Transcript[]

Tommy: Guys said I might find you here. Figured I'd save you the trouble. I should've said what I said. I don't even believe it. I know you're happy for me, it's just… it's complicated for you. I'm sorry. So you gonna let me off the hook, or what?

Joel: This ride to the university, is it a suicide mission?

Tommy: No. It's dangerous, but it's nothing you can't handle. Just prepare and do what you do.

Joel: You've had people go that way and come back?

Tommy: All of 'em. What is this?

Joel: She's immune.

Tommy: What?

Joel: Ellie. She got infected, but she didn't get sick. Tommy. Tommy. I saw her get bit myself. That was months ago, months. She's immune.

Tommy: From the beginning.

Joel: It was Marlene. She hired us to smuggle her to some Fireflies. It went bad. Tess got bit. She made me swear to take the kid. It was her dying wish, what the hell was I supposed to do? We made it as far as KC, and then… You know, she saved my life there, from another kid. Five years ago, I would've destroyed him. But she had to shoot him to save me—fourteen years old… Because I was too slow and too fuckin' deaf to hear him coming. And I saw… I saw a man kill his own brother to save her, while I just watched. And today, I thought that dog was gonna tear her apart because it smelled something on her. And all I did was stand there, I—I couldn't move, I couldn't think of anything to say, I was just… I was so afraid! You think I can still handle things, but I'm not who I was. I'm weak. Lately, there are these moments where the fear comes up outta nowhere, and my heart feels like it's stopped. And I have dreams, every night…

Tommy: What kinda dreams?

Joel: I don't know. I can't remember. I just know that when I wake up… I've lost something! I'm failing in my sleep! It's all I do! It's all I've ever done, is fail her, again and again and again…

Tommy: You want me to take her?

Joel: I'm just gonna get her killed, I know it. I know it… I have to leave her.

Tommy: Joel—

Joel: I mean, it's why you took off on me, right? To make up for things we did? Well, here's your chance to bring your kid into a better world. You're younger than me, you're still strong, you said it yourself, you'll come back. You have to take her. And you can't tell anyone. Not even Maria. Tommy, you're the only one I trust; if anyone else sees those bites on her, what's under her skin, they'll shoot her! It's the last thing I'll ever ask of you. I swear…

Tommy: I'll take her out at dawn.
