While hunting, Ellie comes across David (Scott Shepherd) and James (Troy Baker).
She agrees to trade deer for penicillin.
David reveals because Joel killed Alec (raider at the end of Kin), he seeks justice.
At dawn, David captures Ellie and his men continue pursuit for vengeance.
Joel tortures an intruder to learn of Ellie's location and clobbers another with an iron bar.
David's cannibalistic secret is spilled and after Ellie breaks one of his fingers, baby girl is next on menu.
She kills James and hacks David to death with a meat cleaver.
After the event, Joel shows up and they leave together.
Violent heart
Aside from some minor differences, we watch a collection of cut scenes smashed together.
While I applaud authenticity, it's perhaps done too well.
Also, narrative deserved two episodes.
Here's fun, why not spice things up by including the Infected?
It's so fucking frustrating.
Shepherd's performance was particularly creepy and we finally see the real Joel in action.
The only major change to dialogue is David's reaction to finger break:
"You little cunt."
As opposed to: "You stupid little girl."
Eight down, one to go.
