While the first episode mostly introduces new characters and looks into Joel and Ellie’s life in Jackson, we still got glimpses of what challenges await the duo.
Joel and Ellie’s relationship seems strained due to Joel still trying to protect now a 19-year-old Ellie, which does not sit right with her. While a new threat to them, Abby, played by Kaitlyn Dever, is looking for Joel to take revenge for the chaos he caused with the fireflies in the finale of season 1.
Moreover, in the premiere episode, Ellie also encounters an infected woman who uses some strategic fighting techniques while fighting Ellie, depicting that the infected might be evolving. Moreover, the woman also bites Ellie in the belly.
What happened in The Last of Us Season 2, Episode 1?
The premiere episode of The Last of Us season 2, titled Future Days, showed how Ellie and Joel are living in Jackson, Wyoming, five years after Joel protected Ellie from the fireflies. However, he still hasn’t told her the truth and is struggling to keep it all in as we see him break down in front of his therapist.
Finally, a fan-favourite character is introduced as we see Abby vowing to take revenge on Joel, and at the end of the episode, she also tries to approach their abode at night.
Ellie and Dina’s relationship takes a new exciting turn after their dance at the New Year's Eve dance, but her relationship with Joel does not improve as she finally bursts on him for helping and protecting her too much.
The next episode of the post-apocalyptic drama will be an exciting one as new threats might be heading Joel and Ellie’s way, making their life more dangerous and causing clashes in their already tense relationship.
