The Last of Us season 2 has revealed the origin of Joel's watch, and it attaches even more significance to it. Spoilers for the latest episode follow.
Episode 6 was full of flashbacks, but one took us back a bit further than the others. The episode opens in 1983, when Joel and Tommy are teenagers. Joel is trying to cover for Tommy so he doesn't get in trouble with their dad, and this results in Joel and his dad having a conversation at their kitchen table.
