Joel and Ellie finally bond. We meet ruthless villains and learn that sometimes the enemy of your enemy is not in fact a friend, but someone hell bent on your destruction.
I laughed out loud at the L.L. Bean jacket and Starbucks lines because saaaaame. 😂
Re Ellie shooting the kid, I found it sweet that Joel still thought there was an innocence to protect. Since she’s the same age as his daughter was, he defaults to that same level of shielding, when in reality, Ellie was basically being groomed by Fedra to be a soldier (I’m guessing). Her revelation of already having shot someone snaps him back to the reality of the situation, and he lets her keep the gun.
