People who criticize the fact that the bandits didn't immediately rush Joel and Ellie, despite the fact that all of their behaviors indicate that they lack actual combat experience outside ambushing people caught lacking, gotta realize that it's easier to talk about running towards gunfire and ACTUALLY have to gall to do it. Joel not only survived for 20 years in the apocalypse, he himself was an actual bandit and experienced smuggler who ventured outside the city and was still breathing. These kids barely got their hands on guns after a coup against a FEDRA set up. No way would they have the gut to just rush a guy with a gun, even when they have him surrounded, so they just have to play it safe and wait for others to hear the shots. 2 laid down suppressive fire, 1 circled around to ambush him. Keep in mind, by the time Joel got the first guy, he'd already fired 5 shots, which is the standard hunting rifle capacity. Had the kid not hesitated to check up on his friend, Joel wouldn't have the time to reload. The last kid got lucky since he jumped Joel when his rifle is malfunctioning.

Bullets are hard to come by and since a lot of the buildings are dilapidated, a lot of the bullets you come across could be rusted or not function anymore. You can always make bullets, reusing old casings, but after a few times the casings become unusable, so there is a limited amount of ammunition.
People will say anything when they are scared. Someone like Joel has likely heard what this kid has said 1000 times by 1000 people. Roles reversed the kid likely wouldnt show mercy eirher.
Joel didn't want her to be a killer. He was garbage at showing it , but he hated what he was, hated he was a monster, and was trying to save her soul, rather then just her life.
It’s not really meant to be cool, it’s meant to be suspenseful and filled with stakes, because the game was, well, a game, so it was mainly surrounded around action. The show is more about the stakes and drama.
It’s over we’re not fighting anymore , it’s sad how desperate the kid is but it’s kinda funny to me just because like they literally just tried to brutally murder them and he’s just like “time out time out”
With guns, you shoot people without having to look them in the eye. Most soldiers in modern conflicts, for example, just fire into a hostile zone. They don't have to execute people.
Who knows. Its not relevant. They could be angels that thought they where killing someone who was evil and had never done anything bad, they still would have died. Its survival of the fittest, not the morally superior.
Ellie's character development is insane. In TLOU part 2 she would have most likely stabbed him, cleaned the knife with his clothes and said over his corpse something along the lines of "what a little bitch" or "huh, this IS a nice knife, thank you"
Why I like the value of life in the show. Not constant death. It’s gonna make part 2 10x more painful for the Non game viewer. Like when Clem shot Lee. 😢
Such a great scene. It always gets me when "bad guys" attacking get pissed when you fight back and kill one of them. "You mother fucker!!" Dude what did you think was going to happen? You literally brought this on yourself! lol
@@rockycuro7737 well obviously? When you see someone crash a car you'd take the opportunity of your targets being winded and dazed (which again happened in the game but luckily Joel was just built different) Besides I don't need to answer that since there are countless shooting videos of people literally running towards other armed people to get a good shot Adrenaline is a hell of a drug, you should try it sometime and be amazed at the decisions you make under it

0:26 I like how relaxed his posture is right before flying through the windows Dude was probably like "I always did want to ram a truck through something" 🤣🤣
Just thought. Ellie asks Joe to take Bill's weapons with them. Joe says no for logistics. But they're in a car so weight isn't a problem. If they had Bill's weapons they'd easily outgun bandits like this and this situation could have been over in seconds. Then just dump the guns you cant use. Or exchange them for goods if the chance arose. Bad move.
just dumb movie plot man. Joel in the movie series could just take an AR-15 load with good optic and couple 30 rounds mag, check carefully before bring it with him and that gun would have last him for all the trip. But nah, let's just bring this trusty bolt action rifle with me. P/S: In the TLOU game, Bill only gave Joel a shotgun.
@@TeitokuGaming the world ends in 2003 in the show, that's peak assault weapon ban. AR-15s were not nearly as common for civilians as they are today. It stands to reason that FEDRA are the only ones making 5.56mm anymore, so switching to a .308 or some other hunting cartridge isn't all that ridiculous.
@@jackmcfarlane7173 2003 was peak time for ammunition manufacturing worldwide- both military and hunting versions of the major cartridges. 5.56x45 and it's more powerful brother hunting cartridge .223 Remington, and 7.62x51 NATO Miltary which is weaker than the hunting grade .308 Winchester were all still in heavy production and things were ramping up as two key things had happened 9/11/2001 and thus the Afghan and Iraqi Wars were being prepp'd for and the 1994 AWB was sunsetting and with a Republican President and a Republican Congress AWB 1994-2004: NOT TODAY YOU JACKBOOT NAZI'S. It was more of a stupid point of media anti-AR Propaganda that has been in a lot of media in the last 10 years. When "THE STAND" was remade Stu- the guy who escapes the laboratory- he could have taken his pick of AR's but he takes a 5rd max bolt gun, whereas in original Stu grabs an AR and doesn't let the door hit his butt on the way out. TLOU:HBO was pure anti-AR propaganda that the soldier in E01 kills Joel's daughter with an AR and Joel sees the AR as "No bueno". But it doesn't bother him to swipe a Ruger 556 and go to town on the last of the fireflies about to pop the lid on Ellie's cranium. TLOU:HBO had Pedro Pascal and Mormont Girl so it was going to do well, regardless of whether it was really that good or not. The Bill episode was all I enjoyed and if it had been 100% Bill and Frank I could not have been more overjoyed as I felt it was the only episode to tell a story to any degree of fruition.
@@jackmcfarlane7173 I think something was said about using guns with more commonly found rounds was said as well. Not everyone has 556 but shotgun shells and hunting rounds would be more common the further you got from a city, as well as most pistol ammo
But even if they used the guns from Bill's, the car would still be out of commission and it would be annoying to carry several assualt rifles/pistols around the city. And the last thing you'd want to do is have other bandits find the wreck and arm themselves with assualt rifles. I'm assuming in an apocalyptic world, it'd better to just stick to the guns you have the most experience with especially since ammo for rifles is more common according to Joel.
Gotta admit that truck looks pretty good for one that has been in the apocalypse for twenty years. Edit: As far as costume design, I like that they show Joel wearing the jacket he wears here, it gives him a more iconic look in my opinion, kinda like how when Rick Grimes got that Denim jacket he wore in S5 -S7 of TWD.
@@valerievendetta7849 I think technically speaking, in terms of bodywork and general looks, that was probably Frank. Bill was filthy but in terms of reliability, he certainly maintained a good truck.
One of the biggest problems with this adaptation is how scared they were to showcase how violent the world is. They had to give everyone motivations that could be argued on whether or not they're justified, and REALLY cut back on the brutality. Like this part of the game is one of if not the hardest chapter because of how dangerous the city is and how repulsive the men who have gained control of it are. I also hate how they switched up the seasons, for what I can only assume was budgetary reasons(which is bullshit lmao), because in the game Pittsburg has been abandoned for years and is completely overgrown and falling apart and it looks BEAUTIFUL
2 things: It's the audacity for me for these people to ambush strangers coming into the city to take all of their shit then THEY try to make themselves out to be the victims. It really ticks me off that out of all the guns they found, and how many of them they brought with them, that Joel ends up with a bolt action rifle.... One of the single worst guns you could have in the apocalypse...
To your first point that is how people act when they start loosing shit they started with confidence they were winning. Just look at Hamas, started the attack and then had the audacity to play victim when their comeuppance came.
WE had pistols a bricks in the game. joel's guns where sold so how the fuck does he have an AR with rounds at the start? ik its a game but still getting the rifle when you .had fuck all was just the best feeling
came here just for the kid screaming for his mom only bcoz HBO must’ve given him 15 secs of spotlight and he needed to pay the bills, he had to have had mold on the walls, roaches under the carpet. acting was so good it took me and my gf out of the scene
to the people who are going to ask about why didnt joel take the AK, you clearly werent paying attention in the beginning where he burried it because there wasn't a lot of bullets for it out in the wasteland which makes sense.
@@baneofbanes that doesn't really matter when it isnt being mass produced. sure some new ammo was being made but it was very scarce. Ammo runs out fast
If you can see the tire spikes on the road before you, it's already too late. By the time you see them, they've already snuck up behind you and spiked the road back too. It's a common practice for ambushes. Can't go back, can't go forwards. You're pretty fucked. Wouldn't be a good ambush if they left such an obvious avenue of escape wide open like that.
@@林佑-z9h Staring like a fish is not acting of shock condition. Such a great shock you can't even show it with emotions? Just stare? Stop defending lame acting, please.
@@sonder_uaits not lame acting, shes supposed to be processing and not everyone shows that on their face. Some people just go blank and try to ignore the guilt so it doesnt eat them alive.
The fact they didn't add the song is the worst part to me about this show, and that there wasnt more of an ambush style walk up on Joel in this situation. But that's it. But over all I enjoyed it as the acting is really good!
Ahem, even because the sound of the several shots that the other hunters had already heard, which was the reason they went since you can obviously hear it from afar, is not the problem, right, but the guy screaming in despair, a few seconds before Joel kill him, trust lol
The kid’s begging and pleading to take him to see his mom is just gut punching I doubt it was an act because even when he’s about to die he’s screaming for his mom Damn that hurts
I really hate how weak Joel feels here. In the game, he gets subdued from behind by one of the hunters while he's regaining consciousness from the car accident, the guy slams his head into a glass and then tries to push his head into a sharp glass to slit his throat, and Joel, despite still being half-unconscious and in a terrible position to wrestle, still overpowers the guy, knocks him out with one punch, and pushes him into the glass the guy was going to stab him with. ua-cam.com/video/Js59biTfIzk/v-deo.htmlsi=abFGukrnH0oYCgYf However, here he loses ridiculously to a guy who's skinnier than him.
So according to Hollywood, when someone is shot they immediately drop on the ground and play dead. But when there's still dialog with them they don't die and they still can actually talk, move and jump around until they finish their role or just go along with their injuries for a certain amount of time. I don't think this is the case in real combat!
Why would you possibly drive forward if you know it's a trap? There's no way they should leave any possible non-dead end further down the street. It makes no sense.
It's easy to overlook what a great job the actor portraying the injured kid did, such a small role but he's got some serious talent.
I think so too.
You're so right, I really had to remind my self he was just acting cuz I really was gonna cry for the poor guy 😂.
I thought it was terrible acting. The kid went for the Oscar and failed. But I respect your opinion.

Joel didn't want her to be a killer. He was garbage at showing it , but he hated what he was, hated he was a monster, and was trying to save her soul, rather then just her life.
"I shot the hell out of that guy, huh?"
“We all got it coming, kid”
"Yeah you sure did."
“It was either him or me”
Damn i really wish they played the song that was playing on the radio in the game, that made the scene so much cooler
It’s not really meant to be cool, it’s meant to be suspenseful and filled with stakes, because the game was, well, a game, so it was mainly surrounded around action. The show is more about the stakes and drama.
Its a tv show its absolutely supposed to be cool.@Matt-wb8ni
@@brandonhannah8230 what tf does that mean?!
@Matt-wb8ni I dunno man. shits just cool I guess
@@brandonhannah8230 I asked how the story being a show makes it mean it’s supposed to be cool.
It’s over we’re not fighting anymore , it’s sad how desperate the kid is but it’s kinda funny to me just because like they literally just tried to brutally murder them and he’s just like “time out time out”
I love the games and I admit I did not have a lot of hope for the show version but thankfully I was proven very wrong the show rocks
Except for the down syndrome.
Tbf, his victims probably pleaded the same way…
Tho, did they even have victims yet? They took over fedra like 2 days prior right?...
With guns, you shoot people without having to look them in the eye. Most soldiers in modern conflicts, for example, just fire into a hostile zone. They don't have to execute people.
Who knows. Its not relevant. They could be angels that thought they where killing someone who was evil and had never done anything bad, they still would have died. Its survival of the fittest, not the morally superior.

Ellie's character development is insane. In TLOU part 2 she would have most likely stabbed him, cleaned the knife with his clothes and said over his corpse something along the lines of "what a little bitch" or "huh, this IS a nice knife, thank you"
Why I like the value of life in the show. Not constant death. It’s gonna make part 2 10x more painful for the Non game viewer. Like when Clem shot Lee. 😢
@@FupaDoncicI need season 2 be as violent as humanly possible. They better not make it into a Disney movie.
@@JL85477 I really hope they stick to the game for Season 2. That were some of the most interesting experiences I ever had with a videogame.
Only to be the most gay she's ever been at the end. Part 2 ending is trash.
To be fair, in part 2 Ellie is a battle hardened warrior. After the beginning of the game, she became even more ruthless than Joel.
Bill's gonna be PISSED about his truck tho

“This is why I don’t trust strangers, Frank. My god damn truck!!!”
Who gonna tell him
They shoukdve kept bill wlive @@lukekiely2450
I mean they’re dead
the fact that the background characters use the same lines NPCs do in the game
"I'm Brian" No you're Dead.
Such a great scene. It always gets me when "bad guys" attacking get pissed when you fight back and kill one of them. "You mother fucker!!" Dude what did you think was going to happen? You literally brought this on yourself! lol
Get back behind the wall, those words have never sounded more terrifying!
Damn that actor that played the raider is TALENTED
"We can trade with you guys!"
Usually one proposes that before shooting at them.
0:27 - That's a pretty sick crash, I'm amazed they're OK! 🤣
S10s were great
It’s always ironic when the enemy gets pissed off because you killed their buddy.
There always sorry right before they get deceased. Facts

“My legs don’t work” is tough
really nice of the bandits to stay still and let them finish their father daughter conversation before advancing
In the game the bandits got to the car before they even opened the door lmao
You don’t wanna risk anything by running at them. Staying far away was a better move
@@rockycuro7737
- car crashed
- outnumbered them
- outgunned them
They clearly stayed far for plot convenience and not for "safety"
@@tunasandwich8049 would you take the risk of running out of cover to attack them head on when you can just stay back and keep shooting at them?
@@rockycuro7737 well obviously? When you see someone crash a car you'd take the opportunity of your targets being winded and dazed (which again happened in the game but luckily Joel was just built different)
Besides I don't need to answer that since there are countless shooting videos of people literally running towards other armed people to get a good shot
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug, you should try it sometime and be amazed at the decisions you make under it

I like how relaxed his posture is right before flying through the windows
Dude was probably like

in all of these scenes.. this one sold me
NGL, Pedro Pascal is the perfect "father" character.
Just thought. Ellie asks Joe to take Bill's weapons with them. Joe says no for logistics. But they're in a car so weight isn't a problem. If they had Bill's weapons they'd easily outgun bandits like this and this situation could have been over in seconds. Then just dump the guns you cant use. Or exchange them for goods if the chance arose. Bad move.
just dumb movie plot man.
Joel in the movie series could just take an AR-15 load with good optic and couple 30 rounds mag, check carefully before bring it with him and that gun would have last him for all the trip.
But nah, let's just bring this trusty bolt action rifle with me.
P/S: In the TLOU game, Bill only gave Joel a shotgun.
@@TeitokuGaming the world ends in 2003 in the show, that's peak assault weapon ban. AR-15s were not nearly as common for civilians as they are today. It stands to reason that FEDRA are the only ones making 5.56mm anymore, so switching to a .308 or some other hunting cartridge isn't all that ridiculous.
@@jackmcfarlane7173 2003 was peak time for ammunition manufacturing worldwide- both military and hunting versions of the major cartridges. 5.56x45 and it's more powerful brother hunting cartridge .223 Remington, and 7.62x51 NATO Miltary which is weaker than the hunting grade .308 Winchester were all still in heavy production and things were ramping up as two key things had happened 9/11/2001 and thus the Afghan and Iraqi Wars were being prepp'd for and the 1994 AWB was sunsetting and with a Republican President and a Republican Congress AWB 1994-2004: NOT TODAY YOU JACKBOOT NAZI'S. It was more of a stupid point of media anti-AR Propaganda that has been in a lot of media in the last 10 years. When "THE STAND" was remade Stu- the guy who escapes the laboratory- he could have taken his pick of AR's but he takes a 5rd max bolt gun, whereas in original Stu grabs an AR and doesn't let the door hit his butt on the way out. TLOU:HBO was pure anti-AR propaganda that the soldier in E01 kills Joel's daughter with an AR and Joel sees the AR as "No bueno". But it doesn't bother him to swipe a Ruger 556 and go to town on the last of the fireflies about to pop the lid on Ellie's cranium. TLOU:HBO had Pedro Pascal and Mormont Girl so it was going to do well, regardless of whether it was really that good or not. The Bill episode was all I enjoyed and if it had been 100% Bill and Frank I could not have been more overjoyed as I felt it was the only episode to tell a story to any degree of fruition.
@@jackmcfarlane7173 I think something was said about using guns with more commonly found rounds was said as well. Not everyone has 556 but shotgun shells and hunting rounds would be more common the further you got from a city, as well as most pistol ammo
But even if they used the guns from Bill's, the car would still be out of commission and it would be annoying to carry several assualt rifles/pistols around the city. And the last thing you'd want to do is have other bandits find the wreck and arm themselves with assualt rifles. I'm assuming in an apocalyptic world, it'd better to just stick to the guns you have the most experience with especially since ammo for rifles is more common according to Joel.
They missed the scene where Joel got smashed into the glass and puahed his attacker throat first into the glass.
Kid gave Joel his own execution weapon 💀
That's what you get brian
Gotta admit that truck looks pretty good for one that has been in the apocalypse for twenty years.
Edit: As far as costume design, I like that they show Joel wearing the jacket he wears here, it gives him a more iconic look in my opinion, kinda like how when Rick Grimes got that Denim jacket he wore in S5 -S7 of TWD.
Bill took care of it really well
I mean, it's not like it was abandoned for 20 years. It was literally in Bill's garage. Still very explainable how it still looks good and runs well.
@@valerievendetta7849 I think technically speaking, in terms of bodywork and general looks, that was probably Frank. Bill was filthy but in terms of reliability, he certainly maintained a good truck.
Bill was maintaining his truck regularly in case he needed to get supplies elsewhere, most likely.
Is that lady Mormont?
Yes!
One of the biggest problems with this adaptation is how scared they were to showcase how violent the world is. They had to give everyone motivations that could be argued on whether or not they're justified, and REALLY cut back on the brutality. Like this part of the game is one of if not the hardest chapter because of how dangerous the city is and how repulsive the men who have gained control of it are. I also hate how they switched up the seasons, for what I can only assume was budgetary reasons(which is bullshit lmao), because in the game Pittsburg has been abandoned for years and is completely overgrown and falling apart and it looks BEAUTIFUL
Obtaining the knife saved a bullet, very economical
Superb acting from the kid who gets paralyzed. He sold desperation
2 things:
It's the audacity for me for these people to ambush strangers coming into the city to take all of their shit then THEY try to make themselves out to be the victims.
It really ticks me off that out of all the guns they found, and how many of them they brought with them, that Joel ends up with a bolt action rifle.... One of the single worst guns you could have in the apocalypse...
To your first point that is how people act when they start loosing shit they started with confidence they were winning. Just look at Hamas, started the attack and then had the audacity to play victim when their comeuppance came.
That's exactly exactly how you deal with people in a post-apocalyptic world. It's not a coincidence that most human beings vanish in such a scenario.
Maaaaan this show was so good.
People always looking to bash shid just to bash. The show is amazing don’t care if it isn’t 100% accurate to the game. Get over yourselves
WE had pistols a bricks in the game. joel's guns where sold so how the fuck does he have an AR with rounds at the start?
ik its a game but still getting the rifle when you .had fuck all was just the best feeling
Joel : No Prisoner! Just Victory!!!
Joel was playing on grounded mode that’s why he had to save that bullet
“He’s not even hurt”❌
“Nope”✅
If Joel was born in 2013: *nuh uh*
@@darkshadowgamingiiI replied so fast lol 💀
No mercy to those who try and kill me, i would not expect mercy from him after all
1:16 "They're not gonna hit you."
*Ground explodes right in front of them*
Still didn't hit them tho, so why are you welching
came here just for the kid screaming for his mom only bcoz HBO must’ve given him 15 secs of spotlight and he needed to pay the bills, he had to have had mold on the walls, roaches under the carpet. acting was so good it took me and my gf out of the scene
LOOL u so right too
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The guy crying out for his mom makes me feel like other actors should act like that in similar scene scenarios. It's such a realistic standard.
to the people who are going to ask about why didnt joel take the AK, you clearly werent paying attention in the beginning where he burried it because there wasn't a lot of bullets for it out in the wasteland which makes sense.
What AK? You mean the M4?
And yet all of the bad guys are running around with them.
And if there’s no ammo for automatic weapons there’s no ammo for bolt action rifles either.
@@baneofbanes
because they seized a fedra armory?
@@delusionalnoodles yah no.
5.56, the caliber that the M4 is chambered in, is one of the most common bullets in America.
@@baneofbanes that doesn't really matter when it isnt being mass produced. sure some new ammo was being made but it was very scarce. Ammo runs out fast
Maybe go reverse next time instead of driving into the known trap..
If you can see the tire spikes on the road before you, it's already too late. By the time you see them, they've already snuck up behind you and spiked the road back too. It's a common practice for ambushes. Can't go back, can't go forwards. You're pretty fucked. Wouldn't be a good ambush if they left such an obvious avenue of escape wide open like that.
Injured boy shows some peak emotions and pure acting, while main character that shot him just do poker face. What is it called in movie industry?
She's probably in great shock. I don't think she has shot someone before
@@林佑-z9h Staring like a fish is not acting of shock condition. Such a great shock you can't even show it with emotions? Just stare? Stop defending lame acting, please.
@@sonder_uaits not lame acting, shes supposed to be processing and not everyone shows that on their face. Some people just go blank and try to ignore the guilt so it doesnt eat them alive.
@@Sky-Daddy Yeah, that's why we watch fiction movies. To watch a "realistic" blank faces. Great explanation
No music :(
Yeah I missed that
The fact they didn't add the song is the worst part to me about this show, and that there wasnt more of an ambush style walk up on Joel in this situation. But that's it.
But over all I enjoyed it as the acting is really good!
Good idea, conseve precious ammo and go for the melee kill
joel never would have let that hunter live as long as he did
Letting a guy scream like that when you're worried about more people showing up isn't a great move! 🤣
Ahem, even because the sound of the several shots that the other hunters had already heard, which was the reason they went since you can obviously hear it from afar, is not the problem, right, but the guy screaming in despair, a few seconds before Joel kill him, trust lol
"My legs don't work!"
Which means Ellie probably shot him in the lumbar region of his spinal column.
Thanks God for that rifle didn't slip off from the backseat after hitting a wall with 40 mph.
What happened to Joel’s hand-to-hand combat skills? The melee in the game is satisfying asl
He got snuck up on when his gun was jammed and had that guys entire body weight in his neck, he couldn’t really do anything
Also remember Joel is fatigued from having a car crash and not sleeping at all the night before
Joel is willing to go full John Wick to save and protect Ellie
Correct Facts😉😎 Joel Pro
In their last moments… people show you who they’re really are .
cope.
Yeah, that's right. That's right, call for ya mama.
He would have ended Joel. No he's not sorry.
The kid’s begging and pleading to take him to see his mom is just gut punching
I doubt it was an act because even when he’s about to die he’s screaming for his mom
Damn that hurts

I wish, from Bill's extensive armory, I didnt choose a fucking bolt action...
أين أستطيع ان اشاهد المسلسل؟؟ الرجاء
I really hate how weak Joel feels here. In the game, he gets subdued from behind by one of the hunters while he's regaining consciousness from the car accident, the guy slams his head into a glass and then tries to push his head into a sharp glass to slit his throat, and Joel, despite still being half-unconscious and in a terrible position to wrestle, still overpowers the guy, knocks him out with one punch, and pushes him into the glass the guy was going to stab him with. ua-cam.com/video/Js59biTfIzk/v-deo.htmlsi=abFGukrnH0oYCgYf
However, here he loses ridiculously to a guy who's skinnier than him.
No wonder joel is deaf in one ear lol
Potato faceeeeee!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂
When Joel want to kill hem why Joel say for Ellie go behind the wall?
There can be no mercy.....
They nerfed Joel here a LOT!
I got my ass kicked in this mission lol
That was awesome great scene
So according to Hollywood, when someone is shot they immediately drop on the ground and play dead. But when there's still dialog with them they don't die and they still can actually talk, move and jump around until they finish their role or just go along with their injuries for a certain amount of time. I don't think this is the case in real combat!
Why would you possibly drive forward if you know it's a trap? There's no way they should leave any possible non-dead end further down the street. It makes no sense.
In the game, Joel stabs a guy with a broken window pane. This is not realistic. 😂
2:37 I love Pedro pascal as Joel but Hugh jackman as Joel would not let this happen and he would actually hurt the kid with one hit
Nah, you took it upon yourself to ambush me, you're sure as hell ain't gonna be seeing your mom
I said "he ain't even hurt," before realising they didn't include it. No's funny though.
