Warning: Contains spoilers for The Last of Us episode 3.

The Last of Us episode 3 introduced us to Bill (Nick Offerman) and Frank (Murray Bartlett), and nobody can get enough of them.

The good news is, despite the episode's deeply tear-inducing ending, the actors themselves have taken part in a little audience Q&A to help lighten us up a bit.

In the clip above Offerman and Bartlett answer questions on everything from how they first met to how they celebrated getting their respective roles. When it comes to what they'd be doing if they weren't actors, though, their responses clearly prove how well-suited they were to the characters they played.

"I would build things out of wood," responds Offerman. "Like boats and musical instruments, probably."

"I would try to be in nature as much as possible, which I do even though I am an actor," says Bartlett. "But probably like try and be a park ranger or something, someone who takes care of nature somehow."

"That's the best," Offerman chips in. "I applaud that."

The Last of Us is now streaming on HBO Max with new episodes airing weekly on Sunday nights on HBO.
