Which scene exactly? I've read a lot of complaints about different parts, but my biggest issue is

Tap for spoilerat least in the show, they made it look like I should give a shit about Abby's revenge, when her father and his science buddies were literally about to kill a child who couldn't consent to this procedure even if she wanted to. For something that would have most likely failed, because if I'm not mistaken, according to the game, they had failed multiple times to to produce a working vaccine at that point. So all that whining about Joel taking away her choice is bullshit drama, because she was too young to consent anyway. That's why I'm firmly in the fuck Part 2 camp.

Putting this in a seperate comment because it is unrelated but that is a completely acceptable reason to hate part 2. (Like most good stories) it's not made for everyone.

I think the reason you (and others who dislike part 2) were (wrongfully) labeled as a bigot is because most the hate for the game came after the leaks and before the release, so all people knew was that

spoilerThey're killing off the male main character, that's so woke!!!!

and all reasonable criticism that came after were unfortunately assumed to be in that group.

Was trying to avoid spoilers (even though most people know the scene, but some don't) but I forgot about spoiler tags (probably because they only work half the time in boost)
