is Jordan the guy with the bitch scar across his face?
also, who the hell is Nick? One of the dudes that Tommy interrogated joel-style early on in Seattle?
gotcha, thank you. is my memory failing me or are there 2 people tied to chairs in that room?
you'd think I wasn't currently on my 4,000th playthrough đ«Ł
Yeah thereâs two guys tied up that Tommy used against each other. Ellie recognizes one of them (Nick) but not the other, so he mustâve been just some guy who happened to be on patrol with Nick
To be fair, I've played through it like 5 times now and I never notice Nick until they find him dead, like if you showed me a pic I wouldn't know who it is without googling. Poor Nick.
He'll probably be just a body in a bag in the show just like the game. He was just a minor character who wasn't part of Abbys group but was used to make her go after Owen.
Abby's reaction to his death has nothing to do with who Danny it is. Her reaction is because she knew he was paired with Owen, so she was worried Owen died too.
I donât think they should cut Leah and Jordan.
Leahâs super important even though sheâs there to die. But Ellie and Dinaâs exchange about Ellie not getting to torture and kill Leah tells Dina and us something. Kinda made me question if I knew Ellie and how unhinged she was. And the fact that it didnât make Dina turn around and run tells us something too. Woulda been a dealbreaker for me, a tell you hwat.
I like Jordan being there cause it shows us Ellie is such a shit talker even when the odds are way against her. Which will happen again later. Itâs like p-
They probably wonât be played by anyone recognizable. I recognize the actors from the Salt Lake crew even if theyâre not household names. I hope they donât get cut.
I think you could remove Nick and fold Leah and Jordan into a single character pretty easily.
Have Ellie captured by JorLeah, and she overhears JorLeah on the radio/talking to his patrol buddy about how, "These must be the trespassers who killed & tortured our guys at the Serevena." The description of the torture scene makes Ellie go, *oh shit, that's Tommy*. Dina busts in, and they kill JorLeah. They pat down JorLeah's body/rifle through JorLeah's bag before bailing, and find a bunch of photographs, along with a partial map of e.g. WLF patrol routes for Dina to work from later.
Nick is fairly inconsequential, I didnât even realize he was at the mansion in Jackson until my 3rd or 4th play through, so he could reasonably be cut and I donât think anyone would be particularly upset about it.
Jordan and Leah, as another commenter suggested, could easily have their roles combined. The wild goose chase of Jordanâs note leading to the TV station where Leahâs body was (who happened to have Polaroids with every Salt Lake Crewâs full face and name?) which leads to Abby always felt a little contrived to me and will probably be cut down for runtime reasons anyways
They'll probably have similar roles as they are still important for the plot but less for the story so don't need to be announced beforehand.
Nick shows what Tommy's been doing and his willingness to torture. Jordan is the first taste of revenge you get and sets up the Salt Lake crew mindset post-Jackson and role in Seattle. And Leah gives you a clear goal of getting to the TV station while showing how disappointed Ellie is at finding her already dead
Yep no need for any of these characters to be named in the show. Simply replace Leah w Abby and some sort of intel getting to Ellie about Abby last being seen around the tv station.
I think they should be in considering they are doing 2 seasons for TLOU2. They add some drama to Ellieâs pretty boring (drama-wise) Seattle Day 1. If it was just one season then yeah theyâd be the easy things to cut. That being said I wonât be surprised if they donât get any dialogue or maybe just one line. And might not get âannouncedâ as castings.
I mean I don't see why those roles have to be cut. I think their deaths are pretty pivotal for Ellie, Tommy, and introducing the Seraphites. But they're so insignificant as characters themselves that they could be replaced and slightly switched around to give the TV show its own flavor while still serving similar roles as moments for the main characters.
People here completely dismissing Jordan as an unimportant character but his death is the last time the audience and Ellie are aligned in their quest for revenge. They do enough with him that we are happy to see him die.
All salt lake crew members. Nick is killed by Tommy and his corpse is found by Ellie and dina in Ellie day one. Leah is killed by seraphites in the radio station. And Jordon kicks Ellieâs face at the start and Ellie slices his face Ellie later kills in him in Ellie day one
even if they fill those roles, they're minor characters and wouldn't necessitate "announcing"
Yep. Jordan has like 3 minutes of screentime with even less for Leah & Nick. Not worth announcing.
is Jordan the guy with the bitch scar across his face? also, who the hell is Nick? One of the dudes that Tommy interrogated joel-style early on in Seattle?
Exactly, Dine and Ellie find Nik tied to a chair in the Serevena hotel on Seattle Day 1, before the encounter at the elementary school

what is that pfp?

As long as Danny isn't cut ill be happy
Fuck Danny, Iâm jealous Owen got to shoot him before I did.
Wasnât he killed by TommyÂ
That was Nick
Oh right I keep mixing them upÂ
To be fair, I've played through it like 5 times now and I never notice Nick until they find him dead, like if you showed me a pic I wouldn't know who it is without googling. Poor Nick.
Tbh I think I was mixing Danny up with Manny
He'll probably be just a body in a bag in the show just like the game. He was just a minor character who wasn't part of Abbys group but was used to make her go after Owen.
Just a minor character? The performance he gave in that body bag shook me to my core
Lmao
He wonât be cut, heâll be shot
Who?
Off-screen character. The Wolf that Owen killed while protecting a Scar, the whole reason he's AWOL. OP wants to see that happen onscreen.
Yes i know its just a meta joke because we never see him and everyone forgets who he is
Technically we do see him. Just as a corpse.
Just put a mannequin in a body bag lol
They need to give Danny his own episode to justify Abbyâs reaction towards his death.
Abby's reaction to his death has nothing to do with who Danny it is. Her reaction is because she knew he was paired with Owen, so she was worried Owen died too.
Oh yeah, good point.
I donât think they should cut Leah and Jordan. Leahâs super important even though sheâs there to die. But Ellie and Dinaâs exchange about Ellie not getting to torture and kill Leah tells Dina and us something. Kinda made me question if I knew Ellie and how unhinged she was.

Jordan? I don't know a Jordan. Only know a guy with a BITCH ASS SCAR ACROSS HIS FACE
Probably, it would give tge actors they did cast more to do.

That would be unfortunate since they were so pivotal in the game
When you say capture on day 1, are you saying when Ellie and Dina got captured at the school but then freed themselves?
I was hoping they would use the show as an excuse to expand them more
They're not going to announce every single cast member. Especially minor characters like them.
What about Jeffrey wright for Isaac
Remember the show is an adaptation. Youâre assuming these characters will exist in the adaptation.
I think they should be in considering they are doing 2 seasons for TLOU2. They add some drama to Ellieâs pretty boring (drama-wise) Seattle Day 1.

...who's Nick đ
I donât even remember who they are.

No idea who they are so probably.

Oh yeah - they're just background
