Emiliano, Joel, and Ellie saw the town just up ahead.

Joel: Now there we go...

Joel looks over the railing.

Joel: Yeah, it'll be faster to go through here.

Joel jumps over the railing and so does Emiliano and Ellie.

Ellie: Man..

Joel: What?

Ellie: Nothing. It's just... I've never seen anything like this, that's all.

Emiliano: You mean the woods?

Ellie: Yeah. Never walked through the woods. It's kinda cool.

Emiliano: You'l like it. It's very peaceful.

Ellie: Okay.. Hey, why don't you just take me back to Marlene?

Joel: If she was up to the task, why'd she drop you off on us?

Ellie: Well, maybe she's better now.

Joel: Kid, I don't mean to upset you, but your friend's chances of survival weren't too high to begin with.

Ellie: She's a lot tougher than you think.

Joel: It don't matter. 'Cause I doubt I could get either one of us back to the city in one piece. Trust me. I wish there were some other options.

Ellie: So, Emiliano...

Emiliano: What is it?

Ellie: Where did you learn how to do all of that stuff?

Emiliano: Someone close to me taught it to me.

Ellie: I'm guessing her name was Cassandra?

Emiliano: Yeah...

Ellie: Sorry, I didn't mean to-

Emiliano: It's fine. You're just curious that's all. She Taught it to me so that I could survive in this world.

They arrived at the gate but it was locked.

Joel: Damn...

Ellie: Can't we just climb it?

Joel: No, there's wires on the top. We'll have to find a different way.

Emiliano: Maybe we can use the plank over there to walk across.

Emiliano, Joel, and Ellie jump over the tree. Emiliano climbs to the roof of the little building as Joel grabs the plank and he sets it next to the wall. Emiliano pulls the plank up and he sets it down at the other building so they could cross it. Emiliano, Ellie, and Joel walk across the plank as they reach the other side. Joel sees smoke in the city.

Joel: That you Bill?

Ellie: Where do you usually meet him?

Joel: Huh? Different places.

Ellie: You've never been here haven't you?

Joel: I know this is where he lives, but.. no, I ain't never been here personally.

Ellie: And that smoke, you think that's him?

Joel: Sure as hell better be.

Emiliano: So, basically we're gonna have to find him?

Joel: Yeah.

Emiliano: Well, let's go then.

Joel: Down here. Just watch your step. It's a good drop.

Emiliano, Ellie, and Joel drop down. Jin and Joel then heard a clicker inside the little shed.

Joel: Be quiet, there's a clicker inside.
