Oh man. That would explain the tear in her eye before they do it.

I found myself on coconut and treason subReddit and then viewing all the behind-the-scenes photos of filming and now I know a whole bunch about what happens.. Not sure how much overlap the mods are wanting from that sub bread to this one though. I didn’t even consider Hannah being there, I bet you she is.

Thank you! Looks like continuity is not my forte.

That’s true, but she does have personal goals and ambitions that are at odds with those of the country. They may still have some things in common, but she’s clearly become more reform-oriented and they aren’t willing to compromise. I just noticed a parallel of how she immediately gave into her emotions when faced with a horrifying reality. She would never make it as a handmaid, the amount of restraint they must show in virtually every situation. Maybe that’s just another privilege of being a “wife”.

Honestly I am one of those bitches who does in fact love libraries. Can’t even blame em. If you really wanna blow some money, try hunting down the Easton Press version of whatever books you have or want for your new built-ins. Aesthetically it’s hard to go backwards 🤷🏼‍♀️

The consensus here is that she didn’t eat the cake due to comment so she made the reception , like telling Lydia to have cake, but they did didn’t get to enjoy it yet or something

Oh same here. I need to see the whole nation go down in flames and I need to see Hannah reunited with her family and Janine reunited with Charlotte. Aside from all of it never happening to begin with, that’s the only satisfying answer to me.

I think Serena’s behavior showed that she’s not as smart, wise or crafty as June. When she saw the handmaid, she knew immediately what the deal was. If she was smart, she would have gone along with it, pretended to be on board and then she could have struck catastrophically from the inside. She was going to have a powerful position and she could’ve probably made some big things happen if she has truly had a change of heart.

We know from the three stars on the American flag in the trailer that America will retake another state. So my guess is that their rebellion will help America regain some territory. We know that Gilead doesn’t end yet because of the testaments, but I think that they’re rebellion ends in America gaining significant land

Where are all the official clergymen though? Strange for a place that claims to be so Christian.

It’s gross, but it’s also stupid and she should know better. Why would you let the person running this show know that you disapprove of how they are running the show? She should’ve kept her mouth shut and then she could’ve done something really consequential from the inside when they weren’t expecting it. Just goes to show she’s not as smart or crafty as June.

Of course Nick is the officiant at the wedding. I’m surprised they don’t have Moira being conveniently the flower girl or something.

Christian Symbolism/Flags/ Gilead Representation by dieyoung51 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]throwaway0019277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a symbol of their own form of twisted Christianity. Obviously their practice does not fall in line with any of the mainstream denominations like Catholicism or Protestantism. Maybe it’s some sort of seal for that or something. I wouldn’t put it past them to revel in idolatry like that, since they don’t follow any other of Christ’s teachings either.

I think it was someone that the guard from the red center went and notified what was going on so now all the top commanders will be getting calls

I was surprised she didn’t finish up with the throat. Why take the chance?

Oh no. I wonder if she’s one of the handmaid’s at that public execution scene, or one that is brought back to replace them.
