The Last of Us | Episode 3 Reaction 

2:20 - Hey Bells and Alicia. It is true that they are used as trailmarkers. They're known as cairns. They are also made as memorials to honor the dead (in this case, Joel did it for Tess).

The 80s song in the first episode is Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again. Listen to it in the context of Bill and Frank. "I'm taking a ride with my best friend I hope he never lets me down again He knows where he's taking me Taking me where I want to be I'm taking a ride with my best friend"

The whole episode was so well done. The only issue I had was the super-prepper Bill's plan for repelling raiders being taking potshots with a rifle while fully exposed on an illuminated open street. Can't even tell me that guy wouldn't have a network of pillboxes with overlapping fields of fire all set up.

Me too, guys. Me fucking, too.. I've seen a lot of great tv in my life and this is definitely one of the best episodes of anything ever. I love this show so far and I am confident the rest will be great, but this episode stands out just so much. Thanks for crying with me.

The episode is about the main theme of The Last of Us. Surviving vs Living. Bill taught Frank how to survive, and Frank taught Bill how to live.s That argument in the street is where the game Bill and the show Bill's timeline diverge. In the game Bill says absolutely not, Frank starts resenting him because he’s an extrovert. Eventually Frank leaves, gets bitten, hangs himself to not turn. And leaves an angry letter to Bill, to which Bill swallows his tears and feelings and goes, “Well then fuck you too”. Bill will die bitter and angry having never lived at all. In the show Bill compromised a bit, and let Frank love him how he wanted to love him. Let him make a friend, Tess and Joel. Spruce up the neighborhood. Frank in turn compromised and settled for just that. It’s still an apocalypse, he can’t invite too many people or do too much. So they both died satisfied, in each other’s arms, after a full life. In either case their plot purpose is to teach Joel that surviving isn’t enough. In the game Bill shows Joel how bad and purposeless his life can be if he doesn’t open up. In the show Bill shows Joel how good it can be if he opens up. Bill lets the "danger" song play so that Joel and Tess would come, and get all the weapons and things they needed to have a happy ending like he did. If you read the rest of the letter Bill tells Joel which wine to use in order for Joel to woo Tess and start doing more than just surviving. But it's too late for Tess. Joel reads the letter and realizes that Frank died happy. And Tess died never having that chance. He looks at the key in his hand, and he could part ways with Ellie, but now Tess told him to save who he could save. Bill told him to protect others are what they're for. And he decides to open up a bit, the first time since the time stuck on his broken watch. Both Bill and Franks from the game and show are sides of the same coin. The bad ending. And the good ending.

It’s so funny that you said “the ice storm a couple of years ago” and didn’t realize that a lot of east coasters have generators, and I instantly thought “oh hey, fellow Oregonians!” It’s my first time stumbling across your channel but I loved the reaction. Cheers!

This Episode really got me in da Feels. I just imagine how it will hit Alicia. Lub you sweet lady.

Ron Swanson would dominate in the world of The Last of Us.

The song that was on the tape in the truck was the song frank tried to sing early on before Bill told him to stop.

This was the episode that that broke me. Two middle aged men growing old, finding purpose again in a world so divided and ill-advised on tearing itself apart and actually being able to die in peace as everything crumbles around them. A tsunami of tears left me by then.

the bill and frank part was so sweet and painful too see

I was so impressed with the character building that happened in such a short amount of screen time, that it could resonate so strongly with so many is just amazing work 👏

That was a fantastic episode. What a way to be hit in the feels. Here for more with you, ladies. Quick shout out to Alex and Darien, working their asses off to edit and release these three episodes.

i look forward to crying more lol

This show is phenomenal and I can’t wait for the rest of the series but this episode is fantastic and one of my favourites 🥹🥹

I enjoy the watch-a-long reactions of this keeps me in the loop, of series or hang out watch with friends.

*Wheels in a pallet of tissues*

I am, as I'm writing this, 10 miles west of Boston. I am in Milford MA and there is not only a forest there is a river. It's called the Charles River. Where ever you are in Massachusetts there is forest and then there are towns and then there is more forest. Where the Cumberland Farms is, isn't accurate however the rest is.

Thanks for this ladies, and the gents behind the scenes. I bawled when i first watched this episode. Oh and Bells you dont need them lashes, yours are lovely enough.

the best or worst part depending on how you look at it is that the same sex marriage legislation wasn't passed when the outbreak happened, and these two men were alive when the aids epidemic was blamed essentially on the homosexuals. So they never knew that they would ever get married let alone have a relationship or even get old after the world came apart.

goes and looks for my sweater vests

2:41 It’s a memorial cairn for Tess.

The stacked rocks are a cairn, a type of memorial. If you go back to skyrim, they are all over the place.

Uh oh. We gonna need Alex to run for more tissue boxes

Bill and Frank ten years They first met I saves it I protected him The married The aged And die Together is very very sad Pd annie weschirg RIP Forty five years the last of us tess 😔😥😢💔 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

One of my favorite episodes ever

Loved this episode so much Ive watched it 3 times and cried every time

"I was never afraid before you showed up." ❤

Bill was in the middle of the street to draw the gunfire away from the house and away from Frank, his safety was always first.

Wow what a great episode.

I never comment but this is my third time commenting in as many videos... do more please. Thank you. PS I am not crying, you are!

It took me three rewatches to realis3 that bill was drawing fire away from the house. As in being out in the open was the only e ay he could be positive frank would not catch a story bullet. If he shot from the house they would open fire on it. If he fired somewhere hidden ad from cover they might shoot the house just assuming that's where he was. He made himself the target on purpose. Rave bastard

I will look forward to see what you think of next Episode.

Kinda to add to the misery bill and frank never knew a world where they could get married or where it even was a possibility for them

I love this amazing video ever for everyone 😊

LOL 10 miles west from Boston doesn't look like this yeah it's because it was all films in Alberta Canada

Ik This episode was gonna leave them a mess

The part that got me really crying was “love me like I want you to” straight up bawling my eyes out 😭

This destroyed me like the opening sequence from Up.

Bill stood out in the open while shooting the raiders to draw them away from Frank. Bill is too smart to do that for any other reason. Frank was more import to him than himself.

Hi Girls hope your not to sad tonight.

Hey Bells and Alicia "kids don't give no fucks"😉

Alicia crying on the insides

ngl this is the only way i've been able to watch this episode because it's too much for me to handle, and even then i sobbed my way through this whole youtube video

Not Romeo and Juliet but Romeo and Romeo

Has any of you heard that the Voice Actress for Tess in Games has passed away?

The rocks are a grave for Tess

Hey ladies 👋. You should do group reactions to scary AF movies 😍😍😍😋

So, if I remember correctly the pandemic took place year before gay marriage became legal.

Bells, no bleeding becouse they no have the bloods they are just mushroom people by that time. I am still having wibbly wobbly Time-y Whim-y issues with the show but I will get over it.

Between the final episode of "Helsreach" and episode 3 & 5 of "The Last of Us" I'm a complete f'ing wreck. Look what you've done to us, Girls Play!

Lmao! These dames love the PP😅

Girls when you're going to react about fanfictasia episode 3??? You need to watch it.

Giggle. Giggle. Giggle.

I don't need to know multiple days beforehand when this is coming out

More crying lets go

t trwo bwelle la mof o chfeu reinebo

Yes it did happen in the game but they didn't throw it in our face and be all you must like this in my opinion this was the worst episode it was slow it was boring it did not progressed the story

3 episode - reflection of your perverted society

I think the rocks was a grave for Tess
