00:00Oh
00:44you want to know what it was like for me growing up in Gilead
00:49I'm ashamed to say that I believed in Gilead once
00:53I guess it's easier to accept a story
00:56even a childish one
00:58rather than believe that the people around you are monsters
01:06blessed morning Agnes
01:08in this story I'm telling I'm not really sure what year it was
01:13sorry
01:13it's hard to remember actual dates because girls were forbidden to have calendars
01:19just reading one could cost you a finger
01:30you learn to mark time in other ways
01:33I know I still had my dollhouse
01:36it looked just like our real house
01:40it had my bedroom and the dining room
01:42a wife's parlor
01:43even an attic where the Martha slept
01:45they're in the bed that I'm free
01:47they're in the sick and I'm free
01:51but the truth falls back on me
01:54I'm free
01:59I was a plum
02:02I didn't have my period yet
02:04in my world then
02:06I made all the difference
02:09it was all we wanted
02:10and it also terrified us
02:19I, I know what to do
02:21now that I've got a man like you
02:24it can be so cool
02:28baby don't be cool
02:32I, I know what to do
02:34now that I've got a man like you
02:49the commander doll was always doing very important work
02:52just like my father
02:54keeping us safe from heretics and mayday terrorists
03:12the Martha dolls were always busy
03:15but at night they would let the little girls all sit in the kitchen with them
03:19they would make her cinnamon toast and they would all talk
03:29there is a wife doll
03:30in blue of course
03:33that would be Paula
03:35who was my new stepmother then
03:37blessed morning Agnes dear
03:39Rosa, how's your leg?
03:41please tell me it's better
03:41yes, ma'am
03:44it's kind of you to ask
03:45praise be his mercy
03:48the high dusting is catching up with us, I'm afraid
03:51yes, ma'am
03:52I'll do that after the commander's meeting
03:58thank you, Zilla
04:00Zilla was new
04:02her tongue was removed as punishment
04:03before she was posted with us
04:06probably for blasphemy
04:08that was a big one for some wives
04:10well, she's certainly an improvement
04:12that last one we had was a chatty cappy
04:15sometimes, when I was playing with the dollhouse
04:18I would lock the Paula doll in the attic
04:21which was not nice
04:23the Paula doll would pound on the door and scream
04:25but the little girl doll would pay no attention
04:28and sometimes she would laugh
04:29is that the new skirt?
04:33up then
04:38well, don't you look pretty as a picture
04:41thank you
04:44mother
04:46I was worried to make you look gawky
04:48but no
04:56praise be his mercy
04:58for not making me look too gawky
05:01I'm an irritant to Paula
05:05she wants me married and gone
05:08I was born in the sinful before world
05:12please keep the camera clean
05:19but don't slouch, dear
05:21slouching girls get fat husbands
05:38good morning, Miss Agnes
05:43bye, Rosa
05:44bye, Rosa
06:01Once, when we were pinks, I smiled at a boy on the playground.
06:05Leonce taped my mouth shut and made me stand in the dining hall for two days,
06:09holding the sign for a slut.
06:11That was for smiling.
06:12I wonder what would happen if I kissed one.
06:43I wonder what would happen if I was pregnant.
06:50When we became plums, we started going on the field trips.
06:54They were fun.
06:56Some parts more than others.
07:08I got you!
07:15I met you in a restaurant.
07:20I was no better done.
07:28You asked me what's my pleasure.
07:32I'm moving my pleasure.
07:34I'm moving my teeth.
07:37And tell you what I'm dreaming.
07:42Dreaming is free.
07:43Quiet, quiet, quiet.
07:45Dreaming.
07:48Dreaming is free.
07:50I don't want you live on charity.
07:56Let's just read, or is it fantasy?
08:05Gross.
08:06Hold it enough.
08:08God's justice is beautiful.
08:10I'm sorry, Aunt Vidala.
08:13Friends.
08:14These men.
08:16Do you know what crime they committed?
08:20Yes, Shinami.
08:22Rape.
08:23Ah, Vidala, that's what the red X is for.
08:25It's for rape.
08:26Praise be.
08:28Friends, these men.
08:30These horrible men.
08:33These...
08:34Rapists.
08:34You say rapists?
08:36Rapists, yes.
08:38Thank you, Shinami.
08:40I'm not a raper.
08:41I didn't know that.
08:43Friends, it's a ghastly story.
08:45These men stole a young girl.
08:47Much like yourselves.
08:49This young girl was a kind of like being the center of attention.
08:52A spirited girl.
08:54That kind of girl often earns a violent end for herself.
08:58Praise be his judgment.
09:00Praise be his judgment.
09:01These men saw this girl.
09:03They were overcome by their urges.
09:06They came in the night and took her.
09:09From her own bed.
09:11What about her guardians?
09:14Some of them were her guardians.
09:16The urges of men are terrible things.
09:18Those urges must be curbed.
09:20That is the burden that God has personally laid upon each of you.
09:24Just by existing, we were mortally dangerous to otherwise perfectly good men.
09:29They were helpless to resist us.
09:33Even us.
09:34The daughters of commanders.
09:36The most godly of girls.
09:57I was a precious flower.
10:01Then why did I sometimes feel like a prized pig?
10:03How are those words?
10:14How are they starving
10:35At the Aunt Lydia's school, pink dresses were for little girls.
10:38Plum dresses were for older girls like us.
10:42Predestined to marry high Gilead commanders once we became eligible,
10:45which only happened if God blessed us with a period.
10:48Then we became greens and got pins.
10:51Oh, no!
10:54Will this be the fruit?
10:56You're insane. The skirt looks fine.
10:58Made a lot of it, don't bother.
11:00Even God knows Paula has no taste.
11:02Come on, friends!
11:06Becca was the first person I met when we moved here from Colorado.
11:09She was my best friend, except we weren't allowed to have best friends.
11:13Leont said that best friends led to keeping secrets,
11:16and secrets led to disobedience.
11:18And disobedient girls became women who were immoral.
11:20Obviously.
11:21We've been sent good weather.
11:23This blessing?
11:24Do you have your dress for me?
11:28After lunch.
11:29Becca was already green.
11:30She was getting ready to be matched.
11:32She was moving on without me.
11:34But we didn't talk about that.
11:36This will be our third seamstress.
11:38My mother thinks if she gets the bodice just right,
11:41everyone will forget my dad's a dentist.
11:43Maybe you should dress as a tube.
11:45Blessed day.
11:46Blessed day.
11:47We've been sent good weather.
11:48Thought I'd receive a drug.
11:50Very, very cute hair.
11:51Yeah, I definitely agree.
11:53Thanks.
11:53New Martha.
11:54Blessed be yours, too.
11:55Seriously.
11:56My Martha sucks.
11:57I look like I have a bedhead.
11:58Shunamite.
11:59Chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter.
12:00Flap your tongue around, and you're likely to lose it.
12:03Yes, Aunt Badala.
12:03Have a graceful day, girls.
12:10Aunt Lydia was a legend.
12:13Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
12:14She had been worshipped, then vilified,
12:16then worshipped again.
12:18Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
12:19In the four years since the War of Massachusetts,
12:22the purges had happened.
12:24As always, those remaining were able to shape history as daylight.
12:28Some people were hung,
12:29and some had schools named after them.
12:35At one time, we too were foolish,
12:37disobedient, deceived,
12:39and enslaved by all kinds of passions.
12:42We lived in malice and envy,
12:44being hated and hating one another.
12:47But when the kindness and love
12:49of God our Savior appeared,
12:51we saved us.
12:52Not because of the righteousness of death,
12:55but because of mercy.
12:58White was for the Pearl Girls.
13:00They were new arrivals from outside of Gilead.
13:03Converts through a godly struggle.
13:07Aunt Lydia and her missionaries
13:08gathered them from all over the world.
13:11They were mostly runaways.
13:13Of course they had to be young,
13:14and possibly fertile.
13:17Weirdos.
13:24Beyonce at the Pearl Girls
13:26came eager for a new start.
13:27They were even more eager
13:28to prove their godliness
13:29by telling on you to the aunts.
13:32We all knew someone
13:33who had been ratted out by a Pearl Girl.
13:36The passion of the converted.
13:39What a pain in the ass.
14:02Nice work, Constance.
14:17Pretty daisies, Hilda.
14:20Really?
14:21Thank you, Aunt Estee.
14:22They're actually black-eyed Susan.
14:24Should you be thanking me?
14:26No.
14:27No, thank him.
14:28Aunt Estee.
14:29For making me able,
14:30and for the flowers he made,
14:32and the thread.
14:35Pray forgive me.
14:37You will forgive him.
14:38Just be mindful around Al-Badala.
14:43Aunt Gabana!
14:45Blessed morning.
14:50Agnes.
14:52Aunt Lydia would like to speak with you.
14:59Come along.
15:01Agnes, get up, please.
15:03I'm sure that's good news.
15:05Back to work.
15:07Back to work.
15:14Bye-bye.
15:14I love you.
15:28soldier
15:28I'm sure you're not sure.
15:31Talk to him again.
15:32I'm sure you've made this...
15:32Love you!
15:34Talk about how to go.
15:37God deal.
15:38You get up, don't worry.
15:38They're all right.
15:38By tradition, only dead people are allowed to have statutes.
15:43I have been given one while still alive.
15:47Praise be your works, Aunt Lydia.
15:49I have been prematurely petrified.
15:57Agnes Mackenzie, how the time goes by.
16:02I have been watching you for quite a while now.
16:06Why, Aunt Lydia?
16:08Soon to be eligible.
16:10May God make me truly worthy.
16:12Ah, you will be rewarded.
16:14If you are free of sin, of course.
16:17Do you know why this statue was erected?
16:22So you can always be watching over us.
16:24Yes.
16:25We inspire the world with our good works, Agnes.
16:29Do you agree?
16:30Yes, Aunt Lydia.
16:31Excellent.
16:32I have good work that needs doing.
16:35Helping a new friend feel welcome.
16:43Agnes, this is Daisy.
16:45One of my precious, precious pearls recently arrived.
16:49Daisy may be joining your class.
16:53She's going to be a plum?
16:55Perhaps.
16:56I'd like you to show her around.
16:58Make her feel comfortable.
17:00Be her shepherding.
17:02It's an honor for you, Agnes.
17:04Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
17:06Daisy, be a good girl and stay with Agnes.
17:09Lambs, don't stray.
17:11Yes, Aunt Lydia.
17:13Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
17:16Wonderful.
17:17Go in grace.
17:28Blessed fruit.
17:30May the Lord open.
17:40Painting and sketching.
17:48Music classroom.
17:55Comfortments this way.
17:56Domestic management is upstairs with Aunt L'Oreal.
17:59Hospitality.
18:00Separating.
18:01Culinary arts.
18:03Fiber arts, like embroidery, lace making.
18:07You can make a tablecloth, if you dare.
18:10And scripture class.
18:12Praise please, word.
18:15Weirdo.
18:17Aunt Lydia didn't tell me much about you.
18:21Did she tell you anything about me?
18:24Nothing.
18:26It's Agnes.
18:36Did she ask you to watch me?
18:40Of course.
18:41Miss Agnes.
18:44Let's learn how to behave properly.
18:49Discipline and corrections are in the on-swing.
18:51You only go there when you earn it.
18:57And lunch.
18:58Blessed be his bounty.
19:04This is the dining room.
19:06Quite obviously.
19:09Let's eat.
19:12You cannot be mistress of the house.
19:15Unless you are the mistress of yourself.
19:18Do you understand me, girls?
19:20Yes, Ambedala.
19:23It is an offense to God to waste food with poor preparation.
19:27If your meal is unacceptable, speak firmly to your Martha.
19:31Do you understand me, girls?
19:34Yes, Ambedala.
19:36Friends, let us give thanks to him.
19:43And?
19:44God is great.
19:45God is good.
19:46Thank you, God, for our food.
19:48God is blessing to be our fed.
19:50Give us, Lord, our daily bread.
19:52Amen.
19:55Girls.
19:57You may socialize.
20:14What is all this, then?
20:15This is Daisy.
20:17Lydia asked me to make her feel welcome.
20:20Hey.
20:22It's a blessing to meet you all.
20:25Get out.
20:28Get out.
20:35We're enjoying very fine weather.
20:38By God's blessing.
20:43It's a high-pressure system, I think.
20:46Daisy.
20:47Pray.
20:48Where do you hail from?
20:50Toronto.
20:51Canada.
20:52Miss.
20:53Shunammai.
20:55That's a beautiful name.
20:57It is.
21:00I imagine Canada is very different from Gilead.
21:04Toronto has been forsaken by God and defiled by Satan.
21:09It is suffocating in sin.
21:14So do you miss it?
21:18I pray it will be swallowed whole by the earth.
21:26May he hear your prayer.
21:34Daisy.
21:36Do you like soft serve ice cream?
21:40Food is one of his miracles.
21:42They have it here.
21:43Strawberry and vanilla.
21:45Hold on, we'll take you.
21:47Yeah, I can make you a swirl cone.
21:48I'm sort of an expert.
21:50Aunt Lydia urged me to stay with Miss Agnes.
21:53Ice cream is definitely one of his miracles.
21:56And you wouldn't want to insult God.
21:58You spilled on my dress.
22:01You should get some.
22:03Come on.
22:19They stuck you with the pearl girl?
22:21What did you do wrong?
22:22She didn't do anything.
22:24This is unprecedented.
22:26So what did Aunt Lydia say?
22:28She said she's new here.
22:30I'm just supposed to be a shepherdess.
22:32I don't like her.
22:33She didn't seem very nice.
22:34Well, you can't trust her.
22:35She'll tell Aunt Lydia everything.
22:36She's a pearl girl.
22:38Here, you can have mine.
22:39Becca?
22:40Your arm of my face here to collect you.
22:43Yes, on this day.
22:47My fitting.
22:49Pray for me.
22:50I wish I was green this season.
22:52I wish we all were together.
22:56It's starting to move very, very fast.
22:59It's a dress.
23:00Not a husband.
23:03Not yet.
23:04Well, I can't wait to have a husband.
23:05Becca, free.
23:06Come along.
23:07Shake a leg.
23:09Go with Grace.
23:11In Grace, I go.
23:30She's telling her.
23:31You're a pearl girl.
23:33For what?
23:34Just say that she gossips or has a foul tongue.
23:37Or that she ran off to go get ice cream.
23:39That could be possible.
23:40She'd be punished.
23:42You're an awful person.
23:43Stop.
23:44I didn't say to make her a gender traitor or anything.
23:47Just something small.
23:51Agnes, I know that you are very, very nice.
23:54But it's time to plumb up and get her before she can see you.
24:17Cinnamon toast.
24:18Praise be, he's bound with you.
24:24Is it awful?
24:26God never sends us more than we can bear.
24:29Sometimes he does get close, though.
24:34Becca had her final fitting.
24:36She must be happy to be getting a new dress.
24:40I'm sure she looks perfect.
24:42She's a beautiful girl.
24:45She could get an offer from a commander at the dance.
24:49Her dad pit.
24:52She could marry one who lives in Wyoming.
24:55Or anywhere.
24:57Not Maryland.
24:59She won't move far if she marries a high commander.
25:02They need to live near the Capitol.
25:04She could marry one who doesn't let his wife have any friends.
25:10Try not to think about it.
25:13Rosa, how did you meet your husband?
25:17Before, I mean.
25:22We met in a bookstore.
25:26Almost everyone we knew then was meeting online on Tinder.
25:29Bumble.
25:31We met in the cookbook section.
25:34What's Tinder?
25:37It's not something you're ever going to need to know, pumpkin.
25:41Bless anything, ma'am.
25:46The commander will be home Thursday.
25:48I have some things for the Marthas to do.
25:51You said your leg was better.
25:54It is, ma'am.
25:56Good.
25:58Head up to the third floor.
25:59We'll start there.
26:03Yes, ma'am.
26:13I grew up riding.
26:15When a horse would come up late, my father would shoot it.
26:20It was hard.
26:23But it was the merciful thing to do.
26:26Haven't I told you that story?
26:29No, mother.
26:30Mother.
26:32Mother.
26:33Mother.
26:35We learned that sometimes you have to be hard.
26:39Sometimes you have to cut off weak branches and bothersome ones.
26:44You'll understand when you're running your own household.
26:49Have a good evening.
27:50Posture.
27:51All right, I'm sorry.
27:52I've got done.
27:59Plums, please assemble in the dining hall.
28:01Hurry along.
28:02Please.
28:03Here we go.
28:03Bye-bye.
28:04Bye-bye.
28:04Bye-bye.
28:05Bye-bye.
28:07Bye-bye.
28:09Bye-bye.
28:09Bye-bye.
28:09Bye-bye.
28:10Bye-bye.
28:11Bye-bye.
28:11Bye-bye.
28:11Bye-bye.
28:13Bye-bye.
28:30It's endless.
28:52What was it, Daddy?
28:55How was it?
28:56I made the door open.
28:57Fine.
28:59Shut up.
29:00It was fine.
29:02Do you like both these chickens?
29:10Blessed day, graceful friends.
29:13We need your energy
29:14because we have some difficult work
29:16to do today
29:18for him.
29:24Are you ready?
29:26Yes, I'm going to say.
29:37Oh, someone's in trouble.
29:40Good.
29:40He's the gross one.
29:42This man is a sinner
29:44hidden amongst us.
29:46He was found touching himself,
29:49abusing himself
29:50on school grounds.
29:52Gilead trusted him
29:53to protect you,
29:55God's most precious girls.
29:58Instead,
29:59he chose wickedness.
30:01We do not play
30:02with the power
30:03of creation.
30:05What are they going to do to him?
30:07Quiet.
30:08He deserves our judgment,
30:09but do not relish in it.
30:11You are not blameless, girls.
30:13Shame upon any of you
30:16that tempt a man.
30:17Now,
30:19this is your decision.
30:21You will have to make
30:22many difficult decisions
30:23when you are wives.
30:26So what do you say, girls?
30:29Should this man go unpunished?
30:31Please.
30:33Please.
30:34Or should we pay?
30:36Quiet!
31:01I am so proud
31:03of the women
31:03you are becoming.
31:21Oh, my God.
31:25Oh, my God.
31:36Frank, are you okay?
31:38I'm fine.
31:40Praise be your concern.
32:02Daisy?
32:04Daisy?
32:08What the fuck was that?
32:10You broke the rules.
32:12They cut it off.
32:14I saw his arm.
32:15Jesus Christ,
32:16he was fucking wide awake.
32:17For fucks.
32:18Jesus, what the fuck?
32:23I'm sorry.
32:25I...
32:26Agnes.
32:27Agnes.
32:29Don't...
32:29Don't tell.
32:31Oh, sweetie.
32:33Agnes,
32:34help Daisy get cleaned up.
32:52How do you feel?
32:58They told us about assemblies.
33:03I didn't think it'd be like that.
33:06Like what?
33:16Thank you for taking care of me.
33:22When Aunt Lydia gives you an assignment,
33:24you do it.
33:27It's Agnes.
33:28I am so sorry.
33:29I committed blasphemy.
33:32You were unwell.
33:34I took his name in vain.
33:36Agnes,
33:37there is no excuse.
33:40I know I must confess.
33:43Okay?
33:46Aunt Lydia is in charge of punishing pro-girls.
33:54Prayers be her discipline.
33:57I need to learn.
34:04Do you think she'll cut out my tongue?
34:08There were stories.
34:11I know.
34:12Not for this.
34:13Probably not.
34:17Okay.
34:20If it's God's will.
34:21If it's God's will.
34:23If it's God's will.
34:25If it's God's will.
34:26I can.
34:27Agnes, I can.
34:28Okay.
34:29You don't have to.
34:32You don't have to.
34:34It was just us.
34:51God sees our sins.
34:59We'll pray together.
35:01We'll show contrition.
35:05God is merciful.
35:08We answer not so much sometimes.
35:13Are you sure?
35:17Our secret.
35:26Shunemite said Daisy was dangerous.
35:29She was right, of course.
35:32She said you should never, ever trust a pro-girl.
35:35But that was exactly what I did.
35:47Blessed night, my friends.
35:51May God protect you.
