Left Behind: getting to know Ellie’s backstoryĮpisode 7 of The Last of Us begins where the sixth episode left off. And now we have seen it again, with an episode 7 that has lived up to one of the most remembered moments of the saga. We already saw it in episode 3, in which the plot took a pause to tell the beautiful homosexual love story between Bill and Frank. The Last of Us is largely a story about parenthood, and so it is told through the perspective of the parental figure.It is in the pauses, in the moments away from the frenetic action of the video game, where the HBO Max series contributes the most. In “ Kin,” the show explores Ellie’s anxiety at the possibility of being abandoned by Joel, but the character arc of the episode follows Joel as he makes the active decision to stay with Ellie. While Ellie is a well-developed character, thanks to both Craig Mazin’s scripting and Bella Ramsey’s performance, the show still unfolds largely from the perspective of Joel. According to Neil Druckmann, the original plan was for the first episode to follow Joel through the apocalypse and then “ end on the 20 years later where you see Joel throw the kid in the fire.”

In fact, Ellie wasn’t supposed to appear in the original version of the series premiere. After all, the bulk of “ When You’re Lost in the Darkness” was given over to exploring Joel’s backstory and history. Nevertheless, there is a strong sense that The Last of Us is more Joel’s story than Ellie’s. Pascal and Ramsey are the show’s only two credited leads, and the series charts the evolution of the relationship between the pair. It is the story of Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey). The Last of Us is undoubtedly a two-hander. This discussion and review contains spoilers for The Last of Us episode 7, “Left Behind.”
