00:00My place with the young lady?
00:01Garth was becoming a commander.
00:02And if he were a commander, he could be mine.
00:05Do not let them get my girls drunk.
00:08I'll have a word with them.
00:09Why don't we get a refreshment?
00:12Sue, I think I'm gonna be sick.
00:13She's drunk.
00:15It's a shame a girl with such promise.
00:18Throw it all away.
00:19As he blessed Ruth and Leah, he is blessed to be the same.
00:23By his hand, may he make me fruitful.
00:25Praise be.
00:27I trust your expectations were met.
00:30Hardly.
00:31I saw more than one girl plied with drinks.
00:34You failed.
00:35How was I supposed to...
00:36You still have much to prove.
00:39Well, Renfadala, I think maybe the time's come for you and I to discuss our vision in the future.
00:48Excuse me, commander.
01:19In my own present day, I am an object of curiosity.
01:24Not to the world outside of Gilead.
01:27To these girls.
01:50Do you stop pacing?
01:52You're making me nervous.
01:53Chill.
01:53How?
01:54How?
01:55Why?
01:56What's going on?
01:57The aunts decide our contenders today.
02:00Two to three suitors each, usually.
02:01Then house visits.
02:02Then weddings.
02:03Then prison for the rest of our lives.
02:06Don't say that.
02:08Why not?
02:10Whatever is in God's hands now.
02:12Or the aunts.
02:13Is there a difference?
02:14What's in God's hands?
02:19What's in God's hands?
02:28What's in God's hands?
02:30What's in God's hands?
02:32What's in God's hands?
02:33What's in God's hands?
02:33What's in God's hands?
02:33What's in God's hands?
02:34What's in God's hands?
02:35What's in God's hands?
02:35What's in God's hands?
02:35What's in God's hands?
02:35What's in God's hands?
02:36What's in God's hands?
02:36What's in God's hands?
02:38What's in God's hands?
02:43What's in God's hands?
02:59While I may be a mystery to them, these girls are no mystery to me.
03:04Let's begin, shall we?
03:06Jehoshiba wants power.
03:08Holda, security.
03:09But Agnes, well, I'm not sure what she wants.
03:13Not yet.
03:14Their fates are in my mortal hands.
03:17An unmarried woman picking husbands for each girl who passes through these halls.
03:22The irony is not lost on me.
03:26School canceled again, I take it?
03:28This is the fourth time this month.
03:30Fine by me.
03:31My classroom's a mess.
03:32I could use a day to clean it up.
03:39Whose turn was it to replace the coffee?
03:41Vivian's.
03:42And Vivian is where?
03:46You're late.
03:47Did you bring some coffee?
03:48Something's happening.
03:50There are some men outside.
03:51They're armed.
03:52That's weird.
03:53Keith, they want to talk to you.
03:55To me?
03:57Mm-hmm.
03:57Okay?
04:01What's happening?
04:04What's happening?
04:16I don't know.
04:48Please remove any items. Jewelry, cell phone, whatever's on your person. Handbags. Everything into the containers.
05:05Don't worry, man. We'll get your belongings back soon.
05:14Let's go! Let's go!
05:16Hey! Touch me!
05:25Hey! You two!
05:29Susan Snyder. You're the pregnant one.
05:33I don't know.
05:36No husband, right?
05:38I have a partner.
05:40Take her to the box store.
05:41Excuse me, where are you?
05:43There's nothing you can do.
05:45Come with me!
05:48What is going on?
05:49What's he doing?
05:50Just because she's pregnant?
05:52That doesn't make any sense.
05:53Just at all.
05:57It quickly became clear there had been a coup.
06:01A forced change of leadership.
06:04The first of many to come.
06:06What would transpire next, none of us knew.
06:09What is this?
06:10What are they doing with that?
06:11What's going on?
06:13What the fuck are you gonna do to that?
06:15Get out of here!
06:18Get out of here!
06:22Get out of here!
06:36Get down!
06:36I don't know.
06:39By his hand.
06:42Get down!
06:46Let's go under your seats!
06:49Get down! Get down!
07:01Commander Maddox has expressed interest in Becca.
07:04That's promising.
07:06Commander Maddox is the man who gave alcohol to Becca at the ball.
07:10And you intend to reward his terrible behavior?
07:14It's left Becca without any other options.
07:18Unfortunately, so...
07:19Bajala, perhaps you should administer to Hulda.
07:21She still needs to be certified.
07:44Bring her in.
07:51I'm ready.
07:53Please come in.
07:55Blessed be the fruit, Aunt Vidala.
07:57Yes, yes.
07:58Pull down your undergarments and have a seat.
07:59I'm ready to go.
08:01I'm ready.
08:18I'm ready.
08:23Let's go ahead.
08:25Let's go ahead.
08:34Please be.
08:39I am so happy for you.
09:15Where are they taking them?
09:19Fuck if I know.
09:33My mother still isn't speaking to me.
09:35Not since what happened at the mall.
09:37That wasn't your fault.
09:39Who cares?
09:40What if she winds up with a commander from the colonies?
09:43Then I wind up with a commander from the colonies.
09:46Becca.
09:47Do you know that some of your friends put themselves in jeopardy
09:49trying to save your reputation?
09:52From wicked girls.
09:55Jealous prune.
09:57Why did she just call you?
09:59Prune.
10:00You know, like a plum that never turns green.
10:14Girls, good news.
10:17Our dear Holda has been touched by his divine hand.
10:21She is officially agreeing and thus eligible this season.
10:25You may celebrate.
10:30That's enough.
10:33Now, Holda, God has provided you the opportunity to step into your womanhood
10:38with an important lesson.
10:42What do you think the punishment ought to be for a girl who uses violence upon another girl?
10:57Such a girl ought to have her hands bound and whipped.
11:06Very well.
11:21Holda.
11:23Hold Junamite's arms down on the desk.
11:26Holden.
11:29Holden.
11:30Holden.
11:40Holden.
11:42Holden.
11:51Holden.
11:55Holden.
12:07Teaching these girls was like a recipe for a tough steak.
12:12Hammer it with a mallet, then marinate and tenderize.
12:21I had seen it hooked before, on myself and other women.
12:31Pass it down the line.
12:35Everyone takes one.
12:38Make this and pass it down the line.
12:50Some wolfed and guzzled, but I made my portion last as long as possible.
12:55Chewing and swallowing distracts from mental wheel speed.
12:59Also, it passes the time.
13:02How old are you?
13:08How old are you?
13:13How old are you?
13:42I'm sorry.
13:45About what?
13:48The coffee.
13:49I forgot it was my turn.
13:53What I wouldn't do for a cup of coffee right now.
13:57With milk.
14:00Warm milk.
14:12You are a damn fine teacher, Lydia.
14:21So are you.
14:35Here, pass it down.
14:37One bottle each.
14:39Pass it around.
14:43Just a few slips, we don't know what we're going to do.
14:49One slice, one bottle.
14:52Red, here.
14:54Pass it over here.
14:56Yeah, I'll be here.
14:59Water, thank you.
15:09I'm sorry about your friend.
15:14I'm sorry too.
15:21I learned quickly that having friends in Gilead was a liability.
15:26It would only bring pain and suffering.
15:29I've tried to pass this lesson along to my girls.
15:32First, my handmaids.
15:34Then, my precious flowers.
15:36But it doesn't always stick.
15:40What's it?
15:41You're a lot of people.
15:43I'm so bad.
15:48Shoot, how are your hands?
15:50Fine.
15:52I slept a host of myself right now.
15:55I think maybe you guys should cool it on us laughing for a while.
16:02I heard some news from the nurse's office.
16:06Penny's gone into labor.
16:09Oh, that's awesome.
16:11Oh, hold up.
16:12It's too early.
16:13Right?
16:15This is her third pregnancy.
16:17The other's ended.
16:26Dear Lord, watch over our friend Penny and her.
16:28Baby, keep them safe.
16:31Offer them strength, healing, and hope.
16:33Amen.
16:34Amen.
16:43No!
16:44No!
16:44No!
16:45Let go of me!
16:46Let go!
16:47No!
16:48No!
17:05Hey, come to the side.
17:06He's got a purple.
17:09Oh, my God.
17:22Misogynists who openly disdain women, one needn't fear them.
17:27But the men who understand the power of women, who want to control it instead of deny it,
17:33there is no one more terrifying.
17:36I can sit by myself.
17:39God.
17:39Good evening.
17:41Well, good morning.
17:43I've lost track.
17:45I'm Commander Judd of the Sons of Jacob.
17:48And I've been tasked with the so-called women's sphere that is determining where each of you shall be placed
17:54in this new order.
17:55What order?
17:56They haven't told us anything.
18:05Fifty-eight.
18:07You mean my age?
18:08Yes.
18:09Never married.
18:10No.
18:11Does that matter?
18:17You had an abortion.
18:22I was very young.
18:25You're aware that this form of person murder is now punishable by death?
18:30And that the lie is retroactive?
18:33Well, I love children.
18:35That's why I wanted to teach.
18:37Ah, yes.
18:38Women have been told for so long that they can achieve equality in the professional and public arenas.
18:43I don't expect them to welcome the segregation, but they will have to adjust.
18:48It is God's will, after all.
18:52Surviving these men requires patience and allies, wherever you can find them.
19:01Well, I for one commend the work you are doing.
19:07You would be surprised how many women have said that same thing sitting in that chair, hoping to improve their
19:12outcomes.
19:14I do have a suggestion, one that might improve your own outcome.
19:23What is it that you suggest?
19:28If you believe society is best served by separate spheres for men and women, shouldn't they be truly separate?
19:36Surely you have better things to do than concern yourself with the petty details of all of this.
19:43Who is going to teach the girls to be women, and the women to be better women, women of God?
19:51Delegation is but one of his many virtues.
20:01Have there been any inquiries?
20:04No.
20:05But what if someone inquires about Agnes McKenzie's lineage?
20:09She's the daughter of a handmaid.
20:11There's nothing shameful in that.
20:12Not just any handmaid.
20:15Agnes McKenzie, we are not here to judge.
20:17Let that be God's province.
20:19Our job is to prevent the possibility of inbreeding so the children of Gilead may thrive.
20:25Are we all in concert?
20:27Rolling together now?
20:32Bless the day.
20:33Bless the day, Commander Judd.
20:35What an unexpected surprise.
20:38Ah.
20:41Is there something I can help you with?
20:45With a new offensive against May Day, some of our commanders have been shuttled to the front.
20:52So, these men should be taken out of the running until next season.
20:58Thank you, Commander.
21:00Your guidance is essential as we match our girls.
21:05Commander, how is your dear wife?
21:08I hear she's experiencing complications.
21:11It's hard to be at home watching it all unfold.
21:16Come now.
21:17There's no need to distract yourself with these women's issues.
21:21Rest your mind.
21:23Yes.
21:24Perhaps you're right, Amidia.
21:30I will handle this.
21:32After all these years, don't you trust me?
21:42Attention, girls.
21:43Physical education will conclude at two bells.
21:46Do not forget to stretch after exerting the trice.
21:4848, 49, 50.
21:51Okay.
21:53Agnes, your turn.
21:56Agnes.
21:58Sorry.
21:59I was distracted.
22:00No kidding.
22:01This sucks.
22:02In a few weeks, you'll all be gone and I'll still be here by myself.
22:05I didn't mean to get my period.
22:07Who cares?
22:09Who wants to get married anyway?
22:13All right, Becca, you're kind of going off the deep end.
22:16After what happened at the ball, you should be throwing yourself at the mercy of Alidia.
22:21Maybe I'll get lucky and I won't get any offers.
22:23Then I can stay here with you, Sheila.
22:25What is wrong with you?
22:27This is our whole lives.
22:28Some people would give anything for the right match.
22:31What?
22:34Agnes.
22:37Agnes.
22:38Agnes.
22:48I'm in love.
22:52And it's horrible.
22:57Who?
23:04Garth.
23:06My guardian.
23:10How do you know that you're in love with him?
23:18Anytime I'm near him, I feel hot.
23:21My skin, like my cheeks.
23:24And then my belly.
23:27Have you ever felt that way before?
23:32No.
23:34But I'm happy for you.
23:38He's not even eligible.
23:43Trill, but...
23:45At least you can feel this way once.
23:48Right?
23:50No matter what, that's a blessing.
24:05Agnes Mackenzie, shouldn't you be on your way to class?
24:10Yes, Aunt Lydia.
24:13Can I help you with something?
24:24Yes, Aunt Lydia.
24:26Maybe.
24:28I have a question.
24:29Or a request.
24:31A request?
24:32Very respectfully, Aunt Lydia.
24:34Very.
24:36All right, then.
24:43My guardian, the one who showed bravery on the bus that day when made a...
24:46I am aware.
24:48He's soon to be made a commander.
24:50I thought perhaps you might make him eligible.
24:54This season.
24:56Maybe God protected him for that reason.
25:04I shall think the matter over.
25:08Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
25:11For your graciousness.
25:13Praise be.
25:14Now get to class.
25:15Late girls are difficult girls.
25:18Go in grace.
25:25This is the last day of childhood.
25:27For these girls.
25:30Innocence can be lost.
25:32In so many ways.
26:14They've been a patient.
26:17They're so good.
26:19Fuck you.
26:20They're so good.
26:21They're so good.
26:21I'm not good.
26:21They're so good.
26:21But what do you think?
26:26They're so good.
26:27to do that? Yes. Oh, no, no, no, please, please. I beg of you. I can't. No, no, no, please.
26:46Let me just say this. Those who are not with us are against us. So which is it to be?
26:58No, no, no, no, no.
27:40Please, God, help me.
27:51Help me.
27:53Please.
27:56Help me.
27:58Please.
28:03Please, don't do this.
28:07I can't.
28:12Please.
28:12Help me.
28:19Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're
28:28here.
28:29The sins of these women have found them out.
29:00Whatever my resolve may have been, after some days, I lost track of that plotline.
29:05The plotline of my resolve.
29:09Now, I was following the plotline of my survival.
29:14Please, I don't want to die.
29:17Please, don't. Please, I don't want to die. Please.
29:21Lydia, don't. Please.
29:28By his hands.
30:18Hold has been settled. Only a few open slots left.
30:24Which commanders remain?
30:26I have another one to add to the mix. Garth Chapin.
30:32The Guardian? He's not eligible.
30:35He will be, soon enough.
30:37Yes, and other commanders have been serving Gilead far longer.
30:41As you know, men serve Gilead in myriad ways.
30:57Well, come on now. Spit it out.
31:15I trust you heard the news.
31:18Though he brings grief, he will show compassion.
31:22For he does not willingly bring affliction to anyone.
31:26Praise be his words.
31:40Is it time to reconsider a handmaid?
31:45Isn't your domain any more?
31:47I can still arrange one for you. Between friends, of course.
31:53Not yet.
31:54When you are ready, you know you can count on me.
31:59In so many ways, dear Aunt Lydia.
32:05Your price is above rubies.
32:09Praise be.
32:11Praise be.
32:24Was I a phoenix, rising from the ashes?
32:27Or was I a cockroach?
32:29I wasn't sure anymore.
32:31But I was alive.
32:33Miss Clements.
32:35Miss Clements.
32:35Come in.
32:39We must construct a uniform for our new disciples.
32:44Your new disciples.
32:47Mine.
32:49I thought you might enjoy the privilege of weighing in.
33:09This one.
33:13It's a little rough.
33:16May not be the most comfortable to the touch.
33:19No.
33:20I don't imagine it will be.
33:27My biggest gripe with the old world was the emphasis on comfort, ease, convenience.
33:34We had all become entitled little brats.
33:37We had all become entitled little brats.
33:45We had all become entitled little brats.
34:06For a seedling must fight its way through the dirt to meet the sun.
34:17Hulda.
34:18I made this for you.
34:21Really?
34:22No.
34:22I made it for myself.
34:23For good luck.
34:24But as you wait for your contenders, I thought you might need it.
34:28Just don't worry about all the good luck.
34:32Well, that's me.
34:34I have my first green appointment today with the tailor.
34:36And then send your dad to get my teeth whitened.
34:38Bye.
34:58Blessed day, Miss Agnes.
35:02See you tomorrow.
35:04See ya.
35:19The Lord has challenged us today, hasn't he?
35:22I pray we are worthy of his gifts.
35:24Even if they don't seem like gifts at first.
35:28I know his aunts aren't always generous with praise, but...
35:32It's worth mentioning you have been an exemplary pearl girl.
35:35Today and all the days.
35:37I'm grateful for the chance to serve.
35:40Especially after my previous indiscretions.
35:43It takes time to adjust to the ways of Gilead.
35:45I made mistakes too.
35:48You're not from Gilead?
35:52Where are you from?
35:54Well, we're all on the same earth, dust to dust.
35:58But how did you end up in Gilead?
36:00How did you become an aunt?
36:03Well, dear, you need to have a calling.
36:05I heard mine, and I answered.
36:08I guess you could say I was the original pearl girl.
36:14I'll take it from here.
36:24We've checked all the bloodlines.
36:27Our matches are as clean as a wooden whistle.
36:30Yes, I believe a celebration is in order.
36:36Each season brings its own obstacle, and this season has been particularly stimulating.
36:42May our greens move forward into holy matrimony as God intended.
36:47Blessed be the fruit.
36:50May the Lord open.
36:53May the Lord open.
36:57It is now time to tell the girls' families.
37:02Oh, what delicious news they shall receive.
37:35We have done our best to teach these girls.
37:38To prepare them.
37:41But what they don't know yet is that life is long.
37:45The real brutality is when it asks you to endure.
37:49Knowing what you have done, and what has been done while you stood by.
37:54But what choice do we have?
37:58Enduring is the only way through.
38:03I control the women's side of their enterprise with an iron fist, in a leather glove, in a woolen mitten.
38:11I made a promise to teach these girls to be women.
38:16Women of God.
38:29I made another promise.
38:32After what happened to my girls at Jezebel's, after Boston fell, after the sting of the noose around my neck
38:39began to wear off, I vowed to document everything.
38:42And every one.
38:46Yes, aunts were afforded the special privilege of being allowed to write.
38:51The only women in Gilead who could.
38:54But what was I writing?
38:56Recording the crimes of weak men, and far too many women?
39:01That was not allowed.
39:03That could bring down these men, chosen by God, to lead us.
39:06And what was his name?
39:22Is that a mystery?
39:22No, I believe it was.
39:24It, I believe it was a mystery.
39:35I've heard of a figure.
39:40The corrupt and blood-smeared fingerprints of the past
39:43must be wiped away for the morally pure generation
39:46that is surely about to arrive.
39:50But among these bloody fingerprints
39:52are those made by ourselves,
39:55and they can't be wiped away so easily.
39:58May God protect these girls,
40:02because I'm not sure I can.
