on the patron right now, and the celebration of the

27
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,959
Final Reckoning. I did a side quest last week where

28
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,439
me and Dylan covered Oblivion and the Nintendo switch to

29
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,359
and then we did an after nine watch along you

30
00:01:35,879 --> 00:01:37,319
and Me and Travis and Dylan.

31
00:01:37,359 --> 00:01:40,599
Speaker 3: That was a lot of fun. And then Travis has

32
00:01:40,599 --> 00:01:43,480
a side quest tomorrow will we drop in I guess

33
00:01:43,519 --> 00:01:47,280
Tuesday or something like that, And then what else is cooking?

34
00:01:47,519 --> 00:01:48,400
What do we got going on?

35
00:01:48,879 --> 00:01:52,359
Speaker 2: We got and or reviews coming? Oh yes, it's the

36
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,599
week of Thunderbolts, which still doesn't feel real to me,

37
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,480
even though I have my tickets. It feels like it's

38
00:01:58,519 --> 00:02:00,640
just totally sneaking up on me like a ghost.

39
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:03,079
Speaker 3: Yeah.

40
00:02:03,159 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like you already got the big

41
00:02:05,319 --> 00:02:07,959
one Sinner's reviews on the feeds, so go check that out.

42
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,639
Got a couple other movies coming out here pretty soon.

43
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:13,639
But yeah, lots of reviews, lots are just usual stuff.

44
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,759
We got a week weekly Geek this week. I think

45
00:02:15,759 --> 00:02:19,199
that's me and Dylan, the Whalers coming together. So yeah, Whalers,

46
00:02:19,439 --> 00:02:22,080
keep your eyes on the feeds, you know, because.

47
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 3: You mentioned and I'm just I'm just gonna say it.

48
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,479
Speaker 1: Because Star Wars Rent of the Sith is in theaters

49
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,560
until Wednesday.

50
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 3: Here, I think you you should, you should go see it.

51
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,039
Speaker 2: I did not get outside that I had too many

52
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,199
You episodes to watch right here.

53
00:02:34,719 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, which I guess there there will be a You

54
00:02:37,479 --> 00:02:40,879
season five fin oat final review coming out on our feeds.

55
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:42,319
Speaker 3: But yeah, you should definitely go see it.

56
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: Watching Revenge in the theaters, like Order sixty six, I

57
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,680
had tears and like the intro, I had goosebumps. I

58
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:53,000
could feel it multiple sequences, just goosebumps. Like I think, Uh,

59
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,000
I think it will reinvigorate your love for Star Wars

60
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,120
and you'll just you'll just you'll be oh.

61
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: My doors only doing that. So it might be a

62
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:01,840
good time.

63
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: To stack oh oh yeah, I mean corn buckets, no,

64
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,800
no popcorn pockets, nothing fancy. But we did get a popcorn,

65
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,680
We did get drinks and all that and just regular Yeah,

66
00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:15,599
because it's you're in there for two and a half

67
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:18,120
hours and it's yeah, damn good time.

68
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,159
Speaker 2: Oh hell, Yeah, I'm glad you enjoyed it, and that's awesome.

69
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, but anyways, ask for damn good times? How how

70
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:25,719
is this? Was this a damn good time or damn

71
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,080
bad time for you? Kirkland?

72
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: I think this is a pretty damn good time. Coming

73
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,719
off of last week's episode of course boiler free for

74
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,439
the first little port here, I definitely would have assumed

75
00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:40,120
it would be a slower episode of just picking up

76
00:03:40,159 --> 00:03:44,199
the pieces of the big yeah, just the big house

77
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:49,000
that came crashing down last week, and it definitely was that.

78
00:03:49,199 --> 00:03:53,479
I think there's some really strong performances in here, and yeah,

79
00:03:53,599 --> 00:03:56,280
just a lot of kind of grieving going on because

80
00:03:56,319 --> 00:03:59,360
of what happened last week. And I think for the

81
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,080
most part, I thought it was done really well. I

82
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,240
think I could have maybe even taken a few more

83
00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:09,080
scenes of certain characters I don't know, interact with each other,

84
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:12,199
or maybe just longer sequences. They'll maybe highlight what that

85
00:04:12,319 --> 00:04:14,199
is when we get into the spoiler section. But yeah,

86
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,719
I think it was a good episode. I think it

87
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,480
definitely has me excited for what's to come next week.

88
00:04:19,759 --> 00:04:23,839
And it's interesting because I played a little bit of

89
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,639
like the first last of us so in last season,

90
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,199
I feel like I had a somewhat of an idea

91
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,120
for at least part of the season, whereas I feel

92
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,480
like now, I mean more so than I already was

93
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,000
because of a certain thing that already happened. In this season,

94
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,240
I'm completely in the like just in the blind. I

95
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,399
have no idea what's going to be coming, who we're

96
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:47,040
going to be interacting with. So I am really just

97
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,560
intrigued by where we are, I think by the end

98
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,720
of this episode, and yeah, just kind of where we're

99
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:57,160
going and yeah, no, I'm ready to kick some ass

100
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,920
with our protagonists here, So yeah, let's do it.

101
00:05:00,399 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 3: Well said, yeah, I've played.

102
00:05:03,319 --> 00:05:05,399
Speaker 1: I'm being the first one, but I've played the first one,

103
00:05:05,399 --> 00:05:08,879
and so to make those comparisons in that season.

104
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,319
Speaker 3: To that game, it was, yeah, it was.

105
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: It was easy, and I could kind of predict what

106
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,120
was gonna happen because obviously, like I said, I played

107
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,920
the game. But with this, this is totally unsure waters

108
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,720
And I wasn't here for last week's review, but I

109
00:05:25,759 --> 00:05:29,639
had a hunch and inkling that Joel does die, and

110
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:34,000
so spoilers, yes, when I get when we watched last

111
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,319
week's episode of that Holy crap.

112
00:05:35,319 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, they went with it.

113
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: I didn't think they're gonna do it that quickly, and

114
00:05:38,959 --> 00:05:41,480
I didn't know at what instance in the game it happens.

115
00:05:41,759 --> 00:05:42,879
Speaker 3: Didn't know if it was in the middle or the

116
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,199
beginning or the end whatnot. But yeah, here we are.

117
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,399
Speaker 1: It happened pretty quickly. And I just don't like Abby.

118
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,680
I think the actress is great, she's doing a fantastic job.

119
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,240
And Abby, it's the character. I just hate her. But

120
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,560
of course there's justification in her actions because her father

121
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,439
was murdered by Joel, so you know.

122
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,519
Speaker 3: Revenge, that kind of stuff. But I think you see

123
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:04,920
I think you're gonna see the.

124
00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: Like a parallel where Abby and Ellie are very similar

125
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:14,319
but different at the same time. And yeah, you can

126
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,480
see like the people that Joel in retrospect has created

127
00:06:18,519 --> 00:06:20,680
through his actions, and then you're gonna see Ellie is

128
00:06:20,759 --> 00:06:23,759
someone like through also through his actions.

129
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,639
Speaker 3: Like he's he's done bad things.

130
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: But you're gonna get you're gonna see two outcomes and

131
00:06:28,959 --> 00:06:31,439
two different people because of that. You're gonna see Abby

132
00:06:31,959 --> 00:06:34,040
as an outcome of Joel's actions, and you're gonna see

133
00:06:34,079 --> 00:06:36,360
Ellie as an outcome of Joel's actions, and I just

134
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:36,920
think it's okay.

135
00:06:36,959 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 3: It's how he kind of continues on.

136
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: You're gonna see how that is impacting this world still

137
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,279
because of what he's done with.

138
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,079
Speaker 3: These two characters or to these two characters.

139
00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:48,399
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm I'm really feeling good about this episode.

140
00:06:48,439 --> 00:06:50,000
Like I said, I don't know how it compares to

141
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,480
the game. I don't know what to be expecting now

142
00:06:52,519 --> 00:06:55,480
at this point, and there's a lot that I just

143
00:06:56,079 --> 00:06:58,920
I have questions. I don't know who certain things are,

144
00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:01,800
who certain groups are in this what's going on?

145
00:07:01,959 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 2: Really?

146
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,519
Speaker 1: And so I feel like a lost dog with without

147
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,800
a bone, without a leash, no owner, no chip in

148
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:08,240
my ear.

149
00:07:08,319 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 3: I just it's very lost.

150
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: So goes protocol dog version.

151
00:07:12,839 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.

152
00:07:14,439 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: So I mean I don't have I won't have the

153
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,079
ability to answer many answers if you have, or answer

154
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:21,560
any questions that you have.

155
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll just speculate today. Yeah, there'll be no answers given.

156
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,759
Speaker 3: To us, That's right. Uh be anything else you want

157
00:07:29,759 --> 00:07:31,319
to drop on spoilers before we crack on?

158
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: Uh No, I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think

159
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,360
there's anything else to really add cool?

160
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:41,759
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, we're gonna get at it in three two

161
00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:42,879
one after this ad.

162
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 3: Break and we are back. So where do you want

163
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:48,600
to start?

164
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:49,439
Speaker 1: Uh?

165
00:07:49,519 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean last week ended very probably the heaviest

166
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,720
moment of the entire series. Of course, you know, the

167
00:07:56,759 --> 00:07:59,920
departure of the great Pedro Pascal in the show, Joel.

168
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,439
I have an inkling that we'll see at least a

169
00:08:04,439 --> 00:08:07,800
like a Joel appearance, whether it's like a flashback or something,

170
00:08:08,519 --> 00:08:11,319
or I don't know, Ellie Seaton Forest ghosts or something

171
00:08:11,399 --> 00:08:14,759
and Joel speaking to her. I'm sure we'll see him

172
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:18,160
at some point before the show's all all done. But yeah,

173
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,480
he was killed off last week and then entering this one,

174
00:08:21,519 --> 00:08:23,600
of course, it's picking up the pieces from that, and

175
00:08:24,519 --> 00:08:26,399
I would have assumed, you know, for it to be

176
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:29,480
very heavy. I wasn't disappointed. I think maybe I just

177
00:08:29,519 --> 00:08:33,120
wanted a little bit more of like the grieving, whether

178
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,559
it was a little bit more of like Ellie Dina

179
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:40,919
like that, like I don't know, just talking about what happened.

180
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,399
We did get it, but I think it was a

181
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,759
little bit shorter, especially because what we were getting on screen.

182
00:08:47,159 --> 00:08:48,919
I really liked it. Like, I just think those two

183
00:08:48,919 --> 00:08:52,360
are fantastic together on screen. So I think I maybe

184
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,679
just would have wanted like a little bit more of

185
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,960
an extended sequence or even like the Tommy stuff. It

186
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,240
seemed like Ellie and him kind of talk like briefly

187
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,200
about it and it's it's all really good. And I

188
00:09:05,279 --> 00:09:07,279
think that just adds to why I wanted it to

189
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,399
be a longer sequence because it was just that great.

190
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,840
But uh yeah, I don't know it did. It's a yeah,

191
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,600
just just great performance by Bella Ramsay of just showing

192
00:09:16,639 --> 00:09:18,360
like the grief when she goes into the closet and

193
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,320
it's kind of just uh yeah, finding his clothes. That

194
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:23,080
was that was getting me a little choked up. So

195
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,240
I think they they executed that sequence really really well.

196
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,480
And yeah, she she kind of had to just you know,

197
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,360
have her moment of of grievance and then now she's

198
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,480
just uh just just rate a kick ass and get

199
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,519
that revolver into the into the head of Abby. So well, uh,

200
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,519
we'll see what's to come out. How do you feel

201
00:09:43,519 --> 00:09:45,919
that they did with the whole grieving factor, because of

202
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,799
course it's not just Ellie that lost someone, because the

203
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:51,799
whole town obviously lost a lot of people in the uh,

204
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,919
the infected raid on on the town of Jackson, and

205
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,000
then yeah, just other people that were really fond of

206
00:09:59,039 --> 00:10:01,399
Joel and kind of what his role was in the town.

207
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's it's tough, and the episode definitely feels

208
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,480
empty because Bella Ramsay does a great job at making

209
00:10:09,519 --> 00:10:10,440
it feel.

210
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,039
Speaker 3: Like we've we've lost something.

211
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,159
Speaker 1: Obviously, the presence of Pedro Bascal not being around is

212
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,919
definitely that carries its own weight, but that has sold

213
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:20,600
even more.

214
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,399
Speaker 3: Because of the acting and the performances by.

215
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,919
Speaker 1: The co cast with Joel's brother, you can feel it

216
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,879
there when Joel's not around, and when Allie goes into

217
00:10:28,919 --> 00:10:34,159
that house, it just feels empty and something's missing there.

218
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,799
And yeah, he just she she takes the watch.

219
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 3: I think she took the watch, you know, she.

220
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,039
Speaker 1: Was looking at it, but he takes the gun and

221
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,440
just has that moment of weakness where she's holding onto

222
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,240
the the jacket and it just you're looking at her

223
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,200
in the situation and it just it's a moment of

224
00:10:51,279 --> 00:10:53,360
weakness with her, and it's a character that you don't

225
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:54,039
really see a lot of.

226
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,159
Speaker 3: Weakness emanating off of.

227
00:10:55,279 --> 00:10:57,799
Speaker 1: So it's it's really adding some more depth to her,

228
00:10:59,279 --> 00:11:01,120
and you get.

229
00:11:00,919 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 3: A little bit of her just obviously.

230
00:11:04,759 --> 00:11:07,039
Speaker 1: Putting up her shields when she's dealing with Gail and

231
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,080
other characters as well, But it's just that's her classic

232
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,639
defense system. She's becoming a lot more complex, but a

233
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:16,480
lot more.

234
00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:20,919
Speaker 3: What would be the word for that.

235
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,879
Speaker 1: Well, I like how Joel's brother had put it, you know,

236
00:11:27,039 --> 00:11:29,879
with this conversation with Gail, that they were worried about, oh,

237
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,519
she could be too much like Joel, and it's like, well,

238
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:38,039
you know, Joel is there ten percent, Like nurturing has

239
00:11:38,159 --> 00:11:39,360
kind of gone off onto her.

240
00:11:39,399 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 3: But nature is the other thing. You know.

241
00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: You can nurture someone, but nature will kind of dictate

242
00:11:44,279 --> 00:11:48,120
who they become. And I feel like it'll be interesting

243
00:11:48,159 --> 00:11:50,360
to see how Ellie.

244
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 3: Grows into that a little bit more.

245
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: And I was talking about the non spoilers with Joel's

246
00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:57,840
actions and how it results in Abby and with Ellie,

247
00:11:57,919 --> 00:12:00,080
and well, there's a little bit of that percentage that

248
00:12:00,159 --> 00:12:01,919
it's nurture and the rest is nature. I think that's

249
00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:05,240
where're gonna see Ellie turn into someone who and I

250
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:06,960
haven't played the game, I'll.

251
00:12:06,879 --> 00:12:08,759
Speaker 3: Reiterate that again, so I don't know what is going

252
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:09,200
to happen.

253
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna just, you know, make a guess here

254
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,720
that she's going to make a call similar to what

255
00:12:15,799 --> 00:12:19,080
Joel did and protecting her and saving her, and she'll

256
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,919
do that in another instance that makes her.

257
00:12:21,159 --> 00:12:28,279
Speaker 3: Better than Abby, Yes the doctor, that's right. Yeah, I'll

258
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:28,799
save them.

259
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,519
Speaker 1: But I think she is just she's really really fantastic,

260
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,159
and I really like getting this little bit of an

261
00:12:36,159 --> 00:12:39,399
adventure with her when they leave town and she's running

262
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,840
off to go do her thing, trying to find the

263
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,519
not the Fireflies anymore, because now they're the WLF, the wolves,

264
00:12:45,879 --> 00:12:48,440
which I don't have any answers about them. I wish

265
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,120
I knew a little bit more about this outfit because

266
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,720
they seem extremely.

267
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 3: Well armed, oh my goodness.

268
00:12:56,279 --> 00:12:58,039
Speaker 1: So I'd like to know a little bit more about

269
00:12:58,039 --> 00:12:59,720
what they're up to and what they're doing. They just

270
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,000
seem like there are a whole military groups. They don't

271
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,200
seem like they have really anything else, and Seattle just

272
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,360
seems like a complete wasteland. So are they just living

273
00:13:09,399 --> 00:13:12,600
in like run down skyscrapers. They haven't set up any walls,

274
00:13:12,639 --> 00:13:15,120
any perimeters, like what's what's going on? But it also

275
00:13:15,159 --> 00:13:17,559
seems like there's no effected in Seattle too, And obviously

276
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,720
I'm kind of branching off here from from Ellie, so

277
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:22,720
I won't go too far.

278
00:13:22,919 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, yeah, no, I'm I'm very curious as to

279
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,840
what the whole goal is now, right of the Wolves,

280
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,120
because of course we knew what the Fireflies general goal

281
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,480
was with just the whole cure stuff, but we're beyond that.

282
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,559
So is it just they're preparing for war? Who knows

283
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,639
what's going on? It? It is funny though, because yeah,

284
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:44,919
I haven't played the game, but just getting introduced to

285
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,039
these like newish factions now with like the Wolves, you

286
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,879
have like the fucking the Jokers out there, with like

287
00:13:50,919 --> 00:13:54,440
the slit cheeks they got they got fucked up pretty easily.

288
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,720
But they just seem like new like enemies you know

289
00:13:57,759 --> 00:13:59,840
that you'd be coming across in your adventure if you're

290
00:14:00,159 --> 00:14:02,240
if you're playing this game, it's like, oh, gotta watch

291
00:14:02,279 --> 00:14:05,919
out for for the for these enemies now. So just

292
00:14:05,919 --> 00:14:08,360
like seeing the little gamisms in there's is fun. But

293
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,399
uh yeah, I know, I uh, I I found it

294
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:16,679
interesting too. Just finishing off some ally thoughts how they

295
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,399
got her to I don't know, kind of speak up

296
00:14:19,399 --> 00:14:21,080
at the meeting because it just seemed like something that

297
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,200
she like a characteristic that she definitely would never really

298
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,919
be going for. But this is like the most realistic

299
00:14:27,919 --> 00:14:31,039
way to to kind of win the vote of the town,

300
00:14:31,159 --> 00:14:32,879
even though at the end of the day she doesn't

301
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,360
care if nobody's going, she's going. And I liked how

302
00:14:37,799 --> 00:14:41,399
when you know, she kind of gets caught by Dina

303
00:14:41,519 --> 00:14:43,519
when she's trying to sneak out of the town, Dina

304
00:14:43,639 --> 00:14:45,320
not for like a single second was trying to like

305
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,159
convince her to not do it, Like right away she

306
00:14:47,279 --> 00:14:50,000
was she was ready to go with her. I imagine

307
00:14:50,039 --> 00:14:52,080
that's pretty similar to how it goes in the game.

308
00:14:52,919 --> 00:14:54,759
But yeah, no, I I think those two are just

309
00:14:54,759 --> 00:14:58,000
so fantastic together. And I don't know, it really just

310
00:14:58,399 --> 00:15:02,480
maybe shows the uh the level of bonding that obviously

311
00:15:02,559 --> 00:15:04,960
Joel and Ellie had, but also Dina and Joel because

312
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,879
we didn't really get to see a lot of that

313
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:11,320
on screen. So yeah, I know, I love Dina. She's fantastic.

314
00:15:12,759 --> 00:15:18,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, she's really really awesome. And again it's

315
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,879
it's a character that I don't know a lot about,

316
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:28,639
but she's definitely whipping out maps and whipping out all

317
00:15:28,679 --> 00:15:31,039
these details and facts. She can smell when the rain's

318
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,679
coming and and all that.

319
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 2: So it's got that rain elbow that my mom's got. Yeah,

320
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,039
she's going to rain.

321
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

322
00:15:38,639 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: So I'm really I'm really liking her character a lot.

323
00:15:40,799 --> 00:15:43,159
She's she's a lot of fun. And I again, I

324
00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:44,480
didn't know what was gonna happen. I thought she was

325
00:15:44,519 --> 00:15:46,399
gonna die after she was having this kind of like

326
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,600
more intimate connection with with Ellie. I thought that when

327
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,039
the attack happened no before in the last episode. I

328
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:54,840
thought last episode she was gonna get it. And when

329
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,279
she didn't get it from them, the Clickers, and I

330
00:15:57,279 --> 00:15:58,799
thought for sure she was going to get it when

331
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,399
they were Joel kind of the former Fireflies.

332
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: Beat out of her. Yeah, after killing Joel, you killed

333
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,120
a really bad day for Ellie. If she comes into that.

334
00:16:10,639 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 3: That would be, that would be.

335
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: But she's she's definitely a Yeah, she's like a she's

336
00:16:15,399 --> 00:16:18,039
a trooper. She's got all the details, the knowledge, everything

337
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,080
like that. And she's got the contacts because she's got

338
00:16:21,519 --> 00:16:25,000
Life of Crutch there on her payroll to get him

339
00:16:25,159 --> 00:16:26,720
get her all the supplies.

340
00:16:26,799 --> 00:16:31,879
Speaker 2: Right. So yeah, Yeah, the bigot from last week's episode

341
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,480
I think it was last week's episode, or it might

342
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:34,480
have been the first episode.

343
00:16:34,559 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 3: The first episode. Yeah, at the party.

344
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 2: No, I like that moment when uh again, like just

345
00:16:39,879 --> 00:16:41,840
going back to the town meeting and everybody's kind of

346
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,679
given their their opinion on what's going on. He's just

347
00:16:45,679 --> 00:16:48,799
like calling everybody out. They come in here, they're pissing

348
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,600
in her eye. I like that line that dropped there,

349
00:16:52,639 --> 00:16:56,200
but uh yeah, I know it was an unlikely ally,

350
00:16:56,279 --> 00:16:57,919
but I liked how it kind of worked out and

351
00:16:57,919 --> 00:17:00,360
he gave her, you know, the trade for a much

352
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:00,799
better right.

353
00:17:01,639 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it looked so clean.

354
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: It looked like it was right out of like a

355
00:17:04,759 --> 00:17:06,799
fresh gunshot that like it did.

356
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it looked absolutely ment.

357
00:17:09,279 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 2: That was like a battle pass rifle he gave her.

358
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:11,920
It's got a skin on it.

359
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: And everything's right trace her back, yeah, thirty dollars pack. Yeah,

360
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,839
he's definitely kind of turned things around there. And you know,

361
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,240
the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and that's

362
00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:30,480
that's what happens here. That's they were attacked, and so

363
00:17:30,559 --> 00:17:33,480
they're kind of unifying together. And when they did that,

364
00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:35,839
the whole voting thing with the council, I think I

365
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,640
feel like I could pick out which three probably voted

366
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,640
yes for them to go, And wasn't just people.

367
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,519
Speaker 4: For sure, just no, no, no, yeah, he absolutely said no,

368
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:50,480
he's a by the book character for sure, but everything

369
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,839
in that sequence when yeah tested it up.

370
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,759
Speaker 1: And he was like piston in her eyes and whatnot,

371
00:17:54,759 --> 00:17:57,119
and like at the end of the meeting and everyone's

372
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,640
getting up to leave and he's just sitting there holding

373
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,319
his cane and he's just staring at them, just intimidatingly.

374
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,279
Speaker 2: So but.

375
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we'll see if he's still around to come

376
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,920
the end of the season, if our two heroes make

377
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,599
it back, which I have no idea if they will,

378
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,200
so true, Yeah, but I'm glad to see the town

379
00:18:18,319 --> 00:18:20,799
is kind of rebuilt and kind of making a comeback.

380
00:18:20,799 --> 00:18:23,279
We had a three month time jump, which was quite

381
00:18:23,279 --> 00:18:24,119
a bit of time.

382
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: But okay, yeah, I missed that detail. I didn't know

383
00:18:28,039 --> 00:18:30,119
what the exact timeframe was. Do you think we're going

384
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,680
to be seeing a lot more of the town or like,

385
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,200
I'm sure we will still see it, just because we

386
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,720
have familiar faces there, like the Tommy's and such, But

387
00:18:40,839 --> 00:18:43,920
I don't know, I can see us maybe spending a

388
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,799
lot more time, which just kind of Seattle. Now, especially

389
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,680
for next week episode, I.

390
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: Don't think we're going to see the town until the

391
00:18:50,799 --> 00:18:56,160
last two maybe real final episode. I think yeah, because

392
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,039
there's no one back on the town that we really

393
00:18:58,079 --> 00:19:00,319
need to go to. I can't see us really needed

394
00:19:00,319 --> 00:19:03,400
to go back to Joel's brother right away.

395
00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 2: Seth his crutch.

396
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 3: You know they maybe they just like they beat the

397
00:19:10,039 --> 00:19:12,759
shout I'm telling us what you did? Where's where's Ellie?

398
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 2: They just beat the ship out of the poor guy

399
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:17,359
with the cane.

400
00:19:17,319 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 3: Just waterboarding him and stuff like that. I think you could.

401
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,319
Speaker 1: I think I think Joel's brother, Tommy, I think he

402
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,880
could maybe make an appearance, but not in the town.

403
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,480
I think that he could show up saving Ellie or

404
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,680
like Ellie and you could caught in a situation. But

405
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:39,480
maybe just maybe because they left, that's going to force

406
00:19:39,599 --> 00:19:41,680
the council's hand to send people to go and save them,

407
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,839
because it's kind of maybe this's a fore shadow because

408
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,720
Tommy said that when Ellie was countering him with the

409
00:19:47,759 --> 00:19:50,880
fact that hey, if you were gone or taken or

410
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,279
whatever out there, like Joel would be leaving immediately to

411
00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:54,680
go and get you. And he's like, yeah, if I

412
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,920
was alive, but if you know, if I was dead, that's.

413
00:19:56,799 --> 00:20:00,319
Speaker 3: A different story. So maybe that's the case here.

414
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: Because Ellie and Dina are out there, it might prompt

415
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,559
them to actually be responsive and send a task force

416
00:20:07,599 --> 00:20:10,079
out to deal with this. I don't know how well

417
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,920
sixteen people are gonna do, though, because these guys have

418
00:20:13,599 --> 00:20:14,799
I don't even know what the vehicles call.

419
00:20:15,039 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's like an APC.

420
00:20:16,519 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: Armor personnel carrier and then like two hum v's and

421
00:20:20,039 --> 00:20:23,039
then they got a whole platoon of soldiers ready to go,

422
00:20:23,079 --> 00:20:25,119
and these guys have military training. We don't know who

423
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,680
the leader is, but it's just it's it's a conflict

424
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,680
that we don't know how that's gonna unfold. Really as well,

425
00:20:32,839 --> 00:20:34,759
maybe we do. It's not gonna go well for our

426
00:20:34,799 --> 00:20:39,559
team in Jackson. I feel like that is evident based

427
00:20:39,599 --> 00:20:43,400
on this. As you said, the Jokers, the little religious

428
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,400
prophetic group that just.

429
00:20:45,319 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 3: Got fucking bopped.

430
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: They're whistling didn't save them. So whistling I feel like

431
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,960
as a giveaway more than a save saving grace.

432
00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:54,039
Speaker 2: Whistling, I don't know it's coming over here.

433
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,079
Speaker 3: Let's cool, exactly.

434
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know to add to, Uh, what's it

435
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,680
gonna say? Any anything else in the I don't think

436
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,480
I have anything else really on the town. Do you

437
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:14,680
feel like I think we see like a I could

438
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,359
see not next week's episode, but like at least the

439
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,599
week after at least like a little check in. I'm

440
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,839
just kind of what's going on because Dina and Ellie also,

441
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,799
like you know, snuck away, So I would imagine we

442
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:29,599
at least see like the reaction to the Tommy's and

443
00:21:29,599 --> 00:21:31,079
the other people that are in the town.

444
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 3: The interrogating sets.

445
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe Jesse like goes after them or something. I

446
00:21:42,079 --> 00:21:45,039
don't know. He seems pretty castrated though I don't think

447
00:21:45,079 --> 00:21:45,720
he's doing anything.

448
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 3: He's fuck.

449
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,079
Speaker 2: And then yeah, and then you just mentioned the the Jokers,

450
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,960
that that religious group. I imagine there's more of them

451
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,839
out there or did they just get sand peopled.

452
00:22:04,319 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 3: I don't completely. I hope, I hope there's more.

453
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: I would like to learn more about it, but maybe

454
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,720
there really isn't anything else to learn from.

455
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,519
Speaker 2: It be so weird though, to let they have like

456
00:22:13,559 --> 00:22:16,000
this symbol. It's like they never explain why their faces

457
00:22:16,039 --> 00:22:19,200
look like that. They're whistling who this profit is? So

458
00:22:19,519 --> 00:22:21,319
if we just never seen them again. It's like, why

459
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,279
even get introduced to this? So I would imagine we're

460
00:22:25,319 --> 00:22:28,200
gonna see it and then who knows, maybe eventually see

461
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,359
this profit type person, even though he does mention that

462
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,880
she was dead, right, so she's been dead ten years.

463
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so apparently I guess like a profit will appear

464
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:38,839
every once in a while.

465
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 3: And I thought they were.

466
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: This guy was kind of foreshadowing, oh this, you know,

467
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,640
my little daughter here is going to become the next

468
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,680
prophet or something like that. But they religiously hold on

469
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,319
to their hammers as weapons.

470
00:22:50,839 --> 00:22:53,279
Speaker 3: They don't seem to use guns of any kind.

471
00:22:53,640 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 1: So still probably should have heard group, Probably should have Yeah.

472
00:23:01,319 --> 00:23:04,799
Speaker 2: And then yeah, so was it the wolves that murdered them?

473
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,119
Is that they're because at some point don't they say

474
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,039
there's like there's monsters or yeah.

475
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,599
Speaker 3: The girls like monsters and he's like, worse, it's wolves.

476
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then I think it transitions to Ellie's drawn

477
00:23:17,519 --> 00:23:20,200
or Dina's drawn photo of the wolf symbol, like that's

478
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:21,960
the scene like jumps from that to that. That's when

479
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:26,119
Ellie's doing some boxing with the heavy bag with Jesse there.

480
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,960
So yeah, the wolves, uh, you know, not only tortured

481
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,759
and murdered or are protagonist Joel Miller. But I suppose

482
00:23:33,759 --> 00:23:36,319
he murdered this whole group, including children, which is pretty

483
00:23:36,519 --> 00:23:40,279
fucked up. And we didn't see obviously faces we didn't

484
00:23:40,319 --> 00:23:43,519
see Abby at all in this episode, or I guess

485
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:46,240
we saw the one chap that got sliced up by

486
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:47,960
Ellie from last week. He was the guy in the

487
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:53,480
tower that was kind of on lookout that that's right, Yeah, right,

488
00:23:53,519 --> 00:23:56,359
so he would have been the only member from last

489
00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:00,119
week there. But yeah, I don't know. I'm curious to

490
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:04,000
see who exactly was directly involved with the the murder

491
00:24:04,039 --> 00:24:04,920
of the Whistlers.

492
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 1: And I thought he was actually gonna spot Ellie and

493
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,200
Dina when they asked him, like, hey, do a checkout

494
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:16,000
at Oh yeah, he's a ship talking his boss like

495
00:24:16,519 --> 00:24:19,920
I'm supposed to watch six. Oh it looks over there,

496
00:24:20,039 --> 00:24:22,480
You're all clear, and then just goes back to doing

497
00:24:22,519 --> 00:24:24,039
what he's doing terrible look out.

498
00:24:25,279 --> 00:24:29,599
Speaker 3: Yeah m m hmm. But I don't know what.

499
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: I don't know what to expect next week. I mean,

500
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,000
obviously they're going into Seattle and they're going to be

501
00:24:34,039 --> 00:24:34,720
looking for Abby.

502
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 3: Do you think we see Abby?

503
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 2: See Abby next week because we didn't see her at

504
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:44,720
all this week. I I know she's like you kind

505
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,119
of see a lot of the story through her eyes

506
00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:50,279
in the in the game for part two, So I

507
00:24:50,319 --> 00:24:52,279
am curious how much of that is going to be

508
00:24:52,759 --> 00:24:55,279
uh here in the TV show here of like how

509
00:24:55,319 --> 00:24:58,880
much we're just following her along because yeah, like like

510
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,359
you from last week, I think a lot of people

511
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,640
will feel the same way. I'm not a fan of

512
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,480
the Abby character for what was shown, and I think

513
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,599
it's mostly just because they really set her up to

514
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,680
be like a villain. She has a reason, but I

515
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,799
think the way that it was shown in the TV show,

516
00:25:17,559 --> 00:25:20,519
it's like hard for me to like defend her actions

517
00:25:20,599 --> 00:25:22,880
when she goes as far as she did of like

518
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,480
just torturing this guy as opposed to just quickly murdering

519
00:25:25,519 --> 00:25:29,160
him getting the revenge. Like she just beats the livering,

520
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:31,880
like literally the life out of him and then goes

521
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,920
for a graphic kill. So I think for what it

522
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,559
was shown in the TV show, I don't really feel

523
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,839
a lot of sympathy for that character, even though I

524
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,960
know that Joel killed her dad. So I'm curious if

525
00:25:43,039 --> 00:25:45,880
the show's gonna be trying to really sell me on

526
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,680
that on why I should be, Yeah, just sympathetic for

527
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,160
the character, because I think for what was shown so far,

528
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,519
they kind of failed at that if that's what we're

529
00:25:54,559 --> 00:25:57,680
going for, because I believe that's kind of how it's

530
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,240
mostly done in the video game. She's shown it little

531
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,599
bit more of a sympathetic light, but yeah, we'll see.

532
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,519
I really love Caitlyn Deaver as an actress. I think

533
00:26:05,519 --> 00:26:07,960
she's fantastic. I think she had a lot of just

534
00:26:08,039 --> 00:26:13,160
juicy showcasing of her ability in last week's episode. So yeah,

535
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,680
I'm curious how I feel like the thing I'm looking

536
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,279
forward to the most is just like the first face

537
00:26:18,319 --> 00:26:20,880
to face between her and Ellie at this point, because

538
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,279
they're both gone through a lot of stuff. People very

539
00:26:24,319 --> 00:26:27,759
close to them straight up father like figure murdered right

540
00:26:27,839 --> 00:26:30,400
in front of them. I guess the doctor wasn't murdered

541
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,359
right in front of her, but you got what I mean.

542
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:37,880
So I'm really looking forward to that, And I don't know,

543
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,160
I don't think it'll happen next week where they like

544
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,759
are actually interacting with each other, like maybe Ellie sees her,

545
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,559
but they don't actually straight up interact. But yeah, I'm

546
00:26:46,599 --> 00:26:50,079
gonna be looking forward to when that inevitable meetup happens.

547
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking forward to it too. It's gonna be

548
00:26:53,799 --> 00:26:54,960
it's gonna be juicy.

549
00:26:54,720 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 3: It's gonna be interesting. I had a their point that

550
00:27:01,279 --> 00:27:03,000
I wanted to bring up.

551
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 2: Shoot, was it on Abby Ellie?

552
00:27:12,039 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 3: It was in regards to Ellie. Yes, Okay, that's it.

553
00:27:16,079 --> 00:27:17,960
So after the.

554
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: Fallout of the attack and everything like that, we get

555
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,759
to see Ellie wakes up in the hospital wing and

556
00:27:23,799 --> 00:27:26,799
like everyone's freaking out and screaming. They had tubes connected

557
00:27:26,799 --> 00:27:28,200
to her because I think they were trying to just

558
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,359
like help bring her back, pump some drugs into her.

559
00:27:30,519 --> 00:27:31,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeahda.

560
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,039
Speaker 1: I first split second thought, okay, like they were taking

561
00:27:34,079 --> 00:27:36,240
blood from her and gonna do like a blood transfusion

562
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,799
and use her blood to help a bunch of other people,

563
00:27:37,839 --> 00:27:40,599
just because they were looking around and trying to they

564
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,559
need to help people. And I was thinking, Man, this

565
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,680
is fucked, because they're gonna be taking her blood, they're

566
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,400
gonna give to like fifty people, and they're on a

567
00:27:46,759 --> 00:27:49,839
tweak out and the clickers and just start killing everyone.

568
00:27:50,079 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 3: That was not what happened, well, because.

569
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: She gave her blood to that other boy that got

570
00:27:55,519 --> 00:27:57,799
bit or right a long time ago in season one

571
00:27:57,839 --> 00:28:02,200
and then the boy too. Yeah, right, so there is

572
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:03,960
that Is that because of the blood or because he

573
00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:08,599
was already infected? I thought he was probably because he's

574
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:13,039
already infected, But I imagine like her giving him infected.

575
00:28:12,519 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 3: Blood doesn't help the case.

576
00:28:14,799 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't know, it's hasn't been since

577
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,359
the size into a cure.

578
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:23,759
Speaker 3: You're probably right. Yeah, I'm trying to think what else

579
00:28:23,839 --> 00:28:26,240
I have on this episode.

580
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,039
Speaker 2: When they go through the graveyard there, I really like

581
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,799
that sequence. It was just really beautiful shot of just

582
00:28:32,839 --> 00:28:35,519
like the little tall hay fields with like the sunset

583
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,839
or sunrise whatever it was. I like how she gave

584
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,000
him his coffee beans. That was really nice touching moment

585
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,119
just really made me like, I feel like I completely

586
00:28:46,119 --> 00:28:48,759
forgot about like the coffee sequence from season one because

587
00:28:48,759 --> 00:28:51,039
I didn't rewatch these one leading up to this, But

588
00:28:51,119 --> 00:28:53,519
in that moment, it kind of just flashed me back

589
00:28:53,559 --> 00:28:55,359
to when they're in the car together kind of talking

590
00:28:55,359 --> 00:28:56,000
about coffee.

591
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:56,119
Speaker 1: You know.

592
00:28:56,279 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 2: I just again I got a little sentimental just thinking

593
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,839
of like, man, like what they've gone on through to

594
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,839
where they are now it was they still a touching moment.

595
00:29:04,839 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, coffee beans, growing corn.

596
00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 2: You know, it's one guy in the meeting he's like,

597
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,799
I don't have an opinion on the Seattle thing, but uh.

598
00:29:14,599 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: Should be investing in turkeys instead of turkeys over chickens.

599
00:29:18,359 --> 00:29:21,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, growing corn. Actually, while we're there, that guy, that

600
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,279
guy does not give a fuck about naming what's going on?

601
00:29:24,839 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 3: No, no, he's dancing on everyone's graves. He wants to

602
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,079
plant corn over over all the graves. That's what he

603
00:29:30,119 --> 00:29:30,559
wants to do.

604
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 2: Hear me out. We can use Joel's body its fertilizer for.

605
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, do you anything else?

606
00:29:40,839 --> 00:29:43,839
Speaker 2: Gail and Tommy had a little bit of a sit down, Yes,

607
00:29:44,279 --> 00:29:47,519
Gail and Ellie also actually she was kind of a

608
00:29:47,559 --> 00:29:50,119
therapist for a couple other people in the in the sequence.

609
00:29:51,759 --> 00:29:55,359
I just I love this this what's this actress's name again?

610
00:29:55,400 --> 00:30:01,640
I always forget it, But Catherine O'Hara, that's.

611
00:30:01,519 --> 00:30:02,599
Speaker 3: What it is.

612
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 2: Okay, not Catherine hahn but both equally fantastic. But yeah,

613
00:30:08,279 --> 00:30:13,039
know she's she's just a really like flawed therapist. But

614
00:30:13,119 --> 00:30:15,480
like there's no therapist for the therapists in this world,

615
00:30:15,519 --> 00:30:17,319
so she's just kind of doing what she can. You know,

616
00:30:17,359 --> 00:30:20,279
she's an alcoholic, she smokes weed all the time. She says,

617
00:30:22,079 --> 00:30:24,920
she's just really into this t ball game that's going on.

618
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,839
I don't know, I just found it to be a

619
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,880
fun little sequence. And then I don't know, it was

620
00:30:30,039 --> 00:30:33,720
it was fun to see a little sliver of just

621
00:30:33,799 --> 00:30:36,160
Tommy like kind of thinking about what's been going on.

622
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,599
And I think I could have taken a little bit

623
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:44,319
of a more of like the grieving Tommy in this moment,

624
00:30:44,319 --> 00:30:46,519
because we did lose Joel here, but I think for

625
00:30:46,599 --> 00:30:48,359
the little scenes that we did get, I did really

626
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,839
enjoy it. And then yeah, the moment between Gail and

627
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:56,400
Ellie also, I actually really liked because it just seems

628
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,240
like Ellie is always putting on like a face and

629
00:30:59,279 --> 00:31:01,319
like just trying to make it seem like she's tough.

630
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,400
So by the time that we get her alone and

631
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,720
like what we've already talked about, when she is just

632
00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:09,599
going through the house all alone without Joel, it just

633
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,559
seems like it's it's like a volcano that's like finally

634
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,000
erupting where she's just like always been pushing down these

635
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,720
feelings and it just, you know, just bubbled up to

636
00:31:17,759 --> 00:31:19,400
the surface and it just kind of exploded, and that's

637
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,720
when she is fall on in the heavy tears. So yeah,

638
00:31:22,759 --> 00:31:24,680
I thought it was just a good build up to

639
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,200
that moment from from the Gail in her little therapy

640
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,799
session to h yeah, where we get.

641
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: To m Yeah, I agree. Gail has definitely become a good,

642
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,079
good character, reinforcing kind of the thoughts of what our

643
00:31:40,119 --> 00:31:42,960
current characters going through, and like, like I said, already

644
00:31:43,039 --> 00:31:45,200
giving out that really really good line about the nurturing

645
00:31:45,279 --> 00:31:47,799
and the nature when it comes to Ellie and who

646
00:31:47,839 --> 00:31:48,839
she's gonna be as a person.

647
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 2: Do you think we're gonna get any more Eugene stuff,

648
00:31:53,839 --> 00:31:56,799
because this has been like a I don't know all

649
00:31:56,799 --> 00:31:58,960
the details of the Eugene thing. Joel was forced to

650
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,240
kill this guy, and it just seems like in the

651
00:32:01,279 --> 00:32:04,079
last two episodes we just kept getting like a little

652
00:32:04,119 --> 00:32:06,680
Eugene moment when I think it was Jesse and Ellie

653
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,240
are at that safe house where the weeds being grown

654
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,759
and then she finds like Eugene's I don't know name

655
00:32:12,839 --> 00:32:15,759
tag or something, dog tags, whatever it was. It just

656
00:32:15,759 --> 00:32:18,640
seems like they like keep bouncing up this character. So

657
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,839
I was curious when we were gonna eventually get a

658
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,559
little bit more of an answer on what all the

659
00:32:23,559 --> 00:32:26,279
details were to that. But Joel's gone. Now you know,

660
00:32:26,319 --> 00:32:29,079
we're leaving Jackson. I imagine we're not going to be

661
00:32:29,079 --> 00:32:31,759
seen too much Gail, at least in the next episode.

662
00:32:31,839 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: So this Eugene character, I don't I have to rewatch

663
00:32:37,759 --> 00:32:38,240
season one.

664
00:32:38,279 --> 00:32:39,279
Speaker 3: I really don't remember.

665
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 2: I don't even think he's in season one. I think

666
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:41,079
it was.

667
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 1: I see that there's like a photo of this guy

668
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:49,839
and it says Eugene Linden and he's got glasses, like

669
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,960
if you google him, But I just I don't.

670
00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 3: Remember him from season one.

671
00:32:57,519 --> 00:33:00,119
Speaker 1: And there's like that photo of him is from the game,

672
00:33:00,279 --> 00:33:03,640
but this one that looks like it's actually from the

673
00:33:03,839 --> 00:33:10,839
show Shocking Death in episode two. Eugene Is death have

674
00:33:10,839 --> 00:33:13,720
been mentioned multiple times in the first episode. Yeah, in

675
00:33:13,759 --> 00:33:16,039
episode two, Jesse told Ellie and it's a shame Joel

676
00:33:16,079 --> 00:33:16,799
had to kill Eugene.

677
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 3: Couldn't be saved when he was alive.

678
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,839
Speaker 1: Egene, so yeah, I guess he wasn't wasn't in the

679
00:33:24,839 --> 00:33:28,160
first season. I don't know why Google has all these

680
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,039
photos of this character then, because it's a real actor.

681
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:34,519
Speaker 3: I don't know.

682
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,839
Speaker 1: I just assumed that he was one of the guys

683
00:33:36,839 --> 00:33:41,480
in that cannibal community for whatever reason. It's the storyline

684
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:47,839
wise that doesn't make any fucking sense. So I'm sure

685
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:53,359
they're gonna give us backstory on on Eugene because I mean, you're,

686
00:33:53,799 --> 00:33:56,200
like you said, we'll probably go back to Jackson and

687
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,200
we'll get a little bit more stuff with Gail and

688
00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,440
probably with Tommy and get.

689
00:33:59,279 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 3: A little bit more in sight into into Eugene.

690
00:34:02,359 --> 00:34:08,039
Speaker 2: So yeah, we're going. Yeah, I don't have uh, I

691
00:34:08,079 --> 00:34:11,159
don't have anything else. We have a Dina and Ellie

692
00:34:12,159 --> 00:34:14,199
tense sequence at the end there. I thought it was

693
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,719
gonna get a steamy sequence, but it never never got steamy.

694
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:19,800
It stayed pretty uh pretty cold temper.

695
00:34:20,519 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

696
00:34:21,079 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

697
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,119
Speaker 1: They talked about you know, the kiss and everything like that,

698
00:34:24,199 --> 00:34:26,480
and she got a harsh grade of a six.

699
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:28,519
Speaker 2: Yeah.

700
00:34:28,599 --> 00:34:31,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it doesn't seem like they're gonna pursue their

701
00:34:31,559 --> 00:34:34,199
relationship because it seems like and Ellie was kind of

702
00:34:34,199 --> 00:34:36,400
poking fun at at her with this. It seems like

703
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:43,760
she's gone back to seth now alight, Jesse.

704
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's a reason why I set up about.

705
00:34:50,039 --> 00:34:51,519
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's exactly.

706
00:34:51,559 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 1: It's why he's got a cane now too, where it's

707
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:54,840
going hard all night.

708
00:34:58,800 --> 00:34:59,679
Speaker 2: Oh that's Seth.

709
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:05,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jesse, Jesse, fuck, you don't think they're gonna they're

710
00:35:05,639 --> 00:35:07,719
gonna keep going in that direction of something a little

711
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:08,440
bit more than friends.

712
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 2: I feel like they'll be dancing along.

713
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,679
Speaker 1: The because she's she said to you like, well you

714
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,960
like girls, and like I I don't.

715
00:35:16,079 --> 00:35:18,159
Speaker 3: I was just true, it doesn't matter.

716
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: So she I feel like she reaffirmed herself and in

717
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,360
this moment, but she was just in that time at

718
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,360
the party, she was just having fun and just experimenting

719
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,079
or trying it out.

720
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't know.

721
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 2: She wasn't that high though, right remember she did, Oh

722
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,119
you were super high. I don't know. I feel like

723
00:35:37,159 --> 00:35:39,599
Dina is a fun flirt to have at least to

724
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,880
like keep the window open. You know, she's not gonna

725
00:35:44,119 --> 00:35:46,559
straight up say yes or no. But I think she's

726
00:35:46,559 --> 00:35:47,960
gonna keep dancing along those lines.

727
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,760
Speaker 1: Well you're you know, you're probably right if Jesse and

728
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,880
Seth are the picture, and I'm sure she'll keep her

729
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,679
options open with Ellie.

730
00:35:58,639 --> 00:36:01,119
Speaker 2: I just picture we're gonna get like a Jackson scene.

731
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,079
It's gonna be like Seth and Jesse talking about Dina

732
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:05,360
with one of them.

733
00:36:07,079 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 3: Yeah cool.

734
00:36:10,119 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I got nothing either, So we did it

735
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,840
Episode three in the books. We'll be back next week

736
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,960
