Top 5 Details in ‘The Last of Us’ Episode 7 That That Even Eagle Eyed Viewers Might Have Missed

The Last of Us series is full of surprises. Every episode of this series has featured a number of Easter eggs and references to the games.

For seasoned fans, these references and Easter eggs might be a reminder of something very exciting. For newcomers, these things are no more than some oddly placed objects. Yet they do not mind sharing their enthusiasm and knowing about these references. So here we list the Top 5 details and references that you might have missed in the Last of Us episode 7!

Ellie and Riley’s 1v1 fighting match

In this episode, while exploring the mall, Riley and Ellie come across a bunch of arcade cabinets, and they instantly start dueling against each other in a Mortal Kombat cabinet. This is not a completely original thing. In fact, it’s a reference to the game.

In the game, these two friends actually do not play Mortal Kombat II but a game highly referencing it named The Turning.

Etta James “I got you, babe”

Around the endpoint of this episode, Ellie and Riley play the song ‘I Got You, Babe,’ by Etta James. What people might not have noticed is the fact that this scene was foreshadowed at the very beginning of this episode.

We can clearly see an Etta James cassette in Ellie’s room, showing her as a fan.

A beast and a fool

At one point Ellie and Riley grab a couple of Halloween masks and wear them, just for the sake of having fun. Those who have played the DLC before coming to the series would know that these masks are the same as the ones these two wear in the game.

A fictional movie poster

In the game Dawn of the Wolf is a big deal. Joel even tells Ellie that he watched this movie once. In fact, his daughter was such a fan of this movie they had this poster in their home too. This poster was spotted in this episode, but no one really talks about it.

Captain Kwong and his love for Naughty Dogs

Naughty Dogs are the developers of these games, and everyone knows it by now. What they might not know is that their logo consists of a paw. That paw can be spotted on Captain Kwong’s keychain. We wonder if he used to play Uncharted games before the apocalypse hit.
