Recap of The Last of Us season 2 episode 1
Episode 1 begins in Salt Lake City with the surviving Fireflies mourning the dead. One of the fireflies happens to be Abby, who swears revenge on Joel and the members, then joins the W.L.F. The episode flashes forward five years and picks up with it being revealed that Joel has started therapy, as there is a rift between him and Ellie.
When Joel visits his therapist, Gail, she confronts him about him leaving some details out and not telling her the full story. She also tells him that she still hates him for killing her husband Eugene, even though she knows he had no choice. She then asks Joel whether he hurt Ellie, and he leaves from there saying that he saved her.
Ellie is then seen going out on a patrol with Dina, on whom she has a slight crush. The two come across a new kind of infected when trying to clear out an abandoned shopping store, and report it to the Jackson community. They then head out to celebrate New Year's Eve, where they share their first kiss.
However, things take a sour turn when one of the townsmen calls them a homophobic slur, which leads to Joel shoving him to the ground. Ellie then lashes out at Joel, saying she doesn't need his help. The episode ends with a horde of infected coming to Jackson while Abby also emerges with her group from the woods.
