A man entered a small house as he saw his wife sitting on a chair. He closed the door behind him before the woman glanced at her left, signaling to the man that someone else was here.

The man put his bow on a nearby table before putting his gloves on it as well. He slowly took off his jacket before a voice spoke up.

"And the gun."

"Yeah, I got eyes." Marlon replied as he looked at the table in the middle, seeing a map and a few bowls of soup. "You made him soup?"

"Yeah, I did. It's cold out."

The man sighed as he sat down across from his wife.

"I'm lookin' for my brother." Joel spoke up, making the man scoff.

"Well, I ain't seen him."

"I haven't told you what he looks like."

"He look anything like you?"

"A bit."

"Then I ain't seen him."

"He's got another man with him." Florence spoke up again. "And a girl. Even a dog."

"Can I come down?" Ellie's muffled voice was heard before a soft slap. "What the fuck, dude?"

"No. Ellie!" Joel watched as Ellie ran away with Y/N chasing after her.

"Ooh-wa." Marlon spoke, making his wife chuckle.

Ellie appeared downstairs as she also pointed her gun at the man.
