🚨 There are MASSIVE — and I mean MASSIVE — spoilers ahead for The Last of Us Episode 8! 🚨
I think I speak for everyone when I say that The Last of Us Episode 8 — titled "When We Are in Need" and directed by Ali Abbasi and written by Craig Mazin — was genuinely the most terrifying hour of TV this show has given us so far.
In this week's episode, Ellie (Bella Ramsey) encounters David (Scott Shepherd), a terrifying preacher who is leading a group of survivors. After David reveals that Ellie and Joel (Pedro Pascal) killed a member of his group, he kidnaps Ellie. This all leads to the terrifying realization that David is feeding his followers human meat in order for them to survive.
This section of The Last of Us Part 1 video game is also the most terrifying, so it's no surprise that it made for an on-the-edge-of-your-seat hour of television.
Alongside Scott's eerie portrayal of David, Troy Baker, who voiced and did the motion capture performance for Joel in the video games, appeared in this week's episode as James, one of David's followers.
So to express their love for (and genuine fear of) this latest episode, fans — like me — and the cast took to Twitter to make some amazing jokes and memes, and simply give some A+ commentary. Here's a look at some of the best tweets about The Last of Us Episode 8:

my favorite comments about this scene are neil’s, “it became more interesting that joel saves ellie emotionally & NOT physically.” , “david’s face becomes the punching bag. this is for riley, this is for tess, this is for sam, this is for henry, this is for my mom.” #TheLastofUs

something about joel not saying “baby girl” for twenty years since sarah died and saying it to ellie because she’s hurt and she needs him and that’s his daughter too and i’m not crying, you’re crying, leave me alone, we’re ALL CRYING #TheLastOfUs

since the start, bella ramsey has evidently, and effortlessly, proved just how phenomenal they are as ellie williams — every episode continues to prove that, and i truly and genuinely hope that ‘the last of us’ leads him to the emmy because they fucking deserve it! #TheLastOfUs.

they’ve come so far…literally and figuratively. #TheLastOfUs
