The Final of Us launched a brand new obvious villain in episode 4 within the type of Kathleen (Melanie Lynskey), a revolutionary chief primarily based in Missouri’s Kansas Metropolis (i.e. the place the place Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) are at the moment trapped).
Kathleen will return in episode 5, and in response to the teaser above, it seems just like the stakes are shortly ramping up, with the very actual human menace solely being added to by the lurching presence of what seems to be a brand new kind of Contaminated.
The excellent news? Episode 5 is streaming early, so we can’t have to attend too lengthy.
The Final of Us episode 5 premieres Friday at 9 p.m. on HBO Max.
