The Last of Us Season 2 dropped an action-packed new episode on April 21, ending with a shocking and heartbreaking twist - especially for those unfamiliar with the game. While the main storyline closely follows The Last of Us Part II - on which the second season is based - Episode 2, titled 슬롯사이트œThrough the Valley슬롯사이트�, features several key changes where the series diverges significantly from the game.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트˜The Last of Us슬롯사이트� Season 2 Episode 2: 슬롯사이트˜Don슬롯사이트™t Send Threats to Kaitlyn Dever슬롯사이트�! Pedro Pascal슬롯사이트™s HBO Series Recreates Game슬롯사이트™s Most Shocking Moment and Fans Are Heartbroken.

SPOILERS AHEAD...슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Some major elements from the game are retained. Joel (Pedro Pascal) rescues Abby (Kaitlyn Dever) from a vast horde of the undead, unknowingly sealing his own fate. By the end of the episode, he is no longer alive, paying the price for a critical mistake made in the previous season. Just like in the game, Joel슬롯사이트™s death sets his foster daughter Ellie (Bella Ramsey) on a path of vengeance that drives the story forward.

However, how these plot points are handled involves notable creative liberties that alter the narrative to some degree in the show.

Here are five major ways The Last of Us Season 2, Episode 2, diverges from the game:

1. Horde Attack in Jackson

In the show, after chasing Abby and failing to capture her - thanks to Joel슬롯사이트™s intervention - the horde redirects its attention to the Jackson commune. The infected breach the community슬롯사이트™s defences and kill many residents, forcing Tommy (Gabriel Luna) to step up as a leader and fight off the invaders. This entire sequence is not present in the game.

2. Sex Scene Between Ellie and Dina Cut

Like the game, the previous episode featured Ellie and Dina (Isabela Merced) expressing their feelings with a kiss at the New Year슬롯사이트™s ball. In the game, they later go on a patrol where they take shelter in a library during a blizzard. Here, they talk about their previous night's kiss, become more intimate and have sex. However, in the series, Ellie goes on patrol with Jesse (Young Mazino) instead, leading to a different set of emotional exchanges.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천So what was Dina up to in the show? Well, that's a very interesting change for her character's arc...

3. Dina Replaces Tommy

A Still From The Last of Us S2E2

In the game, Joel rescues Abby and takes her back to her group, where he is ultimately killed. Tommy is present with Joel during this encounter and is incapacitated by Abby슬롯사이트™s friends. Witnessing Joel슬롯사이트™s death drives Tommy into a revenge-fuelled mission, where he even kills Manny.

In the show, however, Tommy remains at Jackson leading the defence against the horde, while Dina accompanies Joel on the patrol and is the one overpowered by Abby슬롯사이트™s crew. Since Dina now has seen Joel슬롯사이트™s killers, we wonder if she will take on Tommy슬롯사이트™s role from the game - perhaps even being the one to kill Manny (Danny Ramirez). While Dina served as Ellie슬롯사이트™s emotional anchor in the game, encouraging her to abandon her destructive path, we hope that dynamic isn슬롯사이트™t entirely lost in the show.

4. Abby슬롯사이트™s Monologue

In the game, Abby wastes no time. Upon bringing Joel in their group's midst, she attacks, tortures, and ultimately kills him without explaining her motives. In the series, however, Kaitlyn Dever슬롯사이트™s Abby delivers a monologue justifying her actions before killing him. While this shift allows Dever to showcase her acting range, it슬롯사이트™s a surprising departure from the game슬롯사이트™s cold-blooded brutality.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트˜The Last of Us슬롯사이트� Season 2 Premiere: From Isabela Merced슬롯사이트™s Dina to Catherine O슬롯사이트™Hara슬롯사이트™s Gail, 8 New Main Characters Introduced in Episode 1 슬롯사이트� Who슬롯사이트™s Straight From the Game?슬롯 머신 사이트 추천

5. Joel Gets Stabbed As Well

In the game, Joel is killed by a brutal swing of Abby슬롯사이트™s golf club. In the show, however, after enduring a savage beating, he is also stabbed in the neck슬롯사이트”this added detail becomes the fatal blow. It슬롯사이트™s a small but notable difference that adds another layer of violence to his demise.
