When you follow that through, it seems pretty clear that the flashback at the end of episode 5 is building up to something. The Last of Us is well known for breaking the mould with its standout episodes, some of which — think episodes 3 and episodes 7 in Season 1 — take us on journeys into the past.

In our recap of The Last of Us season two, episode four, we break down all the new revelations and questions the series brings up.

Season 2 of The Last Of Us has been a bit of a mixed bag so far, with some really gripping moments and some odd choices that got the season off to a wobbly start. I’m pleased to say that it’s finally found its footing in the fourth episode. Spoilers ahead.
