This week, Andy, Dwayne & Tosin discuss the thrilling and contentious final episode of this season of The Last of Us, the motivation for including Anna's prologue; Joel's murderous rampage; whether Ellie would have given consent to surgery; and Joel's final deception... and whether Ellie believed him or not.

We also discuss our consensus on the entire season, what we're looking forward to next season, and what the showrunners might have in store for us in Part II.

In our discussion of Please Hold to My Hand, Andrew, Dwayne, & Tosin discuss why Joel killed a raider who had begged for mercy; how Kathleen's leadership is flawed and is bringing concern to her lieutenant, Perry; how the world had changed in the twenty years since the outbreak, and how this impacts Ellie's perception of the world; and what's holding Joel back from caring about anything... and if that wall is cracking with Ellie's presence.
