Last of Us Season 2 Episode 3 Recap

'Last of Us Season 2 Episode 3 Delivers Heart-Wrenching Twist and Stunning Performances'

Los Angeles, April 28, 2025 – HBO’s The Last of Us Season 2 continues to captivate audiences with its third episode, delivering an emotional gut-punch that has left fans reeling. Titled 'Old Wounds,' the latest installment delves deeper into the post-apocalyptic world, blending intense action with profound character moments that stay true to the spirit of the acclaimed video game.

A Shocking Loss and a New Threat

(Warning: Spoilers Ahead)

Episode 3 takes a bold narrative turn with the death of a major character—Jesse, a fan-favorite from The Last of Us Part II. Played by Book of Mormon star Josh Gad, Jesse meets a tragic end in a brutal confrontation with the Washington Liberation Front (WLF), further fueling Ellie’s (Bella Ramsey) thirst for revenge. The episode’s harrowing final moments, set against a rain-soaked Seattle, leave viewers in stunned silence.

Meanwhile, Pedro Pascal’s Joel continues to grapple with the consequences of his actions from Season 1, as flashbacks reveal his strained relationship with Ellie. A particularly poignant scene between the two underscores the show’s central theme: the cost of love in a broken world.

Praise for Performances and Direction

Critics are already hailing this episode as one of the series’ best, with particular praise for Ramsey’s raw, visceral portrayal of Ellie’s rage and grief. Guest star Kaitlyn Dever, who plays Abby, also delivers a standout performance, adding layers of complexity to a character destined to become a focal point of the season.

Director Liza Johnson (Better Call Saul, Ozark) masterfully balances intimate character moments with pulse-pounding tension, culminating in a climactic sequence that rivals the show’s most memorable set pieces.

Fan Reactions and What’s Next

Social media exploded following the episode’s airing, with #TheLastOfUs trending worldwide. Some fans expressed devastation over Jesse’s death, while others praised the show’s willingness to take risks.

With the war between Ellie’s group and the WLF escalating, Episode 4 promises even higher stakes—and possibly more heartbreak.

The Last of Us airs Sundays on HBO and streams on Max.
