The Last of Us (HBO Max)

[Bolares]

As the showrunners said in the behind the scenes segment, this is classic post-revolutionary behavior.

behind the scenes sgment? where do I find those?

I assume she has had major trauma she's responding to. Her lieutenant felt very uncomfortable with what she was saying, but apparently, we are seeing the tail end of something awful happening in KC. (I did not play the game and only know the broadest strokes of their stories.)

This is not in the games, but I got that part about the trauma too. Probably her brother was a big shot in the revolutionary group, and possibly Henry gave up his location to FEDRA, what resulted in his death. There is also a chance Henry was framed for this.

They're on YouTube, but they're after the credits on HBO and HBO Max.

On HBO Max, back out of the pop-ups trying to send you to another show and you can scan forward through the credits to get the coming attractions, followed by the behind the scenes featurette each week.

What has the incels so up in arms? Did Ellie turn them down too?

I don't see Melanie Lynskey as a warlord. Maybe she'll prove me wrong. It does seem odd she's choosing to ignore the heaving, undulating floor. The person, whom I have no clue who he is, is really that important? And I'll hazard a guess that the boy at the end is Sam.

The boy's make-up matches the child's art of a superhero. So those are the two people Melanie's looking for -- a kid and a young man who's either the boy's father or brother.

Would it be warlord or warlady? Did she have to buy a square foot of land in Scotland to become one?

Did she have to buy a square foot of land in Scotland to become one?

All of this started when she found out that spending $30 to name a star back in 2003 was actually a scam.

Animal Farm for a literary example.

Soviet Union (Stalin era) for a contemporary one.

France is the trope originator, but honestly, it happens more often than not.
