Recap of The Last of Us season 2 episode 1
The season begins with the remaining Fireflies from the end of season 1 mourning the dead and a girl by the name of Abby swearing revenge on Joel. After that, the episode flashes forward to five years in the future and sees Ellie and Joel living in Jackson. With Joel being more involved in the building of Jackson, Ellie can be seen going out on patrols and also has a friendship with Dina and Jessie.
It is also revealed that there is a rift between Ellie and Joel, and the latter is going to therapy for it. When Joel visits his therapist, Gail, she immediately clocks that he isn't telling her the full story and refuses to help him. She then tells Joel that she is still angry about him killing her husband, Eugene, even though she knew he had no choice. Joel then leaves therapy by telling Gail that he saved Ellie.
Dina and Ellie also go out on patrol together, where they take out a new kind of infected known as the Stalker. The same night is New Year's Eve, and Dina and Ellie dance with each other at the party and share a kiss too. They are then heckled by a man who tells them to go away and calls them a slur, but Joel pushes him to the ground. However, Ellie gets mad at Joel and says she doesn't need his help.
The episode then ends with the reveal that a horde of infected is set to attack the town, while Abby and her crew can be seen emerging from the woods as well and are headed for Jackson.
