00:01Previously on The Handmaid's Tale.
00:03For those who are truly righteous, he sometimes sends a refuge.
00:07The wheelers arranged all of this?
00:09Yeah, as soon as they knew you might be staying.
00:12Isn't it incredible? It's a full birthing suite.
00:15I'm going for a walk.
00:17Absolutely not.
00:18You need to rest. Your baby needs to rest.
00:21Go to your room.
00:23Come on, come on. Make him make it.
00:25Right there.
00:26Get him!
00:31He's not fighting you! Stop it! He's not fucking fighting you!
00:36I never gave up hope.
00:39And you never gave up hope.
00:41Because we knew that we would find each other again.
00:45June Osborn was apprehended by one of my teams in No Man's Land.
00:50They don't want him! Dump him!
00:51No, no, no! We saved it again!
00:53No, no, no! Where are you taking it?
00:55What's gonna happen to her?
00:56I'm going to send Ezra to No Man's Land
00:58and have him deal with her there.
01:01I want to go with Ezra.
01:03Bear witness.
01:09Serena, what the fuck are you doing?
01:11Just drive!
01:36Where the fuck are we going?
01:37Just keep driving.
01:38Where?
01:39To Toronto?
01:40To Gilead?
01:41Is that what you're doing so they can fucking kill me there, Serena?
01:45What about Luke, Serena?
01:47What are those guys gonna do to him?
01:54Jesus Christ!
01:56I'm sorry.
01:58I'm sorry.
01:59I'm sorry.
01:59I'm sorry.
01:59You're fucking sorry?!
02:01Fuck this!

03:01Of course you are.
03:03Jesus Christ.
03:05Would you give this to me?
03:07Waving it around.
03:08When did it start?
03:09I don't know.
03:10A while ago.
03:11Has your water broken?
03:12Mm-hmm.
03:13Um, how far apart are the contractions?
03:16Oh.
03:17Okay, close.
03:18Do you have a phone?
03:19No.
03:20Okay, get out.
03:20Come on.
03:21What?
03:22Get out of the fucking car, please.
03:23Oh, God.
03:24Why?
03:26It's bored of even in here.
03:27I'm gonna try to get us out of here.
03:29Okay?
03:30Get you to a doctor.
03:31No.
03:33Yes, Serena.
03:34You're gonna have to go to a hospital.
03:35No hospital.
03:36They're gonna find me there.
03:37Who the fuck is gonna find you?
03:38Oh.
03:49Who the fuck was that guy?
03:50Who was that guy you shot?
03:52Who was he?
03:54Are you trying to get away or something?
03:57Okay.
04:05Okay.
04:16Come with me.
04:18We gotta get you inside.
04:19Where?
04:19We're gonna take you to that barn.
04:20A barn?
04:21Yes, a barn.
04:22You have a better idea, Serena?
04:23No, no, no.
04:24You think so.
04:24Okay, wait, wait.
04:26Just breathe.
04:27Okay, there you go.

04:55Fred needed some encouragement before his address to the council.

05:58The one in which God truly makes his glorious presence known.
06:04This vessel of God is ready to bring the fruits of his love into the world.

19:46is cherished God is the true judge and she is his vessel she has pleased him and he has sent
19:59her to her
20:00final reward praise be and now let us accompany our sister home
20:40and here is what you have to see
20:53you
20:54you
20:56you
21:28My little baby, I'm going to call you Noah.
21:39It's a nice name, the savior of humanity.
21:48Baby Noah, I can't believe you're here.
21:55I waited so long for you, I wanted you so much.
22:02Was it worth it?
22:11Right now, I think it was.
22:17How's his latch?
22:20It's strong.
22:22He's hungry.
22:23Oh, my bad.
22:28Hannah had such a hard time breastfeeding.
22:31It was a tongue tie, which we didn't know.
22:35But I would just feed her and feed her, and she was still hungry.
22:41And I felt so guilty.
22:43She used to get so many colds when she was little, and I thought that was my fault because of
22:48the nursing.
22:49But then it turned out she got colds when she got older, too.
22:52So sometimes I'd have to stay home from work with her.
22:57And sometimes I couldn't stay home from work.
23:03Sometimes I didn't want to stay home from work.
23:13June.
23:17Why didn't you kill me?
23:27You've been the one waving the gun around.
23:29No, not today.
23:30At the information center.
23:32The protest.
23:35You had a gun.
23:38Yeah.
23:42Why didn't you kill me?
23:44Why Fred and not me?
23:56I didn't want to.
24:29I imagine this moment so many times.
24:33I always imagined that he would be here.
24:38Fred.
24:43He looks like him.
24:51They say that they always look like their dads at first.
24:56It's evolutionary.
25:00So that the dads don't kill them, you know?
25:05Evolution.
25:23Do you think he's going to be like him?
25:28Depends.
25:30On what?
25:32On who raises him.
25:37On what kind of person they want him to become.
25:46On what you teach him.
25:53And on what you tell him is his...
25:57to take.
26:06I want him to have everything.
26:11We all want that for them, Serena.
26:13No.
26:16No.
26:18Oh, my God.
26:48Oh, my God.
27:18You've never seen a baby before.
27:20I tried to sleep.
27:23You did sleep.
27:24I just kept worrying that I would smother him in these blankets and things.
27:30You're not supposed to have a bedding like this.
27:38We have to get you both somewhere inside, Serena, okay?
27:42Somewhere where they can take care of you.
27:44No.
27:45I told you I can't go to a hospital.
27:47They'll find me there.
27:48Who will find you?
27:49Yeah, the wheelers.
27:53The family that I've been staying with, they were the ones looking for you.
27:59They've been controlling me.
28:02My every move, they're everywhere.
28:06It's like I'm their handmaid.
28:11It's like I'm you.
28:16As awful as that sounds.
28:18Yes.
28:19Which is why they can't find me, and I can't let them get their hands on my baby.
28:23So you understand.
28:24I know that you do.
28:25Serena, you have no water.
28:27You have no food.
28:28It's freezing.
28:29But I'm so hot.
28:30No, I know.
28:31That's because you have a fever.
28:32So we have to get you the fuck out of this barn.
28:35And take you somewhere where they can take care of you.
28:39Or you are both going to die.
28:42And it will not be quick.
28:44Do you want to watch your baby slowly starve to death in front of you?
28:49While you die of sepsis?
28:57No.
29:06Maybe you should take him.
29:11What are you talking about?
29:15There's nothing left for me here.
29:17I can't go to Canada.
29:20I can't go back to Gilead.
29:23It's over.
29:25I don't have a future.
29:30But you have a future.
29:32Maybe you could take him with you.
29:36Serena, you don't know what you're saying.
29:38I know that I want what's best for him, like what you did with Nicole.
29:42With your daughter.
29:47He would be safe with you.
29:49You could care for him.
29:52You and your husband.
29:54He's a good man.
29:57He could teach Noah to be a good man.
30:01The kind of man who would never do the things that his father did.
30:11The things that I did.
30:22No.
30:23June, I think God sent you to me today.
30:26You came after me.
30:28What if he guided my hand to save you so that you could save my baby like an angel?
30:33Bullshit.
30:34There are avenging angels that rain down sulfur and fire from the Lord.
30:41Rejoice with him.
30:42No heavens.
30:45For he will avenge the blood of his children.
30:49And take righteous vengeance on his adversaries.
30:56They're still angels.
30:59Maybe that's what you are for me.
31:08Is that what you think of me?
31:14And when she could no longer hide him,
31:19she built for him an ark of bulrushes and placed this child therein.
31:30Maybe I'm the ark, Jim.
31:34Maybe I'm the vessel.
31:39I...
31:40I...
31:41carried my baby.
31:44I delivered him.
31:47And I held him.
31:53Maybe that's all that was meant for me in this life.
32:01Maybe it's God's will.
32:03Maybe it's God's will.
32:08Maybe it's God's will.
32:09Maybe it's God's will.
32:11Maybe it's God's will.
32:17Maybe it's God's will.
32:19Maybe it's God's will.
32:20Maybe it's God's will.
32:22Maybe it's God's will.
32:22Maybe it's God's will.
32:23Maybe it's God's will.
32:23Maybe it's God's will.
32:24Maybe it's God's will.
32:24Maybe it's God's will.
32:25Maybe it's God's will.
32:25Maybe it's God's will.
32:26Maybe it's God's will.
32:31Maybe it's God's will.
32:46God's will.
33:00A vessel.
33:06That's what you thought I was.
33:13What we were.
33:17Who we were.
33:21Where we came from.
33:26What we wanted.
33:33None of that mattered to you.
33:40To any of you.
33:45I'm so sorry.
33:48I don't care that you're sorry.
33:52We mattered.
33:54We were.
33:58We are.
34:00People.
34:03We have lives.
34:15And that's why I'm going to save yours, Serena.
34:22Because this isn't Gilead.
34:27And I am not you.
34:34I don't deserve to be saved.
34:36It's not for you.
34:40It's for him.
34:46Look at him.
34:49Look at your baby.
34:53You are the only person in the whole world that he knows.
34:59You are the only familiar smell.
35:02You are the only voice he recognizes.
35:08You love him.
35:13And you wanted him so much.
35:21You're his mother.
35:26and he belongs
