The Handmaid's Tale (Hulu) #10: "Don’t run. Don’t kick. Don’t scream. Don’t fight at all. Don’t fight."
+ Adapted from the classic novel by Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred (Elisabeth Moss) is a Handmaid in the Commander’s household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her. Official Instagram Cast: Elisabeth Moss as June Osborne/Offred Joseph Fiennes as Commander Fred Waterford Yvonne Strahovski as Serena Joy Waterford Alexis Bledel as Emily/Ofglen (later Ofsteven) Madeline Brewer as Janine/Ofwarren (later Ofdaniel) Ann Dowd as Aunt Lydia O. T. Fagbenle as Luke Bankole, June's husband Max Minghella as Nick Blaine Samira Wiley as Moira __________________

I was hoping Serena would get to her senses but she's been going backwards ever since the baby

I did like Serenas movements towards redemption in early s3 but I think that's gone. I don't think she'll be redeemed.It will be intresting to see how her story moves forward will she be a handmaid or go after June.
I wonder if June is getting arrested or leaving Luke. It was a good revenge on Fred. I had to fast forward it as I do with violent scenes but him on the wall was good revenge. It was good that June found a loophole. It is sadly common in problematic situation that they let out bad people to get information. I am glad the show touched on it although I think mark should have told June in a better way Last edited by fox24; 06-18-2021 at 11:52 PM |

You're welcome.
So the last 15 minutes of the ep is all that matters. FREAKING FINALLY! NICK BLAINE AND COMMANDER LAWRENCE COMING THROUGH. At first I was confused why June keeps telling Luke that "he has to be on the wall" or something like that (in the car). And then later on I got that she was talking about Fred. My favorite scenes are the severed finger that June sent to Serena who was, btw, waiting for Fred's Zoom call and by this point I was too ecstatic it was hilarious seeing it. I also like that shot of Fred's body on the wall. Also why are those my favorite scenes? They are horrid. What has this show done to me? Next up: Serena Joy and Aunt Lydia. Let's go June! This will be a torture waiting for S5... __________________

I also loved that when June and Nick kissed Fred was like "this is sick!" oh that is suddenly sick? he must know.
also props to Jo Fiennes for playing such a satanic character so well all these years, but I am not gonna miss him it was time for Fred to go and with a bang I must say __________________

Fred's face in that scene. And also the way he begged for Nick to save his life. And then later on to June. I felt no pity even when he said that he has a son. WE DON'T CARE FRED.
IKR? I thought Fred will still be around next season but damn they already killed him off. I'm gonna miss Joseph too, he's AMAZiNG playing Fred. __________________

he was such an integral part of the show! It's hard to imagine it without him.

I wish we saw Serena's reaction to getting that severed finger. Btw, will Serena be having her baby in Gilead? Cause I'm pretty sure their next target is Serena.

they should wait till the baby is born. Surely, they're not going to take it out on an innocent?
