Bella Ramsey, who plays Ellie in The Last of Us, was a recent guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. To introduce her to the audience, the host, Jimmy Fallon, shared how excited he was to watch the second season of the zombie drama. But, before that, the audience might want a refresher on Season 1, and he can help the audience out with Bella’s help, who then entered the stage.

As Ramsey came to the stage, the beats started, and Fallon began with the line:

"There’s a dude named Joel, he was daddy."

The next line was Ramsey’s as she quipped,

"It’s Pedro Pascal, The Zombie Zaddy!"

Pedro Pascal’s Joel Miller is a father at the beginning of the series, and he has a daughter named Sarah (Nico Parker).

Next was the introduction of Bella’s character, Ellie, who was introduced as having “a lot of knives and puns,” which is accurate as Ellie carries around weapons to fight in a dire situation and also carries a book of puns.

Later, they introduced Tess (Anna Torv), who was part of Joel and Ellie’s journey but is bitten by a zombie on the way to escort Ellie to the Fireflies. They also recount the events where Ellie was attacked by a cannibal named David.

Lastly, they accurately shared the end of season 1 by rapping about Ellie’s fate: to save the world, Ellie has to die. However, Joel backs out of the arrangement with the Fireflies and lies to Ellie that it didn’t work as they found other immune people.
