00:02Previously on The Handmaid's Tale
00:04Nick told me everything
00:05The Resistance was planning a massacre
00:07I shut it down
00:08You pretend like I'm not a commander
00:10Or an I
00:10Unless it suits you
00:11You gave up those women
00:13To save yourself
00:15June
00:15I was counting on you
00:17The only person you should count on is yourself
00:19Commander Bell
00:20He wants Janine
00:21My dear girl
00:23Is she adjusting?
00:24We've been working on her adjustment all morning
00:26Well, she's not ready for public viewing at the moment
00:28The wives were so dismissive today
00:31They need to be reminded who they're dealing with
00:33A proper wedding will remind them
00:35Okay, we'll need to have our wedding in Boston
00:37Grand celebration fit for the highest commander
00:40With all the other commanders and their wives
00:42She's about to become queen of Gilead
00:45Where are you gonna be, June?
00:46At the wedding
00:47All those handmaids, one giant group, anonymous
00:49I'm going with you
00:50They don't have any weapons
00:52We'll get them to the Red Center
00:54Then slip them to the posted handmaids at the wedding
00:56We will use all of our friends
00:58Everyone and anyone who hates Gilead
01:00Anyone who has ever been fucked over by that place
01:04I've scheduled a meeting for you
01:07The Department of Human Reallocation
01:09We'll hear your plan tomorrow
01:11I'd be missing the warden's wedding
01:13Small sacrifice
01:14I don't like leaving the girls before the wedding
01:16But it can't be helped
01:18Let the revolution begin
01:20Dear God, give us the strength
01:22To murder those goddamn motherfuckers
01:40They wanted us to look like we'd been dipped in blood
01:43Some fairytale figure
01:45And a red cloak
01:52Seems ridiculous now
01:54To contemplate how important clothes were to us before
01:59We had closets full of them
02:02We took jobs we hated
02:04So we could buy more of them
02:06So we could be fashionable
02:08So we could be on trend
02:11We couldn't figure out how to get rid of them
02:15So we threw them in landfills
02:18We poisoned the water
02:22We brought on ecological collapse
02:27All because we believed
02:28That these garments that we put on our bodies
02:31Told the world who we were
02:35It was a lie
02:37A lie Gilead believed too
02:41So they assigned us colors
02:47They dictated what we wore
02:50Who we could be
02:52They used our clothes to divide us
02:56To dehumanize us
03:00But tonight
03:02Those clothes will be our weapons
03:07Tonight
03:08We will use these clothes to start a war
03:10We will look down to them
03:12Then we will try to get rid of them
03:17So we'll walk out to them
03:19Then we look behind them
03:33We will walk out there
03:36Welcome back
03:38Here we go
03:39Yня
03:54They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
04:16They forgot that it's also the color of rage.
04:59They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
05:28They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
05:38They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
06:20They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
06:42They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
07:04They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
08:55O come, let us sing unto the Lord, for the Lord is a great God and a great King above
09:04all gods.
09:06Come, let us worship for the Lord, our maker.
09:13Dear Lord, we are gathered here to celebrate a new beginning, a new marriage of the faithful
09:24and the just, in accordance with the divine laws of Gilead.
09:32High Commander Wharton, as you pledge fealty and devotion to your new wife, so we all renew
09:42the Lord, bealty and devotion to her.
09:46For we honor God and we honor fast to our lives.
09:50For we are no longer two but of one flesh.
09:54What God has joined together, no human being must separate.
09:59Dear God,
10:05we ask that you bless this union as you forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness
10:15and temptations of your will.
10:17For we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
10:21All of us are like sheep and stray.
10:25But in your ultimate wisdom, you allow us to repent and guide us home as it pleases you,
10:32Lord Almighty.
10:34Wait, wait.
10:35Plan B. Pass them at the reception.
10:38Please, Lord, make this new union as fruitful.
10:41As the blessed union.
10:44With my own wife.
10:47In bringing forth mine own child.
10:51First and forever.
10:54First and forever.
10:58First and forever.
11:06Last and forever.
11:12First andRE.
11:14A 90- antkö alors.
11:17First andRE.
11:19A 90-pegcon.
11:21Right.
11:22First andRE.
11:24First andRE.
11:26Girls, greet your sisters from the Red Center.
11:35Godspeed.
11:42Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome High Commander and Mrs. Ariel Ward.
13:24Yeah, we know that's right, but I have to ask you about that.
13:28Joseph.
13:30Serena.
13:31Why are you so nervous?
13:33Nervous?
13:34Why would I be nervous?
13:37Well, despite all this pomp and circumstance, I have not abandoned our goals.
13:41I'm as committed to our reforms as ever.
13:44All the more power to you, Serena.
13:48Not just power for me, Joseph.
13:50Power for all the women in Gilead.
13:54Glory be.
13:55Now, excuse me while I go visit my most important guests.
14:07You know, your handmaid, my handmaid now.
14:14You know, my dad, he's got the best handmaid in the whole country.
14:19Just one ceremony, bam, twins, every time.
14:25Shit.
14:26Serena's heading over.
14:27God damn it.
14:29Handmaids, gather, please.
14:30I'd like to speak with all of you, if I may.
14:32Girls, gather quickly from the sword.
14:38Get in the back.
14:50It is so meaningful to me to have all of you here.
14:54I am painfully aware how little gratitude we show you for your sacred service.
15:02But change is coming.
15:05I am making it my personal goal.
15:08Wonderful.
15:10Girls say thank you, Mrs. Wharton.
15:12Thank you, Mrs. Wharton.
15:26And I could have been kinder to her.
15:29Um, to be honest, she could have been kinder to me.
15:33We both said and did unforgivable things to one another.
15:37But that made us equal in vengeance and in spite.
15:41And now I can count her as a good friend.
15:45And although it has been a challenge to repair our relationship,
15:49I do believe that my former handmaid forgives me.
15:55Mrs. Wharton, Rita.
15:57Rita.
15:59I was just speaking about forgiveness and the importance of moving on.
16:03Perhaps you might share how you have done it.
16:06Oh, uh, well, you set a goal.
16:11And you work towards it.
16:14Keep your eyes on the prize, ladies.
16:17Yes.
16:18Excellent.
16:20I do wish that I could see all of your faces.
16:23Forgive me for interrupting, Serena, but it's time now.
16:26Oh, uh, it's not too early.
16:28No, no, no, now's perfect.
16:30All right.
16:30Um, I will be back for our group portrait.
16:35I want all of you unveiled for it.
16:37I would like to celebrate each and every one of you as individuals.
16:41May God bless you.
16:42May God keep you.
16:45Praise be.
16:46May the Lord have been open.
16:48Just this way.
17:27How long is it going to take?
17:29One to two hours.
17:30They'll go home and they'll fall fast asleep.
17:33And then we're on.
17:35Blessed be the posted handmaids.
17:48This is delicious.
17:50I had my fill, but...
17:52Oh, no, thank you.
17:52Go ahead.
17:53You should have some milk.
17:54I think I've had enough.
17:55No, no, no.
17:56You don't deserve it.
17:58You eat like a bird.
18:11Get them back to the Red Center.
18:13I'll go with the posted handmaids.
18:15And be careful.
18:19You be careful.
18:21Make sure he's passed out.
18:23Don't worry.
18:24Get them ready.
18:26Blessed be the fruit deers.
18:29It's time for our blessed farewell.
18:31Chop, chop.
18:32My girls, back to the Red Center.
18:34The rest to your households.
18:43Pretty lines, girls, quick as nice now.
18:52I'll meet you in the Red Center.
18:54Godspeed, take care of them.
19:01Lydia, how wonderful to see you before we head out.
19:04Mrs. Wharton, you look beautiful.
19:07I'll make sure to arrange a plate for you.
19:09I hear it's delicious.
19:10Although, of course, we haven't had a minute to enjoy it ourselves.
19:15Please enjoy it.
19:16Great speed.
19:16Great speed.
19:17Great speed.
19:25June?
19:29June?
19:34June?
19:37June?
19:42June?
19:45Praise be it, Lydia.
19:47Hey, Lydia.
19:49I'm so glad you couldn't make it.
19:55Lydia!
19:58You bailed on my meetings.
20:06Of course you did.
20:07Of course you did.
20:08Of course you did.
20:24I think June Osborne is here.
20:28You're losing it, lady.
20:30June Osborne is in Alaska.
20:34Alaska?
20:35Commander Lawrence, please.
20:38Aunt Lydia has had a long day and night of travel.
20:41We have to get you a seat before you pass out.
20:44Get her a piece of fruit.
20:46She's hallucinating.
20:49Hi, excuse me.
20:50Can you take Aunt Lydia and get her a big steak
20:52and a glass of red wine and for dessert,
20:55some cake?
20:56Thank you so much.
20:57Sweet.
20:58Okay.
21:21Welcome home, Commander, Mrs. Wyn.
21:28Gift from Commander Bell Sr. in the parlor.
21:32I think I know what it is.
21:37Wait.
21:40Oh, yes.
21:42I have been wanting to do this.
21:46Welcome to your home.
21:54What do you think?
21:57It's perfect.
22:08It's perfect.
22:13Please.
22:17Blessed be the fruit.
22:18May the Lord open.
22:19I'm Commander Warden.
22:21Praise be to you.
22:22May God make me truly worthy.
22:25This is a great honor.
22:26I'm told she's the most fertile handmaid in Gilead.
22:31But I'm fertile.
22:35Yes, of course, God willing, and we'll try,
22:38but you're only one person, my love.
22:40No.
22:43No, I will not have a handmaid in our house.
22:55We've talked about having a big family.
22:59Now, of Gabriel...
23:00Don't call her that.
23:01That is her name.
23:02No, it's not.
23:05She will help us fulfill our duty to God.
23:09To bear fruit and multiplies our sacred vessel.
23:12She's not a vessel.
23:13She's a human being.
23:25What is your name?
23:27Of Gabriel, ma'am.
23:29No.
23:30What is your real name?
23:37Christina, Christina, leave this house.
23:44Run.
23:45And don't ever come back.
23:48Gabriel, please, go to your room.
24:00What is wrong with you?
24:02I was so stupid to do this again.
24:04Serena.
24:05I was wrong about you.
24:06I thought you were a better man,
24:08but you're just like the rest of them.
24:11Turn it off!
24:20No, I have continually
24:23indulged you.
24:26Compromised, accommodated.
24:28I have made radical changes to my life.
24:32I have bent to your liberal attitudes,
24:35but I will not
24:38turn my back on God.
24:41You think God wants this
24:43abomination of a marriage?
24:48You have deceived me.
25:03Serena.
25:04I think he wants you.
25:13I can't stay here.
25:15You have gone insane.
25:16Stop!
25:23I forbid you to go.
25:34Let me out.
25:37No.
25:39You are my wife now.
25:43Your place is in this house.
25:47You have nowhere to go.
25:49You are under my...
25:53Under your what?
25:58Under your what?
26:01Your rule?
26:03What are you going to do?
26:05Cut off my finger?
26:07Beat me with a belt?
26:09Because all of that,
26:10all of it has happened to me before.
26:12And I will survive it.
26:13And I will survive you.
26:19I'm not something to survive.
26:25I am a good man.
26:28And a good husband.
26:31You can't be.
26:35You're a commander.
26:45Step aside, Harry.
26:49Mrs. Wharton would like to leave.
27:17Dad?
27:18Dad?
27:19Dad?
27:19Dad?
27:20Dad?
27:20Dad?
27:20Dad?
27:36Sir, who was there?
27:39Ma'am?
27:40Who sat there?
27:42The handmaids, ma'am.
27:54The handmaids, ma'am.
28:26The handmaids.
29:20The handmaids, ma'am.
29:24The handmaids, ma'am.
29:28The handmaids, ma'am.
30:20The handmaids, ma'am.
30:26Are the girls all right?
30:28Of course, they're all tucked in, safe and sound.
30:31I, I, I, um, I made some cookies using your recipe.
30:34Come to the kitchen, I'll show you.
30:35I must check on the girls.
30:37I must check on the girls.
30:37Something's going on.
30:38I'm going to tell you.
31:01And then, I'll show you.
31:07I'll show you.
31:14Oh, for goodness sakes, my apologies to me on that.
31:21Okay, open it.
31:23Peter, stay alert.
31:25Yes, ma'am.
32:02They've been in bed for over an hour, Aunt Lydia.
32:04Yeah.
32:34Oh, God.
32:37Oh, God.
32:47Oh, God.
32:54Oh, God.
32:55Oh, God.
33:06Oh, God.
34:00Bell.
34:03What?
34:05Repeat yourself.
34:15She knows more.
34:22Nice to meet you.
34:48Nice to meet you.
35:04Nice to meet you.
35:25Nice to meet you.
35:53Nice to meet you.
35:55Do you know?
36:03Hi.
36:12Thanks.
36:21Oh, Lord, God of vengeance, God of vengeance of fear, rise up, judge of the earth, and render punishment to
36:30the proud.
36:31Do you think the Lord does not know what you do?
36:35He who made the ear shall he not hear?
36:39He who formed the eye shall he not see?
36:42And he who knows all shall he not punish the wicked?
36:50Peter.
36:53No.
36:55Lydia.
36:55You liar.
36:57What are you up to?
36:58Why are you up to?
36:59Why are they still in their clothes?
37:01Why did they hide their cake?
37:03Aunt Lydia!
37:06Get the fuck away from her!
37:13Who are you up to?
37:16You don't remember me.
37:22What is your name?
37:24Why do you care?
37:27Why do you care?
37:28Why do you care when you stole it from me?
37:36My name is Moira.
37:43You fucking bitch.
37:46You're working with her.
37:48Who?
37:49I was right.
37:50She's back.
37:51I know she's back.
37:53Where is she?
37:55I don't know who you're talking about.
37:57Where is she?
37:59I will not hesitate to shoot a traitor.
38:03Tell me, where is June Osborne?
38:07I'm right here.
38:13I knew it.
38:14I knew it.
38:17You did this.
38:18No, Aunt Lydia.
38:23You did it.
38:27You trained us to be like this.
38:31After you beat us.
38:33And after you mutilated us.
38:36After you tortured us.
38:39After you took our children away.
38:44You did this.
38:48But I think.
38:49But I think.
38:51That you've seen things.
38:53That you can't unsee.
38:56And I think that you've learned things that.
38:59You can't unlearn.
39:03And I know.
39:05That in your heart of hearts.
39:09You know that rape is rape.
39:13And you knew it wasn't our fault.
39:16And we don't deserve this.
39:20And we're not fallen women.
39:26We're rising up.
39:28Because.
39:29And each and every one of us.
39:32Is this immaculate soul.
39:36That was given to us by God.
39:40That's just.
39:43Crying out.
39:45For dignity.
39:49And freedom.
39:51Do not presume to know what is in my heart.
39:54Or God's.
39:58Yeah.
40:00No, you're right.
40:03I won't.
40:08But.
40:09I would like you to ask yourself.
40:13Lydia.
40:15If you think that.
40:19God wants this.
40:21For us.
40:24For your girls.
40:27If God would.
40:30Allow.
40:31Tell.
40:31All of this.
40:34Or.
40:38Is there a God.
40:41That would empower.
40:44A woman like you.
40:47To stand up for us.
40:54To arc toward the light.
40:56To fight.
40:57And to finally declare.
41:02Enough.
41:05Because.
41:07We.
41:08All of us.
41:11Together.
41:19We've had enough.
41:20Enough.
41:25Oh.
41:29He hurt me, Aunt Lydia.
41:34They hurt us.
41:38They raped us.
41:40Mm.
41:43You.
41:44Gave us to them.
41:49I only ever meant to.
41:52Save my girls.
41:54If you want to save us.
41:57Let us go.
42:02Please, Aunt Lydia.
42:08Mom.
42:09To be pennant.
42:37To be honest.
42:38And others.
42:38Not Myers.
43:05I'm sorry.
43:08It hurt you, dear.
44:25Oh, God, help me.
44:29God, help me.
44:32Oh, God, help me.
44:33God, help me.
44:36Oh, God, help me.
44:39Oh, God, help me.
44:51We took the clothes they used to enslave us, to liberate us.
44:57Who were we under those clothes?
45:00Who could we be?
45:02Who had they prevented us from being?
45:06Mothers and daughters, readers and writers, professionals, friends.
45:15We were angry.
45:17We were exhilarated.
45:19We were ready for a new beginning.
45:22The dress became our uniform.
45:25And we became an army.
45:52An army to free ourselves from the prison of the dress.
45:56To free ourselves, to become who we were meant to be.
46:01Who we deserved to be.
46:03We would take our freedom and use every last ounce of it to fight.
46:15And so we fled, away from the darkness, within and without, and into the light.
46:28And so we tried, away from the light.
