I may have missed it but from what I remember he only put the crushed up tablets in 1 wine glass? He poured both glasses at the same time?
Also how do they still have wine after all those years, it would have been long gone if it was me!
Great episode though.

He put it in the bottle as well before serving it

Bill commented about putting pills in the wine bottle itself, there was also a wine shop near them in the fenced off compound, which I guess had hundreds of bottles, would last most people a significant length of time unless your an alchoholic.

I can't remember the dates, I think it's September when Joel arrives at Bills town?
And the letter was written August 29th.

Did they date it exactly? Joel noticed the flowers outside were wilting and knew something was up.

That was a pinnacle moment in the game and sets the standard for a lot of things - They can't change it but given how much detail has been put in to the few eps so far I imagine they will amplify it for TV quite a bit which is the interesting part.

The last episode is on the 13th March, perfectly times as the remake game is out on PC start of March. What a brilliant transition, finish season 1 whilst starting through the remake on PC.
 
I really liked the ep. I think they made the most of that story intentionally to distance themselves from shows like TWD etc. If it was just more creep-around-hide-from-monsters-then-a-bit-of-story then people would be dismissing it very quickly as a TWD clone. I thought TLOU game was well known for it's emotional arc and storytelling right? So they are doing that well, here for the show.

On the plus (?) side my girlfriend was in tears a couple of times. This might be the ep that persuades her it's not a zombie show and actually worth getting involved in. I think she likes it but doesn't want to admit it. Maybe :p
 
Loved it, never played the game so I hadn't heard of either of them, like some others I fully expected Bill to get something smashed over his head when playing the piano, so glad it went the way it did.

On another note I didn't even realise it was a longer episode until I looked at the timer at the end.

As others have said I never got why she slashed the zombie, maybe to see if it felt pain? I also never got why a survivalist would be in the middle of the road with all that cover around him and a scoped rifle...crazy.

Cant wait for next week, enjoying this so much more than anything else on telly right now.

Sorry I didn't realise, thought it was spoilers from the game which I know nothing about anyway. I was talking about the recently aired episode which I guess some may not have watched yet.
