We’re solely one episode into The Last of Us’ second season and the memes are already flowing, with one line from Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby feeding into the web’s thirst for Joel actor Pedro Pascal.
Looking back, I ought to have anticipated followers to latch onto somebody commenting on Joel’s attractiveness. When she known as her dad’s killer “good-looking,” one thing she presumably should have heard from individuals who noticed him doing mass homicide, I stated “you’re so proper, bestie.” I didn’t suppose a lot of it on the time, however now that it’s getting used as a lead-in to thirst edits, I really feel like somebody within the author’s room knew precisely what they have been doing.
In context, the road is type of foolish. Abby, a lady who would go on to lose years of her life to a violent vendetta in opposition to this man, stating that witnesses additionally stated that he’s handsome, simply feels extra like a understanding nod to the internet’s love of Pascal than one thing Abby would ever care to carry up. Additionally, like, what Firefly is telling Abby, after the loss of life of her father, that the man who shot him was a looker? Why would you say that to a toddler? I’m not alone in that sentiment both, as some viewers have also expressed their own disbelief. However my points with the road apart (I swear I’m not gonna be a celebration pooper all season), the reality of this remark has made it one of many first large inside jokes of the season.
There are nonetheless six episodes to go this season, so there might be lots extra possibilities for the web to create extra jokes out of the horrible tragedies these characters are about to be put by means of. For extra on the season, check out Kotaku’s review.
