Script 대본 Roteiro Guion Сценарій


Joel: Stay there.

Ellie: What the fuck?

Joel: Bill? Frank?

Joel: You stay there. You hear anything, you see anything, yell.


Ellie: It's from Bill. "To whomever but probably Joel." I figured I fell under "whomever." It came with this.

Joel: So they're dead?

Ellie: Mm-hmm.


Joel: Show me your arm.

Joel: I just finished making a truck battery. It's charging right now.

Ellie: Okay.

Joel: And I have a brother out in Wyoming. He's in some kind of trouble, and I'm heading out there to find him. He used to be a Firefly. And my guess is he knows where some of them are out there. Maybe they can get you to wherever this lab is.
