Yeah, we will return to that when we look forward because, yes, I am also wondering where Tommy will go, if anywhere, next. So one thing that you pointed out to me, the way that they're sort of reshaping Abby's crew here, sort of softening them in some sense, but also kind of combining the actual character roster here.

Do you want to just lay out how exactly they have changed both the portrayal of these characters

Yeah. And they go about this much more humanely when it comes to the supporting characters, everyone other than Joel, because Mel just anesthetizes Dina, just puts her to sleep. And this is partly because it's Dina, not Tommy. But in the game, Nora just knocks out Tommy by pistol whipping him repeatedly. Now, maybe it's a different proposition to show

Dina getting pistol whipped than Tommy in the game. Plus, I think all of this is a little bit different in live action than in the game. You know, even if Naughty Dog's animations and graphics are great, it's still a little bit different to have actual flesh and blood. characters on the screen here.

And, you know, it's harder to stomach them getting beaten to a pulp than it is when they are just a collection of pixels and polygons, no matter how lifelike. And so because Mel is really taking care to assure Joel that, no, Dina is going to be OK, I promise. And they're all just kind of worried about how Abby is losing it here.

And in a sense, I found that almost tough to swallow because we've been taught that fireflies, you know, like they do a lot of heinous stuff, even if it's for the right reasons or noble goals, like they're doing bad stuff. Even, you know, Tommy and Eugene were hearing about the things that they've done in the past. And so you're thinking about This crew now, granted, they're younger.

Maybe they weren't fireflies that long. Maybe they didn't have an opportunity to be as brutal. But would they be quite so squeamish about this? Does that say something about how they've changed since they were with the fireflies? I guess the good thing about it is that it does really make the contrast with Abby stronger.
