The relationship between Ellie and Joel was a key component of the first season of The Last of Us, and it’s likely that this will continue to be a central focus in the season finale as well.  Moreover, as they continue to traverse the dangers of the post-apocalyptic world together, their bond is likely to grow stronger than ever before, to rely on each other for support and survival. However, there may also be emotional moments of tension and conflict in the finale, as clear from the cult-centric event of the previous episode.

2. Clickers and Raiders

The world of the series was bleak and dark, and it’s likely that this will continue to be the case in the last instalment. The infected will continue to pose a constant threat, with new types of clickers possibly being introduced. Additionally, other human survivors may also be a danger to Ellie and Joel, as they compete for scarce resources and struggle to survive in a world filled with raiders.

3. New Characters

The season finale may include the introduction of new characters who challenge the moral limits of Ellie and Joel (like David), forcing them to deal with difficult questions about what it means to be a survivor in a world that has no ethics. These new characters may also provide opportunities for the story to explore different perspectives of the original source material.

Throughout the series, we were hinted about the origins of the infection and the government’s response to it but didn’t delve into the complete details of its spread. It’s possible that the finale will explore this more fully, providing more context for the events of the infection and adding new layers of backstory. This may include exploring the ways in which the government responded to the outbreak and the role of science and technology in the creation of the infected.

5. Joel Coming to Terms With his Past

In the earlier episodes of the series, Joel’s actions were driven by a sense of loss and trauma, as well as the protective instinct for Ellie. However, his choices also led to some serious repercussions for him as well as others. In the finale, it’s possible that Joel will be forced to confront the fallout from his decisions and come to terms with his past.
