
So he knows exactly what he's
303
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:20,100
doing.
I mean, the thing is, is that
304
00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:23,300
You know, she I think she said
something to him like what are
305
00:16:23,300 --> 00:16:25,300
you a cult?
And I don't think he knows
306
00:16:25,300 --> 00:16:28,500
necessarily denies it.
He just said basic bible stuff.
307
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:31,200
Yeah.
So and so, don't forget with a
308
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,500
lot of cult leaders, they're
very charismatic and they have
309
00:16:34,500 --> 00:16:37,000
to win people over and he's
playing that game with her and
310
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,000
he has the thing that everybody
needs.
311
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,100
So they're very much dependent
on him and he plays into that,
312
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:43,500
right?
Yeah.
313
00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:46,800
It's very cold tea.
Yeah, cannibal called you can't
314
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:48,600
know.
The place is bad.
315
00:16:49,300 --> 00:16:50,900
It is not like the winter
Resort.
316
00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:53,300
I want to go to you guys are in
a winter Resort.
317
00:16:53,300 --> 00:16:57,900
Like there's no, like be nice.
Don't eat each other.
318
00:16:59,300 --> 00:17:03,000
Yeah, there's people are there,
they're miserable they're just
319
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,000
running these herbal and you
know, I don't know.
320
00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:08,500
I don't know.
I keep going back to Tommy
321
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:11,000
because it's like how did they
figure it out?
322
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,700
Communism.
There you go.
323
00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:13,500
That's the answer.
Yeah.
324
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:16,300
And they also had Maria running
it.
325
00:17:16,300 --> 00:17:20,800
Like, I mean, come on the can't
have this freaking dude running
326
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,800
it because obviously just thinks
the E people.
327
00:17:22,900 --> 00:17:27,500
I do that was once maybe my
literature some way but also
328
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:28,900
math teacher.
Well that's your know.
329
00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:31,400
Number one, watch out that Math
teachers.
330
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:38,200
Yeah, okay no offense any the
Math teachers oh yeah the scene,
331
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,600
where Elly find the gets back to
Joel, she escapes for a minute
332
00:17:43,300 --> 00:17:47,400
gets back to Joel.
I loved the realistic approach
333
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,400
to her.
Being like, I don't know where
334
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,900
to put this medicine into the
wound.
335
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,600
Yeah, I guess like, it seemed to
work.
336
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,300
I was, I'm just thinking, like,
I'm like, does she have to Find
337
00:17:59,300 --> 00:18:02,500
a vein what's happening?
But yeah into the wound Works.
338
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,900
Although no and I are both
allergic to penicillin.
339
00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:08,400
So we were watching this going.
That would have been banned.
340
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,700
Yeah.
And he had for us what if he was
341
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:12,100
too?
And he couldn't he didn't have
342
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:15,500
enough energy to tell her don't.
Dude I have a cylinder and I
343
00:18:15,500 --> 00:18:18,800
kept thinking like how many
milligrams does she know to put
344
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,400
it on?
Just like half, right?
345
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,800
Half the needle, that's fine.
The syringe is huge.
346
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,200
She's like half of it.
I, you know, you just can't
347
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,600
think.
I you know, and those moments
348
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,200
you can't.
Me thinking about that stuff.
349
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,500
You just have to act its
aggressive therapy.
350
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,600
Yeah antibiotics lie.
But yeah she got two injections
351
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,900
then and it seemed like that's
all that was needed to doses.
352
00:18:39,900 --> 00:18:41,200
Yeah.
Oh my God.
353
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,200
Okay.
Okay.
354
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,900
Cannibal seen.
We have we have to mention it
355
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:51,200
which one?
Well the one thus to 1 this 2 1
356
00:18:51,900 --> 00:18:53,800
so they're not even back with
the deer yet.
357
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,500
We see that they have a whole
bucket of meat which is a big
358
00:18:56,500 --> 00:18:58,900
red flag because they just said
they didn't have meat.
359
00:18:59,100 --> 00:19:02,100
It was funny because I'm
watching going like, wow, they
360
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:04,200
really chop that deer up real
quick.
361
00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:07,300
Nope.
No, they didn't get back yet.
362
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,300
He very select.
Few people know about the
363
00:19:11,308 --> 00:19:16,600
cannibalism and eating the dead
and every thing, the fact that
364
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:22,800
this man, not only slapped the
shit out of the daughter of the
365
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,200
person, they're about to eat so
hard that she flies off her
366
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,900
chair but then watches, Her eat
her father.
367
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,400
And then how about the fact that
he has the biggest plate?
368
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:35,600
Yeah.
Like you.
369
00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:38,200
So, obviously, you know, it's
messed up because he got more
370
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,300
food than everyone because he's
the leader or whatever.
371
00:19:40,300 --> 00:19:43,000
Let's talk about portions.
But seriously, these people were
372
00:19:43,008 --> 00:19:46,600
like, scraping the ball after
two spoonfuls, but he's sitting
373
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,900
there eating a giant mound of
her dad.
374
00:19:48,900 --> 00:19:51,500
Looking at her smiling.
Yeah, dude.
375
00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:57,100
Is not okay, he's not great.
It's Great though, for
376
00:19:57,100 --> 00:20:01,800
television a story because he's
like, the most clear-cut
377
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,500
villain.
We've had this entire time.
378
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,000
He's bad, he's Bad News Bears.
He's not great agreed.
379
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,800
The Bears are indeed bad.
Yeah, news when he, when he goes
380
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,900
back and says that we found the
people that killed Alec, we're
381
00:20:15,900 --> 00:20:19,300
going to bring a search party
together to go find her, they do
382
00:20:19,300 --> 00:20:22,400
find her, they find her and
unfortunately, one of the
383
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,300
saddest casualties of the season
is Calais.
384
00:20:25,900 --> 00:20:29,500
Horse.
How dare like he y'all good boy.
385
00:20:29,500 --> 00:20:33,000
Y'all this episode though, they
were like guess what?
386
00:20:33,300 --> 00:20:34,900
Dear dead?
Guess what?
387
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,300
Eating humans.
Another thing gonna shoot this
388
00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:39,200
horse.
What is happening?
389
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,900
I'm I am so like, too many
things are dying.
390
00:20:42,900 --> 00:20:46,400
They can't deal with it.
Well, we have one more episode,
391
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,800
so, oh my God.
Now, they're just going to be
392
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,900
killing dogs.
Just know, right.
393
00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:54,100
Never they don't kill dogs.
Yes, that's, that's crossing a
394
00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:55,600
line.
Callus, the horse.
395
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,400
Yes, yes.
Dogs know that horse did such a
396
00:20:58,408 --> 00:21:01,400
good job?
Yeah it was so sad.
397
00:21:01,700 --> 00:21:07,700
The moment that she's caught is
very Upsetting because it's I
398
00:21:07,700 --> 00:21:10,400
feel like one of the first
moments because we've seen
399
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,500
flashbacks in the Riley episode.
We knew that what she was going
400
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:18,300
through isn't futile, because
receive her in the present.
401
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,100
This one.
It's it's so much loss of
402
00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:23,500
control.
It's so much, like what?
403
00:21:23,500 --> 00:21:27,100
Like Joel is down there.
Your protector.
404
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,300
You're by yourself with men
surrounding you.
405
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,700
It's terrifying.
And James is an interesting
406
00:21:34,700 --> 00:21:38,000
character.
In this that he had no problem,
407
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,000
wanting to kill her.
And I don't know if it's because
408
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,200
he actually believed that it's
another mouth to feed, or he
409
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,700
just wanted Vengeance for
killing Alec.
410
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:51,200
I also think there's something
to be said about James knowing
411
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,500
more about David than maybe some
of the others.
412
00:21:53,500 --> 00:21:57,600
Do I think that in that decision
in that moment?
413
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,200
I think it's Vengeance mouths to
feed and I also think it's sort
414
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,700
of a thought of saving this girl
from him.
415
00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:05,800
Yeah, I got that.
I got that a little A bit too.
416
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,900
Like he almost didn't like it
would be better if he just put
417
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:12,600
her out of her misery and stead
of subjecting her to David
418
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:17,400
Wright which is like guys if you
don't like there's more of you
419
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,300
than him come on.
But I'm but that's the thing
420
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:22,500
though.
I mean like that is the that is
421
00:22:22,500 --> 00:22:26,200
the thing about cults.
How does one person gain control
422
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:29,600
over so many times hundreds of
people?
423
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,600
Yeah it's amazing and like
you're saying it's like but it's
424
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,200
one person.
How does one person I don't
425
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,100
know.
It's just Humanity.
426
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,200
Yeah, in a time of need, we for
some reason, need that one
427
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,100
person to look to even if
they're extremely flawed when
428
00:22:45,100 --> 00:22:50,200
were in need like today, there's
no, don't do it.
429
00:22:50,300 --> 00:22:57,100
The cage scene with David is
probably one of my I think that
430
00:22:57,100 --> 00:22:58,600
the rest of this episode.
So they're going to the
431
00:22:58,608 --> 00:23:02,600
climactic ending and everything.
I think it's one of my favorite
432
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,500
parts of this season so far.
Because one, they didn't hold
433
00:23:06,500 --> 00:23:08,800
back.
They really went full force into
434
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,000
just this violent raw
conversation, and explosive
435
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,500
climax, but also it was shot
really well.
436
00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:19,500
And this like, okay saying it
again.
437
00:23:19,700 --> 00:23:25,300
Bella Ramsey, if she does not
get an award of some sort like
438
00:23:25,300 --> 00:23:28,700
any award like HBO should just
make one up for her.
439
00:23:29,100 --> 00:23:31,900
It's just phenomenal, it's so
good.
440
00:23:32,100 --> 00:23:36,100
The way that these characters
play off of each And you can see
441
00:23:36,100 --> 00:23:37,400
this moment with her where she
is.
442
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,800
Very scared.
She's backing away from the gate
443
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,300
or the fence and David's trying
to get, get to her, trying to
444
00:23:43,300 --> 00:23:46,700
peel back the layers a little
bit but then I think she sees
445
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:50,500
that she might be able to play
it a little bit and she starts
446
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,400
getting closer to him and that's
when things get a little more
447
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,000
icky than I thought they could
have been.
448
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:02,700
It's not fun.
Yeah, and I think this again,
449
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:04,800
that's this scene.
Illustrates the thing I was
450
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,500
talking about.
Before our sort of the push and
451
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:09,000
pull between them.
One of the things I really loved
452
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,300
was the blocking of this seemed
like you were saying.
453
00:24:11,500 --> 00:24:14,900
And for that the first few
moments it really was like, they
454
00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:19,000
were like ends of a magnet where
the closer he would try to get
455
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,300
there.
She would push away from him.
456
00:24:20,300 --> 00:24:23,600
And she kept tangling herself so
that she was nowhere near him.
457
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,700
Because, in a way she really was
a caged animal, and she was
458
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,300
ready to lash out, but she knew
that she had to plan her strike.
459
00:24:32,300 --> 00:24:35,600
Well, yeah.
And so when she saw him, Again
460
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,300
trying to groom her trying to
bring her in, trying to convince
461
00:24:38,300 --> 00:24:40,900
her to be a part of the, their,
their group.
462
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,600
She knew that she could lean
into that and use it against
463
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,700
him.
Yeah, the, the moment of, you
464
00:24:46,700 --> 00:24:49,400
know, you think that he's just
trying to recruit her right and
465
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,300
just join the cult, your
violent, just like me.
466
00:24:51,300 --> 00:24:55,300
He says a violent heart, which I
think no Craig Mazin and Inside
467
00:24:55,300 --> 00:24:58,400
the episode of your watch, it, I
like what he said about that
468
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,900
because of violent heart is a
line that they, they added to
469
00:25:01,900 --> 00:25:04,900
this and it almost describes
Ellie and how you feel about her
470
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:08,200
and he said you loved her but
you're also terrified of her.
471
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,100
Hmm.
And that really sums up Ellie as
472
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:11,200
a whole.
Yeah.
473
00:25:11,300 --> 00:25:15,000
And he's saying that he relates
to that and you can see that.
474
00:25:15,100 --> 00:25:16,400
Yeah.
Because he does have the
475
00:25:16,700 --> 00:25:18,900
Charisma.
He does have that warmth ohm us
476
00:25:18,900 --> 00:25:24,000
and it seems like at first he
does care for the people but
477
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,800
then there's those nasty dark
parts that he wants to show and
478
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,400
private and people are at their
most vulnerable.
479
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:35,500
I feel like Ellie and this
episode is is in the center of
480
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:39,300
sort of this Venn diagram.
And on one side is David and on
481
00:25:39,300 --> 00:25:42,800
the other side is Joel and David
is sort of well Joel is like
482
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,000
chaotic good and David is
chaotic evil.
483
00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:49,600
And in this episode, it's kind
of like she's going back and
484
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,300
forth between what kind of chaos
she's going to be in the world.
485
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:58,100
Yeah because as we know Joel now
yes we know his past was he did
486
00:25:58,100 --> 00:26:03,000
some bad things but he exists in
this plane of chaos but for for
487
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,300
good.
Now now, whereas David is chaos
488
00:26:06,300 --> 00:26:11,200
but bad and so we CLE sort of
like swerving in between these
489
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,100
two things because it almost
seems like she has both facets.
490
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:17,800
Yeah, of those two people but
it's like which way she going to
491
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,200
end up leaning and that's sort
of the question.
492
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:23,400
Yeah.
And it will be interesting to
493
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:29,700
see how they continue her art,
because she does she's violent.
494
00:26:29,700 --> 00:26:34,900
And she, I think that she sees
the The toll that it took on
495
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:38,600
Joel and she feels that by the
end of this episode but how she
496
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:42,300
deals with that and how Joel
cares for her after that is
497
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:46,000
really going to be the deciding
factor between if she's going to
498
00:26:46,008 --> 00:26:50,100
go more David side, obviously
not totally David side but just
499
00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:54,500
more violent and violent or more
healing and dealing with it and
500
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,300
a little bit more of an
appropriate way.
501
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:59,300
Sure with Joel.
It's like, it's like violence
502
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,500
for good to create good in a
way.
503
00:27:03,700 --> 00:27:07,200
Violence to get rid of bad
people or violence to just be
504
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,800
evil violence well in their
control, the survivability
505
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,800
factor of this world that
they're in.
506
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,100
Now the violence is a thing that
is always going to have solutely
507
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,500
and you're going to need to do
it.
508
00:27:17,500 --> 00:27:20,300
Unfortunately because there are
the David's there, there's the
509
00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:23,900
Kathleen's.
Doesn't mean that you seek that
510
00:27:23,900 --> 00:27:26,800
out.
And that's really where David
511
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,300
falters in that.
I mean, the moral compass is
512
00:27:29,300 --> 00:27:32,300
completely shattered, and I
think that in, those contests is
513
00:27:32,300 --> 00:27:34,600
just spinning.
Yeah, it's not a compass
514
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,000
anymore.
It's just a nice decorative
515
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,400
thing.
That doesn't give a shit, it's
516
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,700
exploded.
Yeah, they're pretty.
517
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:44,100
I mean, they're kind of, like
morality is not necessarily a
518
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,400
thing as we know it, you know,
in real life where there's like,
519
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,700
sort of, you know, I think a lot
of times there's black, there's
520
00:27:49,700 --> 00:27:52,600
white, there's gray, but it just
feels like There's nothing in
521
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:57,000
this Society.
Yes right it's not morality is
522
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,000
something that you don't really
have time to think about in a
523
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,300
lot of situations because it's
either you actor they act it's
524
00:28:03,300 --> 00:28:07,400
almost in the instances like
Joel and the episode where he
525
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,700
decided to carrot keep going for
Ellie that's almost the
526
00:28:10,700 --> 00:28:14,900
instances where morality is
showing itself and where you
527
00:28:14,900 --> 00:28:17,500
feel that tug like, okay, this
is the right thing to do.
528
00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:19,700
I should be doing this, I
shouldn't subject.
529
00:28:19,700 --> 00:28:23,800
My brother that is going to be
Having a baby to go on this
530
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,400
journey, right?
Yeah, totally.
531
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,500
Yeah, so, I mean, The cage seen
the moment that he puts his
532
00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:34,000
hands on the rail.
Yeah.
533
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:36,900
And she kind of goes in there
but then he kind of Cups him a
534
00:28:36,908 --> 00:28:40,600
little bit.
I just like that those things I
535
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,300
don't like in any horror that I
read I don't like the it's like
536
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:49,000
a child wife type situation.
Like you really got that feeling
537
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,900
from him and it's just so
uncomfortable, obviously it
538
00:28:51,900 --> 00:28:56,400
should be but like the links
that this dude is trying to go
539
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,200
He just met her.
What?
540
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,600
Like I mean I don't know her.
Yeah it's this.
541
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:02,700
That's the thing.
I think.
542
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:07,800
That's so sort of gross about it
is that he just immediately see.
543
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,300
He's like a predator and she is
pray.
544
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,900
Yeah.
And and he's just immediately
545
00:29:12,900 --> 00:29:15,800
ready to to attack.
Yeah.
546
00:29:15,900 --> 00:29:18,100
And it's disgusting.
Yeah.
547
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:22,200
It's disgusting and layered on
top of the cannibalism and and,
548
00:29:22,300 --> 00:29:26,700
and Ellie again is 14 and we're
seeing her half.
549
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:30,500
Have like, put all these puzzle
pieces together and look at the
550
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:34,500
picture and then figure out how
to get out of the picture.
551
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,300
I think the moment that she
realized that it's not going to
552
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:42,500
go well like she has to get out
and get back to Joel is when she
553
00:29:42,500 --> 00:29:46,500
asked about her friend in this
scene and you know he's like if
554
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:49,400
you do this do this you know,
whatever you can come and we
555
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,200
will be fine.
And she was like and my friend
556
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,900
and he was like well we'll see
like he hesitated that and
557
00:29:53,900 --> 00:29:56,700
that's when I think she was
like, okay, it's not going.
558
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,800
Go.
Well, like I can't, if Joel
559
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,800
doesn't make it out of this
alive, if I can't protect him, I
560
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,900
can't be here and I need to get
out, right?
561
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,900
And she tries, she tries so
hard.
562
00:30:05,900 --> 00:30:08,800
She almost get those keys.
She she's like breaks his
563
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,200
finger.
She tries to get those keys.
564
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:16,400
He slammed her head into thin,
the bars multiple times.
565
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:21,000
And one of the coolest things
that she has said this entire
566
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,700
season so far, and she says her
name, and then she was, like,
567
00:30:24,700 --> 00:30:28,800
tell them the little girl Ellie.
The one that broke your finger
568
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,800
so good.
Oh my gosh.
569
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,300
So, good talk about aligned
delivered.
570
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:39,400
Yeah, and like from this point,
I mean her her acting throughout
571
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,400
her performance throughout the
entire episode is so good.
572
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:48,300
But from from the cage on out,
it's just watching a
573
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:53,400
transformation.
So Mellie suspenseful so 10, so
574
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,600
full of Rage.
So full of Rage.
575
00:30:55,700 --> 00:31:00,500
I mean it's just Just so good.
These are the, these are the
576
00:31:00,500 --> 00:31:04,200
scenes that they had to nail for
this show to be successful
577
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,100
because they could have easily
just did it.
578
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,600
Mmm and didn't really sit with
it or didn't really go to that
579
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,600
extreme because we haven't
really gotten infected.
580
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,200
I mean we got infected in the
last one but it was a flashback
581
00:31:15,700 --> 00:31:17,500
and they said that they were
going.
582
00:31:17,500 --> 00:31:19,900
It's going to be sparse, the
violence is going to be sparse,
583
00:31:19,900 --> 00:31:22,500
and when it does happen, it's
going to mean something.
584
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,600
And they delivered in this
episode, this episode was very
585
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,500
Ellen, tweet, I mean, just
talking about the violence.
586
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:34,300
So our friend, Joel, he does
wake up in the basement and he
587
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:37,300
takes two of these guys hostage
and does.
588
00:31:37,300 --> 00:31:41,000
Some does some things that had
me closing my eyes, but going
589
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,400
like, no, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, this scene is is very
590
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:50,200
Infamous with the having him
Mark where they are and where
591
00:31:50,500 --> 00:31:53,900
Elly is on the map with the
knife that he just pulled out of
592
00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:56,100
the guys knee.
He's pissed.
593
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,200
He's so, So pissed.
And this is a glimpse of the
594
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,700
Joel that was before Ellie.
Hmm.
595
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,100
Like this is Rage.
Joel and there's there's
596
00:32:05,100 --> 00:32:09,400
something to be said about
Joel's anger that it's not only
597
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,200
at the outside, you know,
forces.
598
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,600
But it's also I think a lot of
internal anger, you know.
599
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,300
I think it's that thing of.
How did I let her get away?
600
00:32:19,300 --> 00:32:21,300
How did I get hurt?
Hospital has happened.
601
00:32:21,300 --> 00:32:24,100
Yeah, yeah.
And so that that's a big driving
602
00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:28,500
force in all of this is his own.
GE towards him getting hurt or
603
00:32:28,500 --> 00:32:31,700
making a bad decision and he's
not and he's willing to do
604
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:33,400
whatever it takes to to save
her.
605
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:38,600
Yeah, I love the again, the role
reversal of this episode, you
606
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,700
expect him to save her, you
expect.
607
00:32:40,700 --> 00:32:43,100
Because that's what's been
happening this entire time,
608
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,300
leading up to when Joel finally
get reunited with Ellie him,
609
00:32:48,300 --> 00:32:51,200
seeing the trail of blood,
seeing the back rack, seeing the
610
00:32:51,208 --> 00:32:54,600
bodies I mean, just like
thinking about what he must be
611
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,400
thinking and that moment and He
still even though he doesn't
612
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,700
know if she's dead or not or
where she is or what happened to
613
00:33:00,700 --> 00:33:04,000
her, he still grabs her backpack
and he's like, I'm gonna find
614
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,500
her like she's going to be okay.
I'm gonna find her.
615
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:09,500
It's just yeah.
Like I'm so sorry guys.
616
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,800
I'm so sorry for these two
characters I dislike you know I
617
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,500
did when she fell off the horse,
her backpack goes flying and I
618
00:33:17,500 --> 00:33:20,200
was like glue off those like
know her pun book.
619
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,900
She needs her pun book and then
she got it back.
620
00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:24,600
Don't do got her backpack for
her.
621
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,800
Yeah.
So Okay, the fight between David
622
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:34,900
and la so terrifying.
It was probably one of the
623
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:39,400
scenes that felt the most like
the game because you see, David
624
00:33:39,500 --> 00:33:43,800
trying to lure her at taunting
saying, things, taunting her.
625
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,200
And she's trying to hide.
She's hiding behind things.
626
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,200
She's running to the other side.
Ouch crouch, crouch.
627
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,200
Exactly.
It's like, oh my God, what is
628
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,700
going to happen?
Lights the place on fire.
629
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,300
Amazing backdrop.
I mean, yeah, why not?
630
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:58,800
Good luck with your shell?
For now, you stupid son of a
631
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:05,400
bitch but the moment where he
does get the upper hand a little
632
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,000
bit and it seems like he's about
to assault her in a different
633
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:14,500
way, which is like going to yet.
Like dude I mean just one the
634
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:18,699
place is burning down like
that's how awful.
635
00:34:18,699 --> 00:34:22,300
This guy is a piece of shit.
I mean, can't even have that
636
00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:25,699
awareness of like your guys are
gonna die.
637
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,500
Well, he's so Hell-bent on,
just, you know, look, yeah.
638
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,100
And Harvey.
She gets the upper hand with
639
00:34:32,100 --> 00:34:36,699
that, meat cleaver, the same one
that killed, that killed saddled
640
00:34:36,699 --> 00:34:39,100
James.
But oh, man.
641
00:34:39,100 --> 00:34:44,600
And she goes in, she all the
rage, everything just pours out
642
00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:47,500
on to David's face with the meat
cleaver.
643
00:34:47,500 --> 00:34:51,600
I had this moment when she was
laying into him like that, where
644
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,900
I first I was like, yes, get
him, get him, but then as it
645
00:34:54,900 --> 00:34:56,600
kept going you're like wait a
minute.
646
00:34:56,699 --> 00:34:58,600
Minute.
This means something more this
647
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,400
because I feel like in a lot of
movies or television shows.
648
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,400
When a scene like this happens,
the person leaves in like, yeah,
649
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,700
I did it.
It's been awesome but you could
650
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:10,400
see in this moment that
something else is happening.
651
00:35:10,500 --> 00:35:14,400
Yeah, that there is she has
crossed a line that she's never
652
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,500
going to be able to back back
away from.
653
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,800
I mean, look at, you know, first
time she really killed, somebody
654
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:24,200
was to save Joel and it was a
moment that she had to act right
655
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:25,800
then and there and she brushed
It Off.
656
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,200
In this one, the amount of
things that she's having to do
657
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,100
she's faced with so much
violence and actually being the
658
00:35:34,100 --> 00:35:38,100
one to carry it out and so much
different than somebody
659
00:35:38,100 --> 00:35:40,300
protecting you and doing it for
you.
660
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,800
And she's seeing that firsthand
and for her to just not be able
661
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,300
to stop when clearly he's done.
I think by like whack too, he's
662
00:35:49,300 --> 00:35:54,600
probably done, but then after
17, there's something changing
663
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:59,100
this characters changing their
Into something that could go one
664
00:35:59,100 --> 00:36:00,700
way or the other.
Mhm.
665
00:36:00,700 --> 00:36:03,200
And when she gets out and she
gets out of that Lodge.
666
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:08,600
And she just like, Nothing, like
she's obviously terrified, and
667
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,900
she like, but she's like, she's
just going, she just needs to
668
00:36:11,908 --> 00:36:13,800
go.
Yeah, she just starts walking.
669
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,700
She's out like autopilot
autopilot?
670
00:36:16,700 --> 00:36:20,900
Yeah, he's just out of there,
Joel finding her and she
671
00:36:20,900 --> 00:36:23,500
freaking out because she doesn't
know, just she's just who has me
672
00:36:23,500 --> 00:36:25,000
now.
Yeah, rage mode.
673
00:36:25,500 --> 00:36:29,700
Ah, she goes in for that hug and
he cried, I cried cried.
674
00:36:29,700 --> 00:36:33,000
And it's hard to talk about this
because it's so good.
675
00:36:33,100 --> 00:36:36,800
They did it in such a way where
you're like, oh my God, like
676
00:36:37,500 --> 00:36:40,400
this wasn't just the person
overcoming, the enemy.
677
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,300
This is more.
This is this is the true loss of
678
00:36:43,300 --> 00:36:45,300
Innocence, this is it.
It's over.
679
00:36:45,300 --> 00:36:49,700
She has fully crossed over into
being an adult at 14 years old.
680
00:36:49,700 --> 00:36:52,200
There is nothing that can take
her back from this.
681
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:56,600
Yeah, her saying he tried and
then him stopping her because he
682
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,400
knows he knows that anything
that was in there.
683
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,400
You didn't deserve any of it.
Yeah.
684
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,800
And you don't need to tell me
right now and he just holds her
685
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:09,500
and says baby girl, which he
hasn't said since Sarah and I
686
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:14,500
love the shot, I sad shot, but I
love when it shows her back.
687
00:37:14,700 --> 00:37:17,400
He's holding her.
And the watch is really the
688
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:23,500
center of that shot, and it's
just man and he's, he's fully
689
00:37:23,500 --> 00:37:27,800
developing into this, she's not
cargo anymore, she is more than
690
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,700
that and she's developing into
rage.
691
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,800
Yeah, violence and experiencing
that.
692
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,800
And but it's nice to see her
want Joel.
693
00:37:37,900 --> 00:37:42,000
Well, I mean, at the, at the end
of it all, that's what she went
694
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,900
through.
All this for me to save him, You
695
00:37:44,900 --> 00:37:48,100
know, and you know, we've been
talking a lot about morality in
696
00:37:48,100 --> 00:37:52,400
this episode but I think even
though she has all this rage her
697
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,900
her moral compass points, her to
knowing that this is a good
698
00:37:55,900 --> 00:37:57,600
person.
This is a person.
699
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,400
I have to save.
This is a person who means a lot
700
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,800
to me and she can identify with
right?
701
00:38:01,900 --> 00:38:04,500
Yeah.
And so that bond is what is
702
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:07,200
driving her what drove her
through this entire episode and
703
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,100
that bond is also.
What drove Joel through the
704
00:38:10,100 --> 00:38:15,200
second half of this episode they
are forever bonded now It's gone
705
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,700
past like you said cargo.
It's a father and a daughter.
706
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:19,600
Yeah.
Yeah.
707
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,400
Which is beautiful to see.
It's unfortunate that we have to
708
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,800
see it in these circumstances.
I just wish they'd stay in
709
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,600
Jackson.
You know, just stay with them,
710
00:38:30,700 --> 00:38:34,100
but there is the question.
I don't think we talk about it
711
00:38:34,100 --> 00:38:37,300
that much, and I don't think
it's really brought up that much
712
00:38:37,300 --> 00:38:39,800
in the show because so much
stuff happens.
713
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:44,500
Is she has to save everybody.
Yeah, like she still has that.
714
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:49,200
That responsibility, the hope
that this could possibly be the
715
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,300
thing to save the world.
But there's also that question
716
00:38:52,300 --> 00:38:57,100
of ok, a cure can be made.
Then what?
717
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,000
Right.
How do you rebuild a world that
718
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:06,300
knew what it was before and has
grown to the after I do you do
719
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:09,100
that?
Like is there a I'm real quick.
720
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:11,800
I just want to know, is there a
story that anybody knows of like
721
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:17,200
a book or whatever of a The
rebuilding after that because I
722
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,300
don't I can't think of one.
Well actually.
723
00:39:19,300 --> 00:39:24,300
Now I haven't read the book
World War Z but the movie World
724
00:39:24,300 --> 00:39:27,700
War Z took a lot of Liberties.
I believe of what actually World
725
00:39:27,700 --> 00:39:30,400
War Z was about and the Book
World War Z.
726
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,600
I'm pretty sure is actually
about rebuilding the world after
727
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,300
the spread zombies.
Interesting.
728
00:39:37,300 --> 00:39:39,300
I did hear that.
It was very different from the
729
00:39:39,300 --> 00:39:41,500
book and they focused on like
one story.
730
00:39:41,500 --> 00:39:43,300
Yeah.
When there was more than that
731
00:39:43,300 --> 00:39:45,700
but that's interesting I might
have To actually read that at
732
00:39:45,700 --> 00:39:46,400
some point.
Yeah.
733
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,000
Because it's very, I mean, I
really like the movie, but I
734
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:53,000
remember I remember hearing that
it was the, it really was not
735
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,500
the storyline of the book.
Purse a good movie though.
736
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:59,900
I love that movie, so good.
But I do think that like I yeah,
737
00:39:59,900 --> 00:40:03,900
I wonder like, Okay.
So let's say we get Ellie's
738
00:40:03,900 --> 00:40:07,000
blood, we don't know, spin it
around a bit and then we have
739
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,900
the Cure.
I think there's more than that.
740
00:40:08,900 --> 00:40:13,100
But yeah, like it's like, what
are you gonna do for the
741
00:40:13,100 --> 00:40:16,100
thousands of people?
Hundreds of thousands of people
742
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:18,400
that are zombies already.
Like, that's not going to fix
743
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,200
that problem.
Well, I think it would make it
744
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,000
easier to be able to exterminate
that bit.
745
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,300
You could yeah yourself.
Before you wouldn't.
746
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:28,800
Yeah, you wouldn't change.
So because that's the thing
747
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,800
about and that's what separates
it from some other zombie
748
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,400
things.
You know, Walking Dead.
749
00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:36,900
Everybody's infected already
because when you die, you turn
750
00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:39,800
into a zombie, right?
This one, you can die but as
751
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,600
long as you didn't get infected
or bitten, your fine.
752
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,700
Yeah.
I mean, so I don't know.
753
00:40:47,700 --> 00:40:49,900
I, it's interesting.
It's an interesting thought to
754
00:40:49,900 --> 00:40:53,200
think about because this world
and we see the Kathleen's, we
755
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,800
see the David's, we see how the
Koozies work we see Federer, and
756
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:01,000
it's like, can it rebuild?
I mean, it's going to be so
757
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,900
fracture, right?
Absolutely wouldn't be States
758
00:41:04,900 --> 00:41:07,800
how they were, you know, hey
guys, we found the thing.
759
00:41:07,900 --> 00:41:10,800
Oops, we killed you like, like
it would just be Marlon and
760
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,000
florins just being the best
people and fine.
761
00:41:14,300 --> 00:41:16,100
I'm telling you, we need that
spin-off.
762
00:41:16,100 --> 00:41:18,900
I think they need to make a
bonus episode of this season of
763
00:41:18,900 --> 00:41:21,600
just the two of them.
So we could all just breathe for
764
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,100
a little bit.
Yeah.
765
00:41:23,100 --> 00:41:28,400
Just an episode of their life
being delightful and that cabin
766
00:41:28,900 --> 00:41:31,300
we need to decompress.
Yeah, we really do.
767
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:37,900
I mean, this episode being as
awful as it was for television
768
00:41:37,900 --> 00:41:40,000
and four-story sake, really
good.
769
00:41:40,300 --> 00:41:44,200
It's just, it's what makes this
property and what made this.
770
00:41:44,900 --> 00:41:47,900
Video game so good because of
the way.
771
00:41:47,900 --> 00:41:50,700
It's written.
Mmm, and it's not just, oh,
772
00:41:50,700 --> 00:41:54,800
there's a cannibal This is not
just that it's so multi-layered
773
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:58,100
than that that I just so you
know I think there's also
774
00:41:58,100 --> 00:42:02,700
another layer of this that is
creepy is that they spend like
775
00:42:03,100 --> 00:42:05,500
you know the big storyline
throughout this is that they
776
00:42:05,500 --> 00:42:09,700
spend time hoping not to get
bitten by other humans and then
777
00:42:09,700 --> 00:42:12,600
this group of people is
willingly eating other humans.
778
00:42:12,700 --> 00:42:16,400
Yeah I mean she almost saved
herself when they were about to
779
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,100
chop her up and she's like I'm
infected mmm.
780
00:42:19,100 --> 00:42:21,300
Which you know don't tell people
that you were bitten and
781
00:42:21,300 --> 00:42:23,400
infected because we have the
safe Flee, get you to the
782
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,300
Firefly this what that was her
last resort that you have only
783
00:42:26,300 --> 00:42:28,800
thing she had to use at that
point and I'm curious.
784
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,800
I mean, I would assume that if
somebody is in fact, it and
785
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,000
somebody ate infected meat, I
would assume that they would get
786
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:40,600
infected but also so she's I
mean is she technically infected
787
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,300
She Was Bitten.
Yeah.
788
00:42:42,300 --> 00:42:44,900
Doesn't have the effects of the
infection but if she bites
789
00:42:44,900 --> 00:42:51,300
someone, do they get infected?
Oh, um, well you know I don't
790
00:42:51,300 --> 00:42:55,200
know, maybe not Maybe it will,
it's probably one of the so you
791
00:42:55,207 --> 00:42:56,700
guys, I'm not a scientist, I
don't know.
792
00:42:56,700 --> 00:43:00,400
I'm not like, I don't know, I'm
not a disease ologist and stuff
793
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,600
like that, but like these are
you would think that everybody
794
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,200
would be after the pandemic.
But no, no, I mean it's probably
795
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,500
one of those things where it's
in her, but it's not active,
796
00:43:09,700 --> 00:43:11,600
it's like HPV.
Yeah.
797
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:16,500
But so I mean, because the
readers that show, if you're
798
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:20,000
infected or not shows that she
is infected, so, whatever it's
799
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,500
reading, it could still show
that.
800
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:24,000
She's so very early.
Sure, but she might not be able
801
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,800
to pass it.
Meow, I guess.
802
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,200
No, I guess.
Yeah, Neil druckmann.
803
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,100
Tell us.
Hello.
804
00:43:34,700 --> 00:43:36,600
We're asking a very important
question.
805
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,100
How about this?
Ebenbolter, if you're listening
806
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:43,800
to this text Neil druckmann and
then tell him to go onto
807
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:44,700
Twitter.
Yeah.
808
00:43:44,700 --> 00:43:46,600
And at a bite of pot.
Yes.
809
00:43:47,100 --> 00:43:49,300
An answer.
Although he bites somebody.
810
00:43:49,700 --> 00:43:52,200
Do they become infected
important?
811
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,900
This is an important question.
Yeah.
812
00:43:53,900 --> 00:43:55,700
Or if anybody knows, just
comment below.
813
00:43:55,700 --> 00:43:57,700
Yeah.
Comment below.
814
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:06,800
So we have one more episode
left, one more episode and it
815
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,400
looks to be a lot.
I've heard I heard that it's
816
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,100
like 45 minutes really?
Which makes it like the
817
00:44:13,100 --> 00:44:15,400
shortest.
I think it seems like two hours.
818
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,800
No like wild crazy to me.
We're supposed to get fireflies
819
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,200
again because that's the end of
the first game.
820
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:27,200
Apparently, they're adding Anna,
who is Ellie's mom into this?
821
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,800
Played by the voice actor, that
voice Telly.
822
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,300
That's so cool.
So cool.
823
00:44:31,700 --> 00:44:36,000
And also, the journey to get to
the Firefly, so it had to be
824
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,600
five minutes.
Yeah, it's gonna be bam, bam,
825
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:39,800
bam.
Yeah, yeah.
826
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:45,000
And I believe Bella Ramsey said
that the season finale is going
827
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,600
to divide people dramatically.
It's going to be such a
828
00:44:48,607 --> 00:44:50,100
cliffhanger.
I know it.
829
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,500
I got is going to be brutal.
I mean, Imagine we're going to
830
00:44:53,500 --> 00:44:56,400
have like we're going to wait
two years for season 2.
831
00:44:56,700 --> 00:45:00,500
I'm going to be like please show
the last season on the Last of
832
00:45:00,500 --> 00:45:02,900
Us.
Yeah two years like a remember
833
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,800
or just listen to this podcast
that's true, I'll just set
834
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,500
aside.
Nine hours to listen to us
835
00:45:08,500 --> 00:45:09,900
again.
Oh man.
836
00:45:09,900 --> 00:45:14,100
Alright well next week the
finale this is it.
837
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:19,200
This was the penultimate episode
whoo finale next week and yeah,
838
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:24,300
so hopefully the next thing that
we talked about Will Beyond sad,
839
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,900
fingers crossed, please.
We'll see, and Maids, tale
840
00:45:27,900 --> 00:45:29,700
coming up next.
Oh my gosh.

All three.
Four seasons, and the books.
842
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,800
No.

Yeah.
Okay.

All right.
Yeah.
38
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:19,300
Okay, let's talk.
All right, let's take a look
39
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:24,500
back at The Last of Us.
Episode 7, left behind another
40
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:28,200
jovial, a chapter.
Wait, wait, do we didn't?
41
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,800
We already know.
We didn't, we didn't.
42
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,600
About this already.
Oh, I thought we already talked
43
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,000
about like I know we talked
about it but I forgot we had to
44
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,200
do.
Look, back on that episode.
45
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,800
We talk about it, right?
Yeah, very cool.
46
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,600
I'm saying listen, these,
they're so sad.
47
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,000
They all just blend together.
Did we block an entire week out
48
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,900
of our memories?
That's what it sounds like.
49
00:02:47,900 --> 00:02:52,300
All right, go ahead.
All right, this holy, it's just
50
00:02:52,300 --> 00:02:54,100
so stoked, forget it, whatever
it said.
51
00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:59,400
Okay as Joel lays in a basement
on the brink of death, he tells
52
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,200
a lie to go just as she's about
to leave.
53
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,800
We flash back to her days at the
federal Academy Riley appears
54
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,000
and takes her on a trip to see
the for actually, five
55
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,700
escalators included wonders of
them, all Riley confides in
56
00:03:13,700 --> 00:03:16,300
Ellie that she has joined the
fireflies and will be leaving
57
00:03:16,300 --> 00:03:19,300
the next day as the pair dance
on a display case that a
58
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:21,100
Halloween store, they share a
kiss.
59
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,800
The Magic Moment is broken by an
infected after a fight with the
60
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,800
monster.
Both girls discover they have
61
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,800
been bitten in the present,
Ellie, finds a needle and thread
62
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,700
I'd begin stitching Joel's wound
refusing to lose someone else
63
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:38,500
close to her, okay.
Thanks, you're welcome you this
64
00:03:38,500 --> 00:03:40,600
season.
You have the one job.
65
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,900
I do not like because you just
remind us of that.
66
00:03:43,900 --> 00:03:45,900
And then we get to talk about
the current.
67
00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:51,100
Let's relive some traumas.
Let's talk about sad things
68
00:03:51,100 --> 00:03:53,400
again.
And then you said things,
69
00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:56,000
alright.
Spoiler alert for The Last of
70
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,200
Us, pretty much season one.
We got one episode left and I'm
71
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,100
not going to spoil the game.
So you're fine, you're free,
72
00:04:03,100 --> 00:04:05,900
you're free from that.
All right, let us officially
73
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:10,400
Take a bite of The Last of Us
episode 8 when we are in need
74
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,100
whoo.
Great title for anything.
75
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,600
I just love it when we already
need.
76
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,700
Well, it's not the sound of
music but yeah.
77
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,600
Hey, I could have been, I was
doing more of a church choir.
78
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,700
So this episode Joel's still not
doing good, he's doing worse, I
79
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:28,800
would say is doing worse, he
can't even keep his eyes open.
80
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:35,200
It's a very not great experience
for LA, but this episode gives
81
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,100
us and Only a chance to see a
little bit of a role reversal.
82
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,200
Sure.
Meow.
83
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,300
So it's really taking the lead.
Yeah.
84
00:04:42,300 --> 00:04:45,000
And in the game, when this
happened, it was very much
85
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,800
alike.
I'm Ellie.
86
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,300
Okay.
I guess we're gonna do this.
87
00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:54,300
Yeah, so it was cool to have a
very, I want to say Ellie
88
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:56,100
centered episode.
Yeah.
89
00:04:56,100 --> 00:05:00,100
Aside from the Silver Lake crew,
but it was Ellie.
90
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:03,200
And this is what it would be.
Like if you were on your own and
91
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,700
sadly for someone who is, I In
on their own, for probably the
92
00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:10,800
first time.
She's learned a lot.
93
00:05:10,900 --> 00:05:14,000
She's grown a lot and she kicks
a lot of, but yeah, but, you
94
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,900
know, she did ask Joel did
really help her with hunting and
95
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:22,400
training and would have come in
handy just a little bit, but she
96
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,300
was still good.
Yeah, a little hunting
97
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:27,100
Excursion, she, she got some
things done.
98
00:05:27,100 --> 00:05:29,900
Maybe not to the way that she
wanted to complete them.
99
00:05:29,900 --> 00:05:33,800
They probably didn't all go as
planned, but she was fearless
100
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:38,700
and she used some tactics.
But you know that everything
101
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:43,800
worked out listen she tried her
best because Joel Joel is an
102
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,600
uninfected person during the
entire time of the infected with
103
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:53,600
an infection, what an infection
to have when infections suck.
104
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,800
Then there's no medicine.
Yeah.
105
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,800
It's like the word is taboo but
the dude has an infection.
106
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,100
Yeah.
It's just that, it's not good.
107
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,200
You know.
And Ellie is really trying her
108
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,200
best.
I mean, she She has the tiniest
109
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,100
little scraps of food.
She found some needle and
110
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:13,200
thread, you couldn't ask for
more from her.
111
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:19,300
Well medicine from her calendar.
You can't ask for more.
112
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:21,300
She know.
It's like well she she she
113
00:06:21,300 --> 00:06:24,800
should be a frickin pharmacist
in canvas and figure it out.
114
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,600
Yeah, well they didn't teach you
that vegetable.
115
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,200
Isn't it in Resident Evil?
They're mixing herbs to create
116
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,900
the ultimate healing object.
I'm sure there's herbs.
117
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
A game.
How do you heal in The Last of
118
00:06:38,008 --> 00:06:40,600
Us, you make like medpac?
Okay.
119
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,600
Yeah a lot of the game is like
finding screws and bolts and
120
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,200
like things to make your weapons
more durable and also more
121
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,800
pointy.
Of course.
122
00:06:48,900 --> 00:06:51,200
It's so it is important.
Yeah, there's a, there's
123
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,600
actually a pretty cool game
mechanic in there but you know,
124
00:06:54,900 --> 00:06:58,100
they don't have Med packs like
they know and not not in the
125
00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:59,800
real world version, this one.
Yeah.
126
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,200
And the game you have to like
after you have a certain amount
127
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,800
of Med packs obviously, but the
game doesn't instantly.
128
00:07:05,900 --> 00:07:08,900
Only hear you when you use it.
Like the motion is there like
129
00:07:08,900 --> 00:07:11,700
wrapping their arm and stuff.
So things are still coming,
130
00:07:11,700 --> 00:07:14,000
ashore.
You as you're trying to heal
131
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,400
yourself, it's it's trespassing.
They're just gonna say that this
132
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,000
game, this game.
It's like emotionally
133
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,000
manipulative, it's stressful.
It's like everybody's like it's
134
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,000
the greatest game on earth.
It is to my grave, I will say.
135
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,900
Until there is one that is
better.
136
00:07:32,900 --> 00:07:35,400
It's just narratively the best
game.
137
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:39,800
Is and probably ever will be.
So I heard it here first, I
138
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:46,200
believe you cosign, Noah, but so
this, this episode very wintery.
139
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:51,000
It's a very, it's a harsh harsh
winter, but we get to see ye
140
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,800
another group of people that,
you know, aren't great and
141
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,100
aren't doing so great as Ellie
calls him, the hunger Club,
142
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:04,400
yeah, they're obviously very
hungry, but it's an interesting
143
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,700
group to see.
See because again the lines the
144
00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:11,400
moral compass.
Where is it?
145
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:14,400
It's the the lines that people
will go the things that they
146
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,100
need to do.
Because remember, Joel this
147
00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:20,800
whole time is like I've done
things in my past as he done
148
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,100
some of the things that these
silver like people have.
149
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,500
And I don't know, I don't know
either.
150
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,100
And I think there's an
interesting juxtaposition here.
151
00:08:28,100 --> 00:08:31,300
You know, the last sort of big
group that we saw was Tommy's
152
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,400
group.
Yeah, in Jackson and they were
153
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,799
like la-di-da having movie
Nights.
154
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,200
Really understanding how to run
civilization in a way and then
155
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,700
we get to these people and
you're like, oh, another group,
156
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:47,000
they must really love it there.
No, no.
157
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,100
It's quite Apparent from the
first scene that we get them.
158
00:08:52,100 --> 00:08:54,800
So, they're having some type of
funeral.
159
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,200
There's a you love reading that
David is doing Scott Shepherd
160
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,900
plays.
David the performance in this
161
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:05,300
between Bella Ramsey and Scott
Shepherd.
162
00:09:05,300 --> 00:09:09,300
I just this show does not miss.
It doesn't miss with these
163
00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:12,200
people that they chose to play
these characters.
164
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,300
Oh, well, the nuances.
Yeah, the looks the.
165
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,800
The smirks.
Oh my God.
166
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,600
It's amazing.
And between the two of them in
167
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,000
their conversations, it
throughout the entire episode.
168
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,500
It's like the power keeps
shifting.
169
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:27,300
But yeah to them it's like oh,
you feel like oh, David has the
170
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:27,900
upper hand?
No.
171
00:09:28,100 --> 00:09:30,500
No Ellie has the upper hand.
They just keep shifting back and
172
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:31,500
forth.
It's a really interesting
173
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:35,200
Dynamic to watch.
Yeah, we get the sense that the
174
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,200
first sin PSI.
It's a in this episode that
175
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,600
something isn't quite right?
With this group is when the
176
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,600
young girl of Alec who had
passed away, that they're
177
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:49,200
bearing her, you know, his
daughter asked, can we bury him?
178
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,200
There's hesitation, hmm, there's
hesitation there whenever he's
179
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,500
talking to James played by Troy
Baker, aka, the original voice
180
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:58,900
actor for Joel know which I was
expecting to hear Joel, but I
181
00:09:58,908 --> 00:10:02,400
guess it was just acting when
he's doing the voice.
182
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,300
He was acting.
Yeah, doing his job but that was
183
00:10:05,300 --> 00:10:07,800
really the first First moment we
got like, oh that's that's like
184
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,800
why did why would you didn't
answer it right away and I don't
185
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:11,400
like that.
Yeah.
186
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,800
And in this scene, I think
something else that I took note
187
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,900
of is there felt like some
people weren't look willing to
188
00:10:18,900 --> 00:10:21,000
look him in the eye, as he was
speaking.
189
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,600
People were avoiding his gaze,
which made it feel like he held
190
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,400
power over them and some of them
weren't comfortable with it.
191
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:31,400
It's very much like, they're his
subjects and they have to do
192
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,600
whatever.
He says, they have to go to the
193
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,700
readings, they have to go to
church or what?
194
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:39,100
Listen to his sermons.
Because what I mean, they left
195
00:10:39,100 --> 00:10:43,400
from Pittsburgh because that
fedra qz went to hell.
196
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,300
What are you going to do?
You're in a blizzard I guess I
197
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:49,500
don't know.
Write a story together.
198
00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:53,300
I gotta.
Yeah, the dynamic between David
199
00:10:53,300 --> 00:10:58,400
and Ellie is its term, oily.
It's you'd like you said, who
200
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,300
has the upper hand?
Who doesn't I?
201
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:03,300
Love the part?
Where Ellie sees the deer.
202
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:06,500
Right?
She gets the deer, she's
203
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:09,700
tracking it down but James and
David or the one that finds it.
204
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:13,000
And I'm just I'm just I just
want to say, okay, but it out
205
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:13,700
there.
Cannibalism?
206
00:11:13,700 --> 00:11:15,400
Okay.
They ate, they eat people.
207
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,300
Yeah.
The girl's father, they're
208
00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:20,100
eating him.
They didn't bury him because
209
00:11:20,100 --> 00:11:23,600
they ate him that he's currently
unlike the Butcher Block.
210
00:11:24,300 --> 00:11:27,600
Yeah and I kind of definitely
said in an earlier episode or
211
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,100
maybe it was the patreon
episode.
212
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:30,900
I just I'm not comfortable with
cattle.
213
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,400
No.
And there seems to be a lot of
214
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,600
cannibalism.
And properties lately.
215
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,400
You it's trending hashtag
trending, it wasn't the game, so
216
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,400
2013.
All right, so they started the
217
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,400
truth.
But so there's something that
218
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,700
they were, you know, they went
to cannibalism, right?
219
00:11:48,900 --> 00:11:53,200
And there's a conversation
before James and David go and
220
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,900
find the deer and find Ellie and
like, they're having a hard time
221
00:11:57,500 --> 00:12:01,700
finding food and hunting and
they sent that group out where
222
00:12:01,700 --> 00:12:04,000
Alec died because Joel killed
him.
223
00:12:04,500 --> 00:12:07,200
Full circle here but it's like,
okay.
224
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,400
So this 14 year old girl, just
walked outside.
225
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,900
And 10 minutes later found a
deer.
226
00:12:13,900 --> 00:12:19,400
Like, are you guys really do it?
Are you trying or like it?
227
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,500
Did you guys like want to eat
each other?
228
00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:24,600
I well, I think David might of
he's violent.
229
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,300
Let's try it.
Yeah, it's like very much like
230
00:12:27,300 --> 00:12:30,300
he's like I found religion.
I know the body of Christ.
231
00:12:30,300 --> 00:12:32,200
It's a body.
We got to eat bodies.
232
00:12:33,100 --> 00:12:34,700
We're eating, we're eating.
Bodies.
233
00:12:35,300 --> 00:12:39,700
God body, eat, body, anybody
Eat, Pray, Love Ya, Julia
234
00:12:39,700 --> 00:12:42,600
Roberts, obviously, that's
right.
235
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,100
So I thought that was funny
because it's like this, this
236
00:12:45,100 --> 00:12:48,600
girl finds it very easily and
was able to do it.
237
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:54,400
My other question though is is
like didn't that guy like come
238
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,200
swinging at Joel?
Yeah.
239
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,100
So it's well like they weren't
if they were out looking for
240
00:13:01,100 --> 00:13:03,800
like they should eat in the
monkeys on the campus like why
241
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,300
are they trying Going to kill
Joel.
242
00:13:05,300 --> 00:13:09,300
Well I think it was one of those
things you know, the this show
243
00:13:09,300 --> 00:13:13,000
in this episode, I think paints
different perspectives pretty
244
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,100
well.
So we got the role reversal
245
00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:18,800
where Elly is going to
experience, what Joel kind of
246
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,400
has to do on a daily basis and
what violence the toll that it
247
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:28,600
has on him, Maybe they thought
Joel and Ellie were Hunters just
248
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,600
like they died.
So it's that's where I'm saying
249
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,700
like the the line between good
and evil or the more compasses.
250
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:38,800
It's very much blurred because
are you really going to chance
251
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,900
it?
I don't know.
252
00:13:41,500 --> 00:13:45,100
So unfortunately Joel did kill
that guy.
253
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,900
It's like get before you get
got.
254
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,400
Exactly.
Exactly.
255
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,500
Just be nice.
Just be nice.
256
00:13:50,500 --> 00:13:53,300
Just talk to each other.
Yeah, Scott.
257
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,700
Hi.
Why you got a bat?
258
00:13:55,700 --> 00:14:00,000
What are you doing?
I mean that is a good point.
259
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,400
I don't think they really had
guns.
260
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:07,000
So I mean you know module, yeah.
Well that's the thing with Joel
261
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,900
though, right?
Is that swings?
262
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:12,100
First ask questions later he's
at he might be sort of a leap
263
00:14:12,100 --> 00:14:14,600
before you look person in those
types of situations.
264
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,100
But in that moment, a couple of
days before it, he was going to
265
00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:21,400
leave Ellie.
So he has finally accepted the
266
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,300
responsibility and in his mind
he cannot Failed her but any any
267
00:14:25,300 --> 00:14:26,900
chance.
So he needed to get rid of this
268
00:14:26,900 --> 00:14:28,300
person.
That was coming at them.
269
00:14:28,300 --> 00:14:32,700
I mean, not really mad at him
hard to be, you know, unless
270
00:14:32,700 --> 00:14:35,400
David was like yeah, go out
there looking for deer, but if
271
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,300
you find a human wink, wink.
Well hello.
272
00:14:38,300 --> 00:14:43,700
Only a few people knew
especially venison.
273
00:14:43,700 --> 00:14:49,100
AKA young fellow girl made for
grunting all groan, man.
274
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,600
Well, as we know, he does not
want the kids to Die, the young
275
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,400
ones to die.
Well, okay yeah.
276
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:57,300
So yeah, I don't want to talk
about that right now.
277
00:14:58,100 --> 00:14:59,500
We don't want to talk about it
ever.
278
00:14:59,500 --> 00:15:02,600
Yeah.
So the power of the conversation
279
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,300
that Ellie and David have the
first one I think is interesting
280
00:15:06,900 --> 00:15:10,900
and it shows just how fucked up
David is really.
281
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,100
So he sends Jame off James off
to go get the medicine.
282
00:15:15,100 --> 00:15:18,300
Great penicillin, we need it to
happen that way.
283
00:15:18,300 --> 00:15:21,700
Joel is able to be Joel.
Again the medpac we needed the
284
00:15:21,700 --> 00:15:23,300
medpac.
Yeah but I'm glad it.
285
00:15:23,500 --> 00:15:26,100
It happened because I was
thinking up to the scene.
286
00:15:26,100 --> 00:15:28,300
I was like how how is this going
to happen?
287
00:15:28,300 --> 00:15:30,200
Like how is she going to get the
medicine from them?
288
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,500
So I'm glad that David was good
on his promise for that, but the
289
00:15:34,500 --> 00:15:40,300
conversation is so weird.
We find out that he didn't find
290
00:15:40,300 --> 00:15:44,700
God until after the apocalypse.
But then, he also kind of talks
291
00:15:44,700 --> 00:15:48,800
about how, you know, he was a
violent person before this like,
292
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,300
he had a violent heart.
He's the same way as Ellie.
293
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:57,100
So it's very Durning that that's
that he divulges, this
294
00:15:57,100 --> 00:15:58,400
information.
I don't know if he's just trying
295
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,400
to connect with her, because he
thinks that he sees that in her
296
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,300
or they're similar.
Well, it feels a little bit
297
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,300
like, well, don't forget, he
knows he already knows who
298
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:10,300
Elias.
Oh, my God, right, when he
299
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:11,400
revealed that.
Yeah.
300
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,400
So you're so he's trying to keep
her calm.
301
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,400
He's trying to get her trust
waiting for James to come back.
302
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,500
Exactly.
So he knows exactly what he's
303
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:20,100
doing.
I mean, the thing is, is that
304
00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:23,300
You know, she I think she said
something to him like what are
305
00:16:23,300 --> 00:16:25,300
you a cult?
And I don't think he knows
306
00:16:25,300 --> 00:16:28,500
necessarily denies it.
He just said basic bible stuff.
307
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:31,200
Yeah.
So and so, don't forget with a
308
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,500
lot of cult leaders, they're
very charismatic and they have
309
00:16:34,500 --> 00:16:37,000
to win people over and he's
playing that game with her and
310
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,000
he has the thing that everybody
needs.
311
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,100
So they're very much dependent
on him and he plays into that,
312
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:43,500
right?
Yeah.
313
00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:46,800
It's very cold tea.
Yeah, cannibal called you can't
314
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:48,600
know.
The place is bad.
315
00:16:49,300 --> 00:16:50,900
It is not like the winter
Resort.
316
00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:53,300
I want to go to you guys are in
a winter Resort.
317
00:16:53,300 --> 00:16:57,900
Like there's no, like be nice.
Don't eat each other.
318
00:16:59,300 --> 00:17:03,000
Yeah, there's people are there,
they're miserable they're just
319
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,000
running these herbal and you
know, I don't know.
320
00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:08,500
I don't know.
I keep going back to Tommy
321
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:11,000
because it's like how did they
figure it out?
322
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,700
Communism.
There you go.
323
00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:13,500
That's the answer.
Yeah.
324
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:16,300
And they also had Maria running
it.
325
00:17:16,300 --> 00:17:20,800
Like, I mean, come on the can't
have this freaking dude running
326
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,800
it because obviously just thinks
the E people.
327
00:17:22,900 --> 00:17:27,500
I do that was once maybe my
literature some way but also
328
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:28,900
math teacher.
Well that's your know.
329
00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:31,400
Number one, watch out that Math
teachers.
330
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:38,200
Yeah, okay no offense any the
Math teachers oh yeah the scene,
331
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,600
where Elly find the gets back to
Joel, she escapes for a minute
332
00:17:43,300 --> 00:17:47,400
gets back to Joel.
I loved the realistic approach
333
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,400
to her.
Being like, I don't know where
334
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,900
to put this medicine into the
wound.
335
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,600
Yeah, I guess like, it seemed to
work.
336
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,300
I was, I'm just thinking, like,
I'm like, does she have to Find
337
00:17:59,300 --> 00:18:02,500
a vein what's happening?
But yeah into the wound Works.
338
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,900
Although no and I are both
allergic to penicillin.
339
00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:08,400
So we were watching this going.
That would have been banned.
340
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,700
Yeah.
And he had for us what if he was
341
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:12,100
too?
And he couldn't he didn't have
342
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:15,500
enough energy to tell her don't.
Dude I have a cylinder and I
343
00:18:15,500 --> 00:18:18,800
kept thinking like how many
milligrams does she know to put
344
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,400
it on?
Just like half, right?
345
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,800
Half the needle, that's fine.
The syringe is huge.
346
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,200
She's like half of it.
I, you know, you just can't
347
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,600
think.
I you know, and those moments
348
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,200
you can't.
Me thinking about that stuff.
349
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,500
You just have to act its
aggressive therapy.
350
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,600
Yeah antibiotics lie.
But yeah she got two injections
351
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,900
then and it seemed like that's
all that was needed to doses.
352
00:18:39,900 --> 00:18:41,200
Yeah.
Oh my God.
353
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,200
Okay.
Okay.
354
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,900
Cannibal seen.
We have we have to mention it
355
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:51,200
which one?
Well the one thus to 1 this 2 1
356
00:18:51,900 --> 00:18:53,800
so they're not even back with
the deer yet.
357
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,500
We see that they have a whole
bucket of meat which is a big
358
00:18:56,500 --> 00:18:58,900
red flag because they just said
they didn't have meat.
359
00:18:59,100 --> 00:19:02,100
It was funny because I'm
watching going like, wow, they
360
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:04,200
really chop that deer up real
quick.
361
00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:07,300
Nope.
No, they didn't get back yet.
362
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,300
He very select.
Few people know about the
363
00:19:11,308 --> 00:19:16,600
cannibalism and eating the dead
and every thing, the fact that
364
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:22,800
this man, not only slapped the
shit out of the daughter of the
365
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,200
person, they're about to eat so
hard that she flies off her
366
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,900
chair but then watches, Her eat
her father.
367
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,400
And then how about the fact that
he has the biggest plate?
368
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:35,600
Yeah.
Like you.
369
00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:38,200
So, obviously, you know, it's
messed up because he got more
370
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,300
food than everyone because he's
the leader or whatever.
371
00:19:40,300 --> 00:19:43,000
Let's talk about portions.
But seriously, these people were
372
00:19:43,008 --> 00:19:46,600
like, scraping the ball after
two spoonfuls, but he's sitting
373
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,900
there eating a giant mound of
her dad.
374
00:19:48,900 --> 00:19:51,500
Looking at her smiling.
Yeah, dude.
375
00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:57,100
Is not okay, he's not great.
It's Great though, for
376
00:19:57,100 --> 00:20:01,800
television a story because he's
like, the most clear-cut
377
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,500
villain.
We've had this entire time.
378
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,000
He's bad, he's Bad News Bears.
He's not great agreed.
379
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,800
The Bears are indeed bad.
Yeah, news when he, when he goes
380
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,900
back and says that we found the
people that killed Alec, we're
381
00:20:15,900 --> 00:20:19,300
going to bring a search party
together to go find her, they do
382
00:20:19,300 --> 00:20:22,400
find her, they find her and
unfortunately, one of the
383
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,300
saddest casualties of the season
is Calais.
384
00:20:25,900 --> 00:20:29,500
Horse.
How dare like he y'all good boy.
385
00:20:29,500 --> 00:20:33,000
Y'all this episode though, they
were like guess what?
386
00:20:33,300 --> 00:20:34,900
Dear dead?
Guess what?
387
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,300
Eating humans.
Another thing gonna shoot this
388
00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:39,200
horse.
What is happening?
389
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,900
I'm I am so like, too many
things are dying.
390
00:20:42,900 --> 00:20:46,400
They can't deal with it.
Well, we have one more episode,
391
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,800
so, oh my God.
Now, they're just going to be
392
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,900
killing dogs.
Just know, right.
393
00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:54,100
Never they don't kill dogs.
Yes, that's, that's crossing a
394
00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:55,600
line.
Callus, the horse.
395
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,400
Yes, yes.
Dogs know that horse did such a
396
00:20:58,408 --> 00:21:01,400
good job?
Yeah it was so sad.
397
00:21:01,700 --> 00:21:07,700
The moment that she's caught is
very Upsetting because it's I
398
00:21:07,700 --> 00:21:10,400
feel like one of the first
moments because we've seen
399
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,500
flashbacks in the Riley episode.
We knew that what she was going
400
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:18,300
through isn't futile, because
receive her in the present.
401
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,100
This one.
It's it's so much loss of
402
00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:23,500
control.
It's so much, like what?
403
00:21:23,500 --> 00:21:27,100
Like Joel is down there.
Your protector.
404
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,300
You're by yourself with men
surrounding you.
405
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,700
It's terrifying.
And James is an interesting
406
00:21:34,700 --> 00:21:38,000
character.
In this that he had no problem,
407
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,000
wanting to kill her.
And I don't know if it's because
408
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,200
he actually believed that it's
another mouth to feed, or he
409
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,700
just wanted Vengeance for
killing Alec.
410
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:51,200
I also think there's something
to be said about James knowing
411
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,500
more about David than maybe some
of the others.
412
00:21:53,500 --> 00:21:57,600
Do I think that in that decision
in that moment?
413
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,200
I think it's Vengeance mouths to
feed and I also think it's sort
414
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,700
of a thought of saving this girl
from him.
415
00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:05,800
Yeah, I got that.
I got that a little A bit too.
416
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,900
Like he almost didn't like it
would be better if he just put
417
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:12,600
her out of her misery and stead
of subjecting her to David
418
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:17,400
Wright which is like guys if you
don't like there's more of you
419
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,300
than him come on.
But I'm but that's the thing
420
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:22,500
though.
I mean like that is the that is
421
00:22:22,500 --> 00:22:26,200
the thing about cults.
How does one person gain control
422
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:29,600
over so many times hundreds of
people?
423
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,600
Yeah it's amazing and like
you're saying it's like but it's
424
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,200
one person.
How does one person I don't
425
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,100
know.
It's just Humanity.
426
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,200
Yeah, in a time of need, we for
some reason, need that one
427
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,100
person to look to even if
they're extremely flawed when
428
00:22:45,100 --> 00:22:50,200
were in need like today, there's
no, don't do it.
429
00:22:50,300 --> 00:22:57,100
The cage scene with David is
probably one of my I think that
430
00:22:57,100 --> 00:22:58,600
the rest of this episode.
So they're going to the
431
00:22:58,608 --> 00:23:02,600
climactic ending and everything.
I think it's one of my favorite
432
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,500
parts of this season so far.
Because one, they didn't hold
433
00:23:06,500 --> 00:23:08,800
back.
They really went full force into
434
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,000
just this violent raw
conversation, and explosive
435
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,500
climax, but also it was shot
really well.
436
00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:19,500
And this like, okay saying it
again.
437
00:23:19,700 --> 00:23:25,300
Bella Ramsey, if she does not
get an award of some sort like
438
00:23:25,300 --> 00:23:28,700
any award like HBO should just
make one up for her.
439
00:23:29,100 --> 00:23:31,900
It's just phenomenal, it's so
good.
440
00:23:32,100 --> 00:23:36,100
The way that these characters
play off of each And you can see
441
00:23:36,100 --> 00:23:37,400
this moment with her where she
is.
442
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,800
Very scared.
She's backing away from the gate
443
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,300
or the fence and David's trying
to get, get to her, trying to
444
00:23:43,300 --> 00:23:46,700
peel back the layers a little
bit but then I think she sees
445
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:50,500
that she might be able to play
it a little bit and she starts
446
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,400
getting closer to him and that's
when things get a little more
447
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,000
icky than I thought they could
have been.
448
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:02,700
It's not fun.
Yeah, and I think this again,
449
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:04,800
that's this scene.
Illustrates the thing I was
450
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,500
talking about.
Before our sort of the push and
451
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:09,000
pull between them.
One of the things I really loved
452
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,300
was the blocking of this seemed
like you were saying.
453
00:24:11,500 --> 00:24:14,900
And for that the first few
moments it really was like, they
454
00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:19,000
were like ends of a magnet where
the closer he would try to get
455
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,300
there.
She would push away from him.
456
00:24:20,300 --> 00:24:23,600
And she kept tangling herself so
that she was nowhere near him.
457
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,700
Because, in a way she really was
a caged animal, and she was
458
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,300
ready to lash out, but she knew
that she had to plan her strike.
459
00:24:32,300 --> 00:24:35,600
Well, yeah.
And so when she saw him, Again
460
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,300
trying to groom her trying to
bring her in, trying to convince
461
00:24:38,300 --> 00:24:40,900
her to be a part of the, their,
their group.
462
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,600
She knew that she could lean
into that and use it against
463
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,700
him.
Yeah, the, the moment of, you
464
00:24:46,700 --> 00:24:49,400
know, you think that he's just
trying to recruit her right and
465
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,300
just join the cult, your
violent, just like me.
466
00:24:51,300 --> 00:24:55,300
He says a violent heart, which I
think no Craig Mazin and Inside
467
00:24:55,300 --> 00:24:58,400
the episode of your watch, it, I
like what he said about that
468
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,900
because of violent heart is a
line that they, they added to
469
00:25:01,900 --> 00:25:04,900
this and it almost describes
Ellie and how you feel about her
470
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:08,200
and he said you loved her but
you're also terrified of her.
471
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,100
Hmm.
And that really sums up Ellie as
472
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:11,200
a whole.
Yeah.
473
00:25:11,300 --> 00:25:15,000
And he's saying that he relates
to that and you can see that.
474
00:25:15,100 --> 00:25:16,400
Yeah.
Because he does have the
475
00:25:16,700 --> 00:25:18,900
Charisma.
He does have that warmth ohm us
476
00:25:18,900 --> 00:25:24,000
and it seems like at first he
does care for the people but
477
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,800
then there's those nasty dark
parts that he wants to show and
478
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,400
private and people are at their
most vulnerable.
479
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:35,500
I feel like Ellie and this
episode is is in the center of
480
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:39,300
sort of this Venn diagram.
And on one side is David and on
481
00:25:39,300 --> 00:25:42,800
the other side is Joel and David
is sort of well Joel is like
482
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,000
chaotic good and David is
chaotic evil.
483
00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:49,600
And in this episode, it's kind
of like she's going back and
484
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,300
forth between what kind of chaos
she's going to be in the world.
485
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:58,100
Yeah because as we know Joel now
yes we know his past was he did
486
00:25:58,100 --> 00:26:03,000
some bad things but he exists in
this plane of chaos but for for
487
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,300
good.
Now now, whereas David is chaos
488
00:26:06,300 --> 00:26:11,200
but bad and so we CLE sort of
like swerving in between these
489
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,100
two things because it almost
seems like she has both facets.
490
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:17,800
Yeah, of those two people but
it's like which way she going to
491
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,200
end up leaning and that's sort
of the question.
492
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:23,400
Yeah.
And it will be interesting to
493
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:29,700
see how they continue her art,
because she does she's violent.
494
00:26:29,700 --> 00:26:34,900
And she, I think that she sees
the The toll that it took on
495
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:38,600
Joel and she feels that by the
end of this episode but how she
496
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:42,300
deals with that and how Joel
cares for her after that is
497
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:46,000
really going to be the deciding
factor between if she's going to
498
00:26:46,008 --> 00:26:50,100
go more David side, obviously
not totally David side but just
499
00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:54,500
more violent and violent or more
healing and dealing with it and
500
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,300
a little bit more of an
appropriate way.
501
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:59,300
Sure with Joel.
It's like, it's like violence
502
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,500
for good to create good in a
way.
503
00:27:03,700 --> 00:27:07,200
Violence to get rid of bad
people or violence to just be
504
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,800
evil violence well in their
control, the survivability
505
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,800
factor of this world that
they're in.
506
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,100
Now the violence is a thing that
is always going to have solutely
507
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,500
and you're going to need to do
it.
508
00:27:17,500 --> 00:27:20,300
Unfortunately because there are
the David's there, there's the
509
00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:23,900
Kathleen's.
Doesn't mean that you seek that
510
00:27:23,900 --> 00:27:26,800
out.
And that's really where David
511
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,300
falters in that.
I mean, the moral compass is
512
00:27:29,300 --> 00:27:32,300
completely shattered, and I
think that in, those contests is
513
00:27:32,300 --> 00:27:34,600
just spinning.
Yeah, it's not a compass
514
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,000
anymore.
It's just a nice decorative
515
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,400
thing.
That doesn't give a shit, it's
516
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,700
exploded.
Yeah, they're pretty.
517
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:44,100
I mean, they're kind of, like
morality is not necessarily a
518
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,400
thing as we know it, you know,
in real life where there's like,
519
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,700
sort of, you know, I think a lot
of times there's black, there's
520
00:27:49,700 --> 00:27:52,600
white, there's gray, but it just
feels like There's nothing in
521
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:57,000
this Society.
Yes right it's not morality is
522
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,000
something that you don't really
have time to think about in a
523
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,300
lot of situations because it's
either you actor they act it's
524
00:28:03,300 --> 00:28:07,400
almost in the instances like
Joel and the episode where he
525
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,700
decided to carrot keep going for
Ellie that's almost the
526
00:28:10,700 --> 00:28:14,900
instances where morality is
showing itself and where you
527
00:28:14,900 --> 00:28:17,500
feel that tug like, okay, this
is the right thing to do.
528
00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:19,700
I should be doing this, I
shouldn't subject.
529
00:28:19,700 --> 00:28:23,800
My brother that is going to be
Having a baby to go on this
530
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,400
journey, right?
Yeah, totally.
531
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,500
Yeah, so, I mean, The cage seen
the moment that he puts his
532
00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:34,000
hands on the rail.
Yeah.
533
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:36,900
And she kind of goes in there
but then he kind of Cups him a
534
00:28:36,908 --> 00:28:40,600
little bit.
I just like that those things I
535
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,300
don't like in any horror that I
read I don't like the it's like
536
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:49,000
a child wife type situation.
Like you really got that feeling
537
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,900
from him and it's just so
uncomfortable, obviously it
538
00:28:51,900 --> 00:28:56,400
should be but like the links
that this dude is trying to go
539
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,200
He just met her.
What?
540
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,600
Like I mean I don't know her.
Yeah it's this.
541
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:02,700
That's the thing.
I think.
542
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:07,800
That's so sort of gross about it
is that he just immediately see.
543
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,300
He's like a predator and she is
pray.
544
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,900
Yeah.
And and he's just immediately
545
00:29:12,900 --> 00:29:15,800
ready to to attack.
Yeah.
546
00:29:15,900 --> 00:29:18,100
And it's disgusting.
Yeah.
547
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:22,200
It's disgusting and layered on
top of the cannibalism and and,
548
00:29:22,300 --> 00:29:26,700
and Ellie again is 14 and we're
seeing her half.
549
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:30,500
Have like, put all these puzzle
pieces together and look at the
550
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:34,500
picture and then figure out how
to get out of the picture.
551
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,300
I think the moment that she
realized that it's not going to
552
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:42,500
go well like she has to get out
and get back to Joel is when she
553
00:29:42,500 --> 00:29:46,500
asked about her friend in this
scene and you know he's like if
554
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:49,400
you do this do this you know,
whatever you can come and we
555
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,200
will be fine.
And she was like and my friend
556
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,900
and he was like well we'll see
like he hesitated that and
557
00:29:53,900 --> 00:29:56,700
that's when I think she was
like, okay, it's not going.
558
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,800
Go.
Well, like I can't, if Joel
559
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,800
doesn't make it out of this
alive, if I can't protect him, I
560
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,900
can't be here and I need to get
out, right?
561
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,900
And she tries, she tries so
hard.
562
00:30:05,900 --> 00:30:08,800
She almost get those keys.
She she's like breaks his
563
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,200
finger.
She tries to get those keys.
564
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:16,400
He slammed her head into thin,
the bars multiple times.
565
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:21,000
And one of the coolest things
that she has said this entire
566
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,700
season so far, and she says her
name, and then she was, like,
567
00:30:24,700 --> 00:30:28,800
tell them the little girl Ellie.
The one that broke your finger
568
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,800
so good.
Oh my gosh.
569
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,300
So, good talk about aligned
delivered.
570
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:39,400
Yeah, and like from this point,
I mean her her acting throughout
571
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,400
her performance throughout the
entire episode is so good.
572
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:48,300
But from from the cage on out,
it's just watching a
573
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:53,400
transformation.
So Mellie suspenseful so 10, so
574
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,600
full of Rage.
So full of Rage.
575
00:30:55,700 --> 00:31:00,500
I mean it's just Just so good.
These are the, these are the
576
00:31:00,500 --> 00:31:04,200
scenes that they had to nail for
this show to be successful
577
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,100
because they could have easily
just did it.
578
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,600
Mmm and didn't really sit with
it or didn't really go to that
579
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,600
extreme because we haven't
really gotten infected.
580
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,200
I mean we got infected in the
last one but it was a flashback
581
00:31:15,700 --> 00:31:17,500
and they said that they were
going.
582
00:31:17,500 --> 00:31:19,900
It's going to be sparse, the
violence is going to be sparse,
583
00:31:19,900 --> 00:31:22,500
and when it does happen, it's
going to mean something.
584
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,600
And they delivered in this
episode, this episode was very
585
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,500
Ellen, tweet, I mean, just
talking about the violence.
586
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:34,300
So our friend, Joel, he does
wake up in the basement and he
587
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:37,300
takes two of these guys hostage
and does.
588
00:31:37,300 --> 00:31:41,000
Some does some things that had
me closing my eyes, but going
589
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,400
like, no, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, this scene is is very
590
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:50,200
Infamous with the having him
Mark where they are and where
591
00:31:50,500 --> 00:31:53,900
Elly is on the map with the
knife that he just pulled out of
592
00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:56,100
the guys knee.
He's pissed.
593
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,200
He's so, So pissed.
And this is a glimpse of the
594
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,700
Joel that was before Ellie.
Hmm.
595
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,100
Like this is Rage.
Joel and there's there's
596
00:32:05,100 --> 00:32:09,400
something to be said about
Joel's anger that it's not only
597
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,200
at the outside, you know,
forces.
598
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,600
But it's also I think a lot of
internal anger, you know.
599
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,300
I think it's that thing of.
How did I let her get away?
600
00:32:19,300 --> 00:32:21,300
How did I get hurt?
Hospital has happened.
601
00:32:21,300 --> 00:32:24,100
Yeah, yeah.
And so that that's a big driving
602
00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:28,500
force in all of this is his own.
GE towards him getting hurt or
603
00:32:28,500 --> 00:32:31,700
making a bad decision and he's
not and he's willing to do
604
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:33,400
whatever it takes to to save
her.
605
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:38,600
Yeah, I love the again, the role
reversal of this episode, you
606
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,700
expect him to save her, you
expect.
607
00:32:40,700 --> 00:32:43,100
Because that's what's been
happening this entire time,
608
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,300
leading up to when Joel finally
get reunited with Ellie him,
609
00:32:48,300 --> 00:32:51,200
seeing the trail of blood,
seeing the back rack, seeing the
610
00:32:51,208 --> 00:32:54,600
bodies I mean, just like
thinking about what he must be
611
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,400
thinking and that moment and He
still even though he doesn't
612
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,700
know if she's dead or not or
where she is or what happened to
613
00:33:00,700 --> 00:33:04,000
her, he still grabs her backpack
and he's like, I'm gonna find
614
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,500
her like she's going to be okay.
I'm gonna find her.
615
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:09,500
It's just yeah.
Like I'm so sorry guys.
616
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,800
I'm so sorry for these two
characters I dislike you know I
617
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,500
did when she fell off the horse,
her backpack goes flying and I
618
00:33:17,500 --> 00:33:20,200
was like glue off those like
know her pun book.
619
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,900
She needs her pun book and then
she got it back.
620
00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:24,600
Don't do got her backpack for
her.
621
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,800
Yeah.
So Okay, the fight between David
622
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:34,900
and la so terrifying.
It was probably one of the
623
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:39,400
scenes that felt the most like
the game because you see, David
624
00:33:39,500 --> 00:33:43,800
trying to lure her at taunting
saying, things, taunting her.
625
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,200
And she's trying to hide.
She's hiding behind things.
626
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,200
She's running to the other side.
Ouch crouch, crouch.
627
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,200
Exactly.
It's like, oh my God, what is
628
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,700
going to happen?
Lights the place on fire.
629
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,300
Amazing backdrop.
I mean, yeah, why not?
630
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:58,800
Good luck with your shell?
For now, you stupid son of a
631
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:05,400
bitch but the moment where he
does get the upper hand a little
632
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,000
bit and it seems like he's about
to assault her in a different
633
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:14,500
way, which is like going to yet.
Like dude I mean just one the
634
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:18,699
place is burning down like
that's how awful.
635
00:34:18,699 --> 00:34:22,300
This guy is a piece of shit.
I mean, can't even have that
636
00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:25,699
awareness of like your guys are
gonna die.
637
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,500
Well, he's so Hell-bent on,
just, you know, look, yeah.
638
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,100
And Harvey.
She gets the upper hand with
639
00:34:32,100 --> 00:34:36,699
that, meat cleaver, the same one
that killed, that killed saddled
640
00:34:36,699 --> 00:34:39,100
James.
But oh, man.
641
00:34:39,100 --> 00:34:44,600
And she goes in, she all the
rage, everything just pours out
642
00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:47,500
on to David's face with the meat
cleaver.
643
00:34:47,500 --> 00:34:51,600
I had this moment when she was
laying into him like that, where
644
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,900
I first I was like, yes, get
him, get him, but then as it
645
00:34:54,900 --> 00:34:56,600
kept going you're like wait a
minute.
646
00:34:56,699 --> 00:34:58,600
Minute.
This means something more this
647
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,400
because I feel like in a lot of
movies or television shows.
648
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,400
When a scene like this happens,
the person leaves in like, yeah,
649
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,700
I did it.
It's been awesome but you could
650
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:10,400
see in this moment that
something else is happening.
651
00:35:10,500 --> 00:35:14,400
Yeah, that there is she has
crossed a line that she's never
652
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,500
going to be able to back back
away from.
653
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,800
I mean, look at, you know, first
time she really killed, somebody
654
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:24,200
was to save Joel and it was a
moment that she had to act right
655
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:25,800
then and there and she brushed
It Off.
656
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,200
In this one, the amount of
things that she's having to do
657
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,100
she's faced with so much
violence and actually being the
658
00:35:34,100 --> 00:35:38,100
one to carry it out and so much
different than somebody
659
00:35:38,100 --> 00:35:40,300
protecting you and doing it for
you.
660
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,800
And she's seeing that firsthand
and for her to just not be able
661
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,300
to stop when clearly he's done.
I think by like whack too, he's
662
00:35:49,300 --> 00:35:54,600
probably done, but then after
17, there's something changing
663
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:59,100
this characters changing their
Into something that could go one
664
00:35:59,100 --> 00:36:00,700
way or the other.
Mhm.
665
00:36:00,700 --> 00:36:03,200
And when she gets out and she
gets out of that Lodge.
666
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:08,600
And she just like, Nothing, like
she's obviously terrified, and
667
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,900
she like, but she's like, she's
just going, she just needs to
668
00:36:11,908 --> 00:36:13,800
go.
Yeah, she just starts walking.
669
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,700
She's out like autopilot
autopilot?
670
00:36:16,700 --> 00:36:20,900
Yeah, he's just out of there,
Joel finding her and she
671
00:36:20,900 --> 00:36:23,500
freaking out because she doesn't
know, just she's just who has me
672
00:36:23,500 --> 00:36:25,000
now.
Yeah, rage mode.
673
00:36:25,500 --> 00:36:29,700
Ah, she goes in for that hug and
he cried, I cried cried.
674
00:36:29,700 --> 00:36:33,000
And it's hard to talk about this
because it's so good.
675
00:36:33,100 --> 00:36:36,800
They did it in such a way where
you're like, oh my God, like
676
00:36:37,500 --> 00:36:40,400
this wasn't just the person
overcoming, the enemy.
677
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,300
This is more.
This is this is the true loss of
678
00:36:43,300 --> 00:36:45,300
Innocence, this is it.
It's over.
679
00:36:45,300 --> 00:36:49,700
She has fully crossed over into
being an adult at 14 years old.
680
00:36:49,700 --> 00:36:52,200
There is nothing that can take
her back from this.
681
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:56,600
Yeah, her saying he tried and
then him stopping her because he
682
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,400
knows he knows that anything
that was in there.
683
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,400
You didn't deserve any of it.
Yeah.
684
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,800
And you don't need to tell me
right now and he just holds her
685
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:09,500
and says baby girl, which he
hasn't said since Sarah and I
686
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:14,500
love the shot, I sad shot, but I
love when it shows her back.
687
00:37:14,700 --> 00:37:17,400
He's holding her.
And the watch is really the
688
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:23,500
center of that shot, and it's
just man and he's, he's fully
689
00:37:23,500 --> 00:37:27,800
developing into this, she's not
cargo anymore, she is more than
690
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,700
that and she's developing into
rage.
691
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,800
Yeah, violence and experiencing
that.
692
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,800
And but it's nice to see her
want Joel.
693
00:37:37,900 --> 00:37:42,000
Well, I mean, at the, at the end
of it all, that's what she went
694
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,900
through.
All this for me to save him, You
695
00:37:44,900 --> 00:37:48,100
know, and you know, we've been
talking a lot about morality in
696
00:37:48,100 --> 00:37:52,400
this episode but I think even
though she has all this rage her
697
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,900
her moral compass points, her to
knowing that this is a good
698
00:37:55,900 --> 00:37:57,600
person.
This is a person.
699
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,400
I have to save.
This is a person who means a lot
700
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,800
to me and she can identify with
right?
701
00:38:01,900 --> 00:38:04,500
Yeah.
And so that bond is what is
702
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:07,200
driving her what drove her
through this entire episode and
703
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,100
that bond is also.
What drove Joel through the
704
00:38:10,100 --> 00:38:15,200
second half of this episode they
are forever bonded now It's gone
705
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,700
past like you said cargo.
It's a father and a daughter.
706
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:19,600
Yeah.
Yeah.
707
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,400
Which is beautiful to see.
It's unfortunate that we have to
708
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,800
see it in these circumstances.
I just wish they'd stay in
709
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,600
Jackson.
You know, just stay with them,
710
00:38:30,700 --> 00:38:34,100
but there is the question.
I don't think we talk about it
711
00:38:34,100 --> 00:38:37,300
that much, and I don't think
it's really brought up that much
712
00:38:37,300 --> 00:38:39,800
in the show because so much
stuff happens.
713
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:44,500
Is she has to save everybody.
Yeah, like she still has that.
714
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:49,200
That responsibility, the hope
that this could possibly be the
715
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,300
thing to save the world.
But there's also that question
716
00:38:52,300 --> 00:38:57,100
of ok, a cure can be made.
Then what?
717
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,000
Right.
How do you rebuild a world that
718
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:06,300
knew what it was before and has
grown to the after I do you do
719
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:09,100
that?
Like is there a I'm real quick.
720
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:11,800
I just want to know, is there a
story that anybody knows of like
721
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:17,200
a book or whatever of a The
rebuilding after that because I
722
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,300
don't I can't think of one.
Well actually.
723
00:39:19,300 --> 00:39:24,300
Now I haven't read the book
World War Z but the movie World
724
00:39:24,300 --> 00:39:27,700
War Z took a lot of Liberties.
I believe of what actually World
725
00:39:27,700 --> 00:39:30,400
War Z was about and the Book
World War Z.
726
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,600
I'm pretty sure is actually
about rebuilding the world after
727
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,300
the spread zombies.
Interesting.
728
00:39:37,300 --> 00:39:39,300
I did hear that.
It was very different from the
729
00:39:39,300 --> 00:39:41,500
book and they focused on like
one story.
730
00:39:41,500 --> 00:39:43,300
Yeah.
When there was more than that
731
00:39:43,300 --> 00:39:45,700
but that's interesting I might
have To actually read that at
732
00:39:45,700 --> 00:39:46,400
some point.
Yeah.
733
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,000
Because it's very, I mean, I
really like the movie, but I
734
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:53,000
remember I remember hearing that
it was the, it really was not
735
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,500
the storyline of the book.
Purse a good movie though.
736
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:59,900
I love that movie, so good.
But I do think that like I yeah,
737
00:39:59,900 --> 00:40:03,900
I wonder like, Okay.
So let's say we get Ellie's
738
00:40:03,900 --> 00:40:07,000
blood, we don't know, spin it
around a bit and then we have
739
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,900
the Cure.
I think there's more than that.
740
00:40:08,900 --> 00:40:13,100
But yeah, like it's like, what
are you gonna do for the
741
00:40:13,100 --> 00:40:16,100
thousands of people?
Hundreds of thousands of people
742
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:18,400
that are zombies already.
Like, that's not going to fix
743
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,200
that problem.
Well, I think it would make it
744
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,000
easier to be able to exterminate
that bit.
745
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,300
You could yeah yourself.
Before you wouldn't.
746
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:28,800
Yeah, you wouldn't change.
So because that's the thing
747
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,800
about and that's what separates
it from some other zombie
748
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,400
things.
You know, Walking Dead.
749
00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:36,900
Everybody's infected already
because when you die, you turn
750
00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:39,800
into a zombie, right?
This one, you can die but as
751
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,600
long as you didn't get infected
or bitten, your fine.
752
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,700
Yeah.
I mean, so I don't know.
753
00:40:47,700 --> 00:40:49,900
I, it's interesting.
It's an interesting thought to
754
00:40:49,900 --> 00:40:53,200
think about because this world
and we see the Kathleen's, we
755
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,800
see the David's, we see how the
Koozies work we see Federer, and
756
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:01,000
it's like, can it rebuild?
I mean, it's going to be so
757
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,900
fracture, right?
Absolutely wouldn't be States
758
00:41:04,900 --> 00:41:07,800
how they were, you know, hey
guys, we found the thing.
759
00:41:07,900 --> 00:41:10,800
Oops, we killed you like, like
it would just be Marlon and
760
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,000
florins just being the best
people and fine.
761
00:41:14,300 --> 00:41:16,100
I'm telling you, we need that
spin-off.
762
00:41:16,100 --> 00:41:18,900
I think they need to make a
bonus episode of this season of
763
00:41:18,900 --> 00:41:21,600
just the two of them.
So we could all just breathe for
764
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,100
a little bit.
Yeah.
765
00:41:23,100 --> 00:41:28,400
Just an episode of their life
being delightful and that cabin
766
00:41:28,900 --> 00:41:31,300
we need to decompress.
Yeah, we really do.
767
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:37,900
I mean, this episode being as
awful as it was for television
768
00:41:37,900 --> 00:41:40,000
and four-story sake, really
good.
769
00:41:40,300 --> 00:41:44,200
It's just, it's what makes this
property and what made this.
770
00:41:44,900 --> 00:41:47,900
Video game so good because of
the way.
771
00:41:47,900 --> 00:41:50,700
It's written.
Mmm, and it's not just, oh,
772
00:41:50,700 --> 00:41:54,800
there's a cannibal This is not
just that it's so multi-layered
773
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:58,100
than that that I just so you
know I think there's also
774
00:41:58,100 --> 00:42:02,700
another layer of this that is
creepy is that they spend like
775
00:42:03,100 --> 00:42:05,500
you know the big storyline
throughout this is that they
776
00:42:05,500 --> 00:42:09,700
spend time hoping not to get
bitten by other humans and then
777
00:42:09,700 --> 00:42:12,600
this group of people is
willingly eating other humans.
778
00:42:12,700 --> 00:42:16,400
Yeah I mean she almost saved
herself when they were about to
779
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,100
chop her up and she's like I'm
infected mmm.
780
00:42:19,100 --> 00:42:21,300
Which you know don't tell people
that you were bitten and
781
00:42:21,300 --> 00:42:23,400
infected because we have the
safe Flee, get you to the
782
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,300
Firefly this what that was her
last resort that you have only
783
00:42:26,300 --> 00:42:28,800
thing she had to use at that
point and I'm curious.
784
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,800
I mean, I would assume that if
somebody is in fact, it and
785
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,000
somebody ate infected meat, I
would assume that they would get
786
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:40,600
infected but also so she's I
mean is she technically infected
787
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,300
She Was Bitten.
Yeah.
788
00:42:42,300 --> 00:42:44,900
Doesn't have the effects of the
infection but if she bites
789
00:42:44,900 --> 00:42:51,300
someone, do they get infected?
Oh, um, well you know I don't
790
00:42:51,300 --> 00:42:55,200
know, maybe not Maybe it will,
it's probably one of the so you
791
00:42:55,207 --> 00:42:56,700
guys, I'm not a scientist, I
don't know.
792
00:42:56,700 --> 00:43:00,400
I'm not like, I don't know, I'm
not a disease ologist and stuff
793
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,600
like that, but like these are
you would think that everybody
794
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,200
would be after the pandemic.
But no, no, I mean it's probably
795
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,500
one of those things where it's
in her, but it's not active,
796
00:43:09,700 --> 00:43:11,600
it's like HPV.
Yeah.
797
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:16,500
But so I mean, because the
readers that show, if you're
798
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:20,000
infected or not shows that she
is infected, so, whatever it's
799
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,500
reading, it could still show
that.
800
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:24,000
She's so very early.
Sure, but she might not be able
801
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,800
to pass it.
Meow, I guess.
802
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,200
No, I guess.
Yeah, Neil druckmann.
803
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,100
Tell us.
Hello.
804
00:43:34,700 --> 00:43:36,600
We're asking a very important
question.
805
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,100
How about this?
Ebenbolter, if you're listening
806
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:43,800
to this text Neil druckmann and
then tell him to go onto
807
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:44,700
Twitter.
Yeah.
808
00:43:44,700 --> 00:43:46,600
And at a bite of pot.
Yes.
809
00:43:47,100 --> 00:43:49,300
An answer.
Although he bites somebody.
810
00:43:49,700 --> 00:43:52,200
Do they become infected
important?
811
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,900
This is an important question.
Yeah.
812
00:43:53,900 --> 00:43:55,700
Or if anybody knows, just
comment below.
813
00:43:55,700 --> 00:43:57,700
Yeah.
Comment below.
814
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:06,800
So we have one more episode
left, one more episode and it
815
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,400
looks to be a lot.
I've heard I heard that it's
816
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,100
like 45 minutes really?
Which makes it like the
817
00:44:13,100 --> 00:44:15,400
shortest.
I think it seems like two hours.
818
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,800
No like wild crazy to me.
We're supposed to get fireflies
819
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,200
again because that's the end of
the first game.
820
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:27,200
Apparently, they're adding Anna,
who is Ellie's mom into this?
821
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,800
Played by the voice actor, that
voice Telly.
822
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,300
That's so cool.
So cool.
823
00:44:31,700 --> 00:44:36,000
And also, the journey to get to
the Firefly, so it had to be
824
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,600
five minutes.
Yeah, it's gonna be bam, bam,
825
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:39,800
bam.
Yeah, yeah.
826
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:45,000
And I believe Bella Ramsey said
that the season finale is going
827
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,600
to divide people dramatically.
It's going to be such a
828
00:44:48,607 --> 00:44:50,100
cliffhanger.
I know it.
829
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,500
I got is going to be brutal.
I mean, Imagine we're going to
830
00:44:53,500 --> 00:44:56,400
have like we're going to wait
two years for season 2.
831
00:44:56,700 --> 00:45:00,500
I'm going to be like please show
the last season on the Last of
832
00:45:00,500 --> 00:45:02,900
Us.
Yeah two years like a remember
833
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,800
or just listen to this podcast
that's true, I'll just set
834
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,500
aside.
Nine hours to listen to us
835
00:45:08,500 --> 00:45:09,900
again.
Oh man.
836
00:45:09,900 --> 00:45:14,100
Alright well next week the
finale this is it.
837
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:19,200
This was the penultimate episode
whoo finale next week and yeah,
838
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:24,300
so hopefully the next thing that
we talked about Will Beyond sad,
839
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,900
fingers crossed, please.
We'll see, and Maids, tale
840
00:45:27,900 --> 00:45:29,700
coming up next.
Oh my gosh.
841
00:45:30,300 --> 00:45:32,600
All three.
Four seasons, and the books.
842
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,800
No.
All right.
