It seems to collect some supplies He left behind there once many years ago Ellie goes goes crazy overseeing an old arcade Video game inside the shop Ellie wanders around the shop while Joel tries to remember where he left the supplies Ellie finds a hatch in a room and shines her flashlight down the hatch before going down into it Down in the hatch Ellie is fine at first while she searches for items until she hears a clicker The clicker is unable to do much due to it being nearly dead I'll say Ellie approaches it and cuts his forehead with a knife before stabbing it to death Joel starts to call for her and she returns back upstairs not mentioning anything of what she just did down in that hatch So then Ellie and Joel continue their hike and Ellie asked how the chaos with the cordyceps started and Joel says no one is sure But he knows it wasn't monkeys because Ellie is talking about monkeys during this exchange. He begins connecting the spread To food that we eat every day Ellie says that makes more sense than monkeys, of course it does We jumped to September 30th 2003 so going back in time because we know this series is set in 2023 Jumping to September 30th 2003 We are shown a room of where a man named Bill is watching the streets through several monitors in some type of bunker or basement Bill seems to be hiding from the New World Order that is taking over since the outbreak aka Federa He refers to them just as the New World Order The man or in this case bill makes his way upstairs leaves his house and make sure it's safe before driving off in his truck Bill collects some supplies in town and heads back home Bill spots an infected on his monitor while he eats and watches as it falls victim to a trap of course finding humor in this We jumped to 2007 and are still following bill bill goes out to check on a man That has fallen into one of his traps and ask him questions before letting him out This man is named Frank and he's from the Boston quarantine zone or Baltimore. I believe he said if I'm pretty sure it was Boston Bill lands or hands him a ladder to Climb out of the hole and checks to make sure that Frank isn't infected He reluctantly takes Frank back to his house and lets him shower and gives him new clothes and a meal Frank and Bill start getting to know each other Frank plays Bill's piano and Frank says that he'll leave after Bill plays a song on the piano Bill agrees and Frank seems to enjoy it He asked who the girl is that Bill is singing about and Bill says there is no girl before the two start kissing Frank and Bill eventually have sex we then jumped to 2010 and Frank is storming out of the house from an argument with Bill Frank is trying to make friends But Bill isn't wanting to explore that because there are no friends to be had we then jumped to a meal between Tess Joel Bill and Frank as we learned these were the folks Frank wanted to invite over Frank offers to take tests inside to show her something while Joel and Bill chat outside at the table Joel tells Bill there are supplies in the QZ He doesn't have access to and Bill says he has all he needs right here and doesn't need Joel or tests Joel and test leave but Joel tells Bill that this housing situation can't last forever and pretty soon Raiders are gonna come and Bill says they'll be fine Yeah, they're not going to be fine We then jump to tune in 2013 with Bill and Frank running for exercise Frank takes Bill to a strawberry pasture. He's grown and the two share a sweet moment together Later at night Frank is woken up by an explosion outside This is the Raiders and tries to find Bill Frank ultimately goes outside with a gun to save Bill Who was outside defending their property Bill is shot So Frank takes him inside to help him but Bill passes out from the injury We then jump to 2023 so we're back in modern times Frank is wheelchair bound He's on meds spends his time painting and Bill is taking care of him Frank tells Bill that he's on his last day Because he he I'm assuming he's sick. He has to I'm assuming he must have Some type of illness they didn't specify what it is So I don't want to say what I'm assuming but if you guys if you if you caught on to something I miss let me know what does he have because this is very different from the game Bill is struggling to accept this about Frank dying But Frank talks him through it telling Bill to make his last day his best day And he wants to get he wants to get married by the end of the day Both men share a glass of wine filled with pills that will kill them both Bill couldn't live without Frank and wants to die with him because he's old and says he satisfied and says that Frank was his Purpose Ellie and Joel make their way to Bill and Frank's Joel goes inside of the house with Ellie Joel tells Ellie to stay put while he goes searching the house Ellie finds a letter from Bill and gives a key to Joel confirming that they are both dead Ellie reads the letter and and it tells Joel to take anything he needs Also, it tells him to take care of tests which also opens up a wound for Joel because Ellie actually tries to skip over this but Joel takes the letter from her to see what it says that she doesn't want to read And it says take care of tests Joel ends up finding a car and Plans to head to Wyoming in search of Uncle Tommy he tells Ellie she can come and set some ground rules first before letting her come with him The two collect some supplies before driving off in the truck. Now, I will say one of the most Fun fun moments or at least I thought this was a cute moment in this episode Was when Ellie got into a car and it was her very first time in a car and the way Bella Ramsey is Demonstrating the shock of what a car is through Ellie. I thought she did a very tremendous job at doing this And it kind of just highlighted how much this generation in this universe has missed out on and how much they do not know About certain things because of the society that they have grown up in that's very different from the society We all know we live in in our own reality So I thought that was a cute little thing to see you guys can let me know what you think about episode 3 down in the Comment section below. Did you like it? Did you not like it? Was it as good as you thought it would be because I know this has been hyped up a lot I will go out of my way to say that this is still yes one of the best episodes of Television I've had the pleasure of seeing I wouldn't put it up there with with episodes from series like Buffy Like I'm thinking of episodes like the body or other even more prominent episodes from that same series Buffy That I love to talk about so to say like the gift I don't think it was that good, but it was definitely a very technically strong episode with some great sweet moments I would say what it was the most emotionally Heartbreaking episode given the relationship between Bill and Frank, but everything about the episode I would say was near perfect. It was a solid new addition to the series It's just another banger of an episode as far as I'm concerned And I was satisfied with the radical changes that they did with the Frank and Bill narrative Let me know what you guys think about this down in the comment section below If you haven't already of course make sure you subscribe turn on post notification You never miss a video in the description.
