I saw a short piece of an interview with Ramsey. She didn’t seem to be likable, but to be fair it was only 1 piece of 1 interview so I can’t really have an impression about the actress.

Thank you.

Good to know that I am not alone. lol

Technically, no. It is a lawless world. She did murder a man in a world where people are endangered, because he saved his “daughter”. Abby’s father was part of a group that caused Joel and Ellie to make a long, dangerous trip under false pretenses. They did not tell them using her for research would involve killing her.

I think we already had her POV this season and I would have felt sorry for her had she not killed Joel. Joel killed her father, and while he wasn’t armed. She saw him as a murderer rather than as a “father” who over-responded while trying to save his daughter’s life.

Maybe Dina knows that Jesse fell in love with that traveling artist and resents him for it. Their relationship troubles were never explained in Season 2 and that would fit.

I never played the game. I’ve noticed enough from the conversations here that the series is different from the game.

We didn’t even get to see Ellie die. We saw the gun being shot before the scene was switched to Day 1. I bet in Season 3 ( another year from now ) we will be shown that Abbie missed. Worse that the bullet only went into a leg or a hip and Ellie somehow survied. It sucks that Jesse died for Ellie, possibly Tommie too. Jackson should have exiled Ellie after Joel died. She doesn’t cooperate and she puts other people in danger.

They switched scenes instead of showing Ellie die. All you saw was the gunshot.

“Zombie” means a moving dead person. The infected are infected, they aren’t dead. Two different types of “monster”. The show isn’t the video game. I would guess the writers are trying to flesh out the inspiration of the video game into a full story. One central element in the story is how FEDRA became a fascist organization. The bit about those cops/troops making up names to mock people fits in with the mentality suck cops/soldiers are likely to have. It made me think that is how many in the 47th administration probably think of U.S. citizens at this point and that scene might be a partial glimpse into our future.
