This catches the attention of the Fireflies who want to smuggle her out of the QZ to take her out west where a team is working on a vaccine.

Ellie is a lot more confrontational and abrasive compared to the game, especially towards Joel. This includes having a greater penchant towards violence. Once she and Joel start to bond, her characterization becomes more similar to the game's continuity.
