1
00:00:01,001 --> 00:00:02,711
Blessed day, Aunt Lydia.
2
00:00:02,794 --> 00:00:04,713
[Aunt Lydia]
Previously, on The Testaments…
3
00:00:04,838 --> 00:00:07,299
Do you know why this statue was erected?
4
00:00:07,382 --> 00:00:09,843
- So you can always be watching over us.
- Yes.
5
00:00:10,469 --> 00:00:13,305
We inspire the world
with our good works, Agnes.
6
00:00:13,388 --> 00:00:15,807
- Can you feel the baby kicking yet?
- No. I can't wait.
7
00:00:15,891 --> 00:00:17,267
You're so much further along
than last time.
8
00:00:17,351 --> 00:00:18,352
Hulda!
9
00:00:18,435 --> 00:00:21,480
[Commander Judd] Your work
with these girls is truly a triumph.
10
00:00:21,563 --> 00:00:23,315
They're magnificent!
11
00:00:23,398 --> 00:00:26,068
[Aunt Estee] Somewhere out there
is your future husband.
12
00:00:26,151 --> 00:00:27,444
Tonight, you will meet him.
13
00:00:27,527 --> 00:00:29,655
Excuse me, Miss MacKenzie.
I'm being called away.
14
00:00:29,738 --> 00:00:31,448
You could take my place
with the young lady.
15
00:00:31,531 --> 00:00:32,908
[Agnes MacKenzie]
Garth was becoming a Commander.
16
00:00:32,991 --> 00:00:35,661
And if he were a Commander,
he could be mine.
17
00:00:35,744 --> 00:00:38,789
Do not let them get my girls drunk.
18
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:39,998
I'll have a word with them.
19
00:00:40,082 --> 00:00:41,833
Why don't we get a refreshment?
20
00:00:42,584 --> 00:00:43,961
Shu, I think I'm gonna be sick.
21
00:00:44,044 --> 00:00:46,421
- She's drunk!
- Shh!
22
00:00:46,505 --> 00:00:49,883
It's a shame a girl
with such promise threw it all away.
23
00:00:50,801 --> 00:00:54,179
As He blessed Ruth and Leah,
He has blessed me the same.
24
00:00:54,263 --> 00:00:56,640
By His hand, may He make me fruitful.
25
00:00:56,723 --> 00:00:58,684
- [Aunt Vidala] Praise be.
- [girl] Congratulations.
26
00:00:58,767 --> 00:01:01,395
I trust your expectations were met?
27
00:01:01,478 --> 00:01:05,399
Hardly. I saw more than one girl
plied with drinks.
28
00:01:05,941 --> 00:01:06,984
You failed.
29
00:01:07,067 --> 00:01:09,695
- How was I supposed…
- You still have much to prove.
30
00:01:10,612 --> 00:01:13,156
Oh, Aunt Vidala?
I think maybe the time's come
31
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,617
for you and I to discuss
our vision for the future.
32
00:01:15,701 --> 00:01:17,744
[indistinct chatter]
33
00:01:20,455 --> 00:01:22,040
Excuse me, Commander.
34

- [birdsong]
- [bell tolling]
35

[* soft, solemn music playing]
38
00:01:54,197 --> 00:01:57,909
[Aunt Lydia] In my own present day,
I am an object of curiosity.
39
00:01:59,411 --> 00:02:02,372
Not to the world outside of Gilead.
40
00:02:02,456 --> 00:02:03,874
To these girls.
41
00:02:11,298 --> 00:02:14,468
[indistinct chatter]
42
00:02:21,683 --> 00:02:23,685
[Aunt]
Blessed day, girls, let's move it along.
43
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,649
Would you stop pacing?
You're making me nervous.
44
00:02:28,732 --> 00:02:30,525
- [whispering] Chill.
- How?
45
00:02:30,609 --> 00:02:33,278
Why? What's going on?
46
00:02:33,654 --> 00:02:35,739
The Aunts decide our contenders today.
47
00:02:35,822 --> 00:02:37,491
[Shunammite]
Two to three suitors each, usually.
48
00:02:37,574 --> 00:02:39,701
Then house visits.
Then weddings.
49
00:02:39,785 --> 00:02:41,578
Then prison for the rest of our lives.
50
00:02:42,871 --> 00:02:44,247
Don't say that.
51
00:02:44,831 --> 00:02:46,917
- Why not?
- [Shunammite sighs]
52
00:02:47,376 --> 00:02:49,127
Whatever, it's in God's hands now.
53
00:02:49,211 --> 00:02:50,462
Or the Aunts'.
54
00:02:50,545 --> 00:02:52,005
Is there a difference?
55
00:02:52,089 --> 00:02:53,965
[Aunt Lydia clearing throat]
56
00:03:05,227 --> 00:03:07,229
[* soft, solemn music playing]
57
00:03:38,301 --> 00:03:40,262
[Aunt Lydia] While I may be
a mystery to them,
58
00:03:40,345 --> 00:03:43,140
these girls are no mystery to me.
59
00:03:43,807 --> 00:03:45,183
Let's begin, shall we?
60
00:03:45,267 --> 00:03:47,185
Jehosheba wants power.
61
00:03:47,269 --> 00:03:48,895
Hulda, security.
62
00:03:48,979 --> 00:03:52,649
But Agnes, well,
I'm not sure what she wants.
63
00:03:52,732 --> 00:03:54,276
Not yet.
64
00:03:54,359 --> 00:03:57,112
Their fates are in my mortal hands.
65
00:03:57,195 --> 00:03:58,697
An unmarried woman,
66
00:03:58,780 --> 00:04:02,701
picking husbands for each girl
who passes through these halls.
67
00:04:02,784 --> 00:04:04,786
The irony is not lost on me.
68
00:04:04,870 --> 00:04:06,538
[school bell ringing]
69
00:04:06,621 --> 00:04:08,498
School canceled again, I take it?
70
00:04:08,582 --> 00:04:10,709
This is the fourth time this month.
71
00:04:10,834 --> 00:04:12,836
Fine by me. My classroom's a mess.
72
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:14,546
I could use a day to clean it up.
73
00:04:20,177 --> 00:04:22,304
Whose turn was it
to replace the coffee?
74
00:04:22,387 --> 00:04:25,682
- Vivian's.
- And Vivian is where?
75
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:26,850
[door opens]
76
00:04:28,059 --> 00:04:29,895
You're late. Did you bring some coffee?
77
00:04:29,978 --> 00:04:33,023
Something's happening.
There are some men outside.
78
00:04:33,106 --> 00:04:34,858
- They're armed.
- That's weird.
79
00:04:34,941 --> 00:04:36,943
Keith, they want to talk to you.
80
00:04:37,027 --> 00:04:38,445
To me?
81
00:04:38,528 --> 00:04:40,113
Mm-hmm.
82
00:04:40,197 --> 00:04:41,656
Okay.
83
00:04:44,659 --> 00:04:45,744
What's happening?
84
00:04:48,163 --> 00:04:49,956

- [hushed, indistinct chatter]
- [man] Keep up!
95

Keep up, let's go.
96
00:05:32,999 --> 00:05:34,584
Please remove any items:
97
00:05:34,668 --> 00:05:37,879
jewelry, cellphone,
whatever's on your person.
98
00:05:37,963 --> 00:05:39,005
Handbags.

100
00:05:41,633 --> 00:05:43,260

[jewelry clinking, clattering]
102
00:05:50,308 --> 00:05:52,602
Don't worry, ma'am.
You'll get your belongings back soon.

Where are you taking me?
109
00:06:12,247 --> 00:06:13,748
- [man] Keep moving, keep moving.
- Hey!
110
00:06:13,832 --> 00:06:15,166
[man] Hey, you two!
111

[both whimper]
112
00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:18,253
"Susan Snyder"?
113
00:06:19,421 --> 00:06:21,006
You're the pregnant one?
114
00:06:22,799 --> 00:06:25,302
No husband, right?
115
00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:26,887
I have a partner.
116
00:06:26,970 --> 00:06:28,179
Take her to the box store.
117
00:06:28,263 --> 00:06:30,181
Excuse me, where are you…
118
00:06:30,265 --> 00:06:32,392
Don't. There's nothing you can do.
119

- [man] Come with me.
- [Susan] Keep your hands off me!

- [woman] Where are you taking her?
- [Lydia] What is going on?

What's he doing?
Just because she's pregnant?
122

- That doesn't make any sense at all.
- Just, shh!
123

[Aunt Lydia] It quickly became clear
there had been a coup.

[indistinct radio chatter]
125

- That's promising.
- Mm-hmm.

Commander Maddox is the man
who gave alcohol to Becka at the Ball,

and you intend to reward
his terrible behavior?

It's left Becka without any other options.

- Unfortunately, such a public…
- Vidala,

00:08:11,157 --> 00:08:13,451
perhaps you should administer to Hulda.

00:10:07,899 --> 00:10:08,900
Oh, my God.
179
00:10:08,983 --> 00:10:11,736
- [whimpering, protesting]
- [man] Move it!
180
00:10:14,781 --> 00:10:16,366
Where are they taking them?
181
00:10:16,449 --> 00:10:17,742
- [man] Come with me.
- [woman] No!
182
00:10:17,826 --> 00:10:19,327
Fuck if I know.
183
00:10:19,410 --> 00:10:20,995
[breathing heavily]
184
00:10:22,330 --> 00:10:24,332
[Plums quietly chattering]
185
00:10:31,965 --> 00:10:34,092
My mother still isn't speaking to me.
186
00:10:34,175 --> 00:10:37,011
Not since what happened at the Ball.
187
00:10:37,095 --> 00:10:38,263
That wasn't your fault.
188
00:10:38,346 --> 00:10:39,639
[whispering] Who cares?
189
00:10:39,722 --> 00:10:42,392
What if she winds up
with a Commander from the Colonies?
190
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:44,853
Then I wind up
with a Commander from the Colonies.
191
00:10:44,936 --> 00:10:47,772
Becka, do you know
that some of your friends
192
00:10:47,856 --> 00:10:51,359
put themselves in jeopardy
trying to save your reputation?
193
00:10:52,610 --> 00:10:54,320
From wicked girls.
194
00:10:54,737 --> 00:10:56,322
Jealous prune.
195
00:10:57,824 --> 00:10:59,159
What did she just call you?
196
00:10:59,242 --> 00:11:00,577
A prune.
197
00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:04,581
You know, like a Plum
that never turns Green.
198
00:11:07,917 --> 00:11:08,918
[door opens]
199
00:11:15,425 --> 00:11:17,427
Girls, good news.
200
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:23,391
Our dear Hulda has been
touched by His divine hand.
201
00:11:23,474 --> 00:11:27,145
She's officially a Green
and thus eligible this season.
202
00:11:27,478 --> 00:11:28,980
You may celebrate.
203
00:11:29,063 --> 00:11:31,065
[all applauding]
204
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:33,860
That's enough.
205
00:11:35,111 --> 00:11:38,406
Now, Hulda, God has
provided you the opportunity
206
00:11:38,489 --> 00:11:42,327
to step into your womanhood
with an important lesson.
207
00:11:45,413 --> 00:11:49,667
What do you think
the punishment ought to be
208
00:11:49,751 --> 00:11:52,879
for a girl who uses violence
upon another girl?
209
00:11:54,172 --> 00:11:56,341
[* solemn, tense music playing]
210
00:12:01,054 --> 00:12:04,474
Such a girl ought to have
her hands bound and whipped.
211
00:12:10,813 --> 00:12:12,065
[Aunt Vidala] Very well.
212
00:12:15,735 --> 00:12:16,819
[rod striking]
213
00:12:25,787 --> 00:12:26,788
Hulda?
214
00:12:27,789 --> 00:12:30,500
Hold Shunammite's arms
down on the desk.
215
00:12:30,917 --> 00:12:32,252
[Shunammite inhales]
216
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,842
[* tense music playing]
217
00:12:45,306 --> 00:12:46,432
[Shunammite screams]
218
00:12:46,516 --> 00:12:47,850
Hulda!
219
00:12:48,977 --> 00:12:50,270
[breathing shakily]
220
00:12:57,068 --> 00:12:58,736
- [rod smacking]
- [Shunammite screams]
221
00:12:59,112 --> 00:13:00,488
[class breathing heavily]
222
00:13:01,489 --> 00:13:02,573
[rod smacking]
223
00:13:07,578 --> 00:13:10,623
[* somber music playing]
224
00:13:13,084 --> 00:13:14,127
[muffled crying]
225
00:13:14,669 --> 00:13:18,172
[Aunt Lydia] Teaching these girls
was like a recipe for a tough steak:
226
00:13:19,716 --> 00:13:23,720
hammer it with a mallet,
then marinate and tenderize.
227
00:13:27,015 --> 00:13:28,474
- [screaming]
- [guards shouting]
228
00:13:28,558 --> 00:13:30,601
[Aunt Lydia]
I had seen it work before
229
00:13:30,685 --> 00:13:32,979
on myself and other women.
230
00:13:33,062 --> 00:13:34,522
[woman 1]
Hands off her, you asshole.
231
00:13:34,605 --> 00:13:36,274
[women crying]
232
00:13:36,357 --> 00:13:38,901
- [woman 2] No!
- [man 1] Get down!
233
00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:41,988
- [man 2] Pass it down the line.
- [man 1] Get up, move!
234
00:13:43,406 --> 00:13:45,283
Everyone takes one.
235
00:13:46,367 --> 00:13:49,037
Take this and pass it down the line.
236
00:13:49,579 --> 00:13:51,497
One slice!
237
00:13:56,419 --> 00:13:58,046
[woman 3] Kill us already!
238
00:13:58,546 --> 00:14:00,590
[Aunt Lydia]
Some wolfed and guzzled,
239
00:14:00,673 --> 00:14:03,176
but I made my portion last
as long as possible.
240
00:14:04,469 --> 00:14:08,056
Chewing and swallowing
distracts from mental wheel-spinning.
241
00:14:08,806 --> 00:14:11,476
Also, it passes the time.
242
00:14:13,478 --> 00:14:15,646
[* bleak, ominous music playing]
243
00:14:15,730 --> 00:14:18,399
- [urinating]
- [man] I said get up. Get up!
244
00:14:26,199 --> 00:14:29,452
[whimpering]
245
00:14:31,412 --> 00:14:32,580
[woman] [softly] It's okay.
246
00:14:32,663 --> 00:14:36,125
[* bleak, ominous music continues]
247
00:14:38,419 --> 00:14:40,046
[softly weeping]
248
00:14:44,425 --> 00:14:46,427
[indistinct radio chatter]
249
00:14:53,810 --> 00:14:55,061
I'm sorry.
250
00:14:56,813 --> 00:14:58,106
About what?
251
00:14:59,982 --> 00:15:01,859
The coffee.
252
00:15:01,943 --> 00:15:03,361
I forgot it was my turn.
253
00:15:04,821 --> 00:15:08,741
[softly chuckles] What I wouldn't do
for a cup of coffee right now.
254
00:15:10,243 --> 00:15:11,327
With milk.
255
00:15:11,410 --> 00:15:13,746
[sighs] Warm milk.
256
00:15:13,830 --> 00:15:15,289
Mm. [chuckles]
257
00:15:25,591 --> 00:15:28,010
You were a damn fine teacher, Lydia.
258
00:15:31,055 --> 00:15:32,473
Thank you.
259
00:15:34,392 --> 00:15:35,768
So were you.
260
00:15:37,812 --> 00:15:40,022
[* soft, solemn music playing]
261
00:15:47,530 --> 00:15:50,158
[indistinct radio chatter]
262
00:15:50,241 --> 00:15:53,619
- [man 1] Here, pass it down.
- [man 2] One bottle each.
263
00:15:53,703 --> 00:15:55,872
[man 1] Here, pass it around.
264
00:16:00,751 --> 00:16:03,087
[* soft, solemn music continues]
265
00:16:03,963 --> 00:16:06,465
[man 1] One slice, one bottle.
266
00:16:06,966 --> 00:16:10,845
- [woman 1] You need bread? Here.
- [woman 2] Pass it over here.
267
00:16:16,184 --> 00:16:17,476
[breathing heavily]
268
00:16:25,193 --> 00:16:27,528
I'm sorry about your friend.
269
00:16:30,406 --> 00:16:32,033
I'm sorry, too.
270
00:16:34,744 --> 00:16:36,913
[* somber music playing]
271
00:16:38,122 --> 00:16:41,000
I learned quickly
that having friends in Gilead
272
00:16:41,083 --> 00:16:42,793
was a liability.
273
00:16:42,877 --> 00:16:45,588
It would only bring pain and suffering.
274
00:16:45,671 --> 00:16:49,091
I've tried to pass this lesson
along to my girls.
275
00:16:49,175 --> 00:16:51,260
First my Handmaids,
276
00:16:51,344 --> 00:16:53,596
then my precious flowers.
277
00:16:53,679 --> 00:16:55,264
But it doesn't always stick.
278
00:16:56,891 --> 00:16:59,310
- [quiet chattering]
- [dishware clinking]
279
00:17:06,317 --> 00:17:07,777
Shu, how are your hands?
280
00:17:07,860 --> 00:17:08,861
Fine.
281
00:17:10,655 --> 00:17:13,282
I'd slap Jehosheba myself right now.
282
00:17:13,658 --> 00:17:17,203
I think maybe you guys should cool it
on the slapping for a while.
283
00:17:20,665 --> 00:17:22,875
[whispering] I heard some news
from the nurse's office.
284
00:17:25,086 --> 00:17:26,462
Penny's gone into labor.
285
00:17:27,463 --> 00:17:29,549
Oh, that's awesome!
286
00:17:29,632 --> 00:17:32,969
No, Hulda, it's too early. Right?
287
00:17:34,512 --> 00:17:38,224
This is her third pregnancy.
The others ended.
288
00:17:45,856 --> 00:17:48,943
Dear Lord, watch over
our friend Penny and her baby.
289
00:17:49,026 --> 00:17:50,778
Keep them safe.
290
00:17:50,861 --> 00:17:53,114
Offer them strength, healing, and hope.
291
00:17:53,197 --> 00:17:55,825
- Amen.
- [group] Amen.
292
00:17:56,826 --> 00:17:59,120
- [insects chirring]
- [victims whimpering]

- [kicking thuds]
- [yelps]

- [guard] Shut up. On your feet.
- Oh! Help!
296
00:18:05,084 --> 00:18:08,004
- No! Let go of me. Let go!
- [guard] Calm down.
297
00:18:08,087 --> 00:18:10,673
No! No!

[man]
Hey, step aside. Coming through.
302
00:18:30,860 --> 00:18:32,778
[Lydia] Oh, my God.
303
00:18:41,370 --> 00:18:42,622
Ow!
304
00:18:43,831 --> 00:18:47,251
[Aunt Lydia] Misogynists who
openly disdain women?
305
00:18:47,335 --> 00:18:49,295
One needn't fear them.
306
00:18:49,378 --> 00:18:53,132
But the men who understand
the power of women,
307
00:18:53,215 --> 00:18:56,802
who want to control it instead of deny it,
308
00:18:56,886 --> 00:18:59,013
there is no one more terrifying.
309
00:18:59,096 --> 00:19:00,890
I can sit by myself!
310
00:19:02,475 --> 00:19:03,476
God!
311
00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:07,146
[speaker] Good evening.
Or good morning. I've lost track.
312
00:19:08,522 --> 00:19:10,024
I'm Commander Judd
313
00:19:10,107 --> 00:19:11,484
of the Sons of Jacob.
314
00:19:12,485 --> 00:19:15,488
And I have been tasked with
the so-called "women's sphere."
315
00:19:15,571 --> 00:19:18,949
That is, determining where each of you
shall be placed in this new order.
316
00:19:19,033 --> 00:19:20,618
What order?
317
00:19:20,701 --> 00:19:22,745
They haven't told us anything.
318
00:19:24,580 --> 00:19:26,874
[distant shouting, screaming]
319
00:19:29,835 --> 00:19:31,253
Fifty-eight.
320
00:19:31,337 --> 00:19:33,214
You mean my age? Yes.
321
00:19:33,297 --> 00:19:36,133
- Never married?
- No.
322
00:19:36,217 --> 00:19:37,593
Does that matter?
323
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:44,600
You had an abortion.
324
00:19:44,684 --> 00:19:46,644
[* tense music playing]
325
00:19:48,062 --> 00:19:49,647
I was very young.
326
00:19:51,315 --> 00:19:53,401
You're aware that this form
of person-murder
327
00:19:53,484 --> 00:19:55,319
is now punishable by death?
328
00:19:55,444 --> 00:19:58,197
And that the law is retroactive.
329
00:19:59,156 --> 00:20:00,700
Well, I love children.
330
00:20:00,783 --> 00:20:02,618
That's why I wanted to teach.
331
00:20:02,702 --> 00:20:05,579
Ah, yes. Women have been told for so long
332
00:20:05,663 --> 00:20:09,083
that they can achieve equality
in the professional and public arenas.
333
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,336
I don't expect them
to welcome the segregation,
334
00:20:12,461 --> 00:20:14,422
but they will have to adjust.
335
00:20:15,715 --> 00:20:17,508
It is God's will after all.
336
00:20:18,384 --> 00:20:21,512
[Aunt Lydia]
Surviving these men requires patience.
337
00:20:22,263 --> 00:20:24,348
And allies.
338
00:20:24,432 --> 00:20:26,142
Wherever you can find them.
339
00:20:27,518 --> 00:20:28,728
Well…
340
00:20:29,729 --> 00:20:32,189
I for one commend
the work you are doing.
341
00:20:32,857 --> 00:20:34,775
[chuckles]
342
00:20:34,859 --> 00:20:37,319
You would be surprised how many
women have said that same thing
343
00:20:37,403 --> 00:20:38,738
sitting in that chair,
344
00:20:38,821 --> 00:20:40,781
hoping to improve their outcomes.
345
00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:45,202
I do have a suggestion.
346
00:20:45,286 --> 00:20:48,038
One that might improve your own outcome.
347
00:20:51,917 --> 00:20:53,544
What is it that you suggest?
348
00:20:56,797 --> 00:20:59,467
If you believe society is best served
349
00:20:59,550 --> 00:21:02,011
by separate spheres for men and women,
350
00:21:02,094 --> 00:21:04,764
shouldn't they be truly separate?
351
00:21:05,473 --> 00:21:08,976
Surely you have better things
to do than concern yourself
352
00:21:09,059 --> 00:21:12,521
with the petty details of all of this.
353
00:21:12,605 --> 00:21:16,817
Who is going to teach the girls
to be women?
354
00:21:16,901 --> 00:21:18,819
And the women to be better women?
355
00:21:18,903 --> 00:21:20,154
Women of God?
356
00:21:21,155 --> 00:21:24,366
Delegation is but one of His many virtues.
357
00:21:25,284 --> 00:21:27,286
[* tense music continues]
358
00:21:32,374 --> 00:21:34,418
Have there been any inquiries?
359
00:21:35,002 --> 00:21:39,799
No, but what if someone inquires
about Agnes MacKenzie's lineage?
360
00:21:39,882 --> 00:21:41,759
She's the daughter of a Handmaid.
361
00:21:41,842 --> 00:21:43,385
There's nothing shameful in that.
362
00:21:43,469 --> 00:21:45,179
Not just any Handmaid.
363
00:21:46,347 --> 00:21:48,516
We are not here to judge.
364
00:21:48,599 --> 00:21:50,226
Let that be God's province.
365
00:21:50,309 --> 00:21:53,896
Our job is to prevent
the possibility of inbreeding,
366
00:21:53,979 --> 00:21:56,357
so the children of Gilead may thrive.
367
00:21:56,899 --> 00:21:58,609
Are we all in concert?
368
00:21:58,734 --> 00:22:00,069
Rowing together now?
369
00:22:01,862 --> 00:22:02,863
[knocking on glass]
370
00:22:04,031 --> 00:22:05,032
- Oh.
- Blessed day.
371
00:22:05,115 --> 00:22:09,119
Blessed day, Commander Judd.
What an unexpected surprise.
372
00:22:10,746 --> 00:22:11,872
Ah.
373
00:22:13,457 --> 00:22:15,543
Is there something I can help you with?
374
00:22:17,586 --> 00:22:19,505
With the new offensive against Mayday,
375
00:22:19,588 --> 00:22:22,383
some of our Commanders
have been shuttled to the front.
376
00:22:24,510 --> 00:22:28,264
So… these men should be
taken out of the running
377
00:22:28,347 --> 00:22:29,640
until next season.
378
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:32,935
Thank you, Commander.
379
00:22:33,018 --> 00:22:37,106
Your guidance is essential
as we match our girls.
380
00:22:39,149 --> 00:22:41,569
Commander, how is your dear wife?
381
00:22:41,652 --> 00:22:44,238
I hear she's experiencing complications.
382
00:22:46,031 --> 00:22:49,994
It's hard to… to be at home
watching it all unfold.
383
00:22:50,870 --> 00:22:53,664
Come now. There's no need
to distract yourself
384
00:22:53,747 --> 00:22:55,499
with these women's issues.
385
00:22:55,583 --> 00:22:57,042
Rest your mind.
386
00:22:57,918 --> 00:22:59,295
Yes.
387
00:22:59,378 --> 00:23:01,088
Perhaps you're right, Aunt Lydia.
388
00:23:05,050 --> 00:23:06,677
[Aunt Lydia] I will handle this.
389
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,847
After all these years,
don't you trust me?
390
00:23:12,933 --> 00:23:16,145
[door opens, closes]
391
00:23:16,854 --> 00:23:18,564
- [PA system chimes]
- [Aunt Gabbana] Attention, girls,
392
00:23:18,647 --> 00:23:21,317
Physical Education
will conclude at two bells.
393
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,028
Do not forget to stretch
after exerting yourself.
394
00:23:24,111 --> 00:23:27,781
…forty-eight, 49, 50. Okay.
395
00:23:29,074 --> 00:23:32,536
Agnes, your turn. Agnes?
396
00:23:34,121 --> 00:23:36,165
Sorry. I was distracted.
397
00:23:36,248 --> 00:23:38,292
No kidding. This sucks.
398
00:23:38,375 --> 00:23:39,710
In a few weeks, you'll all be gone,
399
00:23:39,793 --> 00:23:41,587
and I'll still be here by myself.
400
00:23:42,379 --> 00:23:44,256
I didn't mean to get my period.
401
00:23:44,340 --> 00:23:45,591
Who cares?
402
00:23:45,674 --> 00:23:47,635
Who wants to get married, anyway?
403
00:23:50,137 --> 00:23:52,640
Pray, Becka, you're kind of
going off the deep end.
404
00:23:52,723 --> 00:23:54,683
[Shunammite]
After what happened at the Ball,
405
00:23:54,767 --> 00:23:57,436
you should be throwing yourself
at the mercy of Aunt Lydia.
406
00:23:58,062 --> 00:24:00,898
Maybe I'll get lucky,
and I won't get any offers.
407
00:24:00,981 --> 00:24:02,441
Then I can stay here with you, Shu.
408
00:24:02,524 --> 00:24:04,401
What is wrong with you?
409
00:24:04,485 --> 00:24:05,903
This is our whole lives!
410
00:24:05,986 --> 00:24:08,238
Some people would give
anything for the right match.
411
00:24:09,281 --> 00:24:10,324
What?
412
00:24:11,075 --> 00:24:13,786
What? Ag… Agnes?
413
00:24:15,245 --> 00:24:16,413
Agnes?
414
00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:21,460
[Plums quietly chattering]
415
00:24:27,633 --> 00:24:29,051
I'm in love.
416
00:24:31,011 --> 00:24:32,304
And it's horrible.
417
00:24:36,934 --> 00:24:37,935
Who?
418
00:24:43,524 --> 00:24:45,651
[whispering] Garth.
419
00:24:45,734 --> 00:24:47,569
My Guardian.
420
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,157
How do you know?
421
00:24:52,241 --> 00:24:53,617
That you're in love with him?
422
00:24:58,205 --> 00:25:00,916
Any time I'm near him, I feel hot.
423
00:25:01,792 --> 00:25:03,669
My skin, like my cheeks.
424
00:25:03,752 --> 00:25:04,920
[both chuckle]
425
00:25:05,004 --> 00:25:06,630
And then in my belly.
426
00:25:08,590 --> 00:25:10,968
Have you ever felt that way before?
427
00:25:13,178 --> 00:25:14,263
No.
428
00:25:15,931 --> 00:25:17,057
But I'm happy for you.
429
00:25:19,059 --> 00:25:20,728
He's not even eligible.
430
00:25:24,106 --> 00:25:25,691
True, but…
431
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,362
at least you can feel
this way once, right?
432
00:25:32,197 --> 00:25:33,991
No matter what, that's a blessing.
433

436
00:25:49,423 --> 00:25:52,259
shouldn't you be on your way to class?
437
00:25:53,177 --> 00:25:54,762
Yes, Aunt Lydia.
438
00:25:55,888 --> 00:25:57,473
Can I help you with something?
439
00:25:57,556 --> 00:25:59,558
[indistinct chatter]
440
00:26:07,858 --> 00:26:09,985
Yes, Aunt Lydia.
441
00:26:10,069 --> 00:26:11,236
Maybe.
442
00:26:12,071 --> 00:26:13,572
I have a question.
443
00:26:13,655 --> 00:26:14,782
Or a request.
444
00:26:14,865 --> 00:26:16,408
A request?
445
00:26:16,492 --> 00:26:18,911
Very respectfully, Aunt Lydia. Very.
446
00:26:19,578 --> 00:26:21,455
Alright, then.
447
00:26:27,252 --> 00:26:28,253
My Guardian,
448
00:26:28,337 --> 00:26:30,214

on the bus that day

- when Mayday…
- I am aware.
450
00:26:32,758 --> 00:26:34,718
He's soon to be made a Commander.
451
00:26:35,302 --> 00:26:38,180
I thought perhaps you might
make him eligible…
452
00:26:39,473 --> 00:26:40,599
this season.
453
00:26:40,682 --> 00:26:43,143
Maybe God protected him for that reason.
454
00:26:49,358 --> 00:26:50,442
[sighs]
455
00:26:50,526 --> 00:26:52,903
I shall think the matter over.
456
00:26:54,404 --> 00:26:56,073
Thank you, Aunt Lydia.
457
00:26:57,116 --> 00:26:58,867
For your graciousness.
458
00:26:58,951 --> 00:26:59,952
Praise be.
459
00:27:00,035 --> 00:27:03,664

Late girls are difficult girls.
460
00:27:03,747 --> 00:27:05,666
Go in grace.

[Aunt Lydia] This is the last day
of childhood for these girls.
462

Now, if you are to join our cause,
469
00:28:13,859 --> 00:28:15,819
you'll have to prove you mean it.
470
00:28:15,903 --> 00:28:18,030
Are you prepared to do that?
471
00:28:18,572 --> 00:28:19,740
Y-Yes.

He will be. Soon enough.

Yes. And other Commanders have
been serving Gilead far longer.

Though He brings grief,
He will show compassion.

bring affliction to anyone.

00:34:06,086 --> 00:34:08,213
In so many ways, dear Aunt Lydia.
539
00:34:12,467 --> 00:34:14,344
Your price is above rubies.
540
00:34:15,971 --> 00:34:16,972
Praise be.
541
00:34:18,139 --> 00:34:19,641
Praise be.
542
00:34:31,945 --> 00:34:35,240
[Aunt Lydia]
Was I a phoenix, rising from the ashes?
543
00:34:35,323 --> 00:34:37,367
Or was I a cockroach?
544
00:34:37,450 --> 00:34:39,703
I wasn't sure anymore.
545
00:34:39,786 --> 00:34:40,996
But I was alive.
546
00:34:42,038 --> 00:34:44,082
[Commander Judd] Ms. Clements. Come in.
547
00:34:48,420 --> 00:34:51,589
We must construct a uniform
for our new disciples.
548
00:34:51,673 --> 00:34:53,466
Your new disciples.
549
00:34:55,969 --> 00:34:57,304
Mine?
550
00:34:57,846 --> 00:35:01,641
I thought you might enjoy
the privilege of weighing in.
551
00:35:04,811 --> 00:35:06,813
[* soft, solemn music playing]
552
00:35:19,951 --> 00:35:21,328
This one.
553
00:35:23,913 --> 00:35:25,957
[Commander Judd] It's a little rough.
554
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,669
Might not be the most
comfortable to the touch.
555
00:35:29,753 --> 00:35:32,797
No, I don't imagine it will be.
556
00:35:38,386 --> 00:35:41,139
[Aunt Lydia]
My biggest gripe with the old world
557
00:35:41,222 --> 00:35:43,224
was the emphasis on comfort.
558
00:35:43,308 --> 00:35:44,309
Ease.
559
00:35:44,392 --> 00:35:45,769
Convenience.
560
00:35:45,852 --> 00:35:48,730
We had all become entitled little brats.
561
00:35:48,813 --> 00:35:50,815
[* soft, solemn music continues]
562
00:35:58,448 --> 00:36:00,909
[Aunt Estee]
Penny’s child is with God now.
563
00:36:00,992 --> 00:36:04,913
Blessed are those that mourn,
for they shall be comforted.
564
00:36:05,455 --> 00:36:08,208
[group quietly weeping]
565
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,797
[Aunt Lydia] How quickly people forget
that nothing good comes
566
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,841
without a little grinding
down of the tooth.
567
00:36:16,925 --> 00:36:18,426
[girl] Poor Penny.
568
00:36:18,510 --> 00:36:21,304
[Aunt Lydia] For a seedling must fight
its way through the dirt
569
00:36:21,388 --> 00:36:23,014
to meet the sun.
570
00:36:25,141 --> 00:36:27,143
[Plums chattering]
571
00:36:29,896 --> 00:36:32,107
Hulda, I made this for you.
572
00:36:34,275 --> 00:36:35,276
Really?
573
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,028
No. I made it for myself.
574
00:36:37,112 --> 00:36:38,113
For good luck.
575
00:36:38,196 --> 00:36:40,615
But as you wait for your contenders,
I thought you might need it.
576
00:36:41,825 --> 00:36:43,326
Just don't rub out all the good luck.
577
00:36:45,912 --> 00:36:47,580
Well, that's me.
578
00:36:47,664 --> 00:36:50,583
I have my first Green appointment
today with the tailor.
579
00:36:50,667 --> 00:36:52,836
And then soon,
your dad to get my teeth whitened.
580
00:36:52,919 --> 00:36:54,045
Bye!
581
00:36:55,588 --> 00:36:58,258
[* soft, dramatic music playing]
582
00:37:05,932 --> 00:37:07,934
[vehicle approaching]
583
00:37:13,565 --> 00:37:14,816
Blessed day, Miss Agnes.
584
00:37:17,110 --> 00:37:18,194
See you tomorrow.
585
00:37:20,196 --> 00:37:21,364
See ya.
586
00:37:31,207 --> 00:37:33,543
[* soft, dramatic music continues]
587
00:37:36,045 --> 00:37:38,590
[Aunt Estee] The Lord has
challenged us today, hasn’t He?
588
00:37:38,673 --> 00:37:40,967
[Daisy] I pray we are worthy of His gifts.
589
00:37:41,050 --> 00:37:43,470
Even if they don't seem
like gifts at first.
590
00:37:45,388 --> 00:37:48,141
I know us Aunts aren't always
generous with praise,
591
00:37:48,224 --> 00:37:52,604
but it's worth mentioning
you have been an exemplary Pearl Girl.
592
00:37:52,687 --> 00:37:54,272
Today and all the days.
593
00:37:54,355 --> 00:37:56,441
I'm grateful for the chance to serve.
594
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,195
Especially after
my previous indiscretions.
595
00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:02,405
It takes time to adjust
to the ways of Gilead.
596
00:38:03,281 --> 00:38:04,783
I made mistakes, too.
597
00:38:06,075 --> 00:38:07,786
You're not from Gilead?
598
00:38:10,413 --> 00:38:11,998
Where are you from?
599
00:38:12,540 --> 00:38:14,417
Well, we're all of the same earth.
600
00:38:14,501 --> 00:38:15,668
Dust to dust.
601
00:38:16,336 --> 00:38:18,463
But how did you end up in Gilead?
602
00:38:19,088 --> 00:38:20,840
How did you become an Aunt?
603
00:38:21,508 --> 00:38:23,885
[Aunt Estee]
Well, dear, you need to have a calling.
604
00:38:23,968 --> 00:38:26,346
I heard mine, and I answered.
605
00:38:27,305 --> 00:38:30,391
I guess you could say
I was the original Pearl Girl.
606
00:38:30,475 --> 00:38:32,477
[* curious music playing]
607
00:38:34,145 --> 00:38:35,855
I'll take it from here.
608
00:38:43,780 --> 00:38:46,658
We've checked all the bloodlines.
609
00:38:46,741 --> 00:38:50,912
Our matches are as clean
as a wooden whistle.
610
00:38:50,995 --> 00:38:52,831
[Aunts] Yes, Aunt Lydia.
611
00:38:52,914 --> 00:38:55,208
[Aunt Lydia]
I believe a celebration is in order.
612
00:38:55,291 --> 00:38:58,211
Each season brings its own obstacle,
613
00:38:58,294 --> 00:39:02,257
and this season has been
particularly stimulating.
614
00:39:02,799 --> 00:39:05,927
May our Greens move forward
into holy matrimony
615
00:39:06,010 --> 00:39:07,637
as God intended.
616
00:39:08,555 --> 00:39:10,765
Blessed be the fruit.
617
00:39:10,849 --> 00:39:12,350
[Aunts] May the Lord open.
618
00:39:18,523 --> 00:39:21,860
It is now time to tell
the girls' families.
619
00:39:23,736 --> 00:39:26,865
Oh, what delicious news
they shall receive.
620
00:39:58,813 --> 00:40:02,108
[Aunt Lydia] We have done our best
to teach these girls.
621
00:40:02,191 --> 00:40:03,735
To prepare them.
622
00:40:04,652 --> 00:40:08,907
But what they don't know yet
is that life is long.
623
00:40:09,616 --> 00:40:12,911
The real brutality
is when it asks you to endure
624
00:40:13,494 --> 00:40:17,665
knowing what you have done,
and what has been done while you stood by.
625
00:40:18,833 --> 00:40:21,544
But what choice do we have?
626
00:40:21,628 --> 00:40:24,339
Enduring is the only way through.
627
00:40:25,506 --> 00:40:26,507
[sighs]
628
00:40:28,134 --> 00:40:31,012
I control the women's side
of their enterprise
629
00:40:31,095 --> 00:40:32,430
with an iron fist
630
00:40:32,513 --> 00:40:35,600
in a leather glove in a woolen mitten.
631
00:40:36,434 --> 00:40:41,105
I made a promise to teach
these girls to be women.
632
00:40:41,189 --> 00:40:43,399
Women of God.
633
00:40:55,370 --> 00:40:57,914
I made another promise.
634
00:40:57,997 --> 00:41:00,875
After what happened
to my girls at Jezebel's,
635
00:41:00,959 --> 00:41:02,961
after Boston fell,
636
00:41:03,044 --> 00:41:06,714
after the sting of the noose
around my neck began to wear off,
637
00:41:07,090 --> 00:41:10,093
I vowed to document everything.
638
00:41:10,176 --> 00:41:11,678
And everyone.
639
00:41:12,762 --> 00:41:16,224
Yes, Aunts were afforded
the special privilege
640
00:41:16,307 --> 00:41:18,226
of being allowed to write.
641
00:41:18,309 --> 00:41:20,520
The only women in Gilead who could.
642
00:41:21,396 --> 00:41:23,564
But what was I writing?
643
00:41:23,648 --> 00:41:27,276
Recording the crimes of weak men
and far too many women?
644
00:41:28,403 --> 00:41:30,571
That was not allowed.
645
00:41:30,655 --> 00:41:32,407
That could bring down these men
646
00:41:32,490 --> 00:41:34,492
chosen by God to lead us.
647
00:41:49,674 --> 00:41:51,551
[car door shuts]
648
00:42:09,569 --> 00:42:13,197
[Aunt Lydia] The corrupt
and blood-smeared fingerprints of the past
649
00:42:13,281 --> 00:42:16,534
must be wiped away
for the morally pure generation
650
00:42:16,617 --> 00:42:18,453
that is surely about to arrive.
651
00:42:20,121 --> 00:42:22,373
But among these bloody fingerprints
652
00:42:22,457 --> 00:42:24,876
are those made by ourselves,
653
00:42:24,959 --> 00:42:27,420
and they can't be wiped away so easily.
654
00:42:29,088 --> 00:42:31,174
May God protect these girls.
655
00:42:32,508 --> 00:42:34,719
Because I'm not sure I can.
656
00:43:56,425 --> 00:43:58,427
[insects chirring]
657
00:44:00,429 --> 00:44:01,472
[rooster crowing]
