[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, it’s official.  I can’t stand Ellie.  She is the most sanctimonious ahole.  We see in this episode what a tremendous father figure Joel was to her - yet when he tells her he saved her because he loves her, she says she can’t forgive him for that (not letting them kill her to develop a vaccine).  What a tool.  She owes everything to Joel.  She didn’t deserve him. [/quote]

Yeah, hated her this episode. The way she was so cruel to Gail. Eating cake like an animal. Just wanted to punch her smug face. What an insufferable character[/quote]

Be real: you've hated her the whole show (and posted about it here, at length, after every episode).  :roll:

She wasn't "cruel to Gail". She was cruel to Joel, refusing to keep his "little secret" because it made her realize he'd also lied to her about what happened with the fireflies. It's a time-honored teen tradition, breaking away from your allegiance to your authority figure/parent. It's just that, in this setting, the weight of it, the opportunity for it to be catastrophic instead of just dramatic, is so much greater. But she wasn't doing it to hurt Gail. She wasn't doing it for/against Gail at all. She didn't seem to think what it would mean for Gail. She did it to @ Joel, publicly, because she'd figured out he'd lied about keeping her alive.

NP. She was cruel to Gail. The truth of what happened was far more heartbreaking than her thinking Eugene was trying to keep her safe as he died. It was a selfish, stupid thing of Ellie to do.[/quote]
