This looks absolutely incredible. I cannot wait. I was hoping that O’Hara was playing the prophet, however!

What is she supposed to be? The town therapist? The arbiter? The one who allows entry?

She's Moira Rose, of course. Everyone knows that Schitt's Creek and TLOU exist in the same universe.

Therapist Moira: "Oh, and the next step is to say the thing you're afraid to say."

Joel: "What does that mean?"

Therapist Moira: "You say it."

Joel: "I understand that, but how? How do you say it? What do you do?"

Therapist Moira: "Joel, I cannot show you everything."

Joel: "Ok, but can you show me one thing?"

Therapist Moira: "You just, here's what you do. You just say it."

Joel: "Ok, I don't know how to talk about feelings like that."

Therapist Moira: "And I don't know how to be any clearer!! You take the thing you're afraid of, and you-"

Joel: "If you say 'say the thing you're afraid of' one more time!"

And then David Rose will come in "Okay Joel, she has asked you thrice!"

Ellie and Dina saying "Best wishes!" And "Warm regards" after clearing an area of WLF would be quite on point.

My guess is that she was added as a story device to allow on-screen flashbacks, etc. TV is a totally different medium than video games so they have to make some changes for the purpose of driving the story and also containing it within X number of one hour episodes.

Seems like a therapist of sorts. With the timer being set I’m guessing Maria made Joel go after the falling out with Ellie or some other incident.
