Welcome back to the Pod Cast of Us. Episode 7 of The Last of Us takes us back in time to the beginning of Ellie's arc as it pertains to our main story. Joel is gravely injured from the fight with the raiders and implores Ellie to go back to Tommy in Wyoming. While debating whether or not to do as he says, Ellie remembers her last "normal" days in the FEDRA school she was raised in. Still the trouble-maker we all know, she laments her disappeared best friend Riley. When Riley re-appears one night, she and Ellie share a magical and meaningful night in an abandoned mall, where revelations and actions will have consequences that reach far beyond their stolen night of fun. It's an episode that deepens our understanding of Ellie and why she continues to stick with Joel in the face of death.
