** After two decades of extensive firearm usage, Joel has gone partially deaf in his right ear (something that Ellie pointed out). Even after teaching Ellie how to use a pistol, Joel advises her to stick to using a knife because of this so she could keep her hearing.
** Joel's a WalkingArmory in the game, capable of holding a total of nine guns in his backpack but the series averts this. Like with the Assault Rifle in the previous episode, Joel is only capable of holding one long gun and he chose a hunting rifle since its ammunition is easier to find.

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Kathleen needs the doctor's medical skills, so he's untouchable in spite of having betrayed her. However, after her son dies, Kathleen realizes that the doctor can't save the one person she had left in her life, so she promptly kills him.

When Kathleen has the community's only doctor at her mercy and is threatening him at gunpoint for selling out their neighbors to FEDRA, he insists that Kathleen can't afford to kill him. He's right. Then Kathleen goes outside and finds that her son is mortally wounded. Now realizing that the doctor can't save the one thing she had left to care about, she calmly goes back and executes him.

* SelfDeprecation: A subtle example. After Joel teaches Ellie how to hold a pistol, she initially [[PantsPositiveSafety puts it in the back of her pants]]. Joel, who has a proper holster, immediately tells her not to do this, as she might shoot her ass if she does. In the game, this is exactly how Joel stored his pistol when not using it. Even the holster upgrade was for his "secondary" pistol slot.
