Having finally grown to love Ellie like a daughter, though, Joel isn't about to let that happen. He shoots his way through the hospital to rescue her, killing everyone in his path and then lying to Ellie about what really happened by telling her that raiders attacked the hospital. There are others like her, Joel says, but the doctors were unable to find a cure.

The problem? As we know, Ellie is a sharp kid. She clearly detects that something about Joel's story is off. So in the final scene of the season, she confronts him directly.

"Swear to me," says Ellie. "Swear to me that everything you said about the Fireflies is true."

"I swear," responds Joel.

And Ellie's answer, which follows a very long stretch of silence and an incredibly hard-to-read facial expression?

"OK."

Does Ellie know Joel is lying?
Ellie's reaction to Joel's story is hard to read. When he first tells her his version of events she's lying in the backseat of his car, having just woken up. As he finishes the story she rolls over and turns her back on him, but it's not clear if she's doing that because she's so upset by the news, or because she doesn't believe him.
