[JUNE] Previously on
The Handmaid's Tale...

[NICK] It's better if she
doesn't know I was here.

You are one of the worst
people I have ever known.

Where are you taking her? I
will call Commander Lawrence!

- [EYE] Commander Lawrence gave the order.
- Janine!

It's encrypted.

If you can't pick up when
I call, try me back ASAP.

We need the schedule of Gilead
patrols in the marked areas.

[LAWRENCE] Keep your
eye on New Bethlehem.

We're drowning in applications.

I have a question for you. Where
does Mrs. Waterford fit into this?

- Serena?
- You made her our global ambassador.

I would think you would want her here

for the diplomatic visits at the least.

[LAWRENCE] I need Serena Joy Waterford.

New Bethlehem is not the Gilead
you remember. It's kinder.

And you would be the face of progress.

[SERENA] God has a plan for
me. The world is broken.

I am being called to heal it.

I'm not gonna sit here and
wait. They still got my daughter!

Mayday is doing something.

They want to identify the
Commanders who shot our planes down

- and kept you from Hannah.
- I'm in.

[JUNE] Luke and Moira are
stuck in No Man's Land.

- Well, what are you doing?
- I'm gonna help get them back.

There has to be another way!

[JUNE] The only way is
to show up and to fight!

Let's bring them home.

[MARK] June.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

June? We need to go.

And how long have they
been trapped there?

Four days.

They have rations. Hopefully,
they found more things to eat.

What, like, a Costco in No Man's
Land? How could you let them do this?

It's Mayday's operation.
I'm just trying to help out.

Come on. The military is funding Mayday,

and you're using civilians
for your dirty work.

They're volunteers. They know what
they're getting themselves into.

Which is what, exactly?

Mayday's working on a plan
to kill extremist Commanders.

The most militant, who
shot our planes down?

Mayday needs to confirm who they are

and determine when and where
they'll be most vulnerable.

So why Luke and Moira? Why them?

They insisted on going, June.

[EXHALES]

It's a simple assignment.

Pick up a bag, wait for the ride home.

When those patrols
showed up unexpectedly,

they got in the middle of our pickup.

[JUNE] Why isn't Nick
responding to your calls?

[MARK] Today's a big day for him.

He is hosting foreign
dignitaries in New Bethlehem.

[JUNE] New Bethlehem?

So Lawrence made that happen?

He even found Serena.

Brought her back to help sell the place.

Serena?

Is she, uh...

so she's... she's... so she's okay?

Is Noah okay?

Both fine, apparently.

Treated like royalty.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

It's not surprising.

She always comes out on top.

What makes you think Nick will show up?

He will. For you.

[LAWRENCE] The foreign
dignitaries all arrived.

Hopefully, our vision for
Gilead already feels...

less terrifying.

[NICK] Well, it
shouldn't be a hard sell.

Other countries are dying
to get rid of our refugees.

Well, sending your people to a country

that routinely slaughters
its own citizens

isn't a good look for them.

We need to show these diplomats
we're as safe as Disneyland.

You want me to sing "Circle of Life"?

I want you to dress up like
Donald Duck if you have to.

Today's the day, Nick.

We gotta make this happen.

You're like the mayor of this place.

So, whatever it takes.

- [DOORBELL RINGS]
- Oh, God.

I hate managing people.

Now I'm off to Serena.

Ah! Herr Strauss. Guten Tag.

Commander Lawrence, good morning.

Nick, uh... I want you to meet
the Supervisor of New Bethlehem,

Commander Blaine.

Nick, we are honored that Germany

has sent us their
smartest foreign deputy.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
Just a mere assistant deputy.

Well, you two get acquainted.

I have to pick up a plant.

Don't be late for the tour.
Auf Wiedersehen.

Pardon my intrusion, Commander.

I have been looking
forward to meeting with you.

I am so eager to hear what you
have planned for this place.

Any questions, I'm happy to answer.

No, no, no. No. [CHUCKLES]

No, no questions. Just a... a message.

June Osborn is at Mile Marker 17.

[FOOTSTEPS, DOOR OPENING]

[BIRDS CALLING]

[DOOR CLOSING]

[BIRDS CALLING]

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

[CAR DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

I'm okay.

She's safe.

She's in Alaska with...
with my mom, Nick.

She's with Holly.

- With your mom?
- Yeah.

What's going on? What happened?

Uh...

Luke and Moira, they... they
were working with Mayday,

and they've gotten stuck behind
Gilead patrols in No Man's Land.

That's dangerous. Why
would they do that?

Because I wasn't there to stop them.

And now they're in some
waterpark in Ronson in Zone Seven,

and there's some event
today in New Bethlehem.

So, I need you to clear a
path, Nick, so that we can...

Which means extra
security, which means...

I can't move those patrols.

- [SIGHS]
- It's too suspicious.

I want to help, I do. I just...

Mark's gotta think of something else.

There isn't anything else.

So, um... 'cause he
can't send in the military

and risk a confrontation,

and Mayday can't go in
because of the Gilead patrols.

So there isn't anything else.

I don't... um...

[JUNE SIGHS]

It's fine. No, it's fine. I get
it. I get it's dangerous. I get it.

I'll talk to Mark. I'm gonna
have to drive in myself.

- You can't do that.
- But I can't waste any more time

because I don't know
what's gonna happen to them.

I'll go.

[SIGHS] Really?

I'll bring 'em back.

Okay.

Thank you.

Wait, what are you doing?
Where are you going?

- I'll go with you.
- No, no, no. You gotta stay here.

You can't come with me.

In the back.

In the back. And keep your head down.

[JUNE] I will!

[SEAGULLS SQUAWKING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

- [DOOR OPENS]
- [LAWRENCE] Blessed day. Hello, hello!

[CLEARS THROAT] Naomi told
me I should bring you a plant.

Thank you.

So, are you ready to charm
a dozen skeptical diplomats?

And what makes you so certain
that we can remake this country?

You do, Serena.

The fact that I got you back here.

Our global ambassador,
Serena Joy Waterford?

The only striking Viking on
the planet with an IQ to match?

I know why you chose me.

I need to know that God chose you.

Oh, Jesus.

"And when I surveyed all that I
had done and toiled to achieve,

everything was meaningless,

a chasing after the wind,
nothing was gained under the sun."

Well, I'm sorry to hear that.

Ecclesiastes 2:11?

Right. Right.

[EXHALES HEAVILY]

Have you ever gotten down on your
knees and prayed in your life?

Sure.

Okay. Pray with me.

- Really? Now?
- Yes.

I know that I can bring God here.

But I don't feel God in you.

Not... entirely.

All right.

Uh... [GRUNTS]

Dear God, we know things work out

for them that love God

and are called to His purpose.

Those He called, He justifies.

That was my prayer from last night.

Yeah, I memorized it.

[SCOFFS]

- Serena, if there is a God...
- If?

It's not in empty
words and weird rituals.

And He's definitely
not taking attendance.

Then why are you here?

What is driving you, if it isn't God?

Could be God.

Could be my dead wife.

Could be my guilty conscience.

Well, then, isn't that God?
Isn't God working through you?

Sure. You can't prove
it, I can't disprove it,

and as they wrote in The Book of Mormon,

that's kind of what God
was going for, right?

The Book of Mormon?

The musical.

Who are you?

I mean, tell me I'm not
crazy for being here with you.

I can't do that, Serena. You
are crazy. We're both crazy.

We broke this country,
and now we have to fix it.

And I have this insane
idea, you can call it faith.

I believe that you and
I can get this done.

And you believe it too, in your way,

that God called you
back here to help me.

And, boy, do I need your help,
in case you haven't noticed.

So, in the name of God, Serena,

don't make me get
down on my knees again.

Let's make this happen.
Let's do it together.

"Then you will call,
and the Lord will answer,

and you will cry for help, and
He will say... 'Here I am.'"

Praise the Lord.

For the record, I... I wasn't crying.

You're crying right now. On the inside.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[LOCK THUDS]

Aunt Lydia.

Aunt Miriam.

I didn't think you'd come.

Well, I received your message.
I have to see for myself.

Of course.

[LIGHT FIXTURE BUZZING AND CLINKING]

Marthas' faces are covered here?

So as not to tempt the patrons.

[AUNT LYDIA] Janine.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Oh, you must be cold, dear.

- [WOMAN CLEARS THROAT]
- Okay. What are you doing here?

I came as soon as I found out.

- Well, you should leave.
- I will not.

I will get you out of
this terrible place!

Don't! Don't do anything. Please.

Every time you try to help, you
only end up making things worse.

But you're my special girl, Janine.

Are you all right?

Yes, yes.

Hey. I know you.

And your cute little hat.

Mean old witch.

[GASPS]

I beg your pardon?

- Lydia. That's Ofjason.
- [STUTTERS]

Of...

And, um, there's... there's Ofgeorge.

And that's...

that right there, that's Ofkyle.

You told all of us we were special.

- These are all my girls?
- Just the four of us.

But we were the lucky ones.

Most Handmaids end up in The Colonies.

But you shouldn't be
here. You all bore fruit.

I was told you'd be
rewarded for your service.

Yeah, well, surprise: they lied to you.

[GASPS SOFTLY]

Let us pray, girls.

Let us pray for the Lord
to reveal Himself to us.

- [WOMAN] Will you shut the fuck up!
- You can save your prayers.

[LAUGHS BITTERLY] Look at
us. There's no God here.

God is everywhere. Especially
in the darkest of places.

Kitty? Commander Bell is expecting you.

Wha... wait.

Together we can think of something.

You really wanna help?

Of course, dear. Always.

Forget me.

[LAWRENCE] Gilead is evolving.

We've made tremendous
progress here in New Bethlehem.

We have successfully reformed
a conservative theocracy.

It's something many nations
have tried and failed,

but here, we have liberalized
without spilling a drop of blood.

This is a safe, peaceful
community with excellent schools...

[WHARTON] Mrs. Waterford.

Commander Wharton.

How have you been?

God has seen you suffer through
many changes since I saw you last.

And yet God has granted me relief

and preserved me in peace.

Indeed.

And yet you look no worse for the wear.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

We are blessed by your return.

The Lord blesses and
keeps us all, Commander.

Any Guardians, let me handle it.

So, don't sing "God Bless
America" or quote the Constitution.

Maybe just keep a low profile.

That's hard for me sometimes.

I remember.

[WATERSLIDE CREAKING]

[JUNE] They're supposed
to be at the gift shop,

but at this point
they could be anywhere.

Why is this their pickup
spot, of all places?

It's been closed a long
time It's always empty.

Come on.

Okay. Let's go.

I don't know how you're doing it,

being a Commander and
working with the Americans.

Playing both sides.

What made you change your mind?

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

Shit.

I heard you got hurt.

Hit by that truck. So...

I came to see you.

At the hospital.

You were there?

Is that why you agreed
to spy for the Americans?

To see me?

I had to.

I had to see you.

We should go.

It's not safe.

- [CHILDREN LAUGHING]
- [INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Where is my son-in-law?

Uh, I don't know, but he seems to
be doing quite well without him.

[LAWRENCE] ... distribution
of their products.

So with freer movement of goods
and people across the border,

we are, if you will,
the Dubai of the West.

Less of a prison, you mean?

Your refugees put an
unmanageable burden on Canada.

And yet, we cannot in good
conscience send them back

when you're still mutilating
and murdering your own people.

I can promise you

there will be no human
rights violations here.

But how can we trust you,
especially when it comes to women?

To be honest, I shared your concerns.

And, uh, I am,
unfortunately, proof of them.

When Gilead clamped
down in force, I, uh...

I lost everything.

I lost my identity, my voice.

I did terrible things
because I felt powerless.

And so I exerted power
over those around me.

I will spend the rest of my
days trying to atone for that,

and I do ask for forgiveness every day

from those that I hurt.

And I'm not even certain
if God will forgive me,

but I do know that God
has guided me back here

to give me a chance to try.

In New Bethlehem, women
can read and write and work.

I would not have come back
if that were not the case.

And, also, my son would not exist

if it were not for the
measures that Gilead had taken.

Gilead cleaned the
water, we cleaned the air.

Our women are getting pregnant,
and our children are thriving!

And that is not something
that any of you can say

on behalf of your countries.

We all need... the world...

the world needs New Bethlehem to
work and to grow and to thrive.

[BABY COOING]

And who is this little man?

This is Noah. The sun of my life.

Oh, that sweet face. Do
you mind if I hold him?

- Please?
- Yes. Of course.

Hello!

[SERENA] The birthrate in
Gilead doubled this year alone,

far outstripping the
birthrates of almost

every other developed country.

And this is Mrs. Rose Blaine.

Who we are very proud to
say is five months along.

[ALL GASP]

Oh my goodness, congratulations!

Do you mind if I...

Please, go ahead.

- [FEMALE DELEGATE] Boy or a girl?
- A boy.

Proof of concept, ladies and gentlemen.

One baby here, another on the way.

All the good of Gilead
with none of the bad.

This is the promise of New Bethlehem.

What do you think, Louise?

If you can guarantee their safety,

we could begin to suggest voluntary
repatriation of the refugees

pending international
monitoring by the UN.

Louise, I'm sorry.

You're going to have
to give that baby back.

- [LOUISE] Aw. Sweet boy.
- Shall we?

Here's Momma.

[BABBLING]

Mrs. Waterford, you are
a remarkable salesperson.

Oh, thank you.

To be honest, I didn't
expect to get so personal.

Oh, well, I... I found it thrilling.

Truly. I can't remember the
last time I've been that moved.

I suppose you missed my book tour.

And, I assure you, I am
all the poorer for it.

[HELICOPTER WHIRRING]

I need to get you out of this park.

What? No. The gift shop, we're so close.

- It's just, I think it...
- What if they're not there?

This place is huge. You want
me to search every building,

- every ride?
- Yes!

Do you know how much danger
you're in by being here?

They could get killed! I don't
give a fuck what happens to me!

Hey! You're the only reason I'm here!

I'm already in trouble at home.

If I even think about you,
Rose can smell it on me.

Yeah, you're right, you're
right. You should go back.

And, what, leave you here?

You have a wife, and you
have a... you have a baby.

You have a whole life.

Do I? 'Cause I'm not so sure
I do when I'm around you.

I'm sorry.

I've risked everything, everything
I have, to save your husband.

'Cause you chose him. You chose Luke.

He waited for me.

He waited.

I had you.

I loved you.

He waited for me, Nick. For years.

"Loved me."

"Love."

Do you even know what it's
like to be in love with you?

I imagine... it must be hellish.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

I can't lose them. I can't.

They're a part of me, and I just...

I can't lose them.

That's how I feel about you.

I only feel that way about you.

And I've lost you over and over again.

I'm here.

I'm here.

They won't make it, Nick.

They won't.

Okay.

Okay.

[MOIRA] God damn!

God damn motherfuck, don't they leave?

Mayday's never gonna come.
They fucking abandoned us.

Bell.

- [MOIRA] Luke!
- Calhoun.

Luke, you even listening to me?

What are you doing over there, man?

The Commander roll-call again?

Bell. Calhoun. Dupar...

- Stop.
- Calhoun.

Stop.

We've got all the names, all right?

Stop obsessing.

I just can't wait for our guys
to blow their fucking heads off.

Well, let's blow this joint first

'cause all we've got is a protein bar

and a bag of fuckin' carrots left.

I should've never let you come with me.

What? You can't "let"
me do anything, Luke.

And you should've
stayed back in Toronto.

To do what? To... to wait for
my hearing like a good boy?

Is that it, huh? To end up in prison?

No. Fuck that. Fuck that! I can't...

What? You can't what?

I can't fuck this up! I'm
not gonna fuck this up.

You didn't fuck anything up.

The patrols showed up out
of nowhere. You know that.

Yeah, but all June is gonna hear,
right? What's June gonna hear?

She's just gonna hear that
I failed, right? Right?

[EXHALES HEAVILY]

Hey.

You don't have to prove yourself.

- You are the best man I know.
- [SCOFFS]

I mean it.

She better damn well know that.

I just want to get my daughter back.

- That's it. I don't give a...
- I know...

[SHUTTER OPENING]

Go, go, go!

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

- [DOOR OPENS]
- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

[JUNE] Luke?

Moira?

Oh my God.

June?

Oh my... Oh my God.

- Okay. Oh, you're...
- Why are you here?

You're okay. You're okay.

Come here. Oh, come
here. What did you do?

God, you're so fucking stupid.
Why did you do that? Huh?

I called Mark. I was fucking worried.

That's not Mark.

- Hey.
- Hey.

It's Nick.

Wow. Nick.

What's up, man?

Hey. We should, uh...
we should get outta here.

Come on, we gotta go.
We have to get out.

Come on. We gotta go.

Come on.

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

- [SIREN CHIRPS]
- [GUARDIAN 1 ON SPEAKER] Stop right there.

- Jesus.
- Stop.

Okay. Get in the car. Get in the car!

Hey.

Come here.

Go on. Go on. Go.

Blessed day.

Commander Blaine. Blessed day, sir.

Sir. We'll call this in to dispatch?

Uh, don't worry about it.
I've got it taken care of.

Good job, though.

But we have to record any
incident of rebel activity, sir.

It's protocol.

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

- [GUNSHOTS]
- [GASPS]

[GASPING]

Come on.

We gotta escape. Get in the car.

Get in the car.

Come on.

Serena has, as they
used to say, gone viral.

All the diplomats are on board, and
Baby Noah's going on the payroll.

[CHUCKLES]

I expect we'll soon be overrun

by families desperate to reunite.

Well, then, we'll just have to expand.

We're blessed to have dozens of places

that would make perfect
New Bethlehems of their own.

Well, let's not get ahead
of ourselves just yet.

I don't know how ready this country is

for one more New Bethlehem,

let alone a bigger one.

Well, bigger is always better, right?

[CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Isn't... That's the saying.

If there is a demand from
our brethren to return home,

don't we have an obligation to meet it?

I think we do.

And, uh, wouldn't we as a nation
emerge better and stronger for it?

I think we will.

We'll keep the conversation going.

You have already
accomplished so much today.

Now, be proud.

- To new beginnings.
- Mm.

New beginnings.

Rose, I thought you said
Nick would be here by now.

He should be.

That's, uh, my fault.

I sent him to deal with an
issue along the trade route.

Is it serious?

No, no, no. No, not at all.

Just serious enough to
require his attention.

[BABY FUSSING]

Well, uh, it is Noah's bedtime.

Commander, would you
mind walking us home?

I would love to bend
your ear a little more

about New Bethlehem's blessed potential.

Ah, well, I can't promise
that you'll change my mind,

but I will certainly
enjoy letting you try.

[SERENA LAUGHS] I do love a challenge.

Enjoy.

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

[LAWRENCE] Ice cream sundaes,
please! We are celebrating.

Commander, pray forgive me. I'm
here on a matter of grave importance.

[NAOMI EXHALES IN EXASPERATION]

Pray you make an
appointment with my office.

I'm afraid it's quite urgent.

It has come to my attention
that Ofjoseph... Janine...

Ugh, dear Lord. No, not this again.

She will apologize to you
properly, Mrs. Lawrence.

If she misbehaves in any way,

I will make myself
available for corrections.

No matter the severity.

- Well, that's tempting.
- No.

We gave her a chance.

Might you find it in
your heart to reconsider.

She's a rude, vulgar,
ungrateful little bitch,

and we're done with her.

[FOOTSTEPS RECEDING]

[STAMMERS]

You okay? I heard you
weren't feeling well.

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Newly diagnosed condition?

Oh, no. I'm fine.

Good. Well... thanks for stopping by.

Commander, please.

Perhaps there's no place for her here,

but to leave Janine to ruin
in that den of depravity...

my other girls, too.

It's unconscionable!
I will not allow it!

Look. At least it's not The Colonies.

They'll have a chance of staying alive.

What kind of life is that?

Why could they not become
Econowomen in their retirement?

Because they would never accept

a stained ex-Handmaid in that community.

Stained?

My girls provided a sacred service!

Janine brought forth a
beautiful child! Your child!

Surely you and Mrs. Lawrence could
at least advocate on her behalf!

You heard Mrs. Lawrence.
It's not happening.

She's an old-school Gilead
wife. She's not Serena Waterford.

- Mrs. Waterford?
- Yeah, yeah. Did you hear?

She's back. She's in New Bethlehem.

And she's quite evolved, I must say.

Shockingly progressive.

Janine's gone, Aunt Lydia.

She was gone the moment
you got your hands on her.

You know that.

Do yourself a favor. Move on.

Blessed evening, Commander.

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

[MOIRA SIGHS] Um...

well, it was good to meet you, finally.

- You too.
- [LUKE] Yeah.

Welcome back.

Thank you, bro. Like...

- [MOIRA] Bet you were worried about us.
- [MARK] Oh.

Sorry you were in that situation.

And very relieved you made it.

We gotta go.

- [MOIRA] Yeah. Okay.
- [LUKE] Okay.

- Uh, thank you for tonight.
- Thank you.

But don't go dark on me again.

Hey, you, um, you
reached out, he responded.

Because you were here,
and now you're leaving.

I've got a High Commander
living in my house.

I can't do everything you want me to do.

Just honor our agreement
or I'll expose you.

No, you won't.

I'm no use to you if I'm dead.

Nick, what are you going
to do about those Guardians?

I'll take care of it.
Just get back home to her.

- I will.
- Stay safe?

- You too.
- Make a good life for yourself.

Come on, stop it.

[CHUCKLES] Stop what?

Just stop it. Do you realize
that we always do this?

- Do what?
- The whole goodbye thing?

Come on, who are we kidding?

Okay. So what... what
should we say instead?

How 'bout, "See you later"?

Okay.

See you later.

See you later.

[LUKE] I should have told you

that I was here working with Mayday.

I'm gonna deliver my bombs
to the locations I picked.

[JUNE] You don't know what you're doing,

and you will not survive.

This is my chance to fight for Hannah.

That was an alarming
breach of security, son.

No eyewitnesses, one victim dead,

the other's in a coma.

[WHARTON] He's slowly
regaining consciousness.

He could identify who
committed this brazen act.

[NAOMI] They're gonna
expect things from you now.

I can handle whatever the
brain trust throws at me.

[MOIRA] June, wait.

[TIRES SQUEAL]

June.

I need you to get us out of here.

[JANINE] I don't need your help.

I am trying to give you a way out.

There is no way out.

Are you sure you're ready to go back?

Hell yeah.

We're gonna see this through to the end.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[JOSEPH] Serena clawed
her way back into power.

She's about to become queen of Gilead.

[SERENA] I really do believe
that God brought me back here

to change the country.

Let's change it together.

[NICK] Sometimes I think

you're the only good thing in my life.

June Osborne, you did this.
