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?
04:55You know...
05:01We're in difficile, actually.
05:04Look out!
05:32Please remove any items.
05:34Jewelry, cell phone, whatever's on your person, handbags.
05:41Everything into the containers.
05:50Don't worry, man. We've got your belongings back soon.
06:00Let's go! Let's go!
06:02Oh, my God!
06:03Kate!
06:05Don't touch me!
06:11Hey!
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?
06:40That doesn't make any sense.
06:41Just 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 is this?
06:59What are they doing with that?
07:00What's going on?
07:02What the fuck are you going to do to that?
07:04I'm sick!
07:06I'm sick!
07:08I'm sick!
07:09I'm sick!
07:09I'm sick!
07:10I'm sick!
07:10I'm sick!
07:11I'm sick!
07:12I'm sick!
07:15I'm sick!
07:17I'm sick!
07:20I'm sick!
07:21The sons of these women
07:23I found them out.���ilitальная

07:46Austin!
07:52Commander Maddox has expressed interest in Becca.
07:55That's promising.
07:57Commander 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 John, perhaps you should administer to Hulda.
08:13She still needs to be certified.
08:38Bring 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.
08:54Good night.
08:56Good night.
09:08Good night.
09:09Good night.
09:35I'm so happy for you.
09:48I'm so happy for you.
10:10I'm so happy for you.
10:11Move it!
10:11Please!
10:12Please!
10:14Where are they taking them?
10:16No!
10:17No!
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?
10:40What if she winds up with a commander from the colonies?
10:42Then I wind up with a commander from the colonies.
10:45Becca, do you know that some of your friends put themselves in jeopardy trying to save your
10:50reputation?
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 Hulda 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 Hulda, God has provided you the opportunity to step into your womanhood with an important
11:41lesson.
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.
12:25Hold on.
12:27Hold Chunamite's arms down on the desk.
12:45Hold on.
12:47Hold on.
12:48Hold on.
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.
13:40Get up!
13:41Move!
13:43One takes one.
13:46Make 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.
14:09Also, it passes the time.
14:15Get up!
14:17Get up!
14:17I'm not!
14:18I got you!
14:20I got you!
14:20I got you!
14:21I got you!
14:36Come on!
14:39I got you!
14:46I got you!
14:47I got you!
14:53I got you!
14:56I got you!
14:57About what?
14:59The coffee.
15:01I forgot it was my turn.
15:05and what 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, one bottle.
16:09Pass it over here.
16:25I'm sorry about your friend.
16:30I'm sorry, too.
16:37I learned quickly that having friends 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, first my handmaids, then my precious flowers, but it doesn't
16:54always stick.
16:56Rachel, pass it over here.
16:59You have one of the things that comes so bad.
17:06Shiu, how are your hands?
17:08Fine.
17:10It's not Jehoshua myself right now.
17:13I think maybe you guys should cool it on this laughing for a while.
17:20I heard some news from the nurse's office.
17:25Penny's gone into labor.
17:27Oh, that's awesome.
17:29Oh, hold up.
17:30It's too early.
17:32Right?
17:34This is her third pregnancy.
17:36The others ended.
17:45Dear Lord, watch over our friend Penny and her baby.
17:49Keep them safe.
17:50Offer them strength, healing, and hope.
17:52Amen.
17:54Amen.
18:03Help!
18:04On your feet!
18:05No!
18:06Let go of me!
18:07Let go!
18:08No!
18:09No!
18:26Come!
18:27Hey, come inside, he's coming through!
18:30Oh my god!
18:33No!
18:34No!
18:36No!
18:41Ow!
18:43Ow!
18:43Ow!
18:44Misogynists, who openly disdain women?
18:47One needn't fear them.
18:49W-h--
18:50The men who understand the power of women, who want to control it instead of deny it,
18:56there is no one more terrifying.
18:59I 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
19:15that is determining where each of you shall be placed in this new order.
19:18What order? They haven't told us anything.
19:29Fifty-eight.
19:31You mean my age? Yes.
19:33Never married.
19:35No. Does that matter?
19:42You 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 lie is retroactive?
19:59Well, I love children. That's why I wanted to teach.
20:02Ah, 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 patience.
20:22And allies.
20:24Wherever 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,
20:38hoping to improve their outcomes.
20:42I do have a suggestion.
20:45One 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,
21:02shouldn't they be truly separate?
21:05Surely you have better things to do than concern yourself with the petty details of all of this.
21:11Who is going to teach the girls to be women and the women to be better women, women of God?
21:21Delegation is but one of his many virtues.
21:32Have there been any inquiries?
21:34No.
21:35But what if someone inquires about Agnes McKenzie's lineage?
21:39She's the daughter of a handmaid.
21:41There's nothing shameful in that.
21:43Not just any handmaid.
21:46We 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.
22:13Is there something I can help you with?
22:17With the new offensive against May Day, some of our commanders have been shuttled to the front.
22:25So, these men should be taken out of the running until next season.
22:31Thank you, Commander.
22:33Your guidance is essential as we match our girls.
22:39Commander, how is your dear wife?
22:41I hear she's experiencing complications.
22:45It's hard to be at home watching it all unfold.
22:49Come now.
22:51There's no need to distract yourself with these women's issues.
22:55Rest your mind.
22:57Yes.
22:59Perhaps you were right, Aunt Lydia.
23:04I will handle this.
23:06After all these years, don't you trust me?
23:17Attention, girls.
23:18Physical education will conclude at two bells.
23:21Do not forget to stretch after exerting yourself.
23:2448, 49, 50.
23:27Okay.
23:29Agnes, 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 anyway?
23:50Right, Becca, you're kind of going off the deep end.
23:53After what happened at the ball, you should be throwing yourself at the mercy of Aunt Lydia.
23:58Maybe 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.
24:06Some people would give anything for the right match.
24:09What?
24:10What?
24:11Ag-Agnus.
24:15Agnes.
24:27I'm in love.
24:30And it's horrible.
24:36Who?
24:43Garth.
24:45My guardian.
24:50How do you know that you're in love with him?
24:58Anytime I'm near him, I feel hot.
25:01And my 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.
25:27No matter what, that's a blessing.
25:33No matter what, that's a blessing.
25:44No matter what, that's a blessing.
25:47Agnes McKenzie, shouldn't you be on your way to class?
25:53Yes, Aunt Lydia.
25:55Can I help you with something?
26:07Yes, Aunt Lydia.
26:09Maybe.
26:11I have a question.
26:13Or a request.
26:14A request?
26:16Very respectfully, Aunt Lydia.
26:18Very.
26:19All right, then.
26:27My guardian, the one who showed bravery on the bus that day when made a...
26:31I 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.
27:00Now get to class.
27:01Late girls are difficult girls.
27:04Go in grace.
27:11This is the last day of childhood for these girls.
27:17Innocence can be lost in so many ways.
27:21Ladies.
27:24Come in...
27:25Come in.
28:03Miss Cromance, they look fresh.
28:09Now, if you are to join our cause, you'll have to prove you mean it.
28:16Are you prepared to do that?
28:18Yes.
28:27Oh, no, no, no, please, please.
28:32I beg of you. I can't. No, no, no, please.
28:36Let me just say this. Those who are not with us are against us.
28:45So which is it to be?
28:49No, no, no, please.
28:51Don'tみ.
28:52No, no, no!
28:54No, no!
28:55No, no, no!
28:56No!
28:57No!
28:58No, no, no.
29:33Please, God, help me.
29:45Help me.
29:48Please.
29:50Please, God, help me.
29:52Please, God, help me.
30:00Please, God, help me.
30:01No, no, no.
30:05No, no, no.
30:06No, no, no.
30:07No, no, no.
30:18No, no, no, no.
30:20Sinners are always visible to the divine eye.
30:25The sins of these women have found them out.
30:28No, no, no, no.
30:40No, no, no.
30:43No, no, no, no.
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.
31:26By his hands.
31:28License.
31:29Oh, my God.
31:37Bye bye.
31:40code cost.
31:41timely operations
32:19Hold 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?
33:50It isn'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.
34:11Your price is above rubies.
34:15Praise be.
34:17Praise be.
34:31Was I a phoenix, rising from the ashes?
34:35Or was I a cockroach?
34:37I wasn't sure anymore.
34:39But I was alive.
34:41Miss Clements, come in.
34:47We 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.
35:18This one.
35:23It's a little rough.
35:26Might not be the most comfortable to the touch.
35:29No.
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.
36:17Poor 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.
36:37But 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 Agnes.
37:17See you tomorrow.
37:20See ya.
37:35The Lord has challenged us today, hasn't he?
37:38I pray we are worthy of his gifts.
37:41Even if they don't seem like gifts at first.
37:45I know his aunts aren't always generous with praise, but it's worth mentioning you've been
37:50an exemplary pearl girl, today and all the days.
37:54I am grateful for the chance to serve, especially after my previous indiscretions.
38:00It takes time to adjust to the ways of Gilead.
38:03I made mistakes too.
38:06You're not from Gilead?
38:10Where are you from?
38:12Well, we're all of the same earth, dust to dust.
38:16But how did you end up in Gilead?
38:18How did you become an aunt?
38:21Well, dear, you need to have a calling.
38:24I 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 bloodlines.
38:46Our matches are as clean as a wooden whistle.
38:51Yes, Aunt Lydia.
38:52I believe a celebration is in order.
38:55Each season brings its own obstacle, and this season has been particularly stimulating.
39:01May our greens move forward into holy matrimony as God intended.
39:08Blessed be the fruit.
39:10May the Lord open.
39:18It is now time to tell the girls' families.
39:23Oh, what delicious news they shall receive.
39:58We have done our best to teach these girls.
40:01To 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?
40:22Enduring 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.
40:41Women of God.
40:42women of God.
40:46Women of God.
40:46Women of God.
40:51Women of God.
40:54Women of God.
40:55I made another promise.
40:57After what happened to my girls at Jezebel's, after Boston fell, after the sting of the noose around my neck
41:05began to wear off, I vowed to document everything.
41:09and every one.
41:12Yes, aunts were afforded the special privilege
41:16of being allowed to write,
41:17the only women in Gilead who could.
41:21But what was I writing?
41:23Recording the crimes of weak men and far too many women?
41:28That was not allowed.
41:30That could bring down these men,
41:32chosen by God to lead us.
41:39Let's go.
42:05I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
42:09The corrupt and blood-smeared fingerprints of the past must be wiped away for the morally
42:15pure generation that is surely about to arrive.
42:19But among these bloody fingerprints are those made by ourselves, and they can't be wiped
42:26away so easily.
42:29May God protect these girls, because I'm not sure I can.
42:48May God protect them.
