Now, we are taking control of Ellie, who slept in and is woken up by Jesse, one of the game’s supporting characters. Get your jacket from the desk, pick up your knife by the door and head out.
Follow Jesse
We are late for heading out to Patrol. Follow Jesse into town and talk about last night’s events.
When arriving at the crossing, head left to pick up our first collectible, a Trading Card, which is hanging on the noticeboard at the side of the building.
Easter Egg: Here a fun fact – on the other side of the crossing, the Banjo-Player is Gustavo Santaolalla, the music-composer of The Last of Us 1 & 2.
Continue following Jesse through the town. Before heading into the Tipsy Bison Bar, check the right side of the road for the “Blacksmith” shop. Here you can scavenge 7 Parts from the bench where the Blacksmiths are working (they are in a box that says “Free Parts”). Parts are used to upgrade weapons at workbenches which you find later in the game. Closeby, also on the right side of the road you can find an Artifact on a crate at the very end of the path (circled red in image below).
Once you picked up the Artifact, head into Tipsy Bison Bar on the left side. After the scene with Maria and Seth in the Bar, check the Dartboard for the final collectible in this Chapter, another Trading Card.
Exit the bar and while you follow Jesse and Maria, you can find another 3 Parts on the right side, under the scaffold of the Public Library. At the end of the snowy road, there are 5 Parts on a box that a squirrel is looking at.
Snowball Fight
When you have rejoined with Dina, you need to partake in a Snowball Fight against some of the town’s kids. Pick up Snow with and throw with .
Winning or losing doesn’t really matter, but anyone who can defeat hordes of Infected should have the upper hand here!
Follow Dina
After the fight, head to the stables together.
This is where you will get your horse, called Shimmer.
Now, Jesse will give a short speech and everyone heads out to their assigned Patrol Routes.
This finishes Chapter 2: Waking Up in The Last of Us Part 2. Next is Chapter 3: The Overlook.

Thanks for this!! The scavenging parts I collected in Waking Up aren’t there in Ellie’s backpack during the Patrol chapter. I don’t know why. The trading cards and artifact are there though. Has this happened to you as well?

Me too. Started a new game three times, kept happening. Very annoying.
