For those, like me, who thought The Handmaid’s Tale was in a perpetual cycle, many things happen which break the wheel and lead us to believe Season 3 will be the fall of Gilead.
June may find herself responsible for yet another death as Emily finds herself in a rather peculiar commander’s home.
Desperate times call for desperate measures and June finds herself having to put her baby first as things become impossible for her.
Perhaps the happiest day of June’s life in a long time also meets yet another where she ends up getting someone killed.
A trip to Canada temps Serena Joy, Nick meets Luke, and June searches for a godmother. Including Aunt Lydia who opens up to her.
Many women get a taste of the old world and there is the slightest bit of hope things could get better for them. However, said blessing is finite.
As Serena Joy and June continue their complicated relationship, something possibly game-changing happens at the end of the episode.
After her grand act of defiance inspiring a non-violent protest, it is time to see how Aunt Lydia plans to punish the girls and whether June’s pregnancy means anything in regards to that.
