Bill and Frank Episode Divided Viewers; Will The Last of Us Season 2 Also Have a Special Episode? The story of Bill and Frank presented in the third episode of The Last of Us has gained considerable popularity, and the episode moved many viewers. Will we also see an episode departing from the main story in the show's second season? The creators explain. newsAleksandra Wosz17 July 2023 Source: The Last of Us; Craig Mazin i Neil Druckmann; HBO; 2023i DISCLAIMER:Text contains spoilers related to The Last of Us TV. The third episode of the first season of The Last of Us focused on the feelings between the main character's friends: Bill (Nick Offerman) and Frank (Murray Bartlett). The episode divided the fans, some of whom accused the developers of straying too far from Joel and Ellie's story. Enthusiasts of the adapted game pointed out the show's inconsistency with the original. A third group, on the other hand, delighted with the episode and the love plot presented in it.

However, despite such varied comments on the episode, the story of the lovers gained a lot of popularity. So one might assume that also in the second season of HBO's show, the creators will opt for a similar treatment. They see it quite differently, however. During an interview with Deadline Craig Mazin - co-creator of The Last of Us - confessed that the second season of the show will not include a special episode similar to the one that told the story of Bill and Frank. The creators do not want to and will not focus again on the aforementioned storyline, preferring to address other new issues. "For example, we will not see another special episode with Bill and Frank, we won't be squeezing the last juices [from the story - ed. note]. When we do something we think is beautiful, we let it be what it is, and find other beautiful things to do." Such a decision should not come as a surprise, because if the show is to capture the spirit of The Last of Us: Part II, it should focus on a comprehensive storyline. Returning to past, secondary stories could be an attempt to recreate the success of the first season's episode. While we will have to wait a little longer for the second season, the first season of The Last of Us is available on HBO Max.
