Episode 3 of HBO's The Last of Us has left fans emotionally spent

Well, it’s been an emotionally devastating week for fans of HBO’s The Last of Us, as episode 3 was another tear-jerker.

Before we go into further details: consider this your official spoiler warning. If you’ve not seen the show yet, do so before reading on – yes, that includes those who have played The Last of Us dozens of times because there are some big-time story changes in the show.

Alright, so the third episode was about Bill (played by Nick Offerman), a paranoid survivalist who also happens to be gay. Anyone that’s played The Last of Us Part 1 will remember the chapter where Joel and Ellie meet Frank – it’s a fairly brief encounter that only goes a little into Bill’s backstory. However, the show sure does – and we learn all about the fate of Bill’s partner Frank. 

Without delving too far into spoilers, it’s a ridiculously emotional episode. Don’t believe us? Then look no further than everyone going wild on Twitter – we’ve put together a list of the best reactions below.
