At the same time, it presents the Fireflies’ cause as morally just but one that’s being fought for using reprehensible methods. Maybe Kansas City would have worked out better if Kathleen had not been so focused on revenge, but we’ll never know.
#THE LAST OF US DLC 3 SERIES#
Except for Jackson - a tiny, self-contained, isolated commune - the series has depicted the choice between chaos and FEDRA’s fascism as the only options. He’s not necessarily wrong, either, at least based on what we’ve witnessed over the course of the series. Kwong’s a FEDRA true believer, telling Ellie, “No matter what anyone out there says or thinks, we’re the only ones holding this whole thing together.” Without FEDRA, the only other choice is chaos. And it’s obvious he’d like to have a smart kid like Ellie as an officer. Rather than put her in the hole, again, Kwong lays out the two paths ahead of her: She can be a grunt all her life, doing “shit jobs” and taking orders from awful people like Bethany, or she can live the comparatively cozy life of an officer. That punch also lands Ellie in the principal’s office, where she talks to Captain Kwong (Terry Chen) about her behavioral issues. When Bethany taunts Ellie by saying she doesn’t fight and that the friend who does fight isn’t here, Ellie responds with a punch that, we’ll soon learn, sends Bethany to the infirmary in need of stitches. The episode’s action shifts back to the Boston QZ and Ellie’s life as a FEDRA soldier in training, a grind of schoolwork (with a heavy emphasis on physical fitness), and bullying at the hands of a much taller classmate named Bethany. She gives a look that suggests she’s steeling herself for the decision, and though she hesitates before turning the doorknob, she walks through it.Ĭue flashback. In fact, Joel’s pretty sure he’s dying, telling Ellie she needs to leave him, head north, and look for Tommy. Sure, Ellie’s found what was once a cozy suburban home they can use as a hideout, one with a garage big enough to accommodate their horse, but Joel is in critical condition after suffering the stab wound that ended the previous episode. As “Left Behind” opens, the situation remains dire.
When we last saw our heroes, Joel and Ellie, things weren’t looking so great for Joel.
