00:00:18you want to know what it was like for me growing up in Gilead I'm ashamed to say
00:00:24that I believed in Gilead once I guess it's easier to accept a story even a
00:00:30childish one rather than believe that the people around you are monsters
00:00:41in this story I'm telling I'm not really sure what year it was sorry it's hard to
00:00:48remember actual dates because girls were forbidden to have calendars just reading
00:00:53one could cost you a finger you learn to mark time in other ways I know I still
00:01:08had my dollhouse it looked just like our real house it had my bedroom and the
00:01:15dining room a wife's parlor even an attic where the Martha slept
00:01:33I was a plum I didn't have my period yet in my world then I made all the
00:01:41difference it was all we wanted and it also terrified us
00:02:06I know what to do now that I've got a man like you
00:02:23the commander doll was always doing very important work just like my father
00:02:28keeping us safe from heretics and mayday terrorists
00:02:46the Martha dolls were always busy but at night they would let the little girl doll sit in the kitchen
00:02:51with them
00:02:52they would make her cinnamon toast and they would all talk
00:03:03there is a wife doll in blue of course
00:03:07that would be Paula who was my new stepmother then
00:03:11blessed morning Agnes dear

00:03:25yes ma'am I'll do that after the commander's meeting
00:03:32thank you Zilla
00:03:34Zilla was new her tongue was removed as punishment before she was posted with us
00:03:40probably for blasphemy that was a big one for some wives
00:03:44well she's certainly an improvement that last one we had was a chatty Cathy
00:03:49sometimes when I was playing with the dollhouse
00:03:52I would lock the Paula doll in the attic
00:03:55which was not nice
00:03:56the Paula doll would pound on the door and scream
00:03:59but the little girl doll would pay no attention
00:04:02and sometimes she would laugh
00:04:03is that the new skirt
00:04:07up then
00:04:11well don't you look pretty as a picture
00:04:15thank you

00:04:22but no

00:04:31for not making me look too gawky
00:04:35I'm an irritant to Paula

00:05:12what's the morning is that
00:05:17under his eye speedy
00:05:18bye rosa
00:05:35once when we were pinks
00:05:37I smiled at a boy on the playground
00:05:38the ounce taped my mouth shut
00:05:40and made me stand in the dining hall for two days
00:05:43holding the sign for a slut
00:05:44I was for smiling
00:05:46I wonder what would happen if I kissed one
00:05:49I'm a man
00:05:50I'm a man
00:06:04I'm a man
00:06:24When we became plums, we started going on the field trips.
00:06:28They were fun.
00:06:30Some parts more than others.
00:06:40I got you!
00:06:49When I met you in the restaurant,
00:06:54I got you!
00:07:05Come along, girls!
00:07:08Come on, girls, come on!
00:07:17Quiet, quiet, quiet!
00:07:18Dreaming, dreaming is free.
00:07:23I don't want you to live on charity.
00:07:30Pleasure's real, or is it fantasy?
00:07:39Gross.
00:07:40Hold it enough.
00:07:42God's justice is beautiful.
00:07:44I'm sorry, Aunt Vidala.
00:07:46Friends, these men, do you know what crime they committed?
00:07:54Yes, Shinamite?
00:07:56Rape.
00:07:56Aunt Vidala, that's what the red X is for.
00:07:59It's for rape.
00:08:00Praise be.
00:08:01Friends, these men.
00:08:04These horrible men.
00:08:07Rapists?
00:08:08You say rapists?
00:08:10Rapists, yes.
00:08:12Thank you, Shinamite.
00:08:14Not Reaper.
00:08:15I didn't know that.
00:08:16Friends, it's a ghastly story.
00:08:19These men stole a young girl, much like yourselves.
00:08:23This young girl was a kind who liked being the center of attention.
00:08:26A spirited girl.
00:08:28That kind of girl often earns a violent end for herself.
00:08:32Praise be his judgment.
00:08:34Praise be his judgment.
00:08:35These men saw this girl.
00:08:37They were overcome by their urges.
00:08:40They came in the night and took her from her own bed.
00:08:45What about her guardians?
00:08:47Some of them were her guardians.
00:08:50The urges of men are terrible things.
00:08:52And those urges must be curbed.
00:08:54That is the burden that God has personally laid upon each of you.
00:08:58Just by existing, we were mortally dangerous to otherwise perfectly good men.
00:09:03They were helpless to resist us.
00:09:06Even us.
00:09:08The daughters of commanders.
00:09:10The most godly of girls.
00:09:31I was a precious flower.
00:09:34Then why did I sometimes feel like a prized pig?
00:09:37I've movedقد.
00:09:38Don't forget!
00:09:40Let's eat!
00:09:41badly.
00:10:061, GLASS
00:10:072, GLASS
00:10:072, GLASS
00:10:09At the Aunt Lydia school, pink dresses were for little girls, plum dresses were for older
00:10:13girls like us.
00:10:15Predestined to marry high Gilead commanders once we became eligible, which only happened
00:10:20if God blessed us with a period.
00:10:22Then we became greens, and got pins.
00:10:28Blessed be the fruit.
00:10:30You're insane.
00:10:31The skirt looks fine.
00:10:32May the Lord open, don't bother.
00:10:33Even God knows Paula has no taste.
00:10:39Becca was the first person I met when we moved here from Colorado.
00:10:43She was my best friend, except we weren't allowed to have best friends.
00:10:47The aunt said that best friends led to keeping secrets, and secrets led to disobedience.
00:10:51And disobedient girls became women who were immoral, obviously.
00:10:55We've been sent good weather.
00:10:57This blessing?
00:10:58You have your address today?
00:11:00Keep moving girls, let's go.
00:11:02After lunch.
00:11:02Becca was already green.
00:11:04She was getting ready to be matched.
00:11:06She was moving on, without me.
00:11:08But we didn't talk about that.
00:11:10This will be our third seamstress.
00:11:12My mother thinks if she gets the bodice just right, everyone will forget my dad's a dentist.
00:11:17Maybe she dresses you too.
00:11:19Blessed day.
00:11:20Blessed day.
00:11:21We've been sent good weather.
00:11:22That I received with joy.
00:11:23Very, very cute hair.
00:11:25Yeah, I definitely agree.
00:11:27Thanks.
00:11:27You, Martha.
00:11:28Blessed be yours too.
00:11:29Seriously.
00:11:29My Marcos socks, I look like I have a bed head.
00:11:32Shunammite.
00:11:33Chitter chatter, chitter chatter.
00:11:34Flap your tongue around and you're likely to lose it.
00:11:37Yes, Aunt Padala.
00:11:38Have a graceful day, girls.
00:11:40More haste, blessed thee.
00:11:44Aunt Lydia was a legend.
00:11:46Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
00:11:47She had been worshipped, then vilified, then worshipped again.
00:11:52Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
00:11:53In the four years since the war of Massachusetts, the purges had happened.
00:11:57As always, those remaining were able to shape history as they liked.
00:12:01Some people were hung, and some had schools named after them.
00:12:09At one time, we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived, and enslaved by all kinds of passions
00:12:15and envy.
00:12:16We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another.
00:12:21But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us.
00:12:26Not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.
00:12:32White was for the pearl girls.
00:12:34They were new arrivals from outside of Gilead.
00:12:37Converts through a godly struggle.
00:12:39You might become heirs, having the hope of eternal life.
00:12:41Aunt Lydia and her missionaries gathered them from all over the world.
00:12:44They were mostly runaways.
00:12:47Of course they had to be young, and possibly fertile.
00:12:51Weirdos.
00:12:58Beyond said the pearl girls came eager for a new start.
00:13:01They were even more eager to prove their godliness by telling on you to the aunts.
00:13:06We all knew someone who had been ratted out by a pearl girl.
00:13:09Amen.
00:13:09The passion of the converted.
00:13:12What a pain in the ass.
00:13:14Instead of the
00:13:36Nice work, Constance.

00:20:22Let's go.
00:20:24Let's go.
00:20:29That's a beautiful name.
00:20:31It is.
00:20:34I imagine Canada is very different from Gilead.
00:20:38Toronto has been forsaken by God and defiled by Satan.
00:20:43It is suffocating in sin.
00:20:48So do you miss it?
00:20:52I pray it will be swallowed whole by the earth.
00:21:00May he hear your prayer.
00:21:09Daisy, do you like soft serve ice cream?
00:21:14Food is one of his miracles.
00:21:16They have it here. Strawberry and vanilla.
00:21:19Holda will take you.
00:21:21Yeah, I can make you a swirl cone.
00:21:22I'm sort of an expert.
00:21:25Aunt Lydia urged me to stay with Miss Agnes.
00:21:27Ice cream is definitely one of his miracles.
00:21:30And you wouldn't want to insult God.
00:21:35You should get some.
00:21:37Come on.
00:21:53They stuck you with the pearl girl. What did you do wrong?
00:21:56She didn't do anything.
00:21:58This is unprecedented.
00:22:00So what did Aunt Lydia say?
00:22:02She said she's new here.
00:22:04I'm just supposed to be a shepherdess.
00:22:06I don't like her.
00:22:07She didn't seem very nice.
00:22:08Well, you can't trust her.
00:22:09She'll tell Aunt Lydia everything.
00:22:10She's a pearl girl.
00:22:11Here.
00:22:12Here.
00:22:13Becca?
00:22:14Your mark is here to collect you.
00:22:16Yes, Aunt Anna.
00:22:21Am I fitting?
00:22:23Pray for me.
00:22:24I wish I was green this season.
00:22:26I wish we all were together.
00:22:29It's starting to move very, very fast.
00:22:33It's a dress.
00:22:34Not a husband.
00:22:37Not yet.
00:22:38Well, I can't wait to have a husband.
00:22:39Becca.
00:22:40Hurry.
00:22:40Come along.
00:22:41Shake a leg.
00:22:43I'm going, Grace.
00:22:46I'm going, Grace.
00:22:46I'm going, Grace.
00:22:46I'm going, Grace.
00:22:47I'm going, Grace.
00:23:04You should tell Aunt her.
00:23:05You're a pearl girl.
00:23:07For what?
00:23:08Just say that she gossips or has a foul tongue.
00:23:11Sure.
00:23:11Or that she ran off to go get ice cream.
00:23:13That could be possible.
00:23:14She'd be punished.
00:23:16You're an awful person.
00:23:17Stop.
00:23:18I didn't say to make her a gender traitor or anything.
00:23:21Just something small.
00:23:24Agnes.
00:23:26I know that you are very, very nice.
00:23:28But it's time to plumb up and get her before she gets you.
00:23:32good.
00:23:50Cinnamon toast.
00:23:52Praise be his bounty.
00:23:58Is it awful?
00:24:00God never sends us more than we can bear.
00:24:03Sometimes we just get close, though.
00:24:08Becca had her final fitting.
00:24:10She must be happy to be getting a new dress.
00:24:14I'm sure she looks perfect.
00:24:16She's a beautiful girl.
00:24:19She could get an offer from a commander at the dance.
00:24:23Her dad could.
00:24:26She could marry one who lives in Wyoming.
00:24:28I mean, we're anywhere.
00:24:31Not Maryland.
00:24:33She won't move far if she marries a high commander.
00:24:36They need to live near the capital.
00:24:38She could marry one who doesn't let his wife have any friends.
00:24:44Try not to think about it.
00:24:47Rosa, how did you meet your husband?
00:24:51Before, I mean.
00:24:56We met in a bookstore.
00:25:00Almost everyone we knew then was meeting online on Tinder, Bumble.
00:25:05We met in the cookbook section.
00:25:08What's Tinder?
00:25:11It's not something you're ever going to need to know, Pumpkin.
00:25:15Last evening, ma'am.
00:25:20The commander will be home Thursday.
00:25:22I have some things for the Marthas to do.
00:25:25You said your leg was better.
00:25:27It is, ma'am.
00:25:30Good.
00:25:32Head up to the third floor.
00:25:33We'll start there.
00:25:37Yes, ma'am.
00:25:46I grew up riding.
00:25:49When a horse would come up late, my father would shoot it.
00:25:54It was hard.
00:25:57But it was the merciful thing to do.
00:26:00Haven't I told you that story?
00:26:02Mother, no, mother.
00:26:08They learned that sometimes you have to be hard.
00:26:13Sometimes you have to cut off weak branches and bothersome ones.
00:26:18You'll understand when you're running your own household.
00:26:23Blessed evening.
00:26:39Mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no,
00:26:54mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no,
00:26:54mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no,
00:26:54mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no,
00:26:54mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no,
00:26:54mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother, no, mother
00:27:19Assembly time, my plums. Two lines. Two lines.
00:27:24Posture, Agnes. I'm sorry, Ophidala.
00:27:32Plums, please assemble in the dining hall.
00:27:35Hurry along. Kings, to your classes. Cha-cha.
00:28:03I'm sorry, Ophidala.
00:28:04Listen, Dave is our best.
00:28:26It was a day.
00:28:28How was it?
00:28:30May the Lord open.
00:28:31Fine.
00:28:33Shut up.
00:28:34It was fine.
00:28:36I feel like obviously it is.
00:28:44Blessed day, graceful friends.
00:28:47We need your energy because we have some difficult work to do today for him.
00:28:58Are you ready?
00:29:00Yes, blessed day.
00:29:11Oh, someone's in trouble.
00:29:14Good.
00:29:14He's the gross one.
00:29:16This man is a sinner.
00:29:18Hidden amongst us.
00:29:20He was found touching himself.
00:29:23Abusing himself.
00:29:24On school grounds.
00:29:26Gilead trusted him to protect you, God's most precious girls.
00:29:32Instead, he chose wickedness.
00:29:35We do not play with the power of creation.
00:29:39What are they going to do to him?
00:29:41Quiet.
00:29:42He deserves our judgment.
00:29:43Do not relish in it.
00:29:45You are not blameless, girls.
00:29:48Shame upon any of you that tempt a man.
00:29:52Now, this is your decision.
00:29:55You will have to make many difficult decisions when you are wives.
00:30:00So what do you say, girls?
00:30:03Should this man go unpunished?
00:30:06Punished.
00:30:10Punished.
00:30:16Punished.
00:30:19Punished.
00:30:24Punished.
00:30:35I am so proud of the women you are becoming.
00:30:48I am her!
00:30:55Oh, my God.
00:30:59Sam, please.
00:31:00Come on.
00:31:01Here it is.
00:31:02Come on.
00:31:04This fight is over.
00:31:06Justice.
00:31:07Justice.
00:31:08Oh, my God.
00:31:10Frank, are you okay?
00:31:12I'm fine.
00:31:14Please be very concerned.
00:31:37Daisy?
00:31:38Daisy?
00:31:42Fuck.
00:31:43What the fuck was that?
00:31:45They broke the rules.
00:31:46They cut it off.
00:31:47I saw his arm.
00:31:49Jesus Christ, he was fucking wide awake.
00:31:51For fuck's sake.
00:31:52Jesus, what the fuck?
00:31:57I'm sorry.
00:32:00Agnes.
00:32:01Agnes.
00:32:02Don't.
00:32:03Don't tell.
00:32:05Oh, sweetie.
00:32:08Agnes, help Daisy get cleaned up.
00:32:26How do you feel?
00:32:32They told us about it some ways.
00:32:37I didn't think it'd be like that.
00:32:40Like what?
00:32:50Thank you for taking care of me.
00:32:56When Aunt Lydia gives you an assignment, you do it.
00:33:01Miss Agnes, I am so sorry.
00:33:03I committed blasphemy.
00:33:06You were unwell.
00:33:08I took his name in vain.
00:33:10Agnes.
00:33:11There's no excuse.
00:33:14I know I must confess.
00:33:17Okay.
00:33:20Aunt Lydia is in charge of punishing pro girls.
00:33:25Okay.
00:33:28Praise be her discipline.
00:33:31I need to learn.
00:33:38Do you think she'll cut out my tongue?
00:33:43There are stories.
00:33:45I know.
00:33:46Not for this.
00:33:48Probably not.
00:33:51Okay.
00:33:54If it's God's will.
00:33:55If it's God's will.
00:33:57If it's God's will.
00:33:59If it's God's will.
00:34:00I can't.
00:34:01Agnes, I can't.
00:34:02It's okay.
00:34:03You don't have to.
00:34:06You don't have to.
00:34:08It was just us.
00:34:25God sees our sins.
00:34:33We'll pray together.
00:34:35We'll show contrition.
00:34:39God is merciful.
00:34:42The aunts, not so much sometimes.
00:34:47Are you sure?
00:34:51Our secret.
00:35:00Shunemite said Daisy was dangerous.
00:35:03She was right, of course.
00:35:06She said you should never, ever trust a pro girl.
00:35:09But that was exactly what I did.
00:35:21Blessed night, my girls.
00:35:25May God protect you.
00:35:26God bless you.
00:35:29Hiu, whomp, whomp, whomp.
00:35:32FUCK!
00:35:51All right.
00:35:52Where are you?enta
00:35:56thought
00:35:58Let's go.
00:36:30This is Radio Free Boston.
00:36:32If you're hoping for some tunes, you're in the right place.
00:36:35For our May Day heroes behind the lines, tonight's messages are on channel 99.2.
00:36:40And remember folks, don't let the bastards cry.
00:36:45Red Dog, Green House, White Barn, you have packages waiting.
00:36:49If you're in the Paperclip Club, sit tight.
00:36:52That's it for tonight.
00:37:19I'll see you next time.
00:37:24Oh, my life is changing every day.
00:37:32Every bus of the way.
00:37:38All my dreams was never quite as it seemed.
00:37:46Never quite as it seemed.
00:37:52I know I felt like this before.
00:37:55But now I'm feeling it even more.
00:38:00Because it came from me.
00:38:06Then I opened up and see the person falling here is me.
00:38:13A different way to be.
00:38:38A different way to be.
00:38:43The shorebirds were shorter.
00:38:44The shorebirds were back.
00:38:46The shorebirds were back.
00:38:46You could hear them really high up.
00:38:48A sure sign of spring.
00:38:51I didn't know who my mom was.
00:38:53I didn't know who my mom was yet.
00:38:54My real mom.
00:38:57I didn't know who my mom was yet.
00:38:57That would come soon.
00:39:00I had no idea how much that would change things.
00:39:04Without calendars, you learn to mark time in other ways.
00:39:07It was when I became eligible.
00:39:10And when I met Daisy, it was when it all started.
00:39:16The aunts told us lots of girls never blossom because they're disobedient and prideful.
00:39:21And those girls are worthless to God.
00:39:24Getting your period was like a stamp of approval from God himself.
00:39:28I was one of the chosen ones.
00:39:31Me.
00:39:33Why me?
00:39:36There was a chance I'd be able to conceive.
00:39:39I was supposed to be ecstatic.
00:39:40And I was.
00:39:43But I was also scared to death.
00:39:46It's hard to tell one from the other sometimes.
00:40:04Blessed morning?
00:40:10Rosa?
00:40:14Rosa?
00:40:20Rosa?
00:40:22Rosa?
00:40:25What on earth are you doing skulking around?
00:40:29Blessed morning, Mother.
00:40:32Going out for a morning ride?
00:40:35It's too early for your manipulative nonsense.
00:40:37What are you doing?
00:40:45Mother, as he blessed Ruth and Leah, he has blessed me this day.
00:40:50As he answered the prayers of Sarah, Rachel, and Rebecca, he has saved me from barrenness.
00:40:56By his hand, tea will make me fruitful.
00:41:04Blessed be his miracle.
00:41:08Wait for me in the parlor.
00:41:16When Becca got her period, her mom was so happy she started laughing and crying at the same time.
00:41:21I doubt Paula has ever cried.
00:41:23Or laughed.
00:41:24We're not telling fibs now, are we?
00:41:27You know the aunts will do their inspection.
00:41:30No.
00:41:31I wouldn't.
00:41:36Welcome to the sacred calling of womanhood.
00:41:40There's a lot of tedious bother to the whole enterprise.
00:41:45These are called wings.
00:41:46They go beneath your underpants and snap shut.
00:41:49Like this, yes?
00:41:51Change the pads every few hours.
00:41:53Cleanliness is godliness, especially so on these days.
00:41:55You should never smell it on yourself.
00:41:57Understood?
00:41:58Yes, ma'am.
00:42:04I was scared my first time, too.
00:42:07Thank you for your help.
00:42:11It's a woman's duty to pass on this kind of wisdom.
00:42:16Of course, no one bothered to do it for me.
00:42:28Tabitha made this for you before she passed.
00:42:34It's a cover for your pad.
00:42:48See if you can see the reload through a little wrong.
00:42:51It's a translation.
00:42:55As I was walking along the forest,
00:42:58I came upon an enchanted castle.
00:43:01I saw inside there were all these little girls locked up.
00:43:06Sweet, godly girls.
00:43:09They were all under the spell of wicked witches.
00:43:13Luckily, I had a magic ring.
00:43:15But the ring only had the power to save one little girl.
00:43:19So I looked at all of them very carefully.
00:43:21And out of the whole bunch, I chose you.
00:43:24Is that how I'll get a baby?
00:43:30You won't need to, sweetheart.
00:43:33You are going to have a baby grow inside your tummy.
00:43:36Don't you?
00:43:47Blessed morning!
00:43:48Agnes has blossomed.
00:43:52Praise be his mercy.
00:43:54How do you feel?
00:43:57A little sick to my stomach.
00:44:00It's a blessing to feel your body's miracle.
00:44:05Agnes will have some appointments now that she's eligible.
00:44:08Yes, ma'am.
00:44:08There's the new doctor, of course.
00:44:11And the proper tailor.
00:44:12And I'll enlist Dr. Grove for the teeth whitening.
00:44:15We need to make her as appealing as possible.
00:44:17Yes, ma'am.
00:44:18Congrats, Agnes.
00:44:26I prayed so hard.
00:44:29How about some coffee?
00:44:32Isn't that what women drink?
00:44:33Yes, please.
00:44:37It's completely obvious.
00:44:39I'm walking weird.
00:44:41You're perfect.
00:44:46You're filled with his divine light.
00:44:48And then a husband.
00:44:53Yes.
00:44:54We pray a kind one.
00:45:00Mmm.
00:45:03Real young woman.
00:45:04Your mother would be so proud of you.
00:45:08Rosa took care of Tabitha when she was dying.
00:45:13She sat next to her bed and fed her ice cubes.
00:45:20I heard they're redistricting.
00:45:21Enjoy your special day.
00:45:23Under his eye, sweetie pie.
00:45:25Under his eye, Rosa.
00:45:29Would people notice the difference?
00:45:31Would people notice the difference?
00:45:32That I was a woman now?
00:45:35Was it something you could sense?
00:45:37Like a wild animal in the grass?
00:45:40Or smell like the air before a storm?
00:45:44What's the day?
00:45:46Like a guardian walking past you in the summer heat.
00:46:05I like my blood.
00:46:07I Friedman and Myher, and he set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firmness to stand.
00:46:13Amen.
00:46:26Blessed day, Miss Agnes.
00:46:27Blessed day. Have you seen Becca?
00:46:29No, I'm sorry. I was praying while I waited for you.
00:46:32You don't have to do that. Just go inside like a normal person.
00:46:34Where are you going?
00:46:35Curiosity got Eve kicked out of the garden.
00:46:39But Aunt Lydia said I should stay with you.
00:46:40You can't come.
00:46:44Is this about yesterday?
00:46:53Aunt Gabbana?
00:47:15Hello?
00:47:16I'm sorry.
00:47:28Jack'ss.
00:47:31I'm sorry.
00:47:46Beautiful, show the light.
00:47:48Oh, blessed day.
00:47:50Girls, up, up, let's go.
00:47:59Girls, up, up.
00:48:00Someone's been the last.
00:48:02Let's go.
00:48:03Girls, up, let's go.
00:48:37Hurry.
00:48:40Ladies, we're so blessed.
00:48:43Let's go.
00:48:48Let's go.
00:48:54Let's go.
00:48:56Let's go.
00:49:02Agnes Mackenzie, what a day this is.
00:49:07Aunt Vidala, as he blessed Ruth and Leah, he has blessed me this day.
00:49:11As he answered the prayers of Sarah and Rachel and Rebecca,
00:49:15he has saved me from barrenness. By his hand he will make me fruitful.
00:49:20Praise be his mercy.
00:49:29Your blessing is a blessing upon us all.
00:49:39One of your own has been touched by his divine hand, girls. Praise be.
00:49:44Praise be, Agnes.
00:50:00Take my meatloaf. You need iron and folic acid and bioflavonoids.
00:50:05I'm stuffed all that.
00:50:09Is your menstrual powder soaked?
00:50:13No, not yet.
00:50:15Cool. You're so blessed.
00:50:20Well green means more work and dancing in public,
00:50:23and Agnes hates dancing in front of people.
00:50:25That could be a nightmare.
00:50:26Shut up, Chew.
00:50:28I crawled into your tights.
00:50:31I'm sure you'll be next.
00:50:34My breasts have been feeling pretty sore.
00:50:37They look bigger, don't they?
00:50:39My father always said I was blessed in that department.
00:50:44Bec, I can't ask Paul if I can come to your house today.
00:50:48I can say it's for green stuff.
00:50:50Up, girls.
00:50:51I have another fitting.
00:50:53Up, up, quick.
00:50:53Check your tail feathers.
00:50:56We need you in corrections.
00:50:59Come. Pearl girl needs your guidance.
00:51:01On your special day?
00:51:03What a drag.
00:51:06Corrections were done in a supper part of the school.
00:51:09The aunt's wing.
00:51:11This room reeked of the aunt's.
00:51:13What did she do?
00:51:14I don't know.
00:51:15It smelled like boiled wool and sweat.
00:51:18It smelled of certainty.
00:51:19If certainty had a smell.
00:51:22This young woman made a confession this morning.
00:51:26She has admitted to using the Lord's name in vain.
00:51:32Agnes.
00:51:35Aunt Lydia entrusted you to guide this girl as you would your own child.
00:51:40I'm sorry, Aunt Fadala.
00:51:43You have been blessed with womanhood today.
00:51:47Is that a challenge you are ready for?
00:51:49Yes, Aunt Fadala.
00:51:51Then show me.
00:51:53Teach your strained lamb.
00:51:55Get up!
00:51:57You don't lounge around while defending his name.
00:52:04What must a sinner do?
00:52:09Pay, Aunt Fadala.
00:52:12She must pay for her sins, Aunt Fadala.
00:52:14Pay for her sins! Pay for her sins!
00:52:17Tell her what she is, Agnes.
00:52:19Dirty words come from what?
00:52:25A dirty girl.
00:52:26Dirty girl! Dirty girl! Dirty girl! Dirty girl!!
00:52:29Corrections was our time to unleash.
00:52:32And we devoured it.

00:59:35aunt lydia yes it's time come along
00:59:53it's a chilly night dear
01:00:20come along
01:00:21dear
01:00:48We gather here tonight as this daughter of Gilead comes of age.
01:00:55Seeking his divine protection, and she will need it, his protection, for being a woman on God's green earth is
01:01:05no easy feat.
01:01:08In you go, dear. Rub-a-dub-dub.
01:01:19But we needn't look so far back to see the suffering of women, do we?
01:01:24That's why Gilead was created, to bring women back to their rightful place.
01:01:38The world would be lost without you. Who can bring forth God's children?
01:01:43Who will populate this world so his divine presence can be multiplied?
01:01:51Who... but you.
01:01:57You join your sisters now, in this holy endeavor.
01:02:00No, no, no, no...
01:02:25We're dead.
01:02:30Agnes Mackenzie, jettison all that came before this moment and embrace your new role.
01:02:36May the generations born to your womb be worthy in his eyes.
01:02:42Blessed be the fruit.
01:02:44Blessed be the fruit.
01:02:48May the Lord open.
01:02:59A token of your passage, may he bless your new path under his eye.
01:03:07Under his eye.
01:03:17Wonderful.
01:03:25Hi.
01:03:27Want some help?
01:03:31I thought I was going to drown in there.
01:03:34Me too.
01:03:36When I had my initiation.
01:03:39I feel like I'm still drowning.
01:03:43It's better that you're here now.
01:03:48Praise be.
01:03:49Yeah.
01:03:51I thought you were mad.
01:03:56This was your season and I was ruining it.
01:04:01I thought you didn't want me to be a green.
01:04:11I didn't want this for either of us.
01:04:15I didn't want this for either of us.
01:04:19I don't want to get married.
01:04:23I don't want a husband.
01:04:33I don't want a husband.
01:04:35But what else would you do?
01:04:41I don't know.
01:04:42I don't know.
01:04:43I don't know.
01:04:43I don't know.
01:04:51I don't know.
01:04:54Everything that happened before tonight
01:04:58Do you think that's real?
01:05:02What would you want to leave behind?
01:05:16It will be great
01:05:19Pushing strollers together
01:05:22No aunts following us around
01:05:26That does sound nice
01:05:29All will be well, Rebecca
01:05:32All manner of things will be well
01:05:38I'm freezing
01:05:43Yeah, come on
01:05:46Let's go home
01:06:03Let's go home
01:06:03Do you know what it means?
01:06:20we could be
01:06:33So, we can mix the food together.
01:06:35Let's look at it, that's really nice.
01:06:39Do you see what we have?
01:06:40I have to use it first.
01:06:43Maybe I can use it first.
01:06:43Let's get my finger on some kind of juice.
01:06:45I will use a little bit of juice.
01:06:49I don't know.
01:07:29I don't know.
01:07:49I don't know.
01:08:44I don't know.
01:08:52It made no sense to say you didn't want to get married.
01:08:56It was going to happen.
01:08:57Want had nothing to do with it.
01:09:01There were things to be wanted.
01:09:06Even in Gilead.
01:09:08Even if there were consequences.
01:09:17Blessed morning.
01:09:19Blessed morning.
01:09:22Blessed morning.
01:09:29Pray you know smoking is not allowed, right?
01:09:36Yes, Miss Agnes.
01:09:39My apologies.
01:09:46Congratulations on your initiation.
01:09:55I better get inside, Miss Agnes.
01:10:05Sometimes you couldn't help but one.
01:10:08Even if you tried your best to stop it.
01:10:13Well, there is no point to it.
01:10:17All that wanting.
01:10:19All that wanting.
01:10:26Agnes, finally.
01:10:33Your father is home.
01:10:35He'll be pleased to hear of your development.
01:10:56You look so pretty this morning.
01:11:01He's in the parlor.
01:11:13All these things need to be fixed.
01:11:16If they're temp controlled, then I think the transport is going to be fine.
01:11:19It's certainly vital.
01:11:21Blessed morning, Angel.
01:11:32Blessed morning, Angel.
01:11:32Blessed morning, Angel.

01:11:48Blessed morning, Angel.
01:11:57Father, as he blessed Ruth and Leah, he has blessed me this day.
01:12:01As he answered the prayers of Sarah, Rachel, and Rebecca, he has saved me from barrenness.
01:12:07By his hand, he will make me fruitful.
01:12:11I know he will.
01:12:18Blessed be the fruit, Agnes.
01:12:20May the Lord open, Daddy.
