The Last of Us HBO S2: The Path
Ellie and Jackson deals with the aftermath of the events of the last episode....
We start by focusing on the decision to cut the first half of Seattle Day One, removing key locations like the Saravina Hotel. We discuss the music store scene and its impact without the emotional callbacks to Joel. Isaac’s backstory gets a major shift, transforming him from a ruthless WLF leader into a complex former Fedra officer, with a chilling interrogation scene that sets the tone for his character. We also hit the tense TV station sequence, the chaotic subway escape, and Dina’s dramatic reaction to Ellie’s immunity, questioning whether the show captures the same intensity as the game.
