There’s only one episode remaining in The Last of Us season 2, but the finale is far from the end of the story.
However, The Last of Us season 2, episode 6 may be the final time that Pedro Pascal appears as Joel. Following Joel’s death at the hands of Abby (Kaitlyn Dever) earlier this season, Pascal has been kept off-screen. Fortunately, episode 6’s extended flashbacks gave the audience some closure for Joel’s time on the show.
Ellie (Bella Ramsey), on the other hand, won’t be satisfied until she’s tracked down Abby and made her pay for Joel’s demise. She can’t be at peace until that happens.
To get everyone ready for the last episode of the season, Watch With Us has put together this guide to everything you need to know about The Last of Us season 2 finale.

What Happened in ‘The Last of Us’ Season 2, Episode 6?
Almost the entire episode took place in the past. The first flashback introduced Better Call Saul‘s Tony Dalton as Javier Miller, the father of Joel and Tommy. Joel put himself between his father’s abusive rage and his younger brother, and he was rewarded for his bravery with a heart-to-heart conversation. Javier also expressed his hope that Joel will do better with his own children than he did with his.
To a certain extent, Joel did. The rest of the episode touches on Joel’s life with Ellie in Jackson, including the time he gave her a hand-crafted guitar for her birthday. However, the emotional distance between Joel and Ellie grew larger over the years, especially when she declared her intent to move out of his house. On Ellie’s 19th birthday, she and Joel went out on patrol and encountered Eugene (Joe Pantoliano) after he had been infected. Eugene begged Joel to let him see his wife, Gail (Catherine O’Hara), one last time. Ellie made Joel agree to that, but she was angered when Joel executed Eugene anyway. That’s why she exposed his lies to Gail.
In the final flashback, Ellie confronted Joel after the New Year’s Eve party and demanded the truth about what happened with the Fireflies. Joel admitted that he executed all of them rather than let Ellie be euthanized in the name of finding a cure. Ellie was angered because she felt that was worth dying for, but she told Joel that she wanted to try to forgive him. In turn, Joel told Ellie that he hopes she does better with her children.
What’s Going to Happen in ‘The Last of Us’ Season 2, Episode 7?
Expect to see a major turning point for Ellie’s story, since this episode will be the last for at least a year or two. It will be interesting to see if The Last of Us leans into a cliffhanger ending or if the conclusion to season 2 will be left more open-ended.
HBO and Max started May on a quiet note. Several of their big premieres, like the next season of And Just Like That and the new Steve Carell film Mountainhead, are being saved for later in the month. That doesn’t mean there’s nothing to watch on the streamer, though. The Young Pope is already streaming […]
