But I do kind of wonder whether it will clarify their relationship and what it will turn out to be in this moment.

So the other big change, and we talked about this last week when it became clear that this was where it was heading, Here we see it just laid out explicitly. Abby explains to Joel and by extension, the audience, why she's killing him in great detail, in contrast to the game where we don't know.

We don't really know anything about Abby and why she's after Joel and why she is doing this when it happens. And we don't find out until midway through the game when the perspective shifts and we play through things from Abby's view. And that changes this dramatically. Is it for better? Is it for worse? We can debate that.

I think it's actually an interesting debate to have, but it does make this scene play out quite differently because in the game, Abby asks Joel to guess why she's doing this. And Joel just cuts off the speech that she's practiced. And we get the same sort of line here, the stupid old man, you don't get to rush this line. But she does rush it in the game much more so than here.

And she doesn't just lay out exactly the record of Joel that has prompted her to take revenge here. And there remains some uncertainty, even if you suspect as a player at that point, OK, this must have something to do with the hospital. Even Ellie is not sure of that. And we know that she knows what happened at the hospital. But even she says, as she sets off with Dina, that

There are any number of people who might have had a reason to attack Joel and Tommy. They have decades of history of pissing people off and crossing people who might have come back to get them.

I mean, if you could put yourself in the shoes of someone who's seeing this for the first time and then also analyze it from the perspective of a player, that's Do you like the way that this plays out where Abby is, you know, almost like the classic kind of villain has the protagonist tied up and explains their whole plan and their whole rationale?
