In this episode Charly and Chris take a closer look and delve into this accelerated episode.  Despite the terrible brutality it's precisely these trials that strengthen the relationship between Joel and Ellie. We discuss the ways in which the characters rely on one another, and how their relationships evolve as they face new challenges.  We appreciate the the bold choices the show runners are making and the result is a wonderful complexity to "The Last of Us."  Join us as we reflect on the themes of trust and resilience that emerge from the show's characters, and how these elements keep us entertained even if this might not be the strongest episode of the series.  Thank you for tuning in!
