00:00on her adjustment all morning.
00:01Well, she's not ready for public viewing at the moment.
00:03The wives were so dismissive today.
00:06They need to be reminded who they're dealing with.
00:08A proper wedding will remind them.
00:10Okay, we'll need to have our wedding in Boston.
00:12The grand celebration fit for the highest commander,
00:15with all the other commanders and their wives.
00:17She's about to become Queen of Gilead.
00:19Where are you gonna be, June?
00:21At the wedding.
00:22All those handmaids?
00:23One giant group, anonymous?
00:24What's wrong with you?
00:25They don't have any weapons.
00:28We'll get them to the Red Center,
00:29then slip them to the posted handmaids at the wedding.
00:31We will use all of our friends.
00:33Everyone and anyone who hates Gilead.
00:36Anyone who has ever been fucked over by that place.
00:39I've scheduled a meeting for you.
00:42The Department of Human Reallocation
00:45will hear your plan tomorrow.
00:46I'd be missing the warden's wedding.
00:48Small sacrifice.
00:49I don't like leaving the girls before the wedding,
00:51but it can't be helped.
00:53Let the revolution begin.
00:55Dear God, give us the strength
00:57to murder those goddamn motherfuckers.
01:15They wanted us to look like we'd been dipped in blood.
01:18Some fairytale figure in a red cloak.
01:22It seems ridiculous now
01:24to contemplate how important clothes were to us before.
01:30We had closets full of them.
01:33We took jobs we hated so we could buy more of them.
01:37So we could be fashionable.
01:39So we could be on trend.
01:42We couldn't figure out how to get rid of them.
01:46So we threw them in the trash.
01:47We poisoned the water.
01:51We brought on ecological collapse.
01:56All because we believed that these garments
01:58that we put on our bodies told the world who we were.
02:03It was a lie.
02:05A lie Gilead believed too.
02:09So they assigned us color.
02:12And we were the color.
02:14They dictated what we wore.
02:17Who we could be.
02:20They used our clothes to divide us.
02:23To dehumanize us.
02:27But tonight, those clothes will be our weapons.
02:34Tonight, we will be the world.
02:38Tonight, we will be the world.
02:43We will use these clothes to start a war.
03:13They put us in red, the color of blood, to mark us.
03:43They forgot that it's also the color of rage.
07:43They forgot that it's also the color of love.
08:13They forgot that it's also the color of war.
08:30Oh, come.
08:32Let us sing unto the Lord.
08:35For the Lord is a great God and a great King above all gods.
08:40Come.
08:42Let us worship for the Lord, our maker.
08:48Dear Lord, we are gathered here to celebrate a new beginning.
08:56New marriage of the faithful and the just.
09:03In accordance with the divine laws of Gilead,
09:06High Commander Wharton, as you pledge fealty and devotion to your new wife,
09:16so we all renew fealty and devotion to her.
09:21For we honor God when we hold fast to our vows.
09:25But we are no longer two but of one flesh.
09:29What God has joined together, no human being must separate.
09:32Dear God, we ask that you bless this union as you forgive us our sins
09:46and purify us from all unrighteousness and temptations of the will.
09:52We have also fallen short of the glory of God.
09:56All of us are cheap, straight, but in your ultimate wisdom,
10:02you allow us to repent and guide us home as it pleases you, Lord Almighty.
10:09We await.
10:10Plan B. Pass them at their reception.
10:13Please, Lord, make this new union as fruitful as the blessed union
10:20with my own wife and bringing forth my own child.
10:25First and forever.
10:55Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome High Commander and Mrs. Gabrielle Wharton.
12:55Joseph.
13:06Serena.
13:07Why are you so nervous?
13:09Nervous?
13:10Why would I be nervous?
13:13Well, despite all this pomp and circumstance, I have not abandoned our goals.
13:17I'm as committed to our forms as ever.
13:20All the more power to you, Serena.
13:23Not just power for me, Joseph.
13:26Power for all the women in Gilead.
13:29Glory be.
13:31Now excuse me while I go visit my most important guests.
13:43You know, your handmaid, my handmaid now.
13:46You know, my dad, he's got the best handmaid in the whole country.
13:51Just one ceremony.
13:52Bam.
13:53Twins every time.
13:57Shit.
13:57Serena's heading over.
13:59Goddamn it.
14:00Handmaids, gather, please.
14:02I'd like to speak with all of you, if I may.
14:04Girls, gather quickly for this work.
14:09Get in the back.
14:10Get in the back.
14:26It is so meaningful to me to have all of you here.
14:31I am painfully aware how little gratitude we show you for your sacred service.
14:38But change is coming.
14:40I am making it my personal goal.
14:43Wonderful.
14:45Girls, say thank you, Mrs. Wharton.
14:46Thank you, Mrs. Wharton.
14:48Thank you so much.
14:54You know, I had a handmaid myself once.
15:00And I could have been kinder to her.
15:04To be honest, she could have been kinder to me.
15:07We both said and did unforgivable things to one another.
15:11But that made us equal in vengeance and in spite.
15:15And now I can count her as a good friend.
15:18And although it has been a challenge to repair our relationship,
15:23I do believe that my former handmaid forgives me.
15:29Mrs. Wharton, Rita.
15:31Mrs. Wharton, Rita.
15:33Rita, I was just speaking about forgiveness and the importance of moving on.
15:39Perhaps you might share how you have done it.
15:42Oh, well, you set a goal and you work towards it.
15:50Keep your eyes on the prize, ladies.
15:53Yes, excellent.
15:56I do wish that I could see all of your faces.
15:59Forgive me for interrupting, Serena, but it's time.
16:02Oh, it's not too early.
16:04No, no, no, now's perfect.
16:06All right.
16:09I will be back for our group portrait.
16:11I want all of you unveiled for it.
16:13I would like to celebrate each and every one of you as individuals.
16:17May God bless you.
16:18May God keep you.
16:20Praise be.
16:22May the Lord open.
16:24Just this way.
17:01How long is it going to take?
17:05One to two hours.
17:06They'll go home and they'll fall fast asleep.
17:09And then we're on.
17:11Blessed be the posted handmaids.
17:26This is delicious.
17:28I had my fill, but...
17:28Oh, no, thank you.
17:29Go ahead, you should have some more.
17:31I think I should.
17:31I think I've had enough.
17:32No, no, no, you deserve it.
17:34You eat like a bird.
17:48Get them back to the Red Center.
17:50I'll go with the posted handmaids.
17:52And be careful.
17:56You be careful.
17:58Make sure he's passed out.
17:59Don't worry.
18:01Get them ready.
18:02Blessed be the fruit dears.
18:04May the Lord open.
18:06It's time for our blessed farewell.
18:08Chop, chop.
18:09My girls, back to the Red Center.
18:11The rest to your households.
18:20Pretty lines, girls.
18:21Quick as mice now.
18:29We'll meet you in the Red Center.
18:31Godspeed.
18:32Take care of them.
18:38Lydia, how wonderful to see you before we head out.
18:41Mrs. Wharton, you look beautiful.
18:44I'll make sure to arrange a plate for you.
18:46I hear it's delicious.
18:47Although, of course, we haven't had a minute to enjoy it ourselves.
18:52Please enjoy.
18:53Praise be.
18:53Praise be.
19:01June?
19:03June?
19:06June?
19:12June?
19:19June?
19:22Praise be it, Lydia.
19:24Hey, Lydia.
19:26I'm so glad you could make it.
19:32Lydia?
19:34You failed on my meetings.
20:01I think June Osborne is here.
20:05You're losing it, lady.
20:07June Osborne is in Alaska.
20:11Alaska?
20:12Commander Lawrence, please.
20:15Aunt Lydia has had a long day and night of travel.
20:18We have to get you a seat before you pass out.
20:21Get her a piece of fruit.
20:22She's hallucinating.
20:26Hi, excuse me.
20:27Can you take Aunt Lydia and get her a big steak and a glass of red wine
20:30and for dessert, some cake?
20:33Thank you so much.
20:34Sweet.
20:59Welcome home.
21:01Mrs. Wharton.
21:06Gift from Commander Bell Sr. is in the parlor.
21:10I think I know what it is.
21:15Wait.
21:18Oh, yes.
21:20I've been wanting to do this.
21:24Welcome to your new home.
21:31What do you think?
21:32It's perfect.
21:49Please.
21:53Bless me, the fruit.
21:54May the Lord open.
21:56I'm Commander Wharton.
21:57Praise be to you.
21:58May God make you happy.
22:00May God make me truly worthy.
22:03This is a great honor.
22:04I'm told she's the most fertile handmaid in Gilead.
22:09But I'm fertile.
22:12Yes, of course, God willing.
22:15And we'll try.
22:16But you're only one person, my love.
22:18No.
22:21No, I will not have a handmaid in our house.
22:30We've talked about having a big family.
22:33Now, of Gabriel.
22:34Don't call her that.
22:36That is her name.
22:37No, it's not.
22:40She will help us fulfill our duty to God,
22:44to bear fruit and multiplies our sacred vessel.
22:46She's not a vessel.
22:47She's a human being.
22:50What is her name?
22:51Of Gabriel, ma'am.
22:52No.
22:54What is her real name?
23:02Christina.
23:03Christina.
23:07Christina.
23:11Christina.
23:14No.
23:15No.
23:16No.
23:18No.
23:19Leave this house.
23:21Run.
23:23And don't ever come back.
23:25Gabriel, please.
23:27Go to your room.
23:38What is wrong with you?
23:39I was so stupid to do this again.
23:42Serena.
23:43I was wrong about you.
23:44I thought you were a better man.
23:46But you're just like the rest of them!
23:48Enough!
23:58I have continually indulged you.
24:03Compromised, accommodated.
24:06I have made radical changes to my life.
24:09I have bent to your liberal attitudes.
24:13But I will not turn my back on God.
24:19You think God wants this abomination of a marriage?
24:26You have deceived me.
24:28Serena!
24:42I think he wants you.
24:50I can't stay here.
24:52You have gone insane.
24:54Stop!
24:59I forbid you to go.
25:11Let me out.
25:14No.
25:17You are my wife now.
25:21Your place is in this house.
25:25You have nowhere to go.
25:27You are under my...
25:31Under your what?
25:36Under your what?
25:39Your rule?
25:41What are you going to do?
25:43Cut off my finger?
25:45Beat me with a belt?
25:47Because all of that, all of it has happened to me before.
25:50And I will survive it.
25:52And I will survive you.
25:57I'm not something to survive.
26:03I am a good man.
26:07And a good husband.
26:09You can't be.
26:13You're a commander.
26:23Step aside, Harry.
26:27Mrs. Warden would like to leave.
26:57Sir, who was there?
26:59Ma'am?
27:01Who sat there?
27:03The handmaids, ma'am.
27:05Sir, who was there?
27:07Ma'am?
27:09Who sat there?
27:11The handmaids, ma'am.
27:35Sir, who was there?
27:37Ma'am?
28:05To be continued...
28:35To be continued...
29:05To be continued...
29:35To be continued...
30:01Hi, Lydia.
30:03Are you feeling better?
30:05Are the girls all right?
30:07Of course, they're all tucked in, safe and sound.
30:10I made some cookies using your recipe.
30:13Come to the kitchen, I'll show you.
30:14I must check on the girls.
30:16Something's going on.
30:34And Lydia.
30:36Blessed evening.
30:37How was the wedding?
30:39Unlock this door.
30:41Open it.
30:47Oh, for goodness sakes.
30:50My apologies, ma'am.
30:54Okay.
30:55Open it.
30:57Peter.
30:59Open it.
31:01Peter, stay alert.
31:03Yes, ma'am.
31:05For goodness sakes.
31:31For goodness sakes.
31:41They've been in bed for over an hour, Aunt Lydia.
32:01For goodness sakes.
32:31For goodness sakes.
33:01For goodness sakes.
33:03For goodness sakes.
33:32BELL RINGS
33:39Bell.
33:42What?
33:44Repeat yourself.
33:54Jean Osborne.
33:56Nice to meet you.
34:26Oh, no.
34:56Ah.
35:27June?
35:36Hi.
35:38Hi.
35:45Thanks.
35:51Hi.
35:53Hi.
35:55Hi.
36:01Oh, Lord, God of vengeance.
36:04God of vengeance, appear.
36:06Rise up, judge of the earth,
36:08and render punishment to the proud.
36:11Do you think the Lord does not know what you do?
36:15He who made the ear shall he not hear?
36:18He who formed the eye shall he not see?
36:21And he who knows all shall he not punish the wicked?
36:29Peter.
36:32No. Lydia.
36:34You liar.
36:36What are you up to?
36:38Why are they still in their clothes?
36:40Why did they hide their cake?
36:42Aunt Lydia.
36:45Get the fuck away from her.
36:52Who are you?
36:55You don't remember me.
37:00What is your name?
37:03Why do you care?
37:05Why do you care when you stole it from me?
37:15My name...
37:17is Moira.
37:22You fucking bitch.
37:25You're working with her.
37:27Who?
37:28I was right. She's back.
37:30I know she's back.
37:32Where is she?
37:34I don't know who you're talking about.
37:36Where is she?
37:39I will not hesitate to shoot a traitor.
37:42Tell me, where is June Osborne?
37:47I'm right here.
37:52I knew it.
37:54I knew it.
37:56You did this.
37:58No, Aunt Lydia.
38:02You did it.
38:05You...
38:07trained us to be like this.
38:10After you beat us and...
38:13after you mutilated us, after you tortured us.
38:18After you took our children away.
38:24You did this.
38:27But I think...
38:30that you've seen things that you can't unsee.
38:35And I think that you've learned things that you can't unlearn.
38:41And I know...
38:43that in your heart of hearts...
38:47you know that rape is rape.
38:51And you know it wasn't our fault.
38:54And we don't deserve this.
38:57And we're not fallen women.
39:04We're rising up because...
39:06in each and every one of us...
39:09is this immaculate soul...
39:13that was given to us by God.
39:18That's just...
39:20crying out...
39:23for dignity...
39:26and freedom.
39:28Do not presume to know what is in my heart...
39:31or God's.
39:33Or God's.
39:37Yeah. No, you're right.
39:42I won't.
39:47But I would like you to ask yourself...
39:52Lydia...
39:54if you think that...
39:58God wants this for us...
40:03for your girls.
40:06If God would...
40:09allow all of this.
40:13Or...
40:17is there a God...
40:20that would empower...
40:23a woman like you...
40:26to stand up for us?
40:33To arc toward the light?
40:36And to finally declare...
40:42Enough.
40:44Because we...
40:48all of us...
40:50together...
40:58we've had enough.
41:04Oh.
41:09He hurt me, Aunt Lydia.
41:13They hurt us.
41:18They raped us.
41:22You...
41:24gave us to them.
41:28I only ever meant to...
41:31save my girls.
41:33If you want to save us...
41:36let us go.
41:41Please, Aunt Lydia.
41:47Mama.
42:00Mama.
42:30Mama.
42:45I'm sorry he...
42:47hurt you, dear.
42:51Mama.
42:55Come.
42:57Come on. Let's go.
42:59Come here.
43:10Come on. Come on.
43:18Come.
43:29Come.
43:59Oh, God, help me.
44:03God, help me.
44:06Oh, God, help me.
44:08Oh, God, help me.
44:10Oh, God, help me.
44:12Oh, God, help me.
44:14Oh, God, help me.
44:16Oh, God, help me.
44:30We took the clothes they used to enslave us.
44:33To liberate us.
44:36Who were we under those clothes?
44:39Who could we be?
44:41Who had they prevented us from being?
44:45Mothers and daughters.
44:47Readers and writers.
44:49Professionals.
44:51Friends.
44:54We were angry.
44:56We were exhilarated.
44:58We were ready for a new beginning.
45:01The dress became our uniform.
45:05And we became an army.
45:28An army, too.
