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

00:03:34Zilla 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

00:05:18bye 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
00:05:48let's...
00:05:49let's...
00:05:50I don't know.
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.
00:06:42I got you!
00:06:44I got you!
00:06:44I got you!
00:06:45I got you!
00:06:46I got you!
00:06:49I got you!
00:06:49When I met you in the restaurant,
00:06:54I was no damn tongue.
00:07:02You asked me what's my pleasure.
00:07:05I'm moving my pleasure.
00:07:08Come on, girls.
00:07:09Quick, please.
00:07:10And tell you of my dreaming.
00:07:16Dreaming is free.
00:07:17Quiet, quiet, quiet.
00:07:19Dreaming.
00:07:22Dreaming is free.
00:07:23I don't want you 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.
00:07:47Friends.
00:07:48These men.
00:07:50Do you know what crime they committed?
00:07:54Yes, Shunammite.
00:07:56Rape.
00:07:57Aunt 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.
00:08:06These.
00:08:08Rapists.
00:08:08You say rapists.
00:08:10Rapists, yes.
00:08:12Thank you, Shunammite.
00:08:14I'm not a raper.
00:08:15I didn't know that.
00:08:16Friends, it's a ghastly story.
00:08:19These men stole a young girl.
00:08:21Much 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.
00:08:37And they 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.
00:08:57Just 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?
00:09:37Predo, the sprawling of anger, weird issues.
00:09:51I love you.
00:09:56I love you.
00:10:06I love you guys.
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.
00:13:14The andes.
00:13:29He intent the erg Š±Š°Ńon accountable for the family.
00:13:32The horse.
00:13:36Roll in the ass.
00:13:36Nice work Constance.
00:13:39Co-chairs.
00:13:51Pretty daisies, Hilda.
00:13:53Really?
00:13:55Thank you, Aunt EstƩe.
00:13:56They're actually black-eyed Susan.
00:13:57Should you be thanking me?
00:14:00No.
00:14:01No, thank him.
00:14:02Aunt EstƩe.
00:14:03Making me able, and for the flowers he made of the thread.
00:14:09Pray forgive me.
00:14:10You are forgiven.
00:14:12Just be mindful around Alphidala.
00:14:17Aunt Gabbana!
00:14:18Blessed morning.
00:14:24Agnes.
00:14:25Aunt Lydia would like to speak with you.
00:14:32Come along.
00:14:35Agnes, get up, please.
00:14:37I'm sure it's good news.
00:14:39Back to work.
00:14:40Walk.
00:14:46No.
00:14:48No.
00:15:00No.
00:15:08I love her.
00:15:12By tradition, only dead people are allowed to have statues.
00:15:16I have been given one while still alive.
00:15:21Praise be your works, Aunt Lydia.
00:15:23I have been prematurely petrified.
00:15:31Agnes Mackenzie, how the time goes by.
00:15:36I have been watching you for quite a while now.
00:15:40Why, Aunt Lydia?
00:15:42Soon to be eligible.
00:15:44May God make me truly worthy.
00:15:46Ah, you will be rewarded.
00:15:48If you are free of sin, of course.
00:15:51Do you know why this statue was erected?
00:15:56So you can always be watching over us?
00:15:58Yes. We inspire the world with our good works, Agnes.
00:16:02Do you agree?
00:16:04Yes, Aunt Lydia.
00:16:05Excellent.
00:16:06I have good work that needs doing.
00:16:09Helping a new friend feel welcome.
00:16:17Agnes, this is Daisy.
00:16:19One of my precious, precious pearls recently arrived.
00:16:23Daisy may be joining your class.
00:16:27She's going to be a plum?
00:16:29Perhaps.
00:16:30I'd like you to show her around.
00:16:32Make her feel comfortable.
00:16:34Be her shepherdess.
00:16:36It's an honor for you, Agnes.
00:16:38Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
00:16:40Daisy, be a good girl and stay with Agnes.
00:16:43Lambs, don't stray.
00:16:45Yes, Aunt Lydia.
00:16:47Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
00:16:50Wonderful.
00:16:50Go in grace.
00:17:02Blessed fruit.
00:17:04May the Lord open.
00:17:14Painting and sketching.
00:17:22Music classroom.
00:17:29Comportments this way.
00:17:30Domestic management is upstairs with Aunt L'Oreal.
00:17:33Hospitality.
00:17:34Decorating.
00:17:35Culinary arts.
00:17:37Fiber arts, like embroidery.
00:17:39Vase making.
00:17:40You can make a tablecloth, if you dare.
00:17:44And scripture class.
00:17:46Price be his word.
00:17:49Weirdo.
00:17:51Aunt Lydia didn't tell me much about you.
00:17:55Did she tell you anything about me?
00:17:58Nothing.
00:18:00Miss Agnes.
00:18:10Did she ask you to watch me?
00:18:14Of course.
00:18:15Miss Agnes.
00:18:17To learn how to behave properly.
00:18:22Discipline and corrections are in the on-swing.
00:18:25You only go there when you earn it.
00:18:31And lunch.
00:18:32Blessed be his bounty.
00:18:38This is the dining room.
00:18:40Quite obviously.
00:18:43Let's eat.
00:18:46You cannot be mistress of a house.
00:18:49Unless you are the mistress of yourself.
00:18:52Do you understand me, girls?
00:18:54Yes, Aunt Vidala.
00:18:57It is an offense to God to waste food with poor preparation.
00:19:01If your meal is unacceptable, speak firmly to your Martha.
00:19:05Do you understand me, girls?
00:19:08Yes, Aunt Vidala.
00:19:10Friends.
00:19:11Let us give thanks to him.
00:19:16And?
00:19:18God is great.
00:19:19God is good.
00:19:20Thank you, God, for our food.
00:19:22By his blessings we are fed.
00:19:24Give us, Lord, our daily bread.
00:19:26Amen.
00:19:29Girls.
00:19:31You may socialize.
00:19:47What is all this, then?
00:19:50This is Daisy.
00:19:51Aunt Lydia asked me to make her feel welcome.
00:19:54Hey.
00:19:56It's a blessing to meet you all.
00:19:59Get out.
00:20:09We're enjoying very fine weather.
00:20:12By God's blessing.
00:20:17It's a high pressure system, I think.
00:20:20Daisy.
00:20:21Craig.
00:20:22Where do you hail from?
00:20:23Toronto.
00:20:25Canada.
00:20:26Miss.
00:20:27Shunameh.
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.
00:21:05Excuse me, my God.
00:21:08Daisy.
00:21:10Do you like soft serve ice cream?
00:21:14Food is one of his miracles.
00:21:16They have it here.
00:21:17Strawberry and vanilla.
00:21:19Hold, I 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.
00:21:55What 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.
00:22:13Becca?
00:22:14Your mark is here to collect you.
00:22:16Yes, Aunt Lydia.
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.
00:22:37Well, I can't wait to have a husband.
00:22:39Becca.
00:22:40Free.
00:22:40Come along.
00:22:41Shake a leg.
00:22:43I'm going Grace.
00:22:46I'm Grace.
00:22:46I'm Grace, I go.
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.
00:23:15You'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.
00:23:31I can't think they have ever seen anything!
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.
00:24:29Or 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.
00:25:39Yes, ma'am.
00:25:47I 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?
00:26:03No, 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.
00:26:22Good evening.
00:26:26Thats a good thing.
00:26:41Do you mind if you have a ball?
00:26:43Yes, ma'am.
00:26:48Good evening.
00:26:51Good evening.
00:26:51Oh, my gosh.
00:27:19Assembly time I plumbed is too late.
00:27:21Two lines, two lines.
00:27:24Posture, Agnes.
00:27:26I'm sorry, Ophidala.
00:27:32Plums, please assemble in the dining hall.
00:27:35Hurry along.
00:27:36Kings, to your classes.
00:27:37Cha-cha.
00:27:51Time to call.
00:28:03That's the damn tires we miss.
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.
00:30:06What?
00:30:07Where said the pay?
00:30:10Why is it?
00:30:12Why is it?
00:30:17Why is it?
00:30:19Why is it?
00:30:21Why is it?
00:30:22Why is it?
00:30:35I am so proud of the women you are becoming.
00:30:48I am here!
00:30:50I am here!
00:30:51I am here!
00:30:55Oh my God!
00:30:59I am here!
00:31:00Come on!
00:31:01Here is what I am!
00:31:04Here is what I am!
00:31:06Justice!
00:31:07Justice!
00:31:08Justice!
00:31:08Oh my God!
00:31:10Frank, are you okay?
00:31:12I am fine.
00:31:14Please be your concern.
00:31:37Daisy? Daisy?
00:31:42Fuck. What the fuck was that?
00:31:45They broke the rules.
00:31:46They cut it off. I 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. Don't tell.
00:32:05Oh, sweetie.
00:32:07Agnes, 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.
00:33:07I took his name in vain.
00:33:10Agnes, there'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.
00:34:38God is merciful.
00:34:42Beyond's not so much sometimes.
00:34:46Are 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.
00:35:55She's trying to kill her.
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.
00:37:24Oh, my life
00:37:28It's changing every day
00:37:31Every bus of the way
00:37:38All of my dreams
00:37:42It's never quite as it seems
00:37:45Never quite as it seems
00:37:51I know I felt like this before
00:37:55But now I'm feeling it even more
00:37:59Because it came from me
00:38:06Then I open up and see
00:38:10The person falling here is me
00:38:13A different way to be
00:38:39It was still cold
00:38:41But I remember the nights were getting shorter
00:38:44The 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 yet
00:38:54My real mom
00:38:57That would come soon
00:38:59I had no idea how much that would change things
00:39:04Without calendars
00:39:05You learn to mark time in other ways
00:39:07It was when I became eligible
00:39:10And when I met Daisy
00:39:13It was when it all started
00:39:16The aunts told us lots of girls never blossom
00:39:18Because 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
00:39:26From God himself
00:39:28I was one of the chosen ones
00:39:31Me
00:39:34Why 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 Mourney
00:40:10Rosa?
00:40:13Rosa?
00:40:25What on earth are you doing skulking around?
00:40:29Blessed Mourney, 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?
00:40:44Mother
00:40:45As he blessed Ruth and Leah
00:40:47He has blessed me this day
00:40:50As he answered the prayers of Sarah, Rachel, and Rebecca
00:40:53He has saved me from barrenness
00:40:56By his hand he 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
00:41:17Her mom was so happy
00:41:18She started laughing and crying
00:41:19At 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
00:41:54Especially so on these days
00:41:55You should never smell it on yourself
00:41:57Understood?
00:41:58Yes, ma'am
00:42:03I was scared my first time, too
00:42:07Thank you
00:42:08Thank 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
00:42:40Thank you
00:42:41Thank you
00:42:48See if you can see the reload through the rock
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
00:43:05Sweet, godly girls
00:43:08They 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
00:43:46Blessed morning
00:43:49Agnes 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
00:44:06That she's eligible
00:44:07Yes, ma'am
00:44:08There's the new doctor, of course
00:44:10And 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
00:44:25I 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
00:44:38I'm walking weird
00:44:41You're perfect
00:44:45You're filled with his divine light
00:44:48And then a husband
00:44:53Yes
00:44:53We pray a kind one
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?
00:45:32That 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?
00:45:41Like the air before a storm?
00:45:44What's it be?
00:45:46Like a guardian walking past you
00:45:48In the summer heat
00:46:08He set my feet on a rock
00:46:10And gave me a furnace to stand
00:46:13Amen
00:46:26Blessed day, Miss Agnes
00:46:27Blessed day
00:46:28Have you seen Becca?
00:46:29No, I'm sorry
00:46:30I was praying while I waited for you
00:46:31You don't have to do that
00:46:32Just go inside like a normal person
00:46:34Where are you going?
00:46:35Curiosity got Eve kicked out of the garden
00:46:38But Aunt Lydia said I should stay with you
00:46:41You can't come
00:46:44Is this about yesterday?
00:46:48It's not done
00:46:49Hurry along
00:46:53Aunt Gabana
00:46:55Did you get this far all next along?
00:46:55Father?
00:46:56Well
00:46:58Yin
00:46:59Fair
00:47:00?
00:47:05Er
00:47:15Wait
00:47:16Oh
00:47:17Wait
00:47:20Okay
00:47:21All right
00:47:25I was like
00:47:46Beautiful, show the light.
00:47:48Oh, blessed day.
00:47:50Girls, up, up, let's go.
00:47:59Girls, up, up, someone's going to last.
00:48:02Let's go.
00:48:05Girls, up, up, let's go.
00:48:09Girls, up, let's go.
00:48:12Girls, up, let's go.
00:48:23Girls, up, let's go.
00:48:50Girls, up, let's go.
00:49:01Agnes Mackenzie, what a day this is.
00:49:07Aunt Vodala, 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, he has saved me from barrenness.
00:49:17By 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.
00:49:43Praise be.
00:49:44Praise be, guys.
00:49:49Praise be, guys.
00:49:51Praise be.
00:49:52Praise be.
00:49:53Oh, my gosh.
00:49:55You're so lucky.
00:50:01Take my meatloaf.
00:50:02You need iron and folic acid and bioflavonoids.
00:50:05I'm stuffed.
00:50:06I'm stuffed, hold up.
00:50:09Is your menstrual paddle soaked?
00:50:13No, not yet.
00:50:16Cool.
00:50:17You're so blessed.
00:50:20While green means more work and dancing in public and Agnes hates dancing in front of people, that could be
00:50:25a nightmare.
00:50:26Shut up, she'll crawl 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.
00:51:00Pearl girl needs your guidance.
00:51:01On your special day?
00:51:03What a drag.
00:51:06Corrections were done in a separate 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.
00:51:24This morning.
00:51:26She has admitted to using the Lord's name in vain.
00:51:32Agnes.
00:51:35Aunt Lydia trusted you to guide this girl as you would your own child.
00:51:40I'm sorry, Aunt Padala.
00:51:43You have been blessed with womanhood today.
00:51:47Is that a challenge you are ready for?
00:51:50Yes, Aunt Padala.
00:51:51Then show me.
00:51:53Teach your strained lamb.
00:51:55Get up!
00:51:57Don't lounge around while defending his name.
00:52:04What must a sinner do?
00:52:09Pay, Aunt Padala.
00:52:12She must pay for her sins, Aunt Padala.
00:52:14Pay for her sins! Pay for her sins!
00:52:17Tell her what she is, Agnes.
00:52:20Dirty words come from what?
00:52:23But...
00:52:25A dirty girl.
00:52:26Dirty girl! Dirty girl!
00:52:29Corrections was our time to unleash.

00:59:53it's a chilly night dear
01:00:20come along dear
01:00:21come along dear
01:00:48we gather here tonight
01:00:50as this daughter of gilead
01:00:52comes of age, seeking his divine protection. And she will need it, his protection. For
01:01:02being a woman on God's green earth is no easy feat. In 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? That's why Gilead
01:01:26was created. To bring women back to their rightful place. The world would be lost without
01:01:40you. Who can bring forth God's children? Who will populate this world so his divine presence
01:01:47can be multiplied? Who but you? You join your sisters now in this holy endeavor.
01:02:30Agnes Mackenzie, jettison all that came before this moment and embrace your new role. May the
01:02:37generations born to your womb be worthy in his eyes. Blessed be the fruit.
01:02:44Blessed be the fruit.
01:02:46Blessed be the fruit. May the Lord open.
01:02:59A token of your passage. May he bless your new path. Under his eye.
01:03:06Under his eye.
01:03:09Congratulations.
01:03:16Wonderful.
01:03:24Hi.
01:03:27Want some help?
01:03:31I thought I was gonna 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.
01:03:51I 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.
01:04:08I 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.
01:04:35But what else would you do?
01:04:41I don't know.
01:04:48Aren't Lydia said we get to leave everything behind?
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.
01:05:17It 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.
01:05:44Come on.
01:05:46Let's go home.
01:05:47I'm fine.
01:05:47I'm fine.
01:06:02Okay.
01:06:14Here we go.
01:06:59I don't know.
01:07:07I don't know.
01:07:33I don't know.
01:08:03I don't know.
01:08:17I don't know.
01:08:20I don't know.
01:09:16I don't know.
01:09:19I don't know.
01:09:20Blessed morning.
01:09:29Pray you know smoking is not allowed, right?
01:09:35Yes, Miss Agnes.
01:09:38My apologies.
01:09:46Congratulations on your initiation.
01:09:55Better get inside, Miss Agnes.
01:10:05Sometimes you couldn't help but one, even if you tried your best to stop it.
01:10:14But there is no point to it.
01:10:17But there is no point to it.
01:10:18All that wanting.
01:10:26Agnes.
01:10:27Agnes, finally.
01:10:33Your father is home.
01:10:34You'll be pleased to hear of your development.
01:10:56You look so pretty this morning.
01:11:01He's in the parlor.
01:11:02He's in the parlor.
01:11:11He's in the parlor.
01:11:13All this house.
01:11:13He's in the parlor.
01:11:14All these things need to be fixed.
01:11:16If they're temp controlled, then I think the transport is going to be fine.
01:11:18It's certainly vital.
01:11:21Blessed 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,
01:12:04he has saved me from barrenness.
01:12:07By his hand, he will make me fruitful.
01:12:11I know he will.
01:12:17Blessed be the fruit, Agnes.
01:12:20May the Lord open, Daddy.
01:12:24Going to the chapel and we're gonna get married.
01:12:31Going to the chapel and we're gonna get married.
