As Season 2 begins, we return to Jackson with Ellie and Joel, now living with the consequences of what happened in Salt Lake City. In this premiere episode of Look for the Light, we break down every scene from the Season 2 opener — a quiet but emotionally charged return to the world of The Last of Us.

We cover Ellie’s growing distance from Joel, the tensions brewing within Jackson, and the ominous introduction of a new type of infected. Plus, we dig into all the new characters, major relationship dynamics, and the subtle ways the show deepens our understanding of these beloved characters.
