In a thrilling turn last weekend, The Last of Us Season 2 found its place on the 2025 TV schedule, and it certainly did not fall short. The show brought back Bella Ramsey’s Joel and Pedro Pascal’s Ellie, while also welcoming fresh faces into the fold, such as Catherine O’Hara’s Gail, a character original to the series who married Eugene – a character already established in the games but deceased by the episode’s events. As the season progresses, we’ll delve deeper into Gail’s storyline, and with O’Hara dropping hints, I can’t help but feel the urge to plunder Gail’s supplies!

In simpler terms, Gail resides in a survivor community situated in Jackson, Wyoming where she practices psychotherapy. Among her patients is Joel, who remunerates her with marijuana. An emotional exchange between them occurs in the first episode, as Gail reprimands Joel for murdering Eugene, a man who cultivated cannabis for his spouse. During this intense conversation, Gail transgresses her professional ethics and criticizes Joel. This confrontation suggests that the scenario unfolding will be heart-wrenchingly tragic. Catherine O’Hara has remained tight-lipped about future events when speaking to Entertainment Weekly, but her comments have given me goosebumps.

I’ve never had to cry so much for so many takes. It was killer.

I’m quite surprised to learn that the actress rarely cries as much as she does in multiple takes. With The Last of Us known for its intense scenes, I can’t imagine how it will get any easier for me to watch. Now, I don’t partake in cannabis use nor would I recommend it here. However, after hearing Schitt’s Creek star’s experience, I can’t help but wonder if a little relaxation might help us all cope with what we’re about to witness.

More on The Last of Us

Initially, it was almost Kaitlyn Dever who portrayed the character of Ellie in “The Last of Us” movie, a fact that left me amazed at how much she knew about the storyline years before appearing on the series.

In the premiere of The Last of Us Season 2, a plot twist involving a character named Eugene who was only mentioned and shown in photos in the game, The Last of Us Part II, could be both heartbreaking and clever on the part of the producers. By introducing a new character named Gail, they’re expanding upon Eugene’s story and adding depth to it in an intriguing way, much like how characters Bill and Frank’s stories were transformed from Season 1. There’s not much information about the upcoming episode yet, but we do know that Joe Pantoliano, a seasoned actor, is playing Eugene, and trailer footage hints at Joel aiming a gun at him from behind.

Beyond just Joel and Gail’s tense interaction, the premiere of the second season offers many other intriguing elements. For instance, there are subtle references to “Part II” like the heartfelt dance between Ellie and her friend Gina that ends in a passionate kiss. Another memorable scene is Ellie’s encounter with the cleverly infected girl, or Stalker. On a more somber note, Joel and Ellie’s bond has become strained, making it difficult to watch their conflict as surrogate father and daughter.

During Joel’s conversation with Gail, the concern he shows towards Ellie becomes a significant issue, as Gail is already aware that he’s keeping secrets. This secret involves Joel saving Ellie from death and interrupting attempts to create a cure for the fungal disease. The tension in this situation keeps me both thrilled and anxious about what will happen next – especially with Eugene’s episode coming up. I can’t help but wonder if it will be heartbreaking enough for viewers to consider smoking marijuana as a means of coping.
