#thelastofus As we get into episode 2 of The Last of Us, we get a flashback to the morning all hell breaks loose in Jakarta, Indonesia. While Joel and Tess discuss the pros and cons of following through with their mission, Ellie gets her first glimpse ever of the world outside the QZ. Tell teaches Ellie some of the basics of surviving in an Infected world. The Clickers are introduced in a terrifying way. When tragedy strikes, Tess urges Joel to set things right.
00:00:25
What's up hybrids? Welcome back to another episode
00:00:27
of The Phantom hybrid podcast. This is hanako and I am here
00:00:30
with Anthony Michelle and Mike and we are discussing the second
00:00:34
episode of The Last of Us. I'ma tell you or not I had to
00:00:40
bring the show notebook back. I was like I gotta take some
00:00:45
notes. Because they are dropping a lot
00:00:49
of information in these episodes and I was like, okay, I don't
00:00:51
want to be asking questions through the whole episode.
00:00:54
Let me take some notes and do some research.
00:00:55
I haven't done that in a while. No man.
00:00:58
I can't I can't take notes because I'm not watching half
00:01:00
living, so I'm watching most of it like this because they keep
00:01:04
going places. I'm like, oh God's gonna jump
00:01:06
out of its gonna was gonna fucking jump out of.
00:01:07
I know it's gonna jump spin. Jump, spin!
00:01:09
Jump took me almost two hours to get through this episode because
00:01:14
I can't pause and like, nope! Nope, nope.
00:01:17
I was so scared because I felt like somebody was gonna die in
00:01:21
this episode it again I knew it was going to be Joel.
00:01:25
I knew it was going to be Ellie. So I automatically knew I was
00:01:28
like this is dying in this episode mean just like why they
00:01:32
keep the introducing people to kill him.
00:01:34
I like son of a bitch. Like I know it's kind of a it's
00:01:40
a pandemic, it's end-of-the-world type thing so
00:01:44
it's like you're kind of gonna do.
00:01:46
You can Standish. I would be concerned if people
00:01:48
aren't I with the way they weren't, it's, this is like all
00:01:52
the stuff they were doing. I was just like, did they were
00:01:54
like, don't step on it because they can feel it.
00:01:56
And I'm like oh God, y'all stepping on everything.
00:01:58
Why all stepping on shit? And then when she went to the
00:02:01
front desk and started ringing that Bell, I was like bitch.
00:02:04
Are you crazy why? Right nothing wrong.
00:02:08
Do I seem like I was just like, oh God, what is she doing?
00:02:12
I was like, and, and I understand it.
00:02:15
She's a kid. She's never been.
00:02:16
In these kinds of places and she has a curiosity.
00:02:19
But I'm like, y'all are like literally fleeing for your lies.
00:02:26
In a city where all of these gross things like, um, I need
00:02:32
y'all. All of us.
00:02:35
All of us who have been watching The Walking Dead.
00:02:39
I like making, you know, here. I that's how I was feeling like,
00:02:43
okay, you just did that so something's going to be swimming
00:02:46
in the water. What's gonna happen?
00:02:48
I told you something. It took me two hours to watch
00:02:51
this episode because I kept falling, like I wasn't expecting
00:02:54
her to be like pulled down and like and like, I've dragged
00:02:57
across towards the piano and drag back and it's like all of a
00:03:00
sudden, they're like, frogs on the piano.
00:03:01
I played it didn't, it doesn't end there.
00:03:04
I was like, what the fuck? Like I was like stop making
00:03:06
noise like, oh my God, oh my God, don't shoot the gun, not
00:03:14
the same. Do the whole thing in the hotel.
00:03:21
She was stressing me out but there was also some funny thing
00:03:23
like the the the piano playing Frog.
00:03:28
It was like, what the fuck went, but the Michigan J.
00:03:30
Frog is going on here, like this.
00:03:34
Exactly what I was thinking in my head, I was like, oh look,
00:03:37
it's the Dancing Dolls. Exactly.
00:03:39
Hello my baby, hello my darling girls.
00:03:42
Like, okay, I'm glad to know. I wasn't the only person who
00:03:46
thought that because I was like if you're just as old as soon as
00:03:48
you just gonna start playing at. Uh yeah.
00:03:50
I was like he was playing was like he plays better than most
00:03:53
people who actually play the piano like what he was like
00:03:55
playing all kinds of cords and she'll stay right.
00:03:57
Right? Is he playing like wait is that?
00:04:00
Is that brown sugar? She played the Angelo like how
00:04:02
you do that, you know, because at first I really don't like
00:04:13
playing. The piano has been 20 years,
00:04:21
probably had time to learn how to play piano because what, no
00:04:23
one else there is like what else you gonna do is just like a seem
00:04:26
to be He's got three. I mean that was funny because it
00:04:38
was one of those things where it's like, that's so unexpected
00:04:41
and it's so like random. It's just random.
00:04:45
And then you have all the lily pads in the water and
00:04:48
everything. I was just like, okay, are frogs
00:04:51
going to, you know, I told you, it's one of those things where
00:04:54
you start looking at all the little stuff you like, okay.
00:04:56
Is this going to be a big part? Is this going to be a big part?
00:04:59
Like we talked about in last episode?
00:05:01
I think food was gonna be that important.
00:05:04
I was Like, oh, they're showing a lot of food, but it was
00:05:07
specifically, the kind of food that they were showing then, of
00:05:09
course, we beginning of the episode, it was eating lunch
00:05:14
like a goddamn a little, right? We get a little bit more
00:05:18
information. So let's get into the episode.
00:05:21
The episode starts in Jakarta, it takes us back to 2003 when
00:05:27
all of this first kicked off and specifically the date of the
00:05:31
Jakarta seen is September 24. Thousand three the events from
00:05:37
the first episode with Sarah and Joel that took place on
00:05:42
September 26. So this is two days from
00:05:46
today's, okay? So that tells you how fast this
00:05:50
thing spread across the world because at first it starts out
00:05:56
as this little isolated incident in Jakarta.
00:06:00
So what happens is, they open up on a scene in a restaurant.
00:06:05
There's people eating chatting, you know, and they kind of they
00:06:09
can't focus a little bit on this lady in the back, who's eaten by
00:06:12
herself. You know, not saying anything to
00:06:15
anyone just kind of to herself the military, the police come in
00:06:20
or military police come in and it's like the whole place gets
00:06:23
quite, I was like, oh this is interesting because we don't do
00:06:26
that here. The police walk in we just look
00:06:28
like, okay, whatever we keep. Keep going about our business.
00:06:31
Whole restaurant gets quiet. And they asked the waitress or
00:06:37
the hostess about something she points over there.
00:06:40
I was like, oh, she just like whatever y'all want her for go.
00:06:44
Get her right? I was like this, she does.
00:06:47
She's shorter than she's like shorter on the tip.
00:06:49
Like once he like ran around and shit like like that's our office
00:06:53
it that's it right there. She did whatever she is.
00:06:55
She did it. Cheap bitch.
00:06:57
So, the next thing we see they they go to her table and they
00:07:00
look at her and then we see her in the back of the car.
00:07:03
And at this point, she's holding her purse and she seems kind of
00:07:06
scared. But it's apparent immediately,
00:07:10
they are not being hostile with her.
00:07:12
Like the drivers tells her, he was like, I'm so sorry about
00:07:16
your lunch, you know, because they interrupted her in the
00:07:18
middle of eating and so they having a little bit of talk.
00:07:22
She's like, oh, that's okay. Am I in trouble?
00:07:26
Did I commit a crime? And he was like, oh no, you
00:07:29
know, like trying to reassure her thing is, you should
00:07:32
reassure her before you put her ass in the car.
00:07:35
Like these are questions You should have asked, like, why are
00:07:39
y'all looking for me? How do you know who I am?
00:07:42
And I feel like she should ask those in the car, but she
00:07:47
didn't. Now she's asking.
00:07:49
It was nervous, she was nervous. She didn't know what was going,
00:07:53
right? See a scientist.
00:07:55
She was nervous. Well, yeah, I guess, but still,
00:07:58
I'm gonna be even more nervous. Getting into the back of the
00:08:00
police car that and I don't know where they're taking me.
00:08:04
I don't know why they're taking me, like, she's just Just got in
00:08:08
the car and I don't know maybe you guys, maybe it's different
00:08:12
in Indonesia. Maybe they trust their police a
00:08:14
little bit more. I mean they do have big guns,
00:08:19
right? And they do know if you are
00:08:20
picked up, you could be for something that you were innocent
00:08:23
for or guilty for, and you just got to go with it.
00:08:26
Yeah, it's no fighting back so you just get in the damn car I
00:08:31
guess. So, when she she asked, she was
00:08:35
like are you sure you have the right person?
00:08:38
He was like, yep. You are able ratna and you are
00:08:42
the professor of mycology at the University of Indonesia.
00:08:45
Yes. We have the right person and she
00:08:47
was just like, Oh, and it was one of those things where once
00:08:51
he said, who she was and what she was, she was like, oh shit,
00:08:57
what didn't happen? But I think at this point, you
00:09:01
don't, you still she especially her since she talks about the
00:09:05
fact that she has studied, you know, fungus her whole life.
00:09:10
She's probably not thinking, okay?
00:09:11
This is something that I need to be worried about.
00:09:13
She's like, okay, maybe they just need a Looking in awesome,
00:09:17
right after he said, you're not in trouble, right?
00:09:20
She's not, although they might need my opinion on something.
00:09:23
And for those who didn't know, because I had to go look it up
00:09:26
because I'm again, I'm not the science person.
00:09:30
My ecology is the study of fungi so I was like, oh so she's like
00:09:35
expert level. Okay, so this is where I guess
00:09:41
the things that they talked about in 1968 are waiting to
00:09:46
happen. So they take her to this
00:09:49
facility. Looks like a medical facility.
00:09:51
She walks in the room and it's like, everybody's standing there
00:09:54
kind of in reference, you know, to her reverence of her.
00:09:58
They're just kind of sitting there and he was like, would you
00:10:01
please look at the specimen on the prepared slide?
00:10:04
And one of the doctors said, you might notice.
00:10:06
He's not, uh, she don't determine her own thing.
00:10:10
And she was like, okay I was like, oh, this is one of those
00:10:13
things where he wants to hear and Experts say this is
00:10:17
absolutely the thing that you think can't happen and she
00:10:22
doesn't even look in the microscope for what 23 seconds
00:10:25
and she turns around she looks. And she was like, why did you
00:10:29
prepare the specimen was corozal.
00:10:31
He said cuz that's how we prepare specimens taken from
00:10:35
humans and she gets up and she's just like Cordyceps can't thrive
00:10:41
in humans or at can't, you know, growing humans and he was just
00:10:44
looking at her like mmm about that.
00:10:47
Come follow me zaku, my beard. Like, I don't know what to tell
00:10:50
you and so she she goes into an examination room.
00:10:57
She's got, you know, she's got the protective suit on, and he's
00:11:03
in another room behind the glass window.
00:11:04
And he's like, if you start to feel sick, get out of here
00:11:07
immediately. she's just looking at him, like, Hmm.
00:11:12
Okay. Did anyone at this point?
00:11:15
I got scared. I was like what's gonna happen
00:11:17
to this doctor? I was like because I can't
00:11:26
pausing because I was like, I'm not ready, I'm not ready.
00:11:29
I'm just going to reach up and grab her woman, that's on the
00:11:42
table. It's Bo couldn't resist.
00:11:46
Having them fully naked woman in the shop.
00:11:50
It's just all bird out, you know.
00:11:53
Yeah I meant but I mean she's dead and I guess at this point
00:11:58
they might be considering the autopsy.
00:12:00
You never know. Hey and IMDb credit is an IMDb
00:12:04
credit just like well you got to get your name out there.
00:12:08
Somehow you look good naked corpse in Last of Us.
00:12:12
Wow, you are good in that you don't even move.
00:12:13
Thank you. I appreciate that.
00:12:15
That was probably, that was probably a dummy or I can't even
00:12:22
think of the right word right now, but that probably was not a
00:12:25
person if they probably did the same thing that they did with
00:12:28
Judith and Walking Dead, they created a likeness of her and
00:12:33
just threw on the table. I mean, it's a pretty good
00:12:36
likeness, but yeah. But anyway, so she goes over,
00:12:40
she examines this woman. She sees that the woman has a
00:12:43
bullet hole. Her head and she's getting ready
00:12:45
to examine that and the police officer comes over.
00:12:48
He was like nope, bottom of her left leg.
00:12:51
And so when she goes over, there is a bite on the woman's like
00:12:56
right above her ankle and when she takes a scalpel and kind of
00:13:00
cuts it open there's like this white something in the leg and I
00:13:06
was just like, what is that? And this is why I pause the TV
00:13:10
for the first time because I'm trying to look I'm doing Doing a
00:13:13
freeze frame and I'm trying to figure out what this thing is
00:13:18
inside the leg and I couldn't figure it out but it looked kind
00:13:21
of I don't know. Spongy.
00:13:23
I mean it looks gross. I'm looking at it now.
00:13:27
So she's asking she's like is this a part for me was like yep.
00:13:32
So she's like hmm. Okay she goes over.
00:13:35
She grabbed some tongs or some scissors.
00:13:38
I just want to save it but the officer he looks really, really
00:13:42
concerned. Like he's in their face.
00:13:48
Yeah, I feel like he knew enough, he might not have been a
00:13:53
scientist, but he knew enough to know that what was happening on
00:13:57
that table with that woman was not supposed to be happening.
00:14:02
Because when she said to him cordyceps can't thrive in, in a
00:14:06
humid it can't live in a human. He was just like, mmm.
00:14:10
That's what I thought too, but here Me out, you know, she goes,
00:14:17
you know, she takes the the scissors and she goes up to the
00:14:21
woman's mouth and she prize her mouth open, okay?
00:14:24
That's another pause moment. Because I was like, she's about
00:14:26
to Chomp down, she had to do something.
00:14:29
Yes he is. Or the tentacles gonna come out
00:14:32
and attack her. That's why I was waiting for.
00:14:34
But when she opened her mouth, you can see something in the
00:14:37
back of her throat, it was very faint.
00:14:39
But you can see something kind of whitish in the back of her
00:14:41
throat. So she's sitting.
00:14:43
With the scissors or the tongs. And she's trying to pull it out
00:14:46
and whatever she grabs onto, she's having a hard time pulling
00:14:50
it out and when she pulls it out is some of them damn tendrils.
00:14:55
And now that now that I know that that's what it was in the
00:14:58
first episode. I'm looking at them.
00:15:00
Like how did I not? Realize that's what they were
00:15:04
because they literally look like my creepy crawly worms, but she
00:15:10
pulls it out and she looks at it and the things Starts moving
00:15:14
towards her. I was like oh hell no.
00:15:17
Like she was like, oh shit, she dropped this shit and
00:15:19
disconnected at super quick to do.
00:15:27
And then of course you start seeing the tendrils coming out
00:15:30
of the mouth. So then you see her sitting on
00:15:39
the couch and, you know, the guy, he brings her tea and they
00:15:43
start having a conversation. She was like, so when did this
00:15:45
happen 30 hours ago where he says a flower and grain Factory
00:15:52
on the west side of the city and she says a perfect substrate.
00:15:58
Yeah and basically she said this was the perfect environment.
00:16:06
For this fungus to thriving. And so, she starts trying to
00:16:12
find out the information, like, what happened?
00:16:14
He was like a normal woman. She got violent very suddenly a
00:16:20
fuel. She bit through three of her
00:16:22
co-workers. They locked her in a.
00:16:26
Did he say a freezer? They lie, do they locked her in
00:16:28
the bathroom? And then, when the police got
00:16:30
there, she tried to attack the police.
00:16:32
So the police shot her which is why she had the bullet. hole in
00:16:36
the head and then she asked what happened to the other the other
00:16:41
co-workers and she's like, um, yeah, so things escalated to the
00:16:46
point where our only course of action was to execute them to
00:16:52
sleep and she sitting there just taking it all in and she's like,
00:16:55
well who bit her and he's like, we don't know and she's like
00:17:01
okay so that person still out there Are they any other missing
00:17:05
workers? He was like 14. when he said
00:17:11
that the way her hands started shaking, Yeah.
00:17:15
TNT that like she did a Hearts while she was like, oh, shit.
00:17:20
And she puts that t down. And is like, you see her
00:17:26
calculating some things in her head and the math ain't
00:17:28
maddening? Yeah.
00:17:30
Yes, she is like, we brought you here to keep this from
00:17:34
spreading. We need a vaccine, we need
00:17:36
medication. She was like Hold on for a
00:17:41
second. She was like I have been
00:17:43
studying these things all my life.
00:17:45
So listen to me carefully. There is no medicine, there is
00:17:52
no vaccine. He's looking at her like then,
00:17:56
what do we do? And I was not expecting the
00:18:01
answer that came out of her mouth.
00:18:03
But again, she has like real calm, like, you know, sometimes
00:18:07
you see disaster movies, like all the panic and stuff, even
00:18:10
the scientists are panicking. She is very clear.
00:18:13
She is very calm because at this point, she knows what has to be
00:18:17
done. She utters one word.
00:18:20
Bomb fun fact. The word for bomb in Indonesian
00:18:23
is Bomb because this is exact same password.
00:18:29
That clearly I was like, oh shit.
00:18:32
Yeah she said bomb this city and everyone in it everything she
00:18:39
knew that that's what was going to have to be done.
00:18:42
She was you know if we'd have been saying a disaster movie
00:18:47
that's taking place here you would have had Had people trying
00:18:50
to sneak out before they gave the order.
00:18:52
You would have had people like calling their families, okay.
00:18:55
Hey, I need you to go such a such, don't ask, no questions,
00:18:58
just go. I'll explain it later.
00:19:00
They would have been trying to save other people which might
00:19:04
have contributed to the spread. She was like uh start bombing
00:19:09
this city. and everyone in it and he's just looking at her
00:19:14
like What and she starts crying because she knows and she was
00:19:23
like, um, can somebody please drive me home?
00:19:26
I want to be with my family. I was like damn.
00:19:27
So she know, she's like, literally telling him be to bomb
00:19:31
everything. Everything, but me and you but
00:19:36
man, that shit was that we, what can you say is like, I mean, I
00:19:43
don't even know if I could have done that.
00:19:44
She was brave enough, but I don't know if I can be.
00:19:45
Like, all right, you got a bomb everybody?
00:19:48
Including me including you, make sure nothing gets the fuck out.
00:19:52
Like for real, they all look like they're done that.
00:19:55
I'll be like you. Okay, you got Mom, everything in
00:19:57
here, but I gotta go, that's what I'm saying.
00:19:59
Most disaster movies that we see that start out with something
00:20:03
like that. People are always trying to save
00:20:06
themselves their families and it's like, I don't know.
00:20:10
I started thinking about our discussion on the first episode
00:20:14
about how, you know, it is like the bread, the bread products,
00:20:18
the gluten products, like these are the things that people are
00:20:20
eating and it's probably helping them spread.
00:20:23
Now, knowing that this actually like may have originated in a
00:20:28
bread factory. It's kind of like her saying
00:20:35
that her. Thank you.
00:20:40
Is the largest Flour Mill in the world?
00:20:43
Which is why it could spread over to the states and to notice
00:20:48
things like, literally like that already done.
00:20:55
That that scene reminded me of, like, the opening scene in the
00:20:58
movie outbreak where Dustin Hoffman and Morgan Freeman went
00:21:02
in to see what happened. Then they left there, like,
00:21:04
we're going to drop my, we'll be right back then the plane flew
00:21:07
with the big boss. They were like yeah they're
00:21:09
coming back in the drop the bomb in the doctor was like oh fuck
00:21:13
and it like blew up like the whole little town like I was
00:21:17
like yeah that's mmm. But yeah, I mean, but just like
00:21:22
now he's like, what else can you do?
00:21:24
There's nothing literally nothing else you can do.
00:21:27
I mean, they she was trying to stop it, but at that point, like
00:21:31
we said, if it was, if it originated in the bread factory,
00:21:35
there's nothing. I mean she probably Kept it from
00:21:39
getting worse in Jakarta, but it probably wouldn't have made any
00:21:43
difference if it's spread all over the world.
00:21:46
Yeah. Sorry.
00:21:48
On cargo ships, right? I'm beating my cereal in.
00:21:54
Oklahoma. Exactly, you're busy, you're
00:21:57
being a buddy and Jim your pasta in your pocket.
00:22:00
Mind your in your porridge and London, like everywhere,
00:22:05
everybody is eating some form of grain or A 1000 times, like,
00:22:11
everything is like all that this is, but that's why they were
00:22:15
making such a not necessarily a big deal but that's why they
00:22:18
kept stressing the pancakes in the first episode because she
00:22:22
wanted to make pancakes. He didn't buy the pancake mix
00:22:25
and then with time it comes up and he's like I thought we won't
00:22:28
Chase. Looks like what's he saying?
00:22:32
Okay, so why are you trying to fix them?
00:22:35
Yeah, they were trying to show Uh-huh.
00:22:42
So everything that could have helped them turn into whatever
00:22:47
and the first time we see the next door neighbor Sheehy 7
00:22:50
biscuit and why is because she wasn't, you know, they homemade
00:22:54
this week's and their homemade biscuits too, because if her
00:22:59
daughter up there making oatmeal raisin cookies.
00:23:10
All of these references to food in the first episode.
00:23:14
Now that we know kind of what may be the start of this.
00:23:19
You go back and you look at everything.
00:23:20
You like, man. They were literally, they were
00:23:23
being Neo in The Matrix. They were dodging all They were
00:23:29
like, oh great here. No burn bread, that no mmmm.
00:23:35
But it's so wild because I again like I said I would have never
00:23:40
thought of something like that but again that that's the whole
00:23:44
point that John Hannah's character was making in the
00:23:47
first episode. Hmm yeah he's gonna be a real
00:23:51
thing that takes us out. No no it's going to be it's
00:23:54
going to be fungus. Watch is gonna be fun as and
00:23:56
everybody's laughing the hostess laughing Christopher higher
00:24:00
dolls, doctor characters looking at him like did you really just
00:24:04
say that out loud? Loud.
00:24:05
Yes, he did. And he was right.
00:24:07
I just kind of Wonder like, where is that doctor now?
00:24:11
I don't know if we'll see him again, but I just want to know.
00:24:14
Where is he now? And was he around when all of
00:24:17
this went off, like, was he sitting in the house?
00:24:20
Like, I told y'all, I told y'all this shit for years ago.
00:24:24
So you did some work eating eating like beef and chicken and
00:24:30
everything, but grain, like he's sitting there eating like leafy
00:24:34
greens. I kinda need to celebrate the
00:24:36
exhilaration. Oh yeah.
00:24:39
Right, right. Okay.
00:24:42
Well, the fun before we go on, this is my favorite part of the
00:24:46
episode. Okay, now there's different
00:24:48
favorite Parts, but like I said last week, I love when I get the
00:24:52
wind where how and they gave me another section of that.
00:24:56
So I'm not questioning anything. Now, I got the beginning origin.
00:25:00
I don't know who bit her at this point, I don't really care.
00:25:03
It came from the factory somewhere.
00:25:05
But I got the origin of this story and I'm excited.
00:25:08
You gave it a scientist or lasting gaming, a scientist this
00:25:11
week. That's all I need.
00:25:13
I don't need anything else now that's it.
00:25:16
Stop lying. I mean, I know everything.
00:25:18
Now I got it. Okay, how Sandra got started?
00:25:23
But that's another, you know, how we got to that situation.
00:25:26
So we will see ya. Okay?
00:25:31
So let's go to our Trio of Fleurs Joel testing Ellie.
00:25:38
So they have stopped overnight and I tell you watching this
00:25:43
episode and watching the dynamic between these three, it's very
00:25:48
interesting because again, Joel and test now that they know that
00:25:53
Ellie has been bitten. They stayed up all night to
00:25:58
watch her to try to make sure she wasn't going to, you know,
00:26:01
turn or whatever. And it's so funny because when
00:26:04
she turns around and she looks at them she's like, oh okay they
00:26:08
start asking questions and you know, they're asking her like
00:26:12
why are you so important? What, why was Marlene, you know,
00:26:16
keeping an infected kid? And she was like, I'm not
00:26:19
affected and I think also, Anthony.
00:26:23
I know we were talking in the last episode about whether or
00:26:25
not she was immune or not, they have actually said that, she is
00:26:29
immune. Okay, so yeah, they have
00:26:33
mentioned that. I think they mentioned, it may
00:26:36
be a few times in this episode, but I was like, okay, so it is.
00:26:42
I guess some sort of immunity or at least maybe that's just what
00:26:45
they're thinking at this point, because there is a, there is an
00:26:48
instance, in the episode where she is.
00:26:51
I don't know if she was big Written, or if she was scratched
00:26:54
because it didn't look like she was getting cranky that at
00:26:58
Lowell. Yeah, it looks more like a
00:26:59
scratch. It was too small but, you know,
00:27:03
they traveled for a while after it and it had no effect on her.
00:27:07
So I don't know, maybe she does have some kind of immunity to
00:27:12
it, but they're sitting there and the dynamic between them is
00:27:16
so funny because when she leaves to go you know to go take a
00:27:20
piss. Tess and Joel are sitting there
00:27:23
discussing, okay? Well, you know what happens if
00:27:28
you know, Joel is like, let's go back, let's just, let's just
00:27:31
take her back. Let's, let's go back to the
00:27:33
quarantine Zone. We will figure something else
00:27:36
out and test is like, no, this is the best way for us to get
00:27:41
everything we need. Not just the battery, but I
00:27:44
think Marlene promised them trucks.
00:27:46
She promised them weapons, she promised them, you know, rash,
00:27:50
basically. A thing that they would need to
00:27:53
continue on that track and test is like, no, we're not giving
00:27:55
that up. We just got to keep her.
00:27:56
We just gotta keep her safe and get her wherever she has to go.
00:28:00
Now, it's funny because when Emily comes back and test is
00:28:04
trying to find out what the deal is Ellie is kind of getting a
00:28:08
little smart mouth as she does in throughout the whole two
00:28:12
episodes we've seen her but test gets on her level.
00:28:15
She's like little girl. Let me talk to you like an adult
00:28:18
Joel and I are not good people. You might want to tell us what's
00:28:24
going on? Where are we taking you?
00:28:26
What's out, west? I like that.
00:28:27
There last year. I think I'm paraphrasing.
00:28:30
She's like, you're obviously variable, but we need to know
00:28:34
how valuable you are. Uh-huh.
00:28:38
Well, she's basically look, we're not good people.
00:28:40
We're doing this for us to get the things that we need, but we
00:28:43
can't know how valuable you are until we know what was going on.
00:28:49
And you know, Ellie makes this smart Das comment about Oh you
00:28:53
mean so you can get your batteries.
00:28:54
She said, oh you heard that? Yeah she said well you must also
00:28:57
heard he wants to shoot you, it really was just kind of like oh
00:29:04
and it's just so it's funny watching this dynamic because
00:29:07
test does come off. Like she is the tough one in the
00:29:11
situation. Like she's telling a lie.
00:29:13
Okay, look when I play no games with you, we are only doing this
00:29:16
to get what we want. And then we'll be done with you.
00:29:21
But then she spends the rest of the episode.
00:29:23
I feel like Ellie starts bringing out a little bit of
00:29:27
test is softer side and I don't know if that's something that
00:29:30
was intentional but you kind of notice it because at the
00:29:34
beginning test treats her like okay you were just a means to an
00:29:38
end but she takes the time throughout the entire episode to
00:29:43
explain things to Ellie. Because again, Ellie has never
00:29:46
been outside the wall. She doesn't know about what's
00:29:48
going on. She doesn't know about the
00:29:49
buildings and all this other stuff.
00:29:51
And She literally has taken time to explain things to her when
00:29:55
they are in the building at the top of the building and they see
00:30:00
all of the affected in the street that are kind of just
00:30:03
there. Okay, and I got to say this and
00:30:07
it's even happening now, when I saw all those affected in the
00:30:10
street, when I say my skin started crawling It just
00:30:15
Advanced the way that they were kind of moving the same way son.
00:30:20
Oh, my God was moving. I was just like, even now my
00:30:24
skin is crawling. It was just, I was like, oh,
00:30:26
that was another pause moment. Again, took two hours to watch
00:30:30
this episode. And the learn how they
00:30:34
communicate with each other. I'm like, really.
00:30:37
So we can't go nowhere girl. No, wait.
00:30:40
When she tell her that? She was like because when they
00:30:43
were moving together Ellie says something about they're
00:30:47
connected to each other and just was like more than you know, the
00:30:52
fungus grows underground and if you step on it It communicates.
00:31:01
Anywhere that it touches. So you can step on a piece of
00:31:04
the fungus, you can step on the route of the fungus and it'll
00:31:07
wake up. Infected a mile away.
00:31:09
I was like hmm. No take me back to the
00:31:14
quarantine Zone. I don't want no parts of this.
00:31:20
None. Here we go ahead.
00:31:22
So like I said that the as they're walking, you know the
00:31:26
show. Wait wait wait wait wait before
00:31:28
we before we leave that part. Shout out to Marlena for giving
00:31:31
giving Ellie a fucking chicken sandwich in the tube to take
00:31:35
whatever. I was like, what the fuck?
00:31:37
How does she stay over there? Eating eat the night air and
00:31:40
peanut butter cookie off jerky, dried beef.
00:31:43
Jerky is he's over there, like, unwrapping the sandwich.
00:31:47
Like basically doing a damn Chick-fil-A commercial, I'm
00:31:49
like, Chick-fil-A is everywhere like just like the Blessed
00:31:53
chicken survives up in survives the worldwide pandemic.
00:31:56
Like how the fuck does that happen, right?
00:31:58
Like how you get chickens in an area?
00:32:01
That's been bombed. Because of course, we see the
00:32:03
crater from when the bomb was dropped.
00:32:06
But you know what was it Ellie said Marlene said they smuggle
00:32:10
them in. Yeah.
00:32:11
Like they have to They sent over here.
00:32:14
Eating beef jerky. Just like piece by piece and
00:32:18
Elias over their life. First of all who's making bread
00:32:22
right now. Like why?
00:32:25
And how are they, where are they trusting bread?
00:32:27
Why are they trustee? Well, here's the, if they, what
00:32:31
if they don't know that, that's what caused it.
00:32:34
But, again, Ellie is immune, so a sandwich wouldn't wouldn't
00:32:38
bother her. That's another thing that
00:32:41
they're showing us like she is eating a sandwich with a with
00:32:45
Bread. Anybody else with this dried?
00:32:48
Beef jerky? I don't know if I necessarily
00:32:50
bad because because the the doctor and Indonesian knew that
00:32:55
it was the grain that was, that was helping it grow.
00:32:58
So there have to be other, doctors, that can't be the only
00:33:01
doctor in the world. That knows that's how it can
00:33:04
incubate and spread there have to be other.
00:33:06
That least, well, Kathy more doctors, that know, that until
00:33:09
people like okay. Stop fucking eating bread until
00:33:12
further notice. Because they should fucking
00:33:14
that. It's just fucked up, right?
00:33:15
Now, but if they don't know where it started, I mean, think
00:33:18
about it. What does she tell them to do
00:33:21
Mom? The city, right?
00:33:24
You really think they're going to pass out the information
00:33:28
that? Oh yeah.
00:33:29
By the way, these things are going to be running around
00:33:33
biting people because they got ahold to some bad breath.
00:33:36
You think they're really going to know what I'm saying.
00:33:38
Is that is not logical to think that there's only one person
00:33:43
smart enough to figure that out. That's be at least there has to
00:33:45
be another scientist out there. Smart enough to figure that out
00:33:48
they'll let me know and I understand what you're saying
00:33:51
but you have to think about this from Jakarta to Austin Texas.
00:33:56
That was 48 Hours was yeah 48 Hours September 24th to
00:34:02
September 26th. They started hearing the
00:34:05
information about what's going on in Jakarta that morning by
00:34:09
2:00, a.m. that evening already a broadcast, stop all TV
00:34:14
broadcast stop. So how are you going to pass
00:34:17
along the information and chances are and most of the
00:34:20
doctors, most of the scientists if they can't contain Jane it,
00:34:24
if it starts spreading. What do they do in the military?
00:34:29
Probably going to go after those doctrines like, okay, you know
00:34:32
what? Let's go on ahead and take care
00:34:34
of y'all too. I mean, we know that they have
00:34:36
doctors in the safe zone or in the, The Outpost of the base
00:34:42
that they're trying to get Ellie to.
00:34:44
But I mean, think about it, most of the times, especially what
00:34:49
we've seen you, you've seen it in the stand, we see it in The
00:34:52
Walking Dead. We see it in other shows where
00:34:56
It's something like this kind of takes over and lemon eights.
00:34:59
What 75 90 percent of the population.
00:35:03
You're only going to have a handful of doctors that are
00:35:07
actually going to be around. And the ones that we do have in
00:35:10
this show are probably where they're trying to take Ellie,
00:35:14
but if all communication, or most communication stopped How
00:35:21
are they going to get that information around even if they
00:35:23
know that's what it is. Because most of the people at
00:35:27
that point they're already Panic.
00:35:29
They're already in the streets and you saw what happened?
00:35:32
Just that night. Everybody sitting in traffic
00:35:35
trying to get out and you try to go through a town.
00:35:38
Here comes you know the running infected here and here comes
00:35:42
more running infected there and you got planes crashing.
00:35:46
I just don't know how they would get that information out so
00:35:49
quickly. They wouldn't but over time
00:35:52
because it's been 20 years so over time scientists would just
00:35:56
try to figure out the origins and they would have figured out
00:35:59
where it began and how it spread.
00:36:01
So 20 years later, they're probably making the week
00:36:05
differently because they know what to look for.
00:36:08
Because you got to think 20 years later because clearly they
00:36:12
have already looked into if there's a vaccine or something
00:36:16
that we can do, so they have already been working on.
00:36:20
They've been working on a cure for 20 years and haven't come up
00:36:23
with anything yet not because they know they can because it's
00:36:26
no cure. So, they know that.
00:36:28
But so at the same point you have to realize that they
00:36:30
figured out where it began For 20 years if you said five years
00:36:36
that's a no you said 10 years, I know.
00:36:38
But by 20 years you know there's great scientist because a lot of
00:36:46
things that we come up with has already been looked at and
00:36:49
experimenting on and all that. They have done experiment on
00:36:52
these clickers. They have done a whole lot of
00:36:55
things. So they know they came up with a
00:36:58
testing system. But it occurs well, you can't do
00:37:04
nothing about the clickers. No, you can't do it.
00:37:06
One about it. Is there that?
00:37:08
There's no, there's no cure. No, there's nothing on this.
00:37:11
They've been working on this for 20 years, but you still going.
00:37:14
Are you still going to try? You're still going to see if
00:37:18
things change. If it has any mutations, if the
00:37:21
mutations can lead to a cure because over time it is going to
00:37:24
mutate and it's still going to work on it.
00:37:26
You should have stopped working on it.
00:37:28
No, this isn't happening. Oh, this is what causes this and
00:37:38
if you have that information, even with the networks that they
00:37:42
have, yeah, they don't have TV. They don't have radio.
00:37:45
I mean, yeah, it will that kind of radio they have the Broadband
00:37:50
radios that they're used and it has this information along stop.
00:37:53
I mean, everybody is eating off of rations.
00:37:56
Now, why does bread still exist? If that's the case.
00:37:59
As they leave, the factory Elite has breads.
00:38:02
Elite has chicken smuggling in yet.
00:38:05
The rest of them are eating beef jerky, they eating Soylent
00:38:10
Green. So that's what the lower people
00:38:12
are doing, but the high military people,
00:38:25
they're having french toes, they haven't tofu chicken.
00:38:29
Chicken, real chicken, chicken wing, the military if nobody
00:38:34
else know, if Joe and tests and other, you know, peasants.
00:38:39
If they don't know that this started with bread, the military
00:38:43
would know. Right.
00:38:44
So why are y'all still eating this shit?
00:38:46
Because it may not be in the bread anymore because it one
00:38:50
thing that I have read, the reason why they came up with
00:38:53
that year, that was the hottest year on the planet.
00:38:57
So that started the In the growing so it may have changed
00:39:02
over time. It may not be in the weed
00:39:03
anymore. It just that was his home at the
00:39:06
time and how its prey, it doesn't mean it continue and
00:39:10
then you know how to grow it differently.
00:39:11
But since you grow it differently, you can only grow
00:39:13
it for the special people. You can't grow for everybody.
00:39:16
But what my question is, where the hell are you going to grow?
00:39:19
If they bombed all the major cities?
00:39:21
Like, if all of them are looking like that, we're asking really
00:39:25
asking real questions. Like how many Times on this
00:39:31
show. Do I have to tell you that
00:39:33
writers as good as they can be? You don't think things all the
00:39:37
way through. They don't ask these questions.
00:39:40
It's just all they thought, oh, you'll be cool there.
00:39:43
She the same with your friend of Joe and tests but they don't
00:39:47
think about what people going to ask questions what she did and
00:39:49
maybe they did because next week with.
00:39:52
So we'll talk about Brandon, like hell, no, he can't eat
00:39:54
bread. No more.
00:39:55
You know what happened to us? 20 years ago and then they gonna
00:39:57
be looking at her like what she ate.
00:39:59
To eat bread, who is making bread for her to eat if she's
00:40:05
the only person that can eat it. Meow, I don't know.
00:40:07
I mean, wait, wait. We look at the text of flour to
00:40:18
make the brick. The way that we think about
00:40:30
things, they thought of a cool scene to have then think about
00:40:33
all the questions that will come up around this girl People Like
00:40:38
Us, would I hit right? But we have to have just like
00:40:41
how we have like don't eat the lettuce now because the letters
00:40:43
have something don't eat the tomato.
00:40:44
Now this the tomatoes have something that's, don't eat the
00:40:47
cows, right? But then like the next year, the
00:40:52
new group is fine. The new growth is fine.
00:40:55
The new. So you just got to think it was
00:40:58
just that year when the year before the one year after it was
00:41:02
just that year if I just watched Nana Put a whole bunch of things
00:41:08
inside someone's mouth and you tell me that that came from
00:41:12
flower I don't care. How do I eat it?
00:41:16
I don't care how many years later we are.
00:41:18
I ain't pissing of love it, no bread no party like they were
00:41:24
they were so you still have like the afterthoughts but 20 years
00:41:31
later we know now to like roll that shit in the lab.
00:41:37
All our veggies for the rich people and everybody else.
00:41:39
Eat beef jerky. They could growing
00:41:41
hydroponically. I mean you know they're there
00:41:43
they can mean do you okay. Come on now.
00:41:47
Does this look like we're aware? They're doing Hydroponics.
00:41:50
Why am I even Exactly, you can regrow some
00:42:19
marijuana and some marijuana, some wheat, and some rice you'll
00:42:22
be, you'll be set for life and then both of them, just all your
00:42:26
little cash crops right there against the wall because he ate
00:42:31
a thing words there was me. I had a brain, that's what we
00:42:34
honest conversation. Why would he destroy?
00:42:38
I mean it's but it's a good point.
00:42:39
You're like you know where the fuck he get that damn Brad from.
00:42:41
And why the fuck is she eating it?
00:42:43
I mean, we're understand that she's immune is not going to do
00:42:45
anything to her. That's fine.
00:42:46
But it's like so she says something is not immune period,
00:42:52
that's not her. Years?
00:43:07
After the world Falls belly. Give me expensive eggs are now.
00:43:11
Damn that's true. Yeah for people to go to travel
00:43:22
across the city. Yeah.
00:43:35
That do what you got to do, man? Okay, we have time to it's time.
00:43:42
I'm sorry. Tess was like, is that chicken?
00:44:06
I was a bit answer that bread. Why did you bring his Brave
00:44:12
nearest do the way how she always?
00:44:17
She offered him some shoes like once and they were like, no you
00:44:21
this is kind of off to send it. You remember a movie called this
00:44:24
stuff? Back in the day the stuff?
00:44:28
Yeah, it was him the yogurt to have mutated in public.
00:44:35
It's very similar to this story. If you knew trying to get other
00:44:38
people to eat it and he was doing, yeah, look it up.
00:44:41
It's called the stuff now. Look at them.
00:44:44
Okay, yeah. So anyway, like I said, like we
00:44:49
were talking about before tenses, she's telling a lie like
00:44:55
all of this information, like she explains about how the
00:44:59
fungus grows underground and how if you touch it like, you.
00:45:03
Such here and it'll wake up. Infected like a mile away and I
00:45:08
was like, oh, she's telling her that for a reason.
00:45:11
I'm not ready for it. No, not at all.
00:45:13
I'm not ready for it again. Two hours to watch this.
00:45:16
So, so anyway, they realize that where they see all of these
00:45:21
infected that we were talking about is the quote unquote long
00:45:27
way that they were supposed to be trying to go in order to get
00:45:31
where they needed to get out. Outside of the city so they
00:45:34
can't go in that direction obviously.
00:45:36
So now they have to go the quote unquote short way, which is
00:45:39
supposed to be more dangerous and they go through a museum.
00:45:43
Now I'ma tell y'all now this Museum when they first walked
00:45:47
up. Nope.
00:45:48
And you see all of the pretty scary-looking fungus on the
00:45:52
door. Absolutely the fuck not.
00:45:54
No way. And we will bring you to take
00:45:57
the extra long way. No absolutely the fuck not.
00:46:02
Hey, no way and hail. I would walk through there and I
00:46:09
mean I only said it to she was like, you got to be kidding, you
00:46:12
gotta be fucking kidding me. That's the other thing.
00:46:14
That was funny about this episode.
00:46:16
She really likes the f word yesterday.
00:46:18
Yeah. Because how many times did she
00:46:21
drop the F-bomb in this episode? I almost feel like we need to
00:46:25
make a drinking game out of it, but I feel like we would all
00:46:28
have worked by the end of the episode, but yes, you were
00:46:34
there. Yes.
00:46:35
Yes. Use the The mouth on her, but
00:46:36
it's like who's going to check her is like, that's, that's the
00:46:39
least of your problems. There's base exactly like her
00:46:43
saying cursing foot like 25 times.
00:46:45
Like, okay, whatever. I mean, shit, we got we got
00:46:48
fucking fungus hit fungus. It has a clicking zombies
00:46:51
chasing this and shit. But the thing that grossed me
00:46:56
out, of course you know, you have the fungus on the walls and
00:47:00
you've got it on the ground when Joel went over there and started
00:47:04
touching it. Again pause the TV.
00:47:07
I was like, why is he? And I was literally doing this
00:47:12
because my skin is crawling. Why is he touching literally
00:47:15
right after Radley found out that they can that they can
00:47:18
sense that if you touch it, they can find you.
00:47:22
I'm like, why are you touching it?
00:47:26
And I mean, I guess he's been around it long enough to know
00:47:31
when it's still active and when it's dry because as he says he
00:47:34
goes over, he touches it. then he kind of break some of it
00:47:37
apart with his gun, and he was like, yeah, it's bone-dry
00:47:40
meaning, it's not active, but still, this is like Why would
00:47:45
you, why would you do that? But what did he say?
00:47:48
It could mean, they're all finally dead in there.
00:47:50
So that means that there are, you know, the the reanimated
00:47:54
which we later, find out they call them clickers.
00:47:56
But Come try. Know like you said, my, I take
00:48:03
the long way around or maybe. Yes, I'm turn guys.
00:48:08
Back to the to the quarantine Zone because and then when they
00:48:12
walked in this place, Dude, I was like pausing my TV every two
00:48:18
minutes. Like there's no way.
00:48:20
I'm walking up them steps and it's like just like the
00:48:23
desiccated bodies all up steps. I was like, huh?
00:48:27
Not just the desiccated bodies. You've got all of the gross
00:48:32
stuff from the fights. You know what?
00:48:34
It reminds me of and my mind just went blank David Duchovny
00:48:41
in Orlando Jones evolution That's what it reminded me of
00:48:48
looking at all of those that I was liar.
00:48:52
Who who's going through that. And then, as they're going up,
00:48:56
the steps. There's something going on
00:48:59
upstairs. And you see all light dust
00:49:01
coming down. I was like, something is about
00:49:03
to come down on y'all's his y'all need to get the fuck out.
00:49:05
You forgot something when they found.
00:49:07
Yeah they found the body, wash body, the fresh body.
00:49:11
Okay. That point is that been ripped
00:49:13
apart be like? Okay, exactly.
00:49:16
Yeah. And I was like, maybe it was she
00:49:21
was like, this is not what they do.
00:49:26
Said that point, Joe was like, We're not going to whisper,
00:49:31
we're going to be silent. He look at the LA, he was like -
00:49:36
she was like silent. I mean, this this I was like,
00:49:40
yeah, he's falling back into that parental role real quick
00:49:43
cuz he was like, don't you say a word zipping?
00:49:45
Like a black mamba that. Don't you say nothing?
00:49:47
Don't you touch nothing. Don't you do nothing?
00:49:49
Just no, no, no. Oh my God man and then dinelli
00:49:56
steps on someone's head off like Steps arm, I was like oh God
00:49:59
damn. Here we go.
00:50:01
Another pause to the TV. Because I was just waiting for
00:50:05
something to start chasing them. And I mean, the way that the
00:50:10
fungus is on the stairs, it's not like, you can really run,
00:50:15
you don't have a clear path. I mean, there was one part of
00:50:20
the stairs when they had to come to the top.
00:50:22
It was covered in nothing but all of that mess.
00:50:27
So that you chase at this point, they just they're done.
00:50:30
They are well made. Well, no, because even Vannelli,
00:50:34
what was it tested? She was like, you might be
00:50:36
immune but you're not immune from being torn apart tricks.
00:50:42
Man, I would mean. Another thing we don't even
00:50:50
think about that. I said we were watching it,
00:50:53
okay? It's been like 20 years.
00:50:54
It's been no maintenance on buildings.
00:50:56
So they coming apart too. So you step on the stairs.
00:51:00
You hear stuff is going to fall apart.
00:51:03
In The Mists of you, trying to run away, I hear you going to
00:51:06
fall. Something's Gonna Fall, you're
00:51:07
gonna fall through something. I was like why?
00:51:09
I'm surprised it didn't fall through the floor to be honest
00:51:12
like yeah, me too, right but you notice when they're going up,
00:51:16
the steps right before they get to that.
00:51:18
Actually, that's completely overgrown.
00:51:20
The stairs going up there, completely clear like the
00:51:24
railings have fungus on it and the walls have fungus, but the
00:51:28
steps I'm looking at it right now.
00:51:30
The steps are completely clear. I found that very strange.
00:51:36
Like you, you get to walk up these stairs and nothing is
00:51:39
impeding you in there? All of a sudden you got the, you
00:51:42
got to force full of fungus. That's just, yes, it looks like
00:51:49
the stuff in evolution, that's what it looks like.
00:51:55
So it's I feel like like bit they're pulling influences from
00:51:58
all these different things. Like, oh yeah, we got the
00:52:01
creatures from the Black Pearl. And we've got the little
00:52:05
Tentacles from Evolution and who knows what else is in there.
00:52:08
But, yeah, heads of lettuce from the garden walking around, with
00:52:11
like attacking Dustin Shipley. I don't know if I will ever eat
00:52:19
and I don't know. Do they look more like, lettuce
00:52:22
or cabbage? I'm going to have some issues.
00:52:25
Michelle is sitting there holding her mouth.
00:52:27
Like, oh my God, like like damn like I mean
00:52:43
And the director said in like the director notes that they
00:52:46
play after the episode, he said before we ever shot a scene, the
00:52:54
special effects people had to come in.
00:52:56
They had to make sure that the clickers were, right.
00:52:58
He was like we got to make sure that wasn't the game is what's
00:53:04
there, or not, the director knows, but the showrunner and
00:53:08
the two guys who run the show, they're the ones who created the
00:53:11
game. So, They know better than
00:53:15
anyone. What this what this world is
00:53:17
supposed to look like what these creatures are supposed to look
00:53:20
like, I don't know what's wrong with them.
00:53:22
That they had to imagine that these creatures look like food
00:53:25
that we ingest. But it's like, okay, you already
00:53:28
given us a story where food that we eat, Charles is these little
00:53:32
tentacley things to come out your mouth and now you got
00:53:35
creatures walking around looking like lettuce heads or like what
00:53:39
was it, you said, Anthony broccoli or whatever, heads of
00:53:42
broccoli. As it is, you really think I'm
00:53:46
about to eat some after this. No.
00:53:48
Did you have you, have you seen there's a tick I saw today where
00:53:52
they split the scene where she walked across the board.
00:53:55
They showed that scene in the game and in and on the series
00:54:00
ends like they were going word for word like if they had passed
00:54:04
up perfectly I was like okay. Yeah they they put some work in
00:54:08
those are really impressive. But yeah, I'm like But I like
00:54:14
the way that they don't yet the stairs, it looks like they're in
00:54:20
a Cabbage Patch right now with a hand kind of sticking out there
00:54:28
and you got a few little mushrooms, but that's what it
00:54:30
looks like. It looks like a Cabbage Patch of
00:54:33
cabbage Garden. I was thinking of aliens and how
00:54:37
they have to walk by the pods without making sounds.
00:54:43
This would mean you made me be you brought that to my mind?
00:54:47
And they hard to kill. Girl, I was like headshot
00:54:53
headshot. He could do a hair shots and
00:54:55
they still come. And I was like, wait, what?
00:54:57
What I was look at. That was like, I don't want to
00:54:59
play this game because I'll just get frustrated.
00:55:01
It's like I hit him five times. He still killed me, like fuck
00:55:04
this game. No, I will turn it off.
00:55:07
But yeah, it's like then I guess the the fungus is like nine
00:55:11
bulletproof, like I said but like he had to get right up
00:55:14
close to him to blow his brains out like really close you just
00:55:17
because you can't see as Is hard and they moving all freaky.
00:55:22
So okay, so let me jump in a little bit here, but we got to
00:55:28
talk about the way these things move.
00:55:30
Oh, what the hell, right? Because it's the, it's the other
00:55:34
fungus taken over. You know, what?
00:55:36
It reminds me of like, puppets. Don't remind me of it.
00:55:39
Reminds me of the month in, in Moon night when they were in the
00:55:42
sarcophagus. When they're in the pyramid and
00:55:46
then they'll they were going and they were doing the same
00:55:48
clicking thing in the side almost the same movements to
00:55:52
because it's so weird because when they move is not just the
00:55:56
clicking coming from their mouths.
00:55:59
When their body moves, you hear this.
00:56:02
Clicking was like, I'm sorry, just gone ahead kill me now.
00:56:07
I'm not. I'm no, there is no way in
00:56:11
absolute hell. I would survive in this world.
00:56:14
No. No, absolutely not.
00:56:17
I haven't played the game, but I think I'll ask Carlos this, but
00:56:22
I think in the game in these scenes, when you're trying to
00:56:25
hide from them, I'm not make sounds but if they catch you.
00:56:29
If so when he kill like, they kill you instantaneously.
00:56:33
Oh I believe it, I'll drive you seen the wait.
00:56:38
When were trying to evade them just the way that they came
00:56:42
through and it was so weird because when, when they heard
00:56:46
the first one and they're like, trying to see it, I was like,
00:56:50
why the fuck are y'all not turning your flashlights off?
00:56:53
Why is your flashlight still? Are you going to, you going to
00:56:55
lead them right to them and then that's when we find out, you
00:56:58
know, Joel tells a lie, he was like, they can't see, but they
00:57:02
can hear us and she sitting there trying to hold her breath.
00:57:07
Breath. And I was like, she's good.
00:57:11
She's gonna make a noise because you see that all the time in
00:57:16
horror films. You got people hiding?
00:57:19
They're supposed to be quiet in there.
00:57:23
I do I understand that you are not used to cardio but I need
00:57:26
you to shut the fuck up. And you know, it's like Susie
00:57:37
moves just like it. Soon as you move, they me still
00:57:39
step on something. I'm like, oh my God. but the
00:57:45
other thing that I was wondering about, When that thing came into
00:57:52
the room, the way, the Ellie kind of closed her eyes and was
00:57:56
like, trying to steady her breathing.
00:57:58
I was wondering if she could feel them.
00:58:01
Hmm, I thought that too, because the way she was reacting, it was
00:58:07
kind of like she was scared that they would know that she was
00:58:10
there because she, you know, she does have the bite.
00:58:14
She may not be affected, but there may be a part of that
00:58:18
still living in her eye. I think Mike not my Anthony.
00:58:22
I think you were talking about that in the last episode or was
00:58:25
it Lord. So one of you guys were saying
00:58:27
it where she might have been fully taken over and like the
00:58:31
thing is actually still living in her but she's for some
00:58:35
reason, she's able to control it.
00:58:38
So and she has to be infected because when they give her the
00:58:43
test is showing up red. So she has signatures in herself
00:58:47
that she was infected. Something there.
00:58:52
Something, something for you to test the test - I mean, pit.
00:58:55
Test, positive. Where is his positive?
00:58:59
Cuz when she was sitting there, she was looking, it's just kind
00:59:03
of like, the way she slowly closed her eyes.
00:59:06
It's like when you're in a horror film when you're in a
00:59:09
suspense film, when people close their eyes like that, they know
00:59:12
something is coming up behind them.
00:59:14
They know something is coming around the corner.
00:59:15
They know they're about to get caught and I felt like that's
00:59:18
what she was doing it. And it was kind of like, when
00:59:21
the things started walking past her, that's when she opened her
00:59:25
eyes, and she kind of took that, that it wasn't really loud, but
00:59:30
it was enough for that thing, turn around and I'm telling when
00:59:33
that thing turned around, I pause my TV again.
00:59:38
I did a lot, I'm telling you two hours to watch this episode.
00:59:42
I can't pause, I think at this point when all this started
00:59:45
going on and they're fighting and they're running from, I
00:59:48
paused it for like 10 minutes. I had to go fix me something to
00:59:50
eat. I was like, I can't I got it.
00:59:53
I got to get up and move cuz I'm antsy.
00:59:56
I can't. And then like you said Michelle
01:00:01
they're shooting it and nothing is happening.
01:00:05
Yep. I'm sorry.
01:00:08
Was that last one? He shot close to the head in the
01:00:14
head and it was the third one that got them in the head.
01:00:18
I believe but I mean it's twice and then the other one, I think
01:00:24
he shot it test hit in the head with an ax and it was still
01:00:29
going. Yeah, that's what I'm talking
01:00:30
about. And then he shot it twice again
01:00:32
afterwards. So.
01:00:35
Man. Are you doing exactly?
01:00:41
You know I'm saying it's like yeah, you gotta get, gotta get
01:00:43
it up. I know that survival is supposed
01:00:48
to be the name of the game. I would not, I would not.
01:00:54
That's why I'm not leaving the QC.
01:00:56
I'm sorry. I wouldn't believe in quarantine
01:00:59
Zone. I guess I could see Michelle as
01:01:01
the, as the guard that's like talking, those talking to the
01:01:03
little girl and she's a positive like, okay, I'm going to get you
01:01:07
some toys and also, the stuff. You gotta take a little nappy
01:01:10
time. It's gonna be okay.
01:01:12
I could just, I could see you doing that part.
01:01:14
Like, go hard, like, some cheesecake before you go.
01:01:20
He have a chicken sandwich. Yeah.
01:01:23
Hey, you want some french toast and I'll be great at my job
01:01:29
because I am not leaving the zone.
01:01:31
I'm sorry, I'm not leaving the city.
01:01:32
I'm not going out there. I'm not looking for nobody if
01:01:34
they want to leave. Let them leave right, right?
01:01:39
But these these clickers. So when they of course, like I
01:01:42
said, they make a noise. I think what I think what it
01:01:45
was, they heard the noise. Two of them started.
01:01:50
Coming in the room there Elly, you know, she did that loud
01:01:54
breath. Took that loud breath and then
01:01:56
they all get separated trying to find it.
01:02:00
Now we see Joel find Ellie and he's like, okay, come on, come
01:02:04
on, let's get away from it. And he steps on a piece of
01:02:07
glass. When that thing jumped over the
01:02:11
fucking table, got both of our balls cause I'm not ready.
01:02:21
I live out of Europe, I was like, Nope.
01:02:25
Nope, not doing this right now. Mister mister, mister Dead
01:02:32
Silence, mr. Mr. Stark will see.
01:02:34
Anything watch. Where you step?
01:02:36
Mr. Watch. Where you step?
01:02:37
You going to step on some glass motherfucker Jesus.
01:02:42
Hey, and even, he was looking like a fuck you to main one.
01:02:50
Yeah. He's not what he started.
01:02:51
Fighting that thing and that thing.
01:02:53
Jumped over the table. I was like, who?
01:02:59
Like? I need to know what dark
01:03:02
recesses of somebody's mind. Like, how does parent do you
01:03:07
have to be to put this? Hmm, that thing was gross.
01:03:16
And yeah, and even that one, he shoots it once.
01:03:21
It gets back up, he shoots it. I think you shoot said, oh no
01:03:25
that's when yeah, no actually he shoots at 12, he shoots it three
01:03:31
times. Before it finally dies.
01:03:36
And then here comes the other one running towards him.
01:03:39
And that's when test gets it. We see test and I I'm telling
01:03:43
y'all, I knew when test came back in the room.
01:03:47
I was like, intense been gone too long.
01:03:50
Yeah. I had a feeling she being big.
01:03:52
Yeah, we're she was limping. Like, what twisted my ankle if
01:03:57
you like to get rid of her ankle?
01:03:59
Yeah, yeah. Because we when he was like
01:04:04
taping rankling who is She was like, don't let me get it, I'll
01:04:06
get it. Just like she didn't want him to
01:04:08
touch her like, huh, really? But I, I found the parallel
01:04:15
interesting because in the first episode you have Sarah who has a
01:04:20
twisted ankle, right? And Joel is trying to convince
01:04:23
the soldier. Hey, we're not sick or not sick.
01:04:26
And then, in this episode, you see the same situation with
01:04:29
somebody else that Joel cares about.
01:04:32
She twists her ankle, but she's also been big. and I was just
01:04:37
like, That's so shitty. There's so shitty y'all.
01:04:43
Good y'all could have. Yeah but when when test when she
01:04:48
sits down on the thing and she's like Talking about her ankle.
01:04:53
And when Joel is sitting there, he's basically being negative
01:04:59
about the whole thing and she was like, look can you just take
01:05:02
my when she snapped at him? I was like, oh yeah, she's
01:05:06
dying. Yeah, she was, she's done.
01:05:08
I was like, she don't want to hear none of his negativity
01:05:12
because I think in her mind she be like, I'm dying for nothing.
01:05:17
If you don't believe in this, if you can't, if you can't finish
01:05:20
this, if you can't do this, then I'll have died for nothing.
01:05:25
And that's how that's how I really feel that that was.
01:05:28
We're talking last time about how this seems like the the
01:05:34
Velociraptor see Jurassic Park. Yeah, I mentioned that.
01:05:38
Yeah. Oh my God.
01:05:39
Yeah, I was, I used as the flashback that I was like, oh
01:05:43
hell no. Is this a lot of parallels from
01:05:47
even the first episode because that happened with the with the
01:05:51
infected running after them in that night.
01:05:54
Diner. Hmm, lots of parallels.
01:05:59
Mmm. Cortez though. but, You know,
01:06:08
they get, you know, they keep they keep going.
01:06:11
They come to I guess this is The Outpost that they're supposed to
01:06:14
be going to. Mhm.
01:06:16
And there's a truck outside but there's nobody in it.
01:06:19
There's nobody guarding anything.
01:06:22
So of course they're all kind of skittish like okay.
01:06:27
So what the hell is going on here?
01:06:31
And Joel goes over to the truck you know he tries to check it
01:06:34
out and again there's nobody in the truck there's a little bit
01:06:37
of blood but it's just it's not anything that that's like.
01:06:42
Okay, these people are gone, let's just go, he goes around to
01:06:45
the back of the truck, he checks the truck, there's nothing in
01:06:48
there and they're him and tests are sitting there trying to
01:06:51
figure out what's going on and then LV is looking at the
01:06:53
ground. She was like, um, yeah, they
01:06:56
went in there because you see all blood I was like, okay, this
01:07:01
is not going to, this is not going to end.
01:07:04
Well, I don't think but when they get inside, everybody who
01:07:12
was there has been slaughtered. like, Bloodbath.
01:07:19
And they figure out what happened is, that one of the
01:07:22
people got bit. He probably attacked some of the
01:07:27
other ones, they all started fighting each other and like
01:07:31
tested they all found each other.
01:07:34
No 11, you said that the healthy ones, fought the sick ones.
01:07:39
Yeah and nobody wants to nobody won.
01:07:43
But inside, you see, gas, you know, they have gas drums, they
01:07:46
have weapon, don't know if those weapons but you said you see the
01:07:50
crates and I thought that was they were weapons.
01:07:52
But you don't see them really take anything out because test
01:07:55
is just trying to figure out. She was like, nope, something we
01:07:59
can't have come this far for nothing.
01:08:02
And it's the way that she's reacting.
01:08:07
That really solidified it for me that she had been bit because
01:08:10
she's upset. She's like, she's short.
01:08:13
And then when Joel was like let's just call this what it is,
01:08:17
let's cuddle off and go home and she was like that's not my home.
01:08:22
I was like oh okay and I think at that point that's when Ellie
01:08:29
was like well bitch. She's bit right?
01:08:34
Or even when she was dragged her, she dragged her into the
01:08:37
building to let's go. Let's go mr.
01:08:40
Aside. Yeah, because I think she didn't
01:08:44
want to. Again, she doesn't want to think
01:08:48
that Her getting bit and what she's about to go through was
01:08:53
for nothing. And then not only that, but just
01:08:57
in the conversation that they have after that, you realize
01:09:01
that test is using this mission. As her shot at Redemption, for
01:09:10
whatever it is that she and Joe did, and she talks about that,
01:09:14
you know, towards the end once they realize that she has been
01:09:18
bitten and she's trying to convince Joel, she was like, you
01:09:21
got to keep going. You got to keep her safe.
01:09:23
You got to get her there like this.
01:09:24
This potential cure thing is real, she is real, you know,
01:09:29
because Joel is, he's not really believing and he was like, yeah,
01:09:34
we've heard rumors about a cure for years.
01:09:37
Ears. They never found one.
01:09:38
They never found a vaccine the it's just not going to happen in
01:09:42
test is like no it has to happen.
01:09:44
You have to make it happen. She was like I don't ask
01:09:47
anything of you. And then she starts listing the
01:09:51
things she was like I never asked you this and I never asked
01:09:54
you to feel the same way and he was like, tissues like shut up
01:09:57
cuz I ain't gonna live. I was like oh she bout to get it
01:10:00
all out. Okay.
01:10:04
But yeah. What happens is one of the
01:10:09
infected or one of the guys that's dead in there.
01:10:13
He starts moving And they realize that I don't know if it
01:10:18
was that he wasn't quite dead yet or if he was starting to
01:10:23
reanimate. But they shoot him and he had
01:10:28
started crawling and once they kill them, you start seeing the
01:10:33
little tendrils coming up from the ground and everybody's
01:10:37
sitting there looking like, here we go.
01:10:39
Oh yes. And they showed like how fast
01:10:43
that should happen. Just like the tendrils came up
01:10:45
and touched him. Then they went up and touch
01:10:48
someone else and he was like and everybody was like and it was
01:10:53
that whole crowd of of infected that they saw outside of the
01:10:58
hotel. I was like, huh because if you
01:11:03
remember from the first episode, these fuckers run like the World
01:11:09
War Z zombies very steadfast. Yeah, I was like, huh.
01:11:16
And then when Joe goes to the door, You can even hear them
01:11:20
from the distance. That's how many there were.
01:11:23
It's like, um, yeah, we probably got a minute.
01:11:28
Let's go. I'm gonna ask this question up.
01:11:30
This is always been my concern with watching The Walking Dead
01:11:35
and Fear The Walking Dead. And now this, we never know when
01:11:39
someone gets bitten so are, like, literally, like, when they
01:11:42
get big, do they just move their clothes aside for them?
01:11:45
I'm confused. I'm confused because they will
01:11:47
have on a shirt. Two coats, a scarf, a book bag.
01:11:52
We can't see nothing. They got to pull away every
01:11:56
piece for us to see that they have a they have been beaten
01:12:00
with blood to like it's kind of going through the clothes.
01:12:04
So you remember I had that concern about The Walking Dead
01:12:08
in the last episode because of where Rosita, uh-oh don't quote
01:12:13
was bit because I told you I saw a promotional image where it
01:12:17
looked like she was Ashton not bit.
01:12:20
Everybody keeps saying she was bit so I'm like, okay, that's
01:12:23
what y'all saying. I'm gonna go with it but the way
01:12:26
that she fell and she had on a hoodie.
01:12:30
How did how did that walk again? Like literally the bite was on
01:12:34
the back of her shoulder. I would that have happened.
01:12:37
I just don't see how that would have happened.
01:12:40
Same here with task, even though I think hers might be a little
01:12:45
bit more explainable because her jacket is open.
01:12:50
Her shirt is not button all the way to the top.
01:12:53
So if she was tussling with the thing it was is it could have
01:12:59
fallen on top of her right there and bitter hers is at least a
01:13:02
little bit more believable. You know, I go with that.
01:13:06
Yeah. But I just want to see, I just
01:13:09
want to say something like they went through the the clothes a
01:13:12
little bit. A lot of times it's not the
01:13:14
clothes, don't even have like tears in them because you know,
01:13:17
they teeth could be Sharp. No, I'm saying you get bitten by
01:13:20
a lion. It's going through your coats is
01:13:22
going to your sweatshirt. I just want to think about her.
01:13:26
Like she does have blood on on this shoulder the shoulder where
01:13:31
she was bit. There is blood on her jacket and
01:13:34
she's also still wearing her book bag and that's the hard.
01:13:37
So it's like, okay, that could be covering whatever tears and
01:13:42
her clothes, or whatever. But again, I feel like because
01:13:44
her clothes are a lot more loose that she probably failed.
01:13:48
Think Fell on top of her chomp-chomp game over.
01:13:53
So I really think that that's probably what happened.
01:13:57
But, you know, once they realize that the infected are coming,
01:14:02
she starts moving into action, she starts knocking over drums,
01:14:07
you know the gas drum, she's letting the gas out and they're
01:14:10
trying to figure out what you doing.
01:14:12
She was like I'm buying you some time and she goes to jail.
01:14:15
She was like save as many as you can.
01:14:19
You know, she was like make this make sense, use it to make up
01:14:23
for all the evil things that we have done and I feel like No,
01:14:27
what kind of equal you enjoy did because there's, there's a
01:14:33
difference between saying we're not good people and looking at
01:14:38
yourself as being evil and having done evil need to know
01:14:41
what y'all did. See, it's just like, Budapest
01:14:43
with Hawkeye. And on Black Widow is like,
01:14:45
there's something that happened. You like what the fuck happened?
01:14:48
Because we still kind of don't know, we know a little bit, but
01:14:51
we really don't know. Most oh, no.
01:14:53
We know about what happened with Natasha.
01:14:55
Yeah. Yes, that's true.
01:14:56
Yeah, we know. No.
01:14:58
I mean that's why she was always talking about the red and her
01:15:01
Ledger, you know, because she as far as she knew she killed
01:15:07
Somebody's Daughter and she was forever trying to work to to
01:15:11
make that up. Yeah, so I guess what?
01:15:13
We approve probably end up finding find out what happened.
01:15:16
But I have a, I have a slight issue with this whole scene.
01:15:22
I have a couple issues. First, first issue I have is,
01:15:27
why were they were like there? Was he afraid to take that truck
01:15:30
or did he not know where did not work?
01:15:33
Cuz I'm sure that truck had to work.
01:15:36
I think it was the fact that the truck was supposed to be loaded
01:15:40
with supplies for them. And it wasn't and when no one
01:15:45
was in the truck, and when there was blood in the truck, I think
01:15:49
Joe might have thought. If he didn't think that, they,
01:15:52
that the people who were there had been attacked.
01:15:55
He was probably thinking it was a double cross, okay, like, oh,
01:15:59
we're going to get Ellie. We're going to get the thing
01:16:01
that y'all were supposed to bring us and then we're going to
01:16:02
kill you. And I don't think they really
01:16:04
what he thought, and I don't think they went for the truck
01:16:07
because they went out the back door because they know they
01:16:09
won't come through that front door.
01:16:12
My second problem is me being the being an avid watcher of
01:16:16
streamers. Who stream, Modern Warfare and
01:16:19
all these others shouldn't games.
01:16:21
When you get to somewhere that has a cache of weapons and all
01:16:25
kinds of other stuff, you loot, guess they have time for that.
01:16:33
No, because first they're trying to figure out what's going on to
01:16:40
when that thing started. Moving and they shot it in the
01:16:43
tendrils came up. He literally ran to the door and
01:16:46
was like, we have, maybe a minute.
01:16:49
There's no time for losers. That's why he didn't go to the
01:16:52
truck because they won't come that way.
01:16:54
That's why they went out the back door, they have time to
01:16:56
grab nothing and they can't be weighed down.
01:17:00
She literally emptied gas drums, she emptied grenades into the
01:17:05
gas, she was about to blow some shit up.
01:17:09
And if they had more weapons, that would have Have that would
01:17:12
have weighed them down, it would have made them slower, they
01:17:15
would not have gotten as far away from the building as they
01:17:18
had. And they probably would have
01:17:19
been taken out by the blast as well.
01:17:21
Okay, I can I can understand that.
01:17:23
Like, yeah, I guess but it's just like, I was looking, I was
01:17:26
like, oh my God, grab ammunition.
01:17:28
What are you doing? Just because I'm like, you know,
01:17:31
that was I was thinking like a gamer like, you know, you gotta
01:17:34
you gotta load up and get up before you leave.
01:17:38
Yeah. No they were thinking like that
01:17:39
but that but that I get out of here that makes more sense.
01:17:51
That's when he looks at her and he is pissed.
01:17:55
No, we're not. Papa.
01:17:58
He was, I little girl, if you don't bring your ass on, we all
01:18:01
going to be dead and it's not going to matter if you are new
01:18:04
at that point. But when when the, when the
01:18:09
affected start running through the door of course they're
01:18:13
going. They're going straight, I don't
01:18:16
know what they're running after at this point, maybe they can
01:18:19
hear them run. I don't know.
01:18:21
But they like literally come in the building and they run a
01:18:23
straight. Now she's sitting there trying
01:18:26
to Start up her lighter. Why is it that whenever you need
01:18:31
a light, especially from a Zippo, especially, that's what
01:18:35
is the Paul decides to go out. Like, really the most reliable
01:18:39
of Lighters? Yes.
01:18:40
The most buzz, windproof and lights every time lighter never
01:18:44
likes me. So why mess with the lighter?
01:18:46
Just get a grenade. Take the pin out when it's time
01:18:49
throw the grenade. I thought that too.
01:18:51
But then I was thinking, I think it was, it had already started
01:18:55
facing her brain, so I don't think she was thinking, About
01:18:59
giving a grenade. Yes, was just pissing felt like
01:19:02
the lighter will do what she have blinders on.
01:19:06
II don't I don't know if I think it was that but one she's coming
01:19:12
to grips with the fact that she's about to die.
01:19:15
Okay, too. I don't know, I know for me
01:19:20
whenever I'm scared, sometimes emotion, or doing something with
01:19:25
my hands kind of, calms me. And maybe that's maybe it was
01:19:29
just one of those things she's like, okay, I need to set the
01:19:31
gas on fire neat, set, the gas on fire.
01:19:33
She's not thinking about anything else because I Like the
01:19:35
grenades. Okay, you can pull the pin on a
01:19:37
grenade. The grenade might be a dud, you
01:19:41
know, the lighter was almost. But the thing about this thing,
01:19:50
she's sitting there, like I said, she's trying to she's
01:19:52
trying to start the lighter and, of course, the lighter is making
01:19:56
noise. so one of the infected happens to come around and looks
01:20:02
at her and I was wondering, I was like, is that the soldier
01:20:07
that Joel killed That's what it looks like because she looked at
01:20:14
him like, almost like she recognized him.
01:20:19
And I was like, is that him? Because the way his face was
01:20:24
kind of messed up. Remember, Joel was like, beating
01:20:28
the shit out of him. So I was like, did he miss his
01:20:31
face up that much in? Is that who that is?
01:20:35
But I wasn't sure but that thing almost stopped again.
01:20:39
We know the clickers, can't see. Because at this point, the
01:20:42
fungus has taken over their eyes.
01:20:44
But this do still had an eye, and if it's true that they are
01:20:50
not quite dead, then it's possible if this was that person
01:20:56
that he might have recognized her a little bit.
01:21:00
That's what I was thinking. Yes, only reason why this is Has
01:21:05
been just 24 hours this man has fungus growing out of the side
01:21:12
of his head. That takes a second.
01:21:17
What does it it does. Because that would be like,
01:21:20
Grandma didn't have fungus growing out of the side though.
01:21:23
It takes to me. Yeah.
01:21:24
But but but but Grandma we know this is only been a few hours.
01:21:28
That's not him. It's nice.
01:21:34
Yeah, yep. And the like the clothes in like
01:21:36
he did send out in the rain for a while because if it if he the
01:21:40
newly, infected will have just the vines and stuff of the
01:21:43
fungus is. Okay, yeah, I said, okay, I see
01:21:46
it now but I Like it's a, it's a very close likeness. enough that
01:21:52
I was like is that the reason why she just kind of stood there
01:21:57
because I'm sorry, I don't care how close to death I am There is
01:22:02
absolutely no fucking way. I'm about to stand there and see
01:22:09
these tendrils coming out of this thing's mouth and let this
01:22:14
fucking infected person. Give me the kiss of death,
01:22:18
right? Taken out, nastiest, French
01:22:22
Kiss, Haver and maybe another pause, like you said, maybe
01:22:31
maybe it was already starting to affect your brain.
01:22:33
Maybe she was just like, I mean, she had already resigned
01:22:35
herself. So dying.
01:22:37
So she was like maybe if he starred I can distract him long
01:22:40
enough. I can finally get this fucking
01:22:42
lighter to work, but then it's like here's the thing.
01:22:45
If that thing had it If it if it because she doesn't know how
01:22:55
fast, it'll Frank her brain. If it's cut, it's going directly
01:22:59
in her mouth is right there at the brain.
01:23:02
She might have done all of that for nothing.
01:23:06
I don't know like you said it might have been affecting her at
01:23:08
that point to where she just wasn't thinking clearly, but she
01:23:12
thinking enough to know, oh my God.
01:23:13
What is going on in man? She you know she finally gets
01:23:16
the light the lighter to light. She drops it and of course you
01:23:20
know, big things go boom. Well those that was like gross
01:23:26
and shit like like I mean he did he is like the look of horror on
01:23:32
her face like you can see it in her eyes.
01:23:34
She was like oh God, this Is so fucking gross.
01:23:39
Like please hurry up in like hurry up, hurry up.
01:23:41
Oh yeah. And the reason why she was quick
01:23:43
to try to get the light because she knows that it's trying to
01:23:46
take over and to know what is going.
01:23:50
What's happening to you? Yeah my God.
01:23:53
That's why I'm saying oh no agent Dunham rest in peace.
01:23:57
He shot out French if you want to see her again.
01:23:59
Yeah yeah it was I mean it the explosion. actually does kill
01:24:07
all of the affected in the area and Joel and Ellie are, you
01:24:10
know, just outside and they see the whole thing and Joe just
01:24:14
kind of looks He just looks the alien, he turns around and walks
01:24:18
and then she just turns around and the last shot you see is of
01:24:24
her, you know, sitting there and she's just standing and the
01:24:30
building is on fire in the background.
01:24:33
And she looks so dejected. Because like I said, I feel like
01:24:37
at the beginning of the episode test was being hard-nosed with
01:24:41
her, but throughout the episode use You see that test is
01:24:47
softening towards her to the point where Elias like, no we
01:24:51
can't leave her and I think she really feels like she's going to
01:24:56
feel some guilt about test his death, because test, was there
01:24:59
trying to get her to where the fireflies were for selfish
01:25:05
reasons. Yes.
01:25:06
But yeah, rest in peace test. Yes, I just the most horrible
01:25:13
way to go. I mean, I just I shouldn't have
01:25:17
to let the thing kiss. Her all of them all up in you
01:25:27
since you called it a kiss that's wait.
01:25:30
He came in for week 8. That was the Dementors kiss If
01:25:41
Ever. I saw one.
01:25:42
We're often down. Just come on.
01:25:51
Spaghetti already. Being affected.
01:25:54
Doesn't really protect you. No, she was already.
01:25:59
She was infected already and but she wasn't taking no real yet.
01:26:04
So it was trying to infect her altogether.
01:26:09
Yeah, it was like, okay, you working too slow.
01:26:11
Let's go on and get this because I don't remember what the chart
01:26:15
said. She probably would have had a
01:26:17
few hours depending on how long it took them to get from the
01:26:22
museum to where they were. What did she say?
01:26:26
She said she said, if you go straight, through is a 10-minute
01:26:29
walk, the state house. So who knows?
01:26:34
They, they had to go through the hotel.
01:26:35
They had to go through the museum.
01:26:37
They had, they did the little fight and then she had a twisted
01:26:41
ankle, so it could have taken them roughly an hour.
01:26:46
Let's say hour, maybe two hours tops from start to finish?
01:26:50
Yes. Oh yes, yes, I was already gone.
01:26:53
She got bitten though when she twists her ankle.
01:26:55
So that walk probably was only Thirty so she had a gonna
01:26:58
probably another hour and a half, maybe?
01:27:01
Yeah. Yeah, that one's going back to
01:27:05
the stores, trying to find the poster.
01:27:07
I'm not good with don't. I'm not free streaming.
01:27:10
Yes, you are. I'm not gonna yeah.
01:27:13
Yeah, freeze ray. Yeah, I'm looking at the the,
01:27:16
the after-show be the I don't know.
01:27:19
Is it? Oh wow.
01:27:21
They look like cauliflower heads.
01:27:23
Yeah, this is broccoli. Cauliflower.
01:27:26
Same things are, okay, why don't you call a flower?
01:27:28
So I'm good. So I'm good.
01:27:30
I don't have to. Yeah, I'm good.
01:27:32
Let's give you an update. This kind of update.
01:27:37
It says, neck face and head. You got 5 to 15 minutes.
01:27:44
Next, so everything here. Okay, so what about torso, torso
01:27:50
arm shoulder which is really shoulder hand.
01:27:54
You got to 28 hours. Okay, let's see how it shines.
01:27:58
So she was coming, she was probably coming right up on that
01:28:01
second hour. Uh-huh.
01:28:04
Yeah, battle think it was a long walk from the museum to where
01:28:09
they were going because they are saying she said, she said it was
01:28:13
at Minute walk, if you were able to go straight through but
01:28:15
remember that building was down. So that's why they had to take
01:28:18
the detours but from the museum to the Statehouse that might
01:28:24
have been a 5-minute walk but she has a twisted ankle so
01:28:28
probably they probably weren't rushing to get there.
01:28:33
Because again at that point they don't even know she's been
01:28:36
bitten. So they're probably like, okay,
01:28:40
let's just try to get there in one piece.
01:28:42
Let's get there, safe, blah, blah, blah, and she had me.
01:28:45
She was walking hot. She was walking kind of fast,
01:28:48
because remember, she was walking ahead of them and she
01:28:51
kept looking back at him, and he's sitting there looking like,
01:28:53
why she's so pissed off. Yep.
01:28:56
That will change. You've been infected, she's
01:29:00
moving fast. So try to move fast, right?
01:29:05
Right. And Yeah.
01:29:12
And you know they were saying in the game.
01:29:15
I'm sorry. One of the one of this has been
01:29:18
fiction is a mood change. That's why I was saying, hmm.
01:29:22
Oh okay, I need to print that poster out so I can have it as a
01:29:26
reference. Anytime somebody that way,
01:29:29
Anthony won't have to freeze frame anymore.
01:29:32
I was just having a baby by proxy which cells actually
01:29:35
freeze for. Yeah, okay, whatever.
01:29:40
Yeah. Yep, this was a really good
01:29:42
episode but when I tell you, I don't know if I can do this for
01:29:45
another eight episodes, this is way too much suspense.
01:29:51
This episode was bigger than the first episode.
01:29:54
It was like that's a good sign. The first episode was good,
01:29:59
right? I think this episode is better
01:30:01
because it was shorter and so they didn't have to put a lot of
01:30:04
unnecessary shit in. It is like they could just
01:30:06
basically get to the point. Because that let the last of the
01:30:10
first episode drag for me. I was just like, are y'all done
01:30:14
yet? Like fucking way too long, but
01:30:20
it's like this one. This one was basically was
01:30:23
pretty damn good. It's just like the, I mean, it
01:30:27
kept your hate. The tension was just kept high,
01:30:32
like when they were in the hotel and she was playing with her
01:30:34
knife. Lean against the wall.
01:30:36
I was like, oh God, they're going to reach through that
01:30:37
wall. Are they?
01:30:38
You were like we should wall and pull her in.
01:30:40
I was like damn it. Yeah.
01:30:43
Fuck. It was like the TV.
01:30:45
I was watching watching it with my phone like this.
01:30:47
Like so I could like hide behind my phone and see you see what's?
01:30:49
What the fuck is going on? That I can't take it.
01:30:52
I wasn't trying to use something as small as my phone.
01:30:54
I was like this house is on the edge of my seat.
01:31:00
Like, yes, that too. It was so much suspense in this
01:31:04
episode like March. and I mean if they continue on this, if
01:31:15
they continue on this trajectory, if the episodes
01:31:18
continue to get better and better and better but more
01:31:24
suspenseful and more suspenseful I don't know.
01:31:31
I don't know if I can handle it. That's just whoo-wee.
01:31:38
I was. I don't know, like I was
01:31:43
expecting the show to be good. I was expecting, you know,
01:31:46
because I heard a lot of great things about it, but I don't
01:31:50
know if I was expecting it to be this good.
01:31:53
This show is really yeah. It's too much.
01:32:02
Man, but the the previews for next week's episode.
01:32:08
All right, you got your what do they call them?
01:32:11
The one, the the Preppers, the ones who are the Doomsday.
01:32:15
Preppers, your Ron Swanson in the house?
01:32:20
I love him. I like how they make it seem
01:32:24
like this is going to be kind of a light heart.
01:32:25
More lighthearted episode was like, it was like because the
01:32:29
humor like with me when he said this is not an Arby's, you don't
01:32:32
get free lunches like Aires is a restaurant thing.
01:32:34
I just was afraid was a wreck. So it kind of kind of seems like
01:32:39
this going to be a little more lighthearted still kind of
01:32:41
serious, but a little more lighthearted the which means
01:32:45
that somebody else is gonna die. Don't let the smooth taste fool
01:32:48
you. Yeah, that just means somebody's
01:32:53
gonna die. Yeah, that's not.
01:32:55
It means so yeah. Oh my goodness, does anybody
01:33:01
have anything else to say? You have any final thoughts on
01:33:05
episode 2 of The Last of Us? Even though I'm a wuss, I'm
01:33:09
enjoying. This is like, I'm literally just
01:33:15
are you a wuss? Mama was I but I admit it.
01:33:18
Yeah, I'm old enough to be comfortable in my wisdom.
01:33:21
So it's like I can admit when I'm a chicken shit.
01:33:24
And I'm looking at this like, no.
01:33:26
No. I was like, I feel like, like
01:33:28
the like that Buzzard in Looney Tunes.
01:33:31
Every time. Something had something's about
01:33:32
to happen. I'm like, no, no, no, nope!
01:33:34
Nope, nope! Nope!
01:33:38
But I'm enjoying this. This is actually pretty good.
01:33:41
I didn't think I'd like I'd like it that much was like I was like
01:33:45
I'm gonna give it a couple episodes then maybe I'll bow out
01:33:47
but I'm like actually wants to listen to what's going to happen
01:33:50
but I'm serious now I guess. I mean, for me I'm I was excited
01:34:00
about this but everyone knows how I feel about zombies and
01:34:04
once again this is not zombies. I like World War Z and they're
01:34:10
not really zombies. So, I'm okay with this.
01:34:13
Is this pretty good? Okay, yeah, but I truly enjoy
01:34:17
it. It makes me want to play the
01:34:19
video games - PlayStation. I cannot get up.
01:34:23
Ya don't have a PlayStation. So, none of that.
01:34:27
There's two. We have a PlayStation here or I
01:34:30
should say, my son has a PlayStation.
01:34:32
I cannot get it at know because I I have no time in my day.
01:34:37
No, I'm saying when you go, where you going to play this?
01:34:40
Like? Yeah, that is true.
01:34:42
And I'm enjoying the videos that I have seen concerning.
01:34:46
This episode. One is a young lady who said
01:34:49
after last night's episode, she opened up the cabinet and saw
01:34:52
the flower and said nope. Yeah, I don't blame her.
01:34:58
I'd be, I'd be I'd be throwing it.
01:34:59
Let me throwing everything away like nah.
01:35:03
I'll be on the Atkins diet. Like the dad said, I'm saying
01:35:06
you'll see it in the beginning. I'm going straight Quito like no
01:35:09
flower of us were ever like nah man.
01:35:11
They call me going paleo keto. Like I mean mean jeez I ain't
01:35:15
fucking money off. Yeah, I'm enjoying this alive.
01:35:21
I'm looking forward to the next eight episodes before we close
01:35:26
out. I do want to do a couple of
01:35:29
promotions, Anthony. As recently appeared on the what
01:35:35
is a podcast of mighty mighty other say that five times fast a
01:35:42
podcast of Amontillado. Yes.
01:35:45
Podcast with our friends Gary Mitchell from Dragon Con monster
01:35:50
Amo from a whole bunch of things and Aaron were Gorn and you guys
01:35:55
talked about clouds well clowns and horror.
01:36:01
Hmm. It was fun.
01:36:04
It was really fun. Yeah.
01:36:06
How did like I guess I would say how did you even get into that?
01:36:11
But they cover a lot of horror on that particular podcast.
01:36:15
Yeah, it's a horrible. Yes, what a podcast.
01:36:17
Okay. Yeah.
01:36:19
So I'm going to have to listen to that tried, listening to it
01:36:21
at work, and I kept getting distracted.
01:36:24
I'm like, no, I can't when it comes to listening to, and I
01:36:27
think you and I had this conversation yesterday in the
01:36:30
office, I find Hard to listen to podcast when I'm when I'm
01:36:36
working because it's a conversation and I'm listening
01:36:42
to the words and a lot of times with my job, I'm typing.
01:36:46
So I end up typing what I'm listening to, and I'm like, no,
01:36:48
I can't do. This music is different because
01:36:51
you've got the, you've got the track, the music that kind of
01:36:55
distracts from it. But I tried to listen to it the
01:36:57
other day and I started laughing at some of the stuff you guys
01:37:00
were saying and that I got distracted.
01:37:01
I was like, no, there's too many people coming in and out of my
01:37:04
office and I'm not sure if this is safe for work, or if it's
01:37:07
going to have a lot of curse words and I was like, okay, I'll
01:37:10
just have to listen to it later, but it was fun.
01:37:14
Gary, Gary Gary and Aaron are both very knowledgeable about
01:37:18
horror. Okay, get your hair put out of
01:37:21
had asked about anyone being interested.
01:37:24
I'm not really a horrible person, but I've seen my fair
01:37:28
share of war in Ali. I've seen a lot of clowns in the
01:37:31
42 like shit. I'd be on it podcast with you
01:37:35
and it was it was really fun. Oh, so you want to take it out.
01:37:41
It's one of the few podcast of myself that I've listened to
01:37:44
because it was hilarious, okay? And that one we do have that
01:37:50
linked on our Facebook page and I've also bookmarked it on our
01:37:56
YouTube page in the FHP around the web playlist, so you can
01:38:02
find that That they're all. So I had an opportunity last
01:38:05
week to be on the earth station. One podcast part of the eso
01:38:11
Network and we discussed the first season of Interview with
01:38:16
the Vampire which is one of the shows that we wanted to cover on
01:38:20
this podcast but we just have not had the time.
01:38:23
So when they put out a you know a call for people who want to
01:38:26
talk about it, I kind of jumped at the chance.
01:38:28
So had a fun hour chatting with Mike, Mike In our friend.
01:38:33
Dina you know Dina is a friend of the podcast.
01:38:36
She's done panels with us and she's guessed it on our
01:38:41
conjuration. So a couple of months ago.
01:38:43
So we got to do that and talk about that, that can be found on
01:38:47
the Sol networks, Facebook page, or station ones, Facebook page.
01:38:52
We have also linked that on the fandom hybrid page on Spotify
01:38:58
YouTube so you can find both of those shows around.
01:39:02
And the web. If you guys would just go give
01:39:04
it a listen, like, comment, let us know how you enjoy it.
01:39:10
You know, I'm enjoying kind of branching out and visiting with
01:39:14
other people and you know kind of getting some different point
