The Last of Us Episode 8 gave viewers the ugliest look at the world in this post-apocalyptic world. David comes walking into Ellie’s world and tries to take it over, and she does what she needs to. This is where everybody’s favorite character finally steps into the darkness that she was mostly sheltered from.

Excellent performances are by now a norm with this series, but once again Bella Ramsey has proven her prowess as an actress in this episode. So well that fans are left wondering if she deserves to get an award for her role as Ellie.

But slowly, as Bella Ramsey started creeping inside the skin of that character, the character too started getting fleshed out.
