The Last Of Us Walkthrough Part 8 – Chapter 2: The Quarantine Zone (Cargo to Joel's Apartment)

Joel leaves the building with Ellie. Head straight across the way to find the next Firefly pendant. There is a body sitting against some newspaper stands. Just to the right of the body you will find the Firefly Pendant. Head over to the left from there and go on past the Quikmart on the opposite side of the street. Head on down the stairs on the left-hand side. Turn to the right at the bottom of the steps after going through the fence.

Head through the tunnel and start up the next set of stairs. Head on down the pathway past the building until it turns to the right. From there head into the courtyard. Once there go over to the left and toward the smaller building. You will find the front of it open and inside it a dumpster. Interact with it using “Triangle”. Roll it straight out and then over to the left, toward Ellie. Now roll it over to the metal staircase you see in front of you. Joel will let go automatically when it is in position.

With the Dumpster acting as a step up you can get up to the metal platform. Go ahead and climb up the dumpster and from there onto the metal stairs. Go on up the stairs after that and forward into the building. Once inside just head on forward and circle through the building. Just enjoy the conversation between Ellie and Joel as they walk on forward. After a while they will arrive back at Joel's Apartment. There are a few more words that are said then Joel falls asleep. A nighttime cutscene between Joel and Ellie. After that they all start to move out together. Time to start working on getting Ellie beyond the wall and to her destination.

Tess joins the group and tells them it is time to move on out and start for the tunnel. After Joel gets up from the couch look at the end table by the couch closest to the window. There you will find another artifact, “Tess's List”. Grab it then go into the next room. Head on over to the window and talk with Tess to get things started and move onto the next chapter in the story.

Move through the small opening that she revealed by moving the bookcase. After that go over to the generator on the left-hand side of the room. Time to start it up. You need to hit “Triangle” as the bar gets to the bottom of the gauge and do so successfully 3 times. Any failure will force you to restart the sequence. From there just head on over to the button on the wall and hit it to get the lift to take them on down.
