Heads up Sun readers, if you haven’t already watched the series finale yet, there is spoilers ahead.
The father and daughter duo successfully made it to Firefly facility.
But it wasn’t long before they were both captured by fighters and separated from each other.
Firefly leader Marlene told Joel that they were going to attempt a procedure to use Ellie’s immunity to Cordyceps as a way to create a cure.
However, in doing so it would result in her being killed.
Clearly not going to accept the faith, Joel rampaged through the hospital killing everyone in his way in order to get to Ellie.
He found his youngest daughter just in the nick of time as she lay unconscious surrounded by a full medical team.
After shooting dead the doctor involved, Joel then escapes with Ellie to the carpark, where he’s confronted by Marlene.
As she tries to convince him to hand Ellie over, Joel shoots Marlene in the stomach before killing her with a blow to the head.
The episode ended as Ellie awoke in the car as her father lied to her about the developments.
He told her how she wasn’t the only one that carried immunity from Cordyceps and there dozens of others back at Firefly.
He explained to Ellie how she was still wearing her hospital clothes as the base came under attack and they had to flee.

A second said: “All the affective overtones that Joel and Ellie finally say to each other in this episode… no it’s cool… really cool… I’m not crying at all.. at all.”
“Only a few minutes in and I’m already crying,” said a third viewer.
While a fourth commented: “That last look between them… f***. and i’m crying again but it’s okay because ellie’s got my back with her puns!”
