In the lean “Look For The Light,” Joel makes a tragic decision
Relaxing for the moment, Joel and Ellie discuss their destination, the Firefly science hub where doctors can study why Ellie is immune to infection, possibly leading to the creation of a vaccine. Joel, feeling a presentiment of losing her, floats the option of not continuing, of going back to“After all we’ve been through. Everything I’ve done. It can’t be for nothing,” Ellie replies evenly. “I know you mean well. I know you want to protect me; you have.
As they pass long-abandoned Army medical tents, Joel admits to Ellie that he spent time in a similar one in the early days of the outbreak. It was a bullet graze to his temple. That leads to the confession that after Sarah was killed, he attempted suicide. It’s interesting to see the mix of sympathy and detachment Ellie greets this news with. She tells Joel she’s happy he “missed” shooting himself in the head. But there’s something held back.
Joel regains consciousness in the Firefly hospital. Marlene is there. She marvels that they made it all the way across the country. She herself lost several men, bodyguards, along the way. Joel demands to see Ellie and is told she’s being prepped for surgery. “Our doctor thinks the Cordyceps in Ellie has grown with her since birth,” Marlene explains grimly. “It produces a kind of chemical messenger. It makes normal Cordyceps think that she’s Cordyceps; that’s why she’s immune.
“Genuine tragedy is a case not of right against wrong but of right against right,” the German philosopher Hegel wrote. “Two equally justified, ethical principles embodied in people of unchangeable will.” In that sense,becomes pure tragedy as Joel, possessed by a father’s love, goes on a bloody rampage through the hospital in search of his baby girl. Joel cannot let her die, even if it’s for the greater good. He’d rather the future burn.
