Crew member wanders into frame in new The Last of Us episode, internet has a field day: 'GoT coffee cup all over again'
The Last of Us is one of the most talked-about shows on television right now. The HBO series is consistently breaking viewership records, and (spoiler alert) Pedro Pascal's character's death earlier this season catapulted it to the mainstream as well. Even as Pedro returned to the screen in the latest episode in flashbacks, what stole the show was a crew member who accidentally wandered into the frame and was left there, too, rather puzzlingly.

The Last of Us S02E06 sees Ellie (Bella Ramsey) remembering her bond with Joel (Pedro Pascal) through a series of flashbacks about how they celebrated her birthdays over the five years between seasons 1 and 2. The episode sets up important context about Joel and Ellie's fallout and adds emotional heft to Ellie's loss on Joel's death.
One of the flashbacks in the post-apocalypse show's new episode sees Joel and Ellie out on patrol in the woods near their new residence - the Jackson settlement. The scene is a heartfelt one with the two talking about trust. However, the suspension of disbelief is lifted for a moment as the two ride off on their horses and the camera points to a crew member in the background, blurred but very much in the frame.

On Tuesday, Instagram user @crossrodz.r shared the clip with the caption, "It's the coffee cup on GOT all over again." The reference is to the infamous Starbucks coffee cup that made its way into a frame on Game of Thrones' final season a few years ago. Fans reacted to the clip with laughter. One wrote, "They'll probably try and edit it out as soon as they realise." Another added that the 'trespasser' looked like showrunner Craig Mazin. Many others agreed that 'It's giving Starbucks cup on GoT'.
The Last of Us, created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann for HBO, is based on the video game franchise developed by Naughty Dog. Set 20 years in the future, it shows a world ravaged by a fungal epidemic that turns the infected into zombie-like creatures. The second season is currently streaming on JioHotstar with a new episode dropping every Sunday.

The couple was recently spotted enjoying a private dinner at San Vicente Bungalows in New York City, accompanied by Swift's brother, Austin. Their low-key night out follows Kelce's involvement in the fifth annual Tight End University event — a mix of professional bonding and lighthearted fun that's become a signature part of his offseason.

From supporting the Philadelphia Eagles during their Super Bowl LIX victory over the Chiefs to being a prominent voice on the I Am Athlete Daily podcast, Nicole has carved a distinct niche for herself. Off the mic, she's also building a brand rooted in wellness. As CEO of Tribe Therepe, Nicole is on a mission to redefine fitness by focusing on the mind-body connection. 'It's focusing on the mental health component of working out, which is really, really important for me and really resonates with me,' she told PEOPLE. 'I think that when your mind is in a healthy place, your body will follow.' Her impact doesn't stop at fitness or podcasting. Nicole recently launched her own show, The Pre-Game, where she's unfiltered about everything — including her dating life. While she's known for her past with Kelce, she's made it clear that her future might steer away from dating athletes altogether. 'I'll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage,' Nicole said. 'I would love to date an executive of a record label or a movie producer so that we can go to the sporting events. Let date night be courtside at the Lakers game, that's my kind of guy.' Whether it's through viral posts or meaningful projects, Kayla Nicole is proving that she's in a league of her own — with or without an NFL player by her side.
