The Last of Us Season 2, episode 6 packs such an emotional punch that it's difficult to see past Joel (Pedro Pascal) finally playing "Future Days" for Ellie (Bella Ramsey), or the teary scene in which he comes clean about what really happened at the Firefly hospital.

The Last of Us season two, episode six brings us many answers we seek in a series of flashbacks between Joel and Ellie.

The latest episode of HBO's post-apocalyptic thriller drama deviated from the game’s narrative to tell a deeper story about the characters, including Gail and Eugene.

Just when we thought the wound of episode 2 might be healing, The Last of Us picks at the scab with episode 6. A flashback episode shows Ellie (Bella Ramsey) and Joel (Pedro Pascal) in happier times, specifically, with a series of Ellie's birthdays in Jackson.
