With out spoiling something, let’s simply say they don’t grow to be mates.
Apparently, although, David and James belong to a bigger neighborhood of survivors who dwell in an deserted resort. In a later scene between Ellie and David, the 2 might be noticed in a spot known as Todd’s Steakhouse. Notably, the outside of this set is Lakeside Chophouse, the one Waterton restaurant by the lake.
Different real-life locations Albertans noticed embody the Thirsty Bear socialhouse and Trappers Mountain Grill.
