Yet another question/plot hole tho...

How did Abby find the theatre in the show? In the show, Ellie's trying to get them to point out where Abby is on a map that's there in the aquarium. In the game, Ellie's trying to make them point to where Abby is in HER map that she brought with her - in the aftermath of what happens, she accidentally leaves her map behind, and the theatre is marked on that map (so when Abby finds her friends dead she knows exactly where to go). It's a very neat way to tie up a potential loose end that, for some reason, they didn't do in the show. I can't think of any reason for that really. Everthing else plays out the same, except that it's not Ellie's map.

I would imagine they'll show how she found them next season when we get it played out from Abbys POV

Well if we were getting a Jessie POV season we'd probably know

Funnily enough I remember people really wanted a "Jessie DLC" for the game where you'd play as him from arriving in Seattle up to when he meets up with Ellie (in the game Ellie and Jessie run into each other out in the city fighting WLF's, Dina is in a sort of "control centre" role back at the theatre). And also the order of arrival in Seattle in the game was;

Tommy left for Seattle first (on his own), Tommy's wife then gave Ellie and Dina the supplies/horse to go after Tommy, Jessie found out and went after them on his own (so arrived in Seattle last, alone). So there's a whole day+ of Jessie vs the WLF in the city.

Also Tommy has basically gone full terminator, while sneaking around a WLF area you can overhear them talking about how there's some "unknown soldier" in the city sniping dozens of WLF and they can't find him -- implied to be Tommy on a full on killing spree . I kind of hope they show that.

Spoiler:

There's a whole Abby-sequence where you're basically just fleeing from Tommy, all you ever see of him is a shadowy figure in the distance/the rifle light and it's bloody terrifying, way scarier than any infected, Tommy is a machine
