As a senior (in our late 60's) married (8 yrs) gay couple (33 yrs), we'd like say " Yay and thank you " to the writers and HBO for the representation of an older gay couple in this beautiful and poignant episode.🥲 And thanks for all the positive comments from allies. 😘🏳‍🌈

      @@HooverDyson - Unfortunately, the characters in Brokeback Mountain were never able to live a happy life together. It was a torturous bond, for the both of them, from the beginning to the end. It did a good job of depicting a tragedy, a tragedy that was based on the lovers being gay. This? This was a truly beautiful romance, having nothing to do with the characters being men. That's what makes it a stellar representation of a same sex relationship. Every human deserves to know this type of love and see themselves being depicted in this manner. As a straight cis-gender woman, I was proud to see this type of depiction, and in a sad post-apocalyptic show, nonetheless. “Remember, when you're lost in the darkness.. Look for the light," indeed!

I have my issues, and may be too much for anyone to deal with. I'm set in my ways and i do not deal with change very well, which is necessary for a relationship. Compromise is necessary in relationships and i am horrible at it. I am happy with my life and who i am. I know exactly what i like, and if i find someone, great, if not that's ok as well.

    Crazy that Joel and Tess were already together in 2010, so they were Bill and Frank's friends for over 13 years of that 20 year timespan. They were pill smugglers in the present day. They might have gotten into it to help get Frank's medication. At the end of the episode, Joel really has no one left in his life except Tommy, and, unexpectedly, Ellie. It's incredible subtext that somehow makes everything EVEN sadder.

They really just write every character so well, it feels like we really get to know what people they are even if they are only with us for one episode.

      the only thing keeping people like you from coming to that conclusion is your unrationalized hatred, and for some reason thinking it's not normal with no real argument to back it up, using religion as a shield to justify your hatred. and if we wanna bring rape into the discussion i can find hundreds of cases of catholic priests committing the act but little to none about gay people :)

    The Bill and Frank storyline did not happen in the game, so this ep was just as much of a surprise for us gamers but a very beautiful expansion of this universe. The game is so much sadder for Bill as him and Frank had a fallout and as Bill's helping Joel and Ellie look for a truck they found Frank's dead body. Bill was a much sadder, grumpier and distant person in the game with no happy ending like in the show.

    I was ok until he said, “I’m satisfied.”
    That’s what we all want. You’re never really stoked to die, unless you are suffering horrible pain and then you’re just excited for the pain to end, not life.
    But we CAN have a moment of thinking, “Alright. That was good. I had enough and I’m satisfied with what I had.”
    There’s just such a beautifully complete feeling o that word. Not “grateful,” or “happy,” but “satisfied.” I’d take more if it was on offer, but I can accept that what I had was enough.
    I love love love that they took the time to show us humans winning a satisfying life in the middle of all this. That’s what the show is really about: humanity. I think it’s pretty obvious that’s what Joel’s journey is going to be. He was very human with Sarah, he lost that when she died to the point that he was able to toss a dead kid on the pyre without flinching, and now he’s got Ellie to look after and can stop just being a vessel surviving. He can reclaim his humanity.
    This episode succinctly showed that whole journey in one episode.
    Love it.
    Also, it does this middle aged hag’s heart so much good to see young LGBTQ people joking about the characters being gay and then getting to see that they actually ARE. I was your age in the 90s and 00s. My friends had Queer as Folk and Will and Grace for mainstream representation. And some overwrought films like Philadelphia or Brokeback Mountain. But the whole gimmick of those types of shows was “This is about them being gay!!!” (And that’s nothing against the shows; they paved the way and did what they could do at the time.)
    This episode wasn’t about gay people; it was about people.
    And on top of all that, it was gorgeously done.

    As sad as it is, this is not a tragedy, it's a happy story.
    I'm so glad they expanded on Bill and Frank like this; the game only hinted that they were a couple, but this was beautiful.

    I love that this episode subverts expectations.
    As lgbtq we have been “reading between the lines”, shipping, and fan fictioning queerness to shoehorn representation for DECADES AND DECADES of media.
    You both do that through the entire commentary up to the kiss.
    To see characters on screen actually do the thing they NEVER DO in was more then my heart could take.
    This also wasn’t a “kill your gays” - they died of old age after a full life together on their own terms in the zombie apocalypse.
    They lived better and more human then anyone on the entire planet for 2 decades.
    The decision not to show their physical end was as important as any other choice made here.
    The fact that they used “America’s cartoon man of masculinity” in a dude bro franchise to middle finger the most toxic fans is *chefs kiss*

Bill didnt own the whole town, just some areas of town and protect it with booby traps. Bill helped us to search for battery for a car in abandoned school and there boss fight which something that worse than clicker. turn out someone else stole the car battery, they escaped to nearest house and found Frank dead body hanged. turn out he got infected and hang himself and left farewell letter to Bill. in that hpuse they also found a working car and battery that stolen from the school. Joel and Bill pushed the car while Eliie in on driver seat trying to starting it while they were being chased by infecteds. They succeed and left Bill for good.

    i was thinking of you both while watching this. this episode is def my favorite so far, it will be very hard to beat it. such a romantic story. i am so happy they deviated from the game so much for this. makes me wonder how many more things they will change and how much more emotional this show will get. the game already had me sobbing but this episode alone really broke me.

    😂😂😂 The gasping cracked me up during the piano scene. But believe me, I fully understand. I was totally like, "You better get it, Frank!" LOL. On the flip side though, I'm not one of the game players, but I had heard how Bill was such an epic character in the game. So based on that, this was so far from what I thought we were getting this episode. I was kind of in awe at first from the juxtaposition from the previous two episodes, but I completely got hooked on them. I thought we'd have more time with them so I was really sad when they flashed 10 years forward. I had completely forgotten about how long it had been from the start of the epidemic to now. This episode was a beautiful character piece. ❤️😭

    Bill might have had the purpose of resupplying Joel and Elli in the game (truck, weapons…), but he was arguably even more important for Joel‘s character development:
    THE GAME - Bill is grumpy, bitter prepper hermit, who hates the world and everybody, and who is unwilling to open up, which has cost him his life partner Frank. He functions as WARNING EXAMPLE for Joel of what he would become, if he‘d follow the same path of „survival alone is enough“. Meeting Bill is the point from which Joel starts opening up to Elli.
    THE SHOW - Bill is a grumpy, bitter prepper hermit, who hates the world and everybody, but who manages to open up and connect, thanks to his life partner Frank. He functions as a GUIDING EXAMPLE for Joel of what he should become, if he‘d follow his path of „survival is fine, but you also need to live with/for someone“. Meeting Bill is the point from which Joel starts opening up to Elli.
    Same basic side characters - different story elements and character choices - same eventual influence on the main characters - BRILLIANT!!!

    Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett absolutely slayed it. While I haven't seen Murray Bartlett it anything else, I can say with confidence that this is Nick Offerman at his absolute best.
    This episode alone deserves ALL the Emmys.

    Yes, it's such a touching episode and a brilliant representation of a normal gay relationship without all the typical stereotypes.
    Beautiful story and a real emotional roller coaster ride. One of the best TV episode I have ever seen in recent years.
    The comment about Simon Cowell judging music/singing and fun-gay (instead of fun-gi) are too funny!

    It's been a while since I cried this hard over a television show. I also love that we got an origin story for the radio code (80s means trouble, 70s means...). Ellie was kind of making fun of it in the first episode but it means so much more now.

    A beautiful theme of this series is the title, the last of US. The game is full of notes scattered throughout the world left by people, giving you glimpses into their lives. I love that this show is taking this and expanding it, truly showing us other people's lives and not just focusing on the main cast. At the very least, it'll make season 2 less jarring.

    The outbreak happened in Ocotillo 2003 so they never knew an America with same sex marriage :( Massachusetts, the first state to do so, wouldn’t have the court case legalizing it until November 2003.

    This episode broke me. I was NOT ready and I saw it right when it dropped. And in case you haven't been told, in the game Bill and Frank are gay, but you never see Frank because he leaves Bill and I believe kills himself elsewhere. When you meet Bill he's alive and alone and he helps Joe and Ellie before finding out the fate of Frank.
    This is a much better way of dealing with those characters. Incredibly touching.

    They made a few changes from the Game. If I remember right Frank was already Dead by time Joel and Ellie showed up but Bill owed Joel a favor and he took his truck at the end of that arc… I loved the fact they gave us the whole Backstory of Bill & Frank while at the same time skipped the Game parts of Joel and Ellie making they’re way to them!

    My brother looks so much like Pedro Pascal that all this TLoU content has got me missing him something awful. So I texted him about it the other day, and he said that it's not the first time he's been told that. Apparently he had a girlfriend once that dated him solely because he reminded her so much of Oberyn Martell 🤣
