00:01Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
00:03Previously on The Testaments.
00:04Do you know why this statue was erected?
00:07So you can always be watching over us?
00:09Yes.
00:10We inspire the world with our good works, Agnes.
00:13Can you feel the baby kicking yet?
00:14I can't wait.
00:15You're so much further along than last time.
00:17Huldah!
00:18Your work with these girls is truly a triumph.
00:21They're magnificent!
00:23Somewhere out there is your future husband.
00:26Tonight you'll meet him.
00:27Excuse me, Miss McKenzie, I'm being called away.
00:29You could take my place with the young lady?
00:31Garth was becoming a commander.
00:33And if he were a commander, he could be mine.
00:36Do not let them get my girls drunk.
00:38I'll have a word with them.
00:40Why don't we get a refreshment?
00:42Shoot, I think I'm gonna be sick.
00:44She's drunk.
00:46It's a shame a girl with such promise.
00:49Threw it all away.
00:50As he blessed Ruth and Leah, he has blessed me the same.
00:54By his hand, may he make me fruitful.
00:56Praise be.
00:58I trust your expectations were met?
01:01Hardly.
01:02I saw more than one girl plied with drinks.
01:05You failed.
01:07How was I supposed...
01:08You still have much to prove.
01:11Well, I'm Thadala.
01:12I think maybe the time's come for you and I to discuss our vision for the future.
01:15Always the Lord.
01:18Yes, I would love her.
01:20Excuse me, Commander.
01:45All right, girls.
01:47I'm here.
01:48I'm here.
01:49I'm here.
01:49I'm here.
01:51I'm here.
01:52I'm here.
01:53In my own present day, I am an object of curiosity.
01:59Not to the world outside of Gilead.
02:02To these girls.
02:26Would you stop pacing?
02:27You're making me nervous.
02:28Chill.
02:29How?
02:30No.
02:30Why?
02:32What's going on?
02:33The aunts decide are contenders today.
02:36Two to three suitors each, usually.
02:38Then house visits.
02:38Then weddings.
02:39And prison for the rest of our lives.
02:42Don't say that.
02:43Yeah.
02:44Why not?
02:47Whatever.
02:48It's in God's hands now.
02:49Or the aunts.
02:50Is there a difference?
03:38Well, I may be a mystery to them, these girls are no mystery to me.
03:43Let's begin, shall we?
03:45Jehoshabah wants power.
03:47Huldah, security.
03:49But Agnes, well, I'm not sure what she wants.
03:52Not yet.
03:54Their fates are in my mortal hands.
03:57An unmarried woman picking husbands for each girl who passes through these halls.
04:02The irony is not lost on me.
04:06School canceled again, I take it.
04:08This is the fourth time this month.
04:10Fine by me.
04:11My classroom's a mess.
04:13I could use a day to clean it up.
04:20Whose turn was it to replace the coffee?
04:23Vivian's.
04:23And Vivian is where?
04:28You're late.
04:28Did you bring some coffee?
04:30Something's happening.
04:31There are some men outside.
04:33They're armed.
04:34That's weird.
04:35Keith, they want to talk to you.
04:37To me?
04:38Mm-hmm.
04:40Okay.
04:43What's happening?
05:01Oh, my God.
05:03Oh, my God!
05:04Oh, my God!
05:04Oh, my God!
05:05Oh, my God!
05:32Please remove any items, jewelry, cell phone, whatever's on your person, handbags, everything
05:42into the containers, don't worry man, we'll get your belongings back soon, let's go, let's
06:01go, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch
06:12me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me, touch
06:13me, touch me, touch me, touch me.
06:13Tiny boy bougie, giggle.
06:13Hey!
06:16Susan Snyder.
06:19You're the pregnant one.
06:22No husband, right?
06:25I have a partner.
06:27Take her to the box store.
06:28Excuse me, where are you-
06:30There's nothing you can do.
06:32Come with me!
06:35What is going on?
06:37What's he doing?
06:38Just because she's pregnant, that doesn't make any sense at all.
06:45It quickly became clear there had been a coup.
06:49A forced change of leadership.
06:52The first of many to come.
06:54What would transpire next, none of us knew.
06:58What are they doing with that?
07:00What's going on?
07:02What the fuck are you going to do to that?
07:04I'm going to get you.
07:05I'm going to get you.
07:16Sinners are always visible to the divine eye.
07:21The sins of these women have found them out.
07:26Oh no.
07:27Close your eyes.
07:28Close your eyes.
07:29By his hand.
07:33Sit down!
07:35Shut up!
07:36Put on your seats!
07:38Oh my God!
07:40Get down!
07:41Get down!
07:42Get down!
07:43Get down!
07:43Get down!
07:44Hey!
07:52Commander Maddox has expressed interest in Becca.
07:55That's promising.
07:56Mm-hmm.
07:58Commander Maddox is the man who gave alcohol to Becca at the ball.
08:01And you intend to reward his terrible behavior.
08:06It's left Becca without any other options.
08:09Unfortunately, such a public...
08:11But Donald, perhaps you should administer to Hulda.
08:13She still needs to be certified.
08:37Bring her in.
08:45I'm ready.
08:46Please come in.
08:49Blessed be the fruit, Aunt Vidala.
08:51Yes, yes.
08:52Pull down your undergarments and have a seat.
08:54I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
08:56I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:04I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:04I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:08I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:10I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:12I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:12I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:13I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:13I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:14I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:14I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:15I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:16I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:19I'll be right back to you, Aunt Vidala.
09:34I'm so happy for you.
10:14Where are they taking them?
10:16No, no, no!
10:17Fuck if I know.
10:31My mother still isn't speaking to me.
10:34Not since what happened at the ball.
10:36That wasn't your fault.
10:38Who cares?
10:39What if she winds up with a commander from the colonies?
10:42Then I wind up with a commander from the colonies.
10:44Becca, do you know that some of your friends put themselves in jeopardy trying to save
10:50your reputation?
10:52From wicked girls.
10:54Jealous prune.
10:57What did she just call you?
10:59Prune.
11:00You know, like a plum that never turns green.
11:15Girls, good news.
11:18Our dear Holda has been touched by his divine hand.
11:22She is officially agreeing and thus eligible this season.
11:27You may celebrate.
11:32That's enough.
11:34Now, Holda, God has provided you the opportunity to step into your womanhood with an important lesson.
11:45What do you think the punishment ought to be for a girl who uses violence upon another girl?
12:00Such a girl ought to have her hands bound and whipped.
12:10Very well.
12:25Holda.
12:27Hold Chunamite's arms down on the desk.
12:46Hold up.
12:47Hold up.
12:58Hold up.
13:01Hold up.
13:14Teaching these girls was like a recipe for a tough steak.
13:19Hammer it with a mallet, then marinate and tenderize.
13:28I had seen it work before, on myself and other women.
13:36Get up!
13:40Move!
13:43One takes one.
13:45Make this and pass it down the line.
13:49One slice.
13:58Some wolfed and guzzled, but I made my portion last as long as possible.
14:04Chewing and swallowing distracts from mental wheel spinning.
14:08Also, it passes the time.
14:15Get up!
14:17Get up!
14:17I'm not, I've got you.
14:20I've got you.
14:20Come on!
14:23Stop here.
14:26No!
14:29No!
14:30No!
14:31It's okay.
14:53I'm sorry.
14:56About what?
14:59The coffee.
15:02I forgot it was my turn.
15:05What I wouldn't do for a cup of coffee right now.
15:10With milk.
15:12Warm milk.
15:25You are a damn fine teacher, Lydia.
15:34So are you.
15:49Sarah, pass it down.
15:51One bottle each.
15:53Sarah, pass it around.
15:54I don't know.
16:04Spice.
16:04One bottle.
16:09Pass it over here.
16:25I'm sorry about your friend.
16:30I'm sorry about your friend.
16:40Friends in Gilead was a liability.
16:42It would only bring pain and suffering.
16:45I've tried to pass this lesson along to my girls.
16:48First my handmaids, then my precious flowers, but it doesn't always stick.
16:55I've tried to pass it over here.
16:56Rachel, pass it.
16:59I'm sorry.
17:02I'm sorry.
17:06I'm sorry.
17:07I'm sorry.
17:07I'm sorry.
17:13I'm sorry.
17:14I'm sorry.
17:14I'm sorry.
17:17I'm sorry.
17:32I'm sorry.
17:48Why are you are more nährying in her baby?
17:49Keep them safe.
17:50Offer them strength, healing and hope.
17:53AMEN.
17:54Amen, amen.
18:23Oh
18:43Hey
18:44Misogynists who openly disdain women one needn't fear them
18:49But the men who understand the power of women who want to control it instead of deny it
18:56There is no one more terrifying. I can sit by myself
19:03Good evening
19:05Well, good morning. I've lost track
19:08I'm commander Judd of the sons of Jacob
19:12And I've been tasked with the so-called women's sphere that is determining where each of you shall be placed
19:18in this
19:18Order what order they haven't told us anything
19:3058 you mean my age yes never married
19:35No, does that matter?
19:41You had an abortion
19:47I was very young
19:51You're aware that this form of person murder is now punishable by death
19:55And that the law is retroactive
19:59Well, I love children. That's why I wanted to teach yes
20:04Women have been told for so long that they can achieve equality in the professional and public arenas
20:09I don't expect them to welcome the segregation, but they will have to adjust
20:15It is God's will after all
20:18Surviving these men requires patients and
20:23Allies wherever you can find them
20:27Well
20:29I for one commend the work you are doing
20:34You would be surprised how many women have said that same thing sitting in that chair hoping to improve their
20:40outcomes
20:42I do have a suggestion one that might improve your own outcome
20:51What is it that you suggest
20:56If you believe society is best served by separate spheres for men and women
21:01Shouldn't they be truly separate?
21:05Surely you have better things to do than concern yourself with the petty details of all of this
21:12Who is going to teach the girls?
21:14To be women and the women to be better women women of God
21:21Delegation is but one of his many virtues
21:31Have there been any inquiries?
21:34No, but what if someone inquires about Agnes Mackenzie's lineage?
21:39She's the daughter of a handmaid
21:41There's nothing shameful in that
21:43Not just any handmaid
21:45We are not here to judge
21:48Let that be God's province
21:50Our job is to prevent the possibility of inbreeding so the children of Gilead may thrive
21:56Are we all in concert?
21:58Rowing together now?
22:04Blessed day
22:05Blessed day, Commander Judd
22:06What an unexpected surprise
22:10Ah
22:13Is there something I can help you with?
22:17With the new offensive against Mayday, some of our commanders have been shuttled to the front
22:24So
22:26These men should be taken out of the running until next season
22:31Thank you, Commander
22:33Your guidance is essential
22:34As we match our girls
22:39Commander
22:39How is your dear wife?
22:41I hear she's experiencing complications
22:45It's hard
22:46To be at home watching it all
22:49Unfold
22:49Come now
22:51There's no need to distract yourself with these women's issues
22:55Rest your mind
22:57Yes
22:58Perhaps you're right, Aunt Lydia
23:04I will handle this
23:06After all these years
23:08Don't you trust me?
23:17Attention girls
23:18Physical education will conclude at two bells
23:21Do not forget to stretch after exerting
23:2448, 49, 50
23:26Okay
23:28Agnes, your turn
23:31Agnes
23:33Sorry
23:34I was distracted
23:36No kidding
23:37This sucks
23:38In a few weeks, you'll all be gone and I'll still be here by myself
23:42I didn't mean to get my period
23:44Who cares?
23:45Who wants to get married on the line?
23:50Hey, Becca, you're kind of going off the deep end
23:53After what happened at the ball
23:54You should be throwing yourself at the mercy of Aunt Lydia
23:58Well, maybe I'll get lucky and I won't get any offers
24:00Then I can stay here with you, Shu
24:02What is wrong with you?
24:04This is our whole lives
24:05Some people would give anything for the right match
24:09What?
24:12Agnes
24:14Agnes
24:25I'm in love
24:29And it's horrible
24:35Who?
24:43Garth
24:45My guardian
24:50How do you know
24:52That you're in love with him?
24:58Anytime I'm near him
24:59I feel hot
25:01My skin, like my cheeks
25:04And then in my belly
25:08Have you ever felt that way before?
25:13No
25:15But I'm happy for you
25:19He's not even eligible
25:24True, but
25:27At least you can feel this way once
25:29Right?
25:32No matter what, that's a blessing
25:47Agnes McKenzie
25:49Shouldn't you be on your way to class?
25:53Yes, Aunt Lydia
25:55Can I help you with something?
25:58Okay
26:07Yes, Aunt Lydia
26:09Maybe
26:10Maybe
26:11I have a question
26:12Or a request
26:14A request?
26:16Very respectfully, Aunt Lydia
26:18Very
26:19All right then
26:27My guardian
26:28The one who showed bravery on the bus that day
26:30When made a
26:30I am aware
26:32He's soon to be made a commander
26:35I thought perhaps you might make him eligible
26:39This season
26:41Maybe God protected him for that reason
26:50I shall think the matter over
26:54Thank you, Aunt Lydia
26:56For your graciousness
26:58Praise be
26:59Now get to class
27:01Late girls are difficult girls
27:03Go in grace
27:11This is the last day of childhood for these girls
27:17Innocence can be lost
27:18In so many ways
28:04Miss Clements
28:06You look fresh
28:09Now
28:10If you are to join our cause
28:13You'll have to prove you mean it
28:16Are you prepared to do that?
28:18Yes
28:19Yes
28:27Oh
28:28Oh no, no, no
28:30Please
28:31Please
28:32I beg of you
28:33I can't
28:35No, no, no, no
28:36Please
28:36Let me just say this
28:37Those who are not with us
28:40Are against us
28:44So which is it to be?
28:50Please
28:52Please
28:56Please
28:57Please
28:57Please
28:58Please
28:58Please
28:59Oh, my God.
29:33Please, God, help me.
29:43Help me.
29:45Help me.
29:48Please.
29:50Please.
29:51Please.
29:52Please.
30:20Sinners are always visible to the divine.
30:25The sins of these women have found them out.
30:57Whatever my resolve may have been, after some days, I lost track of that plotline.
31:03The plotline of my resolve.
31:06Now, I was following the plotline of my survival.
31:12Please, I don't want to die.
31:15Please, don't.
31:16Please, I don't want to die.
31:18Please.
31:19Lydia, don't.
31:20Please.
31:21Please.
31:26By his hands.
31:51By his hands.
31:52By his hands.
32:20Holt has been settled.
32:21Only a few open slots left.
32:25Which commanders remain?
32:28I have another one to add to the mix, Garth Chapin.
32:34The Guardian?
32:35He's not eligible.
32:37He will be, soon enough.
32:39Yes, and other commanders have been serving Gilead far longer.
32:44As you know, men serve Gilead in myriad ways.
33:00Well, come on now, spit it out.
33:19I trust you heard the news.
33:22Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, for he does not willingly bring affliction to anyone.
33:30Praise be his words.
33:45Is it time to reconsider a handmaid?
33:50Isn't your domain anymore?
33:52I can still arrange one for you, between friends, of course.
33:59Not yet.
34:00When you are ready, you know you can count on me.
34:05In so many ways, dear Aunt Lydia.
34:12Your price is above rubies.
34:15Praise be.
34:17Praise be.
34:31Was I a phoenix, rising from the ashes?
34:34Or was I a cockroach?
34:37I wasn't sure anymore.
34:39But I was alive.
34:41Miss Clements, come in.
34:48We must construct a uniform for our new disciples.
34:52Your new disciples.
34:55Mine.
34:57I thought you might enjoy the privilege of weighing in.
35:19This one.
35:23It's a little rough.
35:26Might not be the most comfortable to the touch.
35:28No.
35:30I don't imagine it will be.
35:38My biggest gripe with the old world was the emphasis on comfort, ease, convenience.
35:45We had all become entitled little brats.
35:58Penny's child is with God now.
36:00Blessed are those that mourn.
36:02For they shall be comforted.
36:10How quickly people forget that nothing good comes without a little grinding down of the tooth.
36:16Poor Penny.
36:18Poor Penny.
36:18For a seedling must fight its way through the dirt to meet the sun.
36:29Hold up.
36:31I made this for you.
36:34Really?
36:35No.
36:36I made it for myself.
36:37For good luck.
36:38But as you wait for your contenders, I thought you might need it.
36:41Just don't rub out all the good luck.
36:46Well, that's me.
36:47I have my first green appointment today.
36:49With a tailor.
36:50And then soon your dad to get my teeth whitened.
36:52Bye.
37:13Blessed day, Miss.
37:14Agnes.
37:17See you tomorrow.
37:20See you.
37:35the lord has challenged us today hasn't he i pray we are worthy of his gifts even if they don't
37:42seem
37:42like gifts at first i know his aunts aren't always generous with praise but it's worth mentioning
37:50you've been an exemplary pearl girl today in all the days i'm grateful for the chance to serve

38:03i made mistakes too you're not from gilead
38:10where are you from well we're all of the same earth dust to dust but how did you end up
38:17in gilead
38:18how did you become an aunt well dear you need to have a calling i heard mine and i answered
38:27i guess you could say i was the original pearl girl
38:34i'll take it from here
38:43we've checked all the blood lines our matches are as clean as a wooden whistle
38:50i believe a celebration is in order each season brings its own obstacle and this season has been
38:59particularly stimulating may our greens move forward into holy matrimony as god intended
39:12it is now time to tell the girls families oh what delicious news they shall receive
39:28it is

39:58we have done our best to teach these girls to prepare them
40:04but what they don't know yet is that life is long
40:09the real brutality is when it asks you to endure
40:13knowing what you have done and what has been done while you stood by
40:18but what choice do we have
40:20and during is the only way through
40:27i control the women's side of their enterprise with an iron fist in a leather glove in a woolen mitten
40:36i made a promise to teach these girls to be women women of god
40:54i made another promise
40:57after what happened to my girls at jezebel's after boston fell
41:03after the sting of the noose around my neck began to wear off
41:07i vowed to document everything
41:10and everyone
41:13yes aunts were afforded the special privilege of being allowed to write
41:18the only women in gilead who could
41:23write the crimes of weak men and far too many women
41:28that was not allowed
41:30that could bring down these men chosen by god to lead us
42:09the corrupt and blood smeared fingerprints of the past
42:13must be wiped away for the morally pure generation that is surely about to arrive
42:20but among these bloody fingerprints are those made by ourselves
42:24and they can't be wiped away so easily
42:28may god protect these girls because i'm not sure i can
42:50let me know
