The next episode of The Last of Us is set to tackle the game’s “Left Behind” DLC, and explore the life of Ellie (Bella Ramsey) prior to the outbreak that sent the world into disarray. Warner Bros. Discovery recently released a batch of images to prepare fans for what they’ll see.
The new images showcase Ellie and Riley (played by Storm Reid in the episode) as they explore an abandoned mall, similar to the actions that take place in the DLC. Also included in the images are shots of Ellie laying in bed, as well as sitting in front of a desk and looking none too pleased.

While HBO Max hasn’t released an official synopsis for the episode, fans who played the game already know “Left Behind” will show a pivotal part of Ellie’s story.
“The live-action series takes place 20 years after modern civilization has been destroyed,” reads the series synopsis. “Joel and Ellie, a pair connected through the harshness of the world they live in, are forced to endure brutal circumstances and ruthless killers on a trek across a post-pandemic America.”
