⚠ Attention: This content contains major spoilers for the finale of The Last of Us Season 2 and the video game The Last of Us Part II! Proceed with caution if you wish to avoid plot revelations.

The TV series, HBO’s “The Last of Us,” concluded with a jaw-dropping cliffhanger that left many viewers questioning whether Abby’s initial scene resembled a dream. Kaitlyn Dever has been added to the cast for season 2, but her character Abby has only appeared in significant scenes so far, including the game-altering episode 2 where she killed Joel. In the final episode of season 2, Abby continues her violent streak by arriving at a theater, wounding Tommy, and killing Jesse. Given that Joel died earlier in the series, these last events might seem too unbelievable to be real.

The TV show “The Last of Us” is inspired by the controversial 2020 video game “The Last of Us Part II.” Some people thought its unconventional storytelling was brilliant, while others were taken aback by its dark plot. HBO, known for breaking television conventions with series like “The Sopranos” and “Game of Thrones,” is airing this show. The ending of season 2 mirrors the game’s narrative style, making a daring choice.

Abby Wasn’t Dreaming In The Last Of Us Season 2’s Ending

Everything We Saw Really Happened

To start off, it’s essential to clarify that the events depicted in the final moments of The Last of Us season 2 were not a dream. Ellie, Tommy, and Jesse exit the theater following Ellie’s killing of Owen and Mel, with Abby pursuing them for revenge over her friends’ deaths. Initially believing Tommy was responsible, Ellie admits to the crime. Before Abby could shoot again, the screen fades to black, and we find Abby awakening on a couch with a book nearby.

In the narrative, Abby engages in conversation with Manny, one of the individuals present during Joel’s demise. Later, she steps out of her private space to converse with Isaac. Earlier in this episode, we observed Isaac hunting for Abby before he embarked on a dramatic showdown aboard a ship. The Washington Liberation Front and the Seraphites were first introduced in Season 2, but there’s an abundance of ongoing events that may leave viewers who haven’t played the game feeling bewildered.

Where Abby Is In The Last Of Us Season 2’s Final Scene

Abby Is In The Washington Liberation Front’s HQ

In her room, Abby is woken up by Manny and instructed to meet Isaac. Stepping outside, she finds herself in a stadium that has been changed into a military base, complete with tents, vehicles, and crowds of people. This is SoundView Stadium, modeled after the actual Lumen Field in Seattle, where the Seahawks NFL team plays. In ‘The Last of Us’, this stadium serves as the main headquarters for the W.L.F., offering our first look at the power and reach of this paramilitary group.

What “Day One” Means For Abby’s Story In The Last Of Us Season 3

Season 3 Will Return To Day One From Abby’s Perspective

In the fourth episode of The Last of Us season 2, we focused on Ellie’s first day in Seattle. For the upcoming season 3, we’ll be revisiting that same day, but this time from Abby’s viewpoint. This narrative approach mirrors the video game, which initially shows Ellie’s perspective for the first three days before shifting to Abby. Consequently, the last three episodes have covered many of the key story points as in the game, with season 2 concluding on a cliffhanger similar to the midpoint of The Last of Us Part II.

As a die-hard fan of “The Last of Us”, I can understand if you were left scratching your head about where Abby and her gang disappeared to during season 2, after they were introduced as key characters right off the bat in episode one. Well, The amazing Catherine O’Hara has confirmed that season 3 will be all about Abby, but don’t worry, Ellie and her friends won’t completely vanish from our screens. We’ll get to delve deeper into Abby’s storyline with her crew, but rest assured, “The Last of Us” just wouldn’t feel the same without our beloved heroes from Jackson around!
