Joel & Ellie.
This is a part of the game that they’re deciding whether to put it on the game or not… But - I managed to find the script for it! Let’s share it with the fans and hope it’s in the game. It’s a really awesome moment between the two! Please publish this!
*Joel struggles with an Infected on top of him*
*Ellie hears the struggle and runs into the room*
Ellie: “Oh shit! Joel!”
*Picks up an AK-47, hesitantly aims, and fires. Effectively killing the Infected on top of Joel*
*Joel pushes the corpse off of him*
Ellie: “Oh shit! … Man.. I shot the hell out of that thing, huh?”
*Joel looks at her and gets back on his feet*
Joel: “You sure did..”
Ellie: “He was going to kill you..”
Joel: *Sarcastically* “He wasn’t going to kiss me…”
*Looks at Ellie holding the gun, and takes it from her possession*
Ellie: “I’ve seen you kill a hundred of those things and nothing. Ugh - I feel sick…”
Joel: “Why did you hang back?”
*Ellie shoots him a look*
Ellie: “Glad I didn’t right?”
Joel: “I’m glad I didn’t get my head blown off…”
*Ellie looks offended and stands up*
Ellie: “You know what? No. Not helpful. How about: “Hey Ellie, it was either him or me thanks for saving my ass!” .. I don’t know, you got anything like that for me Joel?”
*Joel looks down at his gun, then looks at her and points*
Joel: “You know what your problem is?”
Joel: “You got to work your way up to a gun like this” *laughs*
*Walks over, places the AK-47 down and grabs a small pistol*
Joel: “You need something smaller”
*Reaching out the pistol to Ellie, but she backs away*
Ellie: “I don’t know, what about what you sai-“
Joel: “I changed my mind, here go ahead”
*Joel gently places his hand on her shoulder is reassurance*
*Ellie grabs the gun*
Joel: “Now, don’t be scared of it, but don’t be too over-confident either.”
*Points to the T.V*
Joel: “There. The T.V will work. Go on hold it up.”
*Ellie lifts the gun with one hand and points*
*Joel rolls his eyes*
Joel: “With both hands…”
*Ellie’s place both hands on the gun, and grabs a firm grip*
Joel: “Now, take a deep breath”
*Ellie exhales gently*
Joel: “And just- squeeze..”
*Ellie looks at him bewildered*
Joel: “Go on now.”
Ellie: “Okay..” *Exhales and shoots the gun, hitting the T.V*
Ellie: “Aww!”
Joel: “And that’s how she rolls.”
*Looks at the gun and laughs*
Ellie: “Well I guess that’s one way to bond.”
*Joel hears a noise*
Joel: “Sssh sshh!”
*Joel looks around and turns to Ellie*
Joel: “You hear that?”
Ellie: “Haha, very funny..”
*Joel walks away and another noise is heard, this time louder*
*Ellie looks at him and nods*
Ellie: “Okay, I hear it.”
*Joel picks up the AK-47 and dashes out of the room and looks out the window, Ellie stays behind with the gun and takes cover*
Ellie: (yells from the backroom) “Hey! You weren’t supposed to leave me behind again!”
Joel: “Ellie! Get over here!”
*Ellie makes her way into the room slowly*
Joel: “C’mere.”
Ellie: “Well?”
*Joel points out the window, revealing an unknown object or sight*
Ellie: “Whoa - so cool!”
*Ellie puts her hands on the railing, with the gun still in her hand*
Ellie: “Can we go down there?!”
Joel: “Whoa, whoa. Why don’t you just let me hang onto that.”
*Gently takes her gun and puts it in his back pocket*
*Ellie and Joel get up and leave to go investigate*
Joel: “Wait.”
*Ellie turns around and look up at him.*
Joel: “Just so you know - It was either me or you.”
*Referring to having him get attacked by an infected rather than her*
*Ellie smiles and puts her hand on his shoulder*
Ellie: “You’re welcome.”
