Our last episode 4 begins with Ellie (Bella Ramsey) trying to practice using a gun without Joel (Pedro Pascal) know about it. This will come into play later in the episode. Ellie and Joel continued their journey west and stopped for the night. They ate 20-year-old Chef Boyardee’s ravioli dumplings and Ellie had never heard of this delicious dish before.
The next morning, Ellie smelled a stench. Nothing is rotting. It’s just coffee. She told Joel that the coffee “smells like burnt.” Boldness!
When they hit the road again, Ellie asks Joel about Tommy. Joel says his brother is a “carpenter” and has always dreamed of being a hero. Before the outbreak, Tommy served in Desert Storm. Afterward outbreak, Tommy convinced Joel to join a group. That’s where they met Tess. Tommy eventually meets Marlene, who talks to him about Fireflies. Joel calls Tommy and the Fireflies “illusion”. Apparently, Tommy has left Firefly and now Joel has to go find him.
Joel and Ellie begin driving through an abandoned city when someone drops a lump of coal on a truck. A young man begged them to stop. Others suddenly started shooting at the truck. More shots were fired after Joel and Ellie collided. A man attacked Joel and began strangling him. Joel was dying when Ellie shot the man to save Joel.
The young man named Brian immediately stepped back. He started crying and begged them to take him to his mother. Joel took the gun from Ellie’s hand. Joel was about to shoot Brian when Brian threw him his knife. Joel ordered Ellie to go behind the wall so she wouldn’t see what he was about to do. Ellie never heard the gunfire, but Brian suddenly stopped crying. She wiped a few tears from her eyes.
Elsewhere, a woman named Kathleen, do yellow jacket star Melanie Lynskey, interrogating a doctor in a cell. She believes this doctor knows where this mysterious Henry is. “This has gone too far,” the doctor said. He swears he never told “them” anything about Kathleen’s brother. Kathleen and Henry clearly have beef. He’s still in the city, and she’s hunting him.
Kathleen’s interrogation is cut short by the siren outside. She thinks Henry is responsible for what happened to Brian. “This is Henry’s job,” she said. Kathleen turns inside and shoots the doctor. She wants to find every collaborator and kill them all. Meanwhile, Joel and Ellie are trying to keep a close eye. Joel knew they were running out of time.
Joel takes a moment to ask Ellie if she’s okay. He clearly feels bad that she has to resort to violence to protect him. “I know what it feels like the first time you hurt someone like that,” he said. He wished she didn’t have to save him. “I’m sorry,” he told Ellie. She wiped more tears from her eyes. “It wasn’t my first time,” she admitted. As a result of what happened, Joel taught Ellie how to use a gun properly.
Kathleen is shown what appears to be Henry’s hideout. There are food cans and drawings. She knows that Henry won’t let Sam starve. She ordered the guards to guard the terms. Henry and Sam can’t be far away. Then the guard took Kathleen to another room downstairs. The floor cracked and started to move. Kathleen says seal the building now. She will deal with it later.
Ellie and Joel started moving again. They climbed some stairs to find safety. She asks him if he has killed innocent people before. Joel stopped and didn’t answer. They look for a place to spend the night. This time, he asked her about how she said she’d hurt people before. “I don’t want to talk about it,” Ellie said quietly. Joel tells her she doesn’t have to but says it’s not fair that she has to do it at her age. Ellie made jokes to lighten the mood. Both laughed.
They fall asleep, but Ellie wakes Joel in the night. She is being pointed at. When he turned around, a kid with red paint on his eyes was pointing a gun at him. The boy motioned for Joel to be quiet.
