Dina’s The Last Of Us Season 2 Episode 5 Monologue, Explained By Isabela Merced

Leave Seattle and go to your own way if you don’t see the second season, episode 5 of “The Last of Us”, entitled “Feel Her Love”. The spoilers are waiting!

In the latest episode of “The Last of Us”, we learn a lot about Dina, the central character of Isabella Mercyd. Despite living at the end of the full world, Dina tends to find dark humor and lightness in the worst situations, which represents a blatant contradiction with the intense intense Eli (Bella Ramsey), our best friend has turned into his lover. In the movie “Feel Love”, the fifth episode of the second season, we learn what happened to the entire DINA family … which is Terrifying. At the age of eight, Dina returned to her family’s home to find that Ryder (meaning a human being, not a coma) slaughtered her mother and sister, so Dina killed him, which represents “the first killing.” Dina says to Elie, “Was this a difference if my family was harmed first?” For both of them, the answer does not matter; Dina and Eli understands the innate need for revenge (the two coincided with them to be chased by Abi Kaitlein Diver, who killed Elie Joel’s father, a major character played by Pedro Pascal).

Keep in mind that both Eli and Dina were born during the Cordesis infection, so they do not know a world before the injured zombies wandered on the ground; As we also know, “another of us” focuses on the terrible things that humans do for each other while They are also fighting those injured zombies. Dina Eli also tells, for this reason you will help kill Abe, and Dina provides all this information Very quietly. In an interview with ELLE, Mergeed discussed the thinking process behind her delivery.

“What I thought was important in this scene is that Dina received her monologue in an indifferent manner,” Mercyid said. “It won’t be a microdrami. It was very similar to,” I know how it was, but this is what things are. “

“I think Dina is playing in the idea of” good good and bad bad things; There is no gray area; Either we look for justice or not regret, then we regret her on the rest of our lives. “It is really consistent with the approach of the rest of the characters in the loss, shock and sadness,” Mercyid continued. “I thought it was important for us to prove that it is not high and strong above the rest of the characters simply because it looks the same as the consumer in her relationship with Eli. She needed to show her inability to move forward unless she seeks” justice. “

Isabella Mercyide continued this thinking train by saying that although there is a contrast between Dina and Eli, they understand each other at the primitive level … and therefore, they are able to maintain the level of each other. “Moreover, I think the scene proves what it is for Elie,” Mercyid said of the scene that I told Elie about the first killing. “One of my favorite moments in this entire scene is when Bella put her hand on my cheek, and suddenly she sees tension raises me – and we return. It is almost what she was absorbing in her grief and containers at some point, and then, each of Eli satisfies her.

DINA is a “new” character in the television adaptation of “The Last of Us” – it’s a central game in the rioted dog game “The Last of Us Part II”, so the players were aware of it for a long time – and because it is from my money, Merced has made a real task in building Dina Brick to some extent to any kind of feeling that it was part of the full offer. Part of that is the darkness of a dark religion of humor – which provides, again, contradict the intensity of Eli. Nevertheless, the series is doing its best to show it as a huge fighter; Like Eli, she can easily send a room full of Cordyceps, incredibly believed, despite the behavior of rays. Mercyid said, this is what you really love in Dina.

“Most people in the room in the room are often more appreciated,” Mercyid said. “I think this is what makes a very wonderful religion in my eyes: it’s the same powerful and perhaps terrifying like Eli, but it revolves around it in a different way. I think she plays with those who want people, while Eli does not care about that.”

There is one big thing that can prevent Dina from seeing Elie’s endeavor to take revenge to the end,; As we learned in the fourth episode, “The First Day”, she is carrying a Mazino child after ending their external relationship. It is clear that, knowing that it is a pregnant woman who changes the perspective of an entire religion, especially since there is no discussion of not carrying the child in the range. So what is Isabella Mercyid in the view of Dina – especially when it comes to Elie’s endeavor to kill Abe – taking into account this?

“She is terrified at first, then I think she is going to accept,” Mercyid said of Dina’s mentality. “This is also why it is really emotional in the scene of the music store [in episode 4]. Many of this is children’s hormones, but they also imagine in the future with Eli and what it can look like. Then he passes through all these experiences close to death, and in her awareness of her love for Elie, she understands how much … when people are like people, “I did not think I wanted a child, but when I met my partner, suddenly I knew that I did not want a child without them.” Perhaps the only piece in which Dina was missing was that security from Eli, and that she will not do it on her own. And if they can overcome this task together, they can overcome a child, for sure. Raising a child, it will be easy to work compared to the landing of a full army! “

However, despite Dina’s clear love for Elie – who is expressly expressed for the first time in “feeling her love” – ​​the knowledge that she will undoubtedly begin to influence Dina.
