Elsewhere, while waiting for Tommy to turn up at the rendezvous point, Ellie and Jesse intercept a WLF radio call about a sniper, who has some WLF members trapped. Jesse believes it’s Tommy so they pursue the source of the gunshots.  But while searching for Tommy, Ellie sees the city aquarium and ferris wheel and splits from Jesse to commandeer a motorboat to travel there, where she believes Abby is located based on information from Nora. But Ellie is thrown from the boat as the storm waves hit the boat. She manages to swim to a nearby Island that is the focus of the WLF’s operations and home to the Seraphytes. After barely surviving an encounter with a group of Seraphites, Ellie enters the aquarium and finds Owen and a pregnant Mel. She holds them at gunpoint and demands further information on Abby's whereabouts.  When Owen grabs a gun, Ellie fatally shoots him. But the bullet also strikes Mel, who begs Ellie to deliver her baby as she dies. But Ellie is unable to save Mel’s baby and she is rescued from the aquarium by Jesse and Tommy and they return to the theatre.  Abby ambushes them at the theatre, killing Jesse, and holding Ellie and Tommy at gunpoint. As Ellie desperately pleads with Abby to release Tommy and take her, she reveals that she was the immune girl that Joel had killed for, as Abby processes this information she turns the gun on Ellie and a gunshot rings out across the theatre.  Three days earlier, Manny wakes up Abby, informing her that Isaac has summoned them.
