The Last Of Us Walkthrough Part 2 – Chapter 2: The Quarantine Zone (Start to Apartment)

Everything picks up 20 years later. Joel is living with Tess. The two talk about a man named “Robert” who has been causes serious trouble for them. Tess has learned that Robert is hiding in an old warehouse in Mission Hill. She and Joel leave to go deal with him. Head outside and follow Tess over to the left. The two talk of the matters of the day. When they make it to the street turn to the right and continue to follow Tess. She will lead Joel to a checkpoint and tell him to play it cool. Apparently she got them new papers to get them through. Follow her forward then move toward the checkpoint. A cutscene runs as Joel approaches the gate. They wave him through but before he can take a step in that direction the truck moving in front of them gets blown up.

After the cutscene it marks a good time to start moving the other way for a little while. Start running away Follow Tess back up the street and into the first building on the left. Once inside Tess will give Joel his first Health Kit. Hit “Up” on the d-pad then hold “R1” for him to crouch and apply it to restore his health to full. With Joel healed head through the building following Tess, time to take the hard route on through.

As the pair head down the hall Tess talks with someone she knows. Apparently Marlene, a member of the Fireflies, wants to have “words” with Robert. As the Fireflies are fairly militant themselves this cannot be good. Just continue on forward with Tess. Eventually you can make a left turn then go into a room. Tess has a few words with the watcher there who reports no Military or Infected in the area. Head over to the bookcase on the left and help Tess move it. After that head into the hole in the wall and off you shall go.

Joel lands safely and then Tess turns on the light in the area. Time to grab the gear and get moving. Head to the to the right from where you started. Vault the pipe in your way with “X” then follow Tess over to the right and to the counter space. There the two of you can claim your gear and load up the backpack; handgun, gas mask and flashlight. Head around the divider in front of Joel and Tess will ask him for a boost. Head over to the wall and hit “Triangle”. She will approach and climb up onto the ledge above. After that she will turn around and offer her hand. Hit “X” to climb up using the offered hand. Just head a little forward to the boards that are above your head. Approach them and hit “Triangle” to interact with them. Joel will lift the door and let Tess get through. After that she will hold it up for him. Together they settle it back into the same place. Joel and Tess have made it to the pizzeria that sits outside the walled in quarantine zone. The two have a quaint little exchange as you go outside and over to the right.

The two go around the sink hole and then the question is raised of where the ladder is. Look around for the white coup car. Head over to it and look behind it to find the ladder that is needed. Approach the ladder and hit “Triangle” to pick it up. Now head over to where Tess is. You need to use that ladder to get into the apartment that is above you. Tess will go up first at Joel's invitation and after that you will be prompted to climb the ladder moving forward using “X”.Once inside the apartment you can follow Tess into the next room but do not head on down the stairs. There are a few things to find first.

Head into the next room, the kitchen. Go over to the right and search the 2 drawers you can. You will find some Parts in there. The number depends on the difficulty: the higher difficulty means less Parts. Now go into the next room to the right, the bed room. Go over to the desk on the left and grab the Firefly Pendant there. It is the first of 30 you can find over the course of the game. Head back toward the kitchen and go into the stairwell on the right. Follow Tess down the stairs.
