They didn't even know if it was gonna work.

Nikkas got mushrooms coming out of their head. They not becoming human again, my boy :heh:

They could've spent their time making bio weapons that targeted zombies.

Could've made bomb shelters, took everybody in, and nuked the world.

Could've tried to synthesize Ellie's blood instead but, nah let's kill the 14 year old girl :heh:

Worth the educated risk. She was unique and wanted to sacrifice herself for a potential cure. Joel's selfish ass was the one who made the decision :yeshrug:

Lets be real. ELLY WAS LITERALLY WILLING TO DIE FOR A CURE, SHE SAID IT HERSELF


so if your in some armageddon situation and you fortunate enough to have a dad. You got a dad that can save the would possibly with his WILLING test subject. Then some dude blows your unarmed dads brains out. U aint gunna feel a certain way?

They never asked Ellie though. They kidnapped her, so that shows they didn't GAF if Ellie consented or not.

If I'm Abby, I'd probably want to kill Joel too but, I'm not gonna pretend like I'm morally superior. I'd be killing Joel solely because I'm emotionally attached and upset that he killed my father. Not because my father was right for what he did. Deep down, I would feel a little disgusted that my dad wanted to kill a little girl.

No anything tbh :dead:

Abby being a white Ann Wolfe made her deeboing people around believable. Shorty look like she aint stepped in a gym ever

They said on the podcast that the actress who they cast as Abby was in the running to play Ellie had they pursued the movie option a couple of years after the first game dropped. Since she aged out of playing Ellie in the show, they brought her back to audition for Abby.

Should've let her goofy ass get eaten alive :unimpressed:

Your dad wasn't a saint bish. He was trying to crack open a teenage girl's head. FOH.

:salute:

unfortunately, the fanboys on here , just don’t get it
As I said numerous times in the first season thread, Joel did not kill Abby‘s father…. Abby‘s father killed himself

Anyone else find it weird not just in the show but the game too.... one minute abbys crew is mesmerized by the size of joels town, then as soon as they find a joel theyre like "we got our guy"


Joel may not be a super popular name, but its popular enough where ther may be 3-4+ Joels in that town
Well she literally described his unique physical features, so she knew who it was. You didn’t catch that?

its funny…all the complaints about abby being buff in the game, and now we see in the show how much better it would be if she was

ND got it all right the first time around.

She’s military. They don’t rank you based on size.

Im just saying steroided out abby was more convincing from a physical standpoint :manny:

She nailed the character acting wise tho. Whoever directed that first ep needs to be put on them papers cuz the diogue was much better in this one
