Need a recap of the first episode of TheLastofUs? We got you covered:
Spoiler Warning: This article will contain major spoilers for HBO's The Last of Us and Naughty Dog's The Last of Us video game from 2013.
After school, Sarah stops by a watch shop in the city where she has Joel's broken watch repaired. As numerous police cars and emergency vehicles race through the streets outside, a woman comes out and urgently tells Sarah to go home because they are abruptly closing. Sarah stops by her neighbor's house where she borrows a movie to watch with Joel, but out of her sight, the elderly woman begins to violently twitch and make disturbing facial expressions.
However, the soldier notes to his commanding officer over the radio that Sarah is injured and is ordered to kill Joel and Sarah. The soldier opens fire as Joel turns his body with Sarah in his arms and tumbles over after getting hit. Joel lays on his back and begs for mercy from the man who is about to execute him. Thankfully, Tommy shoots the soldier, but it's not all good news. Joel was just barely grazed by the soldier's bullets, but Sarah was hit.
Joel enters an apartment building and sits down to talk with an older man who controls a radio to communicate with people outside the QZ. He asks the old man for an update on Tommy's whereabouts after losing contact with him several weeks ago, but there is no news. Joel then makes a plan to go searching for Tommy across the country in Wyoming.
Joel and Tess eventually track the truck battery to the Firefly HQ where Robert, his men, and a bunch of Fireflies lie dead. The battery is deemed unusable before Joel encounters an injured Marlene and Ellie, who lunges at Joel with her knife, but is quickly disarmed. Joel notes that he needs the battery to go find Tommy, who is also a Firefly, and Marlene makes a deal to give him a new battery, truck, and guns if he can get Ellie to another group of Fireflies for a hand-off at the State House.
Differences Between Game and ShowSo naturally, as an adaptation, things between the game and show aren't one to one. The biggest changes really revolve around everything up until the outbreak in the first half of the episode. In the game, players are dropped into the night of the outbreak. The scene with the epidemiologists is an entirely new addition that helps make it clear out the gate that this isn't just a traditional zombie virus.
