    Great great episode. Like every episode so far.
    There is a reason why Henry is shown again at the beginning. That was for the fans, because that's exactly how the cut had been made in the game. One shot, then black, then dam.
    The reason why Joel doesn't teach Ellie much or let her do it things is that she wouldn't be cargo anymore. Such things create a mutual connection that Joel did not want until then. He doesn't want to give her the option to take care of him. Just like Sarah did back then. I mean she did the housekeeping, made sure he wore his shirt the right way around ect. In this episode, however, he unconsciously refers to her as family during dinner, because she is allowed to stay at the table while he expects Maria to leave. Fortunately, after the quarrel between the two, everything changed.
    That the dog notices infections is nothing new. Merci the neighbor dog already did that in episode 1. That being said, dogs also find cancer and other diseases in the body.
    The dog here has noticed that something is wrong with Ellie, but he has also noticed that there is no danger from her. Something Fedra's detectors can't detect. They only know black (red) and white (green), just like Fedra is.
    Because of Joel's injury. I think that's done far more realistically here than in the game.
    You need extreme self-control to leave something stuck in your body that you do not want to have there and does not belong there. The head must remain clear and you must be aware of what is happening to you. Among other things, you first have to be aware that you are in a state of shock. The scene is kept very realistic, also as far that the injury is not immediately noticed. Anyone who has ever severed a finger on a circular saw knows what I'm talking about.
    Maria to Ellie: "Be careful who you put your faith in. The only people who can betray us are the one we trust."
    Probably the most important sentence of this episode if not of the whole series.
    Joel to Ellie: "Dream of sheep ranches on the moon."
    This sentence says so much. Joel already connects Ellie's dreams with his. But he does not see this so clearly at the time and still tries to prevent the inevitable.
    Ellie drank from Joel's liquor and it was "STILL gross". That was a callback to the DLC "Left Behind" Elli's flashback episode.
    Next episode Ashley Johnson (Game Ellie) will properly get an appearance in the Ellie Flashback.
    This episode was a feast for everyone who played Part 2. we met Dina, properly Jessie, Shimmer, Bison Bar, sheep, kids playing snowball, Astronauts, Jackson see from the inside. Simply fantastic.
    The campfire scene was not in the game, but was originally supposed to be included. So far, only a concept art was left in the bonus material of the game. I think the scene would have been important in the game because it underlines once again that both Marlene and Joel are absolutly sure that it is possible to produce a cure.
    Druckman said he can now finally show more through the series than was possible in the game.

    Remember episode 3. Fedra rounded up people from towns for Quarantine Zones leaving behind abandoned homes, stores and whole towns. Joel and Ellie would have lots to pick from like Bill did.
    The infected wouldn't stay there in empty towns since they can only reproduce among people. That's why they are few of them in rural areas. Unlike the Walking Dead, the infected can't feed on animals.

    6:40 ish when Joel shares his dream after the apocalypse and consoles Elle. Is the first time we see as audiences of him gaining some of his long lost hope. Previously he was skeptical, refusing to believe, or even hope. But after these travels and three months later. Here he is panicking because he has began to dream a life after it all. After everything and what he feels like, too late. A sentiment echoed later by his brother.
    I just love they took those moments to share his trauma, PTSD, and anxiety. Something we never got in the game. Joel was always so strong for us. Here we see the vulnerability and soul of a lost, mortal man. ❤

      Except it didn't apply here or have you forgotten Joel's daughter Sarah, her Black mother and Joel's wife. Joel and Maria don't like each other because she has heard about Joel and Tommy's past of robbing and killing innocent people and Joel doesn't like the fact that he's lost everything while Tommy has a wife a home and a child on the way. He sees Maria as coming between the brothers. Ellie is the one who points out that Maria is using Joel as a way to excuse Tommy and make his murdering not really his fault while Maria is correct when she tells her only those close to us can betray us, which from Ellie's point of view is what Joel does at the hospital at the end of the season.

    Re: the positive test vs the dog sniffing out the infection. We don't actually now what the light-up test they used was testing for. Lots of medical tests don't actually test the thing they are reporting on directly - they're looking for byproducts or signal chemicals that the body releases in response to the infection/disease. PSA testing for prostate cancer is a good example - they don't test for the presence of cancer cells directly, they look at the levels of an antigen produced by the prostate. So whatever the light up instrument is testing for may be some secondary chemical or antibody that is a product of the initial infection, or her body's own immune response to infection. Antibodies would still be produced in the blood stream for months or years after the actual infection was cleared completely, resulting in a false positive test. But if the dog was trained to smell out the actual fungus, after the intervening months her immune system has likely completely cleared her body of fungus so there's nothing left for the dog to smell.

    I would be angry if I was Joel he had to kill and almost died many times trying to find Tommy. Tommy stop talking to him on the radio and he was living comfortably. He didn’t even try to tell his brother or help him get to him safely. I would feel like my brother didn’t give a sh#t about me. Joel has every right to be upset with Tommy.

    • @thathighguy6980
      @thathighguy6980 Год назад +3

      @@Syntell he was right to be upset... Yes. But, Tommy was also right in following the camps rules. This is a world where not following the rules leads to you or those you care about ending up dead.
      This is also growth for Tommy... He's not just following anymore. He's taken control of his autonomy and built a life of comfort for himself. And to be brutally honest... When it comes to survival, blood means very little. Those actively engaged in your survival are the most important. And it seems like Joel was more critical of Tommy's choices than supportive. He even used follower in a derogatory sense when speaking about Tommy.
      So, tldr; I see why Joel is pissed, but also why Tommy made the choices he had to.
      This ties into one of them many themes of this show. There are no "good people". Just infinite shades of gray simply trying to survive. If you get lucky, you get to live instead of just persisting until tomorrow. Tommy is living, Joel is surviving

    The thing that helps Ellie and Joel is the cold. It slows down bleeding and preserves the body. People can be underwater for an hour and recover if it's ice covered lake.
    Unless Joel wakes up and helps, I agree, no way Ellie is getting him back on a horse. That leaves two options:
    * She makes some kind of stretcher from a blanket, branches and rope and have the horse pull Joel, CAREFULLY to minimize bouncing and making the wound worse.
    * She bundles Joel in a blanket and go get help on the horse as fast as she can aka return to Tommy.
    Now, we know how the game plays out and if they want to redo a major plot, we know which option the show will take--which I won't spoil.

    It's entirely possible that the dog can detect the fungi infection in Ellie but the dog probably only alerts and attacks threats, so whilst the machines can only detect "infection" or "presence" of some fungi in a binary sense. The dog perhaps with keener senses can differentiate between fungal-rabid human and fungal-immune human.
    Maria knows what Joel is capable of and what he and his brother have done, in her mind Joel and Tess are not good people - which they've openly admitted. So I believe her thoughts and moods are concern about what Joel's sudden presence may have on her husband and soon to be father of her daughter, especially since Tommy is a follower with a strong sense of duty to family. She's worried Tommy will fall back into bad habits following his brother's influence.
    You didn't mention much differences between the game but I found it interesting that you see the town, which is prominent in the game's sequel but wasn't in the first game, since you meet your brother doing maintenance at the dam. Neil Druckmann in the podcast, however, said that the town was meant to be in the first game but they didn't have the budget or time for it - which they could do here for the HBO series, especially since they know they will be re-using the sets. There were some other future nods to the sequel in the meal scene (the curious girl).

    This is why this has been the only shooter video game that I like. There are so many video games out there where you can just turn off your feelings and become a killing machine, shooting and killing your way into getting better and better at such violence with no issues, but this game was different. It was created so that you feel remorse for killing, especially the NPCs you don't have to kill. (like most of the dogs) This world is still so far fetched but it to me allows me to feel the way I would feel if this were to really take place. For to many of us, life is worth something and to just kill with no remorse is not in any way desirable.
