The heart of all things The Last of Us , whether it’s the games or the first season of the HBO adaptation, is the relationship between Joel and Ellie.

It's a shock that they only share a few minutes of screen time together in the season two premiere “Future Days” Catherine O’Hara plays Joel 's therapist Gail .

Episode one was mostly an exposition episode without a ton of action.

The most exciting bit was seeing a Stalker in action for the first time in the show.

Things are clearly going to ratchet up next week with a major Infected threat as well.

I’m giving this episode a 6 of 10 — there wasn’t all that much action, but the stalker reveal was intense enough to up this episode’s rating.
