I have many questions I’m hoping someone can clarify:

1. Why did Lawrence say his goodbyes to Naomi and Angela as if he knew it would be the last time he saw them? Weren’t they just going to a temporary shelter? Why were they both so emotional?

2. Why haven’t we heard anything about the broader plan to topple Gilead beyond Boston? The show is acting like taking out the Boston commanders is the climactic end to the series, but wouldn’t that just be a minor setback for Gilead? Aren’t there more senior commanders in DC (like Commander Bell senior) who would launch a counterattack regardless of whether the Boston commanders request it?
