Seattle Day 2 – Ellie
Last of Us 2 Story Ending and Summary
On their second day in Seattle, Ellie sets off on her own while Dina hangs back at the theater to rest. After studying the city map and intercepting some radio calls, Dina tells Ellie that Nora is likely holed up at the hospital, and she becomes Ellie’s next target.
Ellie heads off to Hillcrest on her way to the hospital, and she sees black smoke in the horizon. Ellie assumes that must be Tommy’s handiwork and heads in that direction in search of him. As she gets closer to her target, she runs into more Wolves and eventually she runs into Jesse, who also left Jackson to find her, Dina, and Tommy to help them and bring them home.
Caught up in a firefight with the Wolves, Jesse and Ellie hijack a truck to escape back to the movie theater, where Dina patches him up. Ellie heads back out into the city to continue her journey to the hospital.
When she finally reaches the hospital, she tracks down Nora and tries to get info on Abby’s location. Nora refuses to talk; instead she taunts Ellie about Joel’s death and runs off. Eventually, Ellie manages to corner Nora in the basement of the hospital where it’s covered in spores, and she tortures Nora until she finally tells Ellie where Abby is.
Back at the theater, Ellie is shaken up by what she had to do to Nora to get that information and Dina comforts her.
We get another flashback to two years ago, when Ellie rides off to St. Mary’s Hospital in Salt Lake City. She finds a recorder detailing the aftermath of the slaughter, and she finds out that she was the only one immune in that hospital and that Joel had lied to her.
When Joel catches up to her in Salt Lake City, she forces him to tell her the truth. She learns that Joel had basically stopped the Fireflies from killing her to make the cure, and Ellie agrees to go back to Jackson with him but states that both of them are done.
