00:01Previously on The Testaments.
00:03The House Decide are contenders today.
00:05Two to three suitors each, usually.
00:07Then house visits.
00:08Then weddings.
00:08Then prison for the rest of our lives.
00:10Your matches are a success.
00:12This is Commander Weston.
00:14This is the commander to impress.
00:16Is this it?
00:17I'm in love.
00:18Who?
00:19Garth.
00:20Commander Olsen has a beachfront property with over 50 acres,
00:23but Commander Pierce has a 10 handicap in golf.
00:25Agnes, who did you get?
00:27Commander Pritzker, Commander Riley, and Commander Weston.
00:31Weston runs the eyes, my Martha says.
00:33Have you gotten any matches?
00:35Commander Chapin.
00:36Who is he?
00:37My guardian.
00:38Please don't marry him.
00:39I don't get to choose any of this.
00:41I don't want to marry anyone.
00:43He's your match, right?
00:44Yeah, that's him.
00:45They're investigating the May Day attack.
00:47I overheard my father this morning.
00:49No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:52I have my first green appointment today with a tailor.
00:56And then soon your dad to get my teeth whitened.
00:58You are not blameless, girls.
01:01Shame upon any of you that tempt a man.
01:05Do you have a nice visit with Becca?
01:09I have to say, Agnes is very impressive.
01:13Is there anything you'd like to ask me?
01:14I only hope I can measure up to your expectations of a wife.
01:45And anyone who's ever played a part.
01:51Wouldn't turn around and hate it.
01:55I had a rich fantasy life.
01:58Even in Gilead, that was possible.
02:02The only difference here was that I believed that God knew about it.
02:05And judged me.
02:08And judged me.
02:08In the sweet, sweet jail.
02:12In the sweet, sweet jail.
02:14Heavenly the wine and roses
02:19Seem to whisper to me
02:23When you smile
02:26When you smile
02:28When you smile
02:30When you smile
02:32When you smile
02:34When you smile
02:34When you smile
02:35Becca was going to marry Garth.
02:38I wasn't supposed to know yet, but Paula let it slip.
02:41So I found out before the others.
02:45When I first heard
02:46When I first heard
02:46My chest started burning like I was swallowing hot wax.
02:50Like I was being scraped raw from the inside.
02:54I guess I was.
03:05But I couldn't be angry at Becca.
03:07She didn't have a choice.
03:10None of us did.
03:15That's it.
03:16Praise be.
03:18Welcome to my engagement.
03:20Praise be his mercy.
03:21Mastery gun.
03:24I have to glue the plate back together before my wedding.
03:27The remade plate is more precious because it's been lovingly restored.
03:32Destruction.
03:33And resurrection.
03:36Congratulations on your portrayal, sweetheart.
03:40Okay.
03:41Picture time.
03:43Come up.
03:43Guess I'm up.
03:44Yes.
03:45Yes.
03:45Right over there.
03:47In the tier right here.
03:48Yes.
03:50I was to enter marriage a properly broken woman.
03:54Just as God meant me to be.
03:59Just as my husband expected.
04:15Blessed day.
04:18And congratulations.
04:24On your engagement.
04:27Thanks.
04:30Same to you.
04:30doc.
04:32He's blessed us both.
04:40Blessed day.
04:59glass
05:05What's the day? Who'd you get? Silence! Come along, girls. In we go.
05:18You won't be following Agnes today. What? Why not? Curiosity is the devil at work.
05:24We'll be down the hall today. You too, Shunammite. Off you go, the both of you.
05:37Why are we in trouble? Copulation class. Must be. Oh. Eligible girls only.
05:44But I'm sure you know all about that stuff. Yeah. I know about copulation.
05:49I don't need to tell you, though. You seem to know everything. Hm.
05:57Do you know what happened to Talia? The pearl girl who was taken by the eyes?
06:02She won't be back.
06:05But what if she didn't do anything wrong?
06:09Well, if the eyes took her, then she did something wrong.
06:13Come on. We have a lame class to get to.
06:21We had waited so long to hear this. The mysteries of life. The mysteries of marriage.
06:28What would happen when we shared a bed with our husbands?
06:32Lord, please keep these girls' minds free from sin today.
06:37To teach creation is a delicate path, and we endeavor to step only where you wish. Amen.
06:43Amen.
06:48God's sacred vessel. Each of you has one.
06:52Amen.
06:53This is where your baby will grow.
06:55But only if you are God-fearing girls, and He chooses to bless you with child.
07:00On your wedding night, when it is time for you to endeavor to create new life,
07:04your husband will instruct, and you will follow.
07:08As long as you stay meek and deferential,
07:12your husband will guide your hand in your wifely duties, as in all things.
07:16As Ephesians tells us,
07:20wives, you shall obey your husband in everything, as you would obey the Lord.
07:29Now let's move on to pregnancy and prenatal nutrition.
07:33Our education was left wanting.
08:11What is taking you so long?
08:13I'll just be a minute.
08:17What's in there?
08:21You?
08:24This isn't fair.
08:26Even a pearl girl gets her period before I do?
08:28Why is God doing this to me?
08:30Please don't tell them.
08:31I'm the one who eats organic vegetables and drinks clean water,
08:34and you grew up in garbage.
08:38What are you doing?
08:39You have to show that to the ants so that you can ring the bell.
08:41I can't.
08:42I can't.
08:43They'll make me get married.
08:44Of course they will.
08:46Why do you think you're here, Daisy?
08:48On Earth?
08:49Shouldn't I?
08:50Please don't tell anyone.
08:53Shouldn't I?
08:57Fine.
09:02When do you think Aunt Lydia will make announcements?
09:05Hmm?
09:11You okay?
09:14Yes.
09:15Pray.
09:15Why wouldn't I be?
09:18Are you disappointed with your engagement?
09:26He's nice.
09:29It's fine.
09:30He said maybe we could get a dog.
09:49What is it?
09:56I had a cleaning with Dr. Grove.
10:02No.
10:02Never mind.
10:03No.
10:03What happened?
10:05Hold up.
10:06Tell me.
10:06Please.
10:07You won't say anything?
10:08I promise.
10:17He took my hand.
10:20And...
10:23I pressed it against his body.
10:28I didn't...
10:29I didn't know what to do.
10:33I betrayed the flesh and his word.
10:35And now I'm gonna burn in hell forever and ever and ever and ever.
10:39You need to tell the ants.
10:40No.
10:40No, I sinned.
10:41I...
10:43I tempted him.
10:45It's my fault.
10:46I lured him.
10:47I ensnared him with my body.
10:48I ensnared Becca's dad.
10:50You're not supposed to do that.
10:52Only your husband is.
10:54You need to tell the ants.
10:56They will help you.
10:57No.
10:57No, I can't.
10:59The ants will freak out and then...
11:00They will help you.
11:01Everyone will know.
11:05Be strong and courageous.
11:06Do not be afraid for the Lord God is with you.
11:11I'm with you, Hulda.
11:23I bet you think I was being a real shit.
11:26I told myself I wasn't quite sure of what Dr. Grove had done to me.
11:30So Hulda had to be the one to speak out.
11:35Until Hulda, I had been able to lie to myself.
11:41And it knows I live in love...
11:46Agnes!
11:47Agnes! Agnes!
11:48Agnes!
11:49Help her!
11:53I have to help her.
11:56Agnes!
11:57I have to help her!
12:02Bless us, O God,
12:07in these thy gifts which we are about
12:08to receive from thy bounty.
12:10Blessed be the fruit, girls.
12:13May the Lord go to heaven.
12:17When each of you first entered
12:19the gates of this institution,
12:21it was with one goal
12:23in mind, to prepare
12:25you for tomorrow.
12:27For marriage, motherhood,
12:30serving God.
12:32Today, we rejoice
12:33with the daughters of Gilead
12:35who have taken that first step.
12:38Blessings on Constance Wickham,
12:40who was to marry Commander Moore.
12:44On Jehoshabah Yardam,
12:46who was to marry Commander Caldwell.
12:51Blessings on Rebecca Grove,
12:53who was to marry soon to be Commander Chapin.
12:59On Miriam Dawson,
13:01who was to marry Commander Lewis.
13:03Commander Collins.
13:05On Huldah Marie Edwardson,
13:08who was to marry Commander Thomas.
13:10Praise be to God.
13:11Praise be to God.
13:14And blessings on Agnes Mackenzie,
13:17who was to wed Commander Weston,
13:20a man chosen by God to lead and protect.
13:27Congratulations on your betrothals.
13:29May the Lord bless you and keep you.
13:32Amen.
13:34Praise be his name.
13:37You all are engaged.
13:42We did it.
13:47Have you been to Commander Thomas' house yet?
13:50Yes.
13:52Is it big?
13:53Mm-hmm.
13:54Paula must love all the wedding planning.
13:57Yeah.
13:59My mom said Chapin's father was a big commander back in the day.
14:03The pedigree does matter, I guess.
14:05You dodged a bullet.
14:07They let me decide.
14:10I chose Garth.
14:12Garth?
14:15Guardian Chapin.
14:17He's my fiancé now.
14:19Congratulations.
14:21Does your pearl girl always have to sit with us?
14:24She's my friend.
14:25Okay, why is everybody being so touchy?
14:28Today is supposed to be about having fun.
14:32Can't we just have fun?
14:36Who do you think is going to throw the first engagement party?
14:38Me.
14:40The invitations are being hand-delivered today.
14:43First party of the season.
14:45Nice.
15:06It's too cloying.
15:07You've tried seven cakes and haven't liked a single bite.
15:12This tasting was a courtesy, Agnes.
15:15Commander, what do you think?
15:18Well, me.
15:20I like them all, but I have a bit of a sweet tooth.
15:22I'm really happy to keep tasting samples, actually.
15:29Put a pin in the Chantilly cream.
15:34Have a look at the flower arrangements, hmm?
15:39Hopefully they won't be as unpleasant.
15:45If you don't like any of these cakes, we're going to find you something else.
15:50Whatever Mrs. McKenzie picked will be fine.
15:51No, it's your wedding.
15:53It's not hers.
15:54I want this to be fun for you.
15:56Especially the cake part.
15:59The greeting people.
16:00Sounds a little bit like torture, but...
16:06Agnes.
16:10I'm really excited about our future together.
16:13I was kind of hoping that excitement might be contagious.
16:19An invitation to Becca's engagement party.
16:22First of the season.
16:24Someone was prepared.
16:26Any choices?
16:34This one's really beautiful.
16:37Mm-hmm.
16:40Cala Lilies, yeah.
16:41May I urge you to reconsider the Ranunculus?
16:44It's so elegant.
16:45I don't want to reconsider the Ranunculus, Paula.
16:50I think Agnes has made our choice.
16:54Wonderful.
16:57Calla Lilies it is.
17:06Congratulations on West End.
17:09Thanks.
17:11You too.
17:13My Martha says his is one of the better colonies.
17:16Agriculture, not toxic waste or anything, but...
17:19My mother still won't come out of her room.
17:22Agnes.
17:22Aunt Fidala would like to see you in Aunt Lydia's office.
17:25This way.
17:49I know Holder spoke to you and cast some aspersions upon one of the upstanding men in our community.
17:55I know Holder spoke to you and cast some aspersions upon one of the upstanding men in our community.
17:56After our talk, she realized she was confused and that it was her own ill-imagination at work.
18:07I want to make sure that this episode of misunderstanding goes no further than this room.
18:15We wouldn't want to jeopardize.
18:17We wouldn't want to jeopardize Holder's engagement in any way.
18:19She made a mistake.
18:21We need not speak of it again.
18:25Do you agree?
18:30Yes, Abedala.
18:33Now you definitely think I'm a shit.
18:36I had sent Holder into the coal mine like a canary.
18:39And when I saw her gasping for air, I bolted for the exit.
18:45Don't worry.
18:47I think I'm a shit too.
18:57Agnes?
18:59Agnes, I'm really, really sorry.
19:00I was just confused.
19:01I'm so sorry, Agnes.
19:02Agnes, listen.
19:04You have so much to look forward to right now.
19:11Think about your engagement.
19:19You're gonna live a great life, Holder.
19:25I believe that.
19:29You do.
19:32Hey, man.
19:47Yes, Constance.
19:48I can't find my embroidery project.
19:50What was it?
19:51A pot holder of Stars and Mance.
19:54I'm sure it'll turn up.
19:56Why don't you use the loom today?
19:58You can start on some placements.
20:00Yes, Aunt Cabana.
20:16I know you stole it from Constance.
20:19You have to give it back.
20:21Trust me, she wouldn't want it back now.
20:24How long are you going to try to hide it from the aunts?
20:27Why do you care anyway?
20:29Do you really want to be known as the last prepubescent girl standing?
20:38I've done everything.
20:41Everything that I'm supposed to.
20:44And I'm the one who's going to die an old, withered prune.
20:48You're not.
20:50I was just saying that.
20:54Every day, my mom asks me if I've had any cramping.
20:59Any twinges?
21:00Sip.
21:03I've had to watch all of my friends get it and act happy for them, and now you.
21:08Well, you don't need to act happy for me.
21:12I'm not happy about it.
21:14A pearl girl is going to get married before me.
21:18It's so humiliating.
21:19Not if they never find out.
21:21You won't be able to hide it forever.
21:24You lucky slut.
21:28I can't let my parents down.
21:34My little brother was one of the 68 taken on the Night of Tears.
21:38Angel's flight?
21:39My mother keeps a picture of him in a locket around her neck.
21:44I can't be barren.
21:46I can't.
21:48She doesn't deserve that.
21:53I'm really sorry, Shin Amai.
21:57You can call me Shu.
22:03Cool.
22:13So, um, do you want to know what sex is?
22:21Yes, I do.
22:24Tell me everything.
22:26Well, everything's quite a lot in this case, but, um, men have a penis, and it gets hard
22:32when they get turned on.
22:34Well, like, aroused.
22:36And when it's hard, they can insert into a woman's vagina like a rod, and then eventually
22:41it will release this liquid.
22:44Basically, microscopic cells are in this liquid, and sometimes these cells can swim up through
22:51the woman and fertilize an egg.
22:54And that's how a baby's made.
22:58Wow.
23:00Honestly.
23:02Wow.
23:07Swim up, rod of flesh.
23:11You must think I'm very stupid.
23:17Swim up.
23:50That's Garth's dad?
23:53What happened to him?
23:54Rosa said he left the fight to keep Boston.
23:56She said they would have lost a day sooner if it went for him.
24:02don't they have marthas for that i've only seen like two marthas well i guess you don't need

31:29No, thank you, Aunt Lydia.
31:32Are you enjoying yourself, dear?
31:38Aunt Lydia, I imagine Aunt Vidala has talked to you about it the other day.
31:42With Holda.
31:49She's telling the truth.
31:54I'm sure of it.
31:57I'm very sure, Aunt Lydia.
32:09Agnes, when you are a married woman, and a very powerful one at that given your match,
32:15you won't have to go back to the dentist anymore, and neither will Holda.
32:20The wicked and enemies of the Lord will perish.
32:25Like smoke, they will drift away.
32:27But, Aunt Lydia, what?
32:28They who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength.
32:39I didn't realize Aunt Lydia was telling me Dr. Grove would be dealt with.
33:04Mrs. McKenzie's looking for you.
33:08She can fly down here on her broomstick.
33:13I'll be up in a minute.
33:19Wait.
33:20Here.
33:21Come quick.
33:22Hurry.
33:23Put them in your cloak.
33:26Is she who told you?
33:29Who else did she tell?
33:30The aunts?
33:31No, no, she would never.
33:34You don't turn on your friends, ever.
33:36Not here, at least.
33:39Yet, it's your best friend's engagement party.
33:42And you're here.
33:45Hiding from her.
33:49You don't understand.
33:51You're in love with Garth.
33:55She's not the reason I can't go back up.
34:04I can't be around Becca's dad.
34:11He did things to me.
34:18Things that shouldn't have been done.
34:21I...
34:21I'm so sorry that happened to you.
34:24You're the only one I can tell.
34:28I didn't want to sully anyone else.
34:31It's not your fault.
34:34You know that, right?
34:36What if he saw lust in me?
34:38Not for him, for Garth.
34:40And he saw my desires and...
34:42It's easier to blame yourself.
34:44Than to blame him.
34:47But listen to me.
34:53You need to tell Aunt Lydia.
34:55Okay?
34:57I'll come with you if you're scared.
35:03I already did tell Aunt Lydia.
35:09No, just me.
35:12And what's she gonna do about it?
35:25I'm really glad you told me.
35:37I couldn't possibly have known what Daisy was going to do.
35:41Like I said before...
35:43Never trust a fucking pearl girl.
35:45No, it was by my Hä?
36:02No...
36:02No, no, no, no, no...
36:06No, no, no, no, no, no.
36:08No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
36:10No, I'm just going with you.
36:12No, no, no.
36:12Whatever can be.
36:12No, no, no!
36:12No, no, no!
