The second episode of TheLastOfUs takes us to the streets of Boston, as Joel and Tess attempt to get Ellie to the Fireflies. Our recap:
Editor's note: The following contains spoilers for the second episode of The Last of Us.After the first episode of The Last of Us, “When You’re Lost in the Darkness,” with its tragic flashback between Joel and Sarah , the reveal that Ellie might be the only person who is immune to the cordyceps infection that has decimated the world, and presenting us the characters and horrific world that this story will take place in, the show’s second episode is much quieter, yet almost as heartbreaking.
She is then taken to the corpse from which this sample was taken—a bullet in the middle of the corpse’s forehead. When Ratna investigates the corpse’s ankle, she finds a human bite mark, and upon cutting the bite, she finds fungi inside. When she goes to explore the corpse’s mouth, she finds tendrils, moving and seeping out of her mouth, before Ratna understandably runs away in fear.
While Ellie goes off to pee, Joel and Tess discuss their new traveling partner. Tess believes it must be real since she didn't turn in the night, but Joel believes it’ll happen eventually. While Joel wants to return her to the Boston quarantine zone, Tess sees Ellie as the best way to get the supplies Marlene promised.
As they look out on a balcony at the hotel, Ellie sees her first swarm of infected, many dead, but some still scrounging around. Ellie says that they're connected, and Tess mentions that the fungus grows underground and connects them, so if one finds you, there's the possibility even more nearby can find you just as easily. Even though Ellie is immune to being infected, Tess reminds her that she isn't immune from getting ripped apart.
Luck Runs Out When they get to the building, there are no signs of the Fireflies anywhere, but a truck covered in blood, a body outside, and a trail of blood leading into the State House aren't exactly promising. As they enter, they find the Fireflies dead, and it looks like one of them got sick, which led to a bloodbath where everyone lost. But Tess remains determined to find answers as to where the Fireflies were taking Ellie, and Joel says that it’s over, that they should just go home.
