Why Abby’s Deadly Revenge Against Joel Will Shock You in The Last of Us Season 2!

As a gamer, I’m hyped for the premiere of HBO’s The Last of Us Season 2! In this new season, my eyes are locked on the brewing conflict between Abby and Joel. While her comrades mourn the tragic loss at Firefly, Abby holds a deeply personal grudge against Ellie’s protector, Joel. She’s relentlessly pursuing him, which promises a dangerous showdown with Pedro Pascal’s character. This vendetta of hers stems from the death of her loved one – setting us up for an unforgettable journey!

Here’s why Abby wants to kill Joel in The Last of Us Season 2

In The Last of Us Season 2, the character played by Kaitlyn Dever, named Abby, embarks on a quest to track down and eliminate Joel. Her animosity isn’t spontaneous—it stems from her past experiences. Abby’s father, Dr. Jerry Anderson, was a Firefly surgeon. It was he who had been preparing to operate on Ellie with the intention of developing a possible cure for mankind.

In The Last of Us’s first season, Abby’s character didn’t make an appearance at the end. However, a flashback in The Last of Us Part II gives us a different insight. It depicts that before being summoned to attend to the immune girl (Ellie) who had finally reached the Firefly station, Abby was with her father.

In a different wording: Despite not being able to bear Ellie being taken by the process, Joel acted decisively and took charge. Prior to taking out Anderson, Joel eliminated the rest of the Firefly team present in the building. However, the game storyline implies that Abby was on her way to stop Joel from eliminating the Firefly unit members.

Regrettably, despite her most diligent attempts, she couldn’t make it to the operating room quick enough to save her father, who was ultimately lost. Possible flashback sequences involving Abby and Joel within the Firefly structure might emerge in Season 2.

In the opening installment of The Last of Us season 2, we learn that Abby’s relentless pursuit of Joel has persisted for over five years. As the episode concludes, it appears that Abby and her crew have made their way to Wyoming. However, Wyoming holds more significance than just being Joel’s hideout; it is the secure sanctuary shared by his brother Tommy and others.

Abby’s arrival in Wyoming could further strain Joel and Ellie’s relationship, which has been fragile for some time now. During a therapy session with Gail, it becomes clear that Ellie is unaware of what happened to Marlene and other Firefly members. If Abby confronts Joel, there’s a chance Ellie might learn the truth about her brain surgery.
