36:09 | For failing to save its operative, BB-28 is ordered to be cremated.
BB-28 was initially assigned to Igor Frank of Bridges Corpse Disposal. When corpse disposal of a necrotizing suicide victim goes wrong, BB-28 is tossed to Sam by Igor before Igor is killed in a voidout. For failing to save its operative, BB-28 is ordered to be cremated and unknowingly taken by Sam to an incinerator along with President Bridget Strand's corpse.
However, upon realizing the BB is still alive, Sam defies the order, and soon after establishes a trance connection with the infant to escape a group of beached things. After Sam returns to Capital Knot City, Deadman recalibrates BB-28 and gives the infant back to Sam. Thereafter, Sam uses BB-28 extensively in his westward expedition.
Throughout Sam's journey, BB-28 becomes increasingly attached to Sam, who eventually begins affectionately referring to the infant as "Lou" – the name he and his late wife were going to give their unborn daughter. Lou is eventually taken from Sam by Deadman, who states that the infant requires realignment between the worlds of the living and dead after having veered too far towards the former by bonding with Sam.
Furthermore, Deadman reveals that the realignment procedure may erase Lou's memories, but that failing to perform the procedure would result in Lou reaching the end of their function within merely days following. When Deadman returns Lou to Sam, Lou seems to be more bonded with Deadman than Sam. After interacting with Sam again, Lou's connection with him is eventually rekindled.
This connection is later displayed when Lou controls Sam's odradek to protect him from gunfire received from Higgs. One last delivery When a decommissioning order comes through for Lou to be incinerated, Deadman mentions that Sam may try removing Lou from their BB pod to see what happens, in direct contravention of an executive order.
Sam then takes Lou to the nearest incinerator. At the Incinerator West of Capital Knot City, Sam removes Lou from their BB pod and frantically attempts to stimulate activity in the lifeless infant. With a spectral umbilical cord forming tethered to Lou and infant BTs floating above the two, a dejected Sam holds Lou in his embrace. To Sam's surprise, Lou lets out a fussy cry before playfully grabbing Sam's UCA quipu.
Together with Lou, Sam leaves the incinerator and cradles Lou in an ending drizzle of rain bearing no effects of timefall, just as sunlight breaks through and an ordinary rainbow forms above them.

20:56 | Amelie presents Sam with two choices.
Samuel "Sam" Strand, widely known as Sam Porter Bridges, is a legendary porter and member of Bridges who plays an integral role in expanding the Chiral Network and making the United Cities of America whole by embarking on a westward expedition.
Arriving on Amelie's Beach, Sam searches for Amelie until she appears to him. She reveals to him that "Amelie" and "Bridget" are merely names of the two halves of the single extinction entity she is – her "ka" (soul) and "ha" (body), respectively. Furthermore, she reveals that Sam's expansion of the Chiral Network has bound all connected to the network to her Beach, thus enabling the Last Stranding, as has always been her plan.
She presents Sam with two choices: watch the swift ending of the world together with her "until the last flame winks out", or use Die-Hardman's left behind revolver to sever his connection to her and her Beach and postpone the Last Stranding. Sam chooses instead to embrace her, assuring her he would always be there for her as she has for him.
Amelie reveals that as an extinction entity, she has been fated to usher in the Last Stranding, and that after an agonizingly long span of solitude on the Beach, she opted to set the Last Stranding in motion in advance by utilizing the expanded Chiral Network as a catalyst.
She chooses to remain on the Beach, to spare humanity the worst of the inevitable Last Stranding and in the hope of providing life an opportunity to come out stronger from the extinction. After sharing one last embrace with Sam, Amelie pushes him out of her Beach and into his own to return to his allies.

24:37 | Bridges has a field unit that delivers bodies for disposal.
Bridges is a company that was formed to reconnect the fractured society of United States of America, active in the world of Death Stranding. The company bears close relation to a conglomerate named the United Cities of America as shown by the Bridges logo being on the carpet of the Oval Office and on the company badge.
Bridges has a field unit that mainly deals with the recovery or delivery of bodies, the Corpse Disposal Team 6. Bridges also has a unit that focuses on medicine & treatment, easily seen via their bright red suits. They were primarily featured in taking care of President Bridget Strand.

36:46 | Unger was known for consistently bringing back his unit alive.
Clifford "Cliff" Unger was a United States Army Special Forces captain who was shot dead attempting to reclaim custody of his son from Bridges. Following his death, he became beached in a restless search for his "BB" as the "Combat Veteran". Captain Clifford Unger served in the United States Army Special Forces before the Death Stranding, having fought in Iraq, Afghanistan, and many other countries.
He was known for consistently bringing back his unit alive and unscathed. Among his unit was a soldier known as John Blake McClane, who would later go by the name "Die-Hardman", a moniker given to him because Cliff kept saving him and bringing him home.
Eventually, Cliff fell in love with and married Lisa Bridges, and they conceived a son. Because of his impending fatherhood, Cliff left active duty to be with his family. Following his return, Cliff and Lisa were involved in an accident, from which both came out alive, but with Lisa rendered brain dead and their unborn son at risk of death. Desperate to save his family, Cliff willingly brought them to Bridges for experimental procedures, not realizing what would become of his son.
Lisa was put on life support to prevent her death and necrosis, and their baby inside a portable pod full of amniotic fluid, keeping him suspended in development until further notice. Cliff gradually came to accept that his wife would never come back to him, and so turned his attention to his unborn son, whom he took to calling "BB".
Cliff bonded with his son, telling him stories, singing to him, and bringing him a cake for his would-be birth date. He also reconnected with John, who was working as security personnel for Bridges. However, Bridget Strand forced Cliff into putting BB through further experiments. Eventually, John came to Cliff and warned him that Bridges would be moving BB to another facility.
He claimed that despite his sworn allegiance to Bridget's presidency, he wanted Cliff's suffering to be over. Though he could not help Lisa, Die-Hardman wanted to give Cliff and his son a fighting chance at life, and offered him an opportunity to escape. However, he warned Cliff that if he caught him, he would be ordered to kill Cliff and would do so.
On the night of the escape attempt, Die-Hardman revealed that Lisa's life support could not be taken offline, so Cliff would have to kill her himself. Providing him with a loaded revolver, Die-Hardman left Cliff to make a decision while the systems were down. Wrapping his gun in cloth, Cliff apologized to Lisa and swore to protect their son, kissing her and calling her his "Anomalisa".
He then put a pillow over her head and shot her twice. Cliff then took BB and fled the hospital room. Making his way through the hospital, Cliff tried opening the exit doors, but they were locked automatically. An alarm went off and two guards stumbled upon him. Threatening to shoot BB, Cliff ran, but was shot through the back by several times by Bridges security.
An intervening Die-Hardman caught up to Cliff bleeding out against a wall and tried to stop security forces from gunning him down. Cliff briefly used his friend as a shield, thanking him for his efforts to help, before retreating into Lisa's room and shooting the electronic lock to seal security out briefly. Cliff apologized to his wife for his failure, and sang to BB as they waited for security to break into the room.
Die-Hardman tried to divert them from the room, but Bridget ordered the doors to be forced open. Cliff readied to take on the Bridges security personnel, but was quickly gunned down. In his final moments, Cliff took BB out of his pod and told him that abandoning his duty and being there for his family is what made him brave, and begged him to not make the same mistakes as him and to be free. After realizing BB had been removed from the pod, Bridget ordered Die-Hardman to execute Cliff.
When he hesitated, Bridget grabbed his arm and pulled the trigger of his gun, shooting Cliff in the chest and killing him, as well as BB. This led Bridget to defer to her "ka", Amelie, on the Beach, who healed and repatriated BB – an act that allowed the BTs to cross over from the other side and precipitated the Death Stranding.

7:45 | Die-Hardman works with Amelie to convince Sam to continue.
Die-Hardman, real name John Blake McClane is the current & 3rd President of the United Cities of America and Director of Bridges. Die-Hardman was originally a member of the green beret under the command of Captain Cliff Unger. Some time after Amelie is captured by the Homo demens, Die-Hardman works with her to attempt to convince Sam to continue on her westward expedition, connect all cities to the Chiral Network, and bring her back to Capital Knot City.
Die-Hardman's mask has text on its forehead that reads "BR-10-14P-9999 LUDENS". The mask's jaw moves with his own jaw when he talks. Deadman asks Sam why he wears the mask since he knew him by long date, which he replies that when he first met him he was already wearing a mask being told that it had something to do with burns to his face.
It is later revealed that his face is not damaged, and he is using it to hide his face.

30:39 | Higgs is the leader of the militant separatist group Homo Demens.
Higgs Monaghan, also known as the "Man in the Golden Mask", is the main antagonist of Death Stranding. He is the leader of the militant separatist group known as the Homo Demens. Higgs was raised by his uncle early in his life after both of his parents died. His uncle refused to let Higgs leave their shelter and would beat him whenever Higgs asked about the outside world.
Higgs would eventually kill his uncle in self defense with a knife and witnessed the body becoming a BT after having to dispose of his corpse, gaining his DOOMS in the process. Higgs founded the militant separatist group known as the Homo Demens, who oppose the United Cities of America and seek to maintain the independence of Edge Knot City.
While confronting Sam in Port Knot City, Higgs claims to understand the truth of the Death Stranding. He uses his powers to summon the same BT Sam sees whenever he is taken. Higgs disappears, leaving Sam to kill the BT or total Port Knot with a voidout. After leaving Mama's Lab, Higgs appears before Sam and manifests a large, four-legged BT, issuing the deliveryman a challenge: avoid being eaten. At another point, Higgs goes to the beach and steals Amelie's quipu.
Sam sees this in a vision where Higgs stabs her in the neck. Higgs and Sam have their final confrontation on the beach. After Sam defeats Higgs, Fragile gives Higgs the choice of suicide or being stranded on the beach. Higgs later wrote about his defeat in his journal, before writing about his childhood. Highly meticulous and malicious, Higgs has no qualms nor moral boundaries when orchestrating ruthless acts of slaughter and gleefully participates out of fun and personal enjoyment.
Holding an aura of unshakable confidence, charisma, and sarcasm, he rarely loses his cool and consistently maintains a composed and collected personality. No holds-barred when engineering voidouts killing thousands for that reason as well as to install fear in the cities guided and united under the UCA Alliance, and to facilitate the extinction of humanity.
Higgs has a layer of dark humor when confronting Sam and Fragile as well as overall. Musing about death and destruction of the first POTUS, and noting that Amelie wasn't cut out for a similar role. Having no restraint over his men and sees them as infallible and loyal. Highly egotistical and arrogant. Higgs views himself as greater than humanity, yet also has accepted the inevitability of the sixth extinction event. In his dealings with other humans, especially Sam Bridges, he uses his chiralium control as demonstrations of his superior nature.
Despite his violent behavior, Higgs demonstrates a very high intellect and understanding of various concepts prior to Sam and Fragile. Higgs displays his worst traits through an affable exterior that hides his more evil intentions. He once believed in the preservation of the UCA and actively supported their cause. Due to him meeting Amelie, he finds out the truth about everything and becomes a hyper-fatalist hellbent on creating about a mass extinction of humanity, the sixth such event.
He implores Sam to cave in to the reality of his apparent inevitable destruction. His philosophy is heavily influenced by his realization of extinction entities and their purpose. As noted above, he accepts this fate without pause, and even manipulates Sam into helping the acceleration of the 6th Extinction Event. Higgs carries a portable tank with a fetus-shaped figure inside.
Rather than emitting an orange-yellow glow when activated, as the bridge baby's pod does, his portable pod emits a red one. The bottom casing of Higgs' pod is also green, rather than orange like the bridge baby's. Inside of the pod is an old, corroded baby doll that connects him to Amelie. Underneath his golden mask, Higgs wears another black mask.
Both he and Sam began as porters. Higgs' successes and admiration from the communities inflated his ego but made him susceptible to a fall to madness after he met Amelie. Sam managed to remain humble and remember the purpose of helping connect others and chose to carry on living even after learning of Amelie's true nature.
He mails Sam under the pseudonym Peter Englert. Each mail is about delivering a pizza, claiming to be Sam's greatest fan, and pleasing a (non-existent) relative.

10:39 | Heartman's heart stops every 21 minutes.
Heartman's heart stops every 21 minutes, and after dying, for three minutes he searches for his wife and daughter on the other side, before being resurrected by the automated external defibrillator (AED) on his chest. Heartman sees his condition as something of a blessing in disguise; his ability to regularly "visit" the other side and then return to the living is relatively unique, and it allows him to effectively (if slowly) research phenomena related to the Death Stranding in addition to searching for his family.
Heartman generally keeps an alarm that warns him of his impending death, but can and does switch it off occasionally. Given his condition, Heartman dies approximately 60 times a day. According to Heartman, he has been to the other side 218,550 times as of his first meeting with Sam. When calculated, 218,550 of Heartman's "cycles" equal to just under one decade (approximately 3642.5 days, or 9.97 years).
Heartman has made changes to his lifestyle to accommodate his life-death-revival cycle. In his room, the floor, walls, and other surfaces are all covered in a thick layer of padding, likely to reduce the chance of bodily injury should he lose track of the time and die before getting into a comfortable position.
Heartman also maintains a collection of various short pieces of media (short films and stories, TV shows, music albums, etc.), all of which can be enjoyed in 21 minutes or less. Heartman has a rare genetic deformity called "myocardial cordiformia," which caused his actual heart to develop in the shape of a symbolic heart ( ❤ ). This condition is purely fictional.

Highlights /The Last of Us Part One
51:24 | You build walls to keep danger out. Problem is, sometimes you trap yourself.
On the night of April 28th 2034, Joel wakes up in a hospital bed to find Marlene welcoming him to the Fireflies. After apologizing for the bump on the head, Marlene asks how Joel and Ellie managed to find the Fireflies, to which Joel responds that Ellie "fought like hell" to get here. Joel asks to see Ellie but Marlene denies him, saying that she is being prepped for surgery as they speak. Marlene reveals that the Cordyceps in Ellie's brain has somehow mutated according to the doctors, hence why she is immune.
Studying her brain would allow the doctors to reverse-engineer a vaccine, though since the fungus grows all over the brain, Joel figures out that Ellie would be killed, insisting that the woman find someone else only to be detained by his guard, Ethan. Foreseeing this, and knowing that Joel had formed a close bond with Ellie in the past year to the point that he would not allow the surgery to proceed, Marlene orders Ethan to march Joel out of the hospital and kill him if he tries anything.
Marlene leaves, and Joel, after seeing his backpack, disarms and tortures Ethan to tell him where the operating room is. Finding out that it is on the top floor, Joel kills him. Alerted by the gunshots, the Fireflies find Ethan's corpse and proceeded to search for and attempt to kill Joel.
Determined by the player, Joel evades/kills them and blocked off the West Wing access. On the top floor, Joel finds several recordings, one being the head surgeon's assessment of Ellie's immunity and two others recording Marlene's indecision and reluctance to kill the child she promised to look after. Joel eventually finds the surgery room as more Fireflies guarded the hallway leading to the operating room. After killing and/or evading them, Joel bursts into the operating room, where the doctors were surprised to find him.
The head surgeon tries to prevent Joel from taking an unconscious Ellie by blocking his way but is killed by Joel. Leaving the two assistants to their fate, Joel carries Ellie away as more Fireflies close in on him. He manages to get to the elevator and reach the parking garage but is confronted by Marlene. Marlene attempts to reason with him, asking how long Ellie can live safely without being eaten by Clickers or raped and murdered by hunters.
Joel disregards this, saying that it is not Marlene's choice to decide but unsure if it is what Ellie wants. Marlene allows him to live if he gives Ellie back to the Fireflies and slowly puts down her gun as a sign of trust while walking towards him. Joel hesitates for a few moments, before he shoots her with a hidden pistol. After he places Ellie in a car he walks back to Marlene, who pleads him to let her go but Joel kills her stating "you'd just come after her".
As Joel drives out of the city, Ellie wakes up, wondering what had happened. Joel answers that they'd found the Fireflies. He goes on to say that there were dozens of people who were immune like Ellie and the Fireflies were unable to develop a vaccine from them, to the point that they've stopped looking for a cure. Ellie sadly rests up while Joel takes them back home and apologizes. Jackson is the last chapter of the game, and starts off with Joel and Ellie in the car driving towards Tommy's settlement.
The road gets blocked and Joel and Ellie exit the vehicle, with the player controlling Ellie, and start walking in the woods. Joel remarks that Ellie and Sarah would have been great friends because the two are very similar. Once they get in view of the settlement Ellie admits she has survivors guilt for Riley's, Tess' and Sam's deaths and asks Joel if what happened in the hospital was true and for him to swear to her.
Joel lies, concluding I swear. The cutscene then ends with the camera capturing Ellie's face quietly responding Okay to Joel as the credits roll.

55:42 | The hardest part ain’t killing. It’s living with the reasons why you did.
In Spring 2034, we see Joel and Ellie entering Salt Lake City, Utah, where they're supposed to meet the Fireflies at St. Mary's Hospital. The two now have a much stronger bond since last Winter's events, but Joel notices how Ellie is still visually shaken by them, as she remains unusually quiet and distracted when he tries to engage her in a conversation.
They go past a highway filled with abandoned cars, another empty quarantine zone, and make their way through a bus station. There, Ellie spots something and runs off ahead of Joel. He catches up with her, discovering it to be numerous giraffes wandering around the now deserted city. As they stop for a moment to watch them, Joel hesitates.
He tells her that they don't have to do this, and if she wants they can just turn around, go back to Tommy's and start a new life. However, Ellie is determined to see the end of it, saying that after all they've been through, "it can't be for nothing". Underground Tunnel They go past a large number of medical tents, where Joel comments about in the first months of the infection, he had been part of a triage identical to this, surrounded by destroyed families.
Ellie then gives him the picture of him and Sarah, apologizing for stealing it from Maria back at the dam, which he takes and thanks her. They make their way through an underground tunnel, filled with infected, and after going past them, they reach a flooded area.
As they try to navigate it by staying on top of a number of abandoned vehicles, a bus collapses, making them go underwater. Ellie is knocked out as they are dragged by the violent current and is about to drown, but Joel grabs her and brings to the surface. Not breathing, he tries to perform CPR on her, as a Firefly soldier appears, ordering him to stand down. He ignores him, and is subsequently knocked unconscious.

26:34 | You don’t make it this far by being good. You make it by being necessary.
After completely clearing out the buildings, he and Ellie return to their original refuge. He discussed the philosophy that everything happens for a reason, with which Ellie disagreed. David decided to prove his theory by revealing that it was in fact his men who attacked Joel and Ellie at the university. A returning James overheard the conversation and held Ellie at gunpoint, but David demanded Ellie be given the medicine and set loose, and James reluctantly complied.
David sent his men to track Ellie with the hope that she would lead them to Joel. His men mentioned that they were under strict orders from David to keep her alive, but decided to ignore these orders when they found out from James that it was Joel who slaughtered half the raiders at the university. Overhearing their conversation, Ellie decided to lead them away from Joel, then double back to him.
She rode away from David's group on horseback, then escaped on foot after her horse was shot and killed. Eventually, David himself found her, grabbed her from behind, and choked her unconscious, claiming that he was “keeping her alive.” When Ellie regained consciousness she was in a small cell. She witnessed James chopping up a corpse on a table, and discovered that David and his group were cannibals.
Ellie was visibly disgusted and hostile toward David, calling him an “animal.” David pleaded to Ellie that he had her best interests in mind, and offered her a place in his group. He then affectionately touched Ellie's hand. Seizing her chance, she broke David's finger and attempted to grab his keys, but David slammed her against the cell bars and threatened her life. The next day, David and James arrived and pinned Ellie down onto the table attempting to slaughter her for food.
In the struggle, Ellie bit David's hand, which only infuriated him more. Just before David struck her with a butcher knife, Ellie exclaimed she was infected and stated that David was infected too. David was initially skeptical, but Ellie insisted that he should roll up her right sleeve and see for himself. Upon finding out she was telling the truth, James became frightened but David claimed it couldn’t be real because she would have already turned. As the two men argued, Ellie seized the butcher knife with her left hand and slashed James' throat, killing him.
David shot at Ellie as she ran, but hit one of the hanging bodies instead. Ellie escaped from the room with her switchblade. David organized a search party to look for Ellie and even taunted her in a demented tone as he traversed through the town. David eventually found Ellie in an old restaurant, struggling with her as she attempted to escape from his people out the back door and commenting that she was easy to track.
He knocked her down, taking her revolver, and held her at gunpoint. During their struggle a lantern had been shattered, and the fire distracted David long enough for Ellie to run and hide. As the restaurant was slowly engulfed in flames, he locked the exit and continued to taunt Ellie, telling her that she had nowhere to go and would need to take the keys from him if she wanted to leave. He stalked her throughout the restaurant, all the while mocking her and expressing his disappointment that she did not accept his offer to join the group.
Ellie continued to hide among the tables of the restaurant, trying to outmaneuver David and get the keys. After Ellie stabbed David from behind once with her switchblade, he threw her off and attempted to shoot her with his revolver, missing as she took cover. He then drew a machete and continued to stalk her, growing angrier and seemingly ignoring the bloody wound.
Ellie used her small size to her advantage and managed to get behind David to stab him twice more. In the ensuing struggle, David slammed Ellie onto a table, knocking her out before he passed out as well. David eventually regained consciousness and saw Ellie crawling towards his machete. Before she could reach it, David came behind her and kicked her repeatedly, telling her it was “OK to give up.”
After she refused, David kicked Ellie again, pinned her down and grabbed her by the throat. What his intentions were are unclear, as before he could act on them Ellie managed to seize the machete and slash his arm. David screamed once before Ellie began hacking him repeatedly in the face and neck. She only stopped when Joel finally found her and pulled her off.
30:55 | I used to count fireflies. Now I count bullets.
Ellie wakes up in a cage; she sees James cuts off a corpse's limbs for his group to eat. David comes in, and says that he doesn't want to kill her — he only wishes for her to join them. Now realizing his true intentions, she refuses to cooperate, breaking his finger to make a grab for his keys. Later, he and James hold her down on the table to kill her for food, and she tells them she's infected. Taking advantage of their distraction, she grabs David's knife, kills James, and runs out into a snowstorm.
Armed with only her switchblade, she goes to an abandoned restaurant while David tracks her. Holding the keys to her freedom, Ellie must sneak and catch David by surprise — while the building starts to catch fire and burn. After stabbing him several times, he panics and grabs her by her hair, slamming her into the ground. They both fall unconscious. Ellie wakes up first, and crawls to get his discarded machete.
As she gets close, he rushes over to kick her, taunting that she should just give up. When she struggles to move, he hits her again, pinning her down and nearly strangling her. She blindly grasps for the hilt of the machete, and slashes his arm. Caught unexpectedly, he screams and rolls off her. She repeatedly hacks at his face in a rage, until Joel arrives and pulls her off. Holding a crying Ellie in his arms, Joel consoles her and leads her away.
45:28 | You look at someone long enough, and you stop seeing a stranger.
It is Winter, and Ellie kills a rabbit with an arrow. She then spots a deer and hunts it down, hitting it with the bow a couple times before tracking its blood trail. It collapses near a barn on the outskirts of an abandoned coal mine. As she approaches it, two strangers appear, David and James. They offer to trade with her for the meat, and she says that if they have medicine, they can have the whole deer.
David asks her to come with them, but she refuses and sends James to get penicillin while Ellie holds David at gunpoint. They go inside a large warehouse to avoid the cold, as a large number of infected start to surround them. They hold their position for a while but are forced to run away, only to get cornered again. After they dispatch them, she sits down with David as he tells how a bunch of his men were killed a few weeks back by "a crazy man", a man who was traveling with a little girl.
Alarmed, she gets up and points the rifle at him as James arrives. David orders him to stand down and give her the medicine, and Ellie runs away back to an abandoned house, where Joel is unconscious and feverish. She gives him the medicine and lays down next to him. The next morning, Ellie wakes up hearing the bandits outside. She mounts Callus and rides off in order to get their attention, but they kill the horse, forcing her to hide in an abandoned resort. She makes her way to an inn, and as she tries to leave, David shows up behind her and chokes her until she passes out.
Joel wakes up, and as he goes outside to look for her, a group of remaining bandits starts to shoot him. He deals with them, and manage to capture two. He then proceeds to torture them for Ellie's whereabouts, and when one of them gives in, Joel kills them. Cabin Resort Ellie wakes up in a cage; she sees James cuts off a corpse's limbs for his group to eat.
David comes in, and says that he doesn't want to kill her — he only wishes for her to join them. Now realizing his true intentions, she refuses to cooperate, breaking his finger to make a grab for his keys.

36:09 | Sometimes I talk to the dead like they’re listening. But silence feels worse.
Joel and Ellie go around campus looking for the Science Building on horseback, which according to Tommy looks like a "giant mirror." Ellie names the horse Callus, since Joel forgot to ask Tommy the horse's name. As they search, Joel starts to share a bit more about his past, telling her about his childhood dream to be a singer and how he never got to attend college due to being a father so early, and talking to Ellie about football.
He goes off on his own at one point, passing through a dormitory filled with infected, in order to reach the generator that opened a locked gate. They start to realize how strange it is that the place is completely deserted and that they should have seen someone by now, since the only thing they encountered was a group of monkeys running around in a square near the dorms. He speculates optimistically that the large number of infected are used by the Fireflies as a defense mechanism, as Bill did.
Science Building As they enter the Science Building, they realize that the Fireflies had left in a hurry, for reasons unknown. Joel finds a recorder near a corpse of a Firefly scientist, and learns that they were using monkeys as test subjects, trying to study the effects of the Cordyceps Brain Infection in order to find a cure. The scientist, who had been instructed to kill the infected test subjects, instead believed they deserved to be free. While trying to let them out of their cages, he is bitten by one, subsequently passing the infection onto him. Listening to a scientist's recorder, they learn that the Fireflies have gone to Salt Lake City, Utah, to continue their research.
As soon as they discover this, a group of looters ambush them. Joel and Ellie make their way through the building, killing their attackers as they go. Joel is caught by surprise by one of them, when they burst through a door he opened. They struggle briefly, before Joel punches him — the looter, however, drags Joel down with him, and they both fall off the balcony. The looter dies on impact, but Joel is impaled by a piece of rebar sticking up from the ground. Ellie climbs down and helps him to his feet, and guides him towards the exit. Ellie is forced to protect the both of them, as Joel is incapacitated by pain, and extreme blood loss.
They manage to exit the building and, after Ellie shoots a looter who attempts to steal Callus, ride away from the university. Joel taking the reins, they get far enough for Ellie to assume they are safe. Suddenly, Joel slumps and falls off the horse, passing out. Ellie tries to wake him up, calling his name and asking him what she should do. The season ends with the screen cutting to black.
45:35 | We’re not heroes. We’re people who ran out of choices and kept going.
In the years following the outbreak, Tommy and Joel made their way to the Boston Quarantine Zone but the actions committed by the brothers in order to survive caused Tommy to suffer "nightmares from those years". Sickened by Joel's growing inhumane activities and the military's tyranny, he decided to join the Fireflies, after being convinced by Marlene. He was filled with hope that the world could get better, which led to an argument between him and Joel which ended with them parting ways, Tommy's last words to Joel being, "I don't ever want to see your goddamned face again."
He spent a long time with the Fireflies, even visiting the group's main research lab in the University of Eastern Colorado. Tommy eventually left the Fireflies after becoming disillusioned with their cause. Before he left, he informed Marlene she could rely on his brother if she was ever in need of assistance. He left a strong impression on her, causing her to remark years later "he was a good man". Tommy eventually reached Jackson County, where he helped to make it into a safe haven. He married a woman named Maria and they become the leaders of the settlement while trying to get the generator fixed.
The hydroelectric plant is under constant attack by bandits. For a few months Tommy traveled back to the brothers' hometown in Texas; most of their things were long gone, though he retrieved a slightly faded photo of Joel and Sarah at a soccer match. During the Fall of 2033, Joel and Ellie stumble upon a seemingly abandoned power plant in Jackson County, Wyoming while trying to find Tommy.
To their surprise, Tommy, Maria, and many of their men were trying to get the power plant up and running again to power their settlement electrically. Tommy greets his brother with open arms and welcomes him into the plant, introducing him to Maria. After showing Joel around and getting the power back on, Joel gives Tommy the information regarding Ellie's immunity to the CBI, expecting Tommy to heed his order to take over the delivery of Ellie. Due to leaving the Fireflies and their cause behind him and the danger of the journey, Tommy refuses to deliver Ellie to the group, realizing that Joel hasn't changed since he last saw him.
An argument ensues, in which Joel indirectly insults Tommy's community and the memories of their dark past resurface, leading to an enraged Joel shoving his brother, but they are interrupted by a bandit attack. Tommy, with help from Joel and some of his men, fends off the attackers. Tommy reconsiders his decision to take Ellie to the Fireflies' lab after seeing her interactions with Joel. Maria is understandably upset when Tommy tells her this, knowing that she may end up being a widow if Tommy made even one mistake.
Before he can leave with Ellie, she steals a horse and runs away. Joel and Tommy give chase, tracking her on horseback through the woods and arriving at a narrow pass with a couple of cabins before they are ambushed by the Bandits there. Tommy provides covering fire while Joel pushes up the pass towards the cabins and the duo wearily kill their attackers. Following the skirmish, the two continue to follow Ellie's trail and find her at an abandoned ranch. Realizing that the two likely have some talking to do, Tommy keeps watch downstairs.
After a while, he notices more bandits have tracked them to the ranch, so he runs upstairs to alert Joel and Ellie of the incoming danger. They fight their way out of the house, regrouping outside. After offering Ellie help onto her horse, Tommy and the others ride on horseback back to the dam, where Tommy shows them how he has turned Jackson County into a small fortified town, now with electricity, enabling the children to watch television.
Joel tells Tommy he will take Ellie and Tommy can go back to Maria proving himself to have changed. Tommy tells them that the Fireflies' lab is in the University of Eastern Colorado. As Joel is about to leave with Ellie, he offers them both sanctuary in his town, saying there is always a place for Joel. Joel doesn't answer, giving the impression of acceptance, and instead bids Tommy farewell before riding off. Months later, after Joel rescues Ellie from the Fireflies in Salt Lake City, they return to Jackson County, intending to live in Tommy's settlement.
When Joel does return, Tommy accepts them as he promised, giving them a room each but has them working on fortifying the defenses while they live there. He introduces Joel to a woman named Esther, Joel believing that he intends to have them "hitched".
19:12 | Hope’s a hell of a thing. Makes you do stupid, brave, reckless stuff.
In The Suburbs, a Hunter uses a mounted sniper rifle in an attempt to kill Joel, Ellie, Henry, and Sam. It takes between 1-4 shots to kill Joel depending on the difficulty and how much health Joel has before getting hit.. Joel kills the Hunter after making it to the house, using the nearby cars and houses as cover. Joel then uses the rifle to cover Ellie, Sam, and Henry from the oncoming waves of Hunters; a single hit taking out each one.
The Hunter's Humvee soon arrives and begins to close in on the trio as Joel shoots to no avail. The Humvee was finally destroyed when Joel managed to snipe the gunner as he was about to throw a Molotov cocktail, immolating the interior and sending the vehicle crashing into a house. The Military Sniper was then abandoned when a large group of Infected, attracted by the noise of the battle, began to swarm the neighborhood.
57:29 | The world ended before I got to be a kid. I learned how to be a fighter instead.
Henry was a character in The Last of Us. He appeared as a survivor from Hartford and the older brother of Sam, who he was fiercely protective of, to the point of underestimating his comprehension and capability in hostile situations. He openly chastised Sam if he believed he did something that would compromise their efficiency or, in particular, his safety.
He was voiced by Brandon Scott. Henry and his brother were among survivors who had left Hartford, after the military abandoned the quarantine zone. On the suggestion of someone within their group, they entered Pittsburgh to search for supplies and were subsequently ambushed by the Hunters within the city. Before they become separated, the group agreed to meet up near a radio tower just outside of the city limits.
For the next few days, Henry and Sam holed up in an office building near one the Hunters' lookouts. Henry and Sam were hiding out in an apartment building when they encountered Ellie and Joel. Assuming Joel was a Hunter, Henry attacked him, gaining a momentary upper hand before Ellie slashed him with her switchblade. Distracted, he was unable to defend against Joel’s counter and was thrown to the ground where Joel proceeded to punch him in the kidneys and the back of his neck. Ellie warned her partner about his younger brother, who had a gun trained on him. Henry assured his brother that they are not “the bad guys” and Joel backed off, allowing Henry to recover.
Winded, Henry complimented his strength. Joel bluntly stated that it was his intention to kill Henry in their altercation. The two introduced themselves and explained their situation. Henry suggested that they could help each other get out of the city, and though Joel initially rejected the idea, Ellie’s compliance changed his mind. Henry and Sam lead the two out of the apartment to their hideout; they took cover inside a toy store when the armored vehicle patrolling the street reappeared.
Though Henry was frustrated at the Hunter’s persistence, he noticed Sam fiddling with a toy. He reminded his brother that they take only what they need and lead them back to an office building where they had been staying. Once inside, Joel questioned how Henry planned to escape the city, asking why they have not yet left. Henry replied that they were waiting for the right opportunity. He lead Joel to a window overlooking the gate guarded by multiple Hunters. He explained that he and Sam planned on escaping through the gate once the primary detail was replaced by a skeleton crew at night.
Henry told Joel they were heading West to join the Fireflies. He became defensive when Joel asked why he was "dragging" his brother across the country on the possibility of finding the Fireflies. Joel defused Henry by revealing that he too and Ellie were also searching for the rebel group.
At ease, Henry explained to Joel his group planned to meet at the military radio tower just outside the city the following day. By nightfall, the four of them make their way to the lower level of the office building. Henry and Joel killed the first two men in the skeleton crew and while avoiding the spotlight searching for Clickers, they proceeded outside. Joel created a distraction by turning off the generator, drawing the men atop the bridge down onto the ground.
Henry, Joel and Ellie killed the group but not without drawing attention. They managed to pass through the doors and lock them but they were given no reprieve. Acting quickly, Henry and Sam scaled a ladder onto the top of a truck blocking their exit. However, no sooner had Henry lifted Ellie up onto the truck, the ladder broke, stopping Joel from reaching them. The Hunters rammed through the barricade doors with their Humvee. Prioritizing his brother's safety, Henry left Joel; Sam was shocked by his brother's actions but followed him.
The two made it somewhere past the bridge where they spotted Ellie and Joel drifting through the water. They saved them and waited for Joel to regain consciousness. When Joel awoke, he attacked Henry for leaving them and threatened to kill him. Henry remained calm and reminded Joel that his brother’s safety came first; he would have done the same to Henry if their situations were reversed.
After Joel calmed down, Henry assured Sam he was alright and the two began searching for a way off the beach. They come across a large storm drain which the group entered into an underground sewer system. While traveling through the sewers, they discovered a group of deceased survivors had attempted to make a living in the sewers but were inevitably overtaken by the cordyceps brain infection. Henry and the others initially evaded detection from the infected roaming the sewers — however, Joel triggered a jerry-rigged door that slammed shut and separated the group.
52:07 | I forget what her voice sounded like. Those are the days I hate myself most.
After martial law was declared and FEDRA took control of the government, Pittsburgh was designated as a military-controlled quarantine zone. Eventually, citizens became restless over a lack of rations, accusing FEDRA and the military of keeping food from them. A revolution was instigated by the Fireflies, causing many citizens to rise up and participate in fighting which lasted for around 14 months, with the rebels killing more soldiers and taking more parts of the city as time went on.
Eventually, the military forces of Pittsburgh were defeated and driven out of the zone, with the rebels massacring any soldiers and military supporters that remained. Anyone who refused to participate in the final battle was banished by the rebels. In addition to this, the rebels turned on the Firefly agitators who started the revolt in the first place, since the citizens thought that they did most of the fighting, and also wanted to remain independent from Firefly leadership.
After the uprising, the citizens established control over the city. The practice of killing outsiders came about after three teenagers were put on public trial for killing a family that wandered into the city. The leader, instead of punishing them, said that the teenagers had procured supplies and ordered the rest to follow their example. Several people quickly expressed outrage at this, but were killed for speaking out. Eventually, despite some hesitancy, hunting survivors became a common practice to Pittsburgh citizens. This is how the rebels became the Hunters.
Hunters refer to any survivors entering their city as "tourists". The hunters use this to their advantage by tricking tourists into thinking they are hurt. They then proceed to rob and kill them once they stop to help. Pittsburgh was abandoned by the military roughly 4-5 years before the events of the game, judging from the presence of skeletons. Joel and Ellie arrive in Pittsburgh by way of a pickup truck that Bill repaired for them. In order to pass through the city, Joel had to take a detour away from an old traffic jam. Right after the detour, they are immediately ambushed by hunters who ram the truck with a bus.
As a result, Joel crashes into a small grocery store and is forced to fight back. After escaping, they make their way through the buildings towards the Fort Duquesne Bridge, and come across the abandoned Hotel Grand with a strong Hunter presence. Players then have multiple options regarding how they tackle the hunters: stealthily take each enemy down one by one, run in guns blazing and start an all-out firefight, or sneak around the hostiles and not waste time or resources.
Joel and Ellie also snuck and/or fought their way through the Hunters and later their Humvee in the Financial District. Later, they run into Sam and Henry, members of a group of survivors who were fleeing Hartford and decided to take refuge in the city. After taking out the skeleton crew guarding the bridge, the group made their escape. Traveling through a sewer system that was formerly a safe settlement and now littered with Infected, the small group made it to a suburb outside of the city.
There, the Hunters again confronted the group with a military sniper rifle, and later the Humvee from before. The group successfully fends them off, but later was forced to flee from the horde of infected attracted by the sounds of the fight.

Much to Bill's dismay, Joel and Ellie arrive at his safe house in the town of Lincoln, disabling many of his traps and alerting an overwhelming swarm of the Infected to their presence in the process. Bill subdues both of them, fearful that they have been bitten, although Ellie manages to break free of her restraints and beats Bill with a pipe.
Joel quickly gets up and stops Ellie from causing further harm. After a brief argument, Joel asks Bill for a car, with Ellie reminding Bill about the favors he owes to Joel. Bill says he does not have a working car, but there are car parts located in another area of the town. Bill begins to sharpen his machete, sarcastically saying Joel can have his food too. Ellie insults Bill's waistline, and he threatens the teenager. Joel calms Ellie down and returns to Bill, insisting the favors Bill owes him are worth the effort. With Joel having asserted he isn't leaving until he gets a car, Bill agrees to put together a car for Joel and Ellie, but tells them that once it is done, he owes Joel no more favors.
Joel agrees to his terms. They head towards a church that Bill has converted into an armory. On the way, Bill questions Joel's need for a car and briefly trades insults with Ellie, something Joel tries to stop. While killing a trapped Runner, Bill asks where Tess is. Joel states that she is busy, leading Bill to think the pair have had a falling-out. After defeating more Infected, they reach the church. Bill sternly tells Ellie not to touch anything. While loading shotguns for him and Joel to use, Bill asks why Tess would allow Joel to accept such a suicidal mission.
When Joel responds that Tess was the one who convinced him, Bill reveals his disappointment; having believed Tess was smarter than such. Bill begins to tell Joel about his partner Frank, trying to hide his homosexuality while doing so, saying he had to look after him. He finishes by saying that caring for someone "is good for one thing - getting you killed". Before he says more, he sees Ellie touching his comics.
He shouts at her, reinforcing what he said before about not touching anything, but she replies with an obscene gesture, irritating him. He turns to Joel, saying she will get him killed. Having had enough, Joel interrupts him, asking if they can just "get on with it". Bill finishes loading the shotgun, tossing it to Joel and saying "Fine. Let's get on with it".
Before they leave, Bill gives Joel a Nail Bomb and teaches him how to make them. He tells him that they have to reach the local high school, as a military vehicle crashed there a while ago, with a new battery still inside. Bill jokes how he wanted to get it but decided against it, due to lots of Infected being near there, but "Fuck it. Joel needs a car". When they do reach the school, they find the battery in the truck is gone. With no other options, they force their way out the back of the school, having to kill a Bloater - the strongest of the Infected - to do so. They manage to reach a house where they take refuge.
Joel asks what the plan is but Bill replies that all their plans are gone, angrily insulting Tess while doing so. Joel goes to retaliate for Bill bringing up Tess, but Bill stops abruptly. Joel notices that there is a hanged corpse in the room. Joel asks if Bill knows the man. He does; its the body of Frank, Bill's former partner. He had hung himself after becoming infected, not wanting to turn into a monster. Despite trying not to let it show, Bill is saddened by his death. Joel finds a suicide note near Frank's body, in which Frank tells Bill that he hated his guts.
Bill is taken aback by this, but again does his best not to let it show. He throws the note away after reading it. They find a truck in Frank's garage which contains the stolen battery. He checks to see if it is working, finding the battery drained but the cells alive. Joel questions what he means; Bill replies that, if they get it started, the alternator will recharge the battery. Joel and Bill push it through the streets while Ellie tries to pop the clutch to get it working. She fails the first time, so Bill indirectly insults her.
He and Joel proceed to kill several Infected on the street but manage to make it to the top of a hill, where the truck actually starts to work. Hopping in the back, the pair signal Ellie to keep driving, since more Infected are on the way. They safely make it back to Bill's church. Bill makes Ellie stop the truck and goes to leave, Joel getting out to say goodbye. Both briefly remark that Ellie held her own against the Infected, but Bill still believes Joel will die soon. Before leaving, he gives Joel a siphon hose so he can obtain gas from abandoned cars.
Joel thanks him and expresses his sympathy for the loss of Frank. Bill asks if they're "square". Joel tells Bill that they are square; Bill no longer owes him anything. Bill then tells Joel to "get the fuck out of [his] town". Joel and Ellie do so, never seeing the man again.

In India, treasure hunter Chloe Frazer searches for the legendary tusk of Ganesh, the son of Hindu god Shiva, who lost the tusk while defending his father's temple. Chloe's own father was killed by bandits while searching for the tusk. Chloe slips past insurgents and meets up with mercenary Nadine Ross.
They sneak into the office of the insurgents' leader, Asav, who wants to use the tusk to rally India into a civil war. Chloe and Nadine steal a map pointing toward the tusk within the ancient Hoysala Empire and a disc that acts as a key. In India's Western Ghats, Chloe and Nadine follow the trail of several towers emblazoned with Hindu weapons: Ganesh's trident, Shiva's bow, and the axe of Parashurama, who used the axe to remove the tusk. The trail leads them to one of Hoysala's two capitals, Halebidu, whose last emperor left to be conquered by the Persians seemingly out of vanity.
They realise the emperor left a false trail; the tusk is at the larger capital, Belur. On the way there, they escape Asav and his men, but lose the disc. While spying on Asav's forces, Nadine sees her old enemy Sam Drake, brother of Chloe's old friend and former partner Nathan Drake; she realizes he is Asav's expert. When she expresses her intention to kill Sam, Chloe reveals she was working with him before he was kidnapped. Angry, Nadine separates from Chloe, but they make amends.
At Belur, they navigate several puzzles before being captured by Asav, who forces Chloe to use the disc to reveal the tusk. In the process, she discovers that Ganesh allowed Parashurama to cut off his tusk; as Shiva gave the axe to him, Ganesh did not want to shame his father by proving the axe useless. Asav triggers a trap and leaves Chloe, Nadine and Sam to drown. Chloe picks the locks on their handcuffs and they escape. Despite tensions between Nadine and Sam, the three chase after Asav to take back the tusk.
Nadine is enraged to find that Asav is working with Shoreline, the mercenary group she used to run. Asav trades the tusk to Orca, Nadine's former lieutenant, who now runs Shoreline. Chloe, Nadine and Sam down Orca's helicopter and learn that Asav traded the tusk for a bomb he plans to detonate in the capital and trigger civil war. Orca pulls a gun on Nadine, but Sam saves her, allowing her to shoot Orca dead. Commandeering a jeep, the three catch up to the train carrying the bomb.
The women board the train and fight through Asav's men. Chloe and Sam switch the tracks, redirecting the train away from the city. In the engine car, Chloe and Nadine fight Asav, whose leg becomes trapped under the bomb. They jump to safety before the train falls from a collapsed bridge and explodes, killing Asav. Chloe and Nadine decide to go into business, while Sam reacts with horror at their intentions to donate the valuable tusk to the Ministry of Culture.

39:11 | Nadine betrays Rafe and leaves him with Nate and Sam to die.
Years before the events of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Nate and Sam hunt for the treasure of infamous pirate Henry Avery, who plundered the equivalent of $400 million during the 1695 Gunsway heist. Alongside Rafe, the Drakes infiltrate a Panamanian jail to access the former cell of Avery's first mate, where Nate discovers a hollow St. Dismas cruciform.
Rafe impulsively murders the prison warden when he demands a cut, triggering a frantic escape which sees Sam shot by guards and Nate fleeing, believing his brother to be dead. Fifteen years later, Nate has retired with his wife Elena but misses the excitement of his old life. He is visited by Sam, who survived his injuries and has spent the intervening time incarcerated. He explains that he escaped with drug lord Hector Alcazar, who has demanded that Sam find Avery's treasure or be killed. Although reluctant to return to adventuring, Nate agrees to help Sam but tells Elena he has accepted a salvaging job.
Aided by Sully, the Drakes steal a duplicate Dismas cruciform from an illegal auction in Italy, bringing them into conflict with mercenary boss Nadine Ross and her employer, Rafe, who is still searching for Avery's treasure. A map inside the cruciform leads the Drakes to St. Dismas' cathedral in the Scottish Highlands. There, they discover a hidden temple wherein lies a map highlighting King's Bay in Madagascar.
In King's Bay, the Drakes and Sully learn that Avery, Thomas Tew, and ten other pirate captains pooled their treasures. Following clues to a tower in the city, Nate uncovers a map to Libertalia, a fabled pirate utopia founded by Avery and the other captains. The group returns to their hotel to find Elena waiting. Upset at Nate's deception and the appearance of his brother, whom Nate had never mentioned, Elena leaves. Nate refuses to abandon the quest and sends Sully after Elena.
The Drakes follow the map to an island and discover Libertalia. They find evidence of a civil war; the founders stole the city's treasure and moved it across the island to New Devon, an extravagant and well-fortified town built for them. En route, the brothers are cornered by Rafe, who reveals that he released Sam from jail two years earlier and that Sam's Alcazar story is a lie; Alcazar was killed in a shootout in Argentina six months prior. Deciding that he needs Sam, Rafe prepares to shoot Nate; Sam shields him, but Nate is knocked off a cliff and falls unconscious. Elena rescues Nate, who reveals his past: as teenagers, he and Sam discovered that their mother, a brilliant historian, had been researching Libertalia.
The boys decided to start new lives, changing their surname from Morgan to Drake to honor their mother's theory about Francis Drake's descendants. In New Devon, Nate and Elena learn that Libertalia descended into conflict over the treasure. Avery had Tew poison the other founders and they absconded with the hoard, but Tew betrayed Avery.
The group rescues Sam and convinces him to escape with them, but soon decides to pursue the treasure. Following Sam's trail, Nate finds Avery's treasure-laden ship, the Fancy in a cavern. Having already collected a large amount of treasure, Nadine refuses to risk more of Avery's traps, but Rafe coerces her by bribing her surviving men. Aboard the ship, Sam triggers a trap, trapping him beneath debris. Nate confronts Rafe and Nadine in the ship hold, where the skeletons of Avery and Tew lie, having killed each other over the treasure.
Nadine betrays Rafe and leaves him with Nate and Sam to die. Rafe challenges Nate to a sword fight, wanting to prove himself better. Nate drops a bundle of treasure on Rafe, killing him, and frees Sam. The pair return to Sully's plane, and the group escapes. Sam and Sully team up for a new job while Nate and Elena return home. Elena explains that Sam recovered gold and gave it to her. Realizing that they both need some adventure in their lives, she buys the salvage company for which Nate worked, installing Nate as the owner, and plans to revive her old exploration show. Years later, Nate and Elena have become successful salvagers.
After their teenage daughter Cassie (Kaitlyn Dever) discovers relics from their adventures, Nate decides to tell her their story.

40:17 | Nate gives chase and encounters more of Marlowe's men.
Two years after the events of the previous game, Nathan Drake (Nolan North) and Victor "Sully" Sullivan (Richard McGonagle) enter a pub in London to meet a man named Talbot (Robin Atkin Downes), who is interested in purchasing Nate's ring belonging to his ancestor Sir Francis Drake. The duo accuses Talbot of giving them counterfeit banknotes, and a fistfight ensues. Outside, they are subdued by Talbot's cohort, Charlie Cutter (Graham McTavish), and Talbot's employer, Katherine Marlowe (Rosalind Ayres), steals Drake's ring.
Cutter shoots Nate and Sully. A flashback shows that 20 years prior, the teenage Nate (Billy Unger) searches a museum in Cartagena, Colombia, for the ring. He sees Sully, then unknown to him, working with Marlowe to retrieve the ring. Although he steals Sully's wallet, the man recovers it, but Nate uses the ring on a museum artifact. He is almost shot by Marlowe's henchmen, but Sully rescues him and takes him on as his protege. In the present, Nate and Sully have survived; Cutter is, in fact, their ally, who worked with them to track down Marlowe. With the help of Chloe Frazer (Claudia Black), they trace Marlowe's car to an underground library.
They retrieve T. E. Lawrence's notebook and a map showing Francis Drake's secret voyage to Arabia, where he was commissioned by Queen Elizabeth I and John Dee to find the lost city of Ubar. Nate deduces that clues to Ubar's location lie in Crusader crypts in a French chateau and a Syrian citadel. He and Sully locate the abandoned chateau in France. They find one half of an amulet inside the crypt but are ambushed by Talbot and his men, who take the amulet and set the chateau on fire. Nate and Sully escape.
In Syria, Nate and Sully meet Chloe and Cutter, who have learned that Marlowe is the head of the same order to which Francis Drake belonged. The group finds the second crypt and the other half of the amulet, revealing the location of the next clue, in Yemen. As they escape Marlowe's men, Cutter breaks his leg. He and Chloe are forced to abandon the quest. In Yemen, Nate's estranged wife Elena Fisher (Emily Rose) helps them locate an underground tomb, where they discover the location of Ubar in the vast Rub' al Khali desert. Nate is shot with a hallucinogenic dart and captured by Marlowe and Talbot.
Marlowe has accumulated documents concerning Nate's childhood; Nate changed his surname from Morgan to Drake while growing up in an orphanage after his mother killed herself, and his father abandoned him. Marlowe threatens Nate for the Ubar location. When Talbot learns of Sully's location, Nate escapes and chases Talbot through the city. He is captured by Rameses, a pirate working for Marlowe, who interrogates him for information about Iram of the Pillars and who claims to have captured Sully. Nate escapes and searches for Sully on the pirates' captured cruise ship.
He discovers that Rameses lied about having Sully and detonates a grenade, sinking the ship. Nate escapes, and Rameses drowns. Nate is washed ashore in Yemen. He reunites with Elena, who informs him that Sully was captured by Marlowe's men and forced to lead them to Ubar. Nate sneaks onto a cargo plane due to airdrop supplies to Marlowe's convoy but is discovered, and a shootout ensues, culminating in an explosion that destroys the plane.
He deploys a cargo pallet parachute and lands in the desert. Nate wanders in the desert, hallucinating from thirst. He is rescued by a troop led by a Bedouin, Salim (TJ Ramini). Salim explains that Ubar was doomed by King Solomon thousands of years ago when he imprisoned evil Djinn in a brass vessel and cast it into the heart of the city. Salim and Nate destroy Marlowe's convoy and rescue Sully. Nate and Sully lose Salim in a sand storm but eventually find and open the gate to Ubar.
In Ubar, Nate drinks from a water fountain. Talbot appears with Marlowe and shoots Sully, killing him. Furious, Nate gives chase and encounters more of Marlowe's men, who have been possessed by the Djinn. He experiences vivid hallucinations and comes round, realizing he had a nightmare in which Sully was killed. Nate realizes that King Solomon cast the vessel containing hallucinogenic minerals into the well beneath Ubar, tainting the water supply and thus causing Nate to hallucinate.
The vessel is what Queen Elizabeth sent Francis Drake to find, but after learning the real reason behind his quest, Drake abandoned his mission - he then lied to the Queen on returning to London, thus the game's subtitle.

With the help of Chloe Frazer (Claudia Black), they trace Marlowe's car to an underground library.
They retrieve T. E. Lawrence's notebook and a map showing Francis Drake's secret voyage to Arabia, where he was commissioned by Queen Elizabeth I and John Dee to find the lost city of Ubar. Nate deduces that clues to Ubar's location lie in Crusader crypts in a French chateau and a Syrian citadel. He and Sully locate the abandoned chateau in France. They find one half of an amulet inside the crypt but are ambushed by Talbot and his men, who take the amulet and set the chateau on fire. Nate and Sully escape.
In Syria, Nate and Sully meet Chloe and Cutter, who have learned that Marlowe is the head of the same order to which Francis Drake belonged. The group finds the second crypt and the other half of the amulet, revealing the location of the next clue, in Yemen. As they escape Marlowe's men, Cutter breaks his leg. He and Chloe are forced to abandon the quest. In Yemen, Nate's estranged wife Elena Fisher (Emily Rose) helps them locate an underground tomb, where they discover the location of Ubar in the vast Rub' al Khali desert. Nate is shot with a hallucinogenic dart and captured by Marlowe and Talbot.
Marlowe has accumulated documents concerning Nate's childhood; Nate changed his surname from Morgan to Drake while growing up in an orphanage after his mother killed herself, and his father abandoned him. Marlowe threatens Nate for the Ubar location. When Talbot learns of Sully's location, Nate escapes and chases Talbot through the city. He is captured by Rameses, a pirate working for Marlowe, who interrogates him for information about Iram of the Pillars and who claims to have captured Sully. Nate escapes and searches for Sully on the pirates' captured cruise ship.
He discovers that Rameses lied about having Sully and detonates a grenade, sinking the ship. Nate escapes, and Rameses drowns. Nate is washed ashore in Yemen. He reunites with Elena, who informs him that Sully was captured by Marlowe's men and forced to lead them to Ubar. Nate sneaks onto a cargo plane due to airdrop supplies to Marlowe's convoy but is discovered, and a shootout ensues, culminating in an explosion that destroys the plane.
He deploys a cargo pallet parachute and lands in the desert. Nate wanders in the desert, hallucinating from thirst. He is rescued by a troop led by a Bedouin, Salim (TJ Ramini). Salim explains that Ubar was doomed by King Solomon thousands of years ago when he imprisoned evil Djinn in a brass vessel and cast it into the heart of the city. Salim and Nate destroy Marlowe's convoy and rescue Sully. Nate and Sully lose Salim in a sand storm but eventually find and open the gate to Ubar.
In Ubar, Nate drinks from a water fountain. Talbot appears with Marlowe and shoots Sully, killing him. Furious, Nate gives chase and encounters more of Marlowe's men, who have been possessed by the Djinn. He experiences vivid hallucinations and comes round, realizing he had a nightmare in which Sully was killed. Nate realizes that King Solomon cast the vessel containing hallucinogenic minerals into the well beneath Ubar, tainting the water supply and thus causing Nate to hallucinate.
The vessel is what Queen Elizabeth sent Francis Drake to find, but after learning the real reason behind his quest, Drake abandoned his mission - he then lied to the Queen on returning to London, thus the game's subtitle.

6:23 | Talbot takes the amulet and sets the chateau on fire.
Two years after the events of the previous game, Nathan Drake (Nolan North) and Victor "Sully" Sullivan (Richard McGonagle) enter a pub in London to meet a man named Talbot (Robin Atkin Downes), who is interested in purchasing Nate's ring belonging to his ancestor Sir Francis Drake. The duo accuses Talbot of giving them counterfeit banknotes, and a fistfight ensues. Outside, they are subdued by Talbot's cohort, Charlie Cutter (Graham McTavish), and Talbot's employer, Katherine Marlowe (Rosalind Ayres), steals Drake's ring.
Cutter shoots Nate and Sully. A flashback shows that 20 years prior, the teenage Nate (Billy Unger) searches a museum in Cartagena, Colombia, for the ring. He sees Sully, then unknown to him, working with Marlowe to retrieve the ring. Although he steals Sully's wallet, the man recovers it, but Nate uses the ring on a museum artifact. He is almost shot by Marlowe's henchmen, but Sully rescues him and takes him on as his protege.

6:09 | As the city crumbles, Nate and Chloe carry Elena to safety.
Two years after the events of the first game, explorer Nathan Drake (Nolan North) is approached by his former associate Harry Flynn (Steve Valentine) and Flynn's girlfriend Chloe Frazer (Claudia Black) to help steal a Mongolian oil lamp connected to Marco Polo's doomed 1292 voyage from China. The group plans to cheat Flynn's client and take Polo's treasure for themselves. Unbeknownst to Flynn, Chloe convinces Nate, her ex-lover, to leave with her once they get their shares.
Nate and Flynn break into a museum in Istanbul and find the lamp. It contains a map and flammable resin that illuminates a message, revealing that Polo's fleet was shipwrecked in Borneo and that it was carrying the Cintamani Stone, a massive sapphire from the fabled city of Shambhala. Seizing the map, Flynn double-crosses Nate, leaving him to be arrested. Three months later, Chloe helps free Nate with his longtime friend Victor Sullivan (Richard McGonagle).
She reveals that Flynn is working for Zoran Lazarević (Graham McTavish), a Serbian war criminal seeking the stone. Nate and Sully infiltrate Lazarević's camp in Borneo, with Chloe in Lazarević's group as a mole. Nate discovers that the stone never left Shambhala, and locates the temple where Polo's crew slaughtered each other. Nate finds a phurba and a map with a message that its carrier will gain passage to Shambhala through a temple located in Nepal.
Nate and Sully escape after being found by Flynn and his men. Sully backs out, so Nate and Chloe continue to Nepal, which has been ravaged by Lazarević's mercenaries in search of the temple. They encounter Nate's ex-girlfriend journalist Elena Fisher (Emily Rose) and cameraman Jeff (Gregory Myhre), tracking Lazarević. At the temple, Nate and Chloe use the phurba as a key to uncover Shambhala's location in the Himalayas.
After Jeff is shot in an ambush, Chloe insists on abandoning him; Nate and Elena help him but are caught by Lazarević. Chloe switches sides to maintain her cover while Lazarević kills Jeff and gets the Shambhala location from Nate, who escapes with Elena. Elena is skeptical about helping Chloe but helps Nate catch up to Lazarević's train via a stolen jeep. Nate fights through the train to find Chloe, but she refuses to leave with him after he compromised their mission to help Jeff and Elena.
Flynn arrives and shoots Nate. Cornered, Nate causes an explosion that derails the train over a cliff. He escapes the hanging train car, recovers the phurba, and falls unconscious. A Tibetan Sherpa, Tenzin (Pema Dhondup), brings Nate to his village and helps him recover. Nate reunites with Elena and is introduced to an old German explorer, Karl Schäfer (René Auberjonois).
Nate insists that he has given up, but Schäfer is resolute, maintaining that Lazarevic must be stopped, at all costs. Schäfer sends him and Tenzin after the remains of Schäfer's failed expedition for the stone decades ago. Nate and Tenzin travel through ice caves, fighting off strange monsters, assumed to be Yeti, on their way to an ancient temple. They discover that Schäfer was working for the Nazi Ahnenerbe and killed his men to protect the world from the Cintamani Stone.
They return to fight off an attack on the village by Lazarević's men, but Schäfer is kidnapped, and the phurba stolen. Elena and Nate follow Lazarević's convoy to a monastery, where the mortally wounded Schäfer warns Nate to destroy the stone before Lazarević can obtain its power. Nate reconciles with Chloe and reacquires the phurba. He and Elena unlock the secret passage to Shambhala underneath the monastery, but Lazarević corners them.
With Chloe's cover blown, Lazarević threatens her and Elena, forcing Nate and Flynn to help open the pathway to Shambala. The monsters attack but are killed by Lazarević, who reveals them as Shambala's disguised human guardians. After the gate is opened, more guardians attack, allowing Nate, Elena, and Chloe to escape. After making their way through the city to the main shrine, the group discovers that the Cintamani Stone is a giant amber derived, along with the flammable resin, from the sap of an ancient tree of life in the center of the city.
It makes the drinker nearly invincible, explaining the mutated guardians and Polo's doomed crew. Flynn, left for dead by Lazarević for his failures, ambushes them in a suicide attack, seriously wounding Elena. Nate leaves her in Chloe's care and confronts Lazarević at the base of the tree. Lazarević drinks the tree sap, becoming nearly invincible. By shooting explosive pockets of resin near Lazarević, Nate defeats him and leaves him to be killed by the guardians.
As the city crumbles under the collapse of the tree and the exploding resin, Nate and Chloe carry Elena to safety. In the village, Chloe counsels Nate to tell Elena that he loves her, before bidding him farewell. Sully leaves a recovering Elena to Nate. The couple pays their respects at a memorial for Schäfer and kiss.
