Let's recap The Last of Us episode one
When I was pregnant with my daughter, I did not realise it for a while. My dog, however, knew straight away. He became protective of me, constantly under my feet or curling up across my lap as soon as I sat down. He would not leave my side, and I did not understand why.
Soon enough, it all became clear. I was having a baby. Needless to say, I was surprised. But my dog was not. He knew. He had always known. Animals have a sense for these things. Which is why, when a dog started to become uneasy around a seemingly harmless lady in HBO’s The Last of Us, I knew straight away something was amiss.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS ARTICLE CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR BOTH THE SHOW AND THE GAME IT IS BASED ON.
The TV adaptation of The Last of Us begins with a step back from Naughty Dog’s 2013 game release. Rather than dropping us off in Texas with the Miller family, it takes us instead to a talk show from the late 1960s. Here, two epidemiologists are taking part in an almost all-too-relatable discussion on viral and biological pandemics.
