How Did Ellie Know What Joel Did in The Last of Us Season 2?

The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 5, “Feel Her Love,” has aired on HBO and is now available for streaming on MAX. Viewers who have watched the episode are wondering how Bella Ramsey’s Ellie is aware of what Pedro Pascal’s Joel did for her in the Season 1 finale. Earlier in the season, Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby brutally murders Joel for killing her father, along with other Firefly operatives, to save Ellie in Salt Lake City, Utah. This prompts Ellie to seek revenge, accompanied by Isabela Merced’s Dina. In this episode, Ellie encounters Tati Gabrielle’s Nora, a member of Abby’s group.

Here is what you need to know about how Ellie knew what Joel did in The Last of Us Season 1 finale.

How did Ellie know what Joel did to save her in The Last of Us?

In Season 2 Episode 5 of The Last of Us, Ellie separates from other members of her group and returns to Lakehill. There, she comes face to face with Nora. The latter initially manages to escape. However, as the building, which was previously a medical facility, is overrun by spores, Nora gets infected. Ellie, whose immunity to the fungi was established early in the series, begins interrogating the other woman. Nora tries to tell Ellie about what Joel did to Abby’s father. Ellie first says that she doesn’t care, before stating that she knows.

One probability here is that Ellie does know exactly what Joel did in the Season 1 finale. The second season takes place five years after the first one. Joel could have told Ellie the truth about what happened in Salt Lake City during that intermediate period. Perhaps that’s why their relationship was so strained at the start of Season 2.

Alternatively, Ellie could have figured it out by herself or found out about it from someone else. It’s also possible that Ellie is bluffing in that scene with Nora. She could be lying about knowing what Joel did to maintain control of the situation. Whatever the answer, we are likely to get more information about it in the coming episodes as Ellie continues her pursuit of revenge.
