The Last Of Us
Warning: This article contains spoilers forThe Last of Us Part II.
Ellie goes to Seattle and spends three days relentlessly hunting down Abby to avenge Joel.
But then, Abby shows up, wanting her own revenge for the friends Ellie killed.
The player then goes through the same three days all over again.
It rounds Abby out as a three-dimensional human being, and now, the show can do the same.
The player spends three days singularly focused on finding Abby and making her pay for killing Joel.

Its the exact same reason Ellie wants to kill Abby herself.
Up to that point, Abby has been a faceless enemy that both Ellie and the player wish dead.
But after that revelation,this faceless enemy suddenly has a face and a sympathetic motivation.

Whereas Ellies story is a revenge story, Abbys is a redemption story.
To really capture those parallels,Abby needs as much screen time as Ellie.
The Last of Usseason 3 is already in development.
It makes sense to give each of these sections their own season.
