Transcript
00:01This is Radio Free Boston with an update.
00:04Iliad, of course.
00:09We're fighting for you.
00:13For everyone still inside, keep your head down and stay safe.
00:16For our main eight heroes behind the lines, tonight's message is arrived.
00:20Turn your dial to 101.6.
00:2399.2.
00:26This is Radio Free America, forever the sound of freedom.
00:30There is a possibility of recent sanctions against the Gilead State.
01:16You want to know what it was like for me, growing up in Gilead?
01:22I'm ashamed to say that I believed in Gilead once.
01:25I guess it's easier to accept a story, even a childish one, rather than believe that the people around you
01:33are monsters.
01:39Blessed morning, Agnes.
01:42In this story I'm telling, I'm not really sure what year it was.
01:46Sorry.
01:47It's hard to remember actual dates because girls were forbidden to have calendars.
01:52Just reading one could cost you a finger.
01:56Manila, it's going to be doing your hair now.
02:04You learn to mark time in other ways.
02:08I know I still had my dollhouse.
02:10It looked just like our real house.
02:14It had my bedroom and the dining room.
02:17A wife's parlor.
02:18Even an attic where the Martha slept.
02:20They're in the badlands with me.
02:23They're in the city getting out of the breeze.
02:27But the truth falls back from me.
02:30I'm afraid.
02:35I was a plum.
02:38I didn't have my period yet.
02:40In my world then, I made all the difference.
02:45It was all we wanted.
02:47And it also terrified us.
03:10I know what to do.
03:12Now that I've got a man like you.
03:15So I'm a guy.
03:18It can be so cool.
03:19Baby, don't be cool.
03:27The Commander doll was always doing very important work.
03:31Just like my father.
03:33Keeping us safe from heretics and May Day terrorists.
03:51The Martha dolls were always busy.
03:54But at night they would let the little girl doll sit in the kitchen with them.
03:59They would make her cinnamon toast and they would all talk.
04:09There is a wife doll.
04:11In blue, of course.
04:13That would be Paula.
04:15Who was my new stepmother then.
04:18Blessed morning, Agnes dear.
04:20Rosa, how's your leg?
04:21Please tell me it's better.
04:23Yes, ma'am.
04:25It's kind of you to ask.
04:26Praise be his mercy.
04:29The high dusting is catching up with us, I'm afraid.
04:32Yes, ma'am.
04:33I'll do that after the Commander's meeting.
04:40Thank you, Zilla.
04:42Zilla was new.
04:44Her tongue was removed as punishment before she was posted with us.
04:48Probably for blasphemy.
04:50That was a big one for some wives.
04:53Well, she's certainly an improvement.
04:55That last one we had was Chatty Cathy.
04:58Sometimes, when I was playing with the dollhouse, I would lock the Paula doll in the attic.
05:04Which was not nice.
05:06The Paula doll would pound on the door and scream, but the little girl doll would pay no attention.
05:11And sometimes she would laugh.
05:13Is that the new skirt?
05:17Up then.
05:21Well, don't you look pretty as a picture.
05:28Mother.
05:31I was worried to make you look gawky, but no.
05:40Praise be his mercy for not making me look too gawky.
05:46I'm an irritant to Paula.
05:50She wants me married and gone.
05:53I was born in the sinful before world.
05:57Please keep the counter clean.
05:59We don't want to get hands again.
06:01Yes, ma'am.
06:05Don't slouch, dear.
06:07Slouching girls get fat husbands.
06:25What's the morning, Miss Agnes?
06:30Under his eyes. Goodbye.
06:32Bye, Rosa.
06:35Bye.
06:49Once, when we were pinks, I smiled at a boy on the playground.
06:53Theon's taped my mouth shut and made me stand in the dining hall for two days, holding the sign for
06:58a slut.
06:59That was for smiling. I wonder what would happen if I kissed one.
07:40When we became plums, we started going on the field trips. They were fun. Some parts more than others.
08:08Theon's taped my mouth shut and made me stand in the room.
08:24Come along, girls.
08:27Come on, girls.
08:28Quickly.
08:36Quiet, quiet, quiet.
08:43I don't want you to live on charity.
08:50Let's just read your easy fantasy.
08:59Gross.
09:01Hold it enough.
09:02God's justice is beautiful.
09:05I'm sorry, Aunt Vidala.
09:07Friends, these men.
09:11Do you know what crime they committed?
09:15Yes, Shinamite.
09:17Rape.
09:18Aunt Vidala, that's what the red X is for.
09:20It's for rape.
09:21Praise be.
09:23Friends, these men.
09:26These horrible men.
09:28These...
09:29Rapists.
09:30You say rapists.
09:32Rapists, yes.
09:34Thank you, Shinamite.
09:36I'm not rapist.
09:37I didn't know that.
09:39Friends, it's a ghastly story.
09:41These men stole a young girl, much like yourselves.
09:45This young girl was a kind who liked being the center of attention.
09:49A spirited girl.
09:51That kind of girl often earns a violent end for herself.
09:55Praise be his judgment.
09:57Praise be his judgment.
09:58These men saw this girl.
10:00They were overcome by their urges.
10:04They came in the night and took her from her own bed.
10:09What about her guardians?
10:11Some of them were her guardians.
10:14The urges of men are terrible things.
10:16Those urges must be curbed.
10:18That is the burden that God has personally laid upon each of you.
10:22Just by existing, we were mortally dangerous to otherwise perfectly good men.
10:28They were helpless to resist us.
10:31Even us.
10:32The daughters of commanders.
10:35The most godly of girls.
10:57I was a precious flower.
11:01Then why did I sometimes feel like a prized pig?
11:36At the Aunt Lydia school, pink dresses were for little girls.
11:40Plum dresses were for older girls like us.
11:44Predestined to marry high Gilead commanders once we became eligible.
11:47Which only happened if God blessed us with a period.
11:51Then we became greens.
11:52And got pins.
11:56Will this be the fruit?
11:59You're insane.
12:00The skirt looks fine.
12:01May the Lord open.
12:02Don't bother.
12:02Even God knows Paula has no taste.
12:05Come along, friend.
12:09Becca was the first person I met when we moved here from Colorado.
12:13She was my best friend.
12:14Except we weren't allowed to have best friends.
12:17The aunt said that best friends led to keeping secrets.
12:19And secrets led to disobedience.
12:21And disobedient girls became women who were immoral.
12:24Obviously.
12:25We've been sent good weather.
12:27His blessing.
12:29You have your dress fitting?
12:32After lunch.
12:33Becca was already green.
12:35She was getting ready to be matched.
12:37She was moving on without me.
12:39But we didn't talk about that.
12:41This will be our third seamstress.
12:43My mother thinks if she gets the bodice just right, everyone will forget my dad's a dentist.
12:48Maybe you should dress as a tooth.
12:50Blessed day.
12:51Blessed day.
12:52We've been sent good weather.
12:53But I received what's wrong.
12:55Very, very cute hair.
12:57Yeah, I definitely agree.
12:58Thanks.
12:59You're Martha.
13:00Blessed be yours, too.
13:01Seriously.
13:01My Martha's socks.
13:02I look like I have a bad head.
13:04Shunammite.
13:04Chitter, chatter, chitter, chatter.
13:06Flap your tongue around and you're likely to lose it.
13:09Yes, Aunt Badala.
13:10Have a graceful day, girls.
13:13More haste.
13:14Blessed be.
13:17Aunt Lydia was a legend.
13:19Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
13:20She had been worshipped, then vilified.
13:22Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
13:23Then worshipped again.
13:25Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
13:26In the four years since the War of Massachusetts, the purges had happened.
13:31As always, those remaining were able to shape history as they liked.
13:35Some people were hung.
13:37And some had schools named after them.
13:43At one time, we, too, were foolish, disobedient, deceived, and enslaved by all kinds of passions and envy.
13:51We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another.
13:55But when the kindness and love of God, our Savior, appeared, he saved us.
14:01Not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.
14:07White was for the Pearl Girls.
14:09They were new arrivals from outside of Gilead.
14:12Converts were a godly struggle.
14:16Aunt Lydia and her missionaries gathered them from all over the world.
14:20They were mostly runaways.
14:22Of course, they had to be young, and possibly fertile.
14:27Weirdos.
14:34The aunts said the Pearl Girls came eager for a new start.
14:38They were even more eager to prove their godliness by telling on you to the aunts.
14:42We all knew someone who had been ratted up by a Pearl Girl.
14:45Amen.
14:47The passion of the converted.
14:49What a pain in the ass.
15:14Nice work, Constance.
15:30Pretty daisies, Hilda.
15:33Really?
15:34Thank you, Aunt Este.
15:35They're actually black-eyed Susan.
15:37Should you be thanking me?
15:39No.
15:40No.
15:41No.
15:41Thank him.
15:42Aunt Este.
15:43For making me able, and for the flowers he made, and that's rad.
15:49Pray forgive me.
15:50You are forgiven.
15:52Just be mindful around all the dollar.
15:57Aunt Gabbana.
15:59Blessed morning.
16:06Agnes, Aunt Lydia would like to speak with you.
16:14Come along.
16:16Agnes, get up, please.
16:18I'm sure it's good news.
16:20Back to work.
16:21Back to work.
16:29Back to work.
16:55By tradition, only dead people are allowed to have statues.
16:59I have been given one while still alive.
17:04Praise be your works, Aunt Lydia.
17:07I have been prematurely petrified.
17:15Agnes McKenzie, how the time goes by.
17:20I have been watching you for quite a while now.
17:24Why, Aunt Lydia?
17:26Soon to be eligible.
17:28May God make me truly worthy.
17:31Ah, you will be rewarded.
17:33If you are free of sin, of course.
17:36Do you know why this statue was erected?
17:41So you can always be watching over us.
17:44Yes.
17:45We inspire the world with our good works, Agnes.
17:48Do you agree?
17:49Yes, Aunt Lydia.
17:51Excellent.
17:51I have good work that needs doing.
17:54Helping a new friend feel welcome.
18:03Agnes, this is Daisy.
18:06One of my precious, precious pearls recently arrived.
18:10Daisy may be joining your class.
18:14She's going to be a plum?
18:16Perhaps.
18:17I'd like you to show her around.
18:19Make her feel comfortable.
18:21Be her shepherdess.
18:23It's an honor for you, Agnes.
18:25Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
18:28Daisy, be a good girl and stay with Agnes.
18:31Lambs, don't stray.
18:33Yes, Aunt Lydia.
18:35Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
18:38Wonderful.
18:39Go in grace.
18:51Blessed fruit.
18:52May the Lord open.
19:03Painting and sketching.
19:05Yes.
19:11Music classroom.
19:19Comportments this way.
19:20Domestic management is upstairs with Aunt L'Oreal.
19:23Hospitality, decorating, culinary arts.
19:27Fiber arts, like embroidery, lace making.
19:31You can make a tablecloth, if you dare.
19:34And scripture class.
19:36Praise be his word.
19:40Weirdo.
19:42Aunt Lydia didn't tell me much about you.
19:46Did she tell you anything about me?
19:50Nothing.
19:51Miss Agnes.
20:02Did she ask you to watch me?
20:06Of course.
20:07Miss Agnes.
20:10To learn how to behave properly.
20:15Discipline and corrections are in the on-swing.
20:17You only go there when you earn it.
20:24And lunch.
20:25Blessed be his bounty.
20:31This is the dining room.
20:33Pretty obviously.
20:36Let's eat.
20:40You cannot be mistress of a house unless you are the mistress of yourself.
20:46Do you understand me, girls?
20:48Yes, Aunt Madala.
20:51It is an offense to God to waste food with poor preparation.
20:56If your meal is unacceptable, speak firmly to your Martha.
21:00Do you understand me, girls?
21:03Yes, Aunt Madala.
21:05Friends, let us give thanks to him.
21:12And?
21:13God is great.
21:15God is good.
21:16Thank you, God, for our food.
21:18Highest blessings we are fed.
21:20Give us, Lord, our daily bread.
21:22Amen.
21:26Girls, you may socialize.
21:45What is all this, then?
21:47This is Daisy.
21:49Aunt Lydia asked me to make her feel welcome.
21:51Hey.
21:53It's a blessing to meet you all.
21:57Get out.
22:07We're enjoying very fine weather.
22:10By God's blessing.
22:15It's a high-pressure system, I think.
22:18Daisy, pray.
22:20Where do you hail from?
22:22Toronto.
22:23Canada.
22:25Miss.
22:26Shunami.
22:28That's a beautiful name.
22:30It is.
22:33I imagine Canada is very different from Gilead.
22:37Toronto has been forsaken by God and defiled by Satan.
22:43It is suffocating in sin.
22:48So, do you miss it?
22:52I pray it won't be swallowed whole by the earth.
23:00May he hear your prayer.
23:10Daisy, do you like soft serve ice cream?
23:15Food is one of his miracles.
23:17They have it here.
23:18Strawberry and vanilla.
23:20Hold up, we'll take you.
23:22Yeah, I can make you a swirl cone.
23:24I'm sort of an expert.
23:26Aunt Lydia urged me to stay with Miss Agnes.
23:28Ice cream is definitely one of his miracles.
23:32And you wouldn't want to insult God.
23:37You should get some.
23:39Come on.
23:56They stuck you with the pearl girl.
23:58What did you do wrong?
23:59She didn't do anything.
24:01This is unprecedented.
24:03So, what did it Lydia said?
24:05She said she's new here.
24:08I'm just supposed to be a shepherdess.
24:09I don't like her.
24:10She didn't seem very nice.
24:11Well, you can't trust her.
24:13She'll tell Aunt Lydia everything.
24:14She's a pearl girl.
24:17Becca?
24:18Your Martha is here to collect you.
24:21Yes, on this day.
24:25Am I fitting?
24:27Pray for me.
24:28I wish I was green this season.
24:30I wish we all were together.
24:34It's starting to move very, very fast.
24:38It's a dress.
24:39Not a husband.
24:42Not yet.
24:43Well, I can't wait to have a husband.
24:45Becca, pray.
24:46Come along.
24:46Shake a leg.
24:48Go with Grace.
24:51In Grace, I go.
25:10You should tell Aunt her.
25:12You're a pearl girl.
25:14For what?
25:15Just say that she gossips or has a foul tongue.
25:18Or that she ran off to go get ice cream.
25:20That could be plausible.
25:21She'd be punished.
25:23You're an awful person.
25:24Stop.
25:25I didn't say to make her a gender traitor or anything.
25:28Just something small.
25:33Agnes, I know that you are very, very nice, but it's time to plumb up and get her before
25:38she can see you.
25:59Cinnamon toast.
26:01Praise be his bounty.
26:02Mm-hmm.
26:08Is it awful?
26:10God never sends us more than we can bear.
26:13Sometimes he does get close, though.
26:18Becca had her final fitting.
26:20She must be happy to be getting a new dress.
26:24I'm sure she looks perfect.
26:26She's a beautiful girl.
26:29She could get an offer from a commander at the dance.
26:33Her dad could.
26:36She could marry one who lives in Wyoming.
26:39Or anywhere.
26:42Not Maryland.
26:44She won't move far if she marries a high commander.
26:47They need to live near the capital.
26:49She could marry one who doesn't let his wife have any friends.
26:55Try not to think about it.
26:59Rosa, how did you meet your husband?
27:03Before, I mean.
27:08We met in a bookstore.
27:12Almost everyone we knew then was meeting online, on Tinder, Bumble.
27:18We met in the cookbook section.
27:21That's Tinder.
27:24It's not something you're ever going to need to know, Pumpkin.
27:28Blessed evening, ma'am.
27:34The commander will be home Thursday.
27:35Has some things for the Marthas to do.
27:39You said your leg was better.
27:41It is, ma'am.
27:44Good.
27:46Head up to the third floor.
27:47We'll start there.
27:51Yes, ma'am.
28:01I grew up riding.
28:03When a horse would come up late, my father would shoot it.
28:09It was hard.
28:12But it was the merciful thing to do.
28:15Haven't I told you that story?
28:18No, mother.
28:24They learned that sometimes you have to be hard.
28:29Sometimes you have to cut off weak branches and bothersome ones.
28:34You'll understand when you're running your own household.
28:39Blessed evening.
28:43Blessed evening.
28:44Blessed evening.
28:45Blessed evening.
28:57Blessed evening.

35:12But I didn't think it'd be like that.
35:15Like what?
35:26Thank you for taking care of me.
35:32When Aunt Lydia gives you an assignment, you do it.
35:37Miss Agnes, I am so sorry.
35:40I committed blasphemy.
35:43You were unwell.
35:45I took his name in vain.
35:47Agnes, there is no excuse.
35:51I know I must confess.
35:54Okay.
35:57Aunt Lydia is in charge of punishing pro girls.
