[Ellie and Jesse are walking through the town on their way to their patrol, and Ellie notices all the preparations going on]
What's everyone doing?
Council put the entire town on alert. Last night, Kylie and Max found a pile of dead infected near Seven Cabins. Frozen stiff.
Okay?
They didn't think anything of it, until 30 live ones broke through from underneath the corpses. They're using their own dead like insulation.
Thirty? Fuck. They okay?
Yeah. Sprinted back on their horses. Sent a squad out to clear the infected, but now we're thinking we don't know how many are underneath the snow. Could be 30 more. Could be a thousand more.
A thousand? Get the fuck outta here.
[chuckling] Ah yes, certainty masquerading as knowledge. It's very Ellie of you.
Suck my dick.
Also, somebody told the council a ghost story about the world's smartest infected, and now everybody's spooked out of their minds.
[irritated] It wasn't a ghost story. You know, no offence man, I'm gonna do my patrol with Joel.
Umm... yes, offence, 'cuz that's the one person you've been avoiding like the plague.
Well, we're better now, okay?
As of when? Cuz last night-
[shouting] Yeah, I know what happened last night. Can you shut the fu... [catches herself and calms down] My shit with Joel is complicated. I know that. From the outside, it probably looks really bad. It has been really bad. But I'm still me, and he's still Joel, and we... And nothing's ever gonna change that, ever. So you can all stop talking about us, worrying about us, and thinking about us, alright?
So you two hashed it out? [Ellie gives him a look that says "what did I just say?"] Uh... alright.
