This week on The Commentary Booth, hosts Jamie Apps and Corrina Mabey conclude their weekly breakdown of HBO’s The Last of Us Season 2 to dissect Episode 7: Convergence. As Ellie’s path of vengeance barrels toward its climactic conclusion, the episode fast-tracks major narrative beats, leaving our hosts to unpack what worked, what didn’t, and what’s to come.

Listen in as we debate whether the finale stuck the landing, and analyse Abby’s shocking return in the final moments. Was the season too short? Will casual fans return after that ending? And what does the WLF’s massive stadium base mean for Season 3?

Highlights Breakdown:

- Ellie’s Revenge Quest: Does her brutal showdown with Owen and Mel hit as hard as the game?

- The WLF’s War Plans: A closer look at the Seraphite conflict and what it means for Season 3

- Pacing Problems: Why did this finale feel so rushed, and could two more episodes have saved it?

- That Controversial Ending: Abby’s return, the stadium reveal, and why fans are split

- Season 2 Verdict: Does it hold up to the first season, or does revenge fall flat?  

Packed with game comparisons, behind-the-scenes insights, and unfiltered opinions, this is the ultimate recap for The Last of Us fans.
