Ellie and Dina being gay for each other

We see two clips of Bella Ramsey returning as protagonist Ellie and Isabela Merced as Dina, her ride-or-die girlfriend and best friend in Jackson. Because of events, Dina accompanies Ellie on her revenge quest to Seattle, and we see the pair running from, presumably, infected in the city. However, we also see the two slow dancing and looking lovingly into each other’s eyes. Fans will know this scene as taking place at a dance in Jackson and as one of the first moments Naughty Dog released to the public way back in 2018. Chronologically, this happens just before the bulk of The Last of Us Part II but isn’t shown to the player until near the end. The sequel is flashback-heavy, and this sequence is one of the last ones the player sees after Ellie returns home from Seattle where most of the game takes place, so if this scene is going to be in season two, it’s another implication that the show is tweaking the sequence of events. The first season was a pretty faithful retelling of the original game’s story (with a few exceptions), so I expected the second season to follow suit. Across all three trailers, there haven’t been that many scenes that don’t seem lifted straight from The Last of Us Part II’s events beyond Joel’s apparent therapy sessions, but it seems like it might be playing with the structure a bit.
