"The Last of Us " returns with a series of flashback vignettes.

The episode focuses on Joel and Ellie's happier days together.

It's this season 's version of "Long, Long Time," a standalone following two characters' relationship over several years .

"The Price" skips ahead to Ellie 's 19th birthday.

"The Price" revisits the New Year's dance from the season premiere.

The short-term catharsis seems to run counter to the story's long-term goals.

The episode is built to underline that. In these last moments, The Last of Us 's writers repeat an error from the source material.
