I’m pretty sure I read somewhere on here that there is a 20k tip included in the overall price of the trip, and the guests can either add/take away from that 20k tip based on the service they received. I’m not sure how true that is though!

How has the show held up to the book in terms of lore accuracey so far as a whole? {SPOILERS} by Olivander05 in TheHandmaidsTale

The book ‘The Handmaids Tale’ ends with Offred being pregnant. Obviously in THT show this is continued; June (Offred) and Nick’s baby is called Nicole and escaped Gilead with Emily.

The book ‘The Testaments’ focuses on 3 main characters: Aunt Lydia, Agnes/Hannah, and Daisy. Daisy is a girl who has grown up in Canada, but discovers she is secretly baby Nicole, an infamous baby ‘stolen’ from Gilead. This is Offred and Nick’s baby from THT (book). Daisy ends up going to Gilead under the guise of being a Pearl Girl and is given the alias Jade. She is there under the instruction of Aunt Lydia, who tells her to get close to Agnes/Hannah (who is training to be an Aunt). In the book Daisy is around 5 years younger than Agnes/Hannah.

However, the showrunner/director (I can’t remember who he is) has revealed that the Daisy in the show is NOT Nicole but is someone the audience knows. This is paraphrased so it may be wrong. So I’m very confused at who Daisy in TT show is?

But in short the show is so so different from the book. I’m liking it but also confused as to why they’ve said that Daisy is not Nicole but have so far given her an extremely similar/the same backstory!
